 This week Friday the World Test Championships last 2 test matches for the 2019-21 cycle will be played. The final between New Zealand and India and West Indies vs South Africa 2nd test which is the last test match of an official series for the world test championship. 

The New Zealand and India match will give us the inaugural winner of the world test championship as the two teams will battle it out in Southampton to crown the best team of the greats format in cricket history.

South Africa vs West Indies test match also has high stakes as if South Africa win the second test match they will finish off in 5th position by having a stronger winning percentage as Pakistan who are currently in 5th have a winning percentage of 43.3% and South Africa will have a winning percentage of 44 if they win the second test match. 

If West Indies win the second test match then they will finish in 6th and South Africa will drop to 7th. If the match ends in a draw South Africa will finish in 6th and West Indies in 7th.

With the final set to happen in England at the Southampton cricket ground both teams are planning r they will make their way to England considering the testing times we in.

He went on to say how he didn't like how his brother Jimmy was disrespecting his cousin Roman Reigns and that he had to be dealt with as that was what was best for the family and to ensure they stay on top Jimmy would have to fall in line.  Reigns made his entry at this moment with Paul Heyman by his side they made their way to the ring and Reigns got a mike and said Jimmy would be taken care of but first, he needs to deal with Cesaro who defends his Universal Championship against this Sunday.
