India have qualified for the final of the World Test Championship (WTC) where they will take on familiar foes in the summit clash at The Oval starting June 7. India expectedly were the front-runners to join Australia, who became the first team to secure their WTC final berth after defeating India by nine wickets in the third Test of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar series held in Indore. However, a dramatic win, which came on the back of one-run victory over England after following on in Wellington, put New Zealand 1-0 up in the two-match series and ended Sri Lanka's hopes of playing in the WTC final. 

The Black Caps were short of eight runs in the last over with three wickets intact. Matt Henry's wicket in the third ball of the last over only made matters worse, as five more runs were needed of the last three balls. Just when Williamson's cracking boundary in the next ball made our hearts come in our mouths, Asitha Fernando fought back and bowled a dot ball. The winning run came when Williamson and the injured Neil Wagner ran a bye, with the former sealing a victory by diving full length to get his bat down in the crease as a fine direct hit touched the stumps.
