The 2021–2023 ICC World Test Championship is the second edition of the ICC World Test Championship of Test cricket.[1][2][3] It started on 4 August 2021 and is scheduled to finish on 31 March 2023.[4]

The five-match Pataudi Trophy between England and India started 4 August 2021 began the second cycle of the World Test Championship.[5][6][7] That series along with the Ashes, in December 2021, will be the only two series comprising five Tests in the second WTC cycle.[8][9][10] New Zealand are the defending champions.[11][12] In September 2022, the International Cricket Council (ICC) announced that the final of this edition of the World Test Championship would be played at The Oval in June 2023.[13]

Format

The tournament will be played over two years, with 69 matches over 27 series scheduled for the league stage from which the top two teams will advance to a final.[14] Each team is scheduled to play six series, with three at home and three away. Each series will consist of two to five Test matches. Each participant will play between 12 and 22 matches.[15] Each match is scheduled for a duration of five days.

Points system

The points system was changed from the previous edition. In this edition, 12 points would be available each match regardless of how many matches there are in a series. A win is worth all 12 points, a tie is worth 6 points each, a draw is worth 4 points each, and a loss is worth 0 points. A team that was behind the required over rate at the end of a match would have one point deducted for each over it was behind. As in the previous edition, teams are ranked in the league table based on percentage of total points won out of total points contested.[16][17][18]

Schedule

The schedule for the World Test Championship was announced by the International Cricket Council (ICC) on 20 June 2018, as part of the 2018–2023 Future Tours Programme.[20] Rather than being a full round-robin tournament in which everyone played everyone else equally, each team played only six of the other eight as in the previous cycle.[21]
