The BLACKCAPS are now level on points with fourth-placed Pakistan in the ICC ODI Championship table after Inzamam Ul-Haq’s side drew their latest series against England.
The New Zealanders are edged into fifth place by fractions of a ratings point after the host nation completed a three-wicket win at Edgbaston.
India can capitalise on Pakistan’s slip when it takes on world champions Australia and the West Indies in Malaysia this week.
BLACKCAPS Shane Bond and Daniel Vettori (pictured) continue to figure prominently in the ODI ratings for bowlers.
Speedster Bond trails only South Africa’s Shaun Pollock, and Vettori, in fourth, is the leading spinner in the tables.
