Tabla de puntos del WTC 2023-25: Ben Stokes, sorprendido después de los puntos de set de ENG y NZ, dice 'Bien hecho ICC'

El capitán de Inglaterra, Ben Stokes, no está contento, ya que tanto su equipo como Nueva Zelanda obtuvieron los tres puntos mientras mantuvieron el ritmo bajo durante todo el partido en Christchurch. Esto lo llevó a escribir “Bien por ti, ICC” en su historia de Instagram. Este no fue el caso, todos los jugadores fueron multados con el 15% […]

England skipper Ben Stokes is not a happy man, after all his side and New Zealand, both were docked three points for maintaining slow over rates throughout the Christchurch match. That propelled him to write, “Good on you ICC”, in his Instagram story. That was not it, all the players were fined 15% of their match fees for the same — for the first NZ vs ENG Test at the Hagley Oval.

The post read, “Good on you ICC. Finished the game with 10 hours of play still left.” Meanwhile, this is not the only time that England have been on the receiving end. In fact, they have been at a loss of 22 WTC points in the 2023-25 cycle. 19 of those points came during the 2023 Ashes series.

Now, this means that England are currently sixth in the WTC points table, and are not in contention for a spot in the WTC final. On the other hand, New Zealand dropped one rung, from fourth to fifth. A win in the next two matches can only take them to 55.36%, that won’t be enough to take them to the finals.

As far as the current situation in the WTC points table is concerned, India top the charts with 61.11%, followed by South Africa at 59.26%, and Australia at 57.69%. In this current cycle, only 15 matches are left, and no team has booked their berth for the WTC final, as yet.
