Australia deserved to win: Brendon
McCullum guided his side to the first World Cup final where they suffered a seven wicket victory in the hands of Australia.
After the match, McCullum said: "It's been one hell of a ride for us, right the way through, we played some outstanding cricket."
"We ran into an outstanding team in Australia, they continue to set the standard. Michael Clarke bows out on a high note, they deserved to win," he said.
Australia won the World Cup for the fifth time.
