A fine all-round show from Australia pushed them 1-0 up in the 3-match Test series.

<p>Special match for Nathon Lyon as he has achieved the amazing feat of taking 500 test wickets. First match for Mitch Marsh at the venue and his match-winning performance earned him the 'Player of the Match' award. Not only he was brutal with the bat, but also got rid of Babar Azam when asked to bowl. </p>



<p>It has been a while since Australia played a test match at Perth but they were quicker to adjust and adapt. Winning the toss and opting to bat first, Australia kept on making runs with the least of the problems by Pakistani Bowlers. Runs were flying on day 1 and Australia posted a huge total of 487 in the first innings. Aamer Jamal went for 111 runs in his 20 overs but the debutant got a debut 6-wicket-haul.</p>

<p>Pakistan also managed to bat over 100 overs but were only able to score 271 runs in their first innings. Skipper Shan Masood was the only player in the Pakistan squad, who looked a bit positive and eager to score runs. </p>



<p>Australia took a commanding lead of 216 runs, which was inevitable given the state of the wicket. Australia put up another impressive display at the batting, further undermining Pakistan. Marsh and Khawaja both scored fifty. Australia called for the declaration after the southpaw was dismissed on 90, giving Pakistan a daunting target of 450.</p>

<p>The Australian bowlers kept the momentum and put the square ablaze. Starc and Hazlewood were unplayable at the top with the new ball and they completely shook the Pakistani batting in and out! Lyon took his 500th Test wicket and the Aussie pacers had a gala time. Pakistan were bowled out for their third-lowest total in Australia</p>

ICC WTC Points Table Updated after AUS vs PAK 1st Test | India Back At The TOP | ICC World Test Championship 2023-25

icc-wtc-points-table-updated-after-aus-vs-pak-1st-test-india-back-at-the-top-icc-world-test-championship-2023-25

<p><strong>ICC WTC Points Table Updated after IND vs RSA 1st Test</strong>: South Africa started off the 2-match Test Series against India on a winning note as they managed to defeat The Men in Blue by an innings and 32 runs in the Boxing Day Test match at Centurion. This win against India means that the Proteas have made their way to the top of the WTC 2023-25 cycle points table with a points percentage of 100% as the South Africans managed to get all 12 points from the 1st test match.</p>



<p>Opener Dean Elgar?s knock of 185 runs and Marco Jansen?s fighting knock of 84 runs allowed the Proteas to post 408 runs on the board and took a lead of 163 runs, which was enough for the South Africans as the bowling trio of Kagiso Rabada, Marco Jansen, and Nandre Burger did not allow the Indian batters to settle down at the crease and managed to all out the Men in Blue for 131 runs and helped the Proteas win the 1st test.</p>



<p>India, who were at the top of the WTC points table, have fallen to the 5th position with a points percentage of 44.44%. The Men in Blue are ahead of Australia in the overall standings, but that might change if the Aussies manage to defeat Pakistan in the second test match.</p>



<p>The Men in Blue have managed to win just a single test match in SENA Nations in the previous 2 years, with the last win coming in the Boxing Day Test at Centurion in 2021 against South Africa. Since then, India has lost 3 matches in South Africa and 2 matches in England, including the 2023 WTC final against Australia.</p>



<p>India were not good with the bat at all as Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma, and Shubman Gill struggled against the South African pacers, while except Bumrah and Siraj, no other bowler troubled the batters of South Africa. KL Rahul's century in the 1st inning and Virat's fighting knock of 76 runs were not enough to prevent India from suffering a humiliating defeat in the 1st test against South Africa.</p>



<p>The Proteas lead the series 1-0, and India's dream of winning their first test series in South Africa will not come true this time.</p>

ICC WTC Points Table Updated after IND vs RSA 1st Test | South Africa on TOP | ICC World Test Championship 2023-25

icc-wtc-points-table-updated-after-ind-vs-rsa-1st-test-south-africa-on-top-icc-world-test-championship-2023-25

<p><strong>ICC World Test Championship 2023?25</strong>: Following a disappointing end to the first test match in Hyderabad, the Men in Blue bounced back in pretty good fashion in the five-match test series against England as they defeated the visitors at Vizag?s ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium by a margin of 106 runs and leveled the series 1-1. Three more test matches are still left in the series, as the third test match is scheduled to be played at Rajkot?s Saurashtra Cricket Association between February 15 and February 19.</p>



<p>The English batters did pose a strong challenge to the bowling unit of the Men in Blue, but two quick dismissals just before lunch on day four allowed Rohit Sharma and company to take advantage. Chinaman bowler Kuldeep Yadav got the all-important wicket of Zak Crawley (73 runs), and seamer Jasprit Bumrah caught Jonny Bairstow (26 runs) right in front of the stumps and sent him back to the pavilion. Bumrah picked up a total of nine wickets in the second test, and he played a vital role in India?s win against England in the second test match.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/India-vs-England-2nd-test.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-126194" /></figure>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Updated World Test Championship 2023-25 Points Table</strong></h3>



<p>Rohit Sharma and his men registered their third victory in the ongoing 2023?25 World Test Championship Cycle as they went on to win the second test match against the Three Lions by 106 runs. Following their win in the Vizag Test match, the Men in Blue now have 38 points next to their name in six test matches. The Indians have jumped to the second position in the overall standings with a PCT of 52.77. Rohit Sharma and his men would be looking to displace defending champions Australia at the top of the WTC points table by winning the five-match test series against England. Three matches are still left in the ongoing series, and India are considered the favourites to win the series.</p>



<p>England are still in the eighth position in the overall standings, with just three wins out of seven matches in the current cycle of the WTC. They have 21 points next to their name, with a PCT of 25.00. Reigning Champions Australia are at the top of the WTC points table with a PCT of 55.00 in 10 matches. South Africa, New Zealand, and Bangladesh are placed third, fourth, and fifth in the points table with a common PCT of 50.00. South Africa and New Zealand are currently taking on each other in a two-match test series. Pakistan are currently in the sixth position with a PCT of 36.66 in five matches, while the seventh position is occupied by the West Indies with a PCT of 33.33. Sri Lanka is still at the bottom of the WTC Points Table with a PCT of 0.00.</p>

ICC World Test Championship 2023?25 Updated Points Table after India vs England 2nd Test Match | India at Second | WTC Points Table

<p><strong>ICC WTC Points Table Updated after NZ vs SA 1st Test:</strong> New Zealand dethroned Australia to reach the top of the dome of the WTC Points Table as they defeated South Africa in the 1st test of the South Africa Tour of New Zealand 2024. India moves to the third spot and this post reads the latest updated ICC WTC Points table after NZ vs SA 1st Test. </p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><h2><strong>Jump To:</strong></h2><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#icc-wtc-points-table-updated-after-nz-vs-sa-1st-test">ICC WTC Points Table Updated after NZ vs SA 1st Test </a></li></ul></nav></div>



<p>Two innings and two hundreds for Kane Williamson in the first test. He has been one of the finest artists when it comes to red-ball cricket. Rachin Ravindra also made hay while the sun shone and knocked a sounding double hundred in the first innings. </p>



<p>Batting first, New Zealand didn't get a promising start but since Williamson and Ravindra entered the square, they didn't allow South African bowlers to make more damage. Kane scored his hundred and lost his wicket while Rachin was stuck at the other end. Daryl Mitchell and Glenn Phillips added 39 runs each and the double hundred of Rachin helped the home team to post a mammoth total of 511 on the board.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/375339-1.jpg" alt="ICC WTC Points Table Updated after NZ vs SA 1st Test | No. 1 NEW ZEALAND Leave Australia, India Behind| ICC World Test Championship 2023-25" class="wp-image-126346" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Williamson smacked two hundreds in a match (Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



<p>The inexperienced South African team seemed helpless in front of a full-strength New Zealand bowling line-up. Santner and Matt Henry shared 3 wickets each while Jamison and Ravindra shared 2 wickets each, and South Africa were bowled out at 162 runs. </p>



<p>New Zealand could have enforced follow-on but they opted to bat again. Latham and Conway failed again but Skipper Kane smacked another century and that led New Zealand to get a lead of 528 runs and New Zealand declared there.</p>



<p>A slightly better effort by the South African team but that was never going to be enough to defeat New Zealand at their home. South Africa were bundled out on 247 this time and New Zealand won the game by 281 runs.</p>

</div></figure>



<p>Following this win, New Zealand have now two wins in three games. They own 66.67 win% and that is the most in the current WTC cycle which means they have acquired the number 1 spot of the WTC Points table. </p>



<p>South Africa were placed third before the series but now, with 2 losses in three matches, they have 33.33 winning% which leaves them at seventh position on the latest updated ICC WTC Points table.</p>



<p>Australia were leading the board with 55 PCTs and now they are placed second. India also slips to third position with 52.77 PCT points.</p>



<p>Sri Lanka have lost both test matches against Pakistan at the start of the season and therefore they are ninth on the table. England is also there at the 8th position with just 25 PTC points after the loss to India in the second Test at Vishakhapatanam. </p>

<p><strong>(18 FEB) ICC WTC Points Table:</strong> India are bossing England in the Test and they have defeated the visitors England in the 3rd Test by a gigantic number of 434 runs. Following this win, India are again in the top two of the World Test Championship Points table replacing Australia and here we are with the ICC WTC Points Table Updated after IND vs ENG 3rd Test.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#ind-vs-eng-3rd-test-review">IND vs ENG 3rd Test Review</a></li><li class=""><a href="#icc-wtc-points-table-updated-after-ind-vs-eng-3rd-test">ICC WTC Points Table Updated after IND vs ENG 3rd Test</a><ul><li class=""><a href="#icc-wtc-points-table">ICC WTC Points Table</a></li></ul></li></ul></nav></div>



<p>India's future of Cricket is in the safe hands as young players like Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sarfaraz Khan are charming above the entire team in the record win over England. Yashasvi Jaiswal has been England's absolute nightmare in the series as in just 6 innings, he has smashed two double-hundreds and a half-century. He has equaled the record of most sixes in a series with Wasim Akram after hitting 22 sixes and there are still 4 innings to come.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ind-vs-eng-3rd-test-review"><strong>IND vs ENG 3rd Test Review</strong></h2>



<p>India and England were headed to Rajkot with an even scoreline after Hyderabad and Vishakhapatnam for the third test. India winning the toss, opted to bat first. Raw pace from Mark Wood proved to be dangerous for India as he scalped Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill in back-to-back overs. Tom Hartley removed Patidar and India were 3 down for 33 runs. </p>



<p>Skipper Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja stitched a reviving partnership and pulled India out of the well. Rohit Sharma smashed his much-awaited century and so does Jadeja. Debutant Sarfaraz Khan was too good on the pitch and smashed the English bowler all around the park to reach his 50 in his debut. Dhruv Jurel and Ashwin also contributed with good runs and with 26 runs from Bumrah, India ended at 445 runs in the first innings.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/Rohit-Sharma-Ravindra-Jadeja-1024x682.jpg" alt="IND vs ENG 3rd Test: Rohit Sharma loses his cool after Ravindra Jadeja Runs Out Sarfaraz Khan: Video" class="wp-image-126654" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image: BCCI</figcaption></figure>



<p>England got a good flowing start and they started with some attacking intent. Ashwin drew the first blood and removed Crawley. Ben Duckett had some other plans but he wasn't getting enough support from the other end. Nevertheless, he scored a befitting 153 off 151 which took England to a respectable total even after the regular wickets. Mohammed Siraj was too good in the middle overs and took 4 wickets to conclude England's innings to 319 runs. </p>



<p>India had a lead of 126 runs after the first innings. The second innings of India started with Rohit Sharma taking on England but he missed on a sweep and Root got the first wicket of the innings. Jaiswal started the assault and Shubman held the second end and Jaiswal reached his century in no time. Gill got run out at 91 following a mix-up but Jaiswal was too good for England and scored his second test double hundred with 14 boundaries and 12 sixes. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/yas-sar-1.jpg" alt="ICC WTC Points Table Updated after IND vs ENG 3rd Test | India Take Second Position | ICC World Test Championship 2023-25" class="wp-image-126744" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Jaiswal and Sarfaraz</figcaption></figure>



<p>Sarfraz Khan again smashed a quick half-century and just after that skipper Rohit Sharma decided to declare the innings and now India were 557 runs ahead of England and England had four and a half sessions to chase the target.</p>



<p>For the first time in the series, England's openers were looking very cautious but Ben Duckett got run out after a miscommunication. England lost their first wicket in 15 runs, second at 18 runs, third at 20, and fourth at 28 and the wickets kept falling. First Jadeja and then Kuldeep, the England batting was not ready for this collapse but it was meant to happen. Jadeja took a fifer at the end and India won the game by a huge total of 434 runs.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="icc-wtc-points-table-updated-after-ind-vs-eng-3rd-test"><strong>ICC WTC Points Table Updated after IND vs ENG 3rd Test</strong></h2>



<p>New Zealand are still at the top with a winning percentage of 75. They have played 4 matches and won 3 out of them. India are next on the list. They are second with the 59.52 winnings %. In seven matches, they have won 4, lost 2 and one ended in a draw. </p>



<p>Australia have played the most number of test matches in this new cycle of WTC. They have played 10 games and have won 6 out of those. With 66 points and 55 win %, they are third in the WTC Points table.</p>



<p>Bangladesh are currently the fourth-ranked team in the latest updated ICC WTC Points table. With one win and one loss, they are there with 50% of winnings. </p>

icc-wtc-points-table-updated-after-ind-vs-eng-3rd-test-india-take-second-position-icc-world-test-championship-2023-25

<p><strong>WTC points table:</strong> The Rohit Sharma led Indian team secured the first rank of the World Test Championship 2023?25 points table on Sunday, 3rd March. The Men in Blue moved to the first rank following Australia's victory over New Zealand in the first test match of their two-match test series.?</p>



<p>The Aussies dominating victory by a margin of 172 runs in the first test against the Black Caps allowed India to move to the top of the overall standings of the WTC 2023-25 cycle with a pct of 64.58%.</p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Updated WTC 2023-25 points table following Australia's victory in the first test against New Zealand:</h4>



<p>Australia, riding on the back of Cameron Green?s impressive unbeaten knock of 174 runs, managed to score 383 runs in their first inning, while Kiwi Pacer Matt Henry took a five-wicket haul against the Aussies.?In reply, the Black Caps batting unit struggled as they were bundled out for 179 runs in their first inning. Glenn Phillips top-scored for the hosts with his inning of 71 runs, while Nathan Lyon from Australia picked up four wickets and gave away just 43 runs.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

</div></figure>



<p>The Australians, in their second inning, put a score of 164 runs on the board, with Nathan Lyon (41 runs in 46 balls) top scoring for the visitors. Kiwi All Rounder Glenn Phillips (5-45) picked up a fifer against the Aussies in their second inning.</p>



<p>Chasing a total of 369 runs on the fourth day of the first test match, the Black Caps were bundled out for 196 runs, which allowed the Kangaroos to win the first test by 172 runs. Nathan Lyon (6-65) was the top wicket-taker for the visitors in the fourth inning of the match.</p>



<p>Lyon emerged as the hero for the Australians with his phenomenal 10-wicket haul, having picked up four wickets in the first inning and six wickets in the second inning. His 10-wicket haul against New Zealand in New Zealand meant that the 36-year-old became the first spinner since 2006 to secure a 10-wicket haul in New Zealand.</p>



<p>Talking about the Indian cricket team, they are anticipated to retain the number one position in the WTC 2023-25 points table if they manage to win the fifth and final test match against England, which is set to start on March 7th in Dharamshala. But if the Men in Blue lose or draw the fifth test against the Three Lions, then a door will be opened for New Zealand and Australia to overtake the Rohit Sharma-led team as the table toppers in the overall standings of the WTC 2023?25 cycle.</p>



<p>New Zealand and Australia will lock horns against each other in the second and final test match of the two-match test series on March 8 in Christchurch.</p>

Updated WTC points table following Australia's win against New Zealand

updated-wtc-points-table-following-australias-win-against-new-zealand

<p><strong>ICC WTC Points Table:</strong> The stage is all set for the 5th and last contest of the five-match test series in the England Tour of India 2024. The hosts India are set to lock horns against visitors England in the 5th test in one of the best picturesque venues HPCA Stadium, Dharamshala, and this encounter is crucial for Team India keeping WTC standings in view. Here is the ICC WTC Points Table Updated before the IND vs ENG 5th test.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><h2>Jump To:</h2><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#icc-wtc-points-table-before-the-ind-vs-eng-5th-test">ICC WTC Points Table before the IND vs ENG 5th test</a><ul><li class=""><a href="#wtc-points-table-2024">WTC Points Table 2024</a></li></ul></li></ul></nav></div>



<p>India have already won the test series even though they were on the losing corner in the first Test of the series. The well-planned combination of resilience and persistence from the Indian squad was the key against the indomitable England Cricket team.</p>



<p>Ben Stokes found confidence in his team's improvement throughout this lengthy five-Test series, which began in the southern region of the nation in late January. His team had different expectations coming into India, was inexperienced, and had a moniker Bazball hanging over their necks.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/02/Engalnd-1-1.jpg" alt="England announce their official playing 11 for the Ranchi test against India" class="wp-image-126961" /></figure>



<p>In the historical setting of India, it is not unusual to begin a series with a loss and win it. In terms of perspective, Rohit Sharma had the luxury of looking back on a challenging yet fruitful series and labeling it as one of his team's "comebacks" as he has done now following the Hyderabad Test defeat. On the other hand, the graph showed a different direction for England.</p>



<p>India will again look towards young faces like Jaiswal, Jurel, Sarfaraz, and others as they have looked promising in the series. The good news for India in the final test is that Jasprit Bumrah is back in the squad. </p>

<p><strong>Indian Squad for 5th test: </strong>Rohit Sharma (C), Jasprit Bumrah (VC), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Rajat Patidar, Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel (WK), KS Bharat (WK), Devdutt Padikkal, R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohd. Siraj, Mukesh Kumar, Akash Deep.</p>



<p>England have carried out their recently acquired tradition of announcing their playing 11 a day before the match starts and Ollie Robinson made the way in for Mark Wood for the final test match of the series. They have chose to stick with the two spinners and two pacers concept which wasn't looking very effective in the fourth test. Below is the England's announced Playing 11:</p>



<p><strong>England's announced Playing 11:</strong> Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes (C) Ben Foakes (WK), Tom Hartley, Mark Wood, James Anderson, Shoaib Bashir.</p>
