ICC ODI Team Rankings: India rise to No.1 spot as England slip to second

All’s not well with the England cricket team, after all. First, they suffer a shock defeat against unpredictable Pakistan in only their second match in the World Cup. Then, they go on to lose two consecutive matches to Sri Lanka and Australia respectively. While their qualification hopes may still be high, three consecutive defeats in the tournament mean that England are no longer the World’s No.1 side in the ICC Men’s ODI Team Rankings. They have slipped to second place with a rating of 122.

Virat Kohli’s Team India has overtaken England to claim the No.1 spot with a rating of 123. The Men in Blue are currently on a 4-match winning spree in the World Cup and look set for a semi-final spot. India are also No.1 in the ICC Test Team Rankings.
