Induia has only a remote chance of reaching the final of World Test Championship 2025. South Africa has already reached the final of the championship.
Australia has strengthened its position by winning against India in the fourth Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy-2025.
Australia is just one win away
The ICC said that Australia is just one win away from entering the final of the World Test Championship. In such a situation, it will be very important for India to win the next Test match.
The ICC has told that India will have to win the last Test against Australia.
After that, India will have to hope that Sri Lanka wins the Test series between Sri Lanka and Australia or the series is drawn 0-0.
If this happens, India can reach the final. Obviously, India will have to depend on Sri Lanka's performance for this and also win last test against Australia.
The fifth Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia is to be held on Friday (3 January 2025).
Jasprit Bumrah can create a new record
Meanwhile, the ICC said that Indian cricket team's fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will create a new record as soon as he takes six wickets in the next match.
ICC posted on social media platform X that if Jasprit Bumrah takes six wickets in the next match, he will become the cricketer to take the most wickets in a Test series in the history of Indian cricket.
Jasprit Bumrah has taken 30 wickets so far in this series of Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Jasprit Bumrah has recently also become the first fast bowler of India to take 200 wickets by playing the least number of Test matches. Bumrah has achieved this feat in his 44th Test match.
Australia has won two matches in the five-match series. Whereas India has won one match and one was drawn.
Indian cricket team will have to win the fifth Test match to level the series.
