how many points did Pakistan gain after winning from S.a

 

[Aman]

Well deserved, we're probably a bit high atm.

True reflection of the team is probably 6 and below.

 

[GenericBrand]

Damn, the gap in points between #5 and #6

 

[Madplayer]

Did Pakistan lose 2 points somehow? Were they at 92 points after SA game?

 

[ChachaPakistani]

How do we possibly stay in the same position after defeating the number one team?

Because your competitors won against top teams as well?

 

[cricketInsight]

Good job - the bottom four need to raise their game!

 

[SARJ_BD]

How much point will Pak win if they beat Srilanka?

 

[smarmazhar]

How would the standings change after SL v PAK game? With only one point gap with Banglasesh, obviously SL is going to reclaim No 6 if they win the match right?

Yeah.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Congratulations , thoroughly deserved it.

Beating nz in england isnt easy and bd have done it a couple of times now. Hope that you guys make the semifinals. Go Poms!

 

[Imran Hasan]

There are little margin between 6,7 and 8. But to be in the no 5 would be an uphill task for 6,7 and 8 ranking teams. They have to play well minimum in next 2 years to become no 5.

 

[captain crook]

My personal current rankings -

1. Australia
2. England
3. South Africa
4. India
5. Bangladesh
6. New Zealand
7. Pakistan
8. Sri Lanka
9. Afghanistan
10. West Indies
11. Ireland

 

[arehaan]

i think the bigger news is wi losing to Afghanistan which means that their hopes of World Cup qualification takes serious hit

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Bangladesh need to target to break that 100 rating point mark and above...(as,they never achieved that before)

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

BD Need and should arrange a three or five match series in bd against NZ in this year.

 

[Muhammad10]

 

[Saj]

Give them a few years and Afghanistan will be above a few of the teams who are currently above them in the table and if they aren't careful Pakistan could be one of those teams.

 

[tahir_dj]

kiwis are truly home track bullies
when team visit their den thei commies talk about kiwis as if they are world beaters
as soon as they step out they play worser than minnows. it seems they forget their cricket.

 

[The_Odd_One]

This is a true reflection teams' standing ATM. Bangladesh is better than both SL and Pakistan. Pakistan is only better than WI and minnows/associates.

 

[theariezman]

Did Pakistan loose any point for loosing match against India and then gain any point for winning match against South Africa?

 

[Syed1]

Weren't we at 92 after winning against SA, how come we lost two points without playing?

 

[sam_ahm]

I don't understand why the PCB is reluctant to host Bangladesh in the UAE? They are probably atm a better side than WI and SLN and the fan base and passion in Bangladesh is quite amazing. So how exactly is hosting WI or SLN in the UAE is profitable but not hosting BAN?

 

[bujhee kom]

We are better than NZ. We are 5th in reality and soon will be ranked as such [soon being 18-24 months or so].

Do not be a juvenile which you may be. BD recent performance is no better than Pak. They have played well at home but abroad, they may be at par with Pak if not worse - I may be wrong. Pak team selection sounds like heading to a right direction. Playes like Fakhar, Sharjeel (who will come back once this bogus case is over), Shadab and some others will upgrade the unit. I am not rushing to say anything yet but we will find out in a week or so.
