NEW DELHI (Reuters) - New Zealand must believe in themselves if they are to make it third time lucky at a global tournament and defeat India in the World Test Championship (WTC) final, former Australia fast bowler Brett Lee said.

New Zealand reached the finals of the last two 50-overs World Cups but fell short on both occasions. Their defeat in the 2019 final was particularly hard to swallow as they lost to England via the boundary-count rule after the match had ended in a tie even after a Super Over.
