KL Rahul Getting Out In World Cup Final Meant India Just Couldn’t Go Ahead: Irfan Pathan
ODI World Cup: Former India left-arm fast-bowler Irfan Pathan believes wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul getting out in the 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup final against Australia meant the hosts’ just couldn’t get a move on in their batting innings.
In front of a 92,453-strong crowd at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Rahul top-scored with 66, but it came off 107 balls, and was able to find the boundary rope just once as Australia’s bowlers kept a tight leash on him and Virat Kohli in the middle overs.
It resulted in the duo never finding the acceleration and India eventually making 240, which Australia chased down in 43 overs, thanks to Travis Head’s 137 and Marnus Labuschagne’s 58 not out, to clinch their sixth World Cup title.
