New Zealand’s bad over price in the Christchurch Test suit cost them 3 WTC factors, jeopardising their possibilities for a final berth somewhat.
New Zealand and England were punished 3 factors (and 15 percent suit charges) each for slow-moving over prices in the just recently wrapped up Test suit atChristchurch While England were not in the race for the final, New Zealand were– and the charge injured their reason. This is how the groups stand after the reductions:
| Team | Matches | Won | Lost | Drawn | Points deducted | Points | PCT |
| India | 15 | 9 | 5 | 1 | 2 | 110 | 61.11 |
| South Africa | 9 | 5 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 64 | 59.25 |
| Australia | 13 | 8 | 3 | 1 | 10 | 90 | 57.69 |
| Sri Lanka | 10 | 5 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 60 | 50 |
| New Zealand | 12 | 6 | 6 | 0 | 3 | 69 | 47.92 |
| England | 20 | 10 | 9 | 1 | 22 | 102 | 42.5 |
| Pakistan | 10 | 4 | 6 | 0 | 8 | 40 | 33.33 |
| West Indies | 10 | 2 | 6 | 2 | 0 | 32 | 26.67 |
| Bangladesh | 11 | 3 | 7 | 0 | 3 | 33 | 25 |
New Zealand’s PCT went down from 50.00 to 47.92, and England’s from 43.75 to 42.50 Both groups have 2 Test matches left in the organization phase, versus each various other in the continuous collection– at Wellington from December 6 and at Hamilton from December 14.
How did the charge pain New Zealand?
Two success will certainly take New Zealand to 55.36 (this made use of to be 57.14 prior to the charge). To get approved for the final, New Zealand need to make certain no greater than one group coatings over them.
All is not over. A 2-3 loss in Australia will certainly take India to 53.51 Now, if Australia shed 0-2 in Sri Lanka afterwards, they will certainly go down to 55.26 Sri Lanka, on the other hand, will certainly need to shed their Test suit versus South Africa and boil down to 53.85
That will certainly place all 3 of them listed below the 55.36– mark. South Africa’s collection versus Pakistan will, because situation, be unimportant to New Zealand’s reason.

Is this the only method for New Zealand? Not rather. If Australia win all 4 of their Tests (to put it simply, beat India 4-1 and Sri Lanka 2-0), they will certainly get to 71.05, yet India will certainly go down to 48.25 Alternately, if India win 4-1, they will certainly get to 64.04 and Australia 55.26 ( thinking a 2-0 win in Sri Lanka).
In either situation, if Sri Lanka win their various other Test, in South Africa, and South Africa draw 1-1 (or price even worse) versus Pakistan, there will certainly be just one group over 55.36 and New Zealand will certainly undergo.
