India has regained its title as
the world’s number one Test team after Australia suffered a 3-0 series defeat
against Sri Lanka Wednesday, the International Cricket Council said.
India, who had ceded the top slot to Steve Smith’s side at the turn of the
year, regained their crown thanks to their recent series victory over West
Indies, which meant Australia had to win the final Test in Colombo.
Sri Lanka’s 163-run victory on Wednesday
has also allowed Pakistan to leapfrog Australia in the rankings table after
Misbah-ul-Haq’s team drew their series with England 2-2 on Sunday.
