After Winning the toss and bowling first IN WORLD TEST CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL 2023 became quite shocking for Indian captain Rohit Sharma as it was 280 runs Required in 97 overs on stumps day 4.

Australia won the match by 207 runs and became new test champions team.

Australia played well and kept India on backfoot from the start of the match. 1st their batting then the bowling department did a great job. After losing quick wickets they remain stuck on the plan and did not lose the focus. On the other hand India after going short of 196 runs was already in trouble and their bowling was better in 2nd innings but the total was 440 and no team till now chased that total in test history.
TWEETS AND REACTIONS
That was brutal, emphatic stuff from Australia. By the end of the Smith/Head partnership on Day 1, India’s WinViz was 15% – it never got back above that. For the Aussies, it’s the start of a legacy-defining summer. For India, it feels a little like the end of an era.
