00:00 Australia produced a special performance with the ball to bowl out India for 240 in
00:07 50 overs in the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023 final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad
00:13 on Sunday.
00:14 This is the first time that India has been bowled out in the World Cup this year.
00:18 India started well, scoring 80 in the powerplay, but slow and low pitch made sure the batters
00:22 had to dig deep.
00:23 Virat Kohli, 54, and Kale Rahul, 67, kept the scoreboard ticking.
00:29 But once those two got out, it was Australia all over.
00:33 The dry pitch seemed to be assisting the bowlers as the Aussie attack choked the flow of runs
00:37 after the first powerplay.
00:39 Barring skipper Rohit Sharma, who played a fiery 31-ball-47-runs knock, none of the Indian
00:44 batters was able to dominate the bowling side.
00:46 Andals claim that the game is still open, particularly with the kind of form which Indian
00:50 bowlers have shown in the tournament so far.
00:53 All eyes are set on Mohd.
00:54 Shami, Jaswit Bumrah, and Mohd.
00:56 Siraj, the Indian speed trio which have decimated an array of batting lineups in the tournament
01:01 so far.
01:02 With Australian pacers, Michelle Stark, Josh Haysalwood, and Pat Cummins getting ample
01:06 amount of reverse swing, speculations arrive that the conditions would suit their Indian
01:10 counterparts as well.
01:11 However, experts have a word of caution due to the dew factor.
01:14 While the pitch is dry and assisting the pacers, the onset of dew could nearly eliminate the
01:18 scope of reverse swing they underlined.
01:20 Meanwhile, Captain Rohit Sharma would also be relying on his spinners to restrict the
01:24 flow of runs and pick crucial wickets.
01:26 Kuldeep Yadav, the informed Chinnaman, proved to be lethal against Pakistan in the match
01:31 played on the same ground on October 14.
01:33 Ravindra Jadeja, the left-arm-off spinner who has won a number of games for India on
01:37 the ground, could also prove to be the X-factor of the Indian bowling attack.
01:41 World Cup-winning captains Kapil Dev and MS Dhoni are gracing the title clash of the 50-over
01:45 World Cup as the final ceremony is a high-octane affair.
01:49 Indian Air Force's Suryakiran aerobatic team has also performed an air show of the
01:52 DOS.
01:53 Aditya Gadbhi of famed Khalasi, Bollywood music composer Preetam, singers Junita Gandhi,
01:59 Nakash Aziz, Akash Joshi, Tushar Joshi and Amit Mishra made the final a star-studded
