WTC Final 2025 | Australia vs South Africa: Timing, TV channels and livestreaming details

Ahead of the the high-profile clash at Lord's, we take a look at all you need to know about match timings, TV channels, and livestreaming.

Australia will have to dust off the cobwebs but are still fancied to successfully defend their World Test Championship (WTC) crown against equally ring-rusty South Africa in the final at Lord’s in London, starting on Wednesday, June 11.

The five-day clash comes on the heels of a plethora of limited overs cricket over the last five months and both teams have been scrambling to prepare for a high-profile return to the red-ball game.

Australia have not played a Test since beating Sri Lanka in Galle in February when they made sure of a top-two finish in the standings from results for the 2023-25 WTC cycle.

South Africa were assured of top place when they won their last Test against Pakistan at home in January to book a first-ever finals appearance.
