How can India qualify for WTC final 2025 if Gabba Test draw vs Australia? Qualification scenarios explained
India’s chances to qualify for the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) 2025 final took another turn after the third Border-Gavaskar Test against Australia ended in a draw in Brisbane on Wednesday.
India’s WTC points percentage (PCT) slipped from 57.29 to 55.88. India remained in the third spot on the WTC standings, behind South Africa and Australia.
How many defeats can India afford from here?
To qualify for the WTC 2025 final, India cannot afford another defeat in their remaining two matches. Moreover, India can only afford a maximum of one draw in the remaining games. With the Gabba Test ending in a draw, Rohit and Co. can accumulate 138 points at a 60.52 PCT with two outright wins in Melbourne and Sydney, which cannot be overhauled by Australia. That would require India to pull off a stunning 3-1 coup Down Under against the defending WTC champions.
