WTC Final 2023: Team India can become World Test Champion by breaking this 121&year&old record

The final match of the World Test Championship being played between India and Australia at The Oval in London has now entered the fourth day. Australia's team scored 123 runs at the loss of four wickets till the end of the third day's play in the second innings. With this, the lead of the Kangaroos has now increased to 296 runs. If today Australia's team manages to make a lead of 400, then it will be very difficult for Team India to achieve the target in the fourth innings. But, cricket is a game of uncertainties. Nothing can be said when what will happen in this. If Team India manages to break the 121-year-old record, then victory will be well within their grasp.

Let us tell you that the highest run chase in the fourth innings so far on the ground of the Oval has been 263 runs. Now the challenge before the Indian team is to stop Australia at least on the score. Today on the fourth day, if the Indian team all outs the Kangaroo team early and their top order performs well then nothing is impossible.

The biggest target could be chased only 263 runs at The Oval in London. In 1902, England beat Australia by one wicket and chased this run. Since then no one has been able to break this record. If Team India has to win this ICC title then it will be necessary to break this record. If batsmen like Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Cheteshwar Pujara, and Ajinkya Rahane work, then this record can also be broken.

Please tell that Team India could not perform anything special in the first innings. Captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and chose to bowl first. After which the Australian team came out to bat and scored 469 runs in the first innings. In response, the top four batsmen of Team India were disappointed. However, thanks to the half-centuries of Ajinkya Rahane and Shardul Thakur, the team managed to score 296 runs in the first innings.
