TEST RANKINGS: A Match Of EQUALS Coming Up - Rev Al - 08-18-2014
OK Folks:
[size=14pt]* There will be match of EQUALS coming up shorting shortly.[/size]
* #8 ranked West Indies will be playing 2 tests against #10 ranked Bangladesh. This ought to be an exciting series.
* Mediocre WI batsmen and bowlers will have an ample opportunity to pad their averages.
* And gullible WI fans will be able to dream that the good old days are here again.

Why's Bangladesh ranked lower than Zimbabwe? They've drawn some matches lately vs NZ, SL etc. haven't they?

Maybe because Zimbabwe played a high profile series against a top ranked team.?
They were good and that might have propelled them up,but that's just a wild guess.
ICC rankings are purely crappy and we can't find out a reason for everything after all.

West Indies has potential to be a great team unlike Bangladesh, but I don;t know why they are not firing yet.
