2. Australia 126
3. Pakistan 111
4. New Zealand 111
5. India 109
6. Sri Lanka 108
7. England 106
8. West Indies 101
9. Bangladesh 42
10.Zimbabwe 22

Is this the beginning of the end for the arrogant Aussies?

Oh what a shame!!!
I watched that match and it was brilliant. I just wished Ponting was playing as I would have loved to have seen his face!!!
Looking at your list the top 8 are all quite near to each other.
I am supporting England of course and hope to see them at the NO.1 spot!!!
I think this World Cup is going to hold a few surprises!!
Enjoy!

yeah i know that it is the first time since the rankings were introduced in 2002 that aussies have fallen from no.1 spot to no.2 in latest rankings. I feel it just that now aussies are very much beatable provided you play good tough quality cricket. I feel it is right time & chance for all other teams to try to defeat ausies and win world cup. And hopefully our indian team will set the record straight & defeat the aussies emphatically and lift the world cup.

A bad run is enough to get them down the rankings for now. But I know in addition to their supposed arrogance they also have a lot of passion for the game, great talent and a very systematic approach. So, no..... I wouldnt write them off as yet.
