***Official***THE FINAL- India vs Australia - November 19th - Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad (D/N)

Kuldeep is not even looking at SKY, who is motioning to send him back, when he takes these singles.

Yeah that first run alone makes it clear that it's just Kuldeep kind of with his head in the clouds

Too busy thinking about his new jacket

 

[stephen]

Risky shot for a single.

 

[Shady Slim]

brilliant bowling from the cumster
if that's a quicker ball it makes it to the rope but the slower ball doesn't give him the right purchase

 

[OverratedSanity]

Kuldeep is 6(8) Tbf maybe he should face more

 

[honestbharani]

This is on Rohit/Dravid imo. No way is Sky deciding this insane tactic by himself. If he is they’d have surely told Kuldeep to make him see sense before he came in.

They are just taking the runs they can get tbh. Its not a totally stupid strategy given the hole we have dug for ourselves. You never know if these 10-15 runs could end up being the difference.

The other option is to turn down singles and also struggle to find boundaries and have SKY hit himself out. This is perhaps the more sensible option.

 

[GIMH]

Dare I say it but feels quite similar to the 2019 final at this stage

 

[honestbharani]

unironically worse than dhoni in the semi 2015

Same things holding both players back tbh.

 

[Burgey]

How good is that field placement of the really fine third man? Just great awareness. It’s the little things

 

[Aidan11]

Only 2 runs from that over.

Yeah I've been very critical of this team management for not having attention to detail this year but they've got that stuff spot on today.

Aus are going to chase this in about 35 overs mate

 

[Qlder]

Ha ha, Kuldeep has faced 11 of the 13 balls since he came in (for 6 runs) . Excellent

 

[BazBall21]

Legacy performance from Cummins

Ashwin was at 8 then

I'm all seriousness this is likely true.

I just hate his chewing technique. Ruins everything about him.

 

[GIMH]

I reckon I make India slight favourites.

Then Jay Shah is going to be such a good guy and save hundreds of Australian babies from AIDS as a reward

'96 WC final vibes

Cummins has been incredible today. Can see the level of intelligent planning that’s gone behind the scenes.
