SOUTH AFRICAN CRICKET TEAM STAY AT NO 2 IN WORLD RANKINGS
The South African cricket team retained their position as the world number two Test team, four points behind India and two ahead of Australia in the latest rankings released on 18 January after beating England in the last test match on 17 January. The win meant that the series was shared one-all, and South Africa retained the Basil d'Oliveira Trophy they won in England in 2008.
South Africa’s Graeme Smith was the top run scorer, with 427 at an average of 61. He and Jacques Kallis made two centuries each and Mark Boucher became only the second wicketkeeper, after Australia's Adam Gilchrist, to pass 5 000 Test runs. Mark Boucher was named Man of the Series.
