India (281/5) defeat Australia (276) by 5 wickets to win the 1st ODI and gain number one position in ICC's ODI Team Rankings

[Devadwal]

Shami becomes the first Indian pacer to take a five-wicket haul in India in ODI after 16 long years.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Not sure what is the point of RUturaj. He is not going to be part of world cup squad.

 

[Devadwal]

This isn't a classic Mohali pitch, it is a bit two-paced.

 

[MP2011]

Lol at Thakur

What a pretender he is and how he is cheating BCCI with his 'cricket skills'

 

[Champ_Pal]

Not sure what is the point of RUturaj. He is not going to be part of world cup squad.

He has been riding the bench for a while now. Selectors wanted to throw a bone towards him.

 

[jattafridi]

need early wickets atleast 2 under 10 overs

Let’s see how prince gill performs

 

[jnaveen1980]

He has been riding the bench for a while now. Selectors wanted to throw a bone towards him.

Yea. should have done after world cup. This is a wasted opportunity to play someone who they are likely to pick.

[jnaveen1980]

One area India won't worry too much about is openers getting injured. Way too many in the pipeline. Ruturaj, Jaiswal, Kishan

Don't think india should pick thakur jadeja and ashwin. Then they would make semis and finals I think.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Tricky chase as these guys have never played as a unit before. But Indian TM will be looking for some players to adapt themselves to new roles.

 

[jattafridi]

Hopefully exciting match

India is too strong in India

 

[Devadwal]

First boundary of the inning by Rituraj

 

[Devadwal]

India batting unit is full of youngsters . let's see how they cope with Australian bowlers

 

[Ahmed216]

First boundary of the inning by Rituraj

Seen him bat I think he's a seriously good batter

 

[Devadwal]

Seen him bat I think he's a seriously good batter

We have too many good openers these day. Gill, Kishan , Rituraj ,Jaiswal

 

[jnaveen1980]

India batting unit is full of youngsters . let's see how they cope with Australian bowlers

It is a team game. More often than not assemblnig good players don't mean immediate success. THey need to gel, develop chemistry. This is why world XI often falters against a settled side.

 

[Devadwal]

Why is Stoinis bowling with New ball ?

 

[jnaveen1980]

Why is Stoinis bowling with New ball ?

That has been their new tactic

 

[Devadwal]

That has been their new tactic

Once Starc and Hazlewood will return Australia attack get very strong

 

[Devadwal]

Cummins is bowling too short ,he need to bowl more fuller delivery to gets any wicket

 

[Devadwal]

What a six by gill

 

[Devadwal]

Stoinis is such a halua Bowler

 

[Devadwal]

Starc>>>> Cummins , Hazelwood or any Australian Bowler in Limited format

 

[vodafone_lover]

need early wickets atleast 2 under 10 overs

Let’s see how prince gill performs

Prince gill will dominate this World Cup, be assured of that.

Rest I hope you are liking his batting so far today

 

[jattafridi]

i like Prince gill and king Kohli

But I hope they always flop against Pakistan

 

[jnaveen1980]

Both these guys are great players of high pace short balls. Ruturaj will take over from Rohit after world cup.

 

[Devadwal]

i like Prince gill and king Kohli

But I hope they always flop against Pakistan

If One of them perform against Pakistan then No one can stop India to winning the match against Pakistan

 

[Devadwal]

Both these guys are great players of high pace short balls. Ruturaj will take over from Rohit after world cup.

I would like to open with Jaiswal and Gill. both are more destructive and Left right combination .

 

[Devadwal]

Rituraj dropped by Wk

 

[Devadwal]

Rituraj is playing for himself . selfish player we don't need

 

[Devadwal]

Very good running. They take 4 runs and why the hell they are checking as they already got 4 runs

 

[vodafone_lover]

i like Prince gill and king Kohli

But I hope they always flop against Pakistan

Offcourse you will wish that and that's understood.

Gill is the biggest threat for Pakistan in upcoming Ind vs Pak match coz he likes to play in that Ahmedabad ground.

 

[Devadwal]

Gill backfoot game is very strong

 

[vprasanna83]

Rituraj is playing for himself . selfish player we don't need

Give the guy a break . He is a seriously good player who is trying to find his feet in the international side .

He has now played some sparkling strokes

 

[MenInG]

India playing like champions.

 

[Devadwal]

India 66/0 in 10 over,Very good start.

 

[Vikram1989]

Rituraj is playing for himself . selfish player we don't need

Gaikwad almost costed us the first 20 20 match against Ireland even though he knows rain may come at any time and we have to score as per dls.He is a selfish stat padder.may be useful for odi and tests.

 

[Devadwal]

India playing like champions.

Australia are without Starc and Hazelwood . They are their main Bowler .

 

[Devadwal]

Gaikwad almost costed us the first 20 20 match against Ireland even though he knows rain may come at any time and we have to score as per dls.He is a selfish stat padder.may be useful for odi and tests.

Yes Jaiswal is better option then TukTuk Raj.

 

[vprasanna83]

To those PPers who exaggerate the impact of pace , Cam Green is consistently bowling close to 145kph but the Indian batsmen are toying with him .

Shami at 135 was so much better

 

[jattafridi]

My prediction Shubman gill 532 runs in this World Cup 2023 with 2 centuries and 4 fifties

Virat Kohli I can’t predict

 

[vprasanna83]

Yes Jaiswal is better option then TukTuk Raj.

Tuk Tuk Raj is 33 from 39 balls . What more do you want ? A quick 20 of 8 and perish ?

This is ODI cricket for heavens sake

 

[vprasanna83]

The Aussies not getting any movement here .

Both the Indian bowlers were getting some seam and swing

 

[MP2011]

Gaikwad is just a IPL and domestic bully. Just increases pressure on his non striker.

 

[MP2011]

Ruturaj will take over from Rohit after world cup.

Hell, no

 

[jnaveen1980]

Hell, no

Yea He will.

 

[vprasanna83]

Ruturaj is a super classy player . Wonder why he gets so much hate on this forum

 

[jnaveen1980]

Ruturaj is a super classy player . Wonder why he gets so much hate on this forum

Lack of observation. He is a fine player. Clean crisp shots. Jaiswal is even slower in domestic with a strike rate of 87 or something. This guy has over 100

 

[Devadwal]

Lack of observation. He is a fine player. Clean crisp shots. Jaiswal is even slower in domestic with a strike rate of 87 or something. This guy has over 100

Yea Jaiswal has higher celling than Rituraj. Jaiswal is all format player

 

[Devadwal]

Yar playing spinners is our weakness

 

[Devadwal]

Shabash gill .this is how we should treat spinners

 

[vprasanna83]

Yar playing spinners is our weakness

Which match are you watching . He just tonked a 4 and a 6

 

[jnaveen1980]

Yea Jaiswal has higher celling than Rituraj. Jaiswal is all format player

Not yet. Jaiswal is a Test bowler right now. Good one. Not a T20 or ODI player yet. But very very soon he will be with Gill or Ruturaj batting at 3.

 

[Devadwal]

Which match are you watching . He just tonked a 4 and a 6

I was talking about in general. If you have watched enough game recently then you have understand what was Im saying

 

[MP2011]

Yea He will.

Then be prepared for us to shell many games because of his tuktuk

 

[jnaveen1980]

Then be prepared for us to shell many games because of his tuktuk

India always had a tuk tuk for hte last 10 years lol

 

[Asad T]

India 101/0 in 16 overs
India produce great opening batsmen like Pak do pacers
The Aussie bowlers have not looked threatening at all

 

[kron]

Aus missing starc hazelwood and just time David?

Not sure he starts over the other fellow.

India missing siraj pandya sundar? Or axar and kuldeep.

Looks very strong both teams.

 

[kron]

India 101/0 in 16 overs

Our pacers attack is good no doubt but I must say indian pace looks attack just as impressive if not even better. I agree with mamoon with that assessment.

Aus india pak all have good pace attacks.

Sabrina slightly weaker and England too.

 

[IAJ]

I watched some overs from the bowlers and the Aussies bowlers kept bowling pies, they did not find the right length and both batsmen look in excellent form. Maybe India are peaking too early.

 

[sweep_shot]

India 101/0 in 16 overs

This is not Australia's main attack. Look at the bowlers.

 

[IAJ]

Not taking anything away from India, but of late they have bowled when the conditions for bowling have been good and they bat when the ball is coming nicely on to the bat.

 

[kron]

Bec

To those PPers who exaggerate the impact of pace , Cam Green is consistently bowling close to 145kph but the Indian batsmen are toying with him .

Shami at 135 was so much better

Because shami seam position is better and he bowls back of length deliveries. Much harder to attack plus his release point is closer to the batsman in comparison to green.

Shami is a great bowler. But he should maintain speeds between 135-141. Looks much more deadly at that pace.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is not Australia's main attack. Look at the bowlers.

Zampa is their main bowler in Indian conditions.

 

[kron]

Not taking anything away from India, but of late they have bowled when the conditions for bowling have been good and they bat when the ball is coming nicely on to the bat.

Yea will be interesting to see them bat first and set a target. I want to see if this attack can defend a 300 total. If they keep picking thakur I back australia to win. And ashwin too who did nothing.

 

[RexRex]

Why is Gaikwad playing when he isn't in the WC squad ?

 

[MP2011]

That was a super cover drive from Gaikwad

 

[Devadwal]

This is not Australia's main attack. Look at the bowlers.

Yes Starc and Hazlewood missing but what about Australian batting as they are playing at full strength ( Batting wise) . This is High scoring ground where 330 is par score .any excuse for that also ?

 

[Champ_Pal]

Tilak Varma should have played in this match. KL Rahul is made of glass. He could have been rested. BCCI seems to be hell bent on making KL the keeper even though Ishan Kishan is in the playing XI.

 

[DJhant]

Not taking anything away from India, but of late they have bowled when the conditions for bowling have been good and they bat when the ball is coming nicely on to the bat.

agreed..batters usually a more letdown

 

[jattafridi]

Gill century is coming

Icc ODI number 1 batsman wow

 

[DJhant]

Yea will be interesting to see them bat first and set a target. I want to see if this attack can defend a 300 total. If they keep picking thakur I back australia to win. And ashwin too who did nothing.

aswin's last 5 overs cost 17 for 1 wicket ( though lucky). Not bad return to ODI almost 2 years after

 

[jnaveen1980]

These 2 are cover drive gods

 

[kron]

This is not Australia's main attack. Look at the bowlers.

Agreed. Also Tim David would play over stoinis I think.

India are also missing 3 or 4 players though. Siraj, kuldeep prasidh pandya

So evens out.

 

[RexRex]

Sumptuous from Gill

 

[kron]

Tilak Varma should have played in this match. KL Rahul is made of glass. He could have been rested. BCCI seems to be hell bent on making KL the keeper even though Ishan Kishan is in the playing XI.

Kl dropped alot today. If india play him as keeper, select thakur and ashwin then india won't win kOs in my opinion.

 

[Iamcoolwhiz]

Yea will be interesting to see them bat first and set a target. I want to see if this attack can defend a 300 total. If they keep picking thakur I back australia to win. And ashwin too who did nothing.

Bumrah and company and extra deadly when they have a score to defend.

Kl dropped alot today. If india play him as keeper, select thakur and ashwin then india won't win kOs in my opinion.

Ashwin is not playing world cup.

 

[Devadwal]

Gone. Don't waste review as it is plumb

 

[kron]

Goneeeeeeeee
Zampa!!!!!
