3rd Test: Down 0-2, India Play For Pride, WTC Points; New Zealand Aim For Clean Sweep
The World Test Championship: With both their reputation and stellar home record shattered by a New Zealand side that has won two Test matches in India for the first time in decades, Rohit Sharma's side will step into the Wankhede Stadium on Friday for the third and final Test of the series hoping to restore some pride.
A victory at Wankhede will help them improve their tally in the World Test Championship standings and more importantly will boost their confidence ahead of a crucial and lengthy Test tour of Australia, in which India will play five Test matches after a long gap.
Getting whitewashing 3-0 by a New Zealand side that reached India after being swept aside 2-0 by Sri Lanka a few weeks back is something they will have to avoid at any cost.
