ICC Men’s ODI Ranking Updated Ahead of ICC World Cup 2023 | India on TOP, Leaves behind Pakistan & Australia in Team Ranking: Just one night to go before we proceed with the ICC World Cup 2023 fixtures. England will take on New Zealand in the opening game of the event on October 5 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. But before that, let us have a glance at the ICC Men’s ODI Ranking.
Team India ensured that they remain unharmed atop the ICC Men’s ODI Ranking for teams ahead of the ICC World Cup 2023. The Men in Blue spearheaded by Rohit Sharma led India to a 2-1 ODI series win against Australia to topple the teams above it.
India’s top rank in the ICC Men’s ODI Ranking Points Table was a result of its second win against Australia in Indore. Rohit Sharma and his boys, owing to two consecutive wins, toppled Pakistan, which was heading the table until then.
After two successful victories against Australia, India suffered a defeat in the third game of the three-match ODI series between India and Australia. However, the defeat couldn’t disturb India’s position atop the points table.
Now as we head to the ICC World Cup 2023, Team India remains floated atop the ICC Men’s ODI Ranking for teams with a 116 rating and 5,085 points after playing out 44 ODI games. Pakistan slipped down to the second spot and currently has a 115 rating and 3,102 rating in 27 ODI appearances.
Pat Cummins-led Australia is comfortably sailing at third place with three rating points less than Pakistan after playing out 31 games in the season. The Proteas are placed just behind Australia with a difference of six rating points from Australia – 112 – in 24 ODI games.
The reigning champions, England are seated at the fifth spot, which ideally should be atop the points table. Jos Buttler and his men have amassed a 105 rating in 29 games.
