However, the rankings could change considerably over the coming weeks with a few ODI series scheduled.
Sixth-ranked South Africa play England in a three-match series. Only seven points behind Pakistan, they have an opportunity to rise to the fourth rank if they clean sweep England.
India, on the other hand, will play West Indies and could consolidate their third position increasing the rating points margin.
West Indies are ranked ninth with 70 rating points and 22 points behind eighth-placed Sri Lanka. They would not improve their ranking even with a clean sweep against India.
West Indies are having a poor run in the ODIs as they lost their recent ODI series against Bangladesh and earlier against Pakistan, both the opponents whitewashing the Caribbean outfit.
The ODI series between India and West Indies starts on 22 July, Friday.
