After delivering stellar performances in the semi-finals, both teams have earned their spot in the pinnacle match of the tournament.

Under the captaincy of Pat Cummins, Australia secured a hard-fought victory against South Africa, winning by three wickets in the gripping semi-final held in Kolkata.
