The third Rugby League World Cup was held in Great Britain in 1960. The same format as used in 1957 was used, with a group stage leading to a final table. No World Cup Final was held, but by chance the final match of the series saw Great Britain take on Australia at Odsal Stadium, Bradford. As both teams were undefeated this match became a virtual World Cup Final. Great Britain ran out the winners in front of a crowd of 32,733.
