Pakistan's triumph over India in the just-concluded tri-series in Bangladesh saw them close the gap by two rating points with India in latest ICC ODI rankings issued on Sunday.
However, the 25-run victory over India in the finals of the tri-series last night was not enough to propel Shoaib Malik's men from the fifth spot, although it seriously dented India's chances of leapfrogging to the third spot toppling New Zealand.
A win against Pakistan last night would have propelled India two points ahead of Daniel Vettori's side.
Pakistan's victory also meant that it is now six points clear of Sri Lanka and England, who are languishing at the sixth and seventh spot.
South Africa and Australia continues to top the table, 14 points ahead of the Kiwis.
The ladder is lot more congested further down with just eight points separating New Zealand and seventh-placed England.
