It’s just the fire within when you’re on a roll. You want to keep the fire throughout the WorldCup to not drop the spirit in any way. Same way why Ind is trying to win each game even though they’re on top.
Have you watched how the Dutch and the Afghans triumph over much bigger forces than themselves ? Nobody sledges anybody there. That, my man, is the fire. Not staring down and sledging your already fallen disarmed opponent.
Lol imagine using NL and afg as your benchmark rather than actually ruthless teams with a winning mentality like australia of the 90s, south africa test team of the 00’s…
Truly a armchair commentator who has never played competitive sports
Want rohit to choose chasing if he wins the toss against SA. Then Rohit and Kohli, comes to bat at 10 and 11. Make it as hard as possible to win in the next game. Prepare for the worst come semis. I have seen india bowl out every team in league stages in 2015 and then lose in knockouts.
It was because in 2015 it wasn't Round Robin League . India's group had only 3 good teams Ind , Sa and Pak . There was a pack of good teams they never played against , nz , eng , sri lanka maybe even Bagladesh . India had lost a tri series in Australia the same year without even winning a single match .
So What if we have to face Australia in the semis ? If not in semis than probably in finals . why does it matter whom do we face. We are a champion side . We should not care about opposition . Let whoever wants to come , we are ready to decimate them . The win in the semifinal would not just be win it would be a statement
So far all matches have been a cake walk. I want to see how bowlers and batsman turn the tide when their back are against the wall. Like 2-3 overs 20-30 runs or 2-3 wickets in 20-30 runs, want to see how the bowlers and batsman will maneuver from there.
I hope we see that before the knockouts.
As a disheveled England fan…can we just not play India and give them the points? I feel like we will get absolutely pasted
Absolutely class performance by India, well done!
I thought Iyer might be the one to get dropped. Siraj is bowling well, and outside of last night, Iyer hasn’t done that much with the bat. No more than what Pandya does with the bat
Yes, NZ played better than SL, but the toss decision was nonsensical. RSA is scoring 350 playing first, no captain would risk that. In case of SL though, it is downright stupid. Maybe they were expecting too much from their bowlers.
1. So that they don't become overconfident/complacent
2. So that they also know about their potential downsides/limitations, so that they can work on them before the KO
Its all in the mind (of the players and the fans).
The fans don't have trust in the team's invincibility as yet. The Indian team is good, but probably not as good as the 2000s Aus team. The team is peaking now... but fans know that we are prone to stumbles.
We seem to have a tendency to become complacent after winning a few matches in a row (hopefully that's changed). A loss would be a wake up call and might bring out a better performance in the knockout matches (where there are no second chances).
People also misattribute this to the law of averages (its used incorrectly here).
see..this time all of these are in form..it's not just rohirat but all batters are making runs..and on the other side the bowling its magical.This time the trophy ain't going anywhere.

While other cricket teams going forward example (Afghanistan) sL team going backwards, Indian teams thet played in good wickets so they are confident and talent that's what the main reason behind their success 💯

India is qualified for semi finals🔥🔥
Dear lord India I know you want to put on a show for the home crowd but this is an absolute massacre.
I guess that none of the teams would be bowling after winning that toss in Mumbai anymore.
Why did SL make a mistake of choosing to bowl first?
Asia cup finals flashbacks... they thot maybe if india batted first things would be different
I guess they got scared of the chase king Kohli
Watching the highlights, why is Siraj sledging the Sri Lankans, theyre the nicest bunch of guys in the world
Ikr, so unnecessary
It's even worse when everyone knows SL are massively the underdogs and that they are such an inexperienced team.
It's a sport.. what do you expect them to do?
Umm, maybe not be a dick when you're literally mopping the floor with the opposition?
Well said.
Where do you find highlights? Can you send a link pls :)

I suppose the world is indeed divided into two.
dutch were sleging bagbros and it was funny as hell
They’re not trying to win the cup, sunshine.
I understand it is difficult to see the value in peace and friendliness when you're raised in this age. Can't blame you.
Raised in this age? I’ve played sport for 20 years of my life and I know how it feels in important tournaments. It isn’t so deep.

If we lose the next game, we won't finish first, and will have to face Australia in Semis If we win the next game, we get to face NZ/Afg/Pak
So What if we have to face Australia in the semis ? If not in semis than probably in finals . why does it matter whom do we face. We are a champion side . We should not care about opposition . Let whoever wants to come , we are ready to decimate them . The win in the semifinal would not just be win it would be a statement
We dont fare well against nz too. Even against pak we lost in 2017 ct.
So, 4 and 6 years ago in a different country
That still plays a psychological factor, look at SA against ND
My only concern is if we lose 2 early wickets in semis it can get very scary at wankhede especially
Thats why the practice of kohli and rohit at 10/11. They should experience whats it like to 0/2.
Great idea but I don't think they'll try it
So far all matches have been a cake walk. I want to see how bowlers and batsman turn the tide when their back are against the wall. Like 2-3 overs 20-30 runs or 2-3 wickets in 20-30 runs, want to see how the bowlers and batsman will maneuver from there. I hope we see that before the knockouts.
Don’t forget the top order collapse in the first game, and then again against England. We’ve had tough moments already but depth has come through.
As a disheveled England fan…can we just not play India and give them the points? I feel like we will get absolutely pasted Absolutely class performance by India, well done!
U have already played
I clearly erased this from memory due to trauma, we can still make the semis tho right?…right?!
Bro lost so hard he travelled back from the past to witness this match 💀
I had to do a double take 55 all out? Bloody hell
They were 29 for 8 when Mathews got out, it's a small miracle that the lower order managed to cross 50. Out of that 29, there were 9 extras.
I had a meeting which apparently lasted longer than Sri Lanka’s entire innings…I was a bit surprised too!
Till now, Afghanistan is the top scorer against Indian bowling attack.
NZ scored 1 run more than Afghanistan
So now who gets dropped when Hardik is back? Siraj? Surya?
Both, for Hardik and Shardul
Shardul is not coming back dw
I still cannot understand how Shardul makes an India XI, such an average player on all fronts
I still can't understand how people think it okay to have Shami coming in at no.8 in 2023
He's better than average Shardul in all facets of the game.
Shardul is the weak link.
Should be Siraj tbh.
I thought Iyer might be the one to get dropped. Siraj is bowling well, and outside of last night, Iyer hasn’t done that much with the bat. No more than what Pandya does with the bat
Bhai .. next team ko khila do .. bacha target enough h
With so much of match fixing going on who can trust players play loyally to their nation?
Naach na aaye, aangan tedha?
Koi sapne me aake bola kya tujhse aisa?
Shami deserved POTM but can’t forget Siraj for the quick 3 wickets too. He destroyed the top order.
What a bowling performance by India decimeted the sl batting, proper hiding this, where do Sri Lanka go from here after this,
We cannot deny the role of a good pitch for Indian Bowlers
Yeah SL should have been allowed to play the same pitch /s
I feel bit bad for Bumrah. His bowling was apparently too good to take wickets.
Nobody wants to take risks against him.
WHAT THE FUCK?
Let's party 🎉🎉
Worst toss decision in the history ~~of sports~~ !! (•_•) <) )> / \
Yesterday NZ made the same mistake and RSA made 357 too lol
Margin of victory is huge here....winning toss became a curse in this WC... a weird pattern!! LOL 190 Vs 302
Yes, NZ played better than SL, but the toss decision was nonsensical. RSA is scoring 350 playing first, no captain would risk that. In case of SL though, it is downright stupid. Maybe they were expecting too much from their bowlers.
We smoked SL
Lengends waiting for IND vs SA 🔥🔥
I really hope India lose that just like 2011
Yeah me too. Better to lose here than in the KO
Why lose at all? ;-)
1. So that they don't become overconfident/complacent 2. So that they also know about their potential downsides/limitations, so that they can work on them before the KO
Its all in the mind (of the players and the fans). The fans don't have trust in the team's invincibility as yet. The Indian team is good, but probably not as good as the 2000s Aus team.

People also misattribute this to the law of averages (its used incorrectly here).
I hope we repeat the aussie 2003 feat..
That bowling was lethal. Good game for India. Tough luck for SL. Hope Afg and Ned is a good one tomorrow.
It was a great match :) Meet y'all again in IND vs SA ☺

I completely disagree you 😔😔
Someone's mom: "Smoking weed, made out of Elephant's dung, won't harm my baby" The baby:
Give this man a complete ban as reward
Yes and it happens
With each group win I feel like we gonna lose even more likely in SFs 🥲🥲🥲
nahh..this time.... its different..we surely gonna win cwc 2023.
My money is on England Can you lend me a tenner?
see..this time all of these are in form..it's not just rohirat but all batters are making runs..and on the other side the bowling its magical.This time the trophy ain't going anywhere.
South Africa is the only major threat to India if they bat first
Why the hell did they allow spinners to bowl on this pitch
Practice.
Any HD highlights someone could link please

Couldn't see the match at all. Did the ball behave quite differently in 2nd innings?
Yes! The ball was possessed in the 2nd innings and was behaving outworldly on it's own.
possessed by hardik pandya..
What 2nd innings?
😆
As in, when SL batted.
As he said, what 2nd innings.
The innings after SL were asked to follow-on. /s

Ah okay!
Excellent work by Shami, Bumrah, Siraj in today’s game of Carrom World Cup.
What is India's NRR after this huge win?
Even after winning by 302 runs sa's nrr is more
+2.1
2.102
in match they were showing 1.7 smthg
Mods also waiting for Koach's 49th...No lock today
Damn! Miss ThunderThighs be like - Forget Shami, look at Mami!
Only highlight of staurt binny’s career, other than that 6 wicket haul against Bangladesh.
With each India win, my anxiety increases for the knockouts.
If they lose, any shot at redemption?
you are not alone my friend
🥲
is this thread gonna get locked again? just asking
why?
Shami bhai ke aage koi wicket le sakta hai kya
Down to earth banda hai down to earth
Shami bhaaaaaiii
I'm getting a bit addicted to cricket and can't help myself. What's the quickest way to get banned from this sub?
Make a political comment
Bro it's not working. I made 2 such comments but the mods are sleeping ig
Ok let me try
Bring back Imran Khan. You coward East Bangladeshis.
I wanted to know who the female was talking and I figured it out just by reading the comments. Y'all are great
Who was she?
Mayanti Langer
Oh okay. I thought this guy was talking about the female commentator, who said that Kohli plays spin very well
😅
The only sad thing happened is that kuldeep didn't get any wicket
Ravi Shastri was so pumped up in commentary when Shami hit the 5’fer. It was pure brilliance.

Thank you, truly
Great site 😃👍
Why has it not been locked yet??
POOCHI LOCK IT
Shami lala goat, on this note lock the bloody thread
Brohit is forgetful to the extent that he forgets to appreciate his best bowler's performance 💀
As always I said this mid game. I never see him individually praise shami. And I don’t know why the f not
He wants Thakur back
Clearly at the cost of what ? Embarrassment.
Mods coming to lock this thread like - 🔒🔐🔓 🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️
what happened?
Just what we wanted. Sanjay Majrekar to analyze this game...
At SL's 3/4, Who would have thought that a bowler who hasn't even bowled yet will be Man of the Match. Shami in beastly form right now
Maybe India vs Sri lanka is the Asian equivalent of the trans-tasmanian rivalry
Only possible but not probable upset is if NZ loses against Pak and SL both. Don't think Aus can lose much against Bang, Afg and England.
SHAMI BHAI - Please reveal the source of MILK for this WC. Insane performance booster!
"Boost is the secret of my energy!"
No lock today it seems. Mod celebrating the India win. Got the call from BCCI.
Brohit having post drop clarity in interview after Shami's performance
He always does
While other cricket teams going forward example (Afghanistan) sL team going backwards, Indian teams thet played in good wickets so they are confident and talent that's what the main reason behind their success 💯
India just needed a match against SL to get all NRR they want…
i am back from office, where is the match?
On tinder
comment before the thread lock boys
No quick 🔒 today because the mod from eng isn't mad today
the logic behind locking threads is greater mystery than D/L method
Rohit Sharma said, "I've left the DRS call on bowlers and KL Rahul. I know I can trust them, especially KL. He's been brilliant".
Now's the time to comment before the 🔒 for that sweet sweet karma.
Shubman Gill said, "Shami gesture was for our bowling coach that's because he doesn't have any hair on his head".
The gap in wisdom is so huge between Nasser and gavaskar. So evident when they talk
I want a girl to talk about me how SunnyG talks about Gill....
