Pat Cummins on WTC Final venue: The third cycle of the World Test Championship is coming to an end and now only the final is left to be played. This time South Africa is facing defending champion Australia in the final. This match will be played at the historic Lord’s Cricket Ground in London. The previous two finals were also held in England. At the same time, now Australian captain Pat Cummins has given an important suggestion regarding the venue of the WTC final. Cummins believes that the final should be held in the country of the winner of the previous cycle, but if this is not possible then Lord’s should be fixed as a permanent venue.

In fact, there has been a discussion for some time as to why the WTC final is held in England every time. At the same time, according to reports, India has also expressed a desire to host the final of the next cycle. Cummins also seemed to agree with the idea that the final match should be taken out of England, if logistics are not possible, then the final should always be held at Lord’s.

“Logistically, it seems that having the same venue is probably the easiest way. It would be nice, maybe the previous winner hosts it next time, or something like that. But as an option, I think it is also a good option to hold it at Lord’s in every cycle.”
Let us tell you that Australia has made it to the final of the World Test Championship for the second time. Earlier they had played the final in the previous cycle as well and defeated India. This time they are facing South Africa, who will play the WTC final for the first time. The match between the two teams will start from June 11. Australia’s team looks very strong but South Africa cannot be taken lightly either. The pace attack of both the teams is tremendous, so the batsmen are going to face a lot of difficulties. Fans are hoping to see a great match.
