Indian Opener Gautam Gambhir is the highest-placed Indian batsman at 4th while Harbhajan Singh is the top Indian bowler at 6th in the most recent ICC Test Rankings issued today.India is 3rd in the Test Championship bench just two points behind South Africa.
Other Indian batsmen Sachin Tendulkar (14th), VVS Laxman (16th) and Virender Sehwag (20th) are the inside the top-20.
Meanwhile, England, now placed sixth on the table, will straight away move up one spot if it wins both the matches of its upcoming two-Test series against West Indies.
Victories at Lord's and again at Durham would make England three ratings points giving it a total of 101, a single point ahead of Pakistan. A 1-0 series win would leave it on 100 ratings point except behind Younus Khan's team by a portion.
However, a 2-0 win for the West Indies would leave just one ratings point unraveling the two with England chink three points to 95 and the men from the Caribbean gaining five points to 94.
England's highest-ranked batsman is Kevin Pietersen in 6th position. The highest-ranked batsman from either side is Shivnarine Chanderpaul who occupies the top spot.
