India lost the 2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup final to Australia by six wickets. Some reasons for the loss include:
- Pitch conditions: The pitch in Ahmedabad was slower and drier than usual. Australia used this to their advantage by bowling cutters.
- Middle order: The middle order faltered.
- Target: The target of 241 runs was below par.
- Boundaries: India only managed four fours in the last 40 overs.
- Batting: Australia's bowlers, led by Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins, consistently chipped away at India's batting lineup.
- Partnership: Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne put together a 192-run partnership.
India did put up a brave fight in the second innings, with Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah getting rid of two of Australia's top batters in back-to-back overs.
