vvvslaxman Posted January 1, 2022 Author Posted January 1, 2022 As the article says Australia should have been in the final but for docking of 4 points for slow over-rate. This could very well happen to us. India has to stop wasting time in slowly setting fields. Even reviews have to be judiciously taken.

cowboysfan Posted January 2, 2022 Posted January 2, 2022 not the first time this has happened,i think they should ban the captain rather than docking points because he is the main culprit . nevada and SRT100 1 1

Clarke Posted January 2, 2022 Posted January 2, 2022 (edited) Being clinically efficient between deliveries and overs requires a lot of focus and teamwork. One can't afford to wind down for 20 seconds coz it all adds up. Lets see if Dravid can instill that discipline, coz Shastri sure didn't. Edited January 2, 2022 by Clarke
Lone Wolf Posted January 2, 2022 Posted January 2, 2022 Playing an All pace attack at Joburg will probably push it more. It doesn't matters to Saffers as they don't have a shot at final. So they don't give a f**. England & India seems like prime offenders in this cycle.
ravishingravi Posted January 2, 2022 Posted January 2, 2022 With Kohli as captain, not reaching WTC final can be blessing in disguise.

Thats where we actually lost the match. 40 runs more and a bit of sensible batting and we would have won it actually
helperononline Posted January 2, 2022 Posted January 2, 2022 The question how did SA manage over rate better than us ? They are playing four fast bowler and one spinners just like us but still they managed to maintain over rate.
