South Africa only one win behind from WTC final

Famous cricket nations like New Zealand, India, Australia, and South Africa are competing in the race to grab a spot in the finals of the World Test Championship.

Drama continues in the Border Gavaskar Series as India and Aussie squad fight amongst each other to secure their spot in the final.
