Nigeria’s men’s and women’s cricket teams have kept their places in the latest world rankings released by the International Cricket Council on Tuesday.
The new rankings were calculated using full points for matches played since May 2025, while games played in the previous two years were given 50 per cent value.
Several countries moved in the latest update. In the men’s rankings, India still remain top, although their lead over England reduced from 14 points to 13 points.
In the women’s rankings, Australia remain ahead of England, but their advantage dropped from 18 points to 12 points.
Nigeria’s men’s cricket team dropped two places from 36th to 38th position in the world rankings.
The women’s national team kept their 26th position after recording steady performances during the period under review.
Both Nigerian teams also played the minimum number of matches required by the ICC to remain in the official rankings.
