Bangladesh’s historic eight-wicket win over Australia has made India’s road to the World Test Championship final tougher. The victory lifted Bangladesh’s points percentage to 66.67, putting them firmly in the race for the top two spots. India remain sixth at 48.15 and now need a strong finish in their remaining matches to keep their WTC hopes alive.
Bangladesh’s historic Test win over Australia has dealt a big blow to India’s hopes in the ongoing World Test Championship (WTC). The eight-wicket win in Darwin lifted Bangladesh’s points percentage from 58.33 to 66.67. India, meanwhile, are sixth in the table with a PCT of 48.15.
The result has made the race for the top two spots even tougher for India. Bangladesh are now fourth, while New Zealand are third with 72.22 per cent and South Africa are second with 75.00. India will need a strong run in their remaining matches to close the gap.
Bangladesh’s win is also significant because Australia’s PCT dropped from 87.50 to 77.77. That has brought Australia closer to South Africa and New Zealand at the top of the table. With Bangladesh also gaining ground, India now have more teams ahead of them to catch.
India still have a chance to improve their position, but they have little room for error. Every win will be important if they are to push towards the top two and secure a place in the WTC final. Bangladesh’s stunning victory has made that road considerably harder for India.
