Dubai. Maintaing the number 1 spot is even more difficult than reaching the position. Who else can better understand this fact than the captain of the Indian Cricket team Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Even after winning the test series against West Indies by 1-0, India lost some points of the ICC test ratings. But the team is still on the top position.
Team India who reached West Indies without the lights of it's star players was required to win the test series by 3-0 for maintaining its 'superior' reign as the king of test cricket. But this didn't happened and due to this the rating of team India has fallen by 2 points and has reached 126. This means the difference between the rating of India and its close competitior England who is currently on the 2nd spot has decreased. And India's rule isn't anymore 'superior'.
According to the mathematics of the ICC test team ranking, if India would have defeated the Carribean team by 3-0, then its rating would have been maintained at 128 points. But due to a 1-0 victory India's rating has reached 126 points after dropping by 2 points.
