Oh no Indian fans will be sad if India loses, how dare theyI couldn't give a **** about this game because the winner is playing for second anyway and will lose the final to a rampant Australian side. If I have to choose, I would like India to lose though because their fans are the ****ing pits and the idea of 1.4 billion Indian tears of sadness and frustration just appeals to me, as it does any decent person.
Pitch talk is always crap. It's like your posts - mindless crap just there to pass the time before important things happenWhy are we so sure it’s fake news? That latest article seems to have more details in terms of which pitches were used etc. I’d wait for more details before dismissing anything. Best guess atm is it’s some half truth where the pitches were swapped but not for nefarious reasons.
They're there to ensure the local country has no influence. Which they are now being accused of.pitch is always prepared by local curators . ICC is there to ensure that it isn’t a dust bowl or green mamba .
Why do you think all the pitches on which England played became flat after they lost to SL in 2019 WC in group stage ? The only non-flat pitch they got was in finals.
Of course they can be sad. They're well within their rights to be and you'd expect people who are passionate about it to be sad. Good on 'em.Oh no Indian fans will be sad if India loses, how dare they
Mumbai Indians Kiwis, for what it’s worth.NZ awarded 30 penalty runs and ownership of the Mumbai IPL team, henceforth known as the Mumbai Kiwis
Ahhhh, good to know.We have to reserve passion for stuff that 'matters'? Boring.
I know. It's pathetic how worked up the host nation's fans are getting. Sad.As a West Indian looking in,

No, it isn’t a neutral pitch if NZ didn’t even bother to pick spinner in WTC final.It is balantly favouring one sideYes...yes they did get neutral pitches. Pitches suiting our strengths more, such as they did in 19 and 21 in England, suggests nothing.
If this accusation is true, I can't see how you can play it down by suggestions that tournaments in England suited us better. That's pretty scurrilous
That 35 helped India win the final.
Our spinners suck OPNo, it isn’t a neutral pitch if NZ didn’t even bother to pick spinner in WTC final.It is balantly favouring one side
No, it didn’t . Kohli has been a massive failure in ODI WC knockouts. No need to sugarcoat it .That 35 helped India win the final.
Of course it was a neutral pitch. it was in a neutral country.No, it isn’t a neutral pitch if NZ didn’t even bother to pick spinner in WTC final.It is balantly favouring one side
C0ckiness can get one so far.I know. It's pathetic how worked up the host nation's fans are getting. Sad.
Then you shouldn’t play WTC final . Should have forfeited .Our spinners suck OP
Spin isn't real. Also we won.Then you shouldn’t play WTC final . Should have forfeited .
I know. You'd think they would have learned after 2015 and 2019 semi finals. Or the last two WTC finals. Or the 2014 T20 WC final. Or even after watching England in the most recent Ashes. Hubris is never a good look and it invites failure.C0ckiness can get one so far.
YesWhat is damning ?
Did India get a neutral pitch for WC 2019 SF , WTC Final 2021 and WTC Final 2023 ?
