New venue for WTC Finals? BCCI speaks to ICC to change WTC Finals venue

WTC Final venue: BCCI secretary Jay Shah has claims having spoken to ICC about changing WTC Final venue after 3 finals in England

The last two venues of World Test Championship (WTC) Finals have been in England. But now BCCI Secretary Jay Shah has claimed that they have spoken with ICC to change the venue. After the first 2 finals, the third final, i.e the WTC 2025 will also be played in England.

“We have spoken to the ICC about it. They will consider changing the venue,” Jay Shah said.

Interestingly, India played both the finals back in 2021 and 2023. However, India lost out on both the occasions. But the BCCI has spoken with the ICC to change the venue of the WTC Finals. It remains to be seen if the finals would be held in June should a change in venue for the finals take place.
