Here's a look at the updated World Test Championship standings after the IND vs AUS Sydney loss. Can India still qualify for the WTC final after the Sydney loss?

Australia secured a place in the WTC Final with a six-wicket win over India at the Sydney Cricket Ground. India, missing key bowler Jasprit Bumrah, could not defend a fourth-innings target of 162. Australia will face South Africa in the WTC Final at Lord’s in June.

Here’s how the teams rank in the World Test Championship leaderboard after the Australia vs India 4th Test in Melbourne.

India were knocked out of the WTC final race as Australia secured their berth in the final against South Africa by clinching the Border-Gavaskar Trophy by a 3-1 margin in Sydney on Sunday.

Heading into the final few matches of the 2023-25 World Test Championship cycle, it seemed like almost a formality that India would confirm a spot at Lord’s for their third consecutive WTC final appearance.
