Zee News
New Zealand had started the WTC campaign on a poor note. The Kane Williamson-led side was held to a 1-1 draw in Sri Lanka in 2019 while they were thrashed 0-3 in Australia during the 2019-20 season.
Team India and New Zealand may be playing the final of the World Test Championship at a neutral venue, but it is Virat Kohli's side that has a psychological advantage as they have shown dominance away from home winning two out of the three series they have played overseas in the run-up to WTC final. In contrast, the Kane Williamson-led side’s run comprises the only series wins at home with both their overseas tours in the run-up to WTC final yielding no success for them. The Kiwis have played five series in the 2019-2021 WTC period and won three series at home against India, Pakistan, and West Indies which saw them enter the final on the basis of percentage of points. However, the second-placed team on the WTC points table had started the Test championship campaign on a poor note. The Kane Williamson-led side was held to a 1-1 draw in Sri Lanka in 2019 while they were thrashed 0-3 in Australia during the 2019-20 season.More Related News
