WTC Final 2025: The final of the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025 is going to be a historic match, with two powerful teams Australia and South Africa face to face. This match is going to start on the Lord’s ground, called the Mecca of Cricket from today i.e. June 11. In this match, the trophy wins any team, new history is set to be created.
Australia, who is the current Champion of WTC, will field for the second consecutive time with the intention of winning the title. If the Kangaroo team led by Pat Cummins succeeds in saving the title, then Australia will be the first team in history to name the WTC final twice.
At the same time, the South Africa team has reached the WTC final for the first time and she will not want to lose this opportunity at all. South Africa is dreaming of winning its first ICC Trophy. The Protiaz team has traveled to this final by winning seven consecutive Test matches and the whole team is seen in a different rhythm and confidence.
Which team will win
Australia’s team will come on the basis of their experience playing this final. There are four such bowlers in the team who fall on the list of the top-10 Test wickets in the country. These players are Nathan Leone, who has taken 553 wickets, Mitchell Starc, who has 382 wickets, Pat Cummins who has taken 294 wickets so far and Josh Hazelwood who has taken 279 wickets. The experience of all these bowlers can remove the team under any pressure.
On the other hand, the South African team also has the power in the bowling unit. The fast bowler of this team, Cagiso Rabada, who has shown the path of the pavilion by dismissing Khwaja repeated 5 times in 10 Tests, Australian has the power to give initial shock to the batting order.
Steve Smith can also prove to be a big factor in this final match. Even though Smith has not played any competitive cricket since March, but his Test average in the field like Lord’s is around 58. He has recently completed a huge figure of 10,000 Test runs, which is equivalent to the total runs of the entire South African team alone. He has also scored 4 centuries in the last 5 Tests.
However, there are also questions on the form and fitness of some players for Australia, such as Alex Carry, Nathan Leone, Scott Bolland, Khwaja and Constas have been away from cricket for a long time.
