Pakistan has recently been defeated by the 9th-ranked Bangladesh in a test Match. Despite this setback, Pakistan has still a minor hope of qualifying for the World Test Championship Final.
Pakistan’s chances of reaching the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) 2023-2025 final were dashed after a crushing 10-wicket loss to Bangladesh in the first Test. This surprising loss has pushed Pakistan down the standings, raising concerns about their chances of reaching the final. Despite the defeat, qualification is still possible, but it will need a flawless run in the remaining matches and some luck. Here’s how Pakistan may keep their World Cup final aspirations alive.
World Test Championship Standings for Pakistan
Pakistan’s 10-wicket loss against Bangladesh in the first Test has demoted them to eighth spot in the World Test Championship 2023-2025 standings. Their victory percentage is currently 30.56%, which has a big impact on their prospects in the final.
This is Pakistan’s first Test defeat over Bangladesh, and it marks a historic low point in their campaign. The crushing defeat has fueled their quest for a WTC final spot.
Can Pakistan still qualify for the World Test Championship Final?
Pakistan still has a chance to qualify if they win all their remaining fixtures. This includes upcoming matches against England, and West Indies, and a challenging two-match series in South Africa.
But looking at the current condition of the Pakistan Cricket Team, one can hardly think this way. But you never know because the Pakistan Team has always been unpredictable.
