The very first edition of the ICC World Test Championship was a massive success as it managed to revive the love and excitement for Test Cricket in many.

The Kiwis emerged victorious in tournament as they beat Virat Kohli’s Team India in the Final held in Southampton.

The final will take place in 2023. According to the format of WTC, each team will play 3 home series and 3 away series in this cycle. There’s also a change in the points system. Instead of the entire series, points will be given on a match-by-match basis. Teams will be awarded a total of 12 points for each match they win in this cycle, six for a tie, four for a draw, and zero for a loss.

However, the percentage of points will continue to be the primary criteria for ranking. Hence, teams all over the world must gear up to make a mark in the second World Test Championship cycle. Powerhouses like New Zealand, India, and Australia are deemed favorites once again. However, with each team getting to play three home series, some upsets might also occur.
