The ICC revised the standings for men's Test cricket. This happened on the back of England's recent series sweep of Pakistan.
As a result, Pakistan slipped to ninth position in the standings. The revised rankings reflect the current hierarchy of Test teams. The announcement was made following the final match.
Separately, the governing body also published updated rankings for women's teams. South Africa's women's squad secured a place for the upcoming Cricket World Cup. This qualification occurred after they defeated Namibia in a qualifier tournament. The win guaranteed their place in the tournament. The two ranking updates were handled separately by the ICC.
