South Africa vs Australia Weather and Pitch Report Of Lord's, London- WTC Final 2025:

South Africa vs Australia Lord's Pitch Report:
The surface at Lord's has always been a sporting one with help for both batters and bowlers. The ball tends to do a bit in the morning session, but the wicket gets better for batting as the day progresses.
Having said taht, the batters will have to be cautious throughout the day as the Dukes ball is known to swing all day, unlike in Australia and South Africa where the red cherry comes nicely on the bat once the shine is gone.
One of the things that both teams will need to consider before the match is the scores, which keep decreasing as the match progresses.
The average first innings total at this ground is 310, so the team batting second will need to get a substantial lead to stay ahead in the match, as chasing in the fourth innings hasn't been easy at Lord's.
The average fourth innings total at this venue happens to be 166, which means the bowling team will need to restrict the opposition to a manageable total to increase their chances of winning.
The SA vs AUS game promises to be a cracker of a contest between bat and ball, as both teams have got strong resources at their disposal and have been in good form in the last few months.
Both teams are well led by their respective captain, with Temba Bavuma yet to lose a test match in nine outings, whereas Pat Cummins has an impressive record as a captain in the final match of an ICC event.
The latter hasn't lost an ICC final since being appointed as the captain of the side. Cummins has played two and won two finals.
The Australian management would hope for their captain to keep his perfect record in ICC finals in check.
South Africa will, however, have other ideas and will look to spoil Australia's chances of defending their WTC title.
The South Africa vs Australia match will be a contest between the fast bowling trios of both teams.
Conclusion
South Africa would like to get rid of the infamous 'chokers' tag by winning their second ICC trophy.
Australia, on the other hand, would like to resume its trophy-winning juggernaut, having failed to do so in the last two ICC events, i.e., the 2024 T20 World Cup and the 2025 Champions Trophy.
