Commentary

This brings us to the end of our coverage for this match. This is me (Arya Sekhar Chakraborty) signing off also on behalf of my fellow mate Arya Sekhar Chakraborty and Rajarshi Das.

Yuvraj Singh: It changed when we were playing golf. Four of us got fifties. On this wicket getting 250 was special. This Man of the Match should go to bowlers. Australia have won world cups and to beat them. I know that you always wanted India Pakistan final. I took my time, I knew it was a mattar of two hits. It's been great year for India. It will be a jam packed Stadium

Brett Lee (Australia captain): We played brilliant throughout the tournament but we faltered today. We didn't do our job today and scoring 250 was just too much. It's been a wonderful tournament. Some sore bodies but surely some great memories

India Champions won by 86 runs

Robin Uthappa 65(35) | Pawan Negi 2/35
Tim Paine 40*(32) | Peter Siddle 4/57(4)

Before the start of this championship, India Champions were the first team slated to qualify for the final but having seen how they performed in the last two games, not may would have given them a chance and even going into the final. However they have done something really special to have qualified for the semi final with matches to spare.

Pakistan have been the team to beat in this competition but it didn't look like India Champions were prepared. However they have really peaked at the right time and facing Pakistan at this stage of the tournament should bring out the best among both sides. Now coming to this match, the India Champions were always going to fall behind.

However the performance of the India Champions was much better from what they did in the previous games. The target of 255 was never going to be a realistic one for Australia and despite some big blows it was always going to be a similar task. Nonetheless India will face Pakistan in the finals which will be played later today.

19.6 Dhawal Kulkarni to Tim Paine, SIX to finish, but it's the India Champions who claim the contest and will meet the Pakistan Champions in the final! Slot delivery, pitched up on off stump. Paine moves across, gets right under it and thumps the ball down the ground, hitting the sightscreen. India Champions win by 86 runs!

19.5 Dhawal Kulkarni to Tim Paine, yorker around off, dug out towards long on. Paine wants to face the last ball of the match as well...

19.4 Dhawal Kulkarni to Tim Paine, skied... and safe! On a length outside off, Paine looked to hoick this over mid wicket, got nothing but height on this one. Couple of runs as mid wicket runs in and returns

19.3 Dhawal Kulkarni to Tim Paine, full outside off, Paine digs this one out towards long on. The batters refrain from running again

19.2 Dhawal Kulkarni to Peter Siddle, on a length outside off, Siddle makes room to try and thump this over the off side, scuffs it up towards mid off. Just one

19.1 Dhawal Kulkarni to Tim Paine, slow, short of length outside off, Paine smashes this towards deep mid wicket without meeting it right. Just a single as the fielder in the deep tidies up

18.5 Vinay Kumar to Peter Siddle, length outside off, Siddle stands tall and drives this to the right of Harbhajan at sweeper cover. The batters collect a brace

18.4 Vinay Kumar to Tim Paine, on a length wide of off, clubbed towards the man at long off for a single

18.3 Vinay Kumar to Tim Paine, on a length outside off, Paine slashes this one straight to the man at cover

18.2 Vinay Kumar to Tim Paine, SIX! Slot ball, on a back of length on off stump, Paine moved across and jabbed this over the square leg region. Clears the boundary by yards

18.1 Vinay Kumar to Tim Paine, edged? The umpire doesn't think so. Slower ball, pitched up outside off, Paine looked to slice it past cover, as it turns out, he hit the ground hard instead

18.1 Vinay Kumar to Tim Paine, wide, full, well outside the tramline even though Paine moved across his stumps trying to ramp
