What's new

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

Yea expect your players are crap now

India have the best pace attack at full strength
Even current Shaheen is better than any Indian bowler bar Bhumrah. Stop this delusion. Rohit after all the tikka masala looked clueless against Shaheen, big inswinger and he got owned as usual.
 
Tulla useless joker Head. Will forever be a mediocre FTB/HTB/Weak attack bully. Show me one innings from this joker where his team lost the toss. Zero test hundreds away from home. Pure tulla. We have such tullas in every corner of Peshawar.
Tulla is better than any Pakistani batsman in odi though

And better than kohli too

lol all of them are worse than siraj, arshdeep etc.

gill broke shaheen.
 
Smith and Labu need to channel that Inzimam and Yousuf within them

Those two bossed Indian spinners in the middle in their time
No clue about labu, But smith is the most dangerous batsmen in the entire tournament against spin.

People have forgotten that his form slump was never against spin. It was always against spin. This guy doesn't struggle even kn rank turners
 
Challo Head ache ko nikaala.....now need to Smith and labs quickly...also internet servers breathing a sign of relief....so many people's coping mechanism now taking a hit :)....maan na maan - me tera begaani shaandi ka mehman... :ua
 
Arshdeep trundler cannot even make the side. He is like a Bangla pacer. Siraj is a club level bowler.
arshdeep has won a t20 wc. none of the pak pacers even have an asia cup.

siraj has won tests in aus, sa, eng and helped ind win/draw series there. shaheen, naseem have won a sum total of ZERO matches in SENA.

Fakhar >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Head Tulla. Fakhar CT final knock where Pak lost the toss is better than anything this loser Tulla managed when they lost the toss. Today won the toss, got the better conditions and 2 chances and still got owned. Joke player.

If he keeps scoring even after drops then he can’t be a joke dude

You don’t constantly get luck
 
Our only hope is brother @sweep_shot

He is sleeping now as its night in Canada. But once he wakes up, logs in and make his predictions...fortunes of India can change.

Kaha gaya usse dhundo

:kp
rest assured he is awake and watching...was about to download his usual stuff but Varun stuffed his immediate khushiyaan...(for the time being ) :)
 
Steve Smith always perform against us in big games. The only time he failed was in WC 2023 finals but he was not out had he reviewed it.

Dude, jaane do. Kyon unke jaley pe chilli powder chadakthey ho?
 
Varun maybe another 2 years max I think he will be ok for

Still feel it’s novelty factor or maybe he is really good ?

Cant tell
 
Hats off to Australian fighting spirit. They’re always looking to win , looking to dominate.

Only way to defeat them is to kill them.

Ain’t no way you let Australia play out the way they want and they will lose. This is where they differ from all the teams of the world.
 
Steve Smith has to be the most entertaining batsmen i have ever seen.

Dude can entertain you while playing dot balls 🤣🤣
 
Axar to Smith, no run, run-out chance missed. Chakaravarthy the man at short fine-leg. He fumbles and allows Smith to get away, flicked to him and had he picked it up cleanly, Smith was in trouble. :ssmith
 
Before this tournament, I dont remember seeing three left arm slow bowlers bowl together in the same match...
 
This Chakravarthy guy has an interesting life story. Started playing cricket seriously at 26. Was an architect who wanted to make movies! Something we have in common lol. Probably wouldn't even have played for India if it wasn't for IPL.
He can't play for more than three years with his current fitness. He is a liability as a fielder, poor runner who struggles with ground-running catches. With him, India starts at a -10 run disadvantage.
However, he is an excellent spinner and very skillful.
 
Bharat will be happy to talk out today restricting the Aussies to 240.

240-260 is tricky total range

260+ and the Aussies will be favorites to win here although we will have a chance.

290+ game over for us.

If Varun continues to pickup wickets like NZ game, then India can afford him as fielder

Beyond that, I'm not sure how long he can go before he is found out. Not every mystery spinner is an Ajantha Mendis. And even Mendis didn't have a long career. His fielding and fitness not being good makes sense considering his non-traditional background.

In the short-term though, you can expect him to rule the roost. If you can get 3 good years out of him, I'd consider that a success.

His fitness was evern worse before, he's worked on it, but has long way to go....at 33 his body will still responsd, but main factor is if he is up for it....well on another aspect his only hope is to deliver bagfuls of wickets at a low budget....so far in his second coming, i would say he has succeded in in this....if he even improves 10 pc of fitness and learns to anticipate shots -that would greately benefit us...
 
Best of the best smith
Vs india

And then there is Inglis English boy

And lastly Maxwell the hack fraud
 
Aussie bowlers are unlikely to trouble India on this pitch. Only Zampa may be somewhat challenging. It will be a walk in the park for India if Australia don't score above 260 here.
 
Aussies surely hv better one day players than Labu. There should be only one anchor in the middle overs Smith or Labu.
