The final match of the ICC World Test Championship between India and New Zealand is being played in Southampton. The third day of the Test was entirely dominated by New Zealand.  In front of the lethal bowling of Kyle Jamieson, the Indian batting order was shattered like a pack of cards and the visitors were all out for 217 runs.

The Indian bowlers failed to put any pressure on the Kiwi batsmen despite the cloud cover. Meanwhile, a video of Mohammad Siraj's off-field antics during rain-hit Day 4 of Ind vs NZ WTC Final match went viral on social media, in which he was seen talking on a walkie-talkie.

In the viral video, Mohammed Siraj can be seen sitting in the stands with a walkie-talkie in his hand. 

Here's how fans recated on Twitter:

The Indian bowlers could not leave much of an impact in the 49 overs they bowled on the third day of the Ind vs NZ WTC Final Test.  At the end of the day's play, New Zealand scored 101 runs for the loss of 2 wickets. Ishant Sharma and Ravichandran Ashwin took one wicket each. 

This final match, which started on June 18, has reached its fourth day. Due to rain throughout day in Southampton, the play of the fourth day of the WTC Final was called off without a single ball being bowled. In this way, so far two out of four days of the Test match have been affected by rain.

At present, the weather forecast for Tuesday, June 22 is not very good. It will be cloudy and apart from morning, there may be light showers during the day and evening as well.  However, clear weather is predicted for the reserve day i.e. Wednesday, June 23.
