The title match of the World Cup-2023 will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday. This match will be between India and Australia. Team India reached the final by defeating New Zealand in the semi-final, while Australia defeated South Africa and secured a place in the final. The teams of India and Australia will face each other in the final of the World Cup after 20 years. In 2003, when the two teams met, Australia won. Team India will look to avenge this defeat 20 years ago.
If Team India wins this match, they will win the World Cup trophy for the third time. Before this, she has become the champion in 1983 and 2011. Team India has defeated the Kiwi team and knocked them out of the World Cup, but they will now have to overcome a former player in the final. This veteran is an important part of the Australian team. He is the spin bowling coach of Australia.
We are talking about former New Zealand all-rounder Daniel Vettori. Vettori took over as Australia’s spin bowling coach in May 2022. Vettori has been one of the greatest all-rounders of his time. He played international cricket for 17 years. Vettori took 362 wickets in Tests, 305 in ODIs and 38 in T20Is for New Zealand. Along with this, he has scored 4531 runs in Tests, 2253 runs in ODIs and 205 runs in T20Is.
Vettori made his debut for the Kiwi team at the age of 18. In 2007, he also took over the command of the team. Under his captaincy, the Kiwi team reached the final of the 2009 Champions Trophy. Apart from this, he also played in the 2007 T20 World Semi-Final and 2011 World Cup Semi-Final.
Vettori retired from international cricket after losing to Australia in the 2015 World Cup final. He has also been the coach of the Bangladesh team before Australia. Vettori’s country New Zealand could not do anything in this World Cup and lost in the semi-finals and got out. The Kiwi team finished fourth in the league stage. They faced the number one Indian team.
