How to see Australia vs India at the ICC World Test Championship Final 2023

If you haven’t heard of the World Test Championship, we don’t blame you, as this is only the second final to ever take place.

The idea originally came from the ICC in 2009 out of a desire to have a top international competition for all of the three main forms of cricket (Test matches, One-Day Internationals and Twenty20 Internationals). But thanks to a couple of cancellations, their wish wasn’t actually put into action until 2019, with the first tournament lasting until summer 2021.

The tournament features nine international teams who each play six series across two years. One series consist of two to five Test Matches which are each scheduled over five days. After 27 series in the league stage, the two teams with the most points go into a final – we know it’s complicated but hey, that’s cricket!

Last time, New Zealand won the Championship after a final against India at Southampton’s Rose Bowl. This year, it’s up to us to host it once again, with Australia and India heading to the Kia Oval in London.

When and where is the World Test Championship Final?

This year, the final will take place at the historic Kia Oval, which has been the home of Surrey County Cricket Club since 1845. The first international cricket match was held there in 1880 and it even hosted the first-ever FA Cup final in 1872.

The ground sits in the London borough of Lambeth, a short leg from Oval tube station which is on the Northern Line. You can also get the Victoria Line or Southwestern Rail to Vauxhall station and walk from there.

If that sounds easy enough, here are the full details of this year’s test match:

• 7^th – 11^th June 2023 – Kia Oval, London

How long does Test Cricket last?

Test matches are usually scheduled to last up to five days and are made up of four innings (two per team).

Each day will last around seven and a half hours with lunch and a tea break – yes, a tea break – scheduled in.

General admission tickets to the Final are still available, with seats costing anywhere between £10 and £70. You can still grab a spot at every day except the last (Sunday 11^th June) by heading on over to the World Test Championship website.
