India To Face 3 Point Penalty In Race To WTC Final If Pitch Rated 'Poor'

By IANS News February 16, 2021 • 11:05 AM View: 2747

With the MA Chidambaram Stadium pitch for the second Test helping spin bowlers from the first session of the first Test, there have been calls to dock India points in the World Test Championship (WTC) table for producing a below-par surface even as Virat Kohli's boys are fighting to qualify for the WTC final.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) rules say that if a pitch is rated poor then the home team would be docked three points.
