As India stumbled at the last hurdle, losing to Australia in the World Cup 2023 final, cricket experts summarised the five turning points that took the match away from the Boys in Blue: a) Shubman Gill's failure to fire in the powerplay hurt India's start from which the team struggled to recover. b) The slow middle overs restricted scoring despite Kohli's fifty. c) Holding back Suryakumar Yadav was a surprise. d) Not bowling Siraj early proved costly as he was less effective later. e) After reducing Australia to 47/3, India couldn't capitalize as Head and Labuschagne's 192-run stand swung the match. Had India seized the opportunity and capitalized on Australia's poor start, the final outcome could have been different for Team India.
