WTC Final: From Cummins To Bedingham, Players To Watch Out For In The Title Clash At Lord's
World Test Championship: The hard work of over two years will finally end for Australia and South Africa, who will be locking horns in the World Test Championship (WTC) final at the Lord's starting on Wednesday. Defending champions Australia, led by Pat Cummins, have the golden opportunity to become the first team to retain the title in its third edition. They defeated India at The Oval in 2023 to win the last edition.
On the other hand, Temba Bavuma's South Africa will play their first WTC final after topping the standings on the back of winning seven of their last eight matches. Though this might be their first red-ball summit clash, they have become regulars in ICC knockout matches in recent years.
South Africa reached the semifinals of the 2023 ODI World Cup and the 2025 Champions Trophy, while they finished runners-up in last year's T20 World Cup against Rohit Sharma-led India. Their only ICC title came in 1998 when they lifted the Champions Trophy.
