Here is the updated table.
Grrrrrr........fuck that series in Oz annoys me !!!!!!!!!
So correct me if I'm wrong but if England didn't drop a test to the Windies ( as they shouldn't have to be honest ) would they be ahead of the BCs ?

No, if England had beaten West Indies they would have 332 points from 480 so a percentage of 69.16%.
I believe that the Australia/SA series hasn't yet been completely confirmed yet so may be still cancelled. If India beat Australia in Brisbane, Australia drop below 70% so I think that is our best chance at the moment.

I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed and that table makes absolutely no sense to me

The table on wikipedia might be easier.
The 'PC' column is the total points contested for each team - in NZ's case 600 - so NZ are on 420 points out of 600 possible points - which is why they are sitting at 70%.
The reason for this is points are given differently depending on the length of the series.
See below.

Ah yep, that looks better.
Is the .5 cos they played at a neutral venue ?

@MN5 I think maybe that is referring to a test series that was only half-complete?
So a 2 test series where it got cancelled after 1 test or something?
You could be right but I thought teams got more for winning away from home or did I imagine that ?

I can't find any reference to that. The second table above is how points are achieved.

Not sure how right this guy is ...
And am assuming his % probabilities are assuming each of the 2,700 odd outcomes have equal chance of occurring, when of course one team is likely to be more favoured over another in any given game, mesding wuth his actual probabilities ...
Or he MAY be full of shit ...
