The match between Australia and India to determine who will win the World Test Championship (WTC) begins on Wednesday morning at The Oval in South London. With 11 wins from 19 games, Australia finished first in the WTC group stage. India has only lost five of their 18 matches in the tournament. Despite the fact that the Ashes series begins immediately after this match, Australia will be focused on this one. Over the last few weeks, the majority of their players have been acclimating to the conditions. India slowed down in the final two Tests against Australia earlier this year, but they should cause Australia plenty of problems. They will, however, need to be at their best from the start of this match.

In previous years, the Oval pitch has proven to be excellent for batting, particularly during the first few days. We anticipate a par score of 400 or higher in the first innings.
The first three days of the game are expected to be dry, with highs of 23 degrees. However, rain is expected on Saturday and Sunday.

The winner of this game will be crowned World Test Champions, and we have two fantastic Test teams vying for the title. In recent visits to England, neither team has won a Test series, but both have won individual Tests. We think this game will come down to who has the best pace bowling attack and Australia have the most depth in that department. We predict a close match, with Australia coming out on top. Considering the team combination, Australia is expected to win this match.
