India Retain T20 World Cup | Indian Bowling Attack Too Good | Healy Sent Off In Dominant Win

Michael Clarke and Gerard Middleton are joined by special guest Dan Christian on this episode of Beyond23, as they break down a massive week of cricket headlined by the T20 World Cup Final, Australia’s emotional farewell to Alyssa Healy, and a Sheffield Shield race that’s heating up.

The discussion begins with the T20 World Cup Final, where India capped off a dominant tournament by defeating New Zealand to claim the title. While much of the spotlight often falls on India’s star batters, it was their world-class bowling attack that controlled the final, squeezing the Black Caps and proving the difference on the biggest stage. Michael, Gerard and Dan analyse how India’s bowlers set the tone, and why their depth with the ball ultimately decided the championship.

The panel also highlights the performances that may have flown slightly under the radar, including key contributions from Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan, whose roles in the final helped build the platform for India’s victory.

The conversation then shifts to the Australian women’s team, who delivered an emotional send-off for Alyssa Healy with a memorable Test victory over India. The guys reflect on Healy’s incredible career, her impact on Australian cricket, and what her legacy means for the next generation of players.

Finally, the focus turns back to the domestic game as the Sheffield Shield season heats up, with finals spots on the line and several players pushing their case for higher honours. Michael, Gerard and Dan break down the key storylines, standout performers and what to watch for as the competition heads toward the business end of the season.
