NEW DELHI: India's dreams of making it to the World Test Championship (WTC) final were severely dented after New Zealand handed them a historic 0-3 series whitewash at home. It was their first-ever series loss in such a manner on home soil, as India lost the third Test by 25 runs at the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai.
Consequently, India slipped to second place in the WTC standings with 58.33 percentage points (PCT), trailing Australia's 62.50 PCT.
