*Official* World Test Championship Final 2021

[Moss]

Really nice bowling, that. Inswinger early, then the one that goes across.

Incredible how he’s reverted to his older role with success, doing the job that Boult should be.

 

[Gob]

My gf can’t help but burst into giggles everytime she sees one of Wagners “FUUUAAAAHHHHHYEEEAAAAAAHHHHH!!!”Wicket celebrations.

your hand giggles?

stay off the pills bro

 

[BoyBrumby]

Captaining in front of the TV is easy tbf

I somehow manage to be consistently mediocre though.

Not sure it'll worry him, but Che's been on 0 for a fair little while now.

Good stuff from NZ.

 

[Pratters]

Let us call the winner of this match the winner of a test match in england, rather than world champs, thanks.

 

[nzfan]

I guess if we get them under 300 that's a reasonable effort. If India gets 350 they'll reckon they've done well.

 

[BoyBrumby]

That's a shot to open your account, isn't it?

Wouldn't be too gloomy if I were Wagner though; shows Virat's up for a drive if it's there. Just need one to leave him.

 

[nzfan]

Honors even unless we grab one more now.

 

[Athlai]

Southee? Hot and cold
Boult? Mostly off
Jamieson? On the money
CDG? Tight
Wagner? Gold

I love the 5 man, spin is a lie attack

 

[nzfan]

Got to pitch it up to Kohli he smack us around a bit but we can get them driving. Back of a length to him he'll smash it

Pujara would have got off the mark and probably be on 10+ if we went spin.

 

[Athlai]

Haha yeah I love them showing the stat of the Indian bats who are Sobers to Bradman vs Spin and 30-40 vs pace.

And its like yessssss

 

[Pratters]

just because the icc says, doesn't mean winner of this match is the champs. have two belts. one legit and one rebel.

 

[honestbharani]

When you win the toss with this much cloud cover and conditions that favor seamers and you have picked 5 seamers, I think anything over 200 by the opposition is a L. That said, it does not mean 200 is the par score either. But I think that is the way to look at it at this point.

Unification Ladder match?

Exactly - the formula from the 2020 series. Kohli not being able to get going had a huge bearing on a low scoring series.

Nah

Excuses in SO early

 

[Teja.]

1-2 = 60 runs
3-5 = 130 runs
6-8 = 120 runs
9-11 = 20 runs
Extras = 15 runs
Total = 320-340 runs

all going to plan

 

[silentstriker]

Good Morning so far but I was/am hoping for an extremely low scoring game, so we’d have a chance of a result.

That's like saying England weren't deserving winners of the ODI World Cup.

Hmm, actually... scratch that argument.
