WTC Final Qualification: The second Test of the 2 Test match series between India and Bangladesh (IND vs BAN) is going on at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur. The shadow of rain is looming over this match. The first day of the match was washed out by rain after a few overs. After which it is raining heavily on the second day as well.
Due to rain, both the teams went to the hotel and it seems that the match on the second day will also be canceled. Now the biggest question is, if the India vs Bangladesh second Test match is canceled due to rain, then how will India qualify for the WTC final?
If IND vs BAN 2nd Test match is drawn then how will India qualify for WTC Final?
- The Indian team has dominated the points table of the World Test Championship so far. The Indian team is at the top in this ranking. Team India is at the top with 71.67 percent points. The Indian team has been at the top position for the last few series. While the Bangladesh team is at the sixth position with 39.29 percent points.
- India currently tops the World Test Championship table with a PCT of 71.67 after 10 matches. The team is in a position to reach its third consecutive final. A 2-0 series win against Bangladesh would have meant that India would have needed only three wins from the remaining eight matches to secure a place in the final, three of which would have been against New Zealand at home.
- If rain disrupts the second match, India will have to win five of the next eight matches, provided the other contenders for the top two positions also do not lose any points.
- Therefore, India will have to clean sweep New Zealand 3-0 in its home and win at least two Tests in the five-match Border-Gavaskar series against Australia. India has won the series in Australia on the last two occasions, but still this challenge remains challenging.
- In the World Test Championship, the team winning the Test match gets 12 points. If the match is drawn, then both the teams get 4-4 points. In such a situation, if India wins this match, then the position of the Indian team in the points table will be strengthened with 74.24 points. But if the match is drawn or canceled, then the average of the Indian team's win will be 68.18 percent. In such a situation, if this match is canceled, then Bangladesh will benefit and the tension of the Indian team will increase.
