The team led by Rohit Sharma has advanced to the final with ease. In the semifinal, they defeated New Zealand by batting first and amassing 397 runs. Despite being threatened by the middle order of New Zealand, they scored enough runs to win by a huge margin of 70. With ten straight victories under their belts, Rohit and his team would want to maintain the momentum. In the World Cup finals, facing the Australians with a 5-2 World Cup winning record won’t be simple. With home advantage, Rohit and his team would try to win their third title.
In the greatest game of his life, Rohit Sharma, who has given the team fantastic starts, will try to replicate that performance with Shubman Gill by his side. With 711 runs, Virat Kohli has been in great form. He will try to put up his best effort in the middle order against KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer, who have also contributed runs in the previous two games. This batting lineup gains strength from Suryakumar Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja, who will want to challenge the Australian spinners.
The pressure was on the Indian bowlers in the last match. The side is concerned about the lack of bowling depth. To put pressure on the Australians, they would like to see early wickets from Mohammad Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah.

With their variances, Kuldeep Yadav and Jadeja will try to take advantage of Ahmedabad’s conditions and frustrate the batsmen.
