England are on a roll at the moment: 8 wins in 9, and they've just completed a rare away whitewash, beating Sri Lanka for the 3rd test in succession. Meanwhile, Pakistan, narrowly pipped in their first match against New Zealand, have gained some revenge by comprehensively winning the following match. My cricket world ratings now look like this:
England 221 +20
India 183
South Africa 175
Australia 129
Pakistan 129 +31
New Zealand 119 -30
Sri Lanka 87 -20
West Indies 1
Bangladesh -119
Zimbabwe -252
Ireland -319
Afghanistan -351
Pakistan and New Zealand will now play a decider; the West Indies head to Bangladesh; most itneresting is whether India will be able to reassert themselves, on tour to an Australian side who've been struggling since the ball-tampering contraversy last winter. England will be back in action in the new year, when they will tour the Caribbean.
