West Indies ranked number 1 in the world - dillinger10 - 01-10-2016 By my calculations, with Sri Lanka losing to New Zealand at Eden Park, West Indies take over first place (on decimal points) in the T20 rankings. Do West Indies not have any T20 matches scheduled prior to the World Cup? Re: West Indies ranked number 1 in the world - timmyj51 - 01-10-2016 Yah, muhn, do wat yo do best.  Stop nawin on dino bones  'n stik to run-n-gun.  8) 8) 8) Re: West Indies ranked number 1 in the world - dillinger10 - 01-11-2016 The official rankings have now been updated and my calculations were correct; West Indies are confirmed as the number 1 ranked T20I team in the world. Looking over the upcoming fixture lists, it really does appear that West Indies have no T20's schedule prior to the World Cup, which is very odd. I do remember that during England's T20 series with Pakistan last year, one of the commentators mentioned that no team has more than 3 T20's scheduled prior to the start of the World Cup. I would have thought that teams would have wanted more warm up matches, but perhaps the limited time and scheduling doesn't permit this?

Yeah ....now lets get on with it !  8) Re: West Indies ranked number 1 in the world - dillinger10 - 01-11-2016 I was looking over the betting odds for the T20 World Cup and was surprised to see that West Indies are as high as 8/1 to win the World Cup. India are favourites with Australia and South Africa also among the bookies favourites. http://www.oddschecker.com/cricket/t20-world-cup/twenty20-world-cup/winner Re: West Indies ranked number 1 in the world - ketchim - 01-11-2016 I hope the odds makers are aware that Sammy is no longer Captain... :-[
