World Test Championship Final Preview

Cricket Wednesday June 4, 2025 By: Duncan Hughes

With the cricket season well underway and the Spring sun so far providing us some stunning conditions, can you think of a better way to spend your summertime in 2025? Here at Engage we are offering all of the best hospitality for cricket this summer including England Men and Women, the T20 Blast, the Hundred and more!

Engage are also offering brilliant packages for the World Test Championship Final at Lord’s on the 11th June! The final is a fantastic opportunity to see two of the best sides in the world battle it out to be crowned World Number One at the Home of Cricket. In this blog, we talk you through everything you need to know for the final including the teams involved and who might come out on top!

World Test Championship Final 2025

The World Test Championship Final 2025 is a game played between the two best test sides of the last two years, from 2023-2025. Taking place every two years, the championship consists of 9 teams in total categorised into a league table with the top two teams advancing to the final.

It is only the third time the event has taken place with the inaugural event starting in 2021 at the Rose Bowl, Southampton. New Zealand came out as worthy winners that day defeating India by eight wickets. India would return to the final in 2023 seeking redemption, however, they would face dismay once again, this time beaten by the Black Caps’ neighbours, Australia, by 209 runs at the Oval in London.

2025 sees Australia return as they look to retain their title from 2023, however, India won’t be in attendance, having placed 3rd in the league table. South Africa will instead make their debut in the final after an emphatic two year spell, losing only three matches out of twelve.

With that said, Pat Cummins’ strong Australia side won’t be a pushover, having only lost two test series in the last five years. Australia secured their place in the final with victory over India back in January winning the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 3-1 on home soil.

South Africa booked their tickets for Lord’s with a scintillating 2 wicket win over Pakistan on Boxing Day. Both sides will be keen to win in front of a sell-out crowd, as they look to take one of cricket’s most respected honours.

Who do you think will take the win in one of the most prestigious games of cricket in the world? Australia vs South Africa will take place on the 11th June at the Home of Cricket. Australia will look to establish themselves as the best test side in world cricket prior to taking on England in the Ashes, Down Under, while South Africa will look to do the same, preparing for a tour of England this September.

Join us on what is expected to be a spectacular 5 days, with a gorgeous weather forecast in store and a brilliant game of cricket anticipated!
