The ICC revised the standings for men's Test cricket. This happened after England's recent series sweep of Pakistan.

As a result, Pakistan dropped to the ninth position in the standings. The revised rankings reflect the current hierarchy of Test teams. The announcement was made after the series concluded.

Elsewhere, the governing body also announced revised rankings for women's teams. South Africa's women's squad secured a place for the forthcoming Cricket World Cup. This qualification came after they won against Namibia in a qualifier tournament. The victory guaranteed their place in the tournament. The two ranking updates were processed separately by the ICC.
