WTC Final Qualification: Exact Results India Need To Qualify For Title-Decider

The result pushed Australia to the second spot on the points table while India claimed the top position. A few days later, South Africa's triumph over Sri Lanka at home saw the Proteas surpass Australia to claim the No. 2 spot, pushing the men from Down Under to No. 3. While there still remain a few months before the WTC points table is finalised, the situation is already looking quite nervy.

Kwena Maphaka Included After Gerald Coetzee Ruled Out Of South Africa's Second Test Against Sri Lanka And Pakistan Tour

Uncapped Kwena Maphaka has been added to South Africa's Test squad after fast-bowler Gerald Coetzee has been ruled out of the second Test against Sri Lanka and the upcoming all-format series against Pakistan due to a groin injury. South Africa moved up to second place in the World Test Championship table, only behind India, after their emphatic 233 win over Sri Lanka at the Kingsmead Cricket Stadium on Saturday. The Proteas bowling attack, spearheaded by Marco Jansen, ripped through the Sri Lankan batting line-up in the second innings as they bundled their opponents for a mere score of 42. Jansen became the first left-arm seamer to take a ten-wicket haul for South Africa since their re-admission into cricket in 1991.

Gautam Gambhir's Coaching Record Receives Big Verdict From Ex-India Star: "Unfair..."

Former India middle-order batter Ajay Jadeja on Saturday defended head coach Gautam Gambhir from the criticism he has received following the 0-3 drubbing against New Zealand, saying it's "unfair" given the short time he has been in the new role. Gambhir, the hero of the 2011 World Cup title triumph, took over the reins of the India team in July after Rahul Dravid's tenure ended. Following a bright start against Sri Lanka in the T20I series, India lost the ODI series to the home side. The Test team then thrashed Bangladesh 2-0 before a nightmare outing against New Zealand put Gambhir under massive scrutiny.
