India [352/5] defeat Australia [316] by 36 runs in ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

our team managed to score 350, eng nearly got it.

aus have 10% of winning this but it was a good toss to win.
 
Where are all those jokers who were saying it's difficult for India to even reach 300 against Starc, Cummins and Zampa? :)))
 
Good innings and dropped catches and India still only get 350 on a batting paradise. However the aussue batting is pretty inconsistent, if the bowlers can take finch, Warner and Smith then its game over.
 
I must admit I'm motivated purely by self-interest in this match :))

Thank you Dhawan and Kohli, get the Drinks Carriers up the Fantasy League table.
 
will be interesting for what ind spinners go for.

Zampa got hammered today, they too have the 5th bowler of pandya and Jadhav
 
Hope Bumrah, Kuldeep n co get smashed and Oz race to victory.

Hafeez, ROot were not dropped? The way Rahul smashed the three balls, he probably would have scored quicker.
 
I would have taken 352 with arms wide open at the start of the match. Hope Bhuvi and Kuldeep doesn't go over 6 RPO.

Except hardik. No othe catch were dropped,if one could see. Plus even hardik catch were taken, still india would have reached close to 350 due to kl rahul and other batting pending.
Aussie batting is not bad but india bowling is
really something these days.

You take 3 best players out cheaply of any team and other team will win. So it's not a big brainer.
 
I hope these Australians are as generous with their fielding in the next game
 
The runs can be chased on what is a good batting track. It's gonna be a close one, Aussies need to preserve their wickets that will be the key so a successful chase! C'mon Aussies!
 
India were in a strong position on a slow pitch when he came on to bat and nearly got out on 1st ball. Shankar will get his chance.

His job is to finish the innings lol. The top 3 did their job and he did his.

Shankar may get his chance but it wont be in place of Hardik..

Shankar highest score in 9 games is 46. Talking as if he is a world beater. :))
 
Kohli is still not at his best. only 50% i would say. Usually the cover drives , on drives, straight drives, flicks zings off the bat in the gap. Wasn't happening most of the time.
 
The key will be 23-25 overs of spin. Australia can chase 350, but they’ll have to counter spin pair and no dew this time.

Yeah. Under lights in Mohali, batting became easier. This time chase won't be as easy as that.
 
Good batting.. Happy with the score..

Time to defend the total.

Win + good run rate will be double happiness
 
Harsha Bhogle has such a punchable face. Such an annoying commentator.
 
2003: Australia became the first team to score over 350 against India in World Cup history.

2019: India becomes the first team to score over 350 against Australia in World Cup history.
 
Hafeez, ROot were not dropped? The way Rahul smashed the three balls, he probably would have scored quicker.

Smashed?

First ball edged
Second ball tried hard to hit, but reached the fielder
third ball, hoick towards the midwicket
 
2003: Australia became the first team to score over 350 against India in World Cup history.

2019: India becomes the first team to score over 350 against Australia in World Cup history.

It might turn to this:

2003: Australia became the first team to score over 350 against India in World Cup history.

2019: Australia becomes the first team to chase over 350 World Cup history.


:vk

Possibility as like you said in Asia Cup if Pak lost to India I'll leave this forum .
 
You're part of the 0.1%

And what percentage do you ( one person ) make out of the billion Indians? not much right? 0.1% of Indias population is still a huge 1.2 million people, if anything, I am only overestimating the number of Indians rooting for Pakistan team.
 
If warner plays like he did in that odi series in South Africa a few years ago then Australia will win

sorry this was for xbronze
 
A video has surfaced on twitter showing a man wrapped in Indian flag urinating in the ground. It has gone viral with people asking authorities to catch him.

That's ok. Post 2013 Ashes test at Oval, English players urinated on the pitch :afridi
Something in the Oval air, and plenty of drinks I am sure :viru

Dhoni did a better job than him today. Don't you think? And you wanted Pant over him in this world cup. :inti

I don't have an issue with Dhoni playing. But Pant is a better option than Karthik and Jahdav.


I knew Dhoni would play at the WC. I never called for him to be dropped. That was your own fans.
 
I believe this has happened 3 or 4 times already in this tournament . . ICC really needs to look into this!
