The WTC final will be held at London's famous Kennington Oval Stadium, where India will face Australia in the second edition of the championship. This will be the first time in 20 years that the two teams will compete against each other in a men's senior ICC event final. The last time they faced each other was during the summit clash of the 2003 ODI World Cup.

India has become the first team to reach the final of the WTC on two different occasions, thanks to Virat Kohli's captaincy. They had played in the inaugural edition's final in 2021 but lost to New Zealand at Southampton's Ageas Bowl.

The upcoming WTC final will be a historic event for both teams as they fight for the title for the first time in history. This will also be the first time that Pat Cummins and Co. will be playing in the final, as they narrowly missed making it in the previous edition due to an overrated penalty that helped New Zealand clinch the title.

In conclusion, India's qualification for the WTC final for the second consecutive time demonstrates their consistent performance in the Test format. The final match against Australia will be a thrilling contest, with both teams striving to make history by winning the title for the first time.
