Rain to Save India's WTC 2025 Final Hopes? Australia Clash Takes Dramatic Turn

As the third test between India and Australia hangs in the balance, the fate of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and India's hopes of qualifying for the WTC 2025 final hangs by a thread. However, a savior may come in the form of an unexpected guest – rain.

A washout on the final day of the test could have significant implications on the series and the World Test Championship 2025 table. If rain does intervene and declare the match a draw, the series will remain level at 1-1. India's only hope is that a draw in this match will allow them to retain any chance of qualifying for the WTC 2025 final.

The scenario is straightforward – a draw will give India the required momentum to compete for a place in the World Test Championship final. Australia must win the fourth test at Sydney to stay in the series and keep India under pressure. A loss in the final test would ensure the hosts the series win.

At this point, the final test match becomes incredibly crucial, as it determines whether or not India will advance to the WTC final and thereby stay in the running for the coveted title. The fourth test between the two rivals has amplified the pressure on the Indian cricket team to play better cricket and give themselves an opportunity to qualify for the World Test Championship final.
