AUS vs IND Preview
Australia go head-to-head against India in the World Test Championship Final at Kennington Oval, London on 7th June, Wednesday at 3:00 PM IST.
This is why both the teams fought it out hard throughout the WTC cycle, India is making it two in two appearances in the final but the question remains can they go all the way this time? In the last WTC final, New Zealand edged out India, however, New Zealand, the defending champions couldn’t quite live up to the expectations. It was Australia who were far more than impressive this time around and were the first to qualify for the finals. India had to beat Australia in the recently concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy and they did splendidly well.
It’s quite hard to separate these two teams as they played some brilliant brand of cricket throughout and are much-deserved one’s to be where they are. India barring those two series where they lost to South Africa in South Africa and drew the series against England, did remarkably well to dominate the other teams and kept notching up wins. Australia on the other hand was up against winning the Ashes 4-0 against England and then losing a closely fought series against India but barring that Australia has dominated the WTC cycle through and through.
This is going to be another hard-fought test match for both the teams and India are slight favorites as they have the right set of players they do miss out on Jasprit Bumrah but they have to move on. Australian bowling is the strongest among the two and is going to make life difficult for the Indian batters.

Kennington Oval Pitch Report
The pitch at the Kennington Oval has been the talking point over the last few weeks. It’s typically a high-scoring venue and the batters will like to bat on it as long as they can but the bowlers will still have it something. However, it all depends on the outcome of the toss as the teams winning the toss do opt to bat first. The first two days the spinners will see some grip and turn because of dryness. The average first innings score is 343.
