Oh please. Let's keep it real. There is no disgrace in losing a tightly fought game. There is disgrace in losing a one-sided game at home after dominating a tournament. We were all expecting, minimum, India to be ultra competitive.

There is some shame in this final performance, particularly in the bowling. They were the best tournament bowling unit arguably in cricket history and then mysteriously all five bowlers have an off day on the final?

They bottled it and deserve some flack for that.
Nah, not having it. I've turned face to defend India from...er...the Indians.

Nuts, really, that Australia won this thing with only one guy - Head - you could say was at the peak of his powers and world class. Carrying a non-functioning WK-bat, huge inconsistency from their top order, two guys who averaged under 30 with the ball, losing their opening two games convincingly, the close-run thing with Afghanistan etc. They truly did put in the individual performances where required, especially in the final.

Rahul's inning was just puzzling after his aggression in the semis. SKY is an all-time loser glad he is 33 already and hope to never see him in international cricket. 47/3 was made for Marnus. And Pant would have been handy.

No I think you are assessing this wrong. You just don’t simply win the WC like that.

A bit of reverse ended up really putting India on the backfoot and exposing the major weakness of their tail.

Wish there had been more matches like this throughout the world cup honestly

Magnificent victory against corruption in the world, the game and the governance of both.

BCCI can pay the bookies, BCCI can pay the umpires, BCCI can pay the Indian players to fix a win but still can't beat Australia. Hope all the Modi and Kohli simps are stewing in their own juices until Christmas.

Also King Kohli proved again he's only king of the group stage. Good laughs at some posters saying 'He has a 50 in a final now, he's elite!'

Kohli has 2 ICC medal. So it is not like he was like Devilliers or Ambrose 2 gold Tier ATG without any medals to show .
Man's in such a drought he'll have to sell the medals for fakes just to make ends meet hahahahaha
