India vs Australia, World Cup Final: Ahead of the high-octane encounter between India and Australia in the ODI World Cup 2023 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, the Indian Air Force's (IAF) Suryakiran team staged a spectacular airshow on Sunday.

It was a breathtaking view to see the flypast from Suryakiran's aerobatic team while in the stands it was a sea of blue. The world's largest cricket stadium with a sitting capacity of over one lakh people is painted in blue to support the home side.

After the toss, the Suryakiran team stole the show with their various formations above the Narendra Modi Stadium.

The biggest occasion in the cricketing event. We have to stay nice and calm. It's a dream come true to be captaining the team in the final. I know what lies in front of us. We need to play well and get the result. You got to make the right decisions on the field. That's something we've done consistently in the last 10 games. We are playing the same team," he said.
