South Africa Makes a Thrilling Win Against Pakistan to Reach WTC Final!
South Africa won the first Test by 2 wickets in a thrilling match against Pakistan, securing a place in the ICC World Test Championship 2025 Final. With this victory, South Africa has become the first team to qualify for the final.
In a tense match, South Africa needed 148 runs to win, a target that seemed achievable. However, Pakistan’s excellent bowling attack put South Africa on the back foot. In a match played in Centurion, South Africa lost 8 wickets but managed to reach the target, qualifying for the final.
With this win, South Africa has accumulated 88 points from 11 matches, with 7 wins and 3 losses, securing the top position with a win percentage of 66.67%. This victory has raised concerns for Team India, as only one spot remains, and there is now a fierce battle between Australia and India for the final spot. Australia, with 9 wins and 4 losses from 15 matches, has 106 points and a win percentage of 58.89%, sitting in second place. India is in third place with 9 wins and 6 losses from 17 matches, totaling 114 points, but their win percentage stands at 55.88%.
Currently, India is playing the fourth Test against Australia in Melbourne. To qualify for the final, India needs to win this match and then also win the final match in Sydney. If India loses either of these two matches, their chances of reaching the final will diminish significantly.
