Official CW rankings
They're back (provisionally). I just entered all the data for the past hour, there might (will) be some mistakes. I'll double check it all soon, but here's what it looks like (series which are in progress aren't included):
- England 1220
- Australia 1173
- South Africa 1140
- India 1087
- Sri Lanka 918
- Pakistan 753
- NZ 631
- West Indies 627
- Bangladesh 102

India lower than in ICC rankings because they've only beaten New Zealand and West Indies in away series. The 0-4 in England really hurt them badly because it really downgraded their away rankings (doing well away counts for more than doing well at home). However, India are currently the best 'home team' - they have not lost a series to anyone in the last set of series they've played. And as expected, England are the best travelers.
EDIT: Can a mod change the title to 'Updated January 2012'?

Mate if you're only using stats from the last hour they ain't worth a lot

The gap between SL and Pakistan seems ridiculously big considering that Pak really kicked SL in the last series

Yeah those are pretty good, WAG.
I'm surprised that my estimates (which for the first one was the same formula) were fairly off.

While Sri Lanka have been terrible since Murali retired, before that they were fairly gun at home at least. Think Australia are the only side to actually beat them at home.

Whoops, my bad. I totally skipped two of those (picked wrong filters for cricinfo). Told you it was provisional
.New rankings coming up soon.

I'm double checking some things (I've had to update the whole spreadsheet yesterday so I am just making sure I have the result of every series down right) - maybe you guys can help me double check.
Assuming I haven't made any mistakes above, here's what the rankings look like:
#2-#4 are so close that the current Aus-Ind series result could definitely see some reshuffling to pretty much any order between those three.
- NZ has not beaten anyone at home except Bangladesh
- India has not lost to anyone at home
- England has lost to WI SRL and India away
- England has won at home against everyone except RSA
- Pakistan has won at home vs. everyone except England (drawn vs. Aus and RSA ) - all neutral series counting as "home")
- WI have won vs. England at home and drawn vs. SL and Pakistan
Assuming I haven't made any mistakes above, here's what the rankings look like:
- England 1184
- RSA 1119
- Australia 1108
- India 1104
- Sri Lanka 892
- Pakistan 885
- New Zealand 630
- West Indies 623
- Bangladesh 102

It's a tie - the difference is so small that results from other series not involving SL or Pak can flip the rankings - same with Australia/India/South Africa.

Must be more a reflection on how arse everyone else is; our away record isn't really that flash. We've lost the last away series we played against India, West Indies, Sri Lanka and Pakistan & drew in SA.
I imagine the 3-1 win in Oz earns a few points tho.

Well technically, you guys 'won' away at Pakistan - wasn't that series in England considered a 'home' series for Pakistan?
But yes, I know what you mean.

No, I don't think so. The series where they played Australia up here was a "home" series for Pakistan, but I'm 90% our series that followed was an actual home one. We'd last played in 2006, so 2010 would be about right timeline wise.
