Pakistan has dropped to its lowest ICC Test ranking in nearly six decades following a 2-0 series defeat against Bangladesh. The whitewash in the two-match series has pushed Pakistan down two places in the ICC Men’s Test Team Rankings, leaving them in eighth position with just 76 rating points.
This marks Pakistan’s worst ranking since 1965, excluding a brief period when they were unranked due to insufficient matches, according to the ICC.
Before the series, Pakistan held the sixth spot in the rankings. However, after the two losses at home, they have fallen behind the West Indies, sparking concerns about the future of their Test cricket performance.
