ICC WORLD CUP 2023 DISCUSSION THREAD!

[Suzume]

Australia won the toss and decided ball first. Today's exciting match between India and Australia this is the world cup final match and the match of India fans. Although I support Bangladesh but my second supported team in India and hopefully India going to the on this world cup. I think the possible run target could be UpTo 300+ maybe. Hopefully India going to win the match. But if India can do 350+ this could maybe plus point for team India.

In today's game, Australia won the toss and chose to field first and they invited India to bat first.Both the teams are going to play with their unchanged eleven in the final match today. The host India has not lost any match in the current World Cup. On the other hand, the Australian team started their World Cup journey by losing against India in their first match. In the next match against South Africa, the Auji forces lost badly. However, Australia turned around after two losses, the 5-time world champions. After winning eight matches in a row, they face India in the final today.

India and Australia have played 150 matches in the ODI format so far. However, Australia has won the most ODI matches between these two teams. India won by 57th match and Australia won by 83th match when their two teams faced each other. Another 10 matches ended without a result. However, in the pre-World Cup series in India, Rohit Sharma's team won 3, while Pat Cummings' team won 2.

Moreover, both teams have won 33 matches each in the face-to-face match between the two teams in the Indian field. In addition, India-Australia have met a total of 13 times in the ODI World Cup. Whereas India won 5 times and Australia won 8 times.
Australia is ahead of India in statistics today it is to be seen if India can change that statistics and create history

Indian fans used to back the Bangladesh team, after all, who doesn't like the underdog story but everything took a U-turn and they lost respect when a beheaded photo of Dhoni was circulating and some ad agency or fans shared an image of Indian players with half of their heads shaved.

I don't think a whole nation has many things to do regarding this and I don't blame players for that. There are some people who like controversies and they make money from it. Ad agencies do these things to create hype just like Indian ad agencies also did by creating ads like Mauka Mauka. That's a business thing but they should keep themself within a limit.

If you talk about fans, almost every country has some bullshit type of fans who do these things. I do not support it at all. They are not true fans of cricket. They cannot be. If you are a cricket fan, you have to respect your opponent players. This is the only game people consider as a gentleman game.

Then there are players like Mushfiqur Rahim who post cringy stuff when India loses. In any sport decency and sportsmanship are basic for everyone but Bangladeshi players are hardly aware of this concept. The Nidahas trophy is an important example (Nagin dance and vandalizing change room).

As I said, such behaviors from players are not acceptable at all. They are international players and they have to be professional on the field and off the field. I understand that there is a thing called "Hit of the moment". But you have to remember that you are professional. Later Mushfiq deleted the post and apologies for what he did.

If you talk about the Nagin dance thing. I would say that was the hit of the moment. Sri Lankans fueled this. It was Nazmul Hasan Apu who did this Nagin Celebration after taking the wicket. But then Sri Lankans started doing this celebration after they got each wicket and their fans joined the team. It was the home ground of Sri Lanka and most fans are from their country. They were fueling during the whole match and then the Bangladesh team did the dance after the end of the match!

Both teams are ready to fight each other. This fight will be held at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. In this ICC World Cup India was the only single team that wasn't defeated by any team so far they gathered a lot of experience, on how to beat Australia. But Australia isn't a normal team. He knows how to recover their conditions from the worst situations. I hope it will be a contest between each other. Also, it will be the most interesting game for cricket-loving people. Many many congratulations the both teams. Although I'm a supporter of the Australian cricket team. Best of luck Australian Team. Have a good day!

Australia Vs India
After losing the toss and batting, India scored 30 runs for the loss of 1 wicket in 4.4 overs. If Australia can bowl hard at this point and put India under a lot of pressure and get them out before 300 runs, then Australia will have a lot of chances to win the 2023 World Cup. But I think Australia should have won the toss and batted today. Do you think Australia won the toss and bowled the right decision?

The current situation of team India with 80 runs on 2 wickets. If the current run rate maintained then there is a possibility to do 398runs in 50 overs. Hopefully India try to do there best in the final match with Australia. Rohit Sharma try to do his best he done 47 runs in 31 balls. Hope so the other batsman will play good in this match and hope that virat sir will show his best preference in this math.

India loss 3 wickets in just 80 runs in 10.3 overs. Australia great bowling performance they picked back to back wickets of Rohit Sharma and Shreyas Iyer. Rohit Sharma performed well scored 47 runs in 31 balls and Shreyas Iyer did not score well out for just 4 runs in 3 balls. India needed a good partnership to stay in the match because they loss their top 3 wickets in just 11th overs. Maxwell bow well picked the wicket of Rohit Sharma and Pat Cummins Australia captain picked the wicket of Shreyas Iyer by giving only 6 runs in 2 overs. Australia have ability to restricted India under 300 and winning the world cup.

[libert19]

11 overs and India 82 for 3, although they are at good score thanks to Rohit Sharma's aggressive start yet again. Rahul and Kohli at crease now, they'll look for partnership similar to start of tournament against same opponent. Surya will have huge part to play today.

India stumbled first in today's match as they lost their top three batsmen in just 10 overs.India can be said to be on the back foot at the moment.For India to come back in the game, they need to be patient and settle down at the crease and form a good pair at the moment.
Australia's bowling got off to a great start today with Pat Cummings, Mitchell Starc and Glenn Maxwell taking a wicket each.

Shreyash Iyer, one of the best batsmen of the Indian team, performed very poorly today, he was dismissed for just four runs.He had scored back to back centuries in the previous two matches and Indian fans might have expected such an innings from him today but he failed to deliver.

Virat Kohli, one of India's best batsmen, is still batting, and today's match will depend a lot on him.Virat Kohli is the only symbol of hope for the Indian fans now. If Virat Kohli scores a good respectable score today, his team will surely get a fighting score.

Australia won the toss and decided to field. Australia's bowlers have used the decision to field Australia properly. India's first saree batsmen are out. shubman gill rohit sharma shreyas lyer are out. But Rohit Sharma had a great start Rohit Sharma got out with 47 runs off 32 balls.Shubman Gill and shreyas lyer these two players didn't play very well in the final match both got out. shubman gill scored seven runs from four balls and shreyas lyer scored four runs from three balls. India's Virat Kohli and K Rahul should develop a good partnership between these two. Then the Indian team score will be a little bigger. India's current score is 92 for 3 with 13 overs to play. The current state of the game looks like India might score 300 plus runs if Virat Kohli can score a century.

India is under a lot of pressure right now. Batting under pressure, India will never be able to maintain the run rating. And if the run rating cannot be maintained, then India will never be able to score 398 runs. Currently, India's run rate is 6.84, if this run rate is maintained, India's runs will be 344. But I think today India will be all out before 300 runs because Australia's bowling performance looks very good today. If Australia can improve their bowling line-up, they can put India under a lot of pressure to win this 2023 World Cup today.

[jasonjm]

So far, good from Australia. After choosing to field first, they put India under pressure, and they are bowling with a good line and length. Their fielding is also electric today. After being put to bat, India got off to a flyer; Rohit Sharma's quick 47 set the tone for a big target but an excellent comeback from the Australian team. One more wicket here, and things can get ugly for India. Virat Kohli will be the key in this contest. Nice strike rotation from both batters. They are playing sensibly. SKY will be the deciding factor in this contest. He can give India the much-needed push at the end of their innings. Fingers crossed for a thriller.  

[roksana.hee]

India achieved 126 for 3 wickets from 23.3 overs. If Virat plays well to gain his last century in this World Cup. Now the score of Virat is 46 from 50 balls. Virat is the Legendary player all over India. He is the most experienced player and he already got the highest score in this ICC World Cup 2023. Keep it up, Virat.

Although India's run rate in the power play is very good, India has lost top order wickets very quickly. Rohit Sharma was out after collecting 47 runs off 31 balls. He has made an excellent start. But Iyer and Gill did not play well. Both returned to the dressing room collecting only 4 runs. India scored 81 runs in 10.2 overs and lost three wickets. Kohli is batting with responsibility. And Rahul is playing very carefully. India collected 131 runs in 25 overs. Kohli collected 49 runs from 55 balls and Rahul collected only 25 runs from 54 balls. Rahul is batting very slow. Rahul should bat at least 80+ strike rate. KL Rahul's strike rate is below 50.

[jasonjm]

Halfway through the innings, India is 131 at the loss of 3 wickets. A long way to go for these Indian batters. This partnership between Virat and Rahul looks threatening for Australia. If they want to control this match, they have to break this partnership. Virat Kohli scored yet another fifty in this World Cup. India will be looking to continue like this for another 10 overs before they finally change gears. A target somewhere around 300 will be challenging on this slow wicket. A boundary was scored after 16 overs, which shows how good Australia has been with the bowl today.

Australia vs India match has gathered in Ahmedabad. Meanwhile, Australia won the toss and decided to bowl. India went down to bat and scored 80 runs for 2 wickets in the power play. When Rohit Sharma was dismissed for 47 runs off 31 balls, the run rate started to decrease. Virat Kohli and KL Rahul are struggling a lot to take the team to respectable runs. After a last-ball boundary in the tenth over, they managed to hit a boundary in the next 97 balls. Cummins dismissed Virat Kohli in the 29th over to put India under pressure. It has become very difficult for India to score 300+ runs now. Now this match is going in favor of Australia.

[pakhitheboss]

bad start by the Indian team, the situation is not at all looking good. A score of 340 or more would have been a defendable target for India, now a target of 250 looks like a distant dream. Australian bowlers are bowling so well today that they have taken 4 quick wickets and have placed a pause on runs. The current run rate is below 6 and another wicket now will destroy all the hopes of India winning the Cup. India now needs a big partnership from both the batter, they should only concentrate on ones and twos for now.

The Indian team is under a lot of pressure after three of India's key batsmen were dismissed. Especially after Virat Kohli got out, I was really disappointed. Because if Virat Kohli had not got out, the run rate would have increased a bit more. I felt very bad when Virat Kohli got out after scoring 50 runs. I thought if Virat Kohli and K Rahul lead the team India can score 300 runs. With the way Australia are bowling, it looks like it will be very difficult for India to score 300 runs. Even then, if Jadeja and K Rahul can bat well, maybe India can give Australia a target of 300 runs. If Australia can be given a target of 300 then India have some great bowling and maybe the match can be in India's hands. Now let's see how many runs India can give to Australia in the end.

[JSRAW]

Another final and our batters choose to have an off day, not one but almost all of them. Sounds about right and repeat of both WTC finals, facepalm.

250 runs would be below par here but even this one is looking tricky atm, shouldn't be tough tho if we manage to bat 50 overs. Plus if we touch 280-290 mark, it won't be a match winning total but our bowlers will have something to play with.

[libert19]

I don't know what happened. Australian bowlers were average during tournament, today they seem deadly. 213-7 at 44 overs, India might not even make 250 today, although Surya is still on crease but I don't expect much, it appears he'll stay at crease while new batters coming will get India alll-out.

I don't want Aussie to win again WC but if they do, they deserve it. Excellent bowling, fielding and field placement so far.
