T20 World Cup 2021 Final Highlights: Australia beat New Zealand by 8 wickets in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2021 final at Dubai International Stadium on November 14, 2021. This is the first time Australia has won a T20 World Cup Trophy.
Australia was deemed as the underdogs at the start of the T20 World Cup 2021 but the team put up an exemplary performance in the knockout stage and pulled an upset over Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2021 semifinals to meet New Zealand in the T20 World Cup 2021 finals.
Australia powered by two smashing half centuries by David Warner and Mitchel Marsh and power hitting boundaries towards the end by Glen Maxwell chased down the 173-run target, which was the highest so far in a Men's T20 World Cup Final.
