<p>The WTC 2021-2023 cycle is almost coming to an end. Test cricket is the most loved format of the sport. We have seen a few test matches go down the wire of late. These games are the ones that make sports exciting. Post the announcement of the <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/tag/icc-world-test-championship/">World Test Championship</a>, the test matches have got a meaning and the games are truly very interesting. But who are the top performers of the WTC 2021-2023 cycle??</p>



<h2>Most Runs in WTC 2021-2023 Cycle:&nbsp;</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Name&nbsp;</td><td>Country&nbsp;</td><td>Innings&nbsp;</td><td>Runs&nbsp;</td><td>Average&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Joe Root&nbsp;</td><td>England&nbsp;</td><td>40&nbsp;</td><td>1915&nbsp;</td><td>53.7&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Babar Azam&nbsp;</td><td>Pakistan&nbsp;</td><td>26&nbsp;</td><td>1527&nbsp;</td><td>61.8&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Usma Khawaja&nbsp;</td><td>Australia&nbsp;</td><td>27&nbsp;</td><td>1428&nbsp;</td><td>64.9&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Marnus Labuschagne&nbsp;</td><td>Australia&nbsp;</td><td>29&nbsp;</td><td>1384&nbsp;</td><td>53.2&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Jonny Bairstow&nbsp;</td><td>England&nbsp;</td><td>28&nbsp;</td><td>1285&nbsp;</td><td>51.4&nbsp;</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<h2>Joe Root has Mot Runs in the WTC 2021-2023 Cycle:&nbsp;</h2>

IMG SRC: ECB</figcaption></figure>



<p>Joe Root has scored a mountain of runs in this cycle of the World Test Championship. He was the only English batter scoring runs in the first half of the WTC 2021-2023 cycle. It was evident that the<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/category/cricket-team/icc-teams/england/"> England cricket team</a> was struggling but Joe Root was their lone warrior. Root has been an integral part of their success after adopting the Bazzball approach as well. It is because players like Root, bind the team together. His getting sacked from captaincy was a setback but that has worked exceptionally well for him and the team.?</p>



<p>Most Wickets in WTC 2021-2023 Cycle:&nbsp;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td>Name&nbsp;</td><td>Country&nbsp;</td><td>Wickets&nbsp;</td><td>Average&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Nathan Lyon&nbsp;</td><td>Australia&nbsp;</td><td>69&nbsp;</td><td>28.82&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>James Anderson&nbsp;</td><td>England&nbsp;</td><td>58&nbsp;</td><td>20.3&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Kagiso Rabada&nbsp;</td><td>South Africa&nbsp;</td><td>55&nbsp;</td><td>23.2&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Ollie Robinson&nbsp;</td><td>England&nbsp;</td><td>53&nbsp;</td><td>20.7&nbsp;</td></tr><tr><td>Pat Cummins&nbsp;</td><td>Australia&nbsp;</td><td>53&nbsp;</td><td>21.22&nbsp;</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<h2>Nathan Lyon has the Most Wickets:&nbsp;</h2>

IMG SRC: CA</figcaption></figure>



<p>Lyon has managed to get himself to the top of the charts this time around. He was a class apart from all the other bowlers. Playing in Australian conditions where the ball is generally meant to be given to the pacers, Lyon managed to be the trump card of the Australians. He was the reason behind the success of Australia in this WTC 2021-2023 cycle. His performance against India in Indore was elite. It was one for the ages. Lyon has been a tireless workhorse for the Australian team and has been a part of all the Ashes series since 2013.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>Highest Individual Scores:&nbsp;</h2>

<p>ICC WTC Final. India has reached the final of the <a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&amp;rls=en&amp;q=world+test+championship+final&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;oe=UTF-8" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&amp;rls=en&amp;q=world+test+championship+final&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;oe=UTF-8">World Test Championship</a>. They played the staggering brand of cricket for the last two years and it?s fair to say that the hard work of that has paid off. They will lock horns with Australia in the summit clash at the Oval, England from June 7th to 11th.?</p>



<p>However, after that, they have a jam-packed schedule as they will tour to West Indies. And after that, the real show will begin as they will ply their trade in the Asia Cup and then the Cricket World Cup 2023.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>ICC WTC Final: Afghanistan likely to tour India after ICC World Test Championship Final</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Afghanistan-1.jpg" alt="ICC World Cup Super League Points: Afghanistan qualify for World Cup 2023" class="wp-image-98246" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Getty Image</figcaption></figure>



<p>In what has been the latest development as per the reports in Times of India (TOI), Afghanistan Cricket Team is likely to tour India after the World Test Championship Final. It is learned that they will come up for the short tour in mid-June.?</p>



<p>A source in the Board of Control for Cricket in India revealed this development to the Times of India. He said:&nbsp;<em>?Yes, the Afghanistan cricket team will undertake a short tour to India in June, after the World Test Championship final (at The Oval in London from June 7-11).?&nbsp;</em></p>



<p>Although the itinerary of the tour is yet to be confirmed, but it is likely that they will come for the white-ball series. Afghanistanlast played against India in India in 2018 when they got the Test status. It was a one-off game that saw the hosts winning the game by an innings and 262 runs.?</p>

<p>India after the World Test Championship Final are scheduled to travel to West Indies for the white-ball series in July and August. The two teams will lock horns in two Tests, three On-Day Internationals (ODI) and five T20 Internationals (T20I).&nbsp;</p>



<p>India notably has provided great support to Afghanistan in the development of their cricket. The BCCI has provided them with stadiums in Greater Noida, Lucknow and Dehradun to them to play their 'home' matches. The team has been playing good cricket here and if the reports of them touring India emerge out to be true, it?s fair to say it?ll be an exciting series.&nbsp;</p>

ICC WTC Final: Afghanistan likely to tour India after ICC World Test Championship Final

<p>The English Red-Ball Captain Ben Stokes is all fired up for the upcoming Australia tour of England, popularly known as the Ashes. The Batting All-Rounder is down to lay the game plan for the upcoming Test Tour. Ashes are one of the biggest cricket rivalries and have fans even from overseas.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="the-ashes-details">The Ashes Details</h2>



<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Stokes">Stokes </a>wants to add the threat of pace to this fiery rivalry to make the English win. England won 10 of 12 Test Matches when Australia visited England. The Ashes are scheduled from 16th June to 31st July 2023. The series is said to kickstart the World Test Championship (2023-2025).<br>Australia is the defending champions of the series as they sealed a clean victory of 4-0 in the Ashes 2021-22.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="ben-stokes-game-plan">Ben Stoke's Game Plan</h2>



<p>Stokes is looking forward to having a game plan in mind months before the series begins. He was quoted, ?I think I know what the starting XI is going to be, there or thereabouts,?. This statement indicates that the Playing XI for the Test Series has already been decided, and the players are already a part of the Captain?s plan.</p>



<p>Ben also claimed that the English team has already made arrangements with the ground staff regarding the type of pitches and wickets they wish to have. Ben states that he and the team management wants flat and fast wickets.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2023/04/image-66-1024x512.png" alt="Jofra Archer and Ben stokes England test
" class="wp-image-108506" /></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="jofra-archer">Jofra Archer </h2>



<p>Ben Stokes is looking to add more pacers to the squad, and Jofra Archer seems fit to add a crucial role for his home team. The Fast-pace bowler has kept himself away from cricket lately due to a series of injuries. He could manage to play only one match for the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League as his injuries still concern the team management.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="james-anderson-and-stuart-broad">James Anderson and Stuart Broad</h2>



<p>James Anderson and Stuart Broad have also caused a lot of damage to the Australian batting line-up during the Ashes. Hence, they are expected to be back in the team, following Ben?s desire for pacers in the team squad. ?Jimmy and Broad had been so protective over their economy rates, but now they have seen a different side to it,? Stokes said</p>



<p>Stokes has faced a setback as he injured his left knee post the practice session with Chennai Super Kings, and despite the bummer, he strives to get back to the field for the IPL and his home team.</p>

ICC WTC 2023: Ben Stokes Gearing For The Upcoming Ashes, Wants Fast Flat Wickets

icc-wtc-2023-ben-stokes-ashes-wants-fast-flat-wickets

<p>ICC WTC Final: After two years of spectacular cricket, <a href="https://www.bcci.tv" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.bcci.tv">India Cricket Team</a> has managed to reach the final of the World Test Championship. They played a sensational brand of Test cricket over the last couple of years and the hard work of that has paid off. They will now face Australia in the main event at Oval England from the 7th to the 11th of June.</p>



<p>?This is the second time India has qualified for the final of the WTC 2023. They lost to New Zealand first time and this time around it?ll be an extremely crucial game for them as they haven?t won any ICC trophy since 2013. They have faced a lot of criticism for that and many are backing them to change their fortunes and bring the trophy home.?</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>ICC WTC Final: India's Squad for World Test Championship Final Prediction</strong></h2>

<p>ICC WTC Final: As the World Test Championship is around the corner, we take a look at the predicted Indian Squad for World Test Championship Final. It?s a no-brainer that Rohit Sharma will be the skipper of the team and will open the innings. With the way Shubman Gill has performed, it is likely that he will open the innings fort his team.?</p>



<p>Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli no doubt will be there in the team. The duo has been the lynchpin of India?s batting lineup in the Test and will be crucial to India?s chances this time around. India will be without the services of Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer as they are out due to injuries.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Their absence will leave a massive void in the team but it?ll be an opportunity for other batters to step in and lead India to glory. With Iyer yet to be recovered, Ajinkya Rahane might get back in the team as several reports have suggested the same as well. The batter was in an exceptional domestic season as he piled up over 600 runs and his experience would be something that could be handy for India.?</p>

<p>Also, we could see Sarfaraz Khan receiving his maiden call-up for the Indian team. The reason behind that has been his prime form with the bat. He has been extremely consistent in the domestic circuit. It is also likely that the team might ask KL Rahul to keep the wickets as KS Bharat?s technique will not be suitable for the English conditions but he might also be there in the squad.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Axar Patel and Shardul Thakur are likely to be the three all-rounders in the team. The trio has been crucial to India?s success of late in overseas conditions and is expected to do the same this time around as well. Whereas Mohammad Shami, Mohammed Siraj and Jaydev Unadkat and Umesh Yadav are expected to be the pacers in the squad along with leg-spinner Kuldeep Yadav.&nbsp;</p>

<p>ICC WTC Final: The focus is slightly moving towards the ICC World Test Championship Final. India and Australia will cross swords with each other in the final of the Test Championship and it?s fair to say that both the teams will be eager to lift the trophy. The event will take place at Oval England from the 7th to the 11th of June.?</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>ICC WTC Final: Sunil Gavaskar Picks His Indian XI for the World Test Championship Final</strong></h2>

<p>ICC WTC Final: The Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI) on Tuesday (25th April) named the Indian squad for the ICC World Test Championship.? The squad seems pretty balanced and it?s fair to say that It?ll be a great opportunity for them to clinch their first ICC title since 2013.?</p>



<p>As the Indian cricket team named their squad for the ICC World Test Championship, former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar named his Indian XI for the summit clash. What was surprising was that he picked KL Rahul as a keeper in the team and backed him to bat in the middle.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Skipper Rohit Sharma along with young Shubman Gill will open the innings according to Sunil Gavaskar for India in the ICC WTC Final. The duo were in decent form in the Tests series against Australia and are expected to play a crucial role in the final.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Gavaskar then picked the duo of Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli to bat at No.3 and No.4 respectively for India. The duo no doubt will hold the key for the team in the summit clash as they have been the prime run scorer for India in overseas conditions.?</p>

<p>Ajinkya Rahane, who will be making his comeback, will bat at No.5 as per Sunil Gavaskar whereas he preferred KL Rahul over KS Bharat as a keeper in the team. Rahul has a great overseas record and the team will likely look to fit him.&nbsp;</p>



<p>He then didn?t opt for the four-seamer combinations as he backed both Ravindra Jadeja and R Ashwin to start in the XI. The three pacers in his team are Mohammad Shami, Mohammed Siraj and Jaydev Unadkat.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Here?s Sunil Gavaskar?s playing XI for WTC Final:&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>Rohit Sharma (C)<br>Shubman Gill<br>Cheteshwar Pujara?<br>Virat Kohli?<br>Ajinkya Rahane?<br>KL Rahul (Wk)?<br>Ravindra Jadeja?<br>R Ashwin?<br>Jaydev Unadkat?<br>Mohammad Shami?<br>Mohammed Siraj??</strong></p>

WTC Final 2023: Australia's Full Squad Analysis with Players stats for World Test Championship Final 2023

wtc-final-2023-australias-full-squad-analysis-with-players-stats-for-world-test-championship-final-2023

<p><strong>WTC Final:</strong> Team India has to play the final match of the World Test Championship 2021-23 against Australia at the Oval ground in England from the seventh of next month. Before this important match, the BCCI also announced the 15-member squad of the Indian team. Apart from Virat Kohli and Mohammad Siraj, eight other players have also reached England. As soon as the IPL gets over, all the remaining players will also reach Australia.</p>



<p>The Indian side won the Test match at the Oval in 2021 while Shastri was the head coach, however,?at that time, they had fast bowlers Jaspreet Bumrah, Mohammad Siraj, Umesh Yadav, and Shardul Thakur. In addition to them, Rohit Sharma's century innings were crucial to that game. Shastri stated that Bumrah's absence harmed India's chances when picking his playing 11 for the WTC final.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="what-did-shastri-said">What Did Shastri Said?</h2>



<p>"If your fast bowling strategy isn't particularly effective. Ashwin and Jadeja are both excellent spinners, so you should select two if you believe that some of the fast bowlers have aged and are no longer as fast."</p>

<p>"If the dry ground is hard, you should still land with two spinners. England is a country where the weather is significant, but I don't know the weather there. I believe it is sunny there right now. India should therefore use two spinners, two fast bowlers, and one all-rounder in this situation. In addition to this, the team should have five batsmen and one wicketkeeper."</p>



<p>"This would be my team lineup if the Oval's circumstances were typical. You have to field such players who can beat Australia.." Shastri has chosen Srikar Bharat over Ishaan Kishan as his choice for a wicketkeeper.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="wtc-final-2023-venue-kennington-oval-pitch-report"><strong>WTC Final 2023 Venue </strong><strong>Kennington OVAL PITCH REPORT</strong></h2>



<p>The Kennington Oval's pitch is renowned for its dependability and consistency. Both players and spectators enjoy it because it fosters fair competition between bowlers and batters. The surface often has a strong bounce, enabling spinners to gain a grip and quick bowlers to produce movement.</p>



<p>However, it can be somewhat sluggish, which makes scoring runs challenging. The pitch typically gets worse as the game goes on, favoring the Pacers more. The last time when India went there, India defeated England by 157 runs. Rohit Sharma scored a beautiful 124, and Rishabh and Shardul scored impressive fifties. </p>

<p><strong>Australia vs India: </strong>India and Australia are playing in the World Test Championship 2023 championship game at the Neutral Oval Stadium. The Australian team scored 469 runs in the first innings after India's skipper Rohit Sharma choose to bowl first after winning the toss.</p>



<p>The start of the Indian team, which came to bat after 469 runs in the very first innings of the Australian team, was not special. Captain Rohit Sharma scored only 15 runs, IPL's most promising player Shubham Gill 13 runs, Test cricket expert Cheteshwar Pujara scored only 14 runs and Indian team's ex-captain Virat Kohli could score only 14 runs.</p>



<p>Where all the fans felt that the Indian team would not be able to score even 200 runs, Ajinkya Rahane and Shardul Thakur did wonders in front of the same bowling attack. So far there has been a partnership of 108 runs between these two batsmen. The best part is that this 108 came in just 133 balls.</p>



<p>Ajinkya Rahane, returning to international cricket after 18 months, is unbeaten on 89 runs with the help of 11 fours and a six in balls. At the same time, Shardul Thakur is also batting on 36 runs in 83 balls with four fours. At the time of writing this article, the Indian team's score is 260 runs for the loss of six wickets in 60 overs. The Indian team is still 209 runs behind the first innings score of the Australian team.</p>

<p><span>India assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate has provided a massive fitness update about batter Rinku Singh ahead of the fourth IND vs ENG T20I. He mentioned that the left-hander has gained full fitness and will be playing the next match of the five-match T20I series.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p><span>India and England are all set to lock horns with each other in the fourth match of the T20I series. The game is all set to be played at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune on Thursday (30th January). The series is currently at 2-1, with hosts in the lead.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>India has been without the services of Rinku Singh for the last two games of the IND vs ENG series. The left-hander sustained a low back spasm while fielding in the first game and was then ruled out of the next two games of the series as he was under the observation of the BCCI medical team.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>In his place, the India team added Dhruv Jurel to the XI, and the move didn't pay off. The keeper-batter batted lower down the order and struggled to get going in both games, and it potentially cost them the last match of the series.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<h2><span><span class="Apple-converted-space">Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow - Ryan Ten Doeschate</span></span></h2>
<p><span>However, in what will be a massive boost, Rinku Singh has been declared fit for the next two games. The development was confirmed by assistant coach Ryan Ten Doeschate, who said that the batter hit nets and will be playing. He told reporters.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>"Rinku Singh is fit and ready to play tomorrow. He batted yesterday night"</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>Rinku Singh has been India's one of the best batters in the T20Is. His absence was felt in the last two games as well, but now, with him being fit, it is expected that he would walk straight into the XI and is likely to add Dhruv Jurel to the team.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>The fourth IND vs ENG T20I will be a great opportunity for India to to seal the series, but they need to make some corrections before heading into the next IND vs ENG match.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>India faced a disappointing 26-run loss in the last match at Rajkot. Their batting was one of the main reasons behind the loss and they would be hoping to make a strong comeback.</span></p>

<p><span>Corbin Bosch bowled a delivery that was was short and was angled in. Abell looked to pull it and got a massive top-edge on the pull. Dewald Brevis, who was at deep square, seemed to have lost it in the sun and with the kind of impression he gave, it looked ball would land safely.</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
<p><span>The ball was going beyond him, but Dewald Brevis stretched his right hand over him and grabbed it out of thin air. He came up with the superman type effort and flew to take a blinder and send the batter packing:</span><span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></p>
