Correct Answer : Option (A) - Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka top the table with 100 PCT having won both their matches of the cycle followed by Australia (83.33 PCT) at second and Pakistan (75 PCT) at the third spot.
England are at the bottom of the pile with 10.41 PCT. The Joe Root-led side has won just one of their 10 Tests while losing five and drawing two.
Notably, India have also been docked three points for slow over-rate while England have lost 10 points for the offense. As per ICC rules, for slow over-rates “teams will lose one championship point for each over short."
India kicked off their WTC cycle with a five-match Test tour of England last year which was unfortunately cut down to four with the final match postponed due to covid issues. India won two Tests on the tour while losing once.
India next hosted New Zealand for a two-Test series, played in Kanpur and Mumbai. The first Test ended in a draw before India registered a massive win in the second to seal the series 1-0.
India are scheduled to host Sri Lanka next for a two-Test series in February-March this year.
