The World Cup 15 finally ended with the Australia winning the World Cup
The Australian team played extremely well in winning the 5th edition of the world cup. The team had an all round effort for the win like the contribution from Clarke, Smith & Warner was impressive in the batting. Faulkner was the man who took 2 wicket maiden which turned the game. In bowling Johnson & Faulkner were impressive. The Australian bowled out the Kiwi's at 183 runs in the 46th overs. They took dangerous man Brendon McCullum out in the first over itself. They took 3 wickets in the mandatory powerplay. So it was a very good performance lastly.
The Kiwi's played extremely well. Though they tried to play well and win the first ever Cup for the team they couldn't complete the dream. The Kiwi's lost their captain in the very first over and repeatedly lost wickets in quick succession. So it was difficult for them to make a good score. Ross Taylor & Grant Elliot made a good partnership but was broken soon. Later wickets fall and finally they were bowled out for 183. In bowling they removed Finch early but the. They couldn't win. They tried their best to achieve the world cup but anyways they lost the game.
Man of the match was James Faulkner for his 3 wickets.
