The third Test match between India and Australia is being played in Gabba from 14th December, which is on the verge of being canceled due to rain. In such a situation, what is going on in the minds of the fans is what will be the scenario regarding India’s World Test Championship 2025 final after the Gabba Test is canceled due to rain.
What if the third test is drawn?
To keep the hopes alive in the final of the World Test Championship 2025, it is very important for the Indian team to win the Gabba Test, but due to heavy rain the match is being greatly affected. If the match is canceled due to rain, then India will have to win the remaining two tests at any cost. Even if the result of the series is 3-2, then in this situation also Team India will have to depend on the result of the Test series to be held between Australia and Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka will have to win at least one test against Australia, only then India’s path will become easier.
