  1. Sachin Tendulkar Believes Pace and Bounce in Pitch Can Be Helpful In WTC Final India and New Zealand are preparing for the inaugural edition of the World Test Championship Final in Southampton from June 18. Both teams have played some wonderful cricket in the league phase that’s why they have reached this far as well. While many believe India are underdogs going in the final considering their recent form, New Zealand are considered as favourites in English conditions as they have played two Test matches against England recently and won the series 1-0 as well. However, the batting maestro, Sachin Tendulkar doesn’t believe India is underdogs in the final as well.

  2. “I don’t agree that India is the underdogs. We have played some terrific cricket to get here. Take Australia tour’s example, almost 10-11 players were not available and the guys who were on the bench were asked to play. A couple of them were actually practice bowlers, they ended up playing and they delivered,” said Tendulkar while speaking to CNN News18. He continued: “That speaks volumes of our bench strength. How we’ve been able to deliver that knockout bunch in Brisbane has been truly remarkable. So, by no means I would say we are underdogs. Yes, we haven’t had enough match practice. New Zealand has had the best preparation possible with a two-test series (in England) before this game. But that’s how the game is and we have to accept what has come. I would focus on what we need to do next and not what people have been thinking because I don’t think that’s right.” Meanwhile, Sachin said India can play well in the final despite all the odds. While talking about the Southampton pitch can offer a pace and bounce, he added that it will help players as well. While it will be interesting to see that will have the last laugh in the final, India will play a five-match Test series after this final.
