We needed Iyer and Rahul to get big runs without Rohit or Kohli before the knockouts. Good partnership. Hopefully they play this way in the knockouts too.

Knockout is about how our bowling unit rips off opposition batting. This time it is going to be that way... Batting first we are confident of this bowling unit defending any total (also batting first comparitely less pressure), batting second we are confident of our bowling unit getting the opposition out cheaply, this is going to be the decisive factor this time! So its all about how opposition handles Indian bowling more than how Indian batting crumbles under knockout pressure, Indian bowling is so hot at the moment!
 
indian batters have strong desire and hunger to score big scores. Something across the bd the batters need to learn From how to bat well and score big scores. It’s madness how our batters such so badly as if they don’t learn watching anything.

Nah, even if we restrict the opposition to say 250, we still need our middle order firing to not have to worry about "what if Rohit and Kohli get out early".
 
If that was rizwan and shaheen thry would have appealed and convince Babar to take review
 
Everyone should just choose Indian 11 for the fantasy competition. What's the point of any other modifications lol?
 
NED - 17/1 (5 overs).

NED are batting better than some Test nations did (against India).
 
I believe Netherlands have better batters than Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Zimbabwe, and Ireland.
 
No swing today for Indian bowlers. Looks like Jay Shah forgot to give that swing wali ball today :cry:
 
A good reality check for the Indian attack. As good as they are, the rivals do not turn up to just bend over.
 
But surely they are probably taking it east. But you can't under estimate anyone.
 
Tema like Ned play pace easily and a bit of swing too because they play in counties. It's spin that bothers them. They don't come across quality spin often. The way forward is for these teams to play domestic cricket in India as a separate team. Alternately, Indian domestic teams can auction like IPL and play one of two foreign players per team.

Why would indian domestics allow the Dutch to play in their domestic league?

This World Cup now has three 400+ scores.

Has been quite high-scoring.

I don't recollect any world cup where teams.scored 400s and sub 100 scores. They defended 230 and almost lost defending 378. The breadth of India tested the skills of all batsmen and bowlers

They should. Afghans requested India but it was rejected. However they were invited to training camps etc. IPL is also an Indian domestic league. The only way to improve for Nepal, Ned, Zim, Sco etc teams is this

CoA rejects proposal allowing Afghanistan cricketers to play domestic matches in India: Report

However, BCCI is open to allowing Afghanistan players to be part of camps and training programs conducted by them.

Yea by the same token I wish Pakistan players were allowed to play domestics in SA and aus, that way we won't get thrashed there every time.

But it won't happen. Domestic first class cricket and list A apart from county is solely for domestic players.

Pak is already a test playing nation. It won't qualify. I'm talking about associates and fringe teams. Even Indian fringe players traveled a lot to Australia through A tours and age group cricket and that's how they learned how to play bounce. Aussies and Poms traveled to India. These associates barely make one decent team. They don't have A, B teams. They need to be invited to play domestics to develop. Or else they will remain on the fringe
 
They are getting bamboozled by Jadeja and Kuldeep as expected
 
Lol sirsj dropped a dolly and pretends to be hurt. Unless he is really hurt I apologise.

Prasidh in then I guess.
 
We need hide Siraj somewhere in ground from the ball. Cant stop and cant hold catches. Might be the weakpoint in sf
 
NED - 90/3 (21 overs).

NED should see off the spinners. They can then reach 250 maybe.
 
Rohit seems to be throwing a lifeline here to Neds
 
Kohli is bowling.

Rohit should bowl too. Why not? He has 8 ODI wickets. Can bowl off-break.
 
Lol..wicket on a horrible ball. Ian Smith was just saying it was inevitable because he's Virat Kohli and there it is
