Australia's Winning Formula: Cummins Unveils Squad for WTC Showdown

Australia's cricket captain, Pat Cummins, has disclosed the starting lineup for his team ahead of the ICC World Test Championship final against South Africa. The match is set to commence on June 11 at Lord's, as reported by the ICC on its website.

In a strategic move, former No. 1 Test batter Marnus Labuschagne is set to open alongside Usman Khawaja. Meanwhile, Josh Hazlewood has secured his place in the team over Scott Boland, joining forces with left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc and Cummins himself in the bowling attack.

All-rounder Cameron Green makes his Test return following back surgery, while Beau Webster keeps his place in the squad, adding depth with his medium pace and spin. Fresh from their recent title win, Cummins and Co. look to defend the championship, maintaining their undefeated streak over the past two years as they face the Proteas, who are debuting in the WTC final.
