New Zealand is poised to face off against India in the third and final Test of the three-match series. The Kiwis have already secured victory in the first two games and are now aiming to complete a whitewash over one of the most formidable teams on their home turf. Prior to this series, New Zealand had only managed to win one Test match in India. However, under the leadership of Tom Latham, they now have the chance to make history and achieve a clean sweep.
For the Indian team, this match is a must-win. While the outcome may not impact the series result, India must emerge victorious to keep their hopes of qualifying for the World Test Championship final alive. Rohit Sharma's squad needs to win four of the remaining six Test matches in this cycle to secure their spot. A loss in the final Test would make their upcoming series against Australia at home even more challenging.
