India has improved India's point percentage in the World Test Championship with the defeat of Sri Lanka by an innings and 222 runs in Mohali. However, Team India remains in fifth place. India is yet to play seven matches and by performing well in them, Team India can make it to the final of the Test Championship for the second time in a row. Earlier in 2021 too, India played the first final of the World Test Championship, but India had to face defeat against New Zealand.
India has secured 54.16 percent marks so far. In the World Test Championship points table, Australia retains the first position with 77.77 percent points. After this, Pakistan is second with 66.66 percentage points, Sri Lanka is also the third place with 66.66 percentage points and South Africa is in fourth place with 60 percentage points.
India has seven matches left in the Test Championship
The second final of the Test Championship will be played in the year 2023. Before this, India has to play seven Tests against Sri Lanka in addition to the day-night match in Bengaluru. Of these seven, six matches will be held in Asia. India will play one Test in England, two Tests in Bangladesh, and four Tests against Australia in their home country. It will be easy for India to win all other matches except the one Test in England. The Australian team can present a challenge, but the Indian team always has the upper hand on the spin pitch of India.
What is the final equation for India?
Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra has told on his YouTube channel how difficult the road to the World Test Championship is for India. He has said that if India wants to make it to the final, then it will have to win all four matches against Australia. He also said that India's 2-0 win against Sri Lanka is almost certain. Even in the series against Bangladesh, the chances of Team India winning are very high. However, winning the lone match in England will be the biggest challenge for India.
Difficult for New Zealand to reach the final
Akash further said that it will be very difficult for the New Zealand team, which won the first final of the World Test Championship, to make it to the final this time. The Kiwi team has to play only two Tests at their home in the coming time. After that, he has to play in England and Pakistan, where his chances of winning are slim. The Kiwi team is also below India in the points table. According to Akash, Pakistan and Australia are the strongest contenders to play the final. One of these two teams is almost certain to play the final. On the other hand, India is the third team, which will submit a claim for the final.
