Cheers to all. Managing league has turned into one of my hobbies quite a sometime. That's why I love engaging myself with leagues here. Of course, it would have never been possible without all your support and those lineups and your activity. In other way, it would have been so boring doing all by myself, and I just could end up putting things on hold like few of my football leagues.

AB de Villiers gets going with two delicious boundaries as soon as he came to bat.

Code:
4.1  Dwayne Bravo to Rilee Rossouw, Good ball, he goes for the cut, it's too close to cut, he's inside edged it, and it misses the stumps by a whisker! The keeper tidies up and there is no run. Phew that was close.   (0)

5.3  Jerome Taylor to Rilee Rossouw, That one deviated sharply of the pitch, the batsman had no chance of playing that. Dot ball.  (0)
5.4  Jerome Taylor to Rilee Rossouw, Down the track and driven through midwicket. There is no fielder in the deep so Long On has to run around to field it, and so in the meanwhile the batsmen get three. Poor bowling but good placement.  (3)
5.5  Jerome Taylor to AB de Villiers, He comes on the front foot to drive it, and is beaten for bounce! But instead of checking his shot, he follows through with it and sends it sailing into the pavillion! 6 runs, excellent batting!  (6)

India needed 154 runs from 20.0 overs to win
Code:
0.1  Mitchell Starc to Rohit Sharma, Full and on the toes, the batsman just flicks it past the now-vacant short fine leg region for four runs! The captain is fuming, and it's right after he took the fielder out of there!  (4)
0.2  Mitchell Starc to Rohit Sharma, Beautiful shot! Down the ground, easy four for the batsman.  (4)
0.3  Mitchell Starc to Rohit Sharma, The batsman lines up for a big slog over cow corner, but gets an inside edge, which scoots past the stumps and the keeper for four runs! The bowler has a wry smile, if the batsman keeps that up, it won't be too long till he's back in the pavillion...  (4)
0.4  Mitchell Starc to Rohit Sharma, Edged and over the slip fielder! Two runs while third man tidies up.  (2)
0.5  Mitchell Starc to Rohit Sharma, Fired that one in full and on the offstump, the batsman can just squeeze it away to cover. No run.  (0)
0.6  Mitchell Starc to Rohit Sharma, And the batsman pulls out the sweep shot! Takes a lot of skill to play that, and he has enough to place it for two.  (2)

Wow. Great win for us. Rohit Sharma was amazing to play till the end and he ensured that we won. He had not performed well since couple of matches, today he came back very well. Yuvi's 50 was pleasing. It was good move to move yuvi back to #4 position. Bowlers did a great job to restrict them to 153. Ashwin and Bumrah were great and as well as Shami who picked up couple of wickets. We won comfortably in the end. Looking forward for the big match !

Oh snap what a win! Rohit Sharma, the big match player. Amazing bowling first up to restrict the Aussies to 150 odd. It was a collective effort. Then it was the Rohit and Yuvraj show which sealed the deal for us. The big final it is with South Africa playing really well. We will hopefully better them in the final. Let's win this!

42nd Match, Final: India v South Africa at Kolkata
@zwarrior @User2010 / @Umair2000


Rules
Mark at least SIX bowlers. Also make sure to include a genuine :wk:/:wkb:Wicket-Keeper.

You have 72 hours from now. If lineup is not posted within 72 hours, it will be retained from last round. (With random changes in case you received injury during previous round)

A hard pitch with a lot of bounce on offer, and will suit batsmen who play on the back foot well. The ball is bound to reverse swing in the end.
No injuries took place during previous rounds.

I have a feeling that Rishi Dhawan might do well in terms of bowling. So, replaced Ashwin with Rishi Dhawan. Also, should we include U Yadav? He was expensive in all the matches. I am confused with the bowling unit. Can you make necessary changes ? @User2010

I will just say that we should go with the same XI. A big final and we have a settled first XI so we shouldn't make unnecessary changes. Having said that whatever you have done so far has worked so go with what you feel. :)
