Cricket-Lord’s to host World Test Championship final in June 2025

(Reuters) – The World Test Championship final will be played at Lord’s between June 11-15 next year, global governing body International Cricket Council (ICC) said on Tuesday.

It will be the first time Lord’s will host the one-off test played between the two highest-ranked sides in the five-day format, with previous finals taking place at Southampton’s Rose Bowl and The Oval in London.

Two-time finalists India are leading the standings ahead of defending champions Australia. India will tour Australia for five tests between November and January.
