I will say this: getting to the final already is well above what I thought this team could achieve this WC. Credit to Cummins and co for cobbling a campaign together given how ramshackle it looked at the start. India are the far better team on paper but finals can be funny things.

Fair enough that Head was man of the match, but the player who exceeded their form-line by the biggest amount was clearly Starc. Absolutely ruthless bowling after spraying it all tournament and set the tone. Australia also couldn't have won without him.

That top 3 change pretty much changed Australia’s hopes and many people didn’t like Marsh at 3 over smith. Zampa and Cummins have been bowling better as well

U can’t count how many times the keeper and bowlers runs have helped Australia win tight games the last few years
The great sides and nations get it done. They just know how to win.

Losing a semi final like in 2019 is a ****ing disgrace for australia at a world cup, whereas for other countries just getting there is an achievement. that’s the difference. It’s why we will waltz our way to the title on Sunday. It’ll be so easy the players will perform the second half of the game using interpretive dance for shits and giggles as they smash a hapless home side who will be like deers in the headlights.

My brother in christ. You need to stop seeing the world in black and white, lol. De kock had a bad game. Quote me the post where I said bavuma's captaincy was good throughout the game, or when I said he's been fantastic this WC or this semi.
