It is a catch-22 situation for India.
With the series poised at 2-1, do you head for a draw or go all out ? The disadvantage of going all out is that you risk losing the game and drawing the series 2-2. This, in turn could impact the chances of playing in the WTC Final. Then again, one wouldn't have expected SRL to come out all guns blazing vs NZ. So, if India draws the game, there's still the chance they may not play Australia at the Oval.
