There has been a change in the ICC World Test Championship standings after Pakistan’s seven-wicket win in the first Test against South Africa in Karachi.

The hosts, who were in the sixth position on the table with a win percentage of 30.7, have now overtaken South Africa to take the fifth spot. They picked up 60 points with the win at Karachi, reaching 226 points.

The loss saw South Africa’s win percentage drop from 40 to 34.3, and they now have just 144 out of 420 possible points.

Here are the updated ICC World Test Championship standings after the first Pakistan v South Africa Test in Karachi:

India, Australia and New Zealand continue to dominate the top of the standings. The four-match India-England series starting February 5 will play a huge role in determining the standings.

The final of the inaugural ICC World Test Championship will be at the Lord’s Cricket Ground held later this year.
