Latest WTC Points Table: Pakistan's victory over England makes the points table interesting, Pakistan team is at this number

 


Under the captaincy of Shan Masood, the Pakistan cricket team defeated England by 152 runs in the second Test and leveled the series 1-1. With this victory, the drought of 1348 days ended for Pakistan and they won a Test match at home after a long time. This victory is also the first victory of Shan Masood's Test career as captain. Pakistan has won a Test match on home soil for the first time since February 2021.

With this win, Pakistan has dashed England's hopes in the World Test Championship (WTC) points table. This win did not benefit Pakistan much but England's hopes of reaching the final definitely got a jolt. Despite this win, Pakistan remains in eighth place with 28 points and a PCT of 25.93%.

Pakistan has participated in nine Test matches in this cycle and has registered three wins. Meanwhile, England is still in fourth place with 93 points and a PCT of 43.06%. With this defeat, the road to the final has become a little more difficult for England. At the same time, the situation of the rest of the teams remains the same. Now the teams of England and Pakistan will be seen gearing up for the third Test in Rawalpindi starting on October 24.

Talking about this match, the spinners of the team were the heroes of victory for Pakistan in the second test played in Multan. The situation was such that only two Pakistani players took all 20 wickets of England. Yes, we are talking about Sajid Khan and Noman Ali. Both these Pakistani spinners wreaked havoc on the English players. Sajid Khan took 7 wickets for 111 runs in 26.2 overs in England's first innings. At the same time, Noman Ali took 3 wickets for 101 runs in 28 overs. After this, when the English team came to bat in the second innings, the magic of Sajid and Noman was also seen. The Pakistani captain did not let any other bowler bowl a single over and both these players bowled all the overs for Pakistan. Sajid took 2 wickets for 93 runs in 17 overs in England's second innings, while this time Noman took 8 wickets for 46 runs in 16.3 overs.
