"It was a pretty clinical run chase. They have got the best chaser in the history of the game. Virat Kohli. And around Kohli, they have so much talent all the way through. Spin bowling all rounders. Guys that go hard at the ball in the power play. A wicket-keeping batter in KL Rahul. That’s magnificent and an all-rounder in Hardik Pandya makes things easy," said Nasser Hussain while talking on Sky Sports Cricket. 

Indian players were seen elated after knocking out Australia from the tournament. Australia played with some new players who failed to perform and hence, were knocked out. Moreover, India will be happy to play in the fourth ICC tournament finals in the last two years. 

India are going to win: S. Sreesanth

The player is super confident that India will be winning the finals in the upcoming finals, regardless of who plays against them. The Indian team has done well in the tournament and the same will be expected from them in the finals as well. 

"Doesn't matter who the opponents are in the final, India are going to win. There is so much positive energy. They are playing some wonderful cricket. The way Virat Kohli anchored the chase, the way Shreyas Iyer has stepped up - let's just keep our fingers crossed," said S. Sreesanth.
