The massive 246-run defeat in the Galle test against Sri Lanka proved to be a major setback for Pakistan. After this loss, the Pakistan team has moved from third place to fifth place in the World Test Championship points table. In such a situation, their hopes of reaching the final of the 2021-23 World Test Championship (WTC Final) have also been greatly affected.
Pakistan won the first match of the two match test series against Sri Lanka. With this victory, the Pakistani team was present in third place in the WTC 2021-23 table. If he had also won in the second test, he could have gotten very close to the top-2. But Sri Lanka ruined the Pak team’s hopes. Sri Lanka currently ranks third in this table.
It is worth noting that in the WTC table, the final match will be played only between the teams that are in the top 2 position. Currently, South Africa ranks first with 71.43 PCT and Australia ranks second with 70 PCT. Sri Lanka have made a good leap by drawing test series against Australia and Pakistan here. Sri Lanka has reached the third position with 53.33 pct. At the same time, the Indian team is present in fourth place with 52.08 pct.
Pakistan is number five in the WTC table. Pakistan has 51.85 pct. Here the West Indies (50) are sixth and England (33.33) seventh. Previous world test champion New Zealand (25.93 PCT) is present at number eight this time.
