With India losing the World Cup 2023 finals, it was absolutely heartbreaking moment for every Indian, especially the one lakh 30 thousand people who came dressed in Blue at the Narendra Modi Stadium to support team India in their quest for the ODI World Cup title.

Several social media users called out the crowd's silence in the match, accusing them of disrespecting the Australian team as well as match officials.

Australia skipper Pat Cummins had cleared his objective of 'silencing the crowd' before the World Cup final began. While Cummins and his team succeeded in their plan, the fans at the venue were slammed for their failure to lift the Indian team's spirits at times when Rohit Sharma's men needed them the most.

Some fans even left the game early, realising that the Indian team wasn't going to win the final. Even Cummins said after the match that he was happy to see the crowd being silent.

"It was awesome, I was pretty happy that they (the crowd) were silent for a lot of the bowling innings. A couple of times, they got loud and it was really loud. But fantastic, the passion in India is unrivalled around the world. You look around and it is a pretty special moment, whatever the result happens, we are never going to forget a day like today," Cummins said in the post-match presentation ceremony.
