The Indian team has the full-strength squad, with Rohit and Pujara at the top-order, while Virat and Rahane handling the middle-order. The emergence of Rishabh Pant has been exemplary, and Ashwin has contributed to both departments. The other bowlers, Axar and Kuldeep supported the team well in the second test match. The team needs to win 2 matches or the rest of the matches to obtain a ticket to the WTC Finals.
