In March this year, New Zealand beat Sri Lanka in the first Test of two-match series after an exciting finish to help India qualify for the final.
Sri Lanka, who were in contention for WTC final qualification, had to win both Tests against New Zealand in order to qualify.
However, Kane Williamson's hundred in a rain-hit first Test of the series snatched Sri Lanka's chance of playing their maiden WTC final. Williamson scored 121 not-out to help the Kiwis beat the visitors by two wickets on the final day.
India will play ICC WTC final for the second time in a row. In 2021, they faced New Zealand in ICC WTC 2019-21 in Southampton. The Kiwis beat India by eight wickets to lift the inaugural ICC WTC title.
