table if Galle Test gets washed out)As the WTC table shows, India’s position in the WTC points table won’t change, as they would remain fifth, but their PCT would drop, which could derail their WTC final charge.Currently, India’s WTC PCT is 48.15, but if the Galle Test gets abandoned due to rain, the Shubman Gill-led side will only get 4 points for a drawn game, and their overall PCT would decline.India’s position will remain the same, but a win against Sri Lanka will give India 12 points. However, if rain spoils the Test match and the game gets washed out, India will only receive 4 points, 8 fewer than what they would have got after winning.Also, with Bangladesh winning against Australia, the Tigers will create a gap between them and India in terms of PCT, and unlike India, Bangladesh’s WTC position will be strengthened.Bangladesh's win against Australia further dents India's WTC final hopesIn an unexpected turn of events, Bangladesh stunned Australia in the first Test in Darwin to take a surprising 1-0 lead in the series.The Asian side won their first-ever Test in Australia, and that has strengthened their position in the WTC final race. Before the Australia game, Bangladesh had a PCT of 58.33, but after the win, it has jumped to 66.67, and they have created a major gap with the Indian side.While the win over Australia has helped Bangladesh further strengthen their position, it has given a dent to India, who now have to win 7 out of 8 Tests to qualify for the finals.Also Read: Mehidy Hasan Miraz Delivers Unplayable Delivery, Claims Massive Record
