"I think you really need to take rankings and throw it out of the window. Rankings these days don't mean anything. I don't even know what ranking West Indies have, and they just beat England.

"You just need to go there, figure out which teams are best adapting the conditions and then the team that hits the ground running first has the best chance," he added.
