Australians have emerged as the Champions of World Cup 2015. They have grumbled New Zealand by 7 wickets in the final match held at Melbourne today. Having won the toss, New Zealand chose to bat first. However, they lost three quick wickets in mandatory power play itself. Elliott ( 83 off 82) and Taylor ( 40 off 72) tried to repair the innings with a partnership of 111 runs in 137 balls. From then on, again there was a continual fall of wickets which ultimately restricted New Zealand just to 183 runs. 

On their way of chasing the target of 184, Aussies made no fuss at any interval of time. They were as cool as a cucumber in chasing the target and stand as the synonym for real champions. Captain of the team, Michael Clarke, who is playing his last One Day International has made an emotional 74 out of 72. Smith with 56 and Warner with 45 contributed their part well.
