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

[oatmeal]

Kohli isnt going to hang around. He may fail but he will go down all guns blazing

 

[followed]

Lol South africa is losing this in very first over hahha

 

[rhony]

Jansen with two nervy pies

 

[jnaveen1980]

This leg slip with no swing is a waste of space. He has that slip in every match

 

[mominsaigol]

Kohli 100 coming up

 

[jnaveen1980]

141 kph.

 

[FearlessRoar]

400 SR

Lol Kohli on charge

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Good pitch looks like 200 is par

 

[Usman Chadda]

Jansen with two nervy pies

South Africa will be mauled.

Three one-sided knockout games to end this tournament

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

I think it's the opposite. Maharaj is very clever and will be the one to watch out in this game

He is not playing the same role that Nortje, Rabada, Jansen are

 

[oatmeal]

Ishant opines "whoever is more hungry will win" lol I bet both are hungry.

Azam Khan wins the world cup!

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Wouldn't give him another over for a bit now.

Might try Maharaj early though

 

[Human786]

190 par boyz ? 15 in 1st

 

[followed]

Such a poor bowler this Jansen

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Very poor over to start the final from SA

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

This pitch is the middle pitch of about 8 pitches, 4 on each side of main playing pitch....
So essentially you are running on a pitch like surface, not on grass/outfield on side of main pitch as it usually is....
For the more technical minded amongst us....would a batter have stud shoes or spike shoes ...or combo of both ..?

 

[Human786]

My prediction for the T20 final: The team that chokes second-last will win.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Jansen not finding his length.

 

[oatmeal]

very poor length from this lambu

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Wouldn't give him another over for a bit now.

Might try Maharaj early though

Maharaj on 2nd over as expected

 

[rhony]

No unnecessary risks from Kohli. Looks in good touch

 

[jnaveen1980]

On a similar track Afghanistan would have batted far better. poor guys.

 

[globetrotter]

15-0 in 1st over , wow what a shot by kohli…. Absolutely classic

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Terrible bowling

 

[just a fan]

Post 200 and India winning this no matter. No way they're chasing that much against Bumrah and Kuldeep.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Rohit wouldn't stay quiet here

Get into him early and put him off his lengths

Consecutive boundaries

 

[followed]

Lol Rohit has found that fountain of youth.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Lucky runs for Rohit.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Game over choke mode On

 

[Bewal Express]

SA have frozen in the 1st over

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Post 200 and India winning this no matter. No way they're chasing that much against Bumrah and Kuldeep.

At this rate 220 looks possible

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Lol So much for SA not being nervous

 

[GLORY OF '92]

SA such a waste even Pakistan would have done better

 

[rhony]

India cooking!!

 

[followed]

India has already made south africa cry in just 8 balls

 

[Human786]

23/1

 

[oatmeal]

Rohit Sharma gone

 

[jnaveen1980]

what an unlucky dismissal for Rohit

 

[globetrotter]

Rohit gone

 

[FearlessRoar]

It was a poor decision by Aiden Markram to give the ball to Marco Jansen for the first over.

 

[just a fan]

At this rate 220 looks possible

Lol. Too early!!

 

[Dhakar Pola]

After the 2007 world cup early exit winning here in the windies will be a great revenge by India

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Wow. This is very reminiscent of the 2023 final.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Watta catch! Class by Klaasen

I kind of predicted Rohit's early dismissal because of law of averages. He has been so good in past two games. Had to have a bad game.

 

[mominsaigol]

Rohit gone, is this the start of a collapse

 

[rhony]

Great catch!! Shot was on!! Against the run of play

 

[followed]

He was bound to fail after carrying this team in the whole tournament.

 

[jnaveen1980]

India shouldn't be stopping. They have to keep attacking.

 

[Red-Indian]

India won't regret that. We came out to live or die by the sword.

 

[shortbread]

We'll set up by SA.

 

[PakFan2010]

South Africa strike a hammer blow.

Rohit in the dugout

 

[RidiculousMan]

Rohit gone, is this the start of a collapse

All upto Kohli now.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

I knew they'd surprise us & go with Keshav in first pp...that shot was halwa & pure overconfident from hitman...
C'mon India ...don't waste this

 

[Markhor]

No lack of action so far. Blow for Ind losing the in-form skipper.

 

[guard]

Chalo. We've won the toss and had our luck. Hopefully , we can upset South Africa who have the duas of the rest of the cricketing world

Your choice of words is interesting. Duas is the muslims word for prayer and supplication. Does that mean all the muslims are praying against india including indian muslims. You never use puja or other words. Closet islamophobe per chance?

 

[rhony]

He is not playing the same role that Nortje, Rabada, Jansen are

His role is to strike

 

[RehanG]

not accusing anyone but how comes India always wins crucial tosses. Yes i know they lost semi final toss that was a tricky one.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Pant gone too

 

[Human786]

23/2 ?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pant gone.

 

[sweep_shot]

Rohit is out. Big wicket.

 

[globetrotter]

23/2

 

[Human786]

23/2 ?

yep

 

[Devadwal]

Pant u idiots

 

[PakFan2010]

Hahahahha

India choking in another final.

 

[oatmeal]

India choking

 

[Dhakar Pola]

I knew they'd surprise us & go with Keshav in first pp...that shot was halwa & pure overconfident from hitman...
C'mon India ...don't waste this

Kohli looks like called anuska before the match and anuska said win or don't come back! He looks very focus today

 

[rhony]

Maharaj strikes twice !! Great over by SA. That looks out

 

[jnaveen1980]

Two wickets gone for sweep

 

[sweep_shot]

SA are on top. Pant is out too.

23/2.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

He didn't even walk off himself he knew he hit it

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

His role is to strike

I stand corrected. Unbelievable start by him.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Terrible batting this

 

[mominsaigol]

SA such a waste even Pakistan would have done better

Spoke too soon mate

 

[FearlessRoar]

Maybe India has lost the game since Rohit is gone, and the last chance for India depends on Pandya and Sky performing well.

 

[followed]

Lol overrated rishabh pant. That's why he averages 23 in t20i cricket.
He is not a good loi batsman

 

[Kaptan]

What's the obsession with sweep shots?

 

[RidiculousMan]

Gone! Another wicket! That was hilariously unlucky

 

[Red-Indian]

That's a body blow

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pant after 2 good games serial failure.
