The Aussies were told, by the ICC, they'd be #1 in the World T20 rankings, if the went 5-0 in the Tri-Series.
But the ICC clarified on Wednesday that this initial calculation was a clerical error and it is in fact Pakistan who have retained top spot by 0.19 of a point - 125.65 to Pakistan's 125.84.

Aaron Finch is #2 in the batting rankings and Glenn Maxwell - Tri-Series Player of the Series - is #7.
Dave Warner's recent run of outs sees him drop to 19th.
Maxy moves up to #2 on the T20 All-rounder table. No other Aussie is in the top 20.
Interestingly, Australia doesn't have a bowler (of the surrent T20 squad) in the top 17. Adam Zampa is at #18. Forgotten man, James Faulkner is at #9.
