ICC Test Cricket Rankings – 2009 (team wise)

ICC ODI Cricket Rankings – 2009 (team wise)

As we can see and be joyful, to have some good news:

India has become the no.2 ODI team in ICC rankings after New Zealand beat Australia in 2nd ODI at Melbourne. South Africa is no.1 in the rankings with 125 points followed by India with 122 and then Australia with 121 points. India is leading the 5 – match ODI series against Sri Lanka 4-0 with just one match to go. After a 4-1 loss against South Africa, Australia is trailing 2-0 in the ODI series against New Zealand.

India has climbed to no.2 position in ODI rankings after it consecutively won 4 ODI matches against Sri Lanka. Australia’s poor performance in recent times has also helped India. Also, India has played brilliantly in recent times. Before the Sri Lanka series they won the ODI series against England.

India can be no.1 in ODI rankings soon as its just 3 points behind South Africa. Australia which was at no.1 a month ago has slipped to no.3.

India captain moves ahead of Chris Gayle following first ODI against Sri Lanka

South Africa’s AB de Villiers rejoins the top 10 batsmen rankings; Johan Botha breaks into top 20 bowlers after impressive series Down Under.

India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has reclaimed the top rank in the Reliance Mobile ICC Player Rankings for ODI batsmen from the West Indies Chris Gayle.

Dhoni’s 61 not out against Sri Lanka in his side’s first ODI of a five-match series has enabled the 27-year-old wicketkeeper-batsman to regain his place at the head of the table. There will be ample opportunity for Dhoni to put daylight between him and the chasing pack as the rest of the series unfolds in Colombo.

India’s Gautam Gambhir has climbed four places to claim the number 20 spot in the rankings. It is the first time the 27-year-old has been in the top-20 since August 2008 when he reached 19th place during a previous tour to Sri Lanka.

South Africa’s Jean-Paul Duminy and Hashim Amla have also made inroads on the table. Duminy who has had an exceptional series with the bat, in both Tests and ODIs, has climbed eight places to take 29th position while his team-mate Amla has risen a substantial 34 places after an impressive performance in Australia. Amla’s 97 in Perth and series average of 49.75 has pushed the 25-year-old right-handed batsman up to 37th place.
There has been no change in the top-ranked player in the Reliance Mobile ICC Player Rankings for ODI all-rounders, with Bangladesh’s Shakib Al Hasan still top of the table. However, Kallis has dropped out of the top five and has been replaced by Gayle.

South Africa is top of the ODI world as of 2nd February 2009

The Proteas’ 4-1 series win puts them ahead of Australia by a fraction of a ratings point but Ponting’s men have immediate chance to regain number-one place

Zimbabwe moves ahead of Ireland into 10th position

South Africa has gone to the top of the Reliance Mobile ICC ODI Championship table following its 39-run victory over Australia in Perth on Saturday.

The match may have been a dead rubber as far as that series was concerned with South Africa having already won three out of the previous four matches but there was still plenty at stake and Johan Botha can now claim to be captain of the highest-ranked side in the world.

The Proteas had been three ratings points behind Ricky Ponting’s men going into the fifth and final ODI of the series but now they move ahead by a fraction of a point and top the ladder for the first time since April 2008 when they briefly wrestled number-one spot from Australia’s grasp.
