India’s performance against Australia in ODI World Cup 2023 finals

Australia won the toss and chose to bowl first and dismiss the Indian batting lineup for the score of 240 runs at the end of 50 overs. In a must-win match, Australia got a low target to chase and won the game in 43 overs. 

Rohit Sharma on India losing the ODI World Cup 2023 finals to Australia, “The result has not gone our way. We were not good enough today. We tried everything but it wasn’t supposed to be. 20-30 runs more would have been good, KL and Kohli were stitching a good partnership and we were looking at 270-280 but we kept losing wickets.” 

“When you have 240 on the board, you want to take wickets but credit to Head and Labuschagne who stitched together a big partnership and put us completely out of the game. We tried everything we could but I feel the wicket got slightly better to bat under lights”, added Sharma.
