DUBAI: The Pakistani squad has fallen in the rankings, while Sri Lanka has risen, according to the International Cricket Council’s (ICC) annual team rankings.
With a rating of 126, Australia has continued to hold the top rank in the ICC Men’s Test Team Ranking.
However, with the annual update, which considers games played since May 2024 at full value (100%) and those from the preceding two years at half value (50%), the Australian team’s score fell from 15 to 13.
After a successful year in Test cricket, where they won three of their four series, England, captained by Ben Stokes, have jumped into second place.
