Team India is in a do or die situation. As the BGT series is tied 1-1. To get the direct spot in the World Test Championship 2023-25 finals, team India has to win the remaining 3 Test matches of the 5 match Test series. Â
If India lost any of the matches, they will be in difficulty to get into the WTC finals. Team India has already gone through a white wash by New Zealand that has depleted their WTC final chances.
