How India can qualify for the World Test Championships finals?
Currently, India is playing their 4 match test series against England on their home ground.
Current PCT of India – 71.7%
Remaining matches: Four-Test home series against England.
Though India remains in the secured spot of the WTC points table still they need the following qualifications to eligible for the World Test Championships finals.
India needs to beat England by 2-1, 2-0, 3-1, 3-0, or 4-0.
To cement their place in the final, India will need to win their upcoming four-match home series against England by at least a two-match margin.
If they lose one Test, then they will need to win three games (2-1, 2-0, 3-1, 3-0, or 4-0), whereas a 0-3 or 0-4 loss against England will wipe away their chances of making the final regardless of other results.
