India vs Australia Score, WTC Final 2023 Day 5: Australia Win By 209 Runs

• Australia defeated India in the final of 2021-23 ICC World Test Championship, by a margin of 209 runs. • Chasing a target of 444 runs in the fourth innings, India were bowled out for 234 runs. • None of the Indian batters could score a half-century in the last innings. • For Australia, Nathan Lyon picked up a four-fer. ALL OUT! That's the game done for India, that's the four-fer secured for Nathan Lyon, and most importantly, that's the mace bagged for the Australian cricket team. This has been as dominating a performance as they would have hoped for, considering this was a final match. After scoring 469 runs in the first innings, wherein both Travis Head and Steve Smith struck centuries, the Aussies restricted India to a meagre total of 296 runs. The batting was not up to the mark in the second innings, with Australia declaring at 270/8, but they came up with a scintillating bowling display yet again, calling curtains to India's innings at 234 runs. For the Indians, it will be time to go back to the drawing room. It is their second consecutive defeat in a World Test Championship final, and their decade-long wait for an ICC trophy will be prolonged even further. Questions are bound to be raised on every aspect of the Indian team, including their decision to bat first, and also the call to leave out the number one Test bowler, Ravichandran Ashwin. Moreover, the batting approach was questionable too, with the team losing seven wickets in 71 runs today. If you have stuck wit...

WTC Final HIGHLIGHTS, IND vs AUS Day 4: India 164/3 (40 overs); Kohli, Rahane rebuild; need 280 to win on final day

I think we have the runs on the board, always look for more wickets, but they played well (on Rahane and Kohli). We’ll have another chance tomorrow. Looked good to me (on the Green catch), we were happy and the right decision was made. It’s not great to see them scoring at 6 rpo, but we pegged them back, quick wickets does help and we’ll look for more tomorrow. I thought Mitch (Starc) played beautifully, attacked at the right moment and took the pressure off me. A tricky little period in the morning and we got over well. Class players, this is a good partnership, we need to remain patient, hit the right areas and hopefully the wickets will come. • Lyon continues. Lyon drifts one into Rahane’s prodding front-and. Stifled appeal and umpire Illingworth denies a wicket. Fuller ball on the loop and Rahane digs it out. Is that an edge? Fuller ball outside the off-stump and Rahane’s attempted drive misses the ball on the outside-edge. The ball deflects sharply after a brief stop in Carey’s glove and it seems like Rahane’s bat made the noise after it hit the ground. • Cummins starts with a no-ball. Out!! Pujara tries to upper-cut one over the cordon. Knicks it straight to the keeper. Rahane joins Kohli at the crease. Welcomed with a bouncer as Rahane ducks for cover. Cheteshwar Pujara c Carey b Cummins 27(47) [4s-5] Pujara vs Cummins in Tests Runs: 180 Balls: 617 Avg: 22.5 Dismissals: 8 • Lyon into the attack. Appeals from the Aussies after a catch at short-leg. No bat involved bu...
