Cummins then got the in-form Shreyas Iyer in the next over and KL Rahul and Kohli tried to steady the Indian ship. The boundaries dried up almost entirely after the 10th over and Kohli fell on 54 off 63. Rahul then tried to hold the innings together but India were dealt another blow when Ravindra Jadeja, promoted ahead of Suryakumar Yadav, fell in the 36th over. Rahul ground out a half-century while SKY gave him company in what was the last stand of recognised batters for India. That ended with Rahul falling on 66 off 107 to Starc. Mohammed Siraj and Kuldeep Yadav then hacked together 14 runs for the last wicket and India were all out for 240 in 50 overs.
Team India started their defence well with Mohammed Shami taking the new ball instead of Mohammed Siraj and he struck with the second ball of his first over, sending back David Warner. Jasprit Bumrah then got the wicket of Mitchell Marsh. While both bowlers were expensive, they sent back two of Australia's most dangerous top-order batters.
Leading Australia's response after a shaky start, opener Travis Head slammed a brilliant century while Marnus Labuschagne played a patient knock of 57 off 109 balls. The second-highest run stand in the World Cup final powered Australia to a six-wicket win as Rohit and Co. extended their trophy drought in the ICC events. Superstar Head was named the Player of the Match for his memorable 137-run knock against the hosts at the Narendra Modi Stadium. India's Virat Kohli was named the Player of the World Cup.
