ICC World Cup 2023: Australia (241/4) defeat India (240 all out) by 6 wickets to win the final of ICC World Cup 2023

Was always nervous about India having an off day in the final. Everything went perfectly smoothly for them coming into the final. WCs are ultimately won by teams who have come back from serious pressure situations and know what to do to bounce back when things go dicy

Good point.

The Aussies faced a considerable amount of adversity throughout the WC and it lead to positive results today.

In comparison, the Indians looked shellshocked as soon as they faced adversity in this game both with the bat and now with the ball.
 
Star Sports with their Kohli phobia and non stop hype jinxed the team.
 
How can a nation be this good at sports, and mentally this strong? Feel jealous of Aussies, they are champions in all sports and especially cricket.
 
Indian fans exiting now where is that person was holding banner Erne Stadion Erne Pokal
 
Why are they showing that if Surya had 2nd innings pitch it would be different? Wasn't Rohit going to bat first.
 
There's no malayali in this wc in Indian team so no wc for India.. a malayali is a good luck charm for India 😝

Champions in swimming, cricket. Thats it. Nothing else?
Hockey ? No one really cares for it anymore. It's Belgium anyway.
 
You would think this is the first day night game ever played in one day internationals
 
Australia had a proper training against quality spinners in the semi final against SA
 
Curse the IPL, we stopped winning real trophies the day this madness consumed Indian cricket.
 
Like I always believe. Pick dynamic players.

Sky is a hack t2 crap
Rahul is mentally weak.68 off 100 in this era cmon son

Iyer short ball problem

Poor stuff.

Rohit seemingly gave up when AUS were 100-3. Field spread, easy singles despite only 240 on board and dew starting to settle in. You had to attack before it was too late.

His captaincy vs PAK was excellent but today felt he missed a trick.
 
Lolwut? Do you need a burnol now? Why do I have to post here to enjoy any match and prove to trolls like you that I support India? Who the hell are you anyway? You are coming up with childish logics here lol. Go cry somewhere else now. #SabChangaSi :inti

You said you only post here in important matches...so was Semi final not important enough game for you?

Lets be honest, you were hiding since 10th Sept game in Asia cup and only made sporadic appearance here since as India were winning all matches. You briefly showed up during Pak game but then logged out soon. Today your joy can be seen by one and all.

Deshdrohis like you and your real support can be seen by all.

Every Malayalee I have met hates KLRahul who they blame for taking Sanju Samsons spot, this final performance by KL will give them ammunition
 
Not gonna lie. We are the new chokers.
2015 SF, 2016 T20 SF, 2017 CT final, 2019 SF, 2022 SF and today 2023 Finals.
Add two WTC finals to that list.
I'd rather be there and choke, than crap our pants every tournament, rely on other team's results, and always lose to our arch-rivals.

It's no consolation if you lose this, but at least you're at the table - head of the table at the top table.

We're still trying to book a reservation to get through the door. India and Indian cricket is in a good place.
 
Only happy part from today is that Modi won't be able to extract political mileage from an Indian win. Some things are more important in life than cricket, maybe things will improve once BJP is kicked out of power. They have been nothing but bad news since they took over.
 
Na biryani mey na kisi car mey, jo maza aaye India ki haar mey. 😘

Better luck next time, bois. Fair warning, the Pakistan team will be at its peak in 2027, InshaAllah. I don't foresee India winning the ODI WC in our lifetimes.

Top-5 match key mujrim:

1) Rahul: the greatest tuk tuk of all time along with keeping that would make K.Akmal blush.
2) Kohli: Completely gave up the momentum which is awful from one of the GOATs. Bonafide choke.
3) Gill: The next great Indian flop. Timid, zero technique and failing on this ground for him is unacceptable.
4) Rohit: Brilliant batting but some of the most brainless captaincy of all-time. Completely neutered Shami and Siraj by swapping them around.
5) The BCCI: In trying to stack the deck against the opposition, they got a taste of their own medicine.
 
He is better than Warner.

He will also open in Tests after Warner retires. The next 5-6 years will be golden for him.
Warner is done. He's already 37 years old.

I doubt Australia will include him in the Pakistan Test series at home. Warner will score another triple century against the hapless Pakistani attack but it will do nothing for Australia. Or maybe they'll just include him so he can say his farewells.

Australians are pretty smart people. Even after winning the World Cup, they will realize that Warner (despite having a good World Cup) is becoming a liability now. They will move him on.
 
No m only stating what I felt. M not too thrilled at this Indian defeat
No need to explain yourself, many Pakistanis will have gradually left behind any attachment to Indian cricket since their govt's deliberate attempt to sideline and diminish Pakistan's status in the game.
 
Lol hahahahah Indian commentators struggling for words here.
Indians deserve this humiliation.Hahahahah
 
Pakistan showed more fight against eng in t20 world cup than India today. Both team batting kind of collapsed in the final
 
Have we or india or any tram from subcontinent ever produced a player as Good as Travis Head. What a legendary player.
killed india I wtc final.
Now here.

He is like a terminator. These are true goat calibre player.
 
If Pakistan were playing India in the final and Babar won the toss, he would have batted.

Babar is stupid.
Even if he did bowl first, Pakistan’s pathetic bowlers and fielders wouldn’t have restricted India to 240 and even if they did, our batsmen would have bottled it.
 
Funny how the BCCI scheduled 5 T20s vs Aus starting four days from now.

It was a backup plan for the inevitable WC loss.
 
Allan Border.
Steve Waugh.
Ricky Ponting.
Michael Clarke.

Pat Cummins has the opportunity to join the legendary list today (Aussie ODI WC winning captains).
 
Curse the IPL, we stopped winning real trophies the day this madness consumed Indian cricket.
You won the 2011 WC and 2013 CT after advent of IPL.

However you had one of the greatest white-ball captains of all time who had arguably more limited bowling resources at his disposal than this team.
 
Pakistan showed more fight against eng in t20 world cup than India today. Both team batting kind of collapsed in the final
What's even more amazing is that Travis Head is so calm it's unreal. Just another day in the office. Just doing my job.
 
Head thank you my man will we see SRK performance? Can Aus use the bus booked by Indian team for the parade ?

Calm down there with that deshdrohi thing. I am not the one who left this country to earn British Pound and show fake support towards India. I wasn't here before Asia Cup as well because I didn't like this new forum with ads and it was getting difficult to post here. Regarding Nz match, I posted after the match because I didn't even watch the match properly. As I said earlier, you are using childish logics to ease your pain now. And it is crystal clear that you urgently need burnol to apply on different parts of your body. Get away now, fake indian supporter. :inti
 
I'm not.

Happy for he Aussie bros.

Enjoying this thrashing.
How can I possibly feel bad for Indian cricket fans when they were so disrespectful and so over confident at every turn? They were acting as if they had already won the World Cup.
 
What a knock this is by Head. India have been outplayed.

What a time to step up boy.
 
Cummins 12 off 68 balls
Labuschagne 45* off 90 balls so far.

Quality innings both of them given the match situations.
