What India's victory means for World Test Championship race
The easy win saw India improve to a win-percentage of 64.06 percent, but their place in June's decider at The Oval is still not locked in as they can still be overtaken by Sri Lanka should results go against them.
The race for the final is now down to three sides, with South Africa ruled out of reaching the final following India's triumph in Delhi.
The highest South Africa can rise to is 55 percent, which is less than the lowest amount that India can finish on.
PERCENTAGE CHANCE OF TEAMS MEETING IN WORLD TEST CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL
| Australia and India | 88.9% |
| Australia and Sri Lanka | 8.3% |
| India and Sri Lanka | 2.8 % |
While Australia are in the box seat to reach the final, they are not quite over the line yet either.
Pat Cummins side can qualify by avoiding a 4-0 whitewash to India, while they still may qualify for the final should Sri Lanka fail to beat New Zealand 2-0 in their upcoming Test series.
