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.
When Australia lost the first two matches of the world cup, everyone of criticizing Pat Cummins for the failure because he was not aggressive as a captain and to win the rest of the match and then to have a great game plan to counter India in the final was marvelous. Credit should be given to the coaching staff and the captain for leading from the front through the tournament with the bat even though he did not play any fancy innings but was helping the team during crucial situations and with the ball and then executing them in the field was perfect.
