Australia captain Pat Cummins has suggested that the World Test Championship Final should be played in the country of the previous edition’s winner. Speaking ahead of their final against South Africa, Cummins floated the idea of the WTC final being shifted out of England, a country that has hosted the event for three straight editions.
Recently, reports had emerged that the Board of Control for Cricket in India is contemplating hosting the summit clash. Cummins also seemed to be on board with the idea of shifting the event outside of England but stated that in case the logistics were not possible, the final should always be hosted at Lord’s, the proverbial home of cricket.
“Logistically, it seems like that’s probably the easiest way to have one venue,” said Cummins.
“It’d be nice, maybe the previous winner hosts that for the next time, or something like that. But as an alternative, I think having it at Lord’s every cycle is also a pretty good place,” he added.
