afan Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Had it been Shami in the team ,the previous night, would the total to chase been anything lesser? even 10 runs? if so go with Shami..if not, play the same team. Im of the opinion, Shami shud have played the last game...But now lets continue the same team for the final, as Shami will be under scrutiny and more pressure wudnt help the teams cause

velu Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 What should Dhoni do after winning the toss Should ask SL captain to decide whether they want to bat or field , just to troll them. Batting first or fielding first , we are going to thrash the lungans comfortably , quite comfortably . :two_thumbs_up:
CrazyCric Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Sanath insisted Kusal to have a haircut .. and look who is back??? Better ask Venkatesh Prasad or Manoj Prabakar for tips..
fineleg Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Conventional wisdom for Finals: bat first to avoid pressure in Big match. But it negates kohli's batting advtg, since he bats better with target known in 2nd innings. Tough call. Maybe MSD and team should give Kohli a specific target say 165-170 in first inn. to "chase" if we bat first. Ask him to play like 2nd inn, though he clearly is far better chasing than setting target.

cowboysfan Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Bat first,I feel we are in for a very slow track.

thecricketer Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 One good ball can get Virat out, says confident Malinga MIRPUR: Sri Lanka's stand-in captain Lasith Malinga says that Virat Kohli is a great batsman but they have the bowlers who can bowl that one good delivery, which can dismiss even the greatest. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/series-tournament/t20-world-cup-2014/top-stories/One-good-ball-can-get-Virat-out-says-confident-Malinga/articleshow/33294945.cms
vijay50 Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Bat first and give Lankans a bitter pill. They don't like chasing in ICC semifinals or finals. But having won against SA chasing big score, Dhoni will make the mistake and chase again. IF SL wins the toss, they will surely bat first, because they don't have the balls to chase.
