The stage is set for the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) Final 2025, where defending champions Australia will face a spirited South African side at Lord’s from June 11 to 15. With a reserve day scheduled on June 16, the five-day contest will hold huge importance to both sides. While Australia will aim to defend the mace they won in 2023, South Africa are eyeing their first ICC title in over 25 years.

This is the Proteas’ maiden appearance in a WTC Final, led by Temba Bavuma, while Australia come in with the experience of having conquered India in the previous cycle. Both teams announced their playing XIs on June 10, and the selections weren’t surprising at all.
