Chasing a 444-run target, India resumed at their overnight score of 164/3 on Day 5 but things quickly went downside for them.
No batter managed to score even a fifty in the 2nd innings as India was bowled out for 234. Virat Kohli top-scored with 49.
While India last won an ICC title way back in 2013, when they won the Champions Trophy under MS Dhoni, the Aussies won their maiden WTC title to take ICC title count to 9.

Team India still need 119 runs to avoid the follow-on against Australia with 5 wickets in hand

Team India was pushed towards the wall on Day 2 of the WTC final at the Oval as Australia is in command of the ultimate Test.
Indian bowlers helped the subcontinental giants fight back on Day 2 as Australia lost 8 wickets for just 108 runs and were all out for 469. Mohammed Siraj the chief destroyer with 4 scalps.
India began strongly in reply as Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill put together a 30-run stand, before both openers were dismissed in consecutive overs.
Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli also went back cheaply as India found themselves wanting at 71/4.
Ravindra Jadeja and Ajinkya Rahane tried to steady the ship with a 71-run stand but Nathan Lyon got rid of a well-set Jadeja for 48 in his second over.
Rahane returned unbeaten on 29 as India ended Day 2 at 151/5, still trailing Australia by a mammoth 318 runs.

The opening day of the World Test Championship (WTC) final may have begun on a great note for India but Australia made sure they ended Day 1 in command.

It was all Australia from there on. Travis Head tamed Team India with a counter-attacking 146 not out to put his side back on track. He became the third cricketer to hit a ton in the WTC final.
Steve Smith proved to be a willing ally as he too scored an unbeaten 95. A stand of 251 between the two helped Australia end Day 1 at 327/3.

WTC Final: Virat Kohli among Team India players leaving for England on Tuesday morning

The first batch of Indian players & support staff members, including Virat Kohli & Rahul Dravid, will leave for the UK in the early hours on Tuesday.

#WTCFinal #ViratKohli

Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, Ishan Kishan, Shubman Gill, Mohammad Shami, K S Bharat, and Ajinkya Rahane will stay back in India for the IPL playoffs.

Virat Kohli, along with teammate Mohammad Siraj, will depart for the highly anticipated World Test Championship (WTC) final against Australia in London in the early hours on Tuesday.
The departure comes shortly after their team, Royal Challengers Bangalore, was knocked out of the IPL. Joining them on the flight will be spinners R Ashwin and Axar Patel, all-rounder Shardul Thakur, and the team's support staff led by Rahul Dravid.
Completing the first group of players are Kolkata Knight Riders' pacer Umesh Yadav and Lucknow Super Giants' Jaydev Unadkat, who is recovering from a shoulder injury.
According to a BCCI source, there will be two or three batches of departures, with the first group leaving at 4:30 am on Tuesday. The remaining seven players, including skipper Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, Ishan Kishan, Shubman Gill, Mohammad Shami, K S Bharat, and Ajinkya Rahane, will stay back in India for the IPL playoffs.
Cheteshwar Pujara is already in England playing county cricket and will join the squad in London. However, there will be no warm-up game for the Indian team since the English County Championship is underway, and the ECB is not obliged to arrange practice matches for the visiting team due to it being an ICC event.
A BCCI source mentioned that playing against a select county XI wouldn't provide quality practice as it would primarily consist of second-team or development squad players, as the first-team players are not released during the championship.
While the majority of the Indian players will enter the title clash after two months of IPL, only three Australians bound for the WTC final participated in the league. Last week, Ricky Ponting commented on the mental preparedness of the Australian team, stating that they haven't been playing much cricket but might be mentally better prepared, while Indian players have valuable game time behind them.
India, who were runners-up in 2021, will be eager to claim their first ICC trophy in a decade. The World Test Championship final begins on June 7.

<h2>KL Rahul has confirmed that after consultation with the BCCI medical team, he has decided to undergo a surgery that will keep him out of action for weeks</h2>

Indian batter and LSG captain KL Rahul confirmed that he will undergo surgery on his thigh and as a result, will miss the World Test Championship Final.
While speculations were already rife that Rahul would miss the one-off Test in England against the Aussies, the 31-year-old confirmed the development through a social media post on Friday afternoon.
Rahul wrote: 'After careful consideration and consultation with the medical team, it's been concluded that I'll be undergoing a surgery on my thigh shortly. My focus will be on my rehabilitation and recovery in the coming weeks. It's a tough call to make, but I know it's the right one to ensure a full recovery.
As the team captain, it pains me deeply not to be able to be there during this crucial period. But, I'm confident that the boys will rise to the occasion and give their best performance as always. I'll be cheering for them from the sidelines with all of you, watching every game.
Absolutely gutted that I won't be at the Oval next month with Team India. I'll do everything I can to get back in blue and help my country. That has always been my focus and priority. @indiancricketteam
I want to express gratitude to each one of you - my fans, that gave me the strength to get back up, the LSG management and the
BCCI for their promptness, and my teammates for their unwavering support during this difficult time.
Your encouragement and messages mean a lot to me and motivate me to come back stronger and fitter than ever before.
Meanwhile, I promise to keep you all updated on my progress, and hope to be back on the field sooner than soon. The last few days have been really hard, but I'm determined to come out on top.
Injuries are never easy, but I'll give it my all as always. Thank you for all the support and good wishes.'

Shreyas Iyer to undergo surgery, set to miss IPL & WTC Final: Reports

In what can be a major blow to Team India and to the Kolkata Knight Riders, Shreyas Iyer is likely to undergo surgery for his back injury.

Here are the details

Shreyas Iyer is expected to have his surgery either in London or somewhere in India under the strict guidance of the BCCI

In what can be a major blow to Team India and to the Kolkata Knight Riders, Shreyas Iyer is likely to undergo surgery for his back injury.
According to a report in the Times of India, the middle order batter is expected to have his surgery either in London or somewhere in India under the strict guidance of the BCCI.
The report further stated that Iyer is expected to be out of action for at least 5 months after his surgery, which effectively rules him out of IPL 2023 and the World Test Championship final in June.
It will be tough for him to find a spot in the 2023 ODI World Cup in October, as well as Team India, is unlikely to consider the batter without playing him in the build-up to the tournament.

The 4-match Test series may have ended but India and Australia will resume rivalry in June for the ultimate Test of them all when the two sides face each other in the World Test Championship final in London.
'It's going to be great coming up against India in the final, at the Oval. The wicket there can take some spin at times, particularly as the game wears on. So could be interesting in terms of what what sort of wicket we get. But it's a great place to play cricket. There's usually reasonable bounce and pace for an English wicket. It's probably as close as you get to Australia potentially in terms of pace and bounce,' added Smith.

The Aussies finished at the top of the table, which according to coach Andrew McDonald, is very impressive.
'If you look at what we embarked upon at the start of Pakistan, into Sri Lanka and into India, we set that as three series in the subcontinent and we come away from that with three wins, three losses and three draws. And that's a pretty tough World Test championship cycle. So to finish on top of the table with that on the calendar is pretty impressive. And it's the world's number-one team still. So we're pretty proud of what the group's been able to achieve. However, in saying that we didn't achieve what we wanted to here,' McDonald said.

'Speaking of playing them in the finals, it's going to be a different ball game. You know, again, a neutral venue for both the teams. Both the teams have played a lot of cricket in that part of the world. So I wouldn't say it's going to be alien conditions for both teams. But yes, compared to what it is like playing in India for India or playing for Australia in Australia, it's not going to be like that. It's going to be slightly different from that, which I'm pretty sure both teams will prepare for it. You know, whatever time we get after IPL, we will try and find some time and get ready for that.' added Rohit.

The premier Indian fast bowler will miss the full season of IPL as well as the World Test Championship final if India qualify for the match that starts on June 7.

According to a PTI report, Bumrah will at least be out of action for another six months.&nbsp;
