Pakistan cricket team is all set to take to the top spot of the ICC Test team ranking table, after the fourth day of the current Test match between India and West Indies was also washed out due to rain, on Sunday.
In case of a draw between India and West Indies, which now seems imminent, India will lose the number one spot in the ICC Test team rankings. Pakistan, on the other hand, which is placed at number two in the world, will climb to the top spot.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Sunday has clarified that there is a prescribed procedure for the presentation for the Test mace to the team topping the rankings, local media reported.
Recently, the second of two one-day international matches between Ireland and Pakistan failed to see a ball bowled on Saturday. However, Pakistan thrashed Ireland by 255 runs in the first ODI at Malahide on Thursday, their biggest victory in terms of runs in the format.
Reportedly, Test skipper Misbah is presently on vacation in Norway while some of his Pakistan team-mates, including ODI skipper Azhar Ali who is also the Test vice-captain, are preparing to play England in the five-match One-day International series from Wednesday.
