The ODI World Cup 2023 was hosted in India, and Team India delivered an exceptional performance throughout the tournament, remaining unbeaten until the finals.

However, in the championship match, Rohit Sharma-led India suffered a devastating loss to Australia. This defeat left millions of Indian fans heartbroken, and the disappointment still lingers. Rohit himself was deeply emotional after the loss in the final.

Leading India to victory in 2027 ODI World Cup would present a great redemption opportunity for Rohit Sharma.

Batting first, India was bowled out for 240 runs. Australia successfully chased down the target in just 43 overs, winning the match by 6 wickets.
