Wtc Final 1727078007

WTC Final: The Indian cricket team is currently playing a two-match Test series against Bangladesh. Team India won the first match of this series by 280 runs and strengthened its hold on the points table of the World Test Championship. At present, Team India is in the first position in the points table and remains the most favorite team to reach the final. However, they have not yet confirmed their place in the final. To reach the final, they will still need to work hard in the coming matches. Let us tell you that India has played the final of all the World Test Championships so far, but they have lost in all the finals. In such a situation, let us know how many matches Team India will have to win to reach the final of the World Test Championship 2025.

How can Team India reach the finals?

India is currently in first place with 71.67 PCT points, but they still have to play a total of 9 matches in this WTC cycle, which is the most by any team. India needs 51 more points to keep their percentage above 60, which they can achieve with four wins and a draw. Five wins will take the percentage to 64.03, but they will need seven wins to match their current score, which will keep their total percentage around 70, which can be considered enough to reach the final. With this entire equation, the Indian team will qualify without the help of any other team’s result.

Difficulties still not less

Team India’s problems are still not less. Even though India is number 1 in the World Test Championship points table, the upcoming two series are going to be very difficult for Team India. Where they have to play three Test matches against New Zealand and five Test matches against the Australian team in Australia. To reduce their problems, Team India will have to win all the matches played before the Australia tour, because the series against Australia is not going to be easy. Australia, Sri Lanka, and New Zealand are still in the race for the final.
