India overtake Australia to regain top Test ranking
Hindustan Times|May 03, 2023
India returned to the top of the ICC Men's Test Team Rankings on Tuesday by moving five-points clear of second-placed Australia, who had occupied the top position since January 2022. The two teams will clash in the ICC World Test Championship final from June 7 at The Oval in London.
India overtake Australia to regain top Test ranking

The latest rankings don't count results from the 2019-2020 season and reflect all series completed since May 2020. This means India's 0-2 loss to New Zealand in March 2020 is no longer considered. The rankings assess series completed before May 2022 at 50% and the subsequent series at 100%.

India, who were last at the No. 1 spot for a month in December 2021, gained two rating points to move from 119 to 121.
