Revised World Test Championship 2025-27 points table standings after Old Trafford Test
England lose their grip on the second spot following the conclusion of the Old Trafford Test, which ended in a miraculous draw for India.

India and England locked horns in yet another closely-contested test match at Old Trafford. The Test did not see a winner as it ended in a draw. But for the Indian fans, the draw can be seen more as a victory. It all started with Joe Root and Ben Stokes dominating the fragile Indian pace-bowling attack and amassing a galloping 669 runs.
At 0-2, England had India by the scruff of the neck. An imminent victory awaited the home side during the early hours of day four. But what followed was an act of defiance from Team India and their sheer determination to grind hard. As a result, India were able to drag the game till the final hour of day five with six wickets in the bank, before the England captain, frustratingly, settled for a draw.
India will draw inspiration from this encounter as they head to Kia Oval for the final Test with the series tilted at 2-1 in favor of the hosts. As the dust settles on this gripping Test, it is time to look at the revised World Test Championship 2025-27 points table.

After the end of the fourth Test, neither of the two teams have made any significant gains in the rankings. The hard-fought draw has certainly dented England’s ranking as they slip to the third position with a PCT of 54.17. India, on the other hand, have done well to hold on to the fourth spot for the time being but would want to see an improvement in their rankings following the end of the fifth Test. The 2021-2023 WTC finalists have a PCT of 33.33.
Australia are currently sitting at the points table following their annihilating 3-0 series sweep against a bruised West Indies. The 2023 WTC Champions have a PCT of 100 and are the only team, apart from Sri Lanka, to enjoy an unbeaten streak in this cycle. Second to them is the island nation of Sri Lanka, who have recently fared well during their home Test series against Bangladesh, beating them by 1-0.
Meanwhile, Bangladesh and the West Indies have played a few games already in this cycle and are yet to register a win. Besides, New Zealand, Pakistan, and the eventual 2023-2025 WTC Champions, South Africa, are yet to open their account in this ongoing WTC 2025-27 cycle.
