Pat Cummins has declared Australia's sixth World Cup title "the pinnacle of international cricket" after Travis Head's batting masterclass sealed a six-wicket victory over hosts India in the final.
Chasing 241 for victory in Ahmedabad on Sunday (Monday AEDT), Head hit 137 to take Australia from early trouble to a comfortable win with seven overs to spare.
His runs came as part of a 192-run fourth-wicket stand with Marnus Labuschagne, who struck a controlled 58 off 110 by turning the strike over and letting Head star.
