Pakistan has reached the first position in the ODI rankings of the International Cricket Council (ICC).
With the victory in the fourth ODI of the 5-match home series at the National Stadium, Karachi, the Pakistan team became number one in the world of cricket.
Pakistan needed a must win in the last match to maintain the position they got today.
By winning the fourth match, the number of rating points of Pakistan has increased to 113 decimal 483 while Australia’s total rating points are 113 decimal 286.

The ICC ODI Rankings were officially released in the year 2005, and the formula has been applied in the past to determine the previous rankings.
