Mumbai: Australia reaffirmed their status as the undisputed champions in world cricket by breaking the Champions Trophy jinx with an emphatic eight-wicket victory over title holders West Indies in a rain-marred summit showdown here.

The Australians skittled out the Caribbeans for a paltry 138 in just 30.4 overs before overhauling the revised target of 116 with 6.5 overs to spare to clinch the only silverware that had eluded them till now.

The world champions gave an awesome exhibition of their skills as they exploited the difficult track at the Brabourne stadium to the hilt to shatter the Caribbean hopes of retaining the title in a low-scoring floodlit tussle.
