The stage is set for what is expected to be a cracking grand finale of the World Cup 2023 as India take on Australia at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Australia are the most successful team in the 50-over World Cup history as they have lifted the title five times so far, while India have won the summit clash two times - 1983 and 2011. 

India though have dominated this World Cup and are unbeaten in on their way to the final. India's pace attack has played a huge role in this dominance, with Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah taking 22 and 18 wickets, respectively. Shami has grabbed most of the attention and rightly so, as he is the leading wicket-taker, but Bumrah too has been brilliant and has provided breakthroughs at crucial junctures.

So, ahead of the big final, let's see Jasprit Bumrah's ODI record against the mighty Aussies.

Jasprit Bumrah has played 20 matches against Australia in his 88-match ODI career and has picked 28 wickets. His average is slightly on the higher side with 35.03 and has the economy rate of 5.28. His strike rate is 39.07 and the man was the pick of the Indian pacers when they played against Australia in the league stage.

Bumrah too two wickets in the game while giving away just 35 runs in his 10 overs and he will be key asset for India with his ability to deliver both with the new ball and at the death. Also, when India last played at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Jasprit Bumrah bowled beautifully and picked two wickets to restrict Pakistan to a low total.

The Narendra Modi Stadium at Ahmedabad is also his home ground as he plays domestic cricket for Gujarat, so expect India's gun-pacer to deliver big time in the final.
