Steve Smith Also Falls, Australia in Trouble

In a dramatic turn of events at the World Cup final in Gujarat’s Narendra Modi Stadium, Australia’s pursuit of the 241-run target set by India has taken a hit with the departure of key batsman Steve Smith. The seasoned campaigner fell victim to the skillful Jasprit Bumrah, who claimed his second wicket of the match, leaving Australia at 47-3.

After the early blows of losing openers David Warner and Mitchell Marsh, the Australian team was counting on the experienced Steve Smith to anchor the innings. However, Bumrah’s delivery proved too challenging, leading to Smith’s dismissal and intensifying the pressure on the Australian side.

With the top-order struggle, Australia is now facing a challenging situation at 47-3. The required run rate is mounting, and the Indian bowlers are maintaining a relentless attack, making it a formidable task for the remaining batsmen.
