ICC WORLD CUP 2023 DISCUSSION THREAD!

[synchronym]

India has given Netherlands a target of 410 runs. I think Netherlands will lose today's match by a huge margin.  The 2023 World Cup India team is in great form. Both their batting and bowling are very strong and the way they are playing it looks like India will play the final. Netherlands' current score is 91 for 3 with 21 overs to play. Netherlands' current score looks like they might be able to top 200 runs. 2023 World Cup India is the only team to participate in 8 matches without losing a single match. 2023 World Cup India has been playing with power since the beginning. Team India will definitely do well in their end as well.

India vs Netherlands

India put up a mountain of runs against the Netherlands today. In this World Cup, India scored 400 for the first time, again against Netherlands. All the Indian batsmen who batted today have scored a fifty and two batsmen have scored a century. From the start, India batted very aggressively against Netherlands today and their batting early on looked like they might collect a big one today. With the target that India has given Netherlands, I think Netherlands can lose by 300 runs against India today. 

Netherlands current scored is 115 runs in loss of 4 wickets in 25 overs. Engelbrecht is playing at 28 not out in 42 balls. India top class bowling performance Kuldeep Yadav pick 1 wickets by giving 16 runs in 6 overs and Virat kholi also pick 1 wickets by giving 8 runs in 2 overs. Muhammad Siraj also pick up 1 wickets by giving 24 runs in 4 overs. From Netherlands M. O'Dowd batting well scored 30 runs in 42 balls and C. Ackermann also scored well 35 runs in 32 balls  Netherlands needs 287 runs in 23 over to win this match which seems impossible beacuse they lost top 4 wickets.

After India scored 410 runs against Netherlands I naturally thought maybe India would bowl Netherlands out within 100 runs but Netherlands are a good team and they have proved that they can fight against any team before and also in the second innings against India. Netherlands managed to score 208 runs for 6 wickets after 42 overs. In this situation if Netherlands lose to India then I would like to salute Netherlands as they have performed well throughout the whole tournament of the World Cup. A team like Sri Lanka who were all out for 50 runs against India, a team in South Africa where they were all out before 90 runs, Netherlands scored 205 runs against India, what could be happier news for the Netherlands. It is my wish as a cricket lover that Netherlands should not lose from cricket and that Netherlands should do well in cricket.

Netherlands played very well against India. Despite batting against such a big target, they are performing quite decently. However, the Netherlands had no chance of winning. Even then they managed to narrow the margin of defeat. Netherlands collected 227 runs in 45 overs losing 8 wickets. I would say it will be a big achievement for Netherlands if they don't lose all the wickets. They scored 227 runs against such a strong bowling line-up of India. I thought the team would lose all wickets before 150. Because we saw the Sri Lankan team batting against India with a target of 358 runs, Sri Lanka finished their innings for just 55 runs. Compared to Sri Lanka's performance, the Netherlands boys are playing brilliantly today.

If we think a little with the performance of the Sri Lanka match that happened a few days ago, then we can easily understand that compared to that, Netherlands scored quite well. Scoring 250 against India is not a easy task. Especially for this season. If they collect 100 with the great bowlers India have, you'd think they're OK according to their position, but when they make 250, the team is certainly not bad. Congratulations to the Netherlands team in this tournament because despite being a weak team in cricket, they played a very professional game. I never thought that Netherlands would beat India. Because where the big and powerful teams are being defeated again and again, many people think that the main thing is not to win but to compete.

Yes ,you are right . Netherland played excellent in this tournament and they gave tough time to big teams . Netherland  took win against South Africa . South Africa is top class team which  gave a target s of 400+ runs in this team . Netherland won the match against South Africa and that was an excellent victory. Netherland cricket is improving and coming to the front, Netherland team should work on their weaknesses .
 
I knew India will win this match but I did not expect this type of match ,they fought well till at the end .Indian team already qualified for Semi final and it will play against New Zealand that is best team that played last World Cup final against England but lose the World cup due to luck.New Zealand always reached in semi final or final . I want ,New Zealand should win this World Cup because India also  have won the World Cups . And Cup should be in different hands ,I know  New Zealand team is hard working and it can win this World Cup .

Many people think today game was the one side game,but the Netherland game was good today.Because the team England had scored just 129 runs against the team India,but the Netherland had made the 250 round against the team India.So the Netherlands game should be appreciated today,even though Netherlands out of the semi finals already made the good knock now and in the World Cup.Their old history in the World Cup was rewrite by the current Netherlands team,if they played the responsible before game may help the Netherland atleast 4 position to the semi finals.

Yes ,you are right . Netherland played excellent in this tournament and they gave tough time to big teams.

99.9% of people may have been India supporters yesterday but a scene after the end of the match caught everyone's attention. When the Dutch batsmen were all out, all the other Dutch players and coaching staff entered the field and at that time the Indian fans gave them a standing ovation to show their respect and love, which I personally liked a lot. The Netherlands did not lose anything in this World Cup tournament, but the Netherlands achieved the most in this World Cup tournament, that's why they had a great smile on their faces at the end of the match and they left this World Cup tournament happy. Let teams like Netherlands come to cricket and participate in big tournaments because when teams like Netherlands perform like this in big tournaments of world cricket, the beauty of cricket increases.

Don’t compare Netherlands with England dude. Pitch, Stadium and playing conditions also affect a lot in the game’s result. Yesterday the match was at Bengaluru, which is a batting pitch, hence it helped the batter to score the runs. But in case of England’s match, the pitch wasn’t so batting friendly. So it’s really a waste of time if we compare on the basis of runs scored.

We need to appreciate the Indian Top order, especially KL Rahul, for his quick 100, they did good while batting first, and many Indian fans were expecting for them to cross 400 runs. Now this form is required for the Semi Final against NZ. So let’s hope for the best.

The Indian batsmen displayed their prowess as Shubman Gill 51 and Rohit Sharma 61 for 54 provided a excellent start, setting the tone for a formidable total. Shreyas and Rahul then built a remarkable 208-run partnership, with contributions from Virat Kohli and others scored cross to 400. The Netherlands bowlers struggled to get wickets and put pressure on India, despite some resistance, they were left with a challenging target of 411. India is on top of point table with 18 points while Netherlands is on No 10th on points table with 4 points.

I just hope that the Indian batsmen will perform similarly while facing New Zealand bowlers during the semi-final and also during the final match when they face Australian/South African bowlers (in case they win the semis). Scoring 400+ against Netherlands doesn't matter, since India is playing at home and also due to the fact that the Dutch bowlers have been horribly out of form during the last few weeks. I am disappointed with the fact that India didn't gave any chances to the bench players. It will be a big insult for Ravichandran Ashwin, to not to play a single match in this world cup.

After defeating the Netherlands by a huge margin of 160 runs, India is at number one in the points table. Team India has won nine out of nine matches and topped the points table with eighteen points. From the Asia Cup to the World Cup, India has been in great form. 2023 World Cup The way the Indian team is performing, their final match is pretty much assured. It is not unusual for the Netherlands to score 410 runs with them being a weak team. As a weak side, Netherlands played fairly well against India as they tried to play 50 overs. The Netherlands will do better in the future.

Yesterday, Shami didnt get a single wicket, looking at Dutch side I was looking for another fiver, dutches played well tho specially in the start of their inning against pacers, then spinners came and ruined their fun.

I am disappointed with the fact that India didn't gave any chances to the bench players. It will be a big insult for Ravichandran Ashwin, to not to play a single match in this world cup.

May be not to lose their rhythm with current playing 11. Who would have been sat on bench for Ashwin to come in anyway?

Ordinary bowling from the Dutch bowlers. They were all over the pitch and hadn't executed their plan well. The first semi-final between India and New Zealand will be a thriller; if India gets the wickets of Ravindra and Williamson in the first powerplay, things will get difficult for New Zealand. On the other hand, if India loses Sharma and Kohli early in the innings, they might get into trouble as well. Both teams are in great touch and well-balanced. Fingers crossed for a thriller.

I am disappointed with the fact that India didn't gave any chances to the bench players. It will be a big insult for Ravichandran Ashwin, to not to play a single match in this world cup.

I think the team management did not want to disturb the team combination and rhythm of the players right before the semi-final.

. I am disappointed with the fact that India didn't gave any chances to the bench players. It will be a big insult for Ravichandran Ashwin, to not to play a single match in this world cup.

I am Ashwin's fan and at times biased in favor of him but the World Cup is not about individuals, it's about the team and winning combination.

To start with he wasn't the first choice spinner for the team despite being good cricketer because India has a fair amount of spin all rounder. He only got an opportunity because Axar got injured. Also, Ash did play the match against Australia and did a good job but we have to understand team combination is also necessary.

Yes bro Ravichandran Ashwin is a great spin bowler and sometimes he can bat well that I have seen in different games.
I think India has done the right thing if they have given Ravichandar Ashwin a chance in the XI because he is very experienced.In the World Cup, experience is evaluated as well as performance.

[pakhitheboss]

I was surprised to see that Rohit Sharma agreed to crowds demand and gave Kohli an over to bowl. What impressed me that he got a wicket in that over. This team is enjoying the game and doesn't looks like playing.

Rahul was outstanding yesterday, getting a century in 62 balls is unbelievable batting. Shreyas was at his best again and the team looks good for the match on 15th. New Zealand have the ability to play very well in ICC tournament. They do have some of the best batter and bowlers in their team.

I am hoping to see a game of cricket where not one team dominates the whole game. India has dominated all thier nine games till now. They need an opponent who can challenge them for once in the tournament. I hope the Kiwis would be that team.

[Essential10]

It looks like the World Cup tournament has almost come to an end. Only three more matches to decide who will win the World Cup. India, who are unbeaten so far in this tournament, will face New Zealand in the first semi-final, who have been runners-up for the last two times. India are such a team now that it becomes very difficult to analyze them. On the other hand, South Africa will face Australia in the second semi-final. Australia's performance started off slow at the start of the group stage, but they turned around later. South Africa has shown a very good batting performance in this tournament. The two semi-final games are going to be very crowded. Just one more week to decide who will be the champion.

India bowled to their liking, setting the Netherlands a target of 410 runs. India bowled to their heart's content as the Netherlands were a weak side. The Indian team knew that it was not possible for the Netherlands to get past the target of 410 runs. So everyone bowled together, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli bowled. If India was playing against a strong team, Rohit Sharma would never have bowled or even bowled Virat Kohli.

No other team is in great form like India. New Zealand, South Africa and Australia have played quite well. However, their performance was somewhat erratic. South Africa has batted brilliantly in this World Cup. Even then this team lost against India by a huge margin of 243 runs. India defeated a strong team like Australia very easily. India's most competitive match in this World Cup was against New Zealand. New Zealand set a target of just 274 runs in this match. It was not easy for India to collect 274 runs even though the target was low. India reached the target of victory in 48 overs losing 6 wickets. But in the semi-final match, India will probably dominate and win against New Zealand.
