The World Test Championship cycle, which spans the years 2021 to 2023, is down to its final four games across three series. With Australia already having secured their position at WTC, only two sides remain in the running for the final spot. On Wednesday, South Africa will take on West Indies in Johannesburg, which is a dead rubber. This implies the last spot will be decided based on the result of the Border Gavaskar Trophy and SriLanka-NewZealand series which begins on the same day.
Australia leads the WTC points standings with 68.52 PCT and secured their position. India is now in second place on the WTC points table with 60.29 PCT, but they haven’t advanced to the final since Asian opponent SriLanka, who is currently in third place, poses a threat.
What will happen if India plays a draw in Ahmedabad Test and SriLanka manages to win the first Test match against NewZealand?
- For India to qualify, they will hope that NewZealand can avoid whitewash in the series.
