Opportunity For New Zealand To Boost Chances In ICC World Test Championship

By IANS News December 25, 2020 • 10:21 AM View: 1210

New Zealand will get a chance to improve their prospects in the ongoing ICC World Test Championship when they take on Pakistan in a two-match home series starting Saturday at the Bay Oval.

New Zealand won by identical 2-0 margins against both the West Indies and India in their two previous series and are third in terms of percentage points won, the factor that determines the final placings rather than total points won, following a change to the points system owing to the Covid-19 disruption.
