London: New Zealand captain Kane Williamson is excited about facing India in next month's World Test Championship (WTC) final as he sees Virat Kohli's play against the team as a great challenge. India and New Zealand will clash in the final of the first World Test Championship in Southampton from June 18.

"When we play against India, it has always been a great challenge and so it is really exciting to play against them," Williamson said in a video posted by ICC on his Twitter handle. "It's really exciting to be in the final, it's better to win, of course," said Williamson, 30, who is considered one of the best current batsmen in the world.

Talking about the championships and its advancement, Williamson said, "We saw that competitions in WTC brought real enthusiasm. The match was really close in this tournament. Like the India-Australia series and our series against Pakistan, where you had to work really hard to get a result, which is really great."
