Australia ****ed up the last 10 and still managed 83 off them. There's no safe way to do this but it's easier to go 7 an over now then chase 11-12 an over in the last 10 than start going at 9rpo for the next 20.

Or is it? idk. i want to believe in dhoni but ugh ****ing australia's gonna win this
we didn't really **** up the last 10 - overs 45-50 were pretty good for us (not amazing, but good). it was the overs between the end of the pp and ~43 where we got ourselves muddled.

I'd take the PP now. Then attack that, and continue the momentum before the death. It's certainly not unwinnable for India.

I think the last 10 weren't great either... just the last 2 that swung the momentum in a big way.

No you ****ing didn't you liar. You said India were ****ed if Kohli went which I called a knee jerk post. My point has always been that India have a chance particularly as they've got the best finisher in history at the crease. You disagreed and now you're arguing my point for me?
India are ****ed != impossible. They were ****ed for sure. It's not a knee jerk post. Dhoni is not a god - he's basically never done it from 20 overs on without help (ignoring the times he came in at #3 early in his career).

Nah its not, the game's gone if we don't hit out now. It's already 10 and over, I know Dhoni likes to take it deep but this is not the kind of chase for that unfortunately.
I dunno... feel a wicket now is pretty much game over. Better to take 5 more overs tbh. Jadeja is dead meat against this attack.

you can't sustain an onslaught over 19 overs with only two halfway competent players left in the shed. better to keep rotating the strike and have a shorter but intense go at this.

150 after 30 approx is perfect. unfortunately it's not the magical 150/2. they're on target doing what they're doing, they just can't get out.
