(10 March) ICC Men?s Test Team Rankings: The India vs England Test Series has finally come to an end with a result reflecting the utter domination of the Indian Team. A 4-1 series victory over England helped India to reclaim the top spot in the latest updated ICC Men's Test Team Rankings. This post contains the latest Updated ICC Men's Test Team Rankings after the IND vs ENG Test Series.

Prior to the five-match test series, India were ranked second in the ICC Test Team standings. The home side were the favorites for the series but they got a tough challenge from the visitors. The scoreline of 4-1 doesn't actually show the competition and thrill of the series as England were the only team that made it hard for Indian players to win each game.

As mentioned by the head coach of England the India tour will be the real test of Bazball, it truly was and England arguably failed it. Despite winning the first test which laid off a strong base for them to concur with India, they let India take away well-set games in favor of England in the next three tests. The Dharamshala test was the easiest win for India in the series.
