That is what happens when, for the last year, all you have been playing is Trinidad and Tobago, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Philippines, Vietnam, and Uzbekistan while the Aussies have played against Ecuador, Costa Rica, Canada, France, Brazil, China, Japan, South Korea, Iraq, Jordan, Oman, and Romania.
Mind you, Australia really did do poorly... like real poor... during these matches so no excuses there but not surprising to see the UAE above Australia.
Since India rises if they do not play, and sink (and stink too) when they play, I propose that national team games be abolished. This will zoom India's ranking into the 100s and the spare time and efforts may be channelized in staging ISL and other circuses. I sniff a glorious future ahead ... ahem ...
