The race for the World Test Championship final is getting tighter. The 2025-27 cycle has reached a key stage. Australia are at the top of the table. They have won 8 of their 10 matches. South Africa are second. They have 36 points from 4 games. The two sides will now play each other. Their three-match series begins on October 9.
There have been some big results in recent weeks. Bangladesh started their series in Australia with a historic win in the first Test. Australia then bounced back to win the second match and level the series. India beat Sri Lanka by 165 runs in Galle. But Sri Lanka fought hard in Colombo and earned a draw. Sonal Dinusha played a major role in that effort. England were very strong against Pakistan. That gave them a 3-0 series sweep.
The standings will keep changing as more matches are played. The 2026-27 season should bring more close contests and shifts in the table.
