ODI World Cup: Australia batter Marnus Labuschagne has heaped praise on skipper Pat Cummins for his spell of 2-34 and head coach Andrew McDonald’s influence for propelling the team to 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup triumph with a six-wicket victory in the final over India.

Cummins did not concede a single boundary in the final and returned with figures of 2-34 in the final, taking out Shreyas Iyer and Virat Kohli to keep India to 240. In reply, Travis Head smashed a superb 137 to chase down the total in 43 overs at Ahmedabad on Sunday.

“I think that was certainly Pat’s best day with the ball. I think I’ve never seen someone bowl the sequence he did, bowling the right balls at the right time, that he did. I haven’t seen that from a middle overs bowler, a pace bowler especially in a long time. A lot of credit has to go to him,” said Labuschagne to SEN Radio.
