The team to India reached England on 3 June and after being in a strict quarantine for three days, the team started training. The WTC final match between India and New Zealand is to be played from June 18 to 22 at the Aegis Bowl.

India's team made their place in the final by winning the home Test series against England by 3-1. New Zealand's team is currently playing a two-match Test series against England to strengthen its preparations. If many former veterans are to be believed, then the Kiwi team can get the benefit of this Test series in the final. However, the Indian team's performance in Test cricket in the recent past has been unmatched and the team came to the ground without their regular captain Virat Kohli, bringing Australia to its soil.
