Surprising to see Flintoff at 3rd?

[Mr Casson]

Wasn't there already a thread like this last week?

[Mingster]

Thus the word "latest"...

But it had exactly the same name, and it's about the same thing. "Thus", why is it not in there? Or is it OK to make a new thread for the PWC ratings every week?

[Craig]

If there was - then my apologies.

[JASON]

Sehwag despite having had a good series seems to have dropped in the ranking or is it just the last Test that has affected his ranking?

Anil Kumble following better performances through out the series ranks ahead of Shane Warne !! While Harbhajan is languishing at 11th.

Danish Kaneria obviously deservedly has risen in the rankings !! Would be interesting to see how he performs in Australia.

[marc71178]

The last test has knocked Sehwag down from his position - the changes are since the 3rd game.

but he lot 46 points in that 4th test while hayden lost 2 and dravid gained some points

46 too much a lose when the other 2 whoes highet score was 31 gained or lost nothing

[marc71178]

Dravid scored 31* and 27 - in that low scoring match - those are huge efforts.

Hayden scored 35 and 24 - see the Dravid comment.

Sehwag scored 8 and 5, hence he lost points - poor efforts added to the fact that the number of games he's played is still relatively low so these failures have a slightly bigger effect.
