What's new

India [195/4] defeat Australia [194/5] by 6 wickets to clinch T20 series

Exactly 194 is a super total. Hoping for a super over loool.

Indian C grade bowler chahar may have cost the game. Chahal imo is a C grade bowler outside India but each to their own

Chahal is only good at T20 anyway.

I agree with you on Chahal, last match it seems he got two of three wickets when bat'smen were going for big shots, not really beating the batsmen with his guile.
Natranjhan is good.
 
Yeah, Mumbai doesn't seem to enjoy the favour anymore. I know someone who works in IPL (runs the operations of a franchise) who tells me there are always groupings in the team, with Mumbai, North India and South India being the major blocks and since Dhoni, it has changed, where everyone now has to speak Hindi and North India (under Dhoni and Kohli) seems to be in control. Having said that, he said that it isn't as political as it used to be, and while there are biases, performance matters more now.

I am yet to see it change. It also helps that management drops players after 2 games so players are always worried about their spot.
 
There should be no excuse now when India comes on to bat. Apart from Rohit India is playing their full strength batting. Aus was also missing Warner's services. This is one of the worst Aussie bowling attack I have seen. :inti
 
What’s the best Indian bowling lineup in T20s?

Something like this?

Mohammad Shami
Jasprit Bumrah
T Natarajan
Hardik Pandya
Yuzvendra Chahal
Ravindra Jadeja

Who are the best bench fast bowlers in your opinion? Say Bumrah gets injured, who comes in? Who’s the second choice? Third choice?

I thought there were a lot of good choices based on that thread on IPL domestic bowlers quality (not trolling, just seriously want to know who)

Bumrah
Shami
Bhuvi (don't forget Bhuvi. He is a phenomenal T20 bowler. Good support odi bowler and a quality test bowler).

Saini
Porel (legit talent not given chances)
Siraj
Tyagi
Khaleel
And then natrajan for me.

In that order. Quality outside best 3 is definitely weaker. But that's the same for all top teams.
Australia without Starc and Cummins is weaker.
Pakistan without Shaheen is weaker.
England without Archer is mediocre tbh.

Rohit
Rahul
Kohli
Iyer
Pant
Pandya
Jaddu

That would be our best batting line-up. We are missing Rohit, pannuati, jaddu. So?

As I said earlier this is a silly excuse because both Bumrah and Shami are in the squad. They are available to play. If they can play 2 months of useless IPL then surely they can play 3 T20's for India? If there was no IPL then these players would have never dared to miss even a practice game let alone an international match. It's pretty clear IPL money has made them 'nikamma' and 'ehsan framosh' that they can even think of taking rest in an important series like this. :inti

Kohli

Now suddenly Jaddu has become an integral part of this team? Lol at Pant. He is a joke in T20's. India is only missing Rohit whereas Aus were missing Finch and Warner in this match. :inti

India are missing Jadeja Rohit and pant.
Pant is good in T20 whether you like it or not. I hate pant but I still think he is better than.....actually forget about it

I would say we are missing Kishan and suryakmuar Yadav. Both quality and better than the players who got picked for today.
 
KL Rahul 7(8) in the powerplay so far, 6th gear on full view. What’s the point of accelerating at the end of the innings if you’re just making up for the beginning of the innings?

Note** before Indians get offended i still rate KL Rahul as the number 1 batsman in T20 cricket right now.

ROFL at pant hack. He averages 20 with 122 strike rate in 27 T20is.Indian fans keep making excuses after excuses

Rahul no 1 really?

Jadeja has only 200 runs in t20is with strike rate of 112 and he averages 15. ROFL him being missed.he is not even a batsman
 
I agree, he starts way too slow ! Even Rohit, Kohli and Iyer do the same. India needs a batsman who can start aggressively from ball 1.

Bad captaincy so far changing bowlers after one over. Good batting by Indian openers last two overs.
 
Sean Abbot
Samms
Tye
Maxwell

Surely Ponting can admit this is the worst bowling attack to ever represent Australia at international level?
 
Bro talk when you win a game of T20 In Australia yea. Otherwise continue watching PSL. No need to berate quality teams.

When two top teams play each other, they always look ordinary. They look good only while massacring smaller teams.
 
LOL at shami he has only played 12 T20is he averages 35 with 9 economy even trundler chahar and trundler shardul is better than shami in T20is.
No he is not.silly boy. Shami is a world class all format bowler and he would have ripped through Australia in T20. Stats isn't everything mate.

PSL fodders should never utter shami's name. Win a game in Australia first and then talk.
 
India is not missing anyone apart from Rohit the FTB Sharma and the goat the sheep ugly action bumroo.
 
Can we stop talking about who is missing getting so boring. Both teams are missing couple world class players, the rest are replaceable.
Shikar shear playing good inning.

“FTB” Sharma is a better ODI/T20 batsman than anyone in our history.

Calling him a FTB is an outdated opinion. It is not 2015 anymore.
 
Unbelievable how much nonsense our fans talk. Someone rightly said that when a cricket nation becomes mediocre, the fans also become mediocre.
 
Opening an India match thread shows the frustration among Pakistani fans these days.

All you see is them running their mouths and itching to see India lose so that they can get some mental peace.

Pitiful stuff.

Well done for appearing when the match is still in the balance for your side. Very brave of you.
 
Australia have pulled this back since the powerplay.

two leggies are key here
 
We have no chance at the world T20 next year. It'll either be England (most likely) or Australia. West Indies as usual will be the dark horses.

You can't expect this accumulators filled lineup to go beyond semis (as usual).
 
Zampa reminds me of a typical u13 leg spinner at most cricket clubs here. He can bowl some excellent lines but is bound to bowl 1-2 half trackers an over because of trying too hard!

Anything under semis would be an insult to India and Australia seriously I don’t think so they are very overrated they are quite pathetic in t20s they will lose this one very easily these accumaltors will turn into beligerent hitters in the overs to come
 
This swepson bloke looks very impressive. He is just taking those extra few milliseconds in his delivery stride to checkout what the batsmen are attempting
 
The two leg spinners turning on the screws. Are India still good against wrist spinners as they were in the past?

They may get away at the death against this joke of an attack but against decent attacks, don't think so. And no Australia aren't overrated.

Bro Australia have a long tail there tail is worst than India's Zampa Hazelwood Starc Abbot
 
If Aus lose this match then apart from I dias good batting, the decision of bowling Maxwell should be questioned especially after one over bowled by opening bowler.

India will be hot favourites. India just needs to workout the right combination.

India England and Australia and either Pak or saffers should be semis comfortably. From there it's anyone's game.
 
Samson always has that extra few seconds....to make a brain **** decision

Relax. Its T20. One hack go berserk and win you the game. Nobody is superior in this format.
 
Swepson looks quality. Seems to have changed his action a bit since I saw him bowl last 3 years back in BBL.

Captaincy has been pretty awful from Wade though.
Sams was swinging it earlier on yet bowled only 1 over then was brought back when Swepson and Zampa were bowling pretty well.
 
Bro Australia have a long tail there tail is worst than India's Zampa Hazelwood Starc Abbot

Australia is ridiculously overrated. Dude they can win yea. In Australia only. They won't win anywhere else. I don't Understand why people overrate them.
 
Joel Paris, Behrendorff, Coulter Nile, Jhye Richardon, Kane Richardson, Billy Stanlake are probably all better than this bowling attack. Don't know the logic behind Australian selectors here.
 
Perfect combination at the crease for India.

If they bat till the end they should win this easily.
 
Been a while since Kohli has masterminded a difficult chase. Let's see if he can do it today.
I feel like India are the favorites here unless kohli gets out.
 
loads of talent in indian lineup , surely favourites to won next world t20.

would win 8 out of 10 matches against pakistan.
 
Tye too predictable. Hes bowled everything wide outside off
