ICC World Cup 2023: India v Australia | Final | Ahmedabad | 19 November | India innings

[shah_1]

Rohit alag hi mood mei hai


Incredible and brave batting by him

 

[MP2011]

Another 6 by Rohit

 

[JAV12341]

Rohit destroying this attack

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Kuptaan Sharmaji, sirf aap se umeed hai.

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

RoHIT not giving up !

 

[Asad T]

good to see rohit not slowing down despite losing his opening partner

 

[kingusama92]

Rohit still a beast out there. Respect.

 

[viking2559]

@viking2559 think we need start looking for that tv remote to turn this off

Lol the way Rohit Sharma is playing. We have to do it soon.

 

[Rana]

I would have bowled Cummins now.

Hazlewood is struggling to bowl to Sharma here

 

[MP2011]

Rohit gotta stay here for at least 30 overs.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Sit back and relax. SHarma g going big here.

 

[JAV12341]

Game over Rohit with his blitz has won India the world cup

 

[kron]

This is the last recognised pair. Don't have any expectations from Iyer and others in a big match like this.

And when has virat stepped up in a big match? Since 2011?
Last semi was the only one.

 

[160KPH]

They need to keep Kohli on strike as much as possible for the Hazlewood overs. Rohit is picking him but Hazlewood’s record against Kohli is great.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Kohli will struggle if the pitch is slow.

Current version of Sharma in ODIs is the only comparable to Viv Richards. Hitting fast bowlers for big sixes.

 

[BaaliSoda]

Ashwin would have been great here instead of that spraygun Siraj

Exactly, Mate!

That’s my feel even before today’s toss (Siraj is just not been good in any of the three facets of the game and been a major weak link in our attack).

 

[Swashbuckler]

What kind of a wicket is this for the final? Ball is barely carrying for 140+ KPH pace bowlers.

Same pitch as India-Pakistan match.

 

[globetrotter]

Aussie pacers swinging ball means Indian pacers will swing more….. anything above 230 is a good score… Aussie batting will crumble under pressure

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

And when has virat stepped up in a big match? Since 2011?
Last semi was the only one.

That's why have history of loosing KO games because Virat didn't fire.

 

[kron]

Really dubious decision to bowl first by Cummins

Maybe the first game influenced the decision?

Also seeing how kiwis chased last game? Wasn't close in the end but there was a probability of chasing.

 

[160KPH]

Same pitch as India-Pakistan match.

It’s a different pitch. Ravi spoke about it in the pre match report.

 

[Sunzi]

Kohli in great touch.

 

[160KPH]

2 more wickets needed in the powerplay

 

[BouncerGuy]

3 off 3. superb kohli

 

[Rana]

Kohli wow

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

good going so far...but feel another wicket in PP and this couuld become nasty...
hope our guys play the ball onmerits.

 

[viking2559]

Australia bik gayi hai.
Just awful..

 

[JattMaula]

Good intent by former Kaptaan.

 

[Suleiman]

Stupid TV signal went out. Did Rohit hit a satellite?

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Where are the Indian fans who were justifying Aussies decision to bowl first?

Can't believe I'm witnessing a mockery of the gentleman's game in a world cup final

 

[BaaliSoda]

Faster the ball bowled easier it is bat on here.

Cutters is the way to go for fast bowlers on this track.

 

[Mainul]

Seems very fishy to me. Australia didn't bat first. Even Heyden , their Aussie senior recommend batting first. India is winning the trophy-confirmed.

 

[JAV12341]

India will hammer a big score this match is done these 2 will smash centuries

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Everyone knows why they did that.why even play. Just hand the trophy to them without playing.

It's just for the show bro. Need to sell tickets so people can watch this nautanki.

 

[viking2559]

Seems very fishy to me. Australia didn't bat first. Even Heyden , their Aussie senior recommend batting first. India is winning the trophy-confirmed.

BCCICC influence here.
Not surprising though.

 

[Sunzi]

Maxwell to two right-handers!?!

 

[Mas-LFC]

Why would you win toss and bowl first? Bad decision from Aus.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

I feel if we make it out of the PP with no further damages, dang the score whatever it is , we are on target...
the real test will be Zampa and head on this slow low bounce wicket

 

[Mas-LFC]

Maxwell to two right-handers!?!

Aussies are playing into India hands. Bowling first on a slow pitch, now right armer into two right handers inside 10ov.

 

[kron]

India will hammer a big score this match is done these 2 will smash centuries

Your man bumrah? Can he handle the pressure though?

 

[sachin-10dulkar]

Why would you win toss and bowl first? Bad decision from Aus.

Maybe coz teams have won previous finals by batting second.

 

[Sunzi]

Aus gonna be chasing a big big score here.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Maybe coz teams have won previous finals by batting second.

Yeah sure. Cummins influenced by decisions made in finals which happened in different countries 4-8 years ago

Great logic

 

[Devadwal]

Rohit be carefull as cumming will bowl slow bouncer

 

[hur rizvi]

This is just India's big occasion. Easy win coming up

 

[nosundries]

I don’t know if people are serious when they question Australia’s decision to bowl first.
The only team that has not won at this ground chasing in this World Cup have been England who have had a terrible World Cup. Secondly, gone are those days when it was mandatory to bat in big knockout games. Teams nowadays have the confidence of chasing any total. Thirdly, with dew in the evening the ball will come easily on the bat.

It’s advantage Australia here. The runs that are being scored on this slow pitch where ball is not coming properly on the bat is because two of the arguably the top 5 ever white ball batsman are out in the middle.

 

[JAV12341]

Your man bumrah? Can he handle the pressure though?

Bumrah is going to rip out the top order or as usual bowl a devastating economical spell

 

[Mas-LFC]

Maybe coz teams have won previous finals by batting second.

That was 8 years ago on a batting wicket chasing a low score in 2015. In 2007 cwc final Aus batted first, in 2003 cwc final Aus batted first and batted India out of the game.

 

[MP2011]

Lol, not even 10 overs have been bowled and sooks have started sooking

 

[JAV12341]

if these 2 stay for longer could see India smash 400 runs

 

[Devadwal]

Rohit gone

 

[Afhan Ali]

Wow Aussies

 

[Sunzi]

Sharma goes. Fantastic catch.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

What an inning by Rohit

 

[Rana]

Omg what a catch

Game wide open

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Omg what a catch

 

[JattMaula]

Excellent catch!

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

What a catch by Travis Head

 

[160KPH]

Travis Head is the biggest big game player I have ever seen in my life

 

[BaaliSoda]

Request to fellow Indian posters.

Avoid responding to click bait posts with wild conspiracy theories and accusations.

Just enjoy the game

Rohit is gone.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

ohhh...nooo Rohit...what have you done...just needed to see out the PP....
Now this site will come alive....

 

[Suleiman]

Maxwell coming up when Aus needs him most this tournament. Can’t believe that paid off

 

[Afhan Ali]

Why Aussies are so strong mentally

 

[Marooned]

Why would you win toss and bowl first? Bad decision from Aus.

Bank balance

 

[kingusama92]

Oh my god what a catch.

That's as clutch as it gets.

 

[Rana]

Respect Rohit

This is how you bat against a strong opponent

 

[Ali Active]

what a catch

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

First powerplay in favour of Australia. India under pressure now.

 

[MP2011]

So what will sooks say now after seeing that catch from Head?

Really deplorable behaviour

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Travis Head - AB Devilliers with a moustache @Ab Fan

 

[kingusama92]

Truly insane from Head. My goodness.

 

[Ab Fan]

This is why Indians fear Australia, especially the 90s kids

 

[Suleiman]

Why Aussies are so strong mentally

Their whole sports culture from school to college and beyond is very tough. Just like in the US, sport is a proper career path and treated professionally from the very start.

 

[JAV12341]

What a superb innings by the hitman. Blitz the aussie attack. Brilliant knock

 

[Devadwal]

220 all out is coming . congratulations Australia

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Awesome catch by Head...that guy is one dude who has exponentially improved over the last few years...kudos to Aus to keep investing in him, he is just another MVP

 

[Maliq_Mudasir]

Respect Rohit

This is how you bat against a strong opponent

Deserves Man of the Tournament

 

[Mas-LFC]

What a catch! Massive wicket. India needed Rohit to bat another 10overs. Now it’s going to be rebuilding for while. Defo has reduced total by 20-30runs

 

[Suleiman]

Travis Head got that David Boon swag now.

 

[rhony]

Great innings by Rohit. All India needs is 5 to 6 rpo from here on as they did all world cup
