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

[jnaveen1980]

How irresponsible of Pandya to bowl short and wide ball and a noball.

 

[Croma]

South Africa need 96 runs in 60 balls.

WHat a match!

 

[jnaveen1980]

These guys can score 96 in 6 overs. They are that good.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Kuldeep can still wrap this up quickly.

 

[rhony]

Except.for that short and wide, decent over by Pandya. His short of a length bowling will.suit this pitch

 

[Croma]

SPinner will be murdered.. Very risky to bowl spinners against these two.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

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

On cue...
On loop ..
Rinse, repeat...spin cycle
Cntrl C cntrl v...
So if Aus wanted IPL contracts - why did they win WTC 2023 & ODI WC 2023 from us ,???

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 81/3 (10 overs).

Drinks break.

SA need 96 to win from 10 overs.

 

[RidiculousMan]

These guys can score 96 in 6 overs. They are that good.

They have to be top of their game to chase from here.

 

[JaDed]

We have runs to defend hopefully disciplined bowling and Rohit’s plans help

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

pitch looks absolute belter. Bumrah’s 2 will decide it eventually

 

[Croma]

Kuldeep can still wrap this up quickly.

He is uner pressure. Not sure if he handles it well.

 

[oatmeal]

70-30 in favour of SA right now

 

[Dhakar Pola]

96 of 10 overs with 2 overs from bumrah remaining..no way in any miracle SA is doing this..unless India has a major brainfart or bumrah is injured regulation cricket will it it from here for India

 

[Red-Indian]

One thing's great here. Neither side can be accused of choking. They're both giving their best.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Brainless shot. Ruined the perfect partnership.

I have observed this in almost all Finals. Someone does have a brainfade

 

[Buffet]

10 runs per over ceratainly gettable on this flat pitch. Just need to play well.

 

[rhony]

10 overs 96 to.win. I think it's 60-40 favoring India. Bumrah has 2 overs. Not sure if Jadeja will bowl but SA will look to.make up.for Bumrah's overs in Hardik/Jadeja overs

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Klaasen will have to let loose against the spinners. Its a WC final....you don't want to the rate get to 9-10 in the last 5 overs. And there are two Bumrah overs remaining too.

 

[Statpadder Inc]

70-30 in the Saffers favour

 

[sweep_shot]

10 runs per over ceratainly gettable on this flat pitch. Just need to play well.

If these two are there for 5 more overs, SA should win.

 

[RidiculousMan]

96 of 10 overs with 2 overs from bumrah remaining..no way in any miracle SA is doing this..unless India has a major brainfart or bumrah is injured regulation cricket will it it from here for India

In my opinion. This match is 55-45 in India's favor right now.

 

[MP2011]

Need more from Bumrah and Kuldeep's remaining 2 overs.

 

[Sycamore]

SA will never get a better chance to win a WC. The flattest pitch, needing 95 runs. Will go down to the wire. Let's see if IPL stints will pay off

 

[oatmeal]

This has been the anti choke tournament for SA. I reckon they will take it.

They were in very bad positions against Ban, Netherlands and Nepal and won all three games. The windies game was tricky too

 

[rhony]

I have observed this in almost all Finals. Someone does have a brainfade

Young and cocky. He was batting like a dream and thought he was invincible. Good ball by Axar too when he noticed Stubbs far outside

 

[Dhakar Pola]

These guys can score 96 in 6 overs. They are that good.

With world cup final pressure? This saffar could not do it with IPL final pressure forget the world cup

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Saffers need a special innings from someone

 

[Croma]

OMG! Jadeja....

 

[JaDed]

The pitch might actually suit jadeja

 

[rhony]

Great final so.far for everyone asking for a tight contest.

 

[Buffet]

Cracking final so far. Both teams giving it all.

 

[Devadwal]

De kock is winning the game for South Africa

 

[Croma]

QDK should take Jadeja on

 

[Deewana Mastana]

QDK nearly gave his wicket away

 

[Dhakar Pola]

QDK nearly gave his wicket away

Trying to choke hard

 

[DeadlyVenom]

This is tense even for a neutral.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

C'mon get at least one of this 2 guys ...cmon boyzzz c'mon jadzzzz

 

[JaDed]

Cmon Jaddu not the ball to bowl

 

[jnaveen1980]

Another loser Jaddu finally will sign off with a loss.

 

[rhony]

Axar should have gone for the catch there. Australians would have. Key key wicket

 

[RidiculousMan]

Nobody in the world hits spinner straight over so effortlessly as Klassen

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Trying to choke hard

Where you from Polay

 

[oatmeal]

Italy on the verge of being knocked out of Euros too

 

[Statpadder Inc]

Sir jadeja will choke again

 

[DeadlyVenom]

How can we keep track of the DLS score?

I think Saffers must be ahead.

 

[JaDed]

This is why we needed 200.. coz one six an over is doing it

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is why you do not carry the same losers every world cup. They will find a way tolose.

 

[oatmeal]

Bowling Spinners is suicide here.

 

[Devadwal]

What a pathetic bowl by fraud . kalseen and de kock will smashed him .

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Italy on the verge of being knocked out of Euros too

Few Muslim lads in Swiss team

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

I hope de Kock knows what he is doing with this constant moving around in the crease. As a viewer it makes you nervous

 

[mominsaigol]

Great game, loving this final.

 

[gani999]

Looks like only Bumrah and Arshdeep can save India now. SA have neutralised India's spinners, and Pandya is worthless.

 

[Croma]

I still cant believe they gave the ball to Jadeja

 

[Buffet]

Yah, few more 6's and game will be in control.

 

[oatmeal]

Both Jadeja and Axar Patel's selection was mind boggling

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Last couple of overs they have been able to play easy but still score double fingers.

Need Bumrahs on I think. Need to go for win now.

 

[mominsaigol]

I hope de Kock knows what he is doing with this constant moving around in the crease. As a viewer it makes you nervous

He seems onsong today

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Where you from Polay

You asking where I am from may be. Well my forum handle means Son of Dhakar

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Bumrah can defend 7 off the last

 

[rhony]

11 runs. Good over for SA. SA.loooing very good here. They could have scored a couple.of.more boundaries in that over.

 

[Buffet]

Jadeja has been hit even on bowler friendly surfaces in this WC. SA needs to attack him.

 

[chinaman00]

South Africa playing fire with fire. Not being intimidated at all.

 

[Croma]

Dube has to bowl here...

 

[Nado_]

I told you 180 is par on this pitch , all wicket in India’s innings were batsman mistake . If SA get the run rate to 8 with 7 wickets in hand game over ! But this is a final you never know .

 

[oatmeal]

Rohit is persisting with spin.

 

[psyoptica]

De kock is winning the game for South Africa

You seem to be losing conviction in your troll jinxing haha

 

[Devadwal]

Kuldeep

 

[Buffet]

Bumrah can defend 7 off the last

Nah, depends on who is batting.

 

[Croma]

This is such a crucial over.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

You asking where I am from may be. Well my forum handle means Son of Dhakar

Elaborate on that

 

[oatmeal]

Without 2 quick wickets in the next couple of overs, this is a game over

 

[sweep_shot]

SA - 93/3 (11 overs).

 

[OldWarHorse]

Klassen showing how it's done

 

[castortroy]

Klaasen power is ridiculous

 

[DeadlyVenom]

What a shot. So cool and calm.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

What a shot Klaasen

 

[Croma]

666666666666666666666666666

Saffer are murdering Kuldeeep!

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Geez...klaasen...wow
