MEN’S ODI CRICKET WORLD CUP

2007 Cricket World Cup: Australia complete their title hat-trick

Champions: Australia · Hosts: West Indies

Three titles in a row

Australia won their third successive men’s World Cup in the Caribbean, beating Sri Lanka in the final at Kensington Oval on 28 April. The triumph extended the sequence that began in 1999 and continued in 2003.

Gilchrist takes charge

Adam Gilchrist struck 149 from 104 balls in a final shortened by rain. Australia made 281 for four from 38 overs. Sri Lanka’s revised target was 269 from 36 overs; they finished on 215 for eight, leaving Australia winners by 53 runs under the Duckworth–Lewis method.

A different tournament structure

Sixteen teams began in four groups before the competition moved into a Super Eight stage. Australia progressed through that stage and beat South Africa in the semi-finals. Sri Lanka defeated New Zealand to set up a rematch of the 1996 final, this time with Australia taking the trophy.
