And that's a wrap on today's thrilling game! The excitement continues in the World Championship of Legends with a match on Thursday, July 24, between England Champions and South Africa Champions at 3.30 pm GMT. Join us early for pre-match hype and analysis as we count down to the game. Until then, take care, and cheers!

Chris Gayle, the skipper of the West Indies Champions, says that they were very much short and the Australian Champions batted really well. He adds that this competition is really entertaining and ends by saying that they will look to bounce back.

Presentations coming up...
Earlier in the game, West Indies Champions posted 142, with Dwayne Bravo and Lendl Simmons playing crucial roles in the lower order. They struggled initially, losing 5 wickets for 75 runs, but Bravo and Simmons' 40-run partnership helped them recover. Peter Siddle and Nathan Coulter-Nile were outstanding bowlers for Australia, restricting West Indies to a manageable total.
On the flip side, West Indies Champions struggled to find their footing in the game. Although they managed to take the wicket of Shaun Marsh, they were unable to capitalize on that momentum. None of the bowlers ended up with an economy rate under 10, which clearly reflects their lackluster performance. They did manage to dismiss Chris Lynn, who had been putting on an impressive show with his powerful strikes, but by then, it was simply too late. In the end, Nikita Miller and Ashley Nurse each grabbed a wicket, but it was too late to turn the tide.
A convincing victory for the Australian Champions! What a thrilling display of cricket! Australia Champions pursued their target with remarkable ease. Despite losing one of their opening batters in the 3rd over, Chris Lynn teamed up with D'Arcy Short to create an explosive partnership, adding an impressive 77 runs in just 28 balls. A special shoutout to Lynn for his phenomenal performance, single-handedly scoring 81 runs and putting on a masterclass in batting. Once he was out, Dunk delivered a swift cameo to seal the victory.
