Lesser forms of cricket thread

Beautiful stadium but a joke of a pitch. Nearly 800 runs yesterday.

Think it was the outfield as much as the pitch. It was razor fast.

South African cricket is to South African rugby as Cork football is to Cork hurling.

Beaten by Australia in the competition to be India’s sacrificial lambs in the final.

Australia will be a massive threat on Sunday and ive India backed, huge pressure on home side they could do with winning the toss and putting up a score first

The World Cup final, India v Australia about to get underway. 132,000 packed into the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Australia win the toss and elect to bowl.

A city I’ve never heard of that has a population bigger than Ireland. India is mad.

Anyway I’ve no idea what I’m watching here

Australia putting the cat amongst the pigeons here. India 81/3 after 10 overs.

Australia will win this.

Any dodgy streams on the go for this

India are of dubious character. Gritty Aussies will win this

India doing no damage in the scoreboard. Nerves in front of the 6 million people in the stadium.

Aussies look very relaxed

I’d love to see the Indians get turned over in Narendra Modi’s stadium.

Cheers Sid.

Did Modi get the fucking stadium named after himself

It was formerly the Sardar Patel Stadium. Had a capacity of around 40,000. It was demolished about 7-8 years ago and rebuilt. Modi is from Gujarat, from just outside Ahmedabad.

Modi was also chairman of the Gujarati Cricket Board for some years.

He’d be a well known aficionado of the game.

This is gonna give JP and pat mcdonagh ideas
