Thank you Jarrod. From Cricinfo If anyone was going to find a way to work this pitch out, there was a good chance it'd be them (Cummins, Starc and Hazlewood). So they cut out width. They shortened lengths. They took pace off as often as they could. They bowled cutters. They found reverse. In short, they sacrificed conventional, more glamorous methods and bowled a little ugly. It wasn't always stirring viewing - like that matters - but they kept a batting order that had hit 397, 410, 326 and 357 in their last four games to four boundaries in total after the powerplay. Four. It's so incredible it bears repeating. Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja, four boundaries after the powerplay.
Congratulations Aussies 6th time world champion. What a team. The greatest cricketing nation in the history of cricket. No team in the history of sports have dominated the sport like Aussies have dominated cricket. Even though the conditions weren't in their favour, they played extremely well to beat the conditions.
Lost their first two quite badly, got off to a bad start against Sri Lanka, 91/7 chasing 293 against Afghanistan, clung on with nearly 400 on the board against New Zealand, struggled in a chase of 214 in the semi, then they absolutely dominate India in the final. The format allows time for the big teams, but Australia really took advantage, a bit like the T20 World Cup in 2021.
i think australia hires the world's best psychologists period. this podcast is so much more thoughtful and intelligent than the low brow north american podcasts we have over here that pertains to its mindless pro sports games. cricket lovely cricket
I think they wanted Australia to bat first and get untangled on that dust bowl like they did in Chennai, but aus bowled fantastically well. And then giving india the shiny new balls that swung miles probably backfired as well cs once that was weathered the ball just came onto the bat nicely 😂
@my_father_sorry_i_am_lying_now nope from the 1996 World Cup and I played for the same club as Paul Dixey and David Gower (Highland court/St Lawrence) in Kent England, and lived around the corner from the Kent cricket ground.
This brazen interference on part of BCCI to bulldoze ICC into playing the matches on used pitches instead of preparing a new one cost us the world cup. Man to man, this was the very best of batting and bowling India had at their disposal. If played on a fresh batting wicket, I am certain, it would have been to India's advantage. But this unnecessary interference cost the nation and relegated the match to favour the team chasing with dew on .. It was a dick move and they should be held accountable for costing us a certain well earned trophy.
And still the sheer arrogance that there was a reason other than simply being outplayed by Australia. Like cry-babies blaming the toss without realising that regardless of who won the toss India was batting first. If the team chasing was favoured here why did Rohit say he would have batted? Instead of coping you are looking for someone to blame or an excuse for losing. It’s sport, the better team on the day won. Now grow up and learn to lose graciously - you and your countrymen and women are embarrassing yourselves.
@@cmadelaide56 Outplayed? Yes, we were. It was an emphatic victory. Congratulations Pat & co! But, was Australia odds on favourite coming into the finals? The bookies had them at 25% odds. Nobody chose them to win over India. Literally no one! Go figure.. Also, not sure where you drew the conclusion of arrogance from my post? I haven't even mentioned Australia. It's a rant against BCCI.
Australia had the conditions in their favour because they read them correctly, and put them in their favour by making the bold and unpopular decision to bowl first.
It was a very slow and dry pitch. So no way the conditions were in favour of the Aussies. They are used to fast and bouncy pitches. They beat the conditions by playing extremely well.
Jarrod, I think that 8 Indian players had close to their worst game in the final. The Aussies were good enough to cash in on this statistical improbability: Shreyas edged as he stayed back - fear of the short ball. Gill played an uncharateristic loose shot. KL prodded away, and dropped the mighty anchor. Jaddy and Sky got exposed. Spinners didn’t take any wickets. Shami was wayward. Siraj was visibly lost. Only Rohit, Virat and Bumrah held fort for a bit. Opinion?
Your discounting of this Australian team's ability seems irrational and frankly performative at times, but claiming Rohit Sharma, who's won diddly squat, is a better captain than Cummins, who's won just about everything there is to win, just takes the cake as your most absurd take in this vein.
KL is a state padder ... virat is a stat padder who knows how to chase games !! it's the same mindset --- fear of failure.. Rohit was the only one playing for the team ... everyone else was playing for their brand!!
Virat's role is to anchor the innings and he did that job well throughout the WC. See how post his wicket all fell like a pack of cards. It isn't that hard to use 1% of your brain.
@@GS7999 OK... I get it his role is that of an anchor?? did he do that? Not entirely right!? even if you are anchoring... you need to rotate strike .. at 80 Sr.. look at the dot balls percentage in the kl Rahul and virat partnership..

Travis head, he played and missed n number of balls today as well as in wtc final, How come he didin't edge, anyway Great innings luck favors the brave
The only thing India must start doing now as a team is show intent no matter what. It will hurt a lot less, but never go back to this approach of going into a shell and be defensive. It’s a mindset change more than anything else. They all have the skills, tactically some decisions may work and some may not work… but a positive intent is the key in all situations. If you go down fighting then so be it.
I was happy to see Australia win the toss and bat, and I'd been thinking about it for days before the final. I know, what do I know, as an amateur pundit? What worried me was India's confidence in chasing, and I just had that awful feeling that even if Warner, Marsh, Head went crazy and we set 400, that India's batting lineup would relish the challenge under lights. When they know what par is, where the bar is, they back themselves to be that little bit better than the opposition was. No, far better to send them out first, make them feel out the pitch, worry about what a par score is, put the SPECTRE of Warner-Marsh-Head-Maxwell chasing in their heads rather than the real thing. And that spectre includes the uncertainty, will they fire or not? Will just getting runs on the board be enough or not? Then it's the pressure on India's bowling attack to defend. They, in particular, have been too good and too comfortable this tournament, and not had to solve problems. And I just felt like, for all their bowling talent, and for all our batting foibles, Aus had the ability to put them under pressure and worry them like that hadn't been so far this tournament. And from there, capitulation might come. The fear of Maxwell around the corner, when he's not in yet, helps stem the growth of any assurety or self belief in the fielding side when they get a few things right
How about Indian fans grow up, stop being cry-babies, and learn to lose with dignity and grace (ie like an adult). Either that or go and watch DKs pathetic heart felt message and wallow in your own self-pity.
The thing about head is he is a striker. He isn't like virat or Rahul whose gonna wait to settle down before he takes you down. He will strike you every chance he gets. That can look and sometimes is actually out of control as people say. But im sure, if anybody showed intent the way head did by hitting three 4's in the first over to freaking bumrah, he would seem out of control. Same applies to maxwell. His is a bit too much, he looks reckless and like he wants you to get him out, so he can go home.
What advice did you give Maxwell for the Afghanistan game? Do you think our middle order is weak or inconsistent? It seems Smith's salad days are over. Maxell is very inconsistent and despite his fine innings in the final Marnus doesn't fill me with confidence. Stoinis even less so. Maybe Green will come good and Hardie will be introduced (I am NOT a Sandgroper). It was a really, really fine performance. However, may I just say, Please bring on the Test matches! I have missed them.
I thought this was the main channel??? I used to think Head was overrated (re: Tests) and that someone like Maxwll or even Handscombe were much better choices. Time has probably proven me wrong (still have a lot of time for Handscomb (I am NOT Victorian "wash your mouth out")). There was a poll in the SMH (& probably Age) and India were considered 9% to 31% I agreed. I am glad I didn't put money on the game. I am no expert but I consider this Indian team the best since the 2007 Australians.
Just want to know why Rohit wasn't using more of Bumrah and Shami and letting Siraj, Kuldeep and Jadeja give so many runs. Bumrah and Shami were bowling very good.
he only had 10 overs of them left after the opening and the pitch was also spin friendly with all of India's spinners in form a wicked would've come in eventually
Saturday evening The pitch was bounce tested with tennis balls and an end had a little bounce...so it was rolled to make it dead...it was made sure that the pitch had no bounce or pace...I guess it was ICC and Cummin's plan to do it and play on a dead wicket...😂...Power needs to bring responsibility rather turning you into an autocratic demigod...The way BCCI handled pitch, conditions, fixtures, ground conditions and opponent teams in this event... It was disgraceful...Still they could not win..In sports you have to bully the opponents through performance... Not with performance and Support of everything else...Karma will eventually kick in...but It very very funny... 😂😂😂
Australia won T20 WC, World Test Champions and ODI Champions in a couple of years and you're still questioning who are the best team in the world?? Get a new job
It's frankly embarrassing how Indian fans are making this about themselves. India got bodied hard enough that discussion about the conditions is out of question.
@my_father_sorry_i_am_lying_now that's no excuse every team has had to deal with this situation in every match. Pitch condition cannot be used as scape goat and India is playing home conditions, which should have allowed them to judge the pitch better in the first place
Gavasker says pitch is the same for everyone post semi final against New Zealand. And, the same guy recommends to have best of 3 finals for World Championships. Best thing is to let Rohan Gavasker coach team India.
KL Rahul is the worst. He either doesnt show up in big occasions or shows up just to make a terrible thing. He doesnt have a great nerves, to think smart and to act tough, instead he went into a shell and that cost us more.
@@kengihepworth7568 yuh if one feel ill loose my wicket if I play a shot, then there won't be any scores right. At that level one should be circumspect of the way they are playing.
Its incredible to see CONMAN sadhguru in stadium not KAPILDEV. That is one of the reason i wanted india to lose. THEY WILL TRIUMPHET this as HINDUVTA win and annoy the whole world. In this day and age india worshipping human face Gods. We created GOD to make us live Happy. There is no other purpose. GOD job is keep out all tough questions so we think less , less we think more we can be happy. Making GOD human form starts all kinda discrimination. GOD is formless. Its just an idea.
Every one analyses why india lost. My reason is selection of indian team. You need leaders. lack of leaders mean all you have mentally weak players. SKY is unfit for ODI . They keep picking him based on T20 heroics. KL rahul failed badly in t20 world cup yet he walked straight into team. Shreyas Iyer cant play well under pressure. Gill is waste of spot. Jadeja is worthless player in ODI and T20. he is still good in test matches. I blame Rahul dravid coaching. he is a mental midget
@@clonedmosquitoNepotism @ BBCI .meme Always play Ashwin. Generational tried and true talent. Big brain, knows how to get value in a cricket match and can hold a bat.
Thank you Jarrod. From Cricinfo
If anyone was going to find a way to work this pitch out, there was a good chance it'd be them (Cummins, Starc and Hazlewood). So they cut out width. They shortened lengths. They took pace off as often as they could. They bowled cutters. They found reverse. In short, they sacrificed conventional, more glamorous methods and bowled a little ugly. It wasn't always stirring viewing - like that matters - but they kept a batting order that had hit 397, 410, 326 and 357 in their last four games to four boundaries in total after the powerplay. Four. It's so incredible it bears repeating. Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja, four boundaries after the powerplay.
It’s one thing to win a WC at home, but to win it playing India in India is simply incredible. Congrats to the Aussies, well played
