Afghanistan enter ICC ODI Rankings​

Following their landmark win against Bangladesh in the Asia Cup, Afghanistan have qualified for the ICC one-day rankings. They come into the rankings with 32 rating points, which puts them in 12th place behind Ireland and the Test nations. Should they register another win in the Asia Cup, they will leapfrog Ireland on the table.

The win against Bangladesh was Afghanistan's first against a Test-playing nation, and it came less than five months after they had secured their place in World Cup 2015 by finishing second in the World Cricket League Championship - the ICC's top one-day tournament for non-Full Members.

To gain promotion to the main rankings table, an Associate either needs to win two ODIs against Full Members, or register one win against a Full Member and have a winning percentage of over 60% against other Associates in the qualifying period (since August 2010). Afghanistan have met the second criterion.

A team also needs to have played a minimum of eight matches, in the format, in the qualifying period to get a ranking. Afghanistan have played 12 ODIs since August 2010.

First congratulation to Afghanistan Cricket Team for this achievement hya:k:clap:luv:tup But,
i don't think they could preform better in test because this format is different, Bangladesh would preform better than Afghanistan in this format but, now time is come for Afghanistan to prove them wrong and play better first in ODI and T20 and think for entering in Test cricket, may after couple of years we can see this team playing Test Cricket.
