Lord's will number two people's Testing this summer, with England's second Test against India slotted for the location as well
The final of the World Test Championship ( WTC ) 2023-25 will be played at Lord's from June 11.
The top two teams currently lead the points table, with 68.52 and 62.50, respectively, but it wo n't be revealed until next year. For India, who were the losing finalists in both the earlier WTCs, there are ten Tests left to play in the period- two at home against Bangladesh, three at house against New Zealand, and five apart in Australia, Australia, the defending champions, also have an absent series of two Tests in Sri Lanka.
" Winning the World Test Championship was, and still is, a great purpose for this team", Pat Cummins, Australia's Test captain, said in a statement. It represents the culmination of all teams ' efforts and persistence over the course of the two-year period. So we can hope to return it, there will still be a lot of cricket to be played, and fans will have the chance to watch us justify the subject.
New Zealand ( 50.00 ) are currently at No. 3 on the nine-team table and, after their historic 2-0 series win in Pakistan, Bangladesh ( 45.83 ) are at No. 4. They are followed by England ( 45.00 ) and South Africa ( 38.89 ). Sri Lanka, Pakistan and West Indies are the lower three teams at the moment.
England has been picked as the place for all three WTC championships thus far, the initial having been in Southampton and the subsequent at The Oval.
" We're delighted to be working with the ICC to bring the World Test Championship final to Lord's for the first time", Guy Lavender, the MCC chief executive and minister, said. " It is our tremendous opportunity to get asked to sponsor a last of any kind but to welcomed the two best men's sides in Test cricket- our most cherished format- is a distinct honour. It will be an experience not to be missed, adding to the storied 140-year story of Lord's Assessments".
Next summer, Lord's may host two Checks, one of which will be the England vs. India Test, which will take place from July 10 to July 14. That is the third Test of that tour, which will start at Headingley on June 20, followed by Tests at Edgbaston ( from July 2 ), Lord's, Old Trafford ( from July 23 ) and The Oval ( from July 31 ). If India reach the WTC last, they will have to play six Testing in England.
