Australia defeated New Zealand in the final of the ICC T20 World Cup and clinched the trophy for the first time. New Zealand batted first in the match and set a target of 172 runs. Australia achieved the victory target by losing 2 wickets in 18.5 overs thanks to Mitchell Marsh's unbeaten 77. After the victory, a video of the team players has started going viral on social media.
ICC got the new T20 champion on Sunday, November 14. According to media reports, Australia achieved the reign of the shortest format of cricket for the first time. Veteran opener David Warner and all-rounder Mitchell Marsh played a key role in the win. Matthew Wade and Marcus Stoinis played crucial innings against Pak in the semi-finals.
After the win, both the players were seen celebrating in a weird manner. Matthew Wade put a drink in his shoes and drank it, and Stoinis was seen celebrating the victory in the same way. ICC posted a video of such a celebration in the team dressing room on his Twitter handle. The video has been widely watched since it surfaced. People are talking about different kinds of things, but the Kangaroos were so immersed in the victory celebrations that they don't care.
