World Cup 2023: 'A chance to erase the pain of 2003', Netizens react to India facing Australia in final

Australia defeated South Africa on Thursday to qualify for the final of the 2023 World Cup scheduled for Sunday in Ahmedabad.

South Africa were 24/4 at one stage, but David Miller (101) and Heinrich Klaasen (47) helped them prevent an embarrassing collapse with a 95-run stand. In reply, David Warner and Travis Head forged a 60-run stand for the opening wicket, but fall of regular wickets meant Australia were restricted to 174/6.
