- India falter with bat after blistering Rohit start
- Bumrah has Australia rattled before Head hundred heroics
- 'Head is a legend' | 'India not good enough' - what the captains said
Travis Head struck a magnificent, match-winning hundred as Australia claimed a record-extending sixth men’s Cricket World Cup title, breaking Indian hearts with a six-wicket win over the tournament hosts in the final in Ahmedabad.
Head's superb 137, off 120 deliveries, helped rescue Australia from 47-3 early on in their chase of 241 to win as he became only the sixth player to score a century in a men's World Cup final, following in the footsteps of Sir Clive Lloyd (1975), Sir Viv Richards (1979), Aravinda de Silva (1996), Ricky Ponting (2003), Adam Gilchrist (2007) and Mahela Jayawardene (2011).

Image: Pat Cummins lifts the Cricket World Cup trophy aloft as Australia celebrate their six-wicket win over India in the final
Earlier, KL Rahul (66 off 107) top-scored for India, while Virat Kohli (54 off 63) chipped in with a half century but the innings lost its way after a blistering, boundary-laden 31-ball cameo from skipper Rohit Sharma (47) at the top of the order.
Rohit cracked three sixes to go with four boundaries as 80 runs were reaped from the opening 10-over powerplay after India were put into bat by Australia - Kohli too contributing four fours in that period.

Travis Head produced an incredible catch over his shoulder to remove India captain Rohit Sharma in the Cricket World Cup final
Early in Australia's reply, Bumrah's double-wicket opening burst, along with Shami's first-ball dismissal of Warner, appeared to swing the game firmly back in India's favour.

Mohammed Shami takes David Warner out early with his second ball in the final
Each breakthrough was greeted by deafening celebrations inside the stadium, but all had an element of good fortune about them. Shami and Bumrah, who each beat the edge with regularity in supremely skilful spells of fast bowling, actually claimed the wickets of Warner and Marsh, respectively, to a couple of short, wide long-hops.
As for Smith, he'll have been hugely frustrated with himself for failing to review his lbw decision in the eighth over, the ball shown on replay to have struck him outside the line.
In the end, it mattered not. Head, who struggled against the seamers early on, just about survived the opening bursts of Bumrah and Shami, then got his eye in against the ineffective spinners - Kuldeep Yadav (0-56) and Jadeja (0-43) both held wicketless - and cruised to a magnificent fifth ODI century.
Australia captain Pat Cummins:
"You have to be brave to win a World Cup. You can't wait for it to happen. You have to be brave and take the game on.
"We saved our best for last. The players stood up and were are pretty chuffed. This is a year we will remember for a long, long time.
"My heart was fluttering [at 47-3] but Marnus (Labuschagne) had a cool head straightaway and Trav [Head] did what he does.
"He is really brave, takes the game on, puts the pressure back on the bowlers, and to do it on the biggest stage shows a lot of character.
"I couldn't be happier for Trav. He is a legend."
