ICC World Test Championship Points Table: What happened in Perth was recorded in history. Team India registered their biggest win on Australian soil by 295 runs on the fourth day of the first Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy played at the Optus Stadium in Perth and took a 1-0 lead in the five-match series. Chasing India’s target of 534 runs, Australia collapsed for 238 runs in 58.4 overs in front of the strong bowling of Bumrah (three wickets) and Mohammed Siraj (three wickets). In this way, Team India achieved the record for the biggest win in terms of runs on Australian soil and the second biggest win outside Asia. India had previously defeated Australia by 222 runs in Melbourne in December 1977. India’s biggest win outside Asia was by 318 runs against the West Indies at North Sound in August 2019.
Big change in the WTC points table
Due to this spectacular victory of India, a big change has been seen in the points table of the World Test Championship i.e. WTC. After losing the test series at home to New Zealand, team India lost the top position in the points table. Australia took the first position instead of India. But now Team India has once again established its dominance on the points table by defeating Australia at their own home.
