There were plenty of T20 matches in February.
Afghanistan, Canada, and Ireland warmed up for the World T20 qualifiers with a four-way tournament (with Sri Lanka A) in Sri Lanka.
The home team won all their matches, with the associate teams winning one match apiece against each other.
Kenya and Scotland also warmed up with a tri-series in Nairobi (Uganda was the other team).
Kenya won the tournament at home, winning both the official international matches against Scotland.
Once the qualifying tournament got underway in the UAE, Afghanistan topped their pool, with Ireland runners-up.
The UAE was a surprise package in winning their pool, with the Netherlands also going through as runners-up.
Ireland won both their Super Four matches to qualify for the final, while Afghanistan lost to the Netherlands but beat the UAE to also make the final.
Afghanistan put in a strong performance to win the final by eight wickets - both finalists will go through to the World T20 tournament in the West Indies in May.
In other matches, Bangladesh were soundly beaten by New Zealand, Pakistan narrowly lost to Australia, Pakistan drew a two-match series with England in Dubai 1-1, and Australia comfortably beat the West Indies in two matches to wrap up their summer at home.
The month finished with Australia and New Zealand sharing a two-match series 1-1 (although New Zealand needed the Super Over to win the second game), while Zimbabwe upset the West Indies in a low-scoring match on a turning pitch at Port of Spain.
Australia climbed three places on the table, to fourth, and the West Indies dropped three places to eighth.
England rose one place, while India were down one spot to fifth.
India's ranking has never previously been as low, while the West Indies' rating and ranking are also at their lowest ever.
