Australia beat New Zealand by 8 wickets to win the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2021

[AAli98]

You could buy a trophy and call it the 'Best Team of the T20WC" and present it to yourselves.

When sodhis pies aren’t even working, u know it’s not gonna be ur day. Australia aren’t even in the top 5 in this tournament yet they will win it; joke.

 

[leonidas_alexandar]

Haha I just noticed that six hit the box which read "BCCI OFFICE" and underneath is "ICC OFFICE" lol.

 

[Justcrazy]

kiwis need wickets here , match is slipping away here

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Kane did same mistake as Babar.
Discarded the best bowler after 2 overs.
Should have continued with Boult after wicket taking over.

 

[castortroy]

Even if kiwis got 200, Aussies would be in the driving seat batting second

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Looks like one sided final.

 

[Rajdeep]

Warner has silenced his critics big time here...will now fetch very good money in upcoming IPL auction

 

[Aman]

Hazlewood and Cummins overs are going to be the difference.

Hazlewood MOTM.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Finish it in 17 pls

 

[Saj]

Marsh has been a revelation.

He's been given license to go out there and attack and he's done that so well.

Such clean hitting.

 

[AAli98]

Pak and eng did well to take semis so deep. If pak or eng had batted second, they would of won by 10 or 9 wkts easily.

Only 190 plus gives u a fighting chance batting first. Joke.

 

[castortroy]

Scheduling has been very poor in this world cup

Everyone knew after the warm up games that the games will favour the teams batting second

 

[Devadwal]

I was busy due to marriage in family but look like win the toss and win the match . worst ever WT20 as all match results decided by toss .

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Warner has silenced his critics big time here...will now fetch very good money in upcoming IPL auction

Shame on SRH management and VVS

 

[Space Cat]

Looking all to easy for Aussie here.

NZ really needed more with the bat.

 

[shah_1]

South Africa defended 190 against England. Stop blaming the toss only

Australia is a much superior side and Pakistan being the 2nd best team in the tournament

 

[oatmeal]

Boring game

 

[leonidas_alexandar]

100 up for the Aussies. What a chase this has been so far.

 

[shah_1]

Australia have been so professional

 

[Devadwal]

South Africa defended 190 against England. Stop blaming the toss only

Australia is a much superior side and Pakistan being the 2nd best team in the tournament

You're in delusion like most of Pakistan poster because Pakistan won the most toss .even a blind man can see how important is toss in this world cup .btw England lost due to roy injury in match when he was playing .

 

[castortroy]

100 up for the Aussies. What a chase this has been so far.

You can tell the difference in the quality of the wicket when the team bat's second

 

[Joseph Gomes]

NZ has given up entirely. Australia should not take further risks, just 1 boundary every over will do.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Boring game

Agree

This final is screaming for PAKISTAN !!!!

 

[Aman]

Happy with the team making it this far.

Congrats to the Aussies, they're more than deserving champions.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

What an inning by Marsh.

NZ is getting trashed.

 

[Ahmed216]

Looking all to easy for Aussie here.

NZ really needed more with the bat.

Watching them bowl u'd think they needed 250

 

[Justcrazy]

Australia need 67 runs in 48 balls.

Aussies winning this baring poor batting from here , required rate is under control.

 

[castortroy]

South Africa defended 190 against England. Stop blaming the toss only

Australia is a much superior side and Pakistan being the 2nd best team in the tournament

It was one game and even then England should have chased it. It was also a dead rubber pretty much

Deluded if you think the toss hasn't played a major role

 

[Gilly]

Agree

This final is screaming for PAKISTAN !!!!

The Pak v Aus semi was boring too, a Ind V Eng final would have been the best outcome.

 

[shah_1]

You're in delusion like most of Pakistan poster because Pakistan won the most toss .even a blind man can see how important is toss in this world cup .

lol our bowling was world-class against India and NZ.

 

[oatmeal]

Warner gone. Could this be start of a collapse

 

[Savak]

Lack of quality in the NZ bowling attack showing. Good fielding, team work can only take you so far

 

[Devadwal]

Happy with the team making it this far.

Congrats to the Aussies, they're more than deserving champions.

Nz bogey team is Australia and India bogey team is NZ in ICC tournaments. Here comes big breakthrough for NZ .

 

[oatmeal]

Babar Azam highest scorer of the tournament if I'm not mistaken

 

[Justcrazy]

OUT

warner gone

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

The Pak v Aus semi was boring too, a Ind V Eng final would have been the best outcome.

Except India have been dog**** this tournament lol

 

[Devadwal]

lol our bowling was world-class against India and NZ.

Yes same bowling taking to cleaner when they bowl last

 

[Ahmed216]

You're in delusion like most of Pakistan poster because Pakistan won the most toss .even a blind man can see how important is toss in this world cup .btw England lost due to roy injury in match when he was playing .

I think those 2 balls from shaheen are still haunting you. The effects of shaheen's spell could be seen in game against NZ where Indian batsmen just froze. Clearly they were yet to recover from the hammering

 

[GLORY OF '92]

The Pak v Aus semi was boring too, a Ind V Eng final would have been the best outcome.

Haha wth that was boring are you insane....

 

[Usman Chadda]

NZ seem to have a similar mental block against the Aussies as Pakistan. The only team I have seen smash Australia around like they are nobodies is England, to be fair.

 

[Devadwal]

Still i think this game will going to in final over. Someone from NZ will make this game interesting

 

[Gilly]

Haha wth that was boring are you insane....

Australia won the match at the toss. The match played out like a script.

 

[castortroy]

NZ seem to have a similar mental block against the Aussies as Pakistan. The only team I have seen smash Australia around like they are nobodies is England, to be fair.

Yeah only team that has been hammering the Aussies for the last few years is England

 

[Devadwal]

I think those 2 balls from shaheen are still haunting you. The effects of shaheen's spell could be seen in game against NZ where Indian batsmen just froze. Clearly they were yet to recover from the hammering

Only one win in 13th attempts even a child can win a game against man when they will play against each other 13th times

 

[Joseph Gomes]

NZ seem to have a similar mental block against the Aussies as Pakistan. The only team I have seen smash Australia around like they are nobodies is England, to be fair.

Australia hasn't been the same against Eng in LOIs since the 481

 

[castortroy]

England can match Aussies for firepower which is why they have had the edge over Australia

 

[Asif321]

What a crap final

 

[leonidas_alexandar]

What an awesome fifty by Marsh. Jeez. Cometh the hour, cometh the man.

 

[WhenSultansBowled]

Man I feel so bad for KW. Even after NZ abandoning the tour I wanted him to lift this cup after Pak's exit...

 

[Asif321]

Ban ICC events in UAE. It's totally unfair for bowling 2nd sides

 

[shah_1]

Yes same bowling taking to cleaner when they bowl last

We didn't get enough total after the powerplay. Can never defend 176 here. Scored only 28 runs in from 7th to 11 overs.

We score more than England, and NZ by batting first in the knockouts.

 

[Devadwal]

Marsh is Destroying Nz .look like Australia are hurry to finish this match

 

[castortroy]

If any of the semi finalists had won the toss twice they would have also lifted the cup.

Dreadful wc for me

 

[Devadwal]

Ban ICC events in UAE. It's totally unfair for bowling 2nd sides

Totally agree . NEVER EVER HELD ANY ICC TOURNAMENT IN UAE .

 

[Ashmal]

Looking all to easy for Aussie here.

NZ really needed more with the bat.

That Guptill innings was criminal

 

[castortroy]

Totally agree . NEVER EVER HELD ANY ICC TOURNAMENT IN UAE .

Unless they are all day games, you can't host events in the UAE

 

[leonidas_alexandar]

That Guptill innings was criminal

Absolutely sunk New Zealand single handedly.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

That Guptill innings was criminal

Replica of Babar innings

 

[Thephenom]

I’ve liked Australia’s approach hitting the 1st ball of a over for a boundary, putting the pressure on the bowling side

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Harsha is too erudite for T20 cricket - or any cricket at all. Time to give the reins to someone else.

 

[leonidas_alexandar]

The most winningest ICC trophy winners - Australia - is soon going to breach the T20 doors to announce their arrival.

 

[WhenSultansBowled]

Lol at some people in this thread.

Credit to the Champions.

They played brave cricket and won against Pak / NZ. Until 19th over Pak were still in the game, kind of.

Also, NZ shouldn't have played so many dot balls.

I know it hurts to admit but Australia played better cricket than NZ, Pak, Eng and certainly India.

 

[Mainul]

Guptil and Philips are two man of the match. They decided the final.

 

[Corridor of Uncertainty]

Batting second. End of.

Also shows Pakistani bowling is superior to NZ in these conditions

 

[castortroy]

You guys do know Australia would have chased down 195 also

 

[leonidas_alexandar]

Finally a voice of reason and sanity amidst the filth. Aussies played like champions once the knockouts arrived. Yes they had a tough one against Pakistan but that's what champion teams do.

 

[Mainul]

57 in first 10 overs!!!!
Are you crazy? You still hope to win against Australia???

 

[leonidas_alexandar]

This is turning out to be one of the most one sided finals ever - that too in a T20 where one sided wins are quite rare given the shortness of the format.

 

[Ashmal]

I think those 2 balls from shaheen are still haunting you. The effects of shaheen's spell could be seen in game against NZ where Indian batsmen just froze. Clearly they were yet to recover from the hammering

True...it haunted India so much that they had to hide Rohit from new ball and disturbed their whole batting order

 

[castortroy]

This has been an absolute hammering

 

[Justcrazy]

Australia need 25 runs in 27 balls.


Aussies finally winners

 

[sweep_shot]

Australia are almost home (predictably).

25 runs are needed from 26 balls.

 

[Joseph Gomes]

New Zealand team has overachieved to the maximum. There's barely 3-4 good players in the team, the bowling is shockingly awful apart from Boult.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

England Australia final would have been much better. NZ useless with their timid approuch.

 

[RamLakhan]

Can pink ball in T20s do any favor to bowling 2nd sides?

 

[Mainul]

NZ seem to have a similar mental block against the Aussies as Pakistan. The only team I have seen smash Australia around like they are nobodies is England, to be fair.

I agree. NZ most of the time gets smashed by the Aussies, so does Pakistan .

 

[Pollack]

Even 190 would've been chased easily.

 

[Gilly]

Australia haven't won yet.

 

[Ashmal]

Replica of Babar innings

Babar atleast thrashed India....Guptill was horrible throughout the WC

 

[leonidas_alexandar]

What an innings by Marsh though - this is the modern way to bat in T20's. His first two scoring shots were a six and a four in a big World Cup final in a big chase. The sub-continent players would have preferred to "construct" a solid innings first.
