Why today's cricket World Cup final will get all sports fans hooked — how to watch

Virat Kohli of India plays a shot against Australia at the ICC World Cup 2023.

Today's India vs Australia ICC World Cup cricket final is set to showcase the best that the sport has to offer. Whatever your preconceptions of cricket – slow, unfathomable, boring – take the time to watch the match at the world's largest stadium, the 132,000-strong Narendra Modi in Gujarat, packed to the rafters with India cricket fans willing their team to victory in their home world cup, and I'll bet you change your mind.

This is one-day, 50-over cricket and it includes aspects often absent in those more condensed versions of the game – Twenty20 and T10, which are often cited as the gateway by which newcomers to the game can be attracted to cricket.
