Australia Managing To Retain WTC Crown Would Speak A Lot About Its Players And Planning, Says Bangar
World Test Championship: Ever since Pat Cummins took over as Australia’s Test captain, the side has almost won everything in three and a half years of being at the helm, including the 2023 World Test Championship (WTC) final. Expectations will be sky high from Cummins & Co. to retain the WTC title they won in 2023 when they take on first-time finalists South Africa in what is billed as the ‘Ultimate Test’ at Lord’s from Wednesday.
Sanjay Bangar, the former India all-rounder who also served as their batting coach, believes if Australia retains its WTC title, it would be a testament to their players’ skill, meticulous planning and dedication towards becoming the world’s best men’s Test team.
“It would be very significant because see this is a format which has been designed quite thoughtfully as well and there's never a format which is nearly perfect. But at least I think what with the World Test Championship happens is that there is relevance for each and every Test match."
