World Test Championship 2025-2027 Standings Updates after India vs England 4th Test

ICC World Test Championship 2025-2027 Standings: A valiant effort from the Indian batters saw them save the fourth Test against England in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy at Old Trafford in Manchester on Sunday. After trailing 311 runs in the first innings, skipper Shubman Gill and opener KL Rahul put on an 188-run partnership for the third wicket after two wickets fell for a no-score in the first over.
Gill scored his fourth ton of the series while Rahul was unfortunate to be dismissed just 10 runs shy of his hundred. From there, Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar stitched a 203-run partnership, helping India to a famous draw. England still leads the five-match series 2-1 ahead of the last Test.
England slipped to third place in the World Test  Championship (2025-27) standings after being condemned to their first draw in the “Bazball” era in a Test not affected rain. The Ben Stokes side now has 26 points from four Tests and a 54.17 PCT. India is still fourth with 33.33 PCT.

Australia continue to lead the fresh new cycle of WTC standings with three wins and 100.00 PCT. Sri Lanka moved to second with 16 points and 66.67 PCT after two Tests. Bangladesh are fifth with one loss and one draw against Sri Lanka.

West Indies, who had their chances against Australia in all three Tests but squandered those to get a clean sweep in the home series 3-0, have yet to open their account in the WTC this cycle.
New Zealand, Pakan and South Africa are yet to play any matches in this WTC cycle. Defending World Test Champion South Africa beat Zimbabwe 2-0 in the recently concluded Test match series, but since Zimbabwe is not part of the current WTC cycle, the series was not counted in for the standings.
