Three weeks from now, the whole cricketing world and the fans will witness a pitched battle between the No.1 Test side Australia and the finalist of the previous edition of the WTC final, India. The match will take place at the historical ground of The Oval from June 7 onwards.
At the Oval, England’s first Test match was played in 1885. The venue is particularly well-known for having given rise to the Ashes, the biggest rivalry in Test cricket history between England and Australia.
England suffered a humiliating loss on August 29, 1882, at the hands of an inferior opponent, Australia, after they failed to reach the meagre target of 85 runs in the fourth inning.
The British media then called it a “Death of Test Cricket” and added, “The body will be cremated and the Ashes taken to Australia”.

World Test Championship (WTC) Final Pitch Report:
The record for most test matches played at one location is held by the Oval cricket ground. Even though it’s a high-scoring area, the bowlers can still have a good time there.
It’s tough to forecast whether the ball or the bat will win out because of how unpredictable and ever-changing England’s weather is. In other words, the pitch helps bowlers and batsmen. In that situation, the coin toss becomes important.
As has been observed in the past, the majority of teams choose to bat first because of the help that the spinners receive on the final two days of the competition due to the dryness. The batters have a hard time surviving because to the sharp turn.
Due to the lack of a green pitch, which is typically present in England venues, fast bowlers have not had the best of records here.
Only when the weather is gloomy and cloudy, as it was in the recently ended county match between Surrey and Middlesex, do they receive a little assistance. In the first inning, Surrey’s pacers struck out Middlesex’s final nine batters in a 35-run stretch.
World Test Championship (WTC) Final Weather Conditions
In the United Kingdom, June marks the beginning of summer. The country’s warmest time of year is now. Here, the daily average temperature ranges from 18 to 21 degrees Celsius. The likelihood of receiving dry pitch increases as a result of the country’s warmth. It makes sense why the spinners enjoy bowling here.
Since the county game has recently been played on the surface, there are fewer opportunities for the faster bowlers to detect green patches and wetness unless the weather suddenly changes and becomes cloudy and gloomy.
