Meanwhile, the final of the ICC World Test Championship 2021-23 cycle will be played in June 2023 at The Oval in London, with the top two teams from the World Test Championship points table making the cut. The Oval has previously hosted many high-profile games, including the ICC Men’s Champions Trophy 2004 and 2017 finals.
