The Indian cricket team has once again come very close to playing the final of the World Test Championship. Although his place has not been confirmed yet, the possibilities seem quite high. After losing three consecutive Tests at home against New Zealand, these prospects were a bit bleak, but now that the Indian team has won the first Test in Australia, opportunities have started appearing again. Meanwhile, if Team India defeats Australia in the second Test also, then it will not only get closer to the WTC final, but will also become the team that has won the most matches on foreign soil in the World Test Championship. The work which no team has been able to do till date.
India and England are the teams that have won the most matches on foreign soil in WTC.
The Indian team still has to play four more matches in this cycle of the World Test Championship. All these matches are to be held in this series from Australia. That is why this series becomes very important for the Indian team. Meanwhile, the Indian team has so far won 12 matches on foreign soil in the history of the World Test Championship. If the team is successful in winning the next match, it will be its 13th win on foreign soil. India has played 25 Test matches on foreign soil since 2019 and has managed to win 12 of them. Right now the England team is also running at par with India.
England cricket team is also on par with India
If we talk about England, so far they have played 30 matches on foreign soil in the World Test Championship, out of which they have won 12 matches. That means the teams of India and England are currently on par. But as soon as they win one match, the Indian team will reach number one and will also create history. Even though the England team is now out of the race for the final of the World Test Championship, it still has to play a few more matches in this cycle. This means that this ups and downs will continue between these two teams. It is important for India that the team wins all its remaining matches against Australia, so that it remains the team that has won the most matches on foreign soil, and also gets its place in the final of the World Test Championship without any hassle.
Australia has won a total of 10 test matches on foreign soil.
Talking about Australia, it is currently at third place. Australia has so far played 22 matches in the World Test Championship on foreign soil and has won 10 of them. In the series currently being played against India, even if the team wins a match, it will not have any impact on its health, because here we are talking about winning the Test match on foreign soil. But the Australian team is currently playing at home. It remains to be seen whether Team India, captained by Rohit Sharma, creates this record by winning the very next match or whether it has to wait a little longer.
