WTC 2025-27 points table will come into play in this series
AUS lead the way with 100 PCT% with IND in fourth spot
West Indies need a positive result after their 0-3 whitewash back home
The Indian team, led by Shubman Gill, will face West Indies cricket team in a two-match Test series starting from October 2, Thursday in Ahmedabad. The second Test will be played at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium from Oct 10-14. The series victory will mean a lot for Gill and company as they will earn 24 WTC points and their PCT% will rise to 61.90.
However, if India do go on to lose both their games, their PCT% will drop to 33.33. If both matches end in a draw, IND's PCT% will fall to 42.85. However, a 1-0 series victory sees them earn PCT% 52.38 and if they lose and draw one, their PCT% will be at 38.
As of now, West Indies have no points in their bag after their 0-3 whitewash at the hands of Australia in the WTC 2025-27 table. However, a series victory could see them pip India and take fourth spot.
