India (171/7) hand a crushing defeat to England (103) by 68 runs to secure their spot in the finals of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024

How far England have come. I remember not too long ago they were opening their T20 lineup with Alastair Cook.
 
IN IPL Punjab had some good hitters lower down the order. Were they like hacks or really good? I dont remember their names....
Ashutosh Sharma and Shawshank Singh.

They will never get a chance. They are nobodies and lack backing from big name players in India.

If Abhisek Sharma, Samson, Jaiswal can’t get a game after all the hard work they have done, those nobodies have no chance.

BCCI is all about brand name and big name players. They do t care if they win tournaments or not. Any win is a bonus.
 
This is more like the Guyana pitch where SKY smashed 88 off 44 in a chase and they chased down a similar score to this in 18 overs. Happened last year
 
He has looked like a deer caught in the headlights all tournament. Sometimes its actually better to drop someone rather than hoping that they will magically start performing after constant failures
It'll be a miracle if he gets out from this. Should have had dropped him 2-3 matches for his own sake.
 
Myth. Scores of 165 have been chased in 17.5 overs in the past.

165 was bare minimum and we got there. But 190 would have been relatively safe. Good bowling can defend that.
Highest chase at this ground in T20Is is 164.

This would be a record chase. Unlike 2022 you have Bumrah and Kuldeep. Congratulations to India in advance.

Or the thakur guy would have been better lmao.
Hahah cmon Thakur is like the quintessential bits and pieces player. I would have liked Abhishek Sharma in there. He's fearless and has some intent

Kohli should be pushed back to middle order and open with Rohit and Jaiswal.

But Dravid and Rohit can’t make bold decisions. They don’t want to hurt Kohli’s ego.
 
BUmrah gets under pressure if you hit him.

rarely happens thouhg, but today Butler and Salt may go after him
I think he follows the plan to the the best, which causes issues he needs to sometimes just not listen to the management but thats not how our bowlers play..
 
England's Liam Livingstone:

'We've got a lot of firepower in dressing room'

"He [Buttler] brought me on to try and get a wicket... I didn't quite do that but thankfully it came out alright today.

"It's keeping very low out there... we've seen what it plays like and hopefully we can adjust to that.

"We've got a lot of firepower in the dressing room so fingers crossed we can get that total."
 
Asian teams only stick to by the book. By the law, tested templated format. So they will start pace.
Not at the beginning. I was thinking of middle overs.
No pandya , only 12vovers of spin in the middle Jaddu,Patel and Kuldeep. Bumrah and Arshdeep at the beginning and later part

Venkatesh Iyer is a much better batsman than spin basher Dube. He is also a big match player like he has shown in ipl knockout games for KKR.

Thakur is done. So no point going back to him.
 
If England doesn't get a good start in power play,it will be very difficult to get back into the game
 
India always play well in the group stages and don't want to change the winning combination.

But in the knockouts the weak links cost them the game
Which is stupid considering we wont ODI 2011 wc by make sure we changed based on the game.
 
Handy boundaries these. E gland needs to score big in power plays to give themselves a chance. There's a ball with your wicket right around the corner

Congratulations to England and English fans, the game is lost.
English batsmen are settled and will chase it in 17 overs
 
slight pressure and Indians choke like always.
Pathetic team, worse than Pakistan team.
Atleast those guys don’t choke, they infight with each other and lose.
