Remember, this is the 1st time India is playing batting first on a worn out Lucknow pitch. Kohli was looking okay with good strokes until he tried to hit his way through. This will help him visualize or prepare for an early wicket scenario in knock out. Iyyer is a weak link. Gill too is not contributing. So team management needs to address both the issues. Out of Iyer/Surya put in whoever performs better once Pandya comes back. Gill hopefully should come good. Apart from today's dismissal, all were trying to accelerate. Link to comment

Average of 22 is pathetic in the World Cup, no matter how you slice it. Iyer also looks overhyped and a worse player of short ball than even Imam. With Pandya injured, this batting unit is over reliant on Kohli and Rohit, the latter of whom has been a midget in KOs for 15 years now. Is this another heartbreak in KO loading? why doesn't your feckless team never make it to KOs of ODI WC? not enough associate nations for zimbabar and co to score cheap runs and dedicate those knocks to gaza, hezbollah, etc?

sugumarrising Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 We win the knockout or loose it's our problem, Ind, aus, nz & sa are the top teams now, who asked comments from teams who have qualified only 1 semifinal in the last 20 years, first develop your team which is going down & down day every day.

Frustrated Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Ind are the only unbeaten team so far and hv won 6 out of 6 games. Whereas minnow Pak hv won just 2 out of 6 games despite having played so many games at the same venue. On top of that, a d!ckhead from the same minnow land is busy lecturing us about "Heartbreak". No wonder their team is performing just like their sh!t economy. sugumarrising, diga, rollingstoned and 6 others 1 6 2 Link to comment

Actually Eng game India was 100 for 3 from 25 overs. So technically its top order sub par and middle order collapse territory. Link to comment
Vilander Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 131 from 30 overs , when kl rahul skyed it and triggered the rest. Too many skyers from good length balls. Link to comment

Sharjah-Harjah Posted October 29, 2023 Author Share Posted October 29, 2023 10 hours ago, Lord said: Dhoni needed to man up and come up the order. His whole job was to prevent collapses. Dhoni, Bhaji, Yuvraj, Gangully, Raina, Sehwag, and Gambhir. These guys used to save the best for KOs and big moments. If this team fails again in KO, it would be a very disappointing journey for this Indian generation of cricketers. I hope they rise to the occasion, they deserve a title, specially Kohli and Rohit.

Nikhil_cric Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 So good to see Pakistani fans reduced to praying for miracles to ensure PAK somehow sneak through and, if not, hoping for India to crash out in KO's. The natural order of things. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 This is more like a wish thread lol Even with the weaknesses India trounced teams. Imagine wen they come off lol Link to comment

SRT100 Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 For India to lose a final I think we would need a collective failure from all the batsmen. I have much more faith in the bowlers than our batsmen delivering in a big game. Im more worried if Hitman gets out early, Gill, Kohli, Pandya, KL is a brittle middle order. I can see us going with a tuk tuk approach if we bat first in any final. As Hitman will know, runs on the board is more important than putting up an above par score. Link to comment

Yeah that's why I want Iyer to do well in the next few matches as he is a stable guy. Rohit Gill Kohli KL Iyer Pandya Jadeja Ashwin is a decent batting lineup. Link to comment
