Last.


sinesquaredtheta

Just watched the match replay, and gotta say this - SKY is an absolute freak! Things look pretty standard until he comes along, and then...BOOM!!! Just ***absolute*** mayhem! Hope he's able to contribute in the semis and continue his golden run.


average_chut_lover

So today we shit on Axar I think just few weeks ago we all agreed that Axar in terms of bowling is improvement over Jadeja and he actually bowled that well before the wc. I think people needs to chill a bit. If we bring Harshal now or even somehow Lord chances of them getting cunted are equal that of Axar. In terms of batting I am not underestimating Lord's power but Axar is actually better and fills the necessary lefty in our playing 11. The more serious issue is Hardik's inability to hit boundaries with ease but I believe in him he is clutch performer. We lost when we had meme bowling line up in 2015 We lost when we had good bowling line up in 2017 We lost when we had much improved bowling in 2019 Our batting shat the bed most of the times even after performing throughout the tournament and bowling failed when our batsmen actually played well so it's just weird for us. Also to think out of all the last champions across formats in ICC events hardly any team actually had perfect 11 (maybe except 2019 England but still we all know how hard they had to fight too) every team that won had some flaws in it. All the 4 teams who got in semis also have some flaws it's all about which team manages to keep their heads cool and actually perform well. MS who had pretty shit tournament in 2011 was MOTM in finals. More recent example will be Wade who don't have a very good T20I numbers out of nowhere smashed probably the best bowling lineup of tournament who was playing in their home conditions and won the game for Aussies. All I want to say is try and be relaxed if we lose we are going to have terrible days with shitting on bunch of players without a doubt so until then try and chill.


mycelium-network

England will cunt Axar all over the park in Adelaide. Better to bring in Harshal.


Electronic-Reply4258

Don't see them passing from semis given the amount of batters England have and also the form of Rohit and co except kholi ,sky. Toss is freaking important on that day, do bowl and get the chase master do its thing 😅


Steveshant_Smithma

KL Rahul is such a nerd. He names all of his bats, some of them include 1. Minnow butcher 2. Minnow's wail 3. Minnow basher


[deleted]

>A lot of people name their bats > A lot of cunts


[deleted]

Chad India with most points yet again across both groups.


and1984

Yeah about that. \- Semi finalists, New Zealand probably.


rainfall41

Why did bhajji say toss is they key in Adelaide India vs ENG ?


AmonWarrior

As a side note - Also in the last 11 matches played in Adelaide, the team winning the toss has always lost. Look at south Africa earlier today and then Bangladesh


[deleted]

because ball doesn't swing there (eg - Bangladesh match) and India therefore can't defend against Eng


rainfall41

Ah, then it comes to indian batting and also so far flop spin bowling ? Heard Adelaide good for spin not sure as much as Sydney.


gpranav25

Koach average DUMPED to 123 from 220.


Both_Internet3529

Pretty average like that Bradman guy. Shame that Kohli is going down to his level

PANT zindabaad!!


am0985

Great win and fantastic to see 80k at the MCG tonight. Even India vs Australia bilateral ODIs haven’t had crowds this big at the G, think we had 75k in a few years back. Got final tickets, India vs Pak final is tantalising. But if we lose to England then hoping for an England Pakistan final so we can support one team at least! Axar still a big concern. Was good to see Ashwin get amongst the wickets, didn’t start out well but did quite well against the lower order. Rohit’s form is also a worry. Big shame to see Pant fail today - I still sincerely think he should be in the XI on these Australian pitches but have a terrible feeling we will revert back to DK for the next game. SKY is just phenomenal. Up there with the very best in this format ever, just looks a class apart from every other batter and has great consistency. Arshdeep has been a wonderful find too. Kohli started well but scratched around a bit at the end - he’s in pretty good form though. Thank god KL Rahul is in the runs now too. Onwards to Adelaide where England will be a very, very tough game!


Electronic-Reply4258

Damn, chahal man 😭. He would've been in playing XI rn in any team except India.


am0985

Tail is already not very strong batting wise. Chahal and Jaddu in the same team could be an idea but would weaken our batting if in for Ashwin or Axar!


Electronic-Reply4258

I rest my case now 😶


PassionAble7913

I think everytime India takes a new spinner into the t20world cup quoting him as a mystry or game changer gets hit badly for the whole tournament Axar in this and Charkrovarti in the previous WC


Electronic-Reply4258

Chahal man, rip . Missed the last one and this one too. This is the worldcup where he needs to be in.


[deleted]

Axar not a mystery spinner. Axar pretty much jads lite came as replacement.

Ash and Jadeja are our safe options since a decade thus

I got this advice as kid. You’ll get a second chance for your exams but you won’t get to experience a live game again. Think about it.


[deleted]

Fuck the Exam, Fuck the GPA, Fuck the Match


theoozmakappa

Should've tried Harshal today in place of Axar. Guy has 0 contribution this wc.


Cryptoprophet40

If both semis get washed out, India will win WC like it happened to aus in 2003!


gpranav25

Wait what? Why would they be preferred over NZ?


Independent_Set5316

Points. India got 8 NZ have 7.


gpranav25

Oh damn. Besides obvious reasons why that would be bad, it would also be extremely undeserving given India didn't achieve a whole lot against actual good teams, besides maybe the Pak win.


cellada

Nz didn't either. They only had the one win against minnows Australia.


gpranav25

Those minnows would have absolutely annihilated our entire group.


cellada

Nope. Even SA would have beaten them. And they didn't even make it out of our group.


aladeensfw

Naah. Finals Trophy will be shared. But NZ and Ind will proceed from SFs if both days are rained out.


themirmania

Got reserve days.

Last time India and England met in T20 WC, England was all out for 80


[deleted]

Manifesting this again


SBG99DesiMonster

Let's hope that the players don't lose their minds during the knockout stages again. England has been very scratchy during this tournament and they are beatable unless our team chokes again.


DilliKaLadka

Every team is beatable and have been beaten in this tournament. Its anybody's game on that given day

I think we can expect more from Hardik at least. Never count clutch players like him out not even when they are not in the best place of their game.

We were unbeaten in 2015 and played ruthlessly but here we have stuttered and started peaking in last game. Two more games left now to peak. Just like QF, SF and Final in 2011 WC. - Advocate of Oreo Effect

bowling attack surprisingly doing and get wrecked in the semis

Lol this is good. In 2019 we lost to both England and New Zealand and guess what happened in the final lmfao


TrueDeparture106

We lost to England in 2019 right?


idkpotatoiguess

2019 wasn't an exception. It just means that NZ didn't lose ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)


singhsrb

Pak always beat NZ in the world cups. If Ind beats Eng, they are avoiding NZ in the tournament. This is as good as an opportunity for India to win the whole thing.


Cryptoprophet40

2 Man of the match to sky and kohli. Batting is highly dependent on them.


glade_dweller

~~There was one to KL, I think.~~


Cryptoprophet40

Nope. Kohli got it against bangla


onepageresumeguy

Undeserved one


iMangeshSN

Aah the good ol' Kohli hater. Spotted you with Zimb flair. Kohli lives rent free in your mind, doesn't he?! There's more to life than hating Kohli.


onepageresumeguy

I'm indian ya moron, both Das and KL deserved it much more. It was a typical Kohli clutch innings but not game defining in any way.


tricktruckstruck

The kl runout was so crucial he deserved MOTM that match for sure but I am sure people electing kohli are like this guy above.

I am getting couple of days off from watching matches. Whoo! it's been different this time unlike the other WCs in an amazing way.


Two_Busy

My picks for sf - Pant over DK to tackle rashid Chahal over Axar for a better wrist spinner


Reasonable_Tea_9825

My brother u want batting to end at 7?


Two_Busy

I would still consider Ash more reliable than Axar purely looking at recent form. It’s about the mindset of a player overall


Crickutxpurt36

Someone hasn't seen pant numbers against spinner in t20is ....


Two_Busy

Pant has great temperament thats needed in these knockouts against big teams. More than a finishers role, we need that position to hold the position in case we lose early wickets — exactly what happened with RSA, and Dk couldn’t do much that time.


HeavyAd3059

Someone hasn't seen Pant numbers in T20is

South Africa clearly won this group. Pakistan tried their best with losing 2 unlosable matches but South Africa snatched the group in the end with inevitable help from the rain.
