[pillionrider]

Dube meanwhile twisting those ugly lips around trying to look casual but hoping no one notices he's supposed to be a bowler too.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Useless Jadeja

 

[Devadwal]

India has 6th bowling option yet Rohit is bowling with Hardik .

What a pathetic captain

 

[Croma]

India surely can defend this? How can you not defend 206 in a World Cup match and that too when it’s a dead rubber for you a knockout match for the other team. India has the bowling line up to defend this

They are currently being thwarted by a major Headache

 

[Kaptan]

Who gets thrashed by this Maxwell?

 

[RidiculousMan]

Maxwell toying with Jadeja

 

[JaDed]

I hate Jaddu with a passion

 

[jnaveen1980]

The same Jadeja bowled 2 overs 38 runs and lost the match against Australia in 2010. Here we are 2024.

 

[cricketmania22]

Maybe give Bhumrah one over and see if he can get Travis.

 

[sweep_shot]

Aussies are favorites now.

 

[Buffet]

Wow Maxi...

Few more of this an RR will be down to 8-9.

 

[oatmeal]

Easy peasy for Australia

 

[Croma]

India need miracle to win from here.

 

[jnaveen1980]

I told they cover the reverse sweep. THey didn't once again.

 

[JaDed]

The same Jadeja bowled 2 overs 38 runs and lost the match against Australia in 2010. Here we are 2024.

Well if Rohit got similar score Jaddu deserves it too

 

[oatmeal]

Rohit will have to bring Bumrah back

 

[Human786]

116/2 in 11

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Useless Jadeja

Why don't they set a fielder when they know that Maxi always prefers the switch shots?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Strategically INdia is one of the worst team.

 

[Devadwal]

Jadeja is smashed by Maxwell

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Australia are too good.

 

[rhony]

Aus on par now. That over turned things a little.

 

[Buffet]

Aus should win it from here with 8 wickets in hands with two best hitters playing.

 

[Kaptan]

Rohit the batsman
Rohit the captain

 

[mominsaigol]

Travis is a different beast when playing India, bes too good against this side.

 

[Markhor]

India has 6th bowling option yet Rohit is bowling with Hardik .

What a pathetic captain

There's no way in hell Pandya should've had a third over today when you've six other bowling options.

 

[JaDed]

I have come to believe that one pak poster is the worst analyst and jinxer we have never won ICC wc since he started posting.

 

[Buffet]

Just play Kuldeep well,

 

[Nikhil_cric]

@CrIc_Mystique Still think Jadeja is an automatic selection , brother?

 

[ahmed16]

Australia are too good.

They win this today, they're winning the tourney imho.

Was there ever any doubt?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Why don't they set a fielder when they know that Maxi always prefers the reverse sweep?

I called it out even before Maxwell came in Apparently Indian think under Dravid is useless.

 

[JaDed]

Awesome batting by Travis!

 

[Human786]

125/2 - kachra ho gaya

 

[sweep_shot]

81 are needed from 8 overs.

Aussies are winning now.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pitch up deliveries were brutally punished by Head.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

This has to be the partnership

 

[AAli98]

Seems like Ind want to play SA in the semis

 

[JaDed]

Top knock by Travis unfortunate for Afghans.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

81 are needed from 8 overs.

Aussies are winning now.

Thanks for the confirmation.

 

[JaDed]

New Axar has it in him but lets see

 

[Buffet]

Only one over of Kuldeep left now.

 

[JattMaula]

We got Headed again!

At least this isn't a final.

 

[mominsaigol]

Bye Bye Afghanistan.

 

[Buffet]

Fantastic WC this. Cracking games.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Excellent over by Patel

 

[Cover Drive Six]

I am frustrated with Rohit's strategy. He is using spinners when Maxwell is at the crease and continuously operated Pandya despite him leaking runs.
He should have used Hardik now.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Will they bowl out Kuldeep or reserve him for later?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

I am frustrated with Rohit's strategy. He is using spinners when Maxwell is at the crease and continuously operated Pandya despite him leaking runs.
He should have used Hardik now.

Spin done well

There's another Maxwell gone

 

[Red-Indian]

India have more or less qualified I guess now. It's going to be tight finish to this one though and we all know who to trust in a tight finish.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

That was pretty stupid by Maxwell

 

[Buffet]

Few more big shots early in over will do.

 

[SpiritOf1903]

India playing four spinners on a road , no doctoring here :

 

[JaDed]

I am frustrated with Rohit's strategy. He is using spinners when Maxwell is at the crease and continuously operated Pandya despite him leaking runs.
He should have used Hardik now.

Because of this..Spinners are getting turn, he wanted Maxi to go against them, Jaddu sucks thats all

 

[Devadwal]

Head is still on the crease .easy chase

 

[RidiculousMan]

If you have played against a player far too many times. Would you rather be a batter against him or a bowler when facing him?

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Wheel started turning again... Kuldeep, you beauty!
Please pick one more wicket.

 

[mominsaigol]

I'm not worried as long as head is their

 

[Buffet]

What a stupid shot, just had to play Kuldeep one over.

 

[Markhor]

Fantastic WC this. Cracking games.

We've had a little bit of everything. High scoring slugfests, low scoring shootouts and surfaces in between.

 

[Kaptan]

If you have played against a player far too many times. Would you rather be a batter against him or a bowler when facing him?

Batter

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Aussies need 3 big overs.

 

[JaDed]

Kuldeep and Axar are a good combination, Jaddu is our issue big time.

 

[big_gamer007]

How many runs or overs does Afghanistan have to win by in order to knock India out at current Indian NRR?

 

[Buffet]

Still Aus game to lose here. 7 wickets in hands

 

[Red-Indian]

Kuldeep finding spin greatness again has been one of the truly great stories in Indian cricket over the last 2 to 3 years.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Lovely shot Head right in the gap 4

 

[JaDed]

Kuldeep should stick to that line itself, it’s worth it.

 

[Buffet]

How many runs or overs does Afghanistan have to win by in order to knock India out at current Indian NRR?

That won't happen because Aus also need to win by a big margin and as soon as India made 200 plus, India made sure that they can't get knocked out.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Kuldeep and Axar are a good combination, Jaddu is our issue big time.

Fake all-rounder in T20 format, he is good for CSK.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Brainless shot by Maxwell but credit to Kuldeep and Axar for building the pressure

 

[JaDed]

Good spell by Kuldeep

 

[Mockingbird]

Will be harder for Australia to hit out now with the softer ball.

 

[sweep_shot]

Kuldeep is done with his overs.

Bumrah has 2 overs left. Aussies can target the other 4 overs.

 

[jnaveen1980]

All the extra runs scored by Mitch Marsh will hurt India.

 

[JaDed]

Need Axar to bowl same length and not try anything different

edit: and he did it excellent

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Fantastic spell by Kuldeep 2-24 off his 4 overs in the context of the match.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Kuldeep showed again why he's the best leg spinner in limited overs.

 

[oatmeal]

This will be an easy win for Australia if Head doesnt get out in the next couple of overs

 

[big_gamer007]

That won't happen because Aus also need to win by a big margin and as soon as India made 200 plus, India made sure that they can't get knocked out.

So we gonna most likely play England now. That’s gonna suck too

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Patel gets Stoinis and that's probably the game too
