ICC Championship Tables in September 2005
With the conclusion of the Test season on 12 September and the ODI season on 9 August, the official ICC Championship tables were as shown below. Many teams had changed positions owing to the cut-off system used, where results between 1 August 2002 and 1 August 2003 counted for the May rankings but not for the September rankings.

Famous quotes containing the words tables and/or september:
“Eddie Felson: Church of the Good Hustler.
Charlie: Looks more like a morgue to me. Those tables are the slabs they lay the stiffs on.
Eddie Felson: I’ll be alive when I get out, Charlie.”
—Sydney Carroll, U.S. screenwriter, and Robert Rossen. Eddie Felson (Paul Newman)
“Any one who knows what the worth of family affection is among the lower classes, and who has seen the array of little portraits stuck over a labourer’s fireplace ... will perhaps feel with me that in counteracting the tendencies, social and industrial, which every day are sapping the healthier family affections, the sixpenny photograph is doing more for the poor than all the philanthropists in the world.”
—Macmillan’s Magazine (London, September 1871)
