Will it be King Kohli for India or the Big Show Maxwell for Aussies. Here is the exclusive list of 5 players to watch out for in the India Vs Australia world cup 2023 Final match.
Rohit Sharma
Check out our previous lists, you would find Rohit Sharma everytime. Why? The impactful start he gives to Indian innings, the leadership qualities he comes with, the fear he stomps on the opposition’s mind. Hope you got your answers. Statistically, he has scored second most runs for the team in this tournament. And you never know when Rohit Sharma is in the mood to hit a double ton! He has three in his bag and maybe we could see an epic inning in the India vs Australia final.
Virat Kohli
For us, Virat Kohli is the Player of the Tournament. He is the leading run scorer of the tournament. He just became the first ever player to score 700 runs in a world cup edition. Virat has eight 50+ scores in the tournament. Moreover, he must be looking to add another star to his golden collar. Australians already know what Kohli did to them in their last encounter at Chepauk.

KL Rahul
Apart from India’s first league match against Australia, India barely needed KL Rahul’s batting services in crunch situations so far in the tournament. But if the situation becomes similar like the previous meeting of India and Australia, KL Rahul could be the savior of the Indian team. Well, an Indian wicket keeper batsman who is also brilliant with DRS calls winning the cup for India, we have heard this before, right?
Josh Hazlewood
From the fierce pace trio of Australia, Hazlewood is the one who can spoil the Indian party with his accurate line and length. His record against Virat Kohli is also something that makes him a must-watch player. He dismissed Kohli five times in the last six ODIs they played against each other. Also not to forget his fierce bowling in the Semi-final clash against South Africa. That is why Josh Hazlewood is one of the 5 players to watch out for in India vs Australia final match of CWC 2023.
Mohammed Shami
We don’t think we need to tell you why Mohammed Shami is in this list after what he has done to the Kiwis in the Semi-final. With 23 wickets, Shami is the leading wicket-taker in this tournament. Scalping 5 wickets has become his routine practice. And if he takes another, Aussies will be in deep trouble for sure. Kangaroos must be finding ways to tackle the Shami hurdle in the final battle against India.
Both teams have faced each other in the ODI World Cup final in 2003, where Australia lifted the cup. India will be eyeing to take revenge on their own soil. The India Vs Australia Final match will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on November 19.
