This time for Africa! Protias Chase promised Bhoomi as Temba Bavuma aims to end the 27 -year trophy drought.

South Africa aims to add the first ICC Trophy since the turn of the century when they face Australia in the World Test Championship final starting on Wednesday. While Protiaz has fielded great sides over the years, the knockout games have not been their best match since winning the 1998 knockout trophy (now Champions Trophy). Temba Bavuma would hop that he runs against the All-Karna Australian side and takes his case on the land promised in Mecca of Cricket.

WTC final 2025: South Africa’s chase ICC Mahima

The last time South Africa won an ICC tournament, Triston Stabs was not even born. Thus protiazs face a long order of ending their barren running in the tournament. South Africa has come close in recent years, reaching the final of the T20 World Cup last year. Now, he has reached another final, facing the World Test Championship Final with Bavuma & Co. against Australia in 2025.

Protiaz won eight out of 12 matches, which he played in the WTC bicycle to top the standing. This is after effectively accepting its 2-print series against New Zealand, most of his star players are included in the SA20 instead. Bavuma has led the team from the front, in which only David Bedingam has scored more runs than them.

However, the experience is something that lacks proteases, which is very against them. The target of Pat Cummins & Co. will aim to protect its WTC title by defeating India in the 2023 tournament. Steve Smith has played 22 Tests in England alone, while the entire SA Squad managed a joint 28. On paper, Australians are clear favorite, but despite not being an expert opener in Xi.

There is history between the two teams. This is only the 4th SA vs AUS game since Newlands sandpaper gate dispute in 2018. The two teams last faced more than 2 years ago, in which Australians won 2–0 at home. At Lord’s, Australia will once again expect to repeat its 2023 heroes. South Africa will expect to eliminate its ICC heartache and add a trophy to your cabinet.
