India reaches WTC finals as NZ beats SL in a thriller

The opponents for Australia in the World Test Championship final that will happen at the Oval this year have been confirmed. It will be India who is leading the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy. Yes, India has reached the finals of the World Test Championship, thanks to the heroics of Williamson.

New Zealand beat Sri Lanka in a thriller in the first test. Williamson scored a brilliant hundred in the fourth innings and the win was confirmed with the last ball. Earlier, rain erupted and curtailed the day’s play. With more than 250 to get in 50 overs, everyone thought the match is heading toward a draw.

However, the brilliant partnership between Williamson and Mitchell gave hope to NZ. Williamson batted till the end. With 8 to win in the final over, Williamson’s brilliant four toward the point changed the game totally. With this loss, Sri Lanka is out of contention, and without the result of the fourth test match in the BGT, India is in the finals.
