ICC set to award standard points for each match won during second World Test Championship cycle
The Hindu
Instead of each series being worth the same number of points, 120, irrespective of whether the series is played over two Tests or five Tests, the next cycle will see each match being worth the same number of points - a maximum of 12 per match
The International Cricket Council (ICC) will award standardised 12 points for every match won during the second World Test Championship cycle which kicks off with the five-match series between India and England in August. Teams will get six points in case of a tie and four points if the match ends in a draw. That there would be changes to the points system was first declared by ICC interim CEO Geoff Allardice during a media interaction earlier this month.More Related News
