*Official* World Test Championship Final 2021

[Magrat Garlick]

Lol no. Or else I’d have won BOTM by now

it's cos you and flem keep splitting the vote

Kohli's head position immaculate so far because of no tapping. He's super still at the crease and will be judging the lines real well. Not good for us I guess.

Was that guy in the crowd wearing a BoJo mask?

Pretty sure that's BoJo

Hmm don't really agree with the CDG rationale after lunch here. Yes he got him out once last time. So did Jamieson, so have Boult and Southee at other times. Get Jamieson on.

It's odd, isn't it? Sure, bring him on if the others have failed but surely you back your gun bowlers, one of whom averages about 15 and destroyed India in his debut series

Hendrix black voodoo counter jinxing CDG to take out Kohli here.

Nah. Just think Latham is a better captain than Kane.

 

[Pratters]

No that’s exactly how it works.

No that is just a gimmick. The test champ is the one which is the best team like aus in 1995 wi 1975-95 , aus later. A match cant tell you the test champion even if icc calls it that.

CDG running in like a Game of Thrones extra. Feel like a wicket soon.

 

[honestbharani]

It is the answer to all things.

No, this is.

But there is context. It's not about a single match. Both teams had to put in a lot of hard yards to get into this final. And when one of them wins, they will rightly be the world champions.

Ok well NZ is ranked number 1 so I guess we're the best test team.

He's been pretty close to getting him out.

Kolkata

Ok then.

Yep that makes far more sense.

I see it like a football Champions League Final. The winner is not necessarily the most accurate gauge of the best team in the world but it’s prestigious for teams and incredibly fun for fans regardless.

in that case all sporting tournaments are gimmicks and don’t matter. Sure man. Whatever you want to go with.

CDG's selection justified just to bowl to Virat?
