インドが超過料金に対して罰金を科せられた場合、WTCポイント表はどうなるでしょうか?

インド、オーストラリア、南アフリカが決勝への出場権を争うため、世界テスト選手権 (WTC) のポイントテーブルは試合ごとに変わります。

A slow over rate could significantly impact the World Test Championship (WTC) 2024-25 standings. In the England vs New Zealand series, both teams faced a three-point penalty for slow over rates, causing New Zealand to drop to fifth place. While India aims for a win, avoiding a points deduction for slow over rate remains crucial if victory eludes them in IND vs AUS 2nd Test.

What will happen in WTC points table if India is fined for slow over rate?

The India vs Australia match was halted twice due to a floodlight malfunction while India was bowling. This delay forced India to make up for the lost time. During the match, India’s pacers were bowling the majority of the overs, with Ashwin being the only spinner among the five bowlers. Pacers tend to bowl slower overs due to their long run-ups, while spinners can complete their overs more quickly. Australia, despite being behind on the over rate, won’t be fined as they dismissed India in just 40 overs.

India started bowling at 7:27 PM (Australia time) and completed the final over at 10:05 PM, meaning they bowled about 12-13 overs per hour, falling short of the required 14 overs per hour. If they fail to make up for this discrepancy, they could face a fine.

Currently in second place, India risks dropping to third if they face a points deduction, allowing South Africa to climb up. Meanwhile, the Proteas are playing Sri Lanka, and a South African victory combined with an Indian loss could further shake up the WTC standings.
