Australian Skipper Steve Smith Gets ICC Test Championship Mace Monday July 25,2016


Australia captain Steve Smith on Monday July 25,2016 received the ICC Test Championship mace and US $1million in prize money for leading his side to the number-one ranking on the ICC Test Team rankings as on the annual April 1, 2015 cut-off date.

ICC Chief Executive David Richardson made the presentations to Smith in Pallekele, Sri Lanka. Smith captained Australia to 10 Test victories over the 12-month period.

Competition for the number-one ranking this year remains extremely tight as only 10 points separate the top four sides.

Second-ranked India, third-ranked Pakistan and fourth-ranked England have a chance to move into the number-one position, depending how West Indies-India, England-Pakistan and Sri Lanka-Australia series pans out
