WTC Points Table: The second Test is being played between Sri Lanka and New Zealand in Galle. In the first Test, Sri Lanka defeated New Zealand by 63 runs. At the same time, after this victory, Sri Lanka reached the top-3 teams of the World Test Championship points table. Team India is at the top in the World Test Championship points table. After this, Australia is at number two. However, now the question in the mind of cricket fans is that if Sri Lanka defeats New Zealand in the second Test as well, then how much will the equation change in the World Test Championship points table? Also, will India, which is at the top at this time, also suffer a loss?
At present, the Indian team led by Rohit Sharma is at the top of the World Test Championship points table. Team India’s PCT is 71.67. At the same time, Australia, which is at the second position after India, has a PCT of 62.5. While Sri Lanka, which is at the third position after India and Australia, has a PCT of 50.00. But if Sri Lanka defeats New Zealand in the second Test, how much will it change? There is a big gap of 21.67 in the PCT of India and Sri Lanka. Therefore, Team India will not be harmed by Sri Lanka’s victory.
If Sri Lanka defeats New Zealand in the second Test, is it a warning signal for Australia? There is a gap of 12.5 PCT between Australia and Sri Lanka. In such a situation, there is very little chance that Sri Lanka will be able to overtake Australia, which is in second place. In this way, there is no threat to India and Australia from Sri Lanka’s victory, but if Sri Lanka wins, then the hopes of teams like New Zealand, England and Bangladesh may get a big blow.
