30k clapping does not sound like that, it's bloody loud I've witnessed it hundreds of times.

in a stadium of 130K people?

And they were literally standing and clapping Head's 100. Again WTF were you watching?

bro the cheers were louder for him getting out with 2 runs needed than him walking off how can you defend this

Well done Australia. Honestly even Burgey didn’t think they were going to win it pre tournament. Absolutely incredible stuff that you just have to credit them for.

That’s for now. I’m off to watch Greta Van Fleet and get drunk. I’ll come up with reasons to discredit this by morning.

I said multiple times Australia would win the WC pre Tournament and during the Tournament.

Execution of skill under pressure shows true skill.

Yeah but its not comparable amount of pressure when its the #1 sport for 1 team and the #2 for another.

I said they did cheer his 100. I know its louder when he gets out. What's the point?

 

[silentstriker]

For those that enjoy the schadenfreude (eg @Burgey), get all the tissues out because I will freely admit I’m so sad that I want to throw up.

I guess what people are suggesting that places like England appreciate visiting player performances more than they are in India

 

[Pup Clarke]

The Grade Cricketer is going to be absolutely obnoxious over this. And I'll love it

Countries like England have caused Indians to be quite wary of visitors tbf

It's not going to happen, but if I were Maxwell or Starc I'd pull the plug on white ball cricket. Would be a great way to bow out

Warner obvs too

 

[Patience and Accuracy+Gut]

Yeah but its not comparable amount of pressure when its the #1 sport for 1 team and the #2 for another.

I would think a team with their home ground, 120k or whatever fans supporting them in the stadium would have more motivation to win rather than Pressure.

India won the Google WC thing though so congrats!!!

Smith may well. Although not sure if its in his personality to, he might be encouraged to focus on tests. I feel as though Maxwell and Starc will play the T20 WC in the Caribbean next year and then be done with LO internationals.

 

[Andy19]

India like South Africa are chokers in Knockout games. however India have actually won 2 world cups unlike SA.

Same old Aussie always winning Championships .

We own India in WC Knockout matches 3 out of 4 matches won.

Australia will win T20 WC next year as well we are unstoppable in major Tournaments.

Australia will become the new T20 Goats!.

Australia best Test team ICC world champions
Australia best ODI team WC Champions
Australia best T20 team soon to be Champions 2024!.

Yeah when you step out but when the first things start to go wrong, its only pressure. Nothing else.

 

[srbhkshk]

Congratulations to Australian fans, deserving winners.

 

[honestbharani]

Hey the Indian Andy has turned out to be a better poster than the Aussie Andy. So #smallwins.

 

[Ashes81]

Why? It was alright

It was pretty poor in that once Labuschagne and Head got in, the result was never really in doubt.

In the end the Aussies won at a canter and the game petered out.

As for the whole tournament, the top 4 was pretty much done and dusted with a few games to spare.

Neither of the semi finals or the final were particulary close games although they had their moments.

 

[TimAngas]

Yeah when you step out but when the first things start to go wrong, its only pressure. Nothing else.

I sensed that the energy in the stadium brought a franticness out of Warner and Marsh that wouldn't have been there otherwise.
