India (176/7) crowned champions of ICC T20 World Cup 2024 after a 7 runs victory against South Africa (169/8)

[RedwoodOriginal]

This batting from Stubbs and de Kock has left India a bit shell-shocked. They did not expect South Africa to attack their spinners this way

 

[jnaveen1980]

225 pitch this is.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

@Dhakar Pola Vs @Devadwal

Ha ha ha..my team is not even playing and I am trying to cheer him up to not lose hope

 

[Croma]

Required RR has fallen below 10

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Stubbs throws his wicket away

 

[PakFan2010]

Kohli's legacy for India is on the line.

 

[JaDed]

Yesss Axarreerrrre out yay, buoyyy having a game today

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Time to stub out Stubbs ....cmon boyzzz....focuzzzzz...

Yeaaaaaaaaa.....Akshar ....yeaaaazazz

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Massive wicket

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rohit helped INdia get to 205. Even that didn't seem enough at one point

 

[rhony]

Need a wicket soon

 

[Red-Indian]

YES!

 

[leonidas_alexandar]

Stubbs gives a beautiful gift to India. Completely against the run of play.

 

[Buffet]

This batting from Stubbs and de Kock has left India a bit shell-shocked. They did not expect South Africa to attack their spinners this way

There is no other option. It's flat pitch and did not get enough runs against pacers.

 

[oatmeal]

Too little, too late?

 

[Statpadder Inc]

Axar bhai clutches it for us again

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Stubbs gone

 

[Croma]

Axarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr takes down STubbs!

 

[sweep_shot]

Axar gets Stubbs.

70/3.

 

[OldWarHorse]

Need De Kock to throw his away now

 

[Devadwal]

Now South Africa will by 7 wickets .

Rain is coming they are ahead is DLS

 

[rhony]

Wooo. BOWLED HIM!! Not a good shot by Stubbs. It was threatening for India and he played a stupid shot

 

[jnaveen1980]

They were trying to use the wind as much as possible. Both batsmen.

 

[BaaliSoda]

Much needed-break from Axar.

 

[JaDed]

Stubbs gives a beautiful gift to India. Completely against the run of play.

Would tske it we gave them 3 gifts today.. not including the run out

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Joke shot

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Poor batting from Stubbs. Gifted his wicket to Axar who had basically started darting it in.

He was moving around in his crease too much too.

 

[Ahmed216]

Great strike. Stubbs was threatening to take the game away from India. Now Saffers need another partnership

 

[Dhakar Pola]

There you go, wicket..it's SA my Indian friends. It's not Australia. Relax

 

[rhony]

Now South Africa will by 7 wickets .

Rain is coming they are ahead is DLS

There is a reserve day. They will continue

 

[jnaveen1980]

Wooo. BOWLED HIM!! Not a good shot by Stubbs. It was threatening for India and he played a stupid shot

Not a stupid shot. He has been taking that chance from the get go targeting into the wind.

 

[oatmeal]

Its all on Pandya after Kuldeep failed

 

[Croma]

9: 71-3

 

[sindhiboy]

lol, misses a straight one

 

[Sycamore]

That's amateurish from stubbs

 

[Thephenom]

What a stupid, stupid, stupid, shot by Stubbs, just guaranteed himself another highly paid IPL Contract!

 

[RidiculousMan]

Did Stubbs threw the World Cup away?

 

[JaDed]

Rohit needs to get DeKock now..

 

[Statpadder Inc]

it's SA my Indian friends. It's not Australia.

This is the only ray of hope I am hanging on

 

[Croma]

South Africa need 106 runs in 66 balls.

Looks tough for Saffer with Bumrah's two overs to go

 

[chinaman00]

Did Stubbs threw the World Cup away?

Brainless shot. Ruined the perfect partnership.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Its all on Pandya after Kuldeep failed

Relax m8....he'll be back....& He'll fire...

 

[globetrotter]

India needs 2 quick wickets

 

[Croma]

Hardik's crucial overs is here

 

[Devadwal]

There is a reserve day. They will continue

Not there is already 10 over done so DLS will applied

 

[JaDed]

Cmon Hardik get us a lucky wicktt er

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

There is no other option. It's flat pitch and did not get enough runs against pacers.

Varying your pace can be effective for pacers here. South Africa were bowling too full and with too much pace on the ball

 

[GLORY OF '92]

India big favs now

 

[Statpadder Inc]

What a stupid, stupid, stupid, shot by Stubbs, just guaranteed himself another highly paid IPL Contract!

Pakistani players do the same thing despite no hope of getting an IPL Contract

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

If I make a congratulations India thread will it be deleted?

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Geez....Carlos Braithwaite is better playing than commentating ....even speaking seems an effort

 

[Croma]

2 dot balls to Klaase.. Oh the pressure!

 

[Devadwal]

Hardik to get phainti.

 

[globetrotter]

QDK’s reaction after Stubbs wicket shows hez feeling pressure. QDK’s wkt is coming

 

[jnaveen1980]

Hopefully pitch becomes tacky after 10 overs.

 

[JaDed]

How did Rabadda get smacked here?

 

[oatmeal]

That sky wicket forced India to take a defensive approach. Indefensible by him on such a big stage

 

[Croma]

3 dots.... stressful

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

C'mon Harry...3 dots ..yeaaa

 

[GLORY OF '92]

How did Rabadda get smacked here?

He's medicore in white ball cricket

 

[oatmeal]

Shows how Maharaj's wickets were really fluky

 

[Croma]

6666666666666666666666666666666

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Geez klaasen ...what an awesome 6

 

[JaDed]

Lol smacked for a six

 

[jnaveen1980]

What a rubbish wide freebie.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

My personal dislike for Hardik has lessened in this world cup. Guy is a fighter. He is the unsung hero for India in this world cup

 

[rhony]

Spoiled a nice over with a short and wide

 

[JaDed]

He's medicore in white ball cricket

Bowled well throughout the tournament

 

[Croma]

99 off 61 to win

 

[NeVerMind]

3 dots.... stressful

And then a big 6!

 

[jnaveen1980]

why is he leaving the stumps

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bumrah 2 overs is key from here on.

 

[JaDed]

No ball cmon Hardik focus on the plan

 

[Devadwal]

South Africa to win by 7 wickets

 

[Croma]

No ball from Hardik... Is he losing it?

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Klaasen has to ensure that he plays the remaining overs by the spinners.

 

[oatmeal]

No ball is inexcusable

 

[Asif321]

Horrific shot by stubbs

 

[sweep_shot]

No-ball.

 

[Devadwal]

Free hit.

2016 all over .
