Lucky he can keep and no game is do or die for a while, but QDK has looked seriously village so far.

The thing about the bigger grounds is that whenever you check the score, the opposition seems to be way ahead of where you think because they've taken so many twos. It's hard to get a feel for the game so it can get away from you. Bigger grounds might be easier for bowlers -- after all, they could just set their field as if the ground was smaller if they really felt it -- but harder for captains are more infuriating for fielding teams in general.
Yeah.

Its easier then defending on small boundaries where nicks go for 6. The modern day finishers are mostly boundary hunters imo.
Nah it's not. Nicks don't actually go for six, pretty frequently they don't even carry to the cordon. An edge through second slip goes for four regardless of the size of the ground. Yes, on a small ground, you get balls carrying for six that would otherwise have been four or caught, but that applies for both teams and typically doesn't change between innings. The thing that really changes between the first and second innings is the urgency of the batting team, and that's the thing that is really highlighted by a big ground.

Binny vs Mohit - Binny bats better Mohit bowls better? Or is Mohit just Dhoni's favorite?

De Kock is class, I think it's his mental game letting him down at such a big occassion. The guy is barely 20.

Warne and Kumble in commentary have 630 ODI wickets between them, I think that's more than the 22 players on the field combined. lol.
