All eyes on Sydney on Thursday for this climactic World Cup semifinal match between the Baggy Greens of Australia and India's Men in Blue.
India is the defending champs, having won the previous World Cup on their home soil in 2011. Australia is looking to do the same now.
In terms of picking a favorite, this is as close as two opponents get. India has yet to lose a match throughout this tournament. However, the last time they met Australia in January's Carlton Tri Series, the Aussies dominated them twice.
The winner will face off against New Zealand, who will be looking to win their first-ever World Cup themselves. With no disrespect to the defending champs, an all-host nation final between the Baggy Greens and the Black Caps in Melbourne would be one of the most exciting sporting events in recent memory.
