WTC Final 2023: Key Players to Watch Out for in this Important Encounter

The World Test Championship Final between India and Australia is scheduled to be played next Wednesday at the Oval Stadium in London. The pitch is expected to be helpful for the batters and a lot of runs will be scored by both teams in the match which is a rare sight in the UK. There are a few rising stars and young players from both India and Australia who will be a part of this big final and in the below article, we have talked about the rising stars to watch out for in the match.

1. Todd Murphy (Australia)

The 19-year-old off-spinner from Australia is going to be the rising star to watch out for in the final if he gets a chance. He was brilliant with the ball in the recently concluded Border-Gavaskar trophy in India as he took 14 wickets in the series and bowled with an economy of 2.53 runs per over. He is being named as the successor of Nathan Lyon in Australia.

2. Yashasvi Jaiswal (India)

Jaiswal who was in sublime form in the recently concluded IPL scored 625 runs in the season with the help of a century. He has been on the rise in his domestic career till now but is yet to make his international debut which will happen very soon. The southpaw is still young and if he gets a chance to feature in the WTC Final, he will surely light up the stage with his batting because the pitch at the Oval will suit his style.

3. Ishan Kishan (India)

Kishan is another rising star who has made his white-ball debut and is very likely to make his red-ball debut too in the WTC Final against Australia. Kishan is an attacking batter and looks to score runs every time regardless of the situation. He could be the x-factor player for India in the final.
