Team India is still in the race to reach the final

On the other hand, when the Indian team traveled to Bangladesh earlier, they managed to win both the matches in the series. After this, Australia has reached the final by winning two matches in a row. Now Team India’s progress to the final will depend a lot on the Ahmedabad Test and the Sri Lankan game. The ICC has already announced that the final match of the World Test Championship will start from June 7 and will continue till June 11. At the same time, the date of June 13 has been reserved, so that the match can be played for one more day if rain disrupts it. However, it remains to be seen how the Indian team returns to Ahmedabad after losing the Indore Test.
