definitely trundler's fault

Saltiest bloke on the forum over the last 2 days and he doesn't even have a horse in the race. Wouldn't have picked it
Nah it isn’t his fault. It is yours.
You are refusing to accept that Aus got slightly lucky in finals regarding pitch conditions.
Whereas I am openly admitting we got luck at Gabba or 2013 CT final .
There is nothing wrong in being lucky.
Rather be a lucky winner rather than unlucky loser .

What does this even mean. Do you know what a sporting contest is?
You are saying this after crying 4 years about 2019 WC final result. You don’t believe sports involves luck .
when 2 equal team participates , winner needs slight luck .

I wasn't aware the final was tied and legitimately would've been decided by a single run

Can someone explain to me how Australia won due to luck when India said they’d have batted first anyway?

I know Sunilz thinks that Rohit may have just been saying that, and am sure captains do sometimes do that for ‘mind game’ reasons, but beyond that?

You're right though if India were luckier and those 10 wickets they lost in the first innings were a bit more fortunate, maybe they'd have won.

The luck extends to Rohit winning the toss, bowling first, his bowlers getting more wickets and his team scoring more runs.

A smidge of luck.

Whatever it takes!!!
Lol what did I lie about? Literally nothing. You've lost it

And you really have to stop calling things "racist" that clearly are not
"The BCCI changed the pitch" They did not. It was done per protocol.

"Eng/Aus dont do it. Ind/Pak does" is racist. And given Spark has said to stop, this will be my last post on the topic. The others I posted before I saw his post. You can continue with any lies and soft-racist BS, just dont be pretend when its called out for what they are.

I actually dont think luck had anything to do with it. Even if Aus had lost the toss, I reckon they read the conditions better than we did and most importanttly, were better prepared for the game than we were.

Nobody said they won because of luck. The point being discussed is whether they had the better conditions or not.

Because in 2nd innings , after 12-13 overs , there was nothing for the bowlers.
now you can say , this has been the case in many games in this ODI WC , but Aus had reverse swing and spin going for them in last 25 over while they bowled but IND had to break the game open in first 12-13 overs because once dew started our spinners became useless.

Note : I have only explained the luck part . In reality Aus bowled extremely well to restrict us to 240 . We needed minimum 290 . So fair play to Aus .

Where is the proof of even a single thing you have said here aside from "I saw someone's whatsapp messages" bs?

And you are the one avoiding it at all costs. Stop projecting.
The direct quotes from the ICC appointed pitch consultant actually.

But I'm sure he just forgot that he asked for the pitch change, or that he'd been notified in due accordance and decided for a lark to express his concern and immediately fly to India.
