Pak climbs to fifth position in ICC Test rankings

Pakistan is now ranked fifth in the International Cricket Council (ICC) Test table after climbing up one position following their 2-0 win over Bangladesh.

This is the Pakistan's best rank since March 2009.


Pakistan earned one rating point after winning the two-Test series, which had put them at par with Sri Lanka on 99 ratings points.

Pakistan, however, edged past Sri Lanka after the ratings were calculated beyond the decimal point, The Daily Times reports.

Pakistan is trailing Australia by four ratings points, and can overtake it only if India wins the upcoming Test series against the latter by 4-0.

England lead Pakistan by 26 ratings points ahead of the Test series in Dubai beginning from 17 January onwards.
