WTC Final 2023 IND vs AUS: Now only five days are left in the final of the World Test Championship. Teams of India and Australia are going to face each other in the final of WTC. Which is called the World Cup of Test Cricket. The game will start at The Oval in England from 3 pm on June 7. Rohit Sharma is captaining Team India for the second time in an ICC tournament. While the Australian team will be led by Pat Cummins. Now the entire Team India has reached The Oval in England and the preparations are in full swing. Meanwhile, a big feat is going to happen in the final of the ICC tournament after 20 years. It includes both India and Australia teams.

The title Clash Between India and Australia in the 2003 World Cup

Remember the 2003 World Cup. In that, Team India reached the finals under the captaincy of Sourav Ganguly. While the Australian team managed to enter the finals under the captaincy of Ricky Ponting. Now it is happening exactly 20 years after that, when the teams of India and Australia will be seen fighting for the title in the ICC tournament. However, it is another matter that in that year i.e. 2003, Team India had to face a crushing defeat at the hands of Australia and after the 1983 ODI World Cup, the hopes of winning another title have been dashed.

But now Rohit Sharma has a chance to do the work which Sourav Ganguly could not do. Although it will not be an easy task for them, nothing can be said until the result is out. The top Test players that India currently have have been selected for the WTC final and don’t be surprised if there is a big draw.

Australia Number 1 in ICC WTC Points table, Team India at Number Two

Team Australia, number one in the points table of the ICC World Test Championship and Team India as number two, have qualified for the finals. Whichever team performs better in the finals, will win the title. Meanwhile, you will remember that even in the year 2021, Team India had entered the final of WTC, where they faced New Zealand, but Team India’s dream of winning another title could not be fulfilled.

Then Virat Kohli was the captain of Team India, while the command of New Zealand was in the hands of Kane Williamson. Now Team India has become the first team to reach the finals in the first two editions of WTC. It should be expected that at least this time, they will win the final and bring home another ICC title. So that the drought of the ICC Trophy, which has been lying for ten years, should be ended. It has to be seen how Team India will perform in this match when it will take the field on June 7.
