India become number one Test side overtaking Australia

Once more with an amazing show of expertise, the Indian cricket team has gotten its place at the top of the International Cricket Council's (ICC) Test cricket rankings. After a dominant 4-1 series triumph against England, India has surpassed Australia to reclaim the highly pursued number one position.

It is reported by a well known Pakistan online paper, that the rankings were released by the ICC this Saturday. This reflects India's striking resurgence after a brief stint at second place. In spite of a stumbling start with a misfortune in the opening Test against England, the Indian team energized greatly, securing triumph in the ensuing four matches, including the conclusive last game in Dharamsala.

This new accomplishment denotes a huge turnaround for India, who had slipped to second place before in January after a drawn series against South Africa. Australia had gained by India's slip, climbing to the best position with a prevailing presentation against Pakistan, clearing a three-Test series at home.

In the meantime, Australia presently drives the two-Test series against New Zealand, having gotten a convincing 172-run win in Wellington. However, India's position at the pinnacle of Test cricket is guaranteed, no matter what the result of the continuous New Zealand-Australia experience in Christchurch.

Notably, India's dominance reaches out past Test cricket, as they already hold the main positioning in both one-day and T20 internationals. Furthermore, they lead the ICC World Test Championship Standings table, consolidating their status as a force to be reckoned with in all formats of the game.
