Australia’s journey to the WTC 2023 Final

Australia will meet India in the World Test Championship (WTC) Final at London's Kennington Oval, starting on June 7.

Under Pat Cummins, Australia dominated the 2021-23 cycle and finished at the top the standings.

Australia registered 11 wins in the second cycle and faced three defeats. Five matches ended in a draw.

In the inaugural season, the Aussies narrowly missed out on a final berth having finished at the third spot.

Let’s have a look at Australia’s journey in the WTC 2021-23:

The Ashes domination

Australia's first assignment in the cycle was the home Ashes 2021-22 where the hosts scripted a dominating 4-0 win.

Australia’s tour of Pakistan 2022

In March 2022, Australia toured Pakistan for the first time since 1998. The opening two Tests ended in draws and Australia won the final match to clinch the series 1-0.

Draw series against Sri Lanka

Australia then traveled Sri Lanka for a two-match series which ended in a 1-1 draw. The visitors won the first game before the Islanders bounced back and claimed victory in the 2nd match.

Thrash West Indies at home

In late 2022, Australia hosted West Indies for the 2-match Test series where they whitewashed the tourists.

2-0 win over South Africa

The Aussies continued their domination in the 3-match home Test series against South Africa. The hosts won first two games while the final Test ended in a draw due to rain.

The India tour 2023

Australia's only series defeat in the cycle came in their tour of India. The hosts won first two games before Aussies grabbed triumph in the third. India then clinched the series 2-1 after the final match ended in a draw.
