They claimed their sixth ODI World Cup title with a resounding win at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, shattering India’s dreams after an impressive performance in the group stage.
While the day remains one of disappointment and heartbreak for Indian fans, it is a moment of pride for Australia, who triumphed in a World Cup final they entered as underdogs. Marking the anniversary of that memorable victory, one of Australia’s standout players from the match shared a post that is sure to deepen the sting for Indian supporters even a year later.
Marnus Labuschagne, who played a steady innings of 58* to anchor one end while Travis Head unleashed his explosive batting, revisited the moment by re-sharing a tweet he posted after the final. He captioned it “Memories” and included a picture of himself and Head lifting the World Cup trophy.
On November 20, 2023, the morning after Australia’s World Cup victory and celebrations, Marnus Labuschagne had tweeted “Good morning, Australia,” accompanied by the iconic image of him and Travis Head lifting the trophy.
The duo’s 192-run partnership had shattered the morale of India’s bowling attack, which struggled to break their stand despite a strong start with the ball. Travis Head, with a stunning 137 off 120 balls, was named Player of the Match, as India earlier faltered on a challenging pitch where runs were hard to come by.
