WTC Final Could Overrun Into Unusual 6th Day

By IANS News June 18, 2021 • 23:24 PM View: 3149

The chances of the World Test Championship (WTC) final between India and New Zealand - dubbed by the ICC as 'The Ultimate Test' - spilling over into a sixth day's play hovered on the horizon, after incessant rain comprehensively put paid to the opening day's proceedings here on Friday.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has allocated an extra day in reserve as precaution for the one-off decider. India's fielding coach R. Sridhar in an official media interaction described the foresight as "prudent and wise".
