2nd Semi Final | Ind vs Eng | Adelaide, 10 Nov 2022

[Athlai]

@Hurricane2 predictions please

 

[Athlai]

Can he go better than 2 runs off the total

 

[girish117]

What?

surya is the only guy who plays pure t20 (think strike rate) no matter how bad the situation is. maybe pant too.(obviously surya is timing everything to perfection and his field read is next level unlike pant who swats at everything). when i pointed out kohli i was suggesting that he is not the kind of lad who can go all guns blazing. he strikes at less than 100 and then accelerates to an extent. he is not a glenn philips or alex hales. he needs someone else to do the "aim for the sky every ball". he plays ODI in a t20 with a better strike rate. so if surya fails, kohli might get us to 150 or so which might not be enough. India has always been a momentum based team. if the openers score then we get a really good score as the rest of the team somehow magically bats well, if they dont then it feels like we are always going to get a below par score.

bhuvi and arsh are going to provide messy figures.

Last T20 series between these sides Bhuvi took about a million wickets in every power play.

Massive concerns about Rohit and KL at the top off the order i would prefer them to go into attack mode to put off the England fast medium bowlers

 

[Burgey]

Rahul's had a good tournament hasn't he? Rohit's been junk, but if you keep hitting flat pull shots in the air to deep square on 70-80 metre boundaries, as is his wont, you'll get found out

He been playing pull shot since he started his career it tough to leave one of your run making shots behind

 

[Burgey]

He just needs to play it better on bigger grounds. He got caught two or three times last test series here when he was set, too.

 

[Sunil1z]

I think IND should chase in this match if they win toss. While batting 1st , team would be under pressure to get atleast 180.

As he always does, Rahul I think just made merry against the weak teams.

As he always does, Rohit continues to be **** in t20.

 

[slippy888]

170 is par score at Adelaide

Yeah, not really encouraging to realise that we are relying on two batters to do the job for us all the time.

That's all you need to have a good game tbh

 

[anil1405]

Yeah, fair enough. It's just that we've been relying on same two batters to do the job this tournament.

Having said that there is no clear favourite to lift the trophy. So that should ease the burden a bit and it's not like England are way ahead of India on paper.

When have favourites ever won a T20 WC ?
Can’t remember any.

 

[cnerd123]

If Wood is really injured and not going to play then this game suddenly got a whole lot more even

 

[Prince EWS]

I'm pretty sure he'll play tbh.

Not confident in Salt on Aussie decks though, even though this is a used pitch. He struggled in the BBL so I think it's a serious downgrade from Malan.

 

[ashley bach]

This match between Germany and Russia should be a beauty.

That's quite true!

 

[White Ball]

Woods set to miss out! Huge blow for England
