BOOTH: Imperious India appears to be on the verge of lifting the World Cup in front of their home audience, but Pat Cummins' Australia will do nothing more than to spoil the party and break a billion hearts in Sunday's final tier

www.dailymail.co.uk, November 18, 2023
LAWRENCE BOOTH IN AHMEDABAD: If one soundbite sums up this World Cup, it came on the eve of Sunday's final between India and Australia. With not far off 100,000 fans - almost entirely Indian - at Ahmedabad's cavernous Narendra Modi Stadium, Australia's captain Pat Cummins wondered how his team would do. "There's nothing more satisfying," he said, "than hearing a large crowd go still."

After losing their hopes of a consolation victory over Australia due to another lame effort with the bat, England has finally been put out of their World Cup misery.
