The Updated ICC World Test Championship 2025-27 Points Table has been released after the conclusion of the second and final Test match of the series between the Pakistan National Cricket Team and the South Africa National Cricket Team.
The Shan Masood-led Pakistan National Cricket Team and Aiden Markram-led South Africa National Cricket Team went head-to-head with each other in the second game from October 20 to 23 at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first in the match. They did a fantastic job and piled up a big score of 333 on the board while batting on a track that offered some help to the spinners.
Abdullah Shafique scored a good half-century while opening the innings, and skipper Shan Masood led from the front by playing a brilliant knock of 87 runs, emerging as the top scorer. Other than the aforementioned batters, Saud Shakeel smashed a good fifty while Salman Agha hit a good 45 runs.
South Africa, meanwhile, in their first innings, were provided a good start by Tristan Stubbs and Tony de Zorzi, who scored 76 and 55 runs. However, the best performances came from the bat of Senuran Muthusamy and Kagiso Rabada, who shocked Pakistan bowlers to smash 89* and 71 runs.

In their second innings with the bat, Pakistan came up with a horrible batting show. They lost the top three for just 16 runs and came instantly on the back foot. Babar Azam tried to show some fight and scored a half-century, but was unable to convert it into a big score.
Other than Babar Azam, Salman Agha (28) and Mohammad Rizwan (18) chipped in with crucial runs before Pakistan were bundled out for 138 runs.
Chasing a small target of 68 runs, South Africa easily got past the finish line in 12.3 overs to bag an 8-wicket win. It was the first time in 18 years that South Africa beat Pakistan in Pakistan in Test cricket.
