India leads the 4-match series 2-1 after winning the first two Tests comprehensively.

The third Test between Ind and Aus saw the visitors handing a humiliating 9-wicket win to India to win their 1st Test in the series, qualify for WTC Final.

If India loses Ind vs Aus 4th Test: Sri Lanka would have to whitewash New Zealand to stay in contention for a spot in WTC final.
