WTC Final : What happens if the match ends in the draw?
If the WTC ends in the WTC final draw or tie between Australia and South Africa, the World Testing Championship Mess will be shared between the two finalists. It has been a standard regulation for the One-off WTC final since its inception in 2021.There is no additional tiebreaker in Test cricket like a super over. Unlike the bilateral testing chain, where a draw concludes the competition without a winner, it means being a championship final that both teams will be crowned joint winners if no result is possible.

Yes. The ICC has allocated on 16 June as a Reserve Day, which will be used only when the time of the net game lost during the prescribed five days is not recovered through extended sessions. If necessary, the sixth day can add up to a maximum of 90 overs.If five scheduled days allow the full innings and time for results – even with weather obstacles – and still ends in a draw or tie, the reserved day will not be active.Who is that IPL player?Bet: WTC25 final prize moneyAlong with the iconic mace, there are many financial incentives.

This is the way I would like to see everyone playing.He said, “I play every game, I am watching to get wickets.

Rabada currently holds the best strike rate (38.9) among the bowlers with more than 150 Test wickets.Rabada, who raced five wickets in the first innings and continued to bother the batsmen in the second, admitted that the latter mantras were difficult, but they focused on being composed.
“I am working very hard, the second innings mantras are those who count too much – when you get a little tired and behind.“It was just about being calm and seeing what was in front of us. All the devastation loose, we got five wickets, I know how many overs, it was a crazy game of cricket.“Your head usually has two voices – one that doubts and one who believes. The one we keep feeding, especially in such big moments, the World Test Championship Final. That is why you saw the demonstrations you saw. It is a will for our team this season.”
