2023 ICC Cricket World Cup (October/November) - India

Not so sure about the Test one. Good innings, sure, but it was just 135. Come on, man. England didn't even claim the Ashes.

I'd say it wasn't even the best test innings of that year. Kusal Perera 153 to get Sri Lanka a test a series win in South Africa is better for me.

Yep, I watched both of them live and Kusal’s was better despite the Proteas attack missing a bowler.

Today match proof that this win probability graph is a joke.

omg... mujeeb should be dropped for that dropped catch alone, knocked afghanistan out of the world cup, maxi only on 33

I think people still misunderstand statistical predictors somewhat. 1% chance doesn’t mean impossible, it just means extremely unlikely.
But it was weird for it to be at 100% here, because nothing is 100% at any point in time. Must have been extremely close to 100%, and must have rounded up

I don't think anyone gave them a chance (expect sai srini of course - Mr 1%)

Afghanistan just need 1 more wicket of maxi. Game actually will be on once they get that. Right now, Australia winning it easily

Maxwell to score 100 in 40 balls and winning it for Australia.

Regret not catching the innings live. Watched the highlights and the way he batted after scoring 150 was crazy - who knew you could play those ridiculous without moving your feet an inch. I've seen injury ridden innings before but don't think anything will match this.

See, hats off to Maxwell for winning it! Taking away nothing from his effort here. I saw the game live and felt that Afghans weren't bowling to their field; had no plans at all. The 2 dropped catches didnt help either. Maxwell went on a rampage thereafter, but with some decent bowling changes it could have been avoided. The pacers came on pretty late and they sorely missed "Rashid Khan" (yes, he was present but has looked a pale shadow of himself)

Towards the end though, tossing up dollies to Maxwell, weird field placements and allowing him to take singles was probably what contributed to the Afghan loss yesterday.
