WTC Final 2027 Moved To The Oval After Lord's Pitch Comes Under ICC Scrutiny

ICC moved the 2027 World Test Championship final from Lord's to The Oval due to an unsatisfactory pitch rating.

Lord's has one ICC demerit point from a previous pitch assessment.

The Oval previously hosted a well-received WTC final in 2023.

The decision aims to ensure a balanced contest between bat and ball.
