Team India has a chance to become number 1, ICC can announce that at any time
India vs England Test Series: The Test series between India and England is now in its final stages. There were four games in the series in which India retained the lead. Now it is the turn of the final match which will be played in Dharamshala from March 7th. The team for this has also been announced by BCCI with some changes being made. Meanwhile, the Indian team once again has a chance to become number one in the ICC Test rankings. This can be announced at any time.
Australia ranked number one in the ICC Test rankings
The Indian team is at the top of the ICC ODI and T20 rankings, occupying the first position. Test is now the only format in which he has to settle for second place. Australia is number one in the ICC Test Rankings. Although the ratings of India and Australia are same but if we are in double digits then Australia wins. But with the Indian team having won three consecutive Test matches in the recent past, their chances of finishing at number one increase.
The ranking has not been updated since January
The team rankings were not updated by ICC after January 28, 2024. If we talk about this time, Australia’s rating is 117 and the team is number one. India’s rating is also 117, ranking second. But since January 28, Indian team has won three consecutive matches but due to lack of updates from ICC, India’s current rating is not known.
If the Indian team wins the final Test, there is a chance of becoming number one.
If we talk about England, they are in third place, their rating until then was 115. But the team has lost three games in a row, so of course their rating would have gone down, but it will be interesting to see if this too affects their placement. After England, South Africa is in fourth place with a rating of 106. Will England fall behind South Africa or will they be able to salvage their position? This will only be announced when the rankings are updated by ICC. It is believed that it may be updated after the last Test between India and England.
