The Indian is currently at 830 points, six more than Azam. Quinton de Kock is on third spot, followed by Virat Kohli and David Warner.
The 24-year-old batter has amassed 219 runs after missing the first two World Cup matches due to dengue.
India fast bowler Mohammed Siraj climbed to the top of the list for ODI bowlers on the back of his 10 wickets at the World Cup.
Shreyas Iyer also jumped 17 places to 18th overall on the list for ODI batters, with Pakistan opener Fakhar Zaman (up three spots to 11th) and Afghanistan counterpart Ibrahim Zadran (up six spots to 12th) making good ground.
