The International Cricket Council (ICC) ranks the ODI playing nations by giving them a rating which is based on the number of wins, losses, and draws they achieve in comparison to the number of matches they play.
Unlike the Test rankings, the ICC does not award a trophy, or a mace of any kind to the top side at the end of the year. Instead, they are awarded with the ICC ODI Championship shield, which features an inner circle of gold-coloured metal and is surrounded by a ring of silver-coloured metal.

The Australian cricket team have spent maximum time on top of the rankings since the turn of the millenium. They were unbeatable from 1999-2007, winning three world cups in a row, becoming the first team to ever do so. It was known as the "Golden Era" of Australian cricket. However, since then, they have been challenged by India, South Africa, and England, with the former two teams going on top of the rankings on many occasions.
England claimed the top spot after winning the world cup as they went to No.1 for the first time since 2013. They have been utterly dominant across all types of pitches. Eoin Morgan's team won 4-1 in Australia and 3-2 in New Zealand. They also sealed their credentials with a 2-1 victory at home against India. Their recent fumbles in World Cup made them lose their spot to India. But they gained back their position soon after their amazing triumph in the recently concluded men's world cup.
The Indian cricket team, who are on top of the ICC Test rankings, are currently second in the ODI rankings. They have been in sensational form over the past couple of years or so, but lost the top spot after going down against New Zealand in the semifinals of the world cup. India also won the 2018 Asia Cup before defeating West Indies 3-1. They won 2-1 in Australia before clinching the ODI series in New Zealand in the first three matches itself.
