Yes ,you are right. Indian team performed very bad. In my opinion,if target would be 300+ then it would be very difficult for Australia. In Final match, 300 score is big score to chase. But India can't make handsome score to defend. When Australian 3 wickets fell ,it seemed India will caught Australia  batsmans under 200 score but Travis Head and Labuschagne played very well and they made a good partnership and they snatched the match from Indian players.India is best team but Australia also proved that they are king not in only home ground but in also Indian ground,Ahmadabad. Mohammed Shami didn't performed well in Final match.

Well.. let's be fair. The pitch at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad was a little bit tricky. IMO, 260-280 would have been a decent total on that track. The problem with India was that once they lost the wicket of Shreyas Iyer, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul became over-defensive and were scoring just 2-3 runs per over. And once Kohli got out, Indian batting lost their balance and were losing wickets quite frequently. And for this match, India didn't had any bowling allrounders. They didn't included Ashwin or Shardul in the XI and as a result the Australians were able to wrap up the Indian innings without much effort.
