Re: Australia retain top spot in ODI rankings … Pakistan is 5th
This time last year, I believe that Australia were on a 30/31-point lead. This is only from memory, which has gone down considerably. From the latest rankings, they only have a 12-point lead ahead of South Africa and India, which are tied at 119 points.
The Australia/South Africa series early next year will be a good test for who now stands at the top of the mountain.
