India third in latest ICC ODI rankings

"K2T Wisata"
Sri Lanka jumped over India in the ICC ODI cricket ratings in the latest released rankings on Tuesday. The reason for that is the Lankan win over the top-ranked side in the ICC ODI rankings – Australia.
Sri Lanka had beaten Australia 2-1 in the ODI series. This meant that they had not only beaten a far superior side but also away from home. This gave them the necessary points to push India to the number three position.
This was Sri Lanka’s first away win against Australia.
India will need to beat New Zealand 5-0 to return back to their second position. On the other hand, a 4-1 win will make it difficult for the Indians given that they will be a few decimals behind the Sri Lankans.
South Africa is currently fourth in the ranking while England is at the fifth spot.
