Team India Got Defeated in WTC

The Indian team had to face a crushing defeat at the hands of Australia in the final match of the World Test Championship. Both Indian batsman and bowler flopped badly in the title match. Batsmen like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Pujara disappointed a lot, while the pace and swing of Mohammed Shami and Siraj could not work for Team India in bowling. This was the second time when the Indian team reached the final of the WTC and tasted defeat. Earlier in the year 2021, New Zealand shattered the dream of the team. After the World Test Championship final, India will play the first series from the West Indies.
