Emotional Reflections: KL Rahul Opens Up After World Cup 2023 Final Loss to Australia

The Men in Blue lost to the Baggy Greens in the 2023 ODI World Cup final, with Australia securing their sixth World Cup title in the last ten editions. KL Rahul, the wicket-keeping-batter for India, expressed his emotions about the defeat on social media, sharing pictures from the final and saying “still hurts” with a heartbreak emoticon. Despite India’s impressive performance throughout the tournament, including an undefeated run in the group stage and a semifinal win against New Zealand, they fell short in the final, losing by six wickets. Looking ahead, India is set to face Australia in a five-match T20I series.
