ICC World Cup 2023: Australia (215/7) defeat South Africa (212 all out) by 3 wickets to reach the finals of ICC World Cup 2023

[Sunzi]

Honestly. Shamsi. I can't keep saying it.

Bowl outside offf

And again

 

[AAli98]

lol..India got the same pitch in 1996 semi..cant belive Azhar chose to field first that day

I rekon Kambli would have got close to the target had Indian fans not burnt there seats & caused riots !

 

[Sunzi]

Got him.

LBW. Maybe too much turn. Has the umpire's call though.

 

[sweep_shot]

Need 2 in quick time.

Their wicket keeper has a kitten batting average, tail starts from him.

Maxwell? Stoinis?

Quite a bit of batting left.

Also, Aussie tail is quite capable with the bat. Cummins and Starc can hang around.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Solid shot by Marnus. Averaging 48 and striking at 87 since bilateral series in SA. And everyone wanted him dropped.

 

[Asif321]

Finally !

 

[Ali Active]

gone

 

[jnaveen1980]

Deserves that wicket. poor guy

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Labuschange reviews but that's plumb

 

[karthikc]

I rekon Kambli would have got close to the target had Indian fans not burnt there seats & caused riots !

Lol no way..it was turning square

 

[Asif321]

It might miss leg hope not

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Damn. Is that out?

 

[sweep_shot]

I rekon Kambli would have got close to the target had Indian fans not burnt there seats & caused riots !

Will we see something similar (burning seats and riot) if Aussies beat India in final?

 

[sweep_shot]

Gone.

Labu is out.

133/4.

 

[Rana]

Come on then SA

Here’s your chance

 

[Ali Active]

previous lbw was more out than this one

 

[Asif321]

Thank goodness . It’s time to choke them . Wrong shot selection

 

[kingusama92]

South Africa are still in this. Wow.

 

[Sunzi]

Game on.

Shamsi. Please yaar. You know what I'm gonna say.

 

[Devadwal]

Match is already done . Bavuma has lost it

 

[jnaveen1980]

SA has a golden chance now. Come on SA make history !!!

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Game on.

Shamsi. Please yaar. You know what I'm gonna say.

Bowl on the legs?

 

[Sunzi]

Beauty first up.

Get Maxwell and the rest are surely not playing this

 

[GLORY OF '92]

SA has a golden chance now. Come on SA make history !!!

4 wickets needed Australia still favs

 

[Asif321]

Dammmmm 150/7 comon

 

[sweep_shot]

Maxi is at the crease.

Aussies can win this with singles and doubles. Just see off the spinners and they should win comfortably.

 

[Suleiman]

Maxwell? Stoinis?

Quite a bit of batting left.

Also, Aussie tail is quite capable with the bat. Cummins and Starc can hang around.

stoinis isn’t playing today. Just need Maxwell or Smith now.. that’s why I said 2 more.

Tail isn’t doing anything on this day 5 pitch.

 

[Asif321]

Sa needs wickets now can’t let it keep to pacers comon SA

 

[jnaveen1980]

Maxie is clueless agianst wrist spin generally. On a turning track even more clueless. He will play some blind shots. If he is lucky he will get away

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Australia not looking comfortable at all against these spinners

 

[Sunzi]

Bavuma you let the country down.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Maxi and Inglis before 150 will make this match slightly interesting.

 

[Rana]

60 balls of threatening spin

6 wickets needed

 

[jnaveen1980]

They should get Maxie face as much as possible early on. He will play some funky shot. You will get your chance

 

[Sunzi]

Maxwell gone!?

Reviewed.

 

[Asif321]

Oh my is it out hope so

 

[Sunzi]

Clear daylight. Survives

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Maxwell might be in trouble here, some game this is

 

[FearlessRoar]

Australia in trouble.... Labuschagne departs

 

[Champ_Pal]

If Maxwell goes, its all over for Aus.

 

[jnaveen1980]

60 balls of threatening spin

6 wickets needed

Just 2 good balls enough against these guys.

 

[kingusama92]

Geez what a game

 

[Asif321]

This is nervy

 

[Sunzi]

Come on Shamsi.

 

[Asif321]

Maharaj has 5 left

 

[Champ_Pal]

Maxwell is the key. He is the best player of Spin for Aus.

 

[Rana]

Just 2 good balls enough against these guys.

Aussies will fight right to the wire

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is a fantastic match compared to yesterday

 

[Suleiman]

Smith will be the key. Maxwell is a hack on any pitch with movement.

 

[Asif321]

10 more overs of quality spin

 

[sweep_shot]

AUS - 134/4 (23 overs).

Maharaj and Shamsi have 10 overs left (combined).

 

[Rana]

What a match!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Aussies will fight right to the wire

Fighting against pressure is one thing. Fighting against technical challenge is another thing. Maxwell had zero challenge against Afghanistan. Ball not turning. nicely coming on there.

 

[Devadwal]

This is a fantastic match compared to yesterday

Yea but dropped catches and poor Captioncy cost South Africa here

 

[AAli98]

Come on Aus don’t want these chokers in a one sided final

 

[Devadwal]

Bring back rabada for 2 over spell.

 

[jnaveen1980]

There is a reason why INdia has a wood over Australia in Test matches. They literally choke them like this so many times. I think all those horror moments are flaring up now.

 

[sweep_shot]

Why did Aussies select Josh Inglis? Should've gone with Carey or Wade.

 

[Sunzi]

Maxwell bowled.

 

[Rana]

Shahid Maxwell

 

[Asif321]

Comonnnnn n

 

[globetrotter]

Maxwell gone…

 

[kingusama92]

No way this is crazy

 

[sachin-10dulkar]

Shamsiiiiiiii

 

[Sunzi]

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Maxwell gone, SA will win it from here

 

[emranabbas]

Shamzi going crazy

 

[jnaveen1980]

Maxwell exactly the same way got bowled by Kuldeep

 

[sweep_shot]

Shamsi gets Maxi.

137/5.

 

[7sins]

Game on

 

[Suleiman]

5fer for brother In Sha Allah

 

[Nikhil_cric]

ProteaFire!!!!

 

[Rana]

What a legend Maxi

Boom Boom ki yaad dila Dy aaj

 

[Champ_Pal]

Really poor from Maxwell. Terrible swipe across the line.

 

[dravidthewall]

Lol shamsi what a celebration

 

[RamLakhan]

Game will go deep but Australia will win it eventually!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Get smithy here game over. Nobody else can survive against these bowlers.

 

[sachin-10dulkar]

Clutch Cummins need to step up now

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Smith, Cummins and Inglis are still left.

Just 80 more to get

 

[Firebat]

Shamsi!! love it
