(Reuters) - The final of the ICC World Test Championship between India and New Zealand will be held at the Ageas Bowl in Southampton in June, cricket's governing body (ICC) said on Wednesday.

The ICC initially had said the match would take place at Lord's but after discussions with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), they confirmed Southampton, which has an on-site hotel at the Ageas Bowl, would host the June 18-22 contest.
