An unbeaten India will face five-time champions Australia in the blockbuster final of ICC Cricket World Cup 2023. It will be India's fourth appearance in the summit clash of the tournament after 1983, 2003 and 2011바카라 웹사이트
An Indian captain ready to create a legacy of his own will have 10 ruthless professionals and a billion cricket maniacs for support when his team takes on five-time champions Australia in a winner-takes-it-all ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 final on what promises to be a 'Super Sunday'.바카라 웹사이트(Match Blog |바카라 웹사이트Scorecard바카라 웹사이트|바카라 웹사이트Streaming바카라 웹사이트|바카라 웹사이트Key Battles)
Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin know the feeling of winning an ODI World Cup back and Rohit Sharma himself was in the thick of things at the 'Bull Ring' in Johannesburg when India won their maiden T20 World Cup in 2007.
But the final on Sunday will be completely different. It won't just be a mere cricket tournament that needs to be won but also caring about the emotions of all those invested in the game.바카라 웹사이트
Rohit and his mates have time and again said that they don’t care about the outside noise but it is this outside noise that has made the game and this team relevant.
All the stakeholders -- the fans, who treat these players as 'Demi Gods', the broadcasters who spend a bomb buy Indian cricket telecast rights and the sponsors, who support the game -- all want the game to thrive and survive.
When Kapil Dev's toothy grin at the Lord라이브 바카라 balcony melted fans' hearts in 1983, it was the beginning and no one knew which direction the road ahead will lead us to.바카라 웹사이트
When Dhoni hit that winning six in 2011 World Cup final, it was more about a final reiteration that the ‘Mecca of Cricket’ has shifted long back and everyone needed to take a bow and accept Indian domination.
Circa 2023, Indian cricket team will not just be looking to win a third ODI global title but also look at saving the '50-over format' which has been battling identity crisis for at least five years now.
An Indian victory will give the format the injection it needs.
No team has ever won a World Cup with 11 victories on the bounce and even England had lost to Pakistan en route their global triumph in 2019.바카라 웹사이트바카라 웹사이트 바카라 웹사이트바카라 웹사이트
Rohit indeed has a date with history since if the team manages its 11th win on the trot it will be difficult to break the record.
A Near Flawless Effort
The skipper (550 runs @124 SR) has led from the front, literally walking the talk, with his aggressive in-your-face batting that has set the platform for Virat Kohli (711 @90 plus SR) to be the 'run machine' that everyone is so used to seeing.
Shubman Gill has battled dengue and corresponding fatigue to show his class time and again. Shreyas Iyer has fought his short ball demons to score a semi-final hundred. He has conquered his head and thus was able to win hearts.
But the man who has made a huge difference to India's campaign is Mohammed Shami. The 'Amroha Express' has made this team enjoy an aura of invincibility with his 23-wicket show after initial exclusion from the playing XI.
Shami is once again proving that old adage correct that batters win you games but bowlers can win you tournaments. Shami has put this team right there.
There is KL Rahul라이브 바카라 composure, Ravindra Jadeja라이브 바카라 invaluable all-round game, Suryakumar Yadav라이브 바카라 x-factor and Kuldeep Yadav라이브 바카라 innate ability to create self-doubts in the minds of the batters. And there is Jasprit Bumrah, who is ‘toe-crusher on call’ and can pluck a David Warner or Steve Smith out for fun.
The pitch, made of black soil, will be a slow turner but expecting Indian team to go with a third spinner in Ashwin looks like utmost luxury as of now.
Not Ugly Aussies But Lethal As Always
Post Sandpaper Gate, Australians team has undergone a tectonic cultural shift but five-time World champions know the art of winning on big days. Australia is possibly the only team that can actually put India under immense pressure.
"They've certainly played really well this World Cup. I think we certainly didn't - I don't think we scored par in that first game but we're one catch away from potentially being in front of that game,” Cummins referred to the dropped catch of Virat Kohli which became the turning point during the league game between two teams, which was also their opening match.
Cummins knows that 130,000 one-sided spectators would be rooting for India but he would harp on the fact that his team won an ODI series in India, earlier this year. 바카라 웹사이트 바카라 웹사이트 바카라 웹사이트바카라 웹사이트
"We won an ODI series here early on in the year. There's lots of moments we can draw on where we've had success against, you know, a really good Indian side."
So who will win tomorrow? Ruthless Indians or nice Australians. It remains a multi-billion dollar question.
