New Delhi: Pakistan’s top spot in ICC T20 ranking could be danger if confident Kiwis emerge victorious in series decider, which is scheduled at the Green Field stadium in Trivandrum on Tuesday.

While, India will not be benefitting much, even if they take the series home. The Virat Kohli & Co. will still stand on fifth position with 119 points.
