  • India tops T20 team rankings despite poor performance
  • Pakistan slipped to fourth place in the T20 team rankings
  • Pakistan defeated India-Afghanistan in Asia Cup

Pakistan has slipped to the fourth position in the T20 team rankings. After defeating India and Afghanistan in Asia Cup 2022, Pakistan moved closer to Team India, but the dream of becoming No.1 is now shattered.

India tops T20 team rankings

Team India may not have reached the final of the Asia Cup 2022, but they are at the top of the ICC T20 team rankings. Along with this, Pakistan’s dream of becoming a top team was shattered. Pakistan suffered two consecutive defeats by Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup, after which it suffered a loss in the rankings and the team slipped to fourth place. Babar Azam-led Pakistan came very close to India in the T20 team rankings, but two defeats have dashed their dream for now.

The Sri Lankan team reached the eighth position

On the other hand, the Sri Lankan team has reached the eighth position. Sri Lanka did not qualify directly for the Super-12 for the T20 World Cup this year, but by becoming the Asia Cup champions, the team has shown that no team will make the mistake of taking it lightly in T20.

India No-1 with 268 rating points

Talking about T20 men’s team ranking, India is at the top with 268 rating points, while England is at the second position with 262 rating points. Both South Africa and Pakistan account for 258 rating points each. Then New Zealand is in fifth place with 252 rating points. Reigning world champions Australia are sixth in the rankings.
