public class Test implements Cloneable {
          public static void main(String[] args) throws CloneNotSupportedException {
                    Test t1 = new Test();
                    System.out.println(t1.clone().getClass().getName());
          }
}

Output:
PS C:UsersVICTUSDocumentsjava_work> javac Test.java
PS C:UsersVICTUSDocumentsjava_work> java Test
Test

Since output printed is “Test”, it means the returned dynamic type of new object(cloned) is Test, then why do I need to typecast it.
