  • 2024 T20 World Cup, Day 29, the final! India v South Africa
    It was a final worthy of the occasion, one that swung one way and then another, back and forth through the full 40 overs. Virat Kohli took centre stage, Keshav Maharaj had his moment, Shivam Dube came good, Quinton de Kock and Heinrich Klaasen showed their best, and Jasprit Bumrah kept being magic. A stunning last-over result. #indvsa #savind #t20worldcupfinal #t20worldcup

      @@rajsub3884 yes, true. But 10 runs of 5 balls is much more favorable for the batting team than 16 off 6.
      Also, calling a team that lost "chokers" is effectively rubbing salt in their wounds. Did you used to call the Indian Men's and Women's team chokers for losing in various WC knockout matches?

    Kohli was the most relieved player after India won. He knows the criticism he's been getting for a while now. And all credit to him for changing his playing style in the IPL. He tried to be more aggressive in the world cup but it didn't work out coz the pitches had more for the bowlers. And in the final he went back to his old mode. It was looking like another Kohli big innings in a losing effort. And he knew it. Barely celebrated his 50. If India had lost, his innings would have definitely invited a lot of criticism.

      In the first over 2-3 overs he was super aggressive but when India was 34/3 he really really changed his gear back to his original play style of rotating strikes and only going ariel at the end. We all know the truth of so called Indian batting depth, Axar and Dube played the way they did coz Kohli was on the other end and Axar got lucky many times with the sixes. Imagine had Kohli got out in 30s, I pretty sure the entire batting line up would have folded and even 100 would have been a dream.

I don't think he was player of the match or anything. No one should have been player of the match for that game.

      He gets some hatred, Virat Kohli, back in India. The reaction of some of the Indian pundits to the win included some bizarre comments about how Kohli batted. It's not relevant now. India won the Cup, Kohli retired. This was and is the time to celebrate.
      If you ask me what I felt at the halfway stage, that's exactly what I felt. That he played like Samuels from those finals, Gambhir from the 2007 final, or even the Kohli from the 2014 final. Would it have worked for any other side in the tournament? Probably not. Would it work for the RCB? No way. But for an Indian attack with Bumrah, it does. It would have easily been 30 for 4, 30 for 5, game over.... Even when Axar Patel got himself run out after a brilliant innings, India were 104 for 4, not fully out of the woods. Runs in a World Cup Final ever so important. So it was street smart from Kohli.

    If you watch throughout the tournament India had choked the fuck out of some of the best teams. Pakistan, Australia were both in winning situation comfortably. India's death bowling has been really phenomenal. You have one Bowler who dogs in Yorkers. India had three specialist death bowlers . Not a single team throughout tournament managed to score even run a ball will 5-6 wickets in hand. Now that doesn't happen always. Indian bowlers literally turned death overs into a new art form this tournament

    Not To Just Spite your Opinion but I don't think Without Kohli's Innings India might struggle to score the death bowling of Rabada and Co, because I have seen in the bilateral T20 series between India and South Africa, South Africa did always well at the death, If the batter was new to the crease even Hardik struggled in the past against fast bowling of South Africa, so Kohli ensuring that there's a set batter remains until the end is very crucial thing for India's victory (If you notice the 10th over drinks break of India's innings you can see Dravid pulling Kohli slightly away and talking to him, I bet He told Kohli to stay calm until 17th over of the Innings)

    Adam mentioned it in the preview, about India's plan B should the top order fall quickly. As it turned out, they did have a plan, which was to rebuild around Kohli. And really, that's what makes this team so strong with bat and ball: when some plans and players fail, others are ready to pick up the slack. Thats why they deserve to be champions. South Africa took down India's spinners, but their number 7 position has been a thorn for decades. And this proved their unraveling.

      On second viewing, Pant might have actually needed the physio. 5th ball of the Bumrah over that went for a double, on that ball Pant had to jump to catch the ball after Dube threw it back. You can see that Pant didn't stand up fast after that. Maybe he actually did something there. Ravi Shatri said that it was a tactic so that's how we saw it, but maybe it was legit.
