The ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia is vital in the World Test Championship. After the victory in the first two Test matches, India’s path to reach the final was easy, then after the win in the third Test match, Australia confirmed its seat in the last.
In such a situation, it has become a do-or-die situation for India in the fourth test. But after the strong batting of the Australia team in the fourth Test, Team India has now got the support of the veteran. He has clearly said that India is about to play the final match of the World Test Championship.
Sanjay Manjrekar Said India Has Reached WTC Final
India has played the final match in the World Test Championship before. India is looking for an important victory in the fourth Test match to play the second consecutive final. But after the strong comeback of the Australia team, this victory is not looking that easy.
In such a situation, if the Indian team does not win the Test match, the hopes of the team’s final can get a big blow. In such a situation, veteran Sanjay Manjrekar said India has already reached the finals.
In his statement, Sanjay Manjrekar said it is tough for the Sri Lankan team to defeat the Kiwi team in two consecutive Tests. They have accepted that India has reached the finals. They said,
I think India has already reached the final of the World Test Championship, but you know India will officially reach the final only after winning the fourth match. The Border Gavaskar Trophy has been very exciting.
“Especially the return of Australia in the Indore Test and this ongoing match at the Narendra Modi Stadium. All the tickets for this stadium have been sold. He also said about the ongoing series between Sri Lanka and New Zealand that I do not think Sri Lanka will be able to beat New Zealand.
WTC Final Will Be Played In June
India’s final ticket depended on how it performed in the series against Australia. After winning two consecutive Test matches, there has been a significant change in the equations due to the defeat in the third Test match. The Australian team has confirmed its place in June’s final game at the Oval Stadium in London. Now India and Sri Lanka are left in the race.
By winning the fourth test, India can directly qualify for the final. But if India cannot register a win, it will have to depend on the defeat of the Sri Lankan team to make it to the finals. If the Sri Lankan team wins the series 2-0 against New Zealand, its final place will be almost confirmed. Now it will be interesting to see whether India wins the Ahmedabad Test or will have to depend on Sri Lanka’s defeat.
