<p>The WTC 2021-2023 cycle is almost coming to an end. Test cricket is the most loved format of the sport. We have seen a few test matches go down the wire of late. These games are the ones that make sports exciting. Post the announcement of the <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/tag/icc-world-test-championship/">World Test Championship</a>, the test matches have got a meaning and the games are truly very interesting. But who are the top performers of the WTC 2021-2023 cycle??</p>



<h2>Most Runs in WTC 2021-2023 Cycle:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Name&nbsp;</td><td>Country&nbsp;</td><td>Innings&nbsp;</td><td>Runs&nbsp;</td><td>Average&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Joe Root&nbsp;</td><td>England&nbsp;</td><td>40&nbsp;</td><td>1915&nbsp;</td><td>53.7&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Babar Azam&nbsp;</td><td>Pakistan&nbsp;</td><td>26&nbsp;</td><td>1527&nbsp;</td><td>61.8&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Usma Khawaja&nbsp;</td><td>Australia&nbsp;</td><td>27&nbsp;</td><td>1428&nbsp;</td><td>64.9&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Marnus Labuschagne&nbsp;</td><td>Australia&nbsp;</td><td>29&nbsp;</td><td>1384&nbsp;</td><td>53.2&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Jonny Bairstow&nbsp;</td><td>England&nbsp;</td><td>28&nbsp;</td><td>1285&nbsp;</td><td>51.4&nbsp;</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<h2>Joe Root has Mot Runs in the WTC 2021-2023 Cycle:&nbsp;</h2>

IMG SRC: ECB</figcaption></figure>



<p>Joe Root has scored a mountain of runs in this cycle of the World Test Championship. He was the only English batter scoring runs in the first half of the WTC 2021-2023 cycle. It was evident that the<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/england/"> England cricket team</a> was struggling but Joe Root was their lone warrior. Root has been an integral part of their success after adopting the Bazzball approach as well. It is because players like Root, bind the team together. His getting sacked from captaincy was a setback but that has worked exceptionally well for him and the team.?</p>



<p>Most Wickets in WTC 2021-2023 Cycle:&nbsp;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Name&nbsp;</td><td>Country&nbsp;</td><td>Wickets&nbsp;</td><td>Average&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Nathan Lyon&nbsp;</td><td>Australia&nbsp;</td><td>69&nbsp;</td><td>28.82&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>James Anderson&nbsp;</td><td>England&nbsp;</td><td>58&nbsp;</td><td>20.3&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Kagiso Rabada&nbsp;</td><td>South Africa&nbsp;</td><td>55&nbsp;</td><td>23.2&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Ollie Robinson&nbsp;</td><td>England&nbsp;</td><td>53&nbsp;</td><td>20.7&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Pat Cummins&nbsp;</td><td>Australia&nbsp;</td><td>53&nbsp;</td><td>21.22&nbsp;</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<h2>Nathan Lyon has the Most Wickets:&nbsp;</h2>

IMG SRC: CA</figcaption></figure>



<p>Lyon has managed to get himself to the top of the charts this time around. He was a class apart from all the other bowlers. Playing in Australian conditions where the ball is generally meant to be given to the pacers, Lyon managed to be the trump card of the Australians. He was the reason behind the success of Australia in this WTC 2021-2023 cycle. His performance against India in Indore was elite. It was one for the ages. Lyon has been a tireless workhorse for the Australian team and has been a part of all the Ashes series since 2013.&nbsp;</p>

WTC 2021-2023: Top Performers of the World Test Championship. Most Runs, Most Wickets. Best Scores. All You Need to Know.&nbsp;

wtc-2021-2023-top-performers-of-the-world-test-championship-most-runs-most-wickets-best-scores-all-you-need-to-know

<p><strong>WTC 2023 Final Qualifying Scenario:</strong> Australia has qualified for the WTC final following a convincing 9-wicket win against Team India in Indore. Two teams are competing for the last spot in the tournament. One of the four games between South Africa and the West Indies has no chance. This moves the attention to the outcome of the Sri Lanka vs. New Zealand series, which begins on the same day as the final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.&nbsp;</p>



<h2><strong>Top Spot for WTC 2023:</strong></h2>



<p>Australia was the first team to secure their place in the Test series against India. Nevertheless, two crushing losses, one by an innings and 123 runs in the first game and one by six wickets in the second, saw Team India emerge as the number one team to clinch the deal. The tables have now flipped, with Australia dominating the third game.</p>



<p>With 68.52 PCT, Australia has risen to the top of the WTC points standings. India is in second place with 60.29 PCT, but they haven't made it to the final yet. Sri Lanka, who is in third place, is a threat to India's qualification.</p>



<h2><strong>India vs. Australia, Fourth Test Match:</strong></h2>



<p>After three dust bowls, the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad was finally a batting paradise for the India-Australia series. However, the change may not help the hosts much since they are trying to qualify for the finals of the World Test Championship (WTC). Before the series finals, Team India head coach Rahul Dravid said that the choice to play on turners and result-oriented surfaces was made with the WTC final qualifying in mind. Still, when the ICC said that the pitch in Indore was bad, a batting paradise was set up. Australia took advantage of this when they won the toss and scored 480 runs in the first innings. Usman Khawaja scored 180 runs, and Cameron Green scored 114 runs to reach his maiden Test century.</p>



<h2><strong>India Scenario for WTC 2023 Final:</strong></h2>



<p>The type of surface and Australia's talent may jeopardize India's prospects, considering that India must win the current match if they do not want to rely on other outcomes to make the WTC 2023 final. If India wins the current test, their points percentage (PCT) will increase from 60.29 to 62.5. If they lose, the PCT will fall to 56.9. If the game is a tie, India's PCT will be 58.7.</p>



<p>As a consequence, if Sri Lanka wins the match against New Zealand, India's destiny is out of their control. Sri Lanka leads New Zealand by 65 runs (2nd innings) in the series opener in Christchurch and should easily defeat the Kiwis in the next Test match. Sri Lanka's PCT is now at 53.33. If Sri Lanka wins the first game of the series, their PCT will jump to 57.58. Nevertheless, in order for Sri Lanka to qualify for the WTC final, they must win both Test matches since only their PCT will reach 61.1.</p>



<p>Sri Lanka's hopes would collapse if they failed to win even one of the two matches against New Zealand. Sri Lanka's PCT will be 52.77 if they win one and lose the other. If they win one match and tie the other, their PCT will be 55.55. As a result, even if India loses the Ahmedabad Test (or the game is drawn), they will still have a chance to qualify for the final.</p>



<h2><strong>WTC 2021-23 Final Scenarios:</strong></h2>



<p><strong>For Australia vs. India-</strong></p>



<p>India to win the 4th Test, or Sri Lanka to lose or draw one Test match vs. New Zealand.</p>



<p><strong>For Australia vs. Sri Lanka-</strong></p>



<p>Sri Lanka has to defeat New Zealand by 2-0, or India will lose the fourth Test.</p>

WTC 2023 Final Qualifying Scenario: What Happens If India Wins Or Loses In The Fourth Test Against Australia?

wtc-2023-final-qualifying-scenario-what-happens-if-india-wins-or-loses-in-the-fourth-test-against-australia

<p><strong>ICC WTC Final 2023 India's Final Squad against Australia: </strong>The opponents for the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) Final 2023 are locked up as we will see a rematch between India and Australia on the world stage. The two teams will lock horns at Kennington Oval in London from June 7 to get crowned as the World Test Champions for the year 2023.</p>



<p>Australia sealed its position in the ICC WTC Final by defeating India in the 3rd test of the recently completed Border Gavaskar Trophy 2023. The Aussies finished their test run from 2021-23 atop the ICC WTC points table with a 66.67 win percentage. </p>



<p>Meanwhile, India managed to cross the barrier after retaining the Border Gavaskar Trophy 2023 and with a little help from New Zealand, who defeated Sri Lanka in the NZ vs SL 1st test. India's purple run in the BGT 2023 helped them to remain second to the Australian side in the ICC WTC 2023 Points Table.</p>



<p>Now that we have got both of our finalists, let's have a look at ICC WTC Final 2023 India's squad against Australia - Prediction.</p>



<h2><strong>ICC WTC Final 2023 India's Final Squad</strong></h2>



<p><strong>Openers - </strong>Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill</p>



<p>Captain Rohit Sharma has loved the company of Shubman Gill in the recent past. The two have provided India with some solid starts and partnerships. Rohit has been a different batter in the tests ever since he started opening the innings. He has looked more assured and worked his way out to tackle his woes. On the other side, Shubman Gill has taken the world by storm. He has been scoring runs for the team and has even registered three format centuries recently.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Rohit-Sharma-Virat-Kohli.jpg" alt="ICC WTC Final 2023 India's Squad against Australia - Prediction" class="wp-image-101300" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Photo Credit: AP</figcaption></figure>



<p><strong>Middle Order - </strong>Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer/Suryakumar Yadav, KS Bharat (wk), KL Rahul (wk) </p>



<p>The likes of Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer/Suryakumar Yadav will form the Indian middle order. While Pujara has managed to score 140 runs in 4 test matches in 2023, Virat Kohli slammed a century to shut his critics. In the recently held Border Gavaskar Trophy, Virat Kohli remained one of the top run-scorers with 297 runs from 4 matches. </p>



<p>Shreyas Iyer would be the ideal choice at number 5 for India, but, there are high chances that the batter could get rule out of the WTC Final 2023 due to his back injury. In such case, Suryakumar Yadav can replace him in the team.</p>



<p>Team India can carry two wicketkeeper - KS Bharat &amp; KL Rahul - for the ICC WTC Final 2023. Young KS Bharat was given a long rope in the recently held BGT 2023, however, the glovesman couldn't cement his place in the team. In 6 test innings, Bharat has only managed to score 101 runs at a poor average of 20.20. </p>



<p>Meanwhile, KL Rahul could be other wicketkeeping option. India will require the services of KL Rahul in England. Keeping in mind how KL Rahul performed in the previous England tour, he will be a crucial player for the Indian team. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Axar-Patel-Ravindra-Jadeja.jpg" alt="ICC WTC Final 2023 India's Squad against Australia - Prediction" class="wp-image-102158" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image: BCCI</figcaption></figure>



<p><strong>All-Rounders - </strong>Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, R Ashwin, Shardul Thakur</p>



<p>Although India would love to have pace bowling all-rounders in England, but, unfortunately, there aren't many options available right now. The likes of Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel and R Ashwin are all spinners, who can bat. Only Shardul Thakur is the pace bowling all-rounder available. Interestingly, Hardik Pandya can become a surprise inclusion in the team, however, he recently denied featuring in the test format.</p>



<p><strong>Bowlers - </strong>Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammad Siraj, Mohammad Shami, Umesh Yadav</p>



<p>The bowling unit of the Indian team include - Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammad Siraj, Mohamamd Shami and Umesh Yadav. Unfortunately, Jasprit Bumrah won't be available to aid the Indian team in England this time. The pacer has recently undergone a back surgery to cure his long persisting injury.</p>



<h4><strong>ICC WTC Final 2023 India's Final Squad</strong>:</h4>



<p>Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, KL Rahul (wk), Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer/Suryakumar Yadav, KS Bharat (wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, R Ashwin, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammad Shami, Mohammad Siraj, Umesh Yadav.</p>

ICC WTC Final 2023 India's Squad against Australia - Prediction

icc-wtc-final-2023-indias-squad-against-australia-prediction

<p>ICC WTC Final: After two years of spectacular cricket Test cricket, we have got the finalists for the World Test Championship. India Cricket Team has managed to reach the final as they played a sensational brand of Test cricket over the last couple of years and the hard work of that has paid off. They will now face Australia in the main event at Oval England from the 7th to the 11th of June.&nbsp;</p>



<p>This is the second time India has qualified for the final of the WTC 2023. They lost to New Zealand first time and this time around it?ll be an extremely crucial game for them as they haven?t won any ICC trophy since 2013. They have faced a lot of criticism for that and many are backing them to change their fortunes and bring the trophy home.&nbsp;</p>



<p>On the other hand, Australia was the most dominant team during this cycle of WTC. They thumped every team that they played against apart from India and would be raring to get the title. The English conditions would suit them more as compared to their opponents&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>ICC WTC Final: Ajinkya Rahane is still optimistic about finding a place in the squad for WTC Final</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Ajinkya-Rahane.jpg" alt="I took decisions, someone else took its credit, says Ajinkya Rahane" class="wp-image-65965" /></figure>



<p>ICC WTC Final: With World Test Championship Final around the corner, India batter Ajinkya Rahane hasn?t ruled out his chances to play for India against Australia. He has said that anything can happen and he will not give up.&nbsp;</p>



<p><em>?Still, a long way to go [WTC final]. Today, I was not sure about my place in the eleven, (and) got to know just before the toss. For me, it is about playing one game at a time and staying in the moment. Anything can happen. I will never give up. For me it is about playing with enjoyment and passion,"&nbsp;</em>he said.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Ajinkya Rahane was dropped from the Indian Test side after his torrid run in the Tests. He has been on the sidelines for almost a year and also was terminated from the BCCI?s annual contract as well. Having played the last Test in January, the right-hander averages just 20.25 in his last 15 Test matches with no hundreds and just three fifties.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, with India likely to be without the services of Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer for the summit clash against Australia, one name that pops up for the spot is Ajinkya Rahane. The batter has a good track record in England and his experience would be something the team would want to look at.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Ajinkya Rahane is currently playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. He played a staggering knock of 61 runs in 27 balls and guided his side Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to the win.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The way he crafted his inning was something to look at. He played classical shots and with the way he timed the ball, BCCI certainly would b having an eye on him. The batter also had a staggering domestic season as he piled up a huge amount of runs.&nbsp;</p>

<p>ICC WTC Final: The second edition of the World Test Championship has reached the business end. After two years of exciting Test cricket, we have got the finalists of the tournament. India and Australia will lock horns with each other in the summit clash in June this year. The final will take place in The Oval, England from 7th to 11th June. The Indian Team has played some exceptional brand of cricket but they will be without a few key players for the game.?</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>ICC WTC Final: ?I have noticed faults in the system,? Mohammad Kaif slams NCA&nbsp;</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Jasprit_Bumrah_1630662945267_-1.jpg" alt="Jasprit Bumrah becomes 6th Indian bowler to scalp 100 wickets in SENA Countries" class="wp-image-82820" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image Source: twitter</figcaption></figure>



<p>ICC WTC Final: India will be without the services of Jasprit Bumrah for the World Test Championship Final. Then pacer suffered a back injury and has been out of cricketing action since September 2022. He was named in India?s squad for the series against Sri Lanka early this year but he yet again felt discomfort and was again ruled out.?</p>



<p>His absence will leave a massive void in the Indian side as it?s fair to say that did in English conditions he has proved himself a vital cog. The other Indian pacers on the other hand have been asked by BCCI to practice with the red ball during the IPL as there will be less time to practice.&nbsp;</p>



<p>BCCI recently confirmed that Jasprit Bumrah underwent surgery in New Zealand and will be heading to NCA for rehabilitation. The NCA has been under a scanner for a while as various Indian players, who return from injury have suffered more injuries and have been out of action for while.?</p>

<p>Mohammad Kaif pointed out the faults in the system, saying that NCA trainers, physios and VVS Laxman should take care of the situation and shouldn?t take things lightly. Speaking to Sportskeeda, he said:&nbsp;</p>



<p><em>?I have noticed faults in the system. Players have gotten picked in the squad, and then pulled out before the match citing they weren?t fully fit. This happened to Bumrah recently and even Mohammad Shami has done this a couple of times.?&nbsp;</em></p>



<p><em>?So the NCA trainers, physios, VVS Laxman and his team have to take care of these situations. Because it is unfair on the fans of cricket who are expecting Bumrah to play the next day. I feel this is a very serious matter and the management shouldn?t take it lightly.?&nbsp;</em></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>ICC WTC Final: ?Players should be tested properly before being declared fit,? says Mohammad Kaif&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p><em>?There should be transparency and players should be tested properly before being declared fit. There shouldn?t be any grey area left; a player is either fit or more 10-20 days will be needed.

<p>Apart from Jasprit Bumrah, Shreyas Iyer has also been ruled out of the ICC WTC Final. The batter too has suffered a back injury and has been out of action since Border-Gavaskar Trophy. He will undergo surgery soon.?</p>

<p><strong>ICC Test Players Ranking 2024:</strong> The International Cricket Council (ICC) has released the latest Test Rankings, and King Kohli has started 2024 on a positive note. Thanks to his outstanding fighting knock of 76 runs in the second innings of the Boxing Day Test match at Centurion and a decent knock of 38 runs in the first innings, the RCB batter has made his way into the top 10 of the ICC Test Rankings after a gap of more than a year.</p>



<p>Virat has jumped to the 9th spot in the Test Rankings with 761 rating points next to his name after spending a lot of time in the 13th position, and the 35-year-old is the only Indian batsman who is in the top 10 of the Test Rankings currently. Skipper Rohit Sharma, who was at the number 10 spot in the rankings, has dropped down to the 14th spot after finishing the Centurion test with scores of 5 runs in the first inning and a duck in the second inning. KL Rahul, who scored a century in the first test against South Africa, has made a jump to the 51st spot in the rankings, while stand-in skipper Dean Elgar's knock of 185 runs in the Boxing Day Test has helped him move to the 17th spot with 680 rating points next to his name.</p>



<p>New Zealand Skipper Kane Williamson is currently leading the ICC Test Rankings with 864 rating points next to his name, followed by Joe Root at number 2 with 859 rating points and Steve Smith at number three with 820 rating points next to his name. Usman Khawaja, who managed to score just 42 runs in the second Test match against Pakistan, has been displaced by Daryl Mitchell in the 4th spot, while Babar Azam and Travis Head have dropped to the 6th and 10th spots in the Test Rankings after repeated failures in the ongoing Australia-Pakistan Test Series.</p>



<p>Talking about the bowling rankings, Indian Off-Spinner Ravichandran Ashwin continues to be at the top with 872 ranking points, while Proteas Seamer Kagiso Rabada is at the number 2 spot in the Test Bowling rankings with 854 rating points, and the number 3 spot is occupied by Aussie Skipper Pat Cummins, who has 841 rating points next to his name. The possibilities of Pat Cummins displacing Ravi Ashwin at the number one spot in the ICC Test Rankings are pretty high, as the 30-year-old has managed to get three five- wicket hauls against Pakistan in the ongoing Test series.</p>

<p><strong>5. Steve Smith (AUS)</strong></p>
<p>Steve Smith is one of the best test batters that the game has seen in the last decade or so. He started his career as a leg-spinner and batted at no. 8 in his first game. But here, he is among the greatest of all time. Smith recently reached the 10,000-run mark in the first test against Sri Lanka in Galle in his 205th innings. He has scored 10,038* runs in 205 innings at an average of almost 56 with 34 centuries and 42 half-centuries.</p>
<p><strong>4. Ricky Ponting (AUS)</strong></p>
<p>Former Australian captain was the best captain that the game has seen. He retired with four ICC trophies. Ponting also retired with the second-most runs in test cricket, and he is the fourth-fastest overall, having done it in 196 innings. Ponting played 168 tests between 1995 and 2012 and scored 13,378 runs at an average of 51.85. He scored 41 centuries and 62 half-centuries with a best of 257.</p>
<p><strong>3. Kumar Sangakkara (SL)</strong></p>
<p>Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara was an underrated batter, but his numbers are certainly mind-boggling. He retired with the most runs and centuries for Sri Lanka in international cricket. The Southpaw also holds the record for the second-most test double hundreds (11) after Sir Don Bradman (12). Sangakkara reached 10,000 test runs in his 195th innings. He played 134 tests and scored 12,400 runs at an average of 57.40 and the best of 319. The Southpaw scored 38 centuries and 52 half-centuries in total.</p>
<p><strong>2. Sachin Tendulkar (IND)</strong></p>
<p>The legendary Indian batter Sachin Tendulkar is the second-fastest batter overall. Sachin retired with the most runs, centuries, half-centuries, and matches in test cricket history. That tells something about his longevity. Sachin played 200 tests and scored 15921 runs at an average of 53.78 and a best of 248 not out. He scored 51 centuries and 68 half-centuries and reached 10,000 runs in his 195th test innings.</p>
<p><strong>1. Brian Lara (WI)</strong></p>
<p>Brian Lara was one of the best batters that West Indies produced in this game. The left-hander holds the record for the highest test individual score and is the only batter to cross the 370-run mark twice in an innings. Lara reached 10,000 test runs in the 195th innings. Overall, he scored 11953 runs in 131 tests at an average of 52.88, with 34 centuries and 48 half-centuries.</p>
