England Are Unproven Number One's says Javed Miandad
Former Pakistan test batsman Javed Miandad has questioned England's status as the number one test side in the world after Pakistan defeated them inside three days win in the first test in UAE.
"I don't believe much in rankings because it doesn't give a clear picture of the team's overall performance in the world," Miandad said talking to ESPNCricinfo. "England is mainly the top side without playing in Asia and you must give credit to Pakistan that they have been playing with no home advantage and still they are winning. England are now the No. 1 team because they had the home advantage and never lost in their backyard."
Pakistan won the first test by ten wickets after a brilliant bowling performance by star spinner Saeed Ajmal, the off spin wizard in the process took over England's Graeme Swann as the number one spinner in test cricket after replacing him in the third spot in the Test bowlers ranking.
The second test between the two sides starts on January the 25th.
