One cannot predict when time will turn and fate will turn. However, whatever was happening with Team India during the ODI World Cup 2023 was also the result of its hard work and good play. While playing in his own home, among his own people, the vehicle of victory was unstoppable by anyone. The result of which was that Team India reached the final of the ICC Men's ODI World Cup without losing any match, where it faced Australia on 19 November 2023.
Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad is said to be the largest cricket ground in the world. But, seeing the presence of people who had come to watch the title battle between India and Australia, that day it also seemed small. Every corner of the stadium was packed. The view is like a blue sea. And there was only one name on everyone's lips – India. There was only one desire – that shining trophy of the ODI World Cup.
There was excitement in the final of the ODI World Cup, but that excitement was made even more intense by Australian captain Pat Cummins's statement. Before the match, Pat Cummins had said that he knows how to silence the Indian fans of Ahmedabad.
Toss is important on Ahmedabad ground. The winning team benefits from this and the Australian captain had already got this benefit. He won the toss and put India to bat first. Thanks to Virat Kohli's 54 runs and KL Rahul's 66 runs, the Indian team scored 240 runs in 50 overs while playing first.
