India Vs Australia World Cup Final 2023
In the Cricket World Cup final held at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad last evening, cricketer Travis Head delivered a scintillating century, while Marnus Labuschagne played the role of the perfect anchor, notching up a gritty 50. This stellar performance propelled Australia to a 6-wicket victory over India, securing their 6th crown.
Facing a target of 241, Australia encountered a shaky beginning with Jasprit Bumrah dismissing Mitchell Marsh and Steve Smith, while Mohammed Shami took down David Warner, leaving Australia struggling at 47/3. However, the narrative shifted as Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne took charge, forming a resilient partnership. Labuschagne also contributed with a determined half-century, guiding Australia to victory with a solid performance.
