The ICC World Test Championship final will be played at the "Home of Cricket", Lord's Cricket Ground in London. The stadium will host the mega clash from June 11, 2025, onwards
It will be the first time that Lord's has been used for the World Test Championship final, with Southhampton as the venue for the first edition (2021) and The Oval as the venue for the second edition (2023). New Zealand won the inauguration edition, followed by Australia who won the title in 2023
The match will be played between the top two sides on the standings at the completion of the current cycle, with Rohit Sharma's India currently sitting in pole position ahead of reigning champions Australia
Team India has been successful in featuring in both of the WTC finals but is yet to register the title to its name
There are still plenty of points available for teams though, with New Zealand (third), England (fourth), Sri Lanka (fifth), South Africa (sixth) and Bangladesh (seventh) still well in contention for a place in the one-off decider
