WTC Points Table 2025–27: Revised Team Standings Following New Zealand’s Outstanding Leap Against the West Indies in the Third Test
WTC Points Table 2025–27: The third and final Test match at Bay Oval saw New Zealand defeat the West Indies by 323 runs thanks to a dominant effort. They won the series 2-0 after bowling the visitors out for 138 runs in their second innings.
On December 16, Royal Challengers Bengaluru signed fast bowler Jacob Duffy in the IPL 2026 auction. Duffy had an outstanding performance, taking five wickets for the Black Caps and sending three Windies hitters back to the pavilion with spinner Ajaz Patel. In the first innings, Duffy also claimed four wickets, earning him the title of Player of the Series.
According to the most recent reports, the victory also gave New Zealand a significant boost in the WTC 2025–27 points table, as they moved up from third to second place. The 2021 WTC champions now have a 77.77 PCT% and 28 points. They overtook South Africa, who now have a 75 PCT% record.
However, at 4.16 PCT% (down from 4.76 PCT%), the West Indies continue to be at the bottom of the points table. The West Indies will undoubtedly not advance to the WTC finals in 2025–2027 after putting up a lackluster effort in the previous three tournaments. In the current WTC cycle, the Caribbeans have lost seven of the eight Test matches they have played.
