India will be playing in the final after twelve long years and after twenty even years the Men in Blue will face the Australians again.
New Delhi: The stage is set for an epic ICC World Cup final between India and Australia as the Men in Blue aim to win their third World Cup crown, with the Aussies eyeing the action at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday.
According to a report by Sports Tak, all ICC World Cup winning captains will receive a special blazer ahead of the big match. The winning skippers are Kapil Dev, Ricky Ponting, Clive Llyod, Allan Border, Arjuna Ranatunga, Steve Waugh, MS Dhoni, Michael Clarke and Eoin Morgan.
Only 1992 World Cup captain Imran Khan will not attend the event as Pakistan’s former prime minister is currently serving time behind bars.
At the same time, all the above captains will be honored in front of a large crowd of over 1 lakh.
