I am as surprised as anyone else by the fact Wales are now the number one rugby team in the world. The possibility didn't enter my mind after the All Blacks destroying Australia 36-0 on Saturday to win the Bledisloe Cup.
It seems that Wales' 13-6 victory over England means they just squeezed past the All Blacks as they gained more ranking points for beating an England team who were higher in the rankings than the Wallabies.
It's the first time in a decade New Zealand will not be number one when the rankings are released on Monday morning.
https://www.world.rugby/rankings/mru is the link we will need tomorrow. It is still shoiwing last Monday's positions as I write.
