World Test Championship Final 2025: 3 Players their team completely depends on for victory

The World Test Championship (WTC) Final 2023–25 is just a few days away, with South Africa and Australia set to face off at the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground in London. Both teams hold world-class players and have shown remarkable consistency in the red-ball format. The Ultimate Test presents the final opportunity for one of these sides to lift the coveted trophy, and every player must bring their top game. Here, let us take a look at three players who could make a significant impact in the WTC Final 2025.

Here are the three players whose team completely depends on for victory

3. Mitchell Starc

The left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc is expected to be one of the key players in the WTC Final. He is currently third on the list of highest wicket-takers in the 2023–25 cycle, and has claimed 72 wickets in 18 matches at an average of 27.27. He is known for his ability to swing the ball both ways and is likely to thrive in English conditions, where the pitch and weather can enhance his natural strengths.

Notably, the 35-year-old opted out of the Indian Premier League (IPL) to focus on red-ball cricket and began preparations early to get into rhythm ahead of the final. His experience and accuracy could prove vital for Australia in the Ultimate Test.
