India have been on a roll in this World Cup, winning ten consecutive matches to secure a place in the final. While the leading run-scorer (Virat Kohli) and the wicket-taker (Mohammed Shami) are on their side in the buildup to the ultimate showdown, a resurgent Australia pose a massive threat to their chances of becoming champions.
The hosts will look to avenge the loss of the 2003 final when a 121-ball 140 from Ricky Ponting poured water on their hopes.
World Cup 2023 final, IND vs AUS weather: What is the weather forecast before the game in Motera, Ahmedabad?
According to Weather.com, there is no looming rain threat during the World Cup 2023 final, with clear and bright skies. The mercury will rise to a warm 32-degree Celsius in the afternoon before reducing to a comfortable 28-degree Celcius around dusk and dropping further as the match progresses. The humidity will hover between 33 and 60 per cent during the game.
AccuWeather’s forecast also firmly rules out any chances of precipitation with “plenty of sunshine” during the day.
BBC Weather also predicts pleasant conditions for the summit clash as its predictor reads a zero per cent chance of rain, as well, with temperature supposed to range between 25 and 32 degrees Celcius.
All in all, the rain gods have decided not to intervene in what promises to be an all-time classic final between India and Australia. While unbeaten India have toppled Australia at the group stage, Australia, who have roared to the final on the back of eight wins on the trot, including a tense semi-final victory against South Africa, are a much sterner test now than they were at the start of the competition.
