Australia's champion pedigree faces South Africa's gritty ambition in final
Hindustan Times Patna
|June 11, 2025
When it comes to major cricket finals, Australia are in a league of their own.
LONDON: Only Australia have won all four men's global trophies. They are hard to beat in finals, having won 10 of 13 across the 50-over World Cup, 20-over World Cup, Champions Trophy, and World Test Championship. And let's not get started on the women's team, which is even more dominant.
The men go for world title No. 11 from Wednesday in the WTC final against South Africa at neutral Lord's.
That ruthless focus Australia brings on the biggest stages is in marked contrast to South Africa, a perennial underachiever. The Proteas have won just one major title, the Champions Trophy in 1998, when most of the current Proteas were toddlers.
An experienced squad—average age 29 1/2—compensates with a bond that can't be underestimated, a determination to have each other's backs.
