ICC Cricket Rankings

[Sir Coolerking]

In the last 4 years Williamson has played 19 Tests at home averaging 73, he's played 4 away with an average of 11.

Although surprisingly, he's actually played more Tests away than at home during his entire career, 42 v 40.

Pretty certain the WTC is dead after this summer especially with the way the points are calculated.

The table cracks me up. NZ actuallly have a win rate of just 63.6% of their Tests, yet somehow have a points rating of 70% (because they lose matches in 3 Test series, not in 2). It highlights the ridiculousness that each Test that England won in Sri Lanka was worth 150% more than each Test they won in the Ashes.

If each Test had an equal rating (not series), the Top 4 would be India, Australia, England, NZ.

[Sir Coolerking]

Bit harsh on Stokes losing points for his batting after an 82 in the first innings and averaging 45 across the match. Even his one wicket only cost 29 runs across the 2 innings too.

Also seems bizarre that Kohli loses almost as many points as Rahane when one scored about 80 runs more.

Should imagine its because old matches fall off the rankings - or are downgraded because in the past.

"whereas our rankings take into account a player's entire career - though they put more emphasis on what he or she has done recently."

Stokes loses points for missing 4 Tests. His last was 1st Test v Pakistan.
