The ICC revised the standings for men's Test cricket. This happened on the back of England's recent series sweep of Pakistan.
As a result, Pakistan fell to the ninth position in the standings. The revised rankings display the current hierarchy of Test teams. The announcement was made once the series ended.
Elsewhere, the governing body also published updated rankings for women's teams. South Africa's women's squad secured a place for the forthcoming Cricket World Cup. This qualification occurred after they defeated Namibia in a qualifier tournament. The series triumph confirmed their place in the tournament. The two ranking updates were announced separately by the ICC.
