Rohit & Co. eyeing for WTC final berth

After comprehensively winning the first two Tests and retaining the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, India inched closer towards a berth in the World Test Championship Final. However, their wait for a place in the finals continue following a loss in the third Test courtesy of a dominant performance put up by the Aussies.

On the other hand, Australia have cemented their place in the global red-ball finale and are on the cusp of playing either India or Sri Lanka at the Oval in London. Notably, the Lankan Lions will need to secure a series sweep in the Two Test matches against the BlackCaps to confirm their berth in the WTC Final.

Any result apart from two wins against the New Zealand side will see India sail through to the finals. In any case, Rohit Sharma and Co. will be eyeing for a win in the final red-ball clash against the Aussies and not depend on Sri Lanka’s result to stamp their ticket to the WTC final.
