Black Caps claim World Test Championship title

From Morning Report, 7:08 am on 24 June 2021

The Black Caps can finally say they're world champions, after winning the inaugural World Test cricket Championship final against India in Southampton this morning.

That's veteran New Zealand basman Ross Taylor hitting the winning runs... he ended up on 47.

Taylor told Sky Sport this is the best moment in his 15-year international career.

The Black Caps captain Kane Williamson was with Ross Taylor at the crease, finishing the innings with 52 runs. Williamson told Sky Sport it was a wonderful match to be a part of.

Former New Zealand Test bowler, Iain O'Brien, like many fans stayed up all night watching the match.

He spoke to Corin Dann.
