    2023 Cricket World Cup final

    The 2023 Cricket World Cup Final was a One Day International cricket match played at the
    Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, India, on 19 November 2023 to determine the
    winner of the 2023 Cricket World Cup.[2] It was played between host nation India and
    Australia.[3] It was the first time that Ahmedabad hosted a Cricket World Cup final.[4] It was
    the second time that India and Australia played a World Cup final against each other, after
    the 2003 final.[5]

    In the final, Australia defeated India to win a record-extending sixth World Cup title.[6]

    Background

    The 2023 Cricket World Cup was hosted by India. Originally, the competition was to be
    played from 9 February to 26 March 2023 but due to getting longer qualification time it was
    moved to October to November.[7][8] In July 2020, it was announced that the tournament
    would be moved to October and November as a result of the qualification schedule being
    disrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[9][10] The ICC released the tournament schedule
    on 27 June 2023.[11] Semi-finals were played in Mumbai and Kolkata while the final was held
    in Ahmedabad.[12]

    India secured a place in the final for the fourth time, after defeating New Zealand in the
    semi-final;.[13] having won two (1983 against the West Indies and 2011 against Sri Lanka)
    and lost one (2003 to current finalist Australia) [14]

    Australia qualified for a record-extending eighth time in the final, after defeating South
    Africa in the semi-finals; having won five (1987 against England, 1999 against Pakistan,
    2003 against current finalist India, 2007 against Sri Lanka, and 2015 against New Zealand)
    and lost two (1975 to the West Indies and 1996 to Sri Lanka).[15]

    It was the second time that India and Australia played a World Cup final against each other,
    the previous one being in 2003. None of the players from the squad of both teams were a
    part of that final, the only member who featured in that game was Rahul Dravid, India's head
    coach while there was no one from Australia's coaching staff and management being a part
    of 2003 final. However, there were 7 members from Australia's squad who were a part of
    the 2015 final that included David Warner, Steve Smith, Glenn Maxwell, Mitchell Starc, Josh
    Hazlewood (who were a part of the playing XI in the 2015 final), Pat Cummins and Mitchell
    Marsh, while from Indian team only Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin had featured in a
    World Cup Final in 2011 and among the duo
    2023 Cricket World Cup Final
    only Virat Kohli was a part of the playing XI
    in that final.[16]
