Following a 26-run loss to New Zealand at Wankhede Stadium, India’s chances of qualifying for the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025 final are precarious. Currently ranked second with a 58.33 PCT, India must win four out of five upcoming Tests against Australia, starting November 22, to secure their spot. Historically, India has faced challenges in previous WTC finals, losing in both 2021 and 2023.
