India were bowled out for the first time in the World Cup 2023 as they posted 240 in their 50 overs during the final in Ahmedabad. KL Rahul and Virat Kohli hit fifties but the Australian bowlers were on the money.

Australia needs 241 to win

A terrific bowling performance by Australians, led by Pat Cummins 2/34. India started well scoring 80 in the powerplay. But slow and low pitch made sure batters had to dig deep. Virat Kohli (54) and KL Rahul (67) kept the scoreboard ticking. But once those two got out, it was Australia all over.

A total of nine Hawk Mk-132 SKAT aircrafts of the IAF created history as it is for the first time that they produced an aerial show ahead of any cricket match in India and it is only fitting that their maiden show took place before a World Cup final.

The Surya Kiran team pilots, a part of the 52nd Squadron of the Indian Air Force, produced a 10-minute show before the toss at the Narendra Modi Stadium, which has a capacity of more than 1,30,000.

Usually composed of 13 pilots, the ‘ambassador of Indian Air Force’ SKAT team has only nine of them performing at any given time in their Hawk advanced trainer jets.
