England to equal India if they win series, 1-0 or 2-1. Will take no.1 rankings if they win 2-0 or above margin.

Yes, ICC is certainly wrong that a minnow basher like Swann sits on 2nd ranking.
And yes we are dreaming with WC and no.1 rankings. Wheras Clouderson was humilated in WC and England are no.3 in rankings. Thanks.:lol
:lol:lol
Then why are you playing Broad. :lol:lol
ICC rankings. Only 1 English pacer better than Ishant: Clouderson. :lol
And you call Indian fans deluded. :facepalm:facepalm
There are only 2 Australian batsmen in top 20 rankings. And both of them scored runs. Hussey and Watson. Australian batting is out of form from last 1 year.
This further proves my point.
Personally, i would keep Sehwag for his bowling alone in the side. Because if there is no cloud cover, i can see him comfortably outbowling Anderson. And this is proved by their records in Asia + West Indies where there is no cloud cover most of the time.
Sehwag 32 wickets @ 38.65

You want to drop the only batsman of your side , who is in top 20 rankings:facepalm

Pietersen is ranked 43 you know. He should be dropped from the team. He is English Yousuf pathan nowadays in ODI.

So you have forgotten that the same concept of "players get better overtime" applies to Indian bench strength too, who have been playing test match outside sub-continent first time in their career.
Well if you think that Indian team that is playing in WI is comparable to Original Indian...
:lol:lol
England don't need to show that their Ashes victory was not a fluke.:rolleyes So who scored runs against quality quick bowling ? Jack Hobbs.:facepalm
Didn't England lose test series in WI last time ?
And Gambhir a fluke ? The biggest fluke is Trott and Cook.

I agree with whatever you have written. :cheers But i find it difficult to include ZIM and BANG in my analysis.And i hope you understand that there was no agenda in setting 5000 as cutoff. I didn't manipulate...
This is like saying OZ were not ATG side in 1995-2007 because they won just 1 test series in India. Nobody includes Bang/Zim in analysis these days.

Show me the number of sub-25 average bowlers Hobbs faced .

Oh really. And when it is 2000, many more players...
What? India were ranked no.1 in 1971 and 1972 . And India had Kapil in 80s. Fact is Bang/ Zim are not capable of getting even a draw these days.As long as you are capable of getting a draw, you are not minnow. And Bang/Zim were minnow in 2000-2011.
