Ponting plays little cricket but that might just mean its hard to overtake him in the rankings....he has a sizeable lead. This is assuming we are going by ICC rankings for batting too, or are we just talking about # of runs/average?
Minimum of say 500 runs, and say 30 wickets?I was thinking ICC rankings for the teams, but best ave for players. We would not consider someone who bowls 3 overs and claims 1-7 for instance
