The FINAL- South Africa vs India (D), Kensington Oval, Barbados-- June 29th

[SillyCowCorner1]

After 54 matches, we have made it to the final at cricket’s Mecca in the region.

Undefeated South Africa takes on tournament favorites, India.

 

[ankitj]

Just the final I wanted. I'm practically a neutral for this match.

 

[Dissector]

Battle of the Chokers aka the two best teams in the tournament. Should be a fascinating final with euphoria and relief for the winner and an extra dose of despair for the loser.

 

[Dissector]

Oh I hope Kohli gets his head straight for the final. He looked awfully jumpy, looking for a big hit practically every ball. I have a feeling India will need a top knock by him to counter SA's pace attack.

 

[MW1304]

Carn SA. It's your time.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Is this the first time a final is being contested between two unbeaten sides?

 

[Gob]

Time to crown a new father for India now that t head won't be playing here

 

[Gob]

Is this the first time a final is being contested between two unbeaten sides?

Yes

Yes

What's the point of Dube here? Bloke doesn't do much does he? I mean if you can't perform against England, there aren't many other teams that you would

Would India have the guts to bring in Jaiswal over Dube? We'll see

 

[ashley bach]

Think India might show some balls and ditch Dube for the final.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

C'mon Saffas - you might have 2 undeserved Rugby World Cups (95 - food poisoning & 23 -refereeing) but I really hope you get the win. Also, justifies sending the C test team to NZ and concentrating on your T20 league & finances.

I see Markram is unbeaten as captain in World Cups (including U19s). I hope he can maintain that.

 

[Gob]

Rohit
Jaiswal
Kohli
Pants
Surya kumar
Hardik
Jadeja

What's wrong with the above side?

 

[ashley bach]

Rohit
Jaiswal
Kohli
Pants
Surya kumar
Hardik
Jadeja

What's wrong with the above side?

Good but sack Jadeja

 

[Daemon]

Kohli and Pant looking terrible means they may consider dropping Dube and bringing Jaiswal in to get off go better starts. Then push everyone down one.

That would be admitting they were wrong though so unlikely.

 

[ankitj]

Rohit
Jaiswal
Kohli
Pants
Surya kumar
Hardik
Jadeja

What's wrong with the above side?

Axar > Jadeja

 

[Arachnodouche]

They have promoted Pandya, Jadeja, and Axar over Dube at various points this tournament. What even is his point besides persisting in a failed punt like a donkey? Freakin Dravid, redeem yourself before leaving.

Yeah especially after such a big win.

I am a little worried for India , Rohit has been gun but due to the nature of this format he is due a failure and Kohli is in poor form.
I'd like Jaiswal to come in , but I don't think they will switch it up to accommodate him so I suppose Samson over Dube will have to do.

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Still a bit gutted it's not England, but legit this is a very hype final.

Bumrah vs Rabada
QdK vs Rohit
Kuldeep vs Shamsi
Klassen vs SKY
Dube vs Reeza

Big time.

 

[ashley bach]

Yeah especially after a golden duck on top of an already large pile of ****.

Agree with this totally.
