The Final of the World Test Championship 2023 will be played between India and Australia from June 7 to June 11 at the Kennington Oval (London) ground in England. Squad for the match is yet to be announced, but India’s wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant will not be a part of this team.
Rishabh Pant had a car accident victim last year, so he is away from the field. In such a situation, a big update has come out on who will take over the wicketkeeping in the WTC final in place of Rishabh Pant.
According to media reports, KL Rahul will be included in the team as a wicketkeeper-batsman in the final of the World Test Championship. Recently, KS Bharat was included as a wicketkeeper in the series played against Australia, but he failed to leave his mark. In such a situation, KL Rahul is again considered the team’s first choice.
KL Rahul has played 47 Test matches for India so far. In these matches, KL Rahul has scored 2642 runs at an average of 33.44. During this, 13 half-centuries and 7 centuries have come out of KL Rahul’s bat. At the same time, in England, KL Rahul has scored 614 runs at an average of 34.11 while playing 9 Test matches. In these matches, KL Rahul has scored 1 half-century and 2 centuries.
India has made it to the final of the ICC World Test Championship for the second time. But last time, in the final, India had to face defeat at the hands of New Zealand. In such a situation, this time, Indians would like to name this title under any circumstances. Team India has not won any ICC trophy since 2013, so this final will be very special for Team India.
