WTC Final, India or New Zealand: Who will be crowned champions if historic final ends as a draw?

World Test Championship final: The much-anticopated final is heading towards a likely draw as two days have been washed out without a ball bowled due to rain in Southampton. New Zealand are at 101 for 2, trailing India's first innings total of 217 by 116 runs.

Two full days have been lost in the World Test Championship final due to rain in Southampton. The historic final between India and New Zealand is heading likely towards a draw despite the availability of a reserve day on Wednesday, June 23. On Monday, Day 4 action was abandoned without a ball being bowled after persistent rain in Southampton. Players and fans were made to wait for the action to resume but it never happened as a continuous drizzle and a wet outfield at the Ageas Bowl made it impossible for the officials to think about restarting play. Notably, the opening day of the much-anticipated final was washed out as well. Only 141.1 overs of play has been posisble over 4 days at the Ageas Bowl. World No. 1 New Zealand are on top, having made 101 for 2 after bowling out India for 217 on Day 3.
