What does ?

Cousin IT

Yeah the rankings dont mean much ... Atm South Africa are clearly the best side going around. Id say Australia are no.2 mainly because of their superior away record compared to India ... but with Dhoni at the helm and the quality of some of our young players coming through ... we could seriously be no.1 within a couple of years (if we work hard enough)

[zubinpepsi]

aaww the old troll is back to chest thump abt the ranking... its gonna be a shortlived though..he ll soon go back to exile ..

[factual]

Even if australia draw the series in south africa which they wont because they will win they will still be number 1 and when the aussies win the ashes after that no one will overtake them for years because we have the easiest of stretches starting with home series against pakistan, west indies and bangladesh followed by an away series in new zealand.

[Desi Cartman]

Congrats to Aus .. well done ... lost 2 of the last 3 series but still no 1 :two_thumbs_up:

Wrong about all the other teams but you are certainly right about one prediction...you will win against Pakistan... :cantstop:
