What is the number of Indian team in ICC rankings?

The Indian cricket team is currently the world's number-1 team in ODI and T20 formats, while the Indian team is second in the Test rankings. There is also a format in which the Indian team is proving to be a failure in the individual player rankings. We are talking about the ranking of all-rounder players in ODI cricket, in which there is not a single Indian player in the top-10 list.

Talking about white ball cricket, India currently has world class all-rounders like Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel and Hardik Pandya. Ravindra Jadeja is currently India's top all-rounder in ODI cricket, ranked 13th. Another unfortunate thing is that apart from Jadeja, there is no other Indian player in the list of top-20 all-rounders. Hardik Pandya is ranked 22nd in this list. Axar Patel, who has represented Team India in more than 50 ODIs, is nowhere to be seen in this list. He is not even present in the top-50. At the top of this list is Afghanistan's Mohammad Nabi, who has announced his retirement from ODI cricket after the Champions Trophy 2025.

One of the main reasons for the poor ranking of India's all-rounder players in the ODI format is that Team India has played only 3 ODI matches in 2024. These three ODIs were played in the month of August, where the Indian team had to face a 2-0 defeat against Sri Lanka in the series. If we look at the ranking of batsmen in ODI cricket, three Indian batsmen are present in the top-10. Rohit Sharma (second), Shubman Gill (third) and Virat Kohli (fourth) are in the position. Three bowlers of the world's number-1 team in the ODI format, i.e. India, are also currently included in the top-10. Kuldeep Yadav (third), Jasprit Bumrah (eighth) and Mohammad Siraj are in the tenth position.
