According to the ICC (International Cricket Council, the highest cricket governing body), the latest rankings (Tuesday, May 24, 2011), India is currently the number one ranked Test side in the world, with 128 points. South Africa are next with 117, and England are a close third with 115.
The highest ranked ODI side currently in the world is Australia, who are currently on 129 ratings points. They are followed by India on 121, then Sri Lanka on 118. However, it should be pointed out that the most recent ODI tournament concluded with India the winners, followed by Sri Lanka.
May be because of the Australian cricket team motto?
"Attitude is contagious is yours worth catching?"
& also the selection procedure there is by zonal wise & by the time a player comes to international cricket he would be more than 27 - 29 years having 10+years of First Class Experience.
