Ashes rivals Australia and England are placed third and fourth, respectively, in the WTC points table. The Aussies have 26 points, having secured two wins to go with one defeat and one draw. They were lucky to some extent in retaining the urn as the rain had the final say in the fourth Ashes 2023 Test played at Old Trafford in Manchester. Australia’s PCT is 54.17.
