Team India suffered a crushing defeat by 9 wickets at the hands of Australia in the third Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Due to the flop show of the batsmen, the Indian team lost the match in two and a half days.
With this defeat, the wait for the Indian team to make it to the World Test Championship final has also become longer. In the story, we will know what are the equations ahead for India and what needs to be done to make it to the finals.
If we win the fourth test then the place will be made
The Indian team will have to win the fourth match of the series to make it to the WTC final on their own. By doing this, the Indian team will reach the final by being number two. Australia is set to finish first and reach the final. After the defeat in the third Test, India has 60.29% points. At the same time, Australia has got 68.52% points.
what will happen if you lose the fourth test?
If the Indian team loses the fourth test match as well, then 56.94% of the points will be left. However, despite this, she will not be out of the race. After this, India will have to depend on the result of the two-Test series between New Zealand and Sri Lanka in New Zealand. This series is starting on 9th March.
If the Indian team loses the fourth Test match as well and the Sri Lankan team defeats New Zealand in both Tests, then Team India will be out of the final race. In this situation, Sri Lanka will get 61.11% points.
However, if the New Zealand team also manages to draw the 1st Test, then the Indian team will reach the finals despite losing two Tests in the series against Australia. If the Sri Lankan team wins the series 1-0, then it will have only 55.55% points.
Chance to play the final for the second time in a row
India has a chance to play the WTC final for the second time in a row. India had also made it to the final of the first WTC, where they had to face defeat at the hands of New Zealand.
The final match will be held at the Oval
The final match of WTC will be played from June 7 to 11 at the Oval Ground in England. The first final took place in England itself. Then this match took place at the Rose Bowl Ground in Southampton.
