Root domain ranks higher than sub pages
-
Our website is over 10 years old and has been very successful with google. We rank highly for our keywords, but recently a strange thing has happend. Google has indexed a video from our front page (which no longer exists) and shows this listing instead of the sub pages. This means the listing is irrelevant to the search term.
Term is "Junior Cricket Bats"
https://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4GGLL_en-GBGB377GB377&q=junior+cricket+batsshould some up with this page
http://www.cricketsupplies.com/junior-cricket-bats.aspbut shows the root domain
http://www.cricketsupplies.com/ with this video link which does not existWe should be ranking really well , and were , but now not so good , even though SEOmoz loves our pages
if anybody can see anything obvious i would be thanksful.
regards

I just did the search and it is your junior cricket bats page that is ranking and it is coming up at #13 in Google. Same page is #2 in Bing for the same search. Whatever was going on was likely not a real issue but a test being conducted by Google. This happens from time to time and you see incredibly odd things in the SERP's and their index, but they typically last 24 hours or less. I can't see any indication that anything is off here any longer.

Thanks Dan, worked out it was google account login which showed the funny listing
think i need someone to look at my links, as we always ranked well and had high listings, recently our pages have dropped off and being beaten by sites which dont have many inbounds and a less PR but ranking higher

thanks for the comments though and spending the time to reply
