Plenty at stake for New Zealand in Reliance Mobile ICC ODI Championship table
Black Caps can rise to fourth place but could slip to as low as eighth in series with the West Indies .New Zealand can climb one place to fourth in the Reliance Mobile ICC ODI Championship table but could drop to as low as eighth when it goes head to head with the West Indies in the five-match ODI series starting in Queenstown on Wednesday.
Daniel Vettori’s side currently sits in fifth place on 113 ratings points and a 5-0 series win will put it ahead of Pakistan in fourth place on 118 points. A 4-1 series win will also be enough for the Black Caps to improve upon their current standing.
However, if the 5-0 series result goes the other way, New Zealand will concede 11 ratings points and the West Indies will gain 11 points. This will put both the teams level on 102 ratings points but Chris Gayle’s side will be placed higher than the Black Caps in seventh place when ratings are calculated beyond the decimal point..........
