India Displace Pakistan to Head World Test Championship Points Table

Written by Rohit Pawar

Virat Kohli’s team India have moved to the top spot in the latest ICC World Test Championship points table displacing arch-rivals Pakistan. India toppled Pakistan after winning the dramatic fourth Test match at Oval against England last week. Virat Kohli and co. currently occupy the top spot with 26 points in their kitty and a win percentage of 54.17. Pakistan, with 12 points and 50 win percentage sit on the second spot in the points table ahead of West Indies who have identical points with Pakistan. England are currently in the fourth spot with 14 points and a win percentage of 29.17.

If you are wondering why is England at the bottom despite having more points than both Pakistan and West Indies; the teams are ranked in ICC World Test Championship 2021-23 points table on the basis of PCT (Percentage of points). So far, India have played four Test matches in the tournament and have won two, lost one, and drawn one. Therefore, they have a win percentage of 54.17. Similarly, England have won one, lost two, and drawn one out of 4 Test matches played against India and hence have a win percentage of 29.17.
