New Delhi: England will host the next three editions of the World Test Championship, the International Cricket Council decided at its annual conference in Singapore on Sunday.
All previous three WTC finals have been held in England too and the ICC announced that statusquo will be maintained though some reports had suggested that some member countries wanted the final match to be held in a new venue.
“The Board also confirmed the awarding of hosting rights for the ICC World Test Championship Finals for the 2027, 2029, and 2031 editions to the England and Wales Cricket Board, following a successful track record in hosting recent finals,” the ICC said in a statement.
South Africa are the reigning WTC champions, having beaten Australia in the final at Lord’s.
