Rohit Sharma & Co ‘s journey to the World Test Championship final has become a little more difficult as a result of India’s nine-wicket loss in Nagpur. Australia has guaranteed their place in the World Test Championship final, which will be contested at the Oval in the first week of June, while India still needs to win the fourth and final Test in Ahmedabad.
India will qualify with a win in Ahmedabad. A defeat or even a draw would force them to rely on New Zealand for qualification. Only Sri Lankan team has a chance to advance to the WTC championship game at India’s cost. In the event that India loses or ties the test in Ahmedabad, New Zealand should defeat or tie Sri Lanka in at least one of the two Tests.
A 3-1 series victory and an unaided passage to the final would be ideal for India. Yet, even if they are unable to do so, India can take some solace in the fact that New Zealand has a successful home record and recently held England to a 1-1 draw. With their recent Test performances, it won’t be simple for Sri Lanka to win 2-0.
