Pakistan Jumps to 2nd on World Test Championship Points Table

Pakistan overtook arch-rivals India in the World Test Championship points table after their convincing 8 wicket victory over Bangladesh in the first Test match. Pakistan is now ranked second with a 66.66% percentage of points after the first three matches in the World Test Championship.

Pakistan chased down a target of 202 in the final innings comfortably with openers Abid Ali and Abdullah Shafique scoring half-centuries to take Pakistan home. The Men in Green will be determined to win the second match of the series and register their third victory in the World Test Championship.

India, on the other hand, has a 50% percentage of points after they could not defeat New Zealand in Kanpur in the first Test. New Zealand showed grit and determination to hold on to a draw as New Zealand’s last wicket partnership played out almost ten overs to secure a thrilling draw.

Currently, Sri Lanka leads the World Test Championship points table with a 100% record having won their first Test match against the West Indies. The two sides are currently playing their second and final match of the series.
