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

Rahul’s not been seen as an opener for a long time. Thought that was made even clearer when they opted to bat Sundar in the dead rubber last month over him.

Only AB de Villiers has a better average at 5 in the last ten years.

18 dots in a row! Good start for the Dutch!

With Dravid at the helm, you never know.

Engelbrecht's catching seems to have gone downhill since he took that one he's remembered for

I was about to say, that is the last thing I'd have expected him to do on debut

Mum's review of India v Australia

I just don't know why they took so bloody long. They should've just thrashed them. It was ridiculous.

That's why I reckon they fixed it; so England are at the bottom. That's where Australia should be.

You should do a weekly podcast with your Mum.

For all the talk about Kohli being amazing in chases, I dont think most people still realise the scale of it. Those numbers are just absurd, in 20 years time people will look back and wonder how it was even possible honestly

He clearly gets a massive psychological boost from knowing exactly how many runs he needs from each over. Obviously every chasing team will know that, but Kohli clearly minimises the uncertainty and pressure for himself

Not deported, she left willingly.
My own two cents are that i have zero sympathy for her, she was in her early 20s just like me, old enough to know better than to insult any religion. Didn’t even issue an apology on social media, which was bound to make her hosts even more angry.
Such language is sadly prevalent in both countries and both religions.

In my capacity as a staff member, i will delete all posts regarding this matter from this thread, as it will just lead to religiously motivated discussion. If need be, it can be discussed elsewhere.

Where do we think Engelbrecht bats then?

Thought he'd be at 4 but wonder if he'll come in ahead of Ackermann??
