The Australians are on their way to winning the World Test Championship after dominating the early stages of the one-off Test at the Oval. Posting a formidable first inning score of 469, thanks to centuries from Travis Head and Steve Smith, Australia's bowling attack picked up a bunch of early wickets to put the pressure on India.

India have their work cut out if they are to avoid losing their second successive World Test Championship, after losing to New Zealand in the inaugural Ultimate Test in 2021. This one-off match brings to an end the last two years of the Test match cycle. There has to be a winner at the end of this Test, so there is still plenty to play for. 

India and Australia met in a four Test series in March which the host nation won 2-1. But the beauty of the World Test Championship is that the match is played on a neutral venue so both sides will not be used to the English conditions or the Duke ball which will be used at the Oval. Both nations finished first and second in Test match results over the last two years which is why they are playing each other. If you fancy a bet on this Test, it's always worth looking for any advantage you can in terms of enhanced odds, betting offers and free bets that the best cricket betting sites have on offer.
