The first-ever World Test Championship final is going to take place from June 18 at the Ageas Bowl in Southampton, England. Both teams have been the most consistent ones in the run-in for the WTC final. However, former Pakistan cricketer Ramiz Raja believes the interest level for the WTC final wouldn’t be of this level if India wasn’t playing in it. Had it been some other team playing New Zealand, there wouldn’t have been that much interest," Raja told India News Sports. As long as he plays the first 20-25 over straight and doesn’t break his wrist very much, he can succeed in this [WTC Final] Test match," he added.
