chewy Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 too many of you too cautious, no disrespect to Bangla, it's good team, but this massive pressure game and will come down to experience, and especially the experience in the batting order, India's vast experience will make it easy win over Bangla. Anyways, just show Bangal this.... velu 1 Link to comment

Cricketics Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 How should India approach the finals? We first need to man up and accept that we have to play semi finals and even though Bangladesh has been a traditionally weaker team, it is there in the semi finals against us because they have done well recently and deserve to be acknowledged. They gave us tough time in the last 50 over world cup meeting even though we won in the end easily. Play it safe against Bangla and win comfortably first and then worry about the opposition. It could be either of England or Pakistan as our opponent. Link to comment

Our match against Lanka was pretty much chased down easily. Hence all the worries. Link to comment
Manny_Pacquiao Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 england bowling is trash. they won't threaten india's batsmen. whoever chases will probably win. i'm hoping england collapse against india's spinners, but the wicket will probably be too flat for that to happen. velu 1 Link to comment

You can bet that nobody will be able to turn the ball if its India England in the final. The amount of whining by England players and ex-players about the pitch after the previous CT final was laughable. Link to comment

I like our chances against England - assuming its an India-England final. Link to comment

And our spinners won't be nearly as effective as they were back home. England will make damn sure of that. England have played all their games on batting tracks. Why do you think India played warm-up games on tracks where 200 was par? Even NZ couldn't put up a decent score against us. Although NZ brought a real crap batting unit to the CT this year, but still. None of this will matter as long as India plays up to 80% of its ability. Link to comment
bleaf27 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I think chasing is India's strength and from the looks of this CT with Rain always in play - the goal if we were to win the toss would be to chase. Very Unlikely a team batting first against India would set a big total and even if India is chasing 300 we can back ourselves to win it. However, setting a total in England is always problematic because the pitches behave very differently throughout the game and with rain and stupid D/L , it becomes much harder when overs are cut and a team is chasing 170 in 30 overs batting second due to D/L.
