Re: Is Pakistan the 2nd best team in the world?
The same can be said for Pakistan. Take out Moyo or Younis scores in this series and then look at the scorecard. Besides, the same Murali-less Sri Lanka beat England 5-0. You think Pakistan can do the same even at full strength?
The rankings are only an indicator of current form, nothing less nothing more. I wouldn’t take them too seriously. For one thing, they don’t take into account home and away victories. All of our series wins came in the sub continent. We struggled in West Indies and got whooped in Australia before that. This time around we got beat in England.
