Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer were removed for ducks when India and Australia met in their opening clash, which feels like a distant memory following game after game of utterly devastating batsmanship. Was it a one-off, opening night nerves, or do Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc have an edge on the Indian top order?
Though he doesn't get the same adulation as Virat Kohli, KL Rahul was instrumental in digging India out of that particular hole. And while Mohammed Shami has been so destructive with the ball that he's even managed to eclipse Jasprit Bumrah, it was the spin of Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav that tore through the Aussie order.
Both teams have played – and won – at Narendra Modi Stadium before, but Australia's victory wasn't soundtracked by 132,000 India fans. The stage is set for the hosts' coronation, though sporting law dictates that the only unbeaten team in the competition should brace themselves for a late twist.
Ready for a gripping final showdown? Here's where to watch India vs Australia live streams and how to watch ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 from anywhere.

How to watch India vs Australia cricket live streams from anywhere
A VPN, or virtual private network, makes it look as if you're surfing the web from your home country, rather than the one you're in. That means you can access the streaming services you already pay for, from anywhere on Earth. Or anywhere that has an internet connection, at least.
VPNs are totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. We've tested lots of the best VPN services and our favorite is ExpressVPN. It's fast, works on loads of devices, and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view an Australian service, such as 9Now, you'd select 'Australia' from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action and watch the India vs Australia live stream.
