Cricket: World Test Championship: Elusive road ahead for Lankans for finals

Sri Lanka, in third-placed, do have a chance if they sweep New Zealand away from home, they will earn to 61.11%. In that case, they would need India to either win 4-0 against Australia or for the series to end in a draw, or for Australia to win the series so they can finish above India.

If Sri Lanka draw the series 1-1, they will finish on 52.78%. For them to qualify with that percentage, they will need India to get no more than 12 points from the series against Australia (3-1 or 1-0 series defeat), and for South Africa to get no more than 16 (1-0 series win).
