Bangladesh slip to 10th in ODI rankings

Dhaka, May 5 (UNI) Bangladesh have slipped down one spot and are now ranked 10th in the ICC ODI Rankings after the annual rankings update across three formats by the ICC on Monday.
Bangladesh now have 76 rating points after a four-point decline. West Indies, meanwhile, surpassed Bangladesh with a five-point surge and are now in ninth position with 83 points.
The Tigers are ninth in the other two formats with a rating point of 62 in Tests and 225 in T20s.
Meanwhile, Australia remains at the top in Tests and India leads the two white-ball formats.
In the Test Rankings, Pat Cummins' side boasts a rating of 126, staying well in front of the chasing pack. Ben Stokes-led England (113) made a big jump, moving up into the second place, overtaking both South Africa (111) and India (105).
The rest of the top 10 remained unchanged, with New Zealand holding fifth place, followed by Sri Lanka, Pakistan, West Indies, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe, the Daily Star reported.
In the ODI rankings, India have strengthened their grip at the top on the back of a victorious ICC Champions Trophy 2025 campaign, improving their rating points from 122 to 124.
Coming in second place are the runners-up at the Champions Trophy, New Zealand, overtaking their Trans-Tasman rivals Australia, who now occupy third spot.
Sri Lanka, who had a rampant run at home in recent months, including ODI series wins against India and Australia, are in fourth place after gaining five rating points, leapfrogging Pakistan (fifth with a gain of one point) and South Africa (sixth with loss of four points) in the process.
Afghanistan also climbed the ladder – moving to seventh following a four-point improvement – at the expense of former world champions England, who fell to eighth after dropping four points.
In T20Is, the current ICC Men's T20 World Cup champions India are placed at the top, although their lead over the second-placed Australia has reduced from 10 to nine points.
The 2022 edition champions England, sit at number three, with New Zealand, West Indies and South Africa at four, five, and six respectively.
Sri Lanka's surge continues in the shortest format of the game as well, now 7th in the rankings after overtaking Asian rivals Pakistan (8). Bangladesh and Afghanistan follow their fellow Asian teams at ninth and tenth places, respectively.
The latest rankings rated all matches played since May 2024 at 100 percent and those of the previous two years at 50 percent.
