The final of the Cricket World Cup will be played between the host country India and Australia. India beat New Zealand in the semi-final on Wednesday and Australia were too strong for South Africa on Thursday.
Five-time world champions Australia won by 3 wickets. The South Africans started the batting but after more than eleven overs they had already lost four wickets. David Miller managed to hold his own for a long time (101 runs), but after his flight the batsmen started dropping like flies again.
Travis Head got Australia off to a flying start with 62 runs in 48 balls (two sixes and nine fours). David Warner (29 runs from 18 balls) also appeared to be in a hurry. The overall result then became much more difficult, but after 47.2 overs the spoils were won.
The final takes place on Sunday at the massive Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, where India will be supported by a blue sea of 132,000 fans.
