Fierce rivals on the pitch and close friends off it, New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson thinks it would be "quite cool" to walk out for toss alongside his Indian counterpart Virat Kohli in the inaugural ICC World Test Championship final starting June 18 in Southampton.

Both Kohli and Williamson are looking for that elusive ICC silverware under their leadership and the Black Caps skipper is aware that it won't be easy against a "world class Indian fast bowling attack". "...we have played against each other in so many different levels and competitions and have known each other fairly well. So, it will be quite cool walking out there, doing the toss and having a bit of contact in the first Test Championship Final," Williamson told the ICC's official website when asked about his rivalry with India captain since their U-19 days in 2008. Williamson said that he is well aware of India's bowling depth and their recent historic series win in Australia. "Yeah, they have got a fantastic attack. Brilliant, obviously a brilliant side. Throughout we have seen the depth they have as well, certainly saw that in Australia as well.
