I thought I'd compare men's and women's England teams for their current world rankings:
Cricket - Men 5th Women 2nd
(for the Men I've taken the average of their Test, One Day Internationals and T20 as the Women's rankings combine these into one table)
Rugby Union - Men 3rd Women 2nd
Football - Men 16th Women 3rd - now 2nd
Hockey - Men 7th Women 2nd

The number of countries in the tables is much the same for men and for women by sport so the comparisons are fair.

Since I posted the above yesterday, FIFA has released updated rankings for the women's football. You'll see that they are the second best country in each of the 4 main team sports.
