India (253/7) hold nerve to beat England (246/7) by 7 runs, qualify for T20 World Cup 2026 Final

[CricVet]

What is the dogon boundary size - 60 meters?

 

[RidiculousMan]

Loool this is joke of a Cricket Ground

 

[big_gamer007]

England are doing good with keeping RRR under control. They have a good chance to make a game out of it, as long as they don’t lose more wickets.

 

[IAJ]

This is a rubbish wicket, honestly.

 

[Buffet]

Eng have no choice here. They have to go down swinging. Good to watch. Atleast they are not playing like SL when they played against NZ in a must win game..

No need to go down while swinging, asking is not that high now.

 

[JaDed]

RRR down to 12.6 lol

 

[batandballbattle]

bethell a good prospect for england

 

[globetrotter]

E gland is winning here?

 

[Human786]

159 from 75 ... need to keep things tight

Bet-hell is going crazy

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

What an innings by bethell

 

[Buffet]

47 runs in 16 balls, lol

 

[straighttalk]

Indian bowlers getting manhandled

 

[Devadwal]

Match is 50-50. Bethell is smashing boundry for fun.

 

[batandballbattle]

He didn’t in this over RR is only 13 and another 4

keeping one eye on arsh and bumrah returning, so they need to maximise the overs of spin

 

[Buffet]

5 overs of this and Eng can win.

 

[RidiculousMan]

Lool. Every mishit goes for a boundary

 

[big_gamer007]

At this rate Varun might score a century in this match.

 

[CricVet]

Fielders are not even getting time to move. What a BS cricket!

 

[RidiculousMan]

Now I understand how Maxwell got 200 here

 

[Human786]

Bet-hell is going crazy

Varun has been pathetic last few games ... 113/4 in 9

 

[big_gamer007]

5 overs of this and Eng can win.

Depends on Bumrah. His 3 overs will decide who wins this one

 

[deltexas]

No need to go down while swinging, asking is not that high now.

Still a tall tall order. Obviously nothing is impossible but yeah Bethell is playing an absolute blinder here... amazing hitting..

 

[JaDed]

Lool. Every mishit goes for a boundary

? Which mishit went for boundary

 

[Sanzcool]

3 overs from Bumrah will be the key here

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

England are within touching distance of the RRR. Issue is wickets which will fall...

 

[Smbhayi]

Wow England going hard..

 

[JaDed]

Hate when it comes down to Bumrah..

 

[RidiculousMan]

Axar is looking sharp. Bowling it real quick like Jaddu

 

[CricVet]

Jacks will be out soon. His hacks are getting only uglier

 

[IAJ]

MSD in the stand, what a player he was

 

[shah9425]

Varun getting smashed

 

[BDfanforever]

Oh Axar is clear chucking couple of deliveries.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Axar is very underrated on flat pitches like these. He's a good defensive bowler unlike Varun who is relying completely on variations

 

[Buffet]

Depends on Bumrah. His 3 overs will decide who wins this one

Eng just need to be but smart in playing. Not do anything stupid.

 

[globetrotter]

Pak fans urging to Jacks... Jack, jack please wake up jack like Kate winslet

 

[CricVet]

Oh Axar is clear chucking couple of deliveries.

When is he not

 

[RidiculousMan]

Axar missed the run out

 

[nish_mate]

You are missing the point, no one cares about cricket especially t20 in western countries doesn’t mean they don’t have a good school system or no one watches it or has banter etc.
What it means is if they lose no one will lose sleep over it and if they win no one will come out on streets and celebrate it.

That’s why western countries have less pressure in these tournaments, than Asian ones. They don’t have any fear/pressure of losing.

It is not an assumption, it’s a fact.

Not sure why you think it matters how many years you been in UK. You support India and are of Indian ethnicity, hence your colleagues have banter with you, if you supported England they wouldn’t have. It has nothing to do with you being there for 1 year or 100 years.

Mate you are assuming Indians can only banter on cricket and you are assuming English dont care about T20 WC. read back your posts. on the streets I agree, no ones come out on the streets post Ashes 2005, even when England won the home Ashes post 2005.

What i had said in my first post to you was there are a few folks in the City who care about this T20 WC match today and you took it on a tangent on they are bantering with you coz you are Indian yaadi yaada... broad brushed assumptions as i said from you

 

[big_gamer007]

MSD in the stand, what a player he was

The cameraman has shown MSD more than the actual players playing the game. I think that guy got a huge crush on MSD

 

[JaDed]

Dayum

 

[RidiculousMan]

2 runs taken off leg byes. Hahaha

 

[deltexas]

? Which mishit went for boundary

Yeah, all were clean clean hits. Amazing hitting amazing cricketing shots.. credit to Bethell, he's playing a blinder here

 

[Prince of Dorne]

Did we play at this venue? The criticism has to be valid. The ball was doing much more at Palekelle than here.

Yes Pakstan would have won the cup playing at Wankhede

 

[JaDed]

Terrible fielding that

 

[Smbhayi]

What, Axar missed run out chance..

 

[RidiculousMan]

Gold over from Axar. This should calm the nerves down for Indian bowlers.

 

[IAJ]

Jacks playing test cricket on this wicket

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

6 run over on this pitch is like a maiden

 

[Human786]

135 req in 60 - getting tight

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Axar is very underrated on flat pitches like these. He's a good defensive bowler unlike Varun who is relying completely on variations

Varun mainly balls into wickets line and likes to deceive with his googly … but problem with him is his is constantly high speed only googly is slightly slower whereas Axar changes line pace spin …

 

[CricVet]

Yes Pakstan would have won the cup playing at Wankhede

Itni asani say jalti hay? Maza ata hay jalanay main

 

[Devadwal]

Two easy run out Chance missed. Both of them bethell

 

[shah9425]

Great over

 

[JaDed]

The cameraman has shown MSD more than the actual players playing the game. I think that guy got a huge crush on MSD

Tbf he was with Rohit who is a local fav

Cringe were Ranbir Alia

 

[IAJ]

The cameraman has shown MSD more than the actual players playing the game. I think that guy got a huge crush on MSD

Well MSD is THE T20 player, so it's natural

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

After 10 overs:

India 119-2
England 120-4

 

[Justcrazy]

England needs 134 runs in 60 balls.

Poms can come close , but winning is difficult , not much batting left

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Got to attack Bumrah … can’t respect him as it won’t work

 

[big_gamer007]

Mate you are assuming Indians can only banter on cricket and you are assuming English dont care about T20 WC. read back your posts. on the streets I agree, no ones come out on the streets post Ashes 2005, even when England won the home Ashes post 2005.

There will always be few people who care about any game. Obviously my post don’t mean in literal sense, it’s exaggeration to post a point, but reality is, in general westerners don’t care about cricket least of all T20 and if your colleagues care then they are exceptions rather than the norm.

Cricket is an Asian sport now. And will continue to grow in Asia unless being in olympics changes it in future.

 

[Smbhayi]

Lol..

 

[Devadwal]

*** is Umpire Doing? How was that wide. Pike ata hai Ben stoke.

 

[hafizexpress]

4 wickets down and 3 overs of Bumrah makes all the difference

 

[deltexas]

Tbf he was with Rohit who is a local fav

Cringe were Ranbir Alia

How about Varun dhawan lol?.

 

[globetrotter]

England 124/4 ..... england is whinning

 

[Kianig89]

Bumrah will be the difference, the hyperextension will prove too much for Eng , already 7 in 1over

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Buttler and Banton should have done better, but on the whole England have done pretty well in a high-pressure run-chase in which most teams would have folded by now.

India still heavy favorites but England very much in the game.

 

[CricVet]

Bumrah ka nishana zabardast hay..taak kay marta hay

 

[Buffet]

No difference here except 2 wickets.

 

[Kianig89]

Nonetheless Eng have fought so far

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Bethell watta inning

 

[Kianig89]

Bumrah ka nishana zabardast hay..taak kay marta hay

Yes it's such an advantage having a bowler with hypertension, replaced Bumrah with Archer and Eng are winning this

 

[BlackstoneRock]

What a Yorker …lol

 

[AAli98]

Bumra chucking like no tomorrow

 

[JaDed]

England doing well, this is were SKY’s captaincy sucks

 

[Human786]

123 req in 54 ...

 

[deltexas]

Hats off to Bethell for an incredible 50..
Keeping the game exciting, that's what you want see instesd of boring games.. good to watch..will test ind bowlers under some serious pressure.. test of skills

 

[Smbhayi]

Slow ball not working in this pitch..

 

[big_gamer007]

If England chase this would it be the greatest chase in T20 world cups?

 

[IAJ]

Missed out on fulltoss there

 

[Devadwal]

Bethell is playing unbelievable innings. We are losing the match by 6 wickets
