How good was Piyush Chawla today. For a guy just playing today after being on the sidelines for the whole series, that effort with the ball was awesome. What a terrific catch as well. He has to play for India more.

He seems to have a lot more to him than the last time I saw him.

Sachin & Uthappa to open. Given Sachin's recent record in chasing, and Uthappa's recent record at the top order - anything more than 10/2 after 4 overs would be a bonus. Worth Sachin opening with Pathan or Praveen, leaves Uthappa at #7 where he is quite valuable.

240 is more than enough.

Australia to win comfortably.

We'll get an early wicket as always, and then swarm like a pack of wild dogs.

India, predictably, to be 4 for 60.

All out for 190.

I disagree completely. India to win comfortably. Gambhir and Dhoni have been in terrific form and Tendulkar also played wonderfully in his last game.
At the moment, I'd say it's about 50-50. There's not going to be anything comfortable about this innings. We have a real match on our hands.

Australia, especially in finals, are masters at getting an early wicket and then just swarming all over the opposition. It's amazing how good they are it. They will suffocate the Indians in this.

True that. My post was a hasty and emotive reply to howardj's awful opinion of the Indian batting. That being said I have a feeling that our top order will be a little more assured than in past matches.

Yeah, was excellent looking at him bowl. Given that leg spin is the art I enjoy most, was a pleasure watching him bowl.

Don't think either side will win easily tbh, India to just get across the line for mine.

Odds:

Aus 1.57
Ind 2.25

All good, mate. I wasn't really aiming that at you; it was towards howardj as well. :)

I just don't think it will be easy going for either side.
