Australia have booked their place in the WTC finals after an emphatic victory over Team India by 9 wickets in Indore last week. The competition's final spot is down for two teams to take. One of the four games beginning on Wednesday between South Africa and West Indies does not hold any chance. That shifts the focus on the result of Sri Lanka vs New Zealand series which starts on the same day on the last Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy begins.

Australia were the number 1 team to seal their spot heading into the Test series against India. However, two heavy defeats including - a loss by innings and 123 runs in 1st games and loss by 6 wickets in the second saw Team India emerge as the number 1 team to seal the deal. Now the tables have turned with Australia winning the third game in dominant fashion.
