I am at a loss to understand how Nathan Bracken re-claimed the top spot on the International Cricket Council’s (ICC) rankings for limited-over’s bowlers.
Consider this:
Bracken had taken just two wickets in three matches against Bangladesh at Darwin. Based on that performance Vettori overhauled him and accordingly became the no.1 ODI bowler.
Now according to the ICC rankings, Nathan Bracken has again become the number 1 ODI bowler on the basis of Daniel Vettori’s poor outing in Bangladesh, (one wicket in three matches). How can similar performances against a pathetic opposition cause this change?

Chris,
The ranking system is a joke perpetuated by ICC.
Yep I am a cricket fan. As for my inputs you are welcome.:)
This is seriously a joke. (That sounds strange - a serious joke?) They need to re-calibrate on a season by season basis.
VMM,
They need to calibrate the metrics.
