Contributions from David Warner (53), Mitchell Marsh (77*) and Glenn Maxwell (28*) powered Australia to their maiden T20 World Cup title with a convincing eight-wicket win over Trans-Tasman rivals New Zealand in the final of the 2021 T20 World Cup in Dubai on Sunday.

For New Zealand, it was another defeat in an ICC final after having lost the 2019 ODI World Cup final to England. The Kiwis, thereby, lost the opportunity to add to the ICC World Test Championship title, which they had won in June after beating India.

Australia won the toss and opted to field, and while Josh Hazlewood picked three wickets, Kane Williamson's 48-ball knock of 85 led New Zealand to 172/4.

In reply, David Warner and Mitchell Marsh made light work of the chase, while Glenn Maxwell also made crucial contributions with the bat.

Trent Boult picked two wickets but Australia completed the chase with seven balls and eight wickets to spare.
