    What's the story

    England annihilated South Africa with an innings win at Old Trafford to level the series 1-1.

    SA's shoddy show dropped them to the second spot in the ICC World Test Championship 2021-23 standings.

    They now own a Points Percentage (PCT) of 66.67.

    Meanwhile, England improved their PCT to 35.19 while being seated seventh.

    We look at the updated ICC WTC table.

    In response, England rode on centuries from Ben Stokes and Ben Foakes to post 415/9d.

    In the second innings, SA were once again poor.
