India's march for the World Test Championship (WTC) Final spot now sees them host New Zealand for a three-match Test series. The opening Test will be played at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru from October 16-20.

The Rohit Sharma-led side recently demolished Bangladesh in two Tests, in Chennai and Kanpur. With that, India got to 74.24 WTC points percentage, which is the most by any team currently. New Zealand, meanwhile, had their one-off Test against Afghanistan in Greater Noida washed out before losing a two-match Test series against Sri Lanka away from home.

Before the India vs New Zealand series starts, here's a glance at the preview for the three Tests.
