Pakistan have failed to make the 338 in 6.2 overs.
So India vs NZ

Definitely wish India’s final was at Eden Gardens. Chasing in Mumbai can be tough early on.

Early money line has NZ at +210. Interesting.
Oh wow! What a comparison, its so recent.
Current form shouldn't be considered?

It's strange that this final is on Wednesday when India are playing tomorrow and will have a much shorter break than us, it might give us an advantage.
Maybe when they drew up the fixture they didn't expect India to finish first, they still have the luxury of resting their important players tomorrow though

No . Match practice is any day better than net practice minus injury.
Long breaks are not always good....
India will be more match ready than NZ

For the batsmen maybe but not so much for the bowlers, if I was India I would probably be resting Bumrah at least, they can't afford an injury to him.

Whatever it takes!!!
Bengaluru to Mumbai is not that long a flight and actually, Bengaluru ground is closest to Mumbai ground IMO of all the Indian grounds given the dimensions and the overhead conditions.
And Mohammed shami too .. he sat out 4 games and still came back with full rhythm, show how prepared he was. I don't think resting him this game will have impact on his rhythm.

With a bowling action like Shami's, it's hard to go out of
Lmao there's not much advantage for India playing in home tracks, their pace bowling attack is doing the most damage and it seems to be best in the world rn with the control of line and length and seam and swing variety of bowlers
After that comes 2 quality spinners which have good variations and bowl good lengths

Not that bad a turnaround tbh. Tuesday would be

If NZ beats India in the semis, why will India get to play in the final?
Amazing post. He's picking New Zealand to beat India, then India to somehow make the final. After the fiasco of the 2019 final, imagine how aggrieved we'll feel when that happens.
Then he says India are home track bullies who can't win major tournaments even in India, even though they won the last World Cup that was held in India.
