During the match in Bangalore, India set a target of 160 for 8 while batting first. Shreyas Iyer was the only player to score a half-century.
Despite the pressure, the Indian bowlers persisted, with Mukesh Kumar claiming 3 wickets and Ravi Bishnoi taking 2, ultimately leading the team to a 6-run victory.
Arshdeep Singh, the fast bowler, delivered the final over, conceding just 3 runs, securing the team’s triumph by 6 runs.
Australia began their chase with a strong start. Travis Head and Josh Phillip put the Indian bowlers under pressure. However, Mukesh Kumar, Arshdeep, and Ravi continued to take wickets, not relenting in their efforts.
In 2007, Dhoni won the World Cup trophy and passed it on to the young players. Following suit, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma upheld this tradition. Surya presented the winning trophy to Jitesh and Rinku.
