And 58/0 inside 6JimD666 said:It's looking a little worrisome for New Zealand at the moment. India going along nicely. 38 runs from the first 4 overs
The world cup seems like a bit of a foregone conclusion doesn't it.0 -
It does a little. Feels like Australia would be the only team that may give them a run for their money.bobmcstuff said:

Just not been enough close games this WC.0 -
Bit of luck for New Zealand. Gill retired hurt.
Oh and Sir Viv Richards on TMS has made my morning.0 -
275/1 after 38 overs... could be well over 400.0

Kohli's vanity slowing the rate again0

Good stand here so fat (touch wood). Still seems rather implausible!0

SA Vs Aus is shaping up to being a very different game than yesterday's semi.
SA won the toss at least and chose to bat (thankfully) 2-1 after 2 overs. Looks like a bit more in it for the bowlers0 -
SA super slow start... mental this. 10/2 after 7 overs, this is like a very slow test match!0
-
SA and semi finals.... My oh my. 3 down. To early to say "chokers"?0
-
To early I asked? Probably not. 4 down0
-
They were chokers before the game stated and have only confirmed their status0
-
SA will be hoping for two solid days of rain now.0
-
These spinners are making it look like a good match here. Ball really gripping.0
-
Love a tense low scoring game

3 runs an over needed - I know, let's have a wild swish at the spinning ball0

Not having Shamsi finish his overs has released the pressure a bit. Game's probably over now.0

Total inability to pace an innings at 3 runs an over0 -
I thought Australia are the most likely challengers to India, but it seems like a pretty foregone conclusion now anyway.
I think Australia need to bat first, put on as big a total as possible and hope India hole out chasing the run rate... If India bat first and put on 400 then that's it.0 -
rather than "as big as possible" they will judge what they think they will need. Assuming an average pitch then par would be 300 so I think they would target a target of 350 and I think they will explode trying to achieve that.bobmcstuff said:I thought Australia are the most likely challengers to India, but it seems like a pretty foregone conclusion now anyway.

Give India the problem and target wickets. If I ndia has a weakness it is that they have no all rounder so the tail is long. They also only have 5 bowlers so either try and injure one of them or pray0 -
England being fully represented at the final. Both standing umpires. Illingworth and Kettleborough.
That's something at least 🙃0 -
Ja 6 batters 5 bowlers, nothing fancy.surrey_commuter said:

But yeah that's easier than it sounds, but I agree, they need to get a big total in.
If India bat first I really think it'll be tough. Unless they get early and regular wickets, but I just don't see it without the scoreboard pressure - India haven't done that yet (actually closest was when they played England but we never capitalised).

Well the Aussies have won the toss and have chosen to bowl.0

Don't really understand the logic as there doesn't seem to be a lot in the pitch. They got Gill but Kohli just hit 3 4s in a row 🤷♂️JimD666 said:Well the Aussies have won the toss and have chosen to bowl.

BBC pundits also shocked they chose to bowl I see.0

80/2 off the powerplay...
Good catch by Head.0
