Australia has added another ICC title to their cabinet! They are the new World T20 champions. The Men in Yellow defeated New Zealand by eight wickets in the T20 World Cup 2021.
Chasing 173, Australia lost captain Aaron Finch early, Warner and Marsh kept attacking and scored 43 runs inside the powerplay. The duo continued to play aggressively in the middle overs and didn't let any New Zealand bowler settle.
Warner smashed 53 off 38 balls with the help of four fours and three sixes before Trent Boult cleaned him up. However, the lefty opener had already set up the game with a 92-run stand partnership with Marsh in 59 balls.
Marsh continued to hit good shots and was joined in by Glenn Maxwell. They made sure Australia didn't lose any wicket and hit the remaining 66 runs in the next 39 balls.
Australia became the fourth team to win all three ICC titles in white-ball cricket – 50-over World Cup, 20-Over World Cup, and Champions Trophy.
