WTC Final: South Africa Win Toss And Elect To Bowl First Against Australia
ICC World Test Championship Final: South Africa have won the toss and elected to bowl against Australia in the 2025 ICC World Test Championship Final at the Lord’s Cricket Ground on Wednesday. This will be the first time that the iconic Lord’s will be hosting a World Test Championship Final. There is also a reserve day in place on June 16, provided time is lost due to inclement weather in original five days.
Australia come in as reigning champions, while South Africa are in this title clash for the first time. South Africa captain Temba Bavuma said the pitch looks good, but overhead conditions have dictated his decision to bowl first.
“Will have a bowl first looking at the overhead conditions. Looks like a good pitch. Too late to change the team, we have selected the best combination. “All 15 of us are confident. We all have had some allegiance to Lord's, the emotion will hit us when the anthems stat playing. It is a massive final, it should be a spectacle out here,” he said.
