    Bangladesh push past Australia, Pakistan in T20 rankings

    Bangladesh have moved up to No. 4* on the ICC's Twenty20 rankings, after beating Ireland 3-0 on their tour of Europe. For now, only England, South Africa and Sri Lanka lie above Bangladesh in the rankings.
    Bangladesh had broken into the rankings for the first time after their one-run win in the second match of the series; they had catapulted into the No. 6 spot, ahead of New Zealand, India and West Indies. Saturday's last-ball win lifted them further up the list, past Australia and Pakistan.
    Ireland, who were in ninth position ahead of the series, dropped two places to eleventh, meaning Afghanistan move into tenth.


    ICC Twenty20 rankings

    • 1 England
    • 2 South Africa
    • 3 Sri Lanka
    • 4 Bangladesh
    • 5 Pakistan
    • 6 Australia
    • 7 New Zealand
    • 8 India
    • 9 West Indies
    • 10 Afghanistan


    According to the ICC rules, only teams that have played at least eight Twenty20 internationals in the period starting August 1 2009 to date (the qualifying period changes every August) will get a ranking.
    Their elevated position is perhaps more than what captain Mushfiqur Rahim had hoped for ahead of Bangladesh's tour to Europe; he was eager, he said, to just break into the rankings. "We are still not good in the new format of the game. Due to lack of international matches we are not even in the ICC Twenty20 international rankings, while even Afghanistan occupies a spot in the rankings," Mushfiqur had told reporters before leaving Dhaka. "We have a chance to break into the [rankings] table if we can win matches on this tour."
    Bismillah, alhamdulillah, all praises due to Allah and may Allah increase the honor of Prophet Muhammad and protect our nation from any harm.

      Im very happy for BD. Well deserved.
      Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.

      A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

      For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


      The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

            Pakistan is top opposition, and BD almost beat them. BD also beat India in T20.

            I honestly think BD is a threat to all nations, and they have a promising squad.

                They lack severely in pace attack, but they have put together a good coaching team.

                  Yeah, but 'almost' beating Pakistan is an accomplishment, given how strong the Pakistani cricket team is, and their obvious historical achievements.

                      thats what y'all have to guess, its an afghan club t20 shirt

                      And about BD, well they have a good thing going..The wins against the Irish are good because last time when they were there it didn't work that well for them. T20 is the kinda format where its anyone's game no matter what your team is cuz all you're doing is pretty much slogging every ball. I don't want to take anything away from BD's achievement but the underlying factors can't be ignored. Currently the best T20 teams are India, South Africa and England. The rankings don't reflect any team's real strength in my opinion.

                          Have no idea who the Jarrod guy is.


                          That shirt is from the Afghan Cheetahs in Pakistan's t20 tournament.
                          Interesting to see him wear that.
