ICC Test Rankings: Ravi Shastri reveals the secret behind Team India retaining No 1 spot
Xtra Time Web Desk: Team India Head Coach Ravi Shastri lauded the efforts of his boys for once again attaining the No 1 spot in ICC Test rankings. The Indian test team retained the No 1 rankings for a consecutive fifth year now beginning from 2017. Such has been the dominance of Virat Kohli and his boys in the longer format.
Much of the credit should also go to the Head Coach for instilling in the unit the self belief and never say die attitude.
Taking to Twitter, Shastri wrote: This (India flag) team has shown steely resolve & unwavering focus to be crowned No. 1. It is something the boys have earned fair & square. Rules changed midway but #TeamIndia overcame every hurdle along the way. My boys played tough cricket in tough times. Super proud of this bindass bunch.”
The ICC World Test Championship (WTC) finalists India and New Zealand finished as the top two teams respectively in the ICC Men’s Test team rankings after the annual update carried out on Thursday.
India’s 2-1 win over Australia and 3-1 win over England over the past year and New Zealand’s 2-0 series wins over the West Indies and Pakistan helped them keep ahead of the pack.
