The World Test Championship Final has been played out at The Oval in London, with a match between the so-called two best Test teams in the world at present.

On today's program, we will look back at the match in full - the scores, the drama, the good, the bad and the ugly.

We cast our eye over the match details, and where the game was won and lost. We also take a more detailed look at each team's performance, and determine if the match itself serves as a satisfying determination of the winner.

We also discuss the situation with over rates in this match and in Test cricket as a whole, whether the pitch was up to Test match standard or just a ploy to help the home team in the upcoming Ashes series, and whether technology should be used in the decion of on-field catches, and just how the over-reaction to a fair catch would have been interpreted if it had been by Australian supporters.

All of that can be found here on The Casual Mankadder, on the podcast where a cricket tragic continues his monologue incessantly, Thoughts from the Metal Cavern.
