India
reclaimed the second position from South Africa
in the International Cricket Council (ICC) Test Championship after their 1-0
win in the two-match series against England
in Mohali Tuesday.
India won
the first Test in Chennai by six wickets and drew the second to earn two
ratings points and go ahead of South Africa
in second, a position it had briefly enjoyed after its 2-0 home series victory
over Australia
recently.
However, South Africa
can once again regain second position if it wins its current three-match series
against Australia
by 2-1 or 2-0, or draws it 1-1. Graeme Smith’s side can even leapfrog Ricky
Ponting’s side at the top of the ladder by a fraction of a point if it wins the
remaining two Tests to sweep the series 3-0.
But if Australia
wins the last two Tests it will not only widen the gap with South
Africa to 15 points but will also dash the
Proteas’ hopes of regaining the second position from India.
