The implications of another loss against Bangladesh are significant. A 4-0 defeat is effectively a clean sweep at the hands of a team that had, so far, been one of international cricket's punching bags - one that has now introduced a measure of consistency to its ability to surprise.

Take NOTHING less than 4-0.

And New Zealand, who were No. 2 in the ICC ODI rankings during the the tri-series in Sri Lanka in August, will slip down to No.7, while Bangladesh will move up to No.8, level with West Indies.

I did not know that - a team falling down to 5 places in the span of 2 months. Got to be the first. |
