By Sahil Mathur March 07, 2021 • 11:05 AM View: 3284

The final of the World Test Championship(WTC) between India and New Zealand is likely to be held in Southampton in place of the previously considered Lord's.

According to reports, the organizers are considering the Ageas Bowl to be the venue of the WTC Final due to the logistical and organizational convenience. The stadium is attached to a five-star hotel which helps the cause in the times of Bio-Bubble and lockdown.
