Re: Re: Re: Worthy no 1 at last by k vijayakumar on Aug 21, 2012 02:43 PM Blame the rating system. There has to be a clear difference in points system when it is played at home and away. In the given system, India earned No.1 but could not keep it for long. India & England's state would be an eye opener for SA and will think of retaining it's No.1 Spot. A truly deserving Team to be in No.1 Spot. Congratulations SA !!!    Forward   |   Report abuse
