14th Match - India v Australia

[morgieb]

Would need a massive effort to chase this. Most likely we'll see us at 1/90 off 13 or something and then lose a few quick wickets and get out for about 250.

You cant drop Stonis now after his impressive bowling stats today

 

[quincywagstaff]

Masterful ODI batting innings in terms of pacing and momentum.

Ensured they didnt lose wickets early, steady momentum from 15 to 40 and slaughter in the final 10.

Scored at least one boundary in each of the last 10 overs.

Probably the most low-risk 350 score ever.

KL Rahul delivering for India this WC will be yuuuge.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Damn, if Pandya, Dhoni and Rahul can keep doing this, it'd solve India's biggest problem when it comes to batting.

 

[Second Spitter]

Australia scored 359 in the 2003 WC Final, ftr

 

[Spikey]

finch to ton up

 

[mr_mister]

MS Dhoni promoted back up to ATG status after recently being relegated to ATVG tier

Stoinis promoted to ATVG death bowler

 

[slippy888]

Australia are only 2/1 odds to chase 350 score lol they should be at least 6/1

Which begs the question of why the hell Rayudu kept getting games

 

[Burgey]

Stoinis will forever be able to say that he dismissed.both Dhoni and Kohli in the same over in a World Cup.

If he didn’t try to mix things up by bowling short he’d have had solid figures. Suppose that’s why he’s a part timer.

Zampa a big disappointment today. Finch having to get more overs out of the part timers because he was so bad cost Australia plenty.

Yeah that's basically free money for India, we should be 10/1 at best.

Always maintained that Rayudu wasn't cut out for big ticket events. Pant instead of Jadhav IMO and it would be an even more destructive line up.

 

[trundler]

Yes a masterclass in building an innings

 

[Contra]

Also Shikhar Dhawan in ICC events

 

[Shri]

If Bumrah gets Warner/Finch early, this is over.

Chahal should get a few too.

 

[Burgey]

finch to ton up

Expecting his front pad to get nailed 100 times tbh.

Going to be entertaining if they get anywhere close

 

[harsh.ag]

Bit weird to say this, but KL Rahul's performance is the best thing to come out of this innings for India.

 

[trundler]

Part of me thinks Finch/Smith will get a huge daddy hundred. Part of me thinks Indian spinners will roll Aus over.

 

[Contra]

Australia bat deep and its still a reasonably good pitch, fortunately India have the kind of bowlers to exploit the conditions. Bhuvi should be more useful in this match as well with his slower deliveries.
