While rugby dominates as the number one sport in Australia,the pressure surrounding the Australian team is nowhere near the immense pressure faced by their Indian counterparts.The tension among Indian fans is so much,comparable to the anxiety experienced the night before a crucial university exam.And who can blame them?It has been a decade-long wait for an ICC silverware and twelve years since the last World Cup victory.Only two players,Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin,remain from the 2011 World Cup squad.The emotions run deep,especially for cricket fans in their mid-30 who vividly remember the heartbreak of March 23,2003.
However,setting aside the emotional rollercoaster,let’s focus on the cricketing action that has already unfolded.There has been much debate about the pitch conditions,with speculations about whether the final will be played on a used surface. Mitchell Marsh’s prediction, made in jest, went viral adding to the excitement surrounding the match. The news of Richard Kettleborough officiating as the umpire has already given fans sleepless nights. Pat Cummins expressed his eagerness to silence the 1.3 lakh Indian fans by winning the World Cup.But deep down,Cummins knows that it is easier said than done.India has defeated Australia four times in ODIs this year,including once in this tournament. India has displayed unwavering strength and resilience, even in the face of their vice-captain’s injury.
Reports suggest that the Ahmedabad pitch will be similar to the one used in the India vs Pakistan game, expected to play slightly sluggish. Although traditionally, batting first after winning the toss has been key to success, in a match between these two teams, anything can happen. India has made chasing targets seem effortless, while Australia pulled off a spectacular victory when Glenn Maxwell executed a remarkable heist. Is there a favorite on paper? India might have a slight edge, but when it comes to Australia, it’s best to discard any preconceived notions.
Regardless of what Captain Rohit Sharma says about all 15 players having a chance to play or the undecided XI, the reality is that India will remain unchanged 99.9 percent. Even Australia knows this. Why meddle with a winning combination that has secured victory in the last six matches? However,the temptation to include Ravichandran Ashwin,especially against a team that struggles against spinners,is hard to ignore.But with Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav performing outstandingly,sacrificing a batsman for a third spinner could prove to be a decision India may regret.
As the road to the World Cup final nears its end,both Rohit Sharma and Pat Cummins find themselves at a great moment.Cummins has the opportunity to silence his critics and join the ranks of legendary Australian captains such as Allan Border,Steve Waugh,Ricky Ponting and Michael Clarke.For Rohit Sharma,this is a chance to channel his frustration from being left out of the 2011 World Cup squad into a title winning performance that will be remembered for ages.Brace yourselves for eight hours of ups downs action as India goes head to head with Australia in the World Cup final.
