New Delhi: As Australia lifts World Cup 2023, Indians have taken to the internet to express disappointment for the defeat. Indian batters concluded an explosive Cricket World Cup with a disappointing performance in the finals against Australia at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday.
In a power-packed display of game by Australia, India was bundled out for 240 in their 50 overs after being put to bat first by Aussies. On a tough batting surface, skipper Rohit Sharma (47 in 31 balls, with four boundaries and three sixes), Virat Kohli (54 in 63 balls, with four boundaries) and KL Rahul (66 in 107 balls, with one four) posted important knocks. Yet, the overall performance fell short of a victory.
As cricket is no less than a religion in India, this is extremely disappointing for all fans. Have a look at the twitter reactions:
