India and Australia clash in the ICC World Cup 2023 final at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday, November 19. Both teams are facing each other in the final of the tournament after 20 years and are expected to produce a thriller after stellar performances in this edition.
Australia are eyeing their sixth ODI World Cup title having last triumphed in 2015. They started their 2023 campaign with big defeats against India and South Africa but quickly recovered to make a stunning comeback. Pat Cumins-led side won the remaining seven group matches and beat South Africa in the semifinal.
Meanwhile, the tournament hosts India are enjoying their best-ever World Cup campaign with 10 wins in 10 games and all came with dominant results. They registered the highest-ever total in the semifinal to beat New Zealand by 70 runs where Virat Kohli famously scored his 50th ODI century and Mohammed Shami bagged record seven wickets.
India and Australia have played each other 13 times in ODI World Cup history where the Men in Blue have recorded only five wins. But Rohit Sharma‘s side has an impressive head-to-head record against Australia in recent encounters and enters the final as favourites.
