India Climbs To NO. 1 In T20I Rankings After 6 Long Years And More Cricket News

Several senior players have been dropped from India’s squad for the upcoming Test series against Sri Lanka. Among those is wicketkeeper-batter Wriddhiman Saha, who made a sensational revelation after getting axed. The 37-year-old revealed that, after India’s 1-2 Test series defeat in South Africa last month, head coach Rahul Dravid suggested him to consider international retirement, as he is not a part of the national team’s future plans.

Reacting to Saha’s statement, Dravid said ‘he’s not hurt at all’ and still has massive respect for the Bengal cricketer. Speaking of the motive behind his message, the former Indian captain said Saha ‘deserved’ clarity and he provided him the same. Meanwhile, Dravid’s reaction came on Sunday (February 20), following India’s 3-0 triumph in the T20I series against West Indies.

The 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 is less than two months away and all 10 franchises would be gearing up for the gala tournament. Lucknow Super Giants, one of the two new franchises, will be a team to watch out for as they formed a formidable squad at the mega auction earlier this month. However, fitness issues of their skipper KL Rahul is something that can worry the team management.

Former Indian opener Aakash Chopra is of the same opinion. Rahul sustained a hamstring injury while fielding during the second ODI against West Indies earlier this month. He subsequently got ruled out for the third ODI and the succeeding T20I series. He isn’t a part of India’s upcoming T20I and Test series against Sri Lanka either.

A 3-0 whitewash over West Indies took India to the top of the ICC T20I team rankings. Rohit Sharma’s side overtook England to get the pinnacle position, with the Men in Blue now matching the top rating of 269. However, India’s tally of 10,484 points is 10 more than England’s 10,474. It must be noted India became the top-ranked T20I team for the first time in six years and would be pleased with their efforts.

Although West Indies put up a substantial fight in all three matches, they couldn’t register a single victory. India advanced to a 17-run triumph in the third and final T20I of the series on Sunday (February 20) and subsequently clinched an emphatic 3-0 clean sweep of the series.
