Team India ICC ODI Ranking : England has captured the three-match ODI series played between India and England by 2-1. The beginning of the series was very good for Team India and India won the first match by 6 wickets. But after this, England made a strong counterattack and won the series by defeating India in the last two matches. Although the Indian batsmen performed well in the third and last ODI, the failure of the bowlers proved costly for the team. After this crushing defeat at the hands of England, the Indian team has now suffered a huge loss in the ICC rankings as well.
Team India slipped in ranking
The first match of the ODI series between India and England was played on 14 July. Before this match, Team India was on top in the ICC ODI rankings with 121 rating points, while the England team was far behind with 89 rating points. But now after losing the series, India’s rating has dropped from 121 to 116 as of July 20. On the other hand, England has got the benefit of winning the series and its rating has increased from 89 to 93. In such a situation, this is a big blow to the ranking for the Indian team.
The only thing of relief is that Team India still remains on the number one position. But if the performance of the Indian team remains like this, then the day is not far when this crown of kingship will be snatched from its head. Meanwhile, the England team has also benefited and has moved from eighth to seventh position in the rankings.
There was a very poor performance in the T20 series also.
Just before this ODI series, India had to face a crushing defeat in the five-match T20 series played against England. England had unilaterally defeated India 4-0 in that series. At the same time, before that, India had to face defeat by 0-2 in the two-match T20 series against Ireland. Overall, the Indian team has lost three consecutive series. These continuous defeats have raised serious questions not only on the form of the players but also on the strategy of the team management.
