Anyway, India has a chance to win this World Cup but the toss played a big role in the final as well. Due to BCCI's terrible decision and Starsport's decision, they organized a Day-Night match where both teams did not have a fair chance to fight. We could have seen a more exciting final match than this one. But no worries, I am sad at all.

The pitch did play a big role in Australia's win for sure, but these are all just excuses at the end of the day. Fact is that Australia was the better team in the final plain and simple while India choked once again.

I truly detest the fact that pitch conditions are different for both teams in the same match which is an unfair aspect of cricket.

The correct decision of the Australian team is to win the toss and take the fielding decision. Because on that day the Australian team performed very well in the moment of pressure which gave a befitting reply to the Indian team. Earlier, Australia lost to India by a huge margin but Australia gave a befitting reply in the final match. Only Head was the main tool of the Australian team as he played enough to take the team to the top of the win. Looking at the role of the pitch, they could have guessed that batting later was the most appropriate move. Because everyone could guess that India will definitely win the final match, but the Australian team responded with bowling and batting performance to take the team to the final.

Indian team was just outplayed. There is no excuse. The captaincy of Australian team was absolutely on the point. They set up the field really well. It was a pretty unusual field setting in the middle of from Australia. They forced Virat Kohli to take a single through the third man region. And eventually, Virat Kohli got out trying to do that. And Australia had a really good plan which they executed perfectly. And honestly, it did not matter how well India was going to bowl Australia had the capability of chasing the target. we have seen Australia winning impossible matches in this tournament. Especially against Afghanistan. And I think India was used to playing in fast pitches throughout the whole tournament, so when they eventually had to play in a slow pitch, they didn't do well.
