ICC Rankings
There isnt any thread to discuss the rankings and the changes after they are published.
The ranking changes after the super series has been announced. McGrath and Warne are officially no. 1 and 2 bowlers with Warne attaining the highest rating of his career since 1995. The player rankings: Batting 1 Jacques Kallis ROW 894 2 Brian Lara ROW 855 2 Ricky Ponting AUS 855 4 Rahul Dravid ROW 851 5 Virender Sehwag ROW 835 6 Matthew Hayden AUS 803 7 Shivnarine Chanderpaul WI 789 8 Marcus Trescothick ENG 778 9 Inzamam-ul-Haq ROW 773 10 Andrew Strauss ENG 760 Bowling 1 Glenn McGrath AUS 881 2 Shane Warne AUS 874 3 Muttiah Muralitharan ROW 871 4 Andrew Flintoff ROW 793 5 Shaun Pollock ROW 787 6 Makhaya Ntini ROW 784 7 Chaminda Vaas SL 770 7 Shoaib Akhtar ROW 770 9 Matthew Hoggard ENG 762 10 Irfan Pathan IND 756 All rounders 1 Andrew Flintoff ROW 4987 2 Jacques Kallis ROW 4961 3 Shaun Pollock ROW 3140 4 Sanath Jayasuriya SL 2935 5 Daniel Vettori ROW 2788 |

That's a bit stupid that some of those players are listed as playing for 'ROW' rather than their usual team, after a one-off match. Those ratings looks alright to me, although I'm not sure I'd have Pathan that high.

As an example of the flaw, Flintoff is only now rated as number 1 all rounder, in spite of being so for a fair while.

Vettori's certainly an all-rounder these days. If you average 40+ over the last two years, you can be considered a batsman.

Given the paucity of all-rounders in tests nowadays, if the ICC (I preferred the old PWC site, BTW) published, say, a top 20 instead of a top 5 I wonder who'd show up? Warney possibly? Ash Giles? Brett Lee? Maybe batters like Katich or Smith too.

He definitely does not deserve a place in the top 10.

ICC follows for Players ranking. Irfan Pathan, if you exclude the Zimbabwe and bangladesh series, is averaging in the high 40s and i really feel he does not deserve a place in the Indian Test team let alone the ICC top 10 |
