Only to end up seeing our team nearly losing to Afghan, of all teams. One should be ready for such games, England lost to SL last wc Gollum and Frustrated 2 Link to comment

AuxiliA Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Great Thread! ICF had turned into a wrist slitters' club over the last year or so. This WC will be the end of an era for Indian cricket. Hope it ends well for us. We have the team to win it and conditions are also in our favour, just need some luck at the knockout stage.

Laaloo Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 So out of 9 matches we need to win 6 right? Link to comment

Norman Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 46 minutes ago, Laaloo said: So out of 9 matches we need to win 6 right? Yup. Win against Netherlands, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan And Win two out of three against South Africa/New Zealand / Pakistan which is entirely doable. And then the games against Aus/Eng are just bonuses. Link to comment
rageaddict Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 (edited) There are 4 Semi Slots and atleast 6 contenders. England, Australia, SA, NZ, India and Pakistan. SL might be another contender if they find some form so I don't think it will be too straightforward. Have to start well, lose first two games against Australia and Pakistan what hope will be left then ? Edited September 29, 2023 by rageaddict Link to comment

I mean Jadeja smashes 40 off 25 balls and takes 2 wickets in the middle overs every match and makes me eat my words. And Shardul will turn into a monster death bowler and hits 25 runs at #8 of 15 balls . Hardik to bowl all 10 every match as well. And what about batters? Scorecard like this:- Rohit 5(18) Gill 1(3) Kohli 14(16) Iyer 9(6) Rahul 4(21) Link to comment
Laaloo Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Any chance one of Rohit, kohli or Iyer roll over their arm in the warm up match? Link to comment

Koli, Iyer and KL are capable of going tuk tuk all the way till the 45th over and feel like they have done their job, which is why its important to not play this trio. Too much of sameness, similarly Gill too has the capacity to go tuk tuk. test fan 1 Link to comment

Should be winning against them if we need to have a chance in KO, one of the telltale signs of the last campaign was how daftly they gave up chasing vs Eng on that belter in 2019 WC, when you throw away your weapons so easily you're just a quitter & you could argue the same vs Oz in 2015 SF!
