West Indies have guaranteed the No. 1 spot in the ICC T20 rankings after Sri Lanka, who had to a great extent involved the top rung since they won the World T20 in 2014, were caned by New Zealand in Auckland on Sunday.
West Indies have 118.36 rating focuses, and are presently hardly in front of both Sri Lanka and Australia who have precisely 118 rating focuses each.
West Indies have played eight matches following the apocalypse T20 in April 2014 and won four of them, including a world record pursue against South Africa in January 2015.
They gunned down 232 in 19.2 overs. Incidental to that has been Sri Lanka's fall - they have lost five of their last six matches, the most recent a nine-wicket drubbing as New Zealand dashed to their objective of 143 in a unimportant 10 overs.
Sri Lanka had started the two-match arrangement with a seven-point lead. Losing it 0-2 implied they were yet to win a T20 arrangement since getting to be World T20 champions (in spite of the fact that they beat England in an erratic match in May 2014) and were pushed off their No. 1 opening.
West Indies passage far more regrettable in alternate organizations. They are at No. 8 in Tests, in the wake of losing the Frank Worrell Trophy 2-0, and No. 9 in ODIs.
