India (267/6) defeat Australia (264) by 4 wickets to qualify for the final of ICC Champions Trophy 2025

[baba ghazi]

These two teams are meeting in this format for the first time since Australia quieted a roaring Ahmedabad crowd to secure the World title.


how's the josh indian fans???

not indian fan but australia seems much weaker without starc and most importantly pat cummins.. his cutter and slower balls could have been crucial at this pitch

 

[baba ghazi]

if india bats well they have an opportunity to score 300 against this attack..300 will be too much for aussies

 

[mango_bite77]

Doesn't matter. It is an ICC event. We butchered them.

Format matters, they have outplayed India in longer format for last 15 years.

I don't see australia winning here but i would love to see them make indian fans cry like they did in 2023 world cup.

That was so so pleasing to see.
Let's go again australia...

Shreyas iyer was such a timid awful talentless hack but it seems like he has worked on his game and he looks better against fast bowling.
Pakistani loser batsmen should learn from these indian batsmen.

Josh is great. Knocked both East and West Pakistan out and got a bonus win against NZ as well.

Round and round and round.

[globetrotter]

Indian spinners have gr8 chance to bundle out AUS below 230

 

[kingusama92]

Batting first will be Australia's best chance of winning.

Still a massive uphill battle.

So no JFK??? @mominsaigol

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

This joker Rohit has lost 14 tosses in a row, hopeless cricketer who can't even win the toss. Tulla Head once again getting lucky with the toss and weakened opposition, hope he can put up a show and knock this Indian team out after their shenanigans on the 23rd.

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Head will score a century today. Australia to win by 85 runs. Bookmark it. @Devadwal @mominsaigol @Bhaag Viru Bhaag

Yeah he sure has talent on flat tracks. Greatest FTB ever by far

Calm down Rohit, there have so far been same slow turning wickets in Dubai. Who are you trying to fool?

 

[Hellion]

Yeah he sure has talent on flat tracks. Greatest FTB ever by far

Yeah and Pakistanis are so talented on bouncy and green tracks. Sure

 

[BDfanforever]

Good God Aus playing Sangha and Ind with their 4 spinners.

 

[IAJ]

India still massive favourites, Aus need a big score here

 

[IAJ]

Good God Aus playing Sangha and Ind with their 4 spinners.

They have Zampa also

 

[Hikaru]

14 straight toss loss, chance of that happening is 1 in 16384, Rohit surely isn't someone you will take to a casino.

 

[Rana]

Time to rise to the occasion young Aussie guns!

Create your legacy

Lol why did they drop Spencer johnson. He would have been useful in the second innings with swing and pace.

He also lost TOSS against Pakistan, still wins the match

No, but ig it's fine. Cooper Connolly is a good talent

 

[Hikaru]

Australia massive favorites batting first. India's only chance is displaying the superiority we all know exists.

 

[BDfanforever]

This is more like BBL XI vs India

 

[globetrotter]

Battle between Indian spinners Vs. Australian batsman will decide fate of this match

 

[Romali_rotti]

YESsssss Korma the toss loser lost a crucial one here, the wicket will turn no way Indians will chase anything more than 180 on this track..

Finally Indians will get KOedd...

 

[BDfanforever]

Aus need spin slayer Klassen.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

If India was batting first, would have given the game to India. Batting second I think India might still win.

India played better than I expected and the pitch got much easier batting second which I had not anticipated. If India win the CT, I will be the first to congratulate them especially proud Indians like @Devadwal and @Bhaag Viru Bhaag . However, their journey ends here. Tulla Head will smash these trundlers. This is the end of the road. A team that has washed up Kohli and useless Rohit does not deserve to win @Dr_Bassim

 

[AAli98]

Boring why would anyone want to watch 80 overs out of 100 of spin mediocre bowlers like Axar.

What gives you a thrill? 150 balls of Babar and Rizwan scoring 75 runs?

Yeah..You are right.
Go and watch Ind vs Pak match highlights.

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

This is the perfect setting for a mediocre tulla like Head. Won the toss, best conditions - opposition has their best bowler out and second best bowler half fit. For once I will support this mediocre HTB Tulla.

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Black lentils time for Indian fans and Dimmy supporters today. Expecting another 50 posts from proud Indian Bhaag Viru Bhaag with the Alam emoji.

Oh look somebody is back. When is Pak semifinal.

Oh wait. Did they even play in the tournament?

To be fair Legside tries to play hard for 3 balls before he goes tuk tuk for the next 30 deliveries.

Any RizBar fan who comes here to troll India or Australia

Know that I will ruin your morning and afternoon!

Khud kuch karna nahi aur doosro main keerray nikaalne hain?!

this India/Aus side is very average barring Smith. Rizwan and Babar are arguably better than anyone playing today with the possible exception of Smith and Kohli if you consider overall.

 

[adi_62941]

Please india lose today please, we want to see ICC tournament final in lahore. Its only our last chance to see any final in Pakistan as not expecting ICC to award any tournament to Pakistan

 

[BouncerGuy]

THREAD IS NOT ABOUT RIZWAN AND BABAR

 

[Croma]

Wide donated by SHami

 

[globetrotter]

Start is similar to Pakistan match … wide by Shami … good sign for India

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

All Indian fans - I put you on notice today. @Bhaag Viru Bhaag @Rajdeep @Devadwal @RahulBose @Mesozoic Tulla Head will destroy you today. This is Sparta! You are on my watch and no one can save you if India gets a phainta as expected.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Shami is too good against Lefties...

 

[Adnan_Ilyas]

Travis Head has been dropped

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Should be a good game. Good luck to our Indian friends on this forum

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Predictions - Australia 300/6. Head tulla 120. India 215 all out. No conditions advantage today for India having lost the toss. Bookmark it. I am waiting.

 

[Ahmed216]

Aus won toss first wish granted.
2nd wish quick travis head ton

Dropping head first ball not good

Tulla Head will smash these Indian trundlers and B grade attacks as only he can do. Head is the greatest trundler smasher and HTB/FTB in the world.

 

[jamie smith]

I can see determination in Tullas eyes.

 

[BouncerGuy]

NO PERSONAL STUFF

 

[Ahmed216]

Aussies never defeat themselves in big games. India although favorites have their work cut out

 

[globetrotter]

Travis head wicket is coming

 

[OldWarHorse]

240 might be a winning score

 

[Ahmed216]

First game for Aussies in these conditions. Head can afford to take a couple of overs to get used to it

This neither a flat pitch not his home.

[jamie smith]

Head looking clueless.
This is the danger for India.

 

[Ahmed216]

Indians cramping him for room. Good stuff so far

 

[Croma]

Head might take some time to get used to the speed dof this pitch

 

[Bhaijaan]

These are not the batting friendly pitches of Bharat-Pakistan , my Dear Travis chico

Bhai andha ghuma raha hae balla

 

[jamie smith]

Head is struggling

This is good for aus.
Remember wc final 23.

 

[RizwanT20Champ]

Tulla Head come on you loser HTB! Smash these trundlers.

 

[kron]

Shami dropped a sitter catch

His nationality should be questioned hey?

Maybe start a thread?
