Is India 2nd because everyone else bad or because India were good?Aren't they 2nd in the ICC rankings?
Just saying.
We're 8th.Those binary digits overrate India then.
You guys would drop to 3rd but would be back at 2nd if SA win the series against Aus by any margin.We're 8th.
But we'll be 7th if we win in Wellington!
I think their draw against South Africa from 2010/11 still helps and the system doesn't differentiate between home performances and away performances so that helps probably.Is India 2nd because everyone else bad or because India were good?
I rate India; I was really impressed by what they produced in South Africa and felt they should win this series fairly comfortably if they played to a similar standard. I suppose inconsistency is always going to be the main drawback of having a highly talented but inexperienced lineup though; we saw it even across the course of two innings here, let alone two series.Overrated by who? No one rates them and they just almost won a test despite giving up a 300 run first innings lead.
I already mentioned binary digits.I rate India

Nah I think I get even more infuriated about it then he does. Jono is right.More a Spark pet hate, IIRC.
And reviewing the domestic stats this year, Sam Wells could be a replacement for Sodhi too. Dependable batsman who can get through some restrictive overs if required.
