The Indian cricket team, led by Rohit Sharma, is preparing to defend its honour as it faces New Zealand in the third and final Test at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai, starting tomorrow at 9.30 AM IST. With an 18-series winning streak shattered and a daunting 2-0 series deficit, India now fights to avoid its first-ever clean sweep in a home Test series.

After suffering their first home series defeat in over a decade, India needs a victory to stay in the running for a World Test Championship final berth at Lord’s in June next year. New Zealand won the first test by eight wickets at Bengaluru and the second test by 113 runs at Pune.
