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?

Dua only means prayer. The fact that you extrapolated that to something else only reveals your mindset , brother.

 

[Human786]

150 all out loading

 

[rhony]

Not sure why they even reviewed that. How can a bump ball go so high

 

[oatmeal]

Kohli gets to play the accumulator role now, he's most comfortable with it

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Geez Rishabh....what have U done....I'll bet this will get a lot crawling out of the woodwork...

 

[Markhor]

India in suicide mode. Attack the PP by all means but you already had 23 after 1.3 overs.

 

[PakFan2010]

India are like James Harden

Great in the regular season, but go missing when it matters.

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

I said pant would make duck and it happened

 

[sweep_shot]

Need to get Kohli and SKY out quickly.

 

[oatmeal]

Not a good world cup for Pant though he showed some bright spots here and there

 

[PakFan2010]

If Rohit gets out early, India's batting line-up will fold under pressure.

I predicted this.

India will be 50/5

 

[AAli98]

Pant after 2 good games serial failure.

Will they still make a Bollywood movie on him.. after accident played in World Cup etc. akshay will play him

 

[just a fan]

Even Bumrah and Kuldeep wouldn't be able to save at this rate!!

 

[RidiculousMan]

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

His game is pure risk and luck. One of the few batters in international Cricket that relies on luck. The same shots will pull off one day but on another day it will bring comical dismissals.

This is why I don't like a risky no. 3 in even T20s. You should have hitters in your XI all over but your no. 3 has to be anchor.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Kohli and sky..this is the most important partnership of the match for India

 

[jnaveen1980]

Now Kohli will tuk utk lol Unlike Rohit who kept attacking.

 

[rhony]

I stand corrected. Unbelievable start by him.

Yep. I think the one that got Pant dipped a bit. Very good bowling

 

[RidiculousMan]

Now Kohli is feeling pressure and I think he will go a bit in his shell and kind of the original no. 3 role that he had.

 

[LegendAli]

What was Mahraj doing there? Never ever seen anyone do a prayer ritual like that.

 

[Markhor]

Look at that carry. This isn't the Guyana mudheap !

 

[oatmeal]

Sky needs to come good today.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Now Kohli will tuk utk lol Unlike Rohit who kept attacking.

Yep. You can see right now. Last shot he clipped straight to mid on. Exact same shot he flicked it for four to Jansen in the first over. But he is now cautious.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Kohli going to tuk now.

 

[globetrotter]

150 all out loading

140 also enough…SA gonna choke

 

[oatmeal]

what happened to Nortje

 

[Dhakar Pola]

This stage is set for Kohli. He is a champion player, can he make India champions today

 

[rhony]

Big punches by both teams so far. India with a flurry of boundaries and SA striking twice. SA.shaved atleast 20 runs from the possible total I think

 

[followed]

Suryakumar is the important wicket here

 

[FearlessRoar]

Kohli from sr of 400 to now sr of 175.00

 

[RidiculousMan]

Like it or not. India's chance of putting up a decent score is with Kohli. He has to anchor all the way. Because other batters can collapse at any moment.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Kohli going to tuk now.

I think if Kohli plays 20 overs India will win

 

[oatmeal]

India always struggle against left arm spin

 

[jnaveen1980]

Looking at the shots of Pant and now the SKY ball is holding up. It is hitting the toe end of the bat.

 

[RidiculousMan]

lol What was this shot. Lucky Sky

 

[jnaveen1980]

This pitch is not good for stroke play by the look of it , if it is back of a length.

 

[Ab Fan]

Kohli can be vulnerable vs spin.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Sharma is a huge wicket!

 

[sweep_shot]

This game is giving 2023 WC final vibe.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Should Virat Kohli anchor or attack?

 

[RidiculousMan]

This pitch is not good for stroke play by the look of it , if it is back of a length.

It is a 170-180 pitch. Just like the last semi final.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This pitch is way too dry for usual stroke play. It is somewhat like semi final pitch except it bounces a bit more.

 

[Hikaru]

I hope Maharaj bhaiya takes a 5fer but India wins the match.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Kohli has to step up if india wants to win today

 

[oatmeal]

Very poor half tracker by Maharaj

 

[Human786]

32/2 in 4

 

[Kaptan]

Rohit and Pant have gifted their wickets to Maharaj.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I hope Maharaj bhaiya takes a 5fer but India wins the match.

Where you from bhikaru

 

[rhony]

India needs 125 in the next 16 overs. That could be a winning total

 

[Ab Fan]

Run rate is good and India have batting depth so loss of 2 wickets will be compensated if we don't lose any more wicket till powerplay.

 

[FearlessRoar]

I hope Maharaj bhaiya takes a 5fer but India wins the match.

double win

 

[jnaveen1980]

I think Markram will bowl too.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Any other team would have thought twice about opening the bowling with a spinner against India. But South Africa trusted the match-up of the left arm spinner against India's top-order as well as Maharaj's smarts as a bowler and it paid off. Shows where Markram's mind is as captain. Now they have to make this start count though. As long as Kohli is there, India are in the game.

 

[Human786]

Dua only means prayer. The fact that you extrapolated that to something else only reveals your mindset , brother.

what is this skirmish all about ?

 

[Dhakar Pola]

It is a 170-180 pitch. Just like the last semi final.

SA are more suspectable to get out for 103 than england. If India manages 170 I don't see SA winning this

 

[oatmeal]

Kohli is timing the ball very well but not getting the best placement. in good form , there would be three boundaries in the over

 

[mominsaigol]

Sky can't give his wixket away, need him to fire this final

 

[Ab Fan]

South Africa's bowling hasn't been good.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Kohli really struggles to hit spinners in the middle. Finds it hard to rotate strike when tied to in the powerplay.

 

[sweep_shot]

IND - 32/2 (4 overs).

 

[BaaliSoda]

Horror start from us.

Pant for all his exploits in Test cricket, he just isn’t the same player in LOIs.

Hope we somehow reach a respectable table to make match out of the final.

Need at least a 140 plus score.

 

[RidiculousMan]

South Africa's bowling hasn't been good.

I think it has been both hot and cold. But a bit more cold than hot.

 

[Mas-LFC]

India better not disappoint like 2023 cwc final, batting first. As neutrals we want to see a good hard fought final! Team batting first need to get good total.

 

[big_gamer007]

Ridiculous to not play Jaiswal today.
Against Keshav maharaj he would have been so effective as an opener.

Dravid deserves to be sacked and be unemployed for rest of his life.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sky throws his wicket away

Stupid shot

 

[Human786]

34/3

 

[JaDed]

Great we lose another final lmao

 

[jnaveen1980]

I knew . that.. There is a fielder specifically for that

 

[oatmeal]

Overrated Sky fails again

 

[followed]

South africa on fire and crowd goes quiet.hahahh

 

[GLORY OF '92]

SKY!!!

 

[TheSultan]

Come on Saffers!

 

[jnaveen1980]

Congrats SA. They are gifting wickets after wickets. Dube walking wicket

 

[JaDed]

Our worst power play performance in the final

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

& Surya goes.....garbage ball to get out to....even more garbage shot.... terrific catch....
& Now the traffic on this site will increase

 

[Sunny_majoka]

India bottling it again?

 

[mominsaigol]

Huge huge huge wicket

 

[sweep_shot]

SKY is out.

SA are truly on top now.

34/3.

 

[PakFan2010]

Another choke job from SKY

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Again no faith in Dube as Axar comes in

 

[Ahmed216]

@Major u have the last laugh ..SKY looked nervy
