India lose No.1 T20I ranking, England reclaim top spot after series whitewash over Sri Lanka

Both India and England have the same rating points (269), but India has a total of 17.201 points in 64 matches, while England has 11,021 in just 41 matches, resulting in the latter moving ahead of the former.

Both India and England faced off in the T20 World Cup 2026 semi-final at Wankhede Stadium earlier this year, producing an absolute run-scoring classic. However, the then Suryakumar Yadav-led side came out on top, and the hosts eventually won the tournament and defended their title.

England have been in red-hot form under the leadership of Harry Brook, winning 23 out of 26 T20Is ever since he took over as the white-ball captain. On the other hand, India recently won a series against Zimbabwe and Afghanistan, and these results came as a respite after Shreyas' tenure as captain got off to a bad start.
