Pakistan ranked No.2 ODI team

 Pakistan has been ranked No.2 ODI team in the world according to latest ICC Rankings. Pakistan very briefly for three days were ranked no. 1 ODI team in the world after defeating New Zealand in the 4th ODI played in Pakistan at National cricket Arena in Karachi.

Much to do with Pakistan's success in international cricket is the unity brought by Babar Azam in the team. Babar Azam may not be as shrewd a captain as Sarfraz Ahmed and Imran Khan were at their peak of their captaincy days but Babar Azam has united the team giving respect to both the junior and senior players.

Notable series win by Pakistan's ODI team include defeating Australia 2-1, defeating South Africa 2-1 and recently defeating New Zealand 4-1. Pakistan have been the most consistent ODI team since the last world Cup in England in 2019.

In the end I would like to say that Pakistan is playing like a unit nowadays and there is hardly any weakness in their ODI team.
