England’s Win Propels Them to 7th Position in World Test Championship Points Table
The second Test match between England and West Indies has come to a close, with England securing a win and taking a 2-0 lead in the series. As a result, England has made a significant leap in the World Test Championship (WTC) points table, jumping from its previous position to 7th place.
Current WTC Points Table Standings
The Indian cricket team is currently sitting at the top of the WTC points table with a percentage of 68.51. Australia is placed second with a percentage of 62.50, closely followed by New Zealand and Sri Lanka, who are tied at the 3rd and 4th positions respectively.
New Zealand and Sri Lanka Equal Points
New Zealand and Sri Lanka have equal points, both with a percentage of 50. While New Zealand has more points overall, Sri Lanka is placed below it due to a lower points differential.
Pakistan Stuck in 5th Position
Pakistan remains in 5th position with a percentage of 36.66, with no significant change expected in the near future.
England’s Sudden Rise
England’s win has propelled it to 6th position in the WTC points table, with a percentage of 31.25. If England can secure a win in the remaining match of the series, its percentage will increase to 36.53, bringing it closer to Pakistan’s position.
West Indies at the Bottom
South Africa and Bangladesh are placed 7th and 8th respectively, with the West Indies team struggling at the bottom with a percentage of 22.22, after losing two consecutive matches. Despite having a chance to move up in the points table, it seems unlikely, given England’s aggressive form.
