Smith hits the winning runs, Australia win the Cricket World Cup

Quite a comfortable win in the end, quality bowling capped off with quality batting

Clarke bows out of ODI cricket as a champion, well deserved!

Haha if the saffas want to make a World Cup final, playing better at crucial moments would possibly help them. They didn't even perform very well at the tournament overall. India, New Zealand and Australia were the best teams throughout the tournament. Australia beat the other two convincingly when it counted. Sounds fair to me! Hehehehe

Kiwis choked hard, mcallum brain snaps to open n literally come out swinging was the beginning of the end!!! As for South Africa, never seen a good team like they have had over the years choke consistently in world cups!!! Australia thrive in these situations

McCullum didnt have a brain snap. Thats his role and how he plays. Its either a quick 60/70 runs or out early. He played that way the whole tournament.

Well done to the aussies. Played extremely well and were always going to be tough to beat at home in front of 80,000 fans.

hmm starting off winning 3 world cups in a row, pause in 2011 and then winning back in 2015 in one of the most boring games of the entire worldcup.

Yep Aussies being too good is making the game really boring.

On behalf of Australia. .. I am sorry.

Next time, Steve Smith will have to bat left handed and Mitchell Starc will bowl wearing clown shoes just to make it interesting :grinning:

it was 4 years since they had won the ashes so there was a bit of a break. Considering they are going to play england for the rest of the year after the west indies they will be winning allot

It didnt matter if it were the first game of the world cup, or the final, he was always going to do it. Thats his style and it worked for every other game so it definitely wasnt a brain snap. Maybe you shouldve watched more games instead of just the final before commenting.
