New Zealand have moved up three points in the wake of their only ODI series in the past year against Bangladesh, where they sealed the series 3-0.

Australia gained 7 points, taking their aggregate score to 118, whereas India lost 4 points and now have an aggregate of 115.
South Africa, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan have retained their previous spots and are ranked at 5,6,7 and 10 position, respectively.
In the bottom half of the top 10 table, West Indies have gained four points to replace Sri Lanka from the 8th spot while the latter’s ranking has declined to 9th.
The annual update to the Test rankings will be carried out after the conclusion of the ongoing Pakistan vs Zimbabwe series, where the tourists have taken a lead with a big win in the first game of the two-match series.
