"Rachin winning means India win" - fan logic when we beat India

India would be unlucky to lose.

 

[smash84]

India will need to have a very very bad day to get beaten by any team in this tournament. They look almost unbeatable on these wickets and especially with their bowling attack firing all cylinders.

 

[centurymaker]

Bowling attack is covering for some of the flaws in the batting line.

 

[Flem274*]

I can't remember our last underdog win against India tbh. Probs sone random jamodi in India.

 

[centurymaker]

In 2021, it was 3-0 in T20s and 1-0 tests
In 2023, it was 3-0 in ODIs and 2-1 in T20s

so the last win in India was in a T20 game.

Australia winning today doesn't change my statement above btw. Apparently all of the games this week were going to be dead and instead we just had a classic

 

[Aidan11]

Two big talking points in this game and the previous one.

Tomorrow- Netherlands bowl England out for 36.

Come now Gimh, it doesn't matter that the matches were tight thrilling affairs, only that the bigger teams won, it's well known minnows should stay as minnows and not play at the highest table. the biiger teams winning is clear sign the smaller teams should stop all sports altogether.

Judged on the last 30 years of one day cricket, I’m coming to the conclusion a minnow won the 2019 World Cup!!

Well, given that the last world cup ended in a tie, i guess this is correct.

 

[Athlai]

In 2021, it was 3-0 in T20s and 1-0 tests
In 2023, it was 3-0 in ODIs and 2-1 in T20s

so the last win in India was in a T20 game.

Go further back then

 

[Shri]

if pak qualify, they wont be allowed to play semifinal in mumbai

so that game will shift to kolkata probably while aus vs sa will happen in mumbai instead

 

[Victor Ian]

Why would Pakistan not be allowed to play at Mumbai?

 

[Athlai]

All signs point to further NZ heartbreak.


Finals - tied at 50th over
go into 3rd tied super over
4th super over
we score 36 runs off 6 balls
opponent is 0 off first ball, rain falls

Match rained off

NZ lose due to some irritating rule for this unlikely scenario

 

[Athlai]

Why would Pakistan not be allowed to play at Mumbai?

2008 Terror attacks and resulting political fallout
