….i’ve been saying for weeks that India will lose in the final, I just haven’t backed the Aussies.

India are ticking over okay, but the fact they haven't had a boundary in over an hour shows how Australia are keeping them shackled.

I'm going for the Aussies, too.

reckon Australia might struggle to chase 270 on this pitch. Think this will be close. A lot depends on the Aussie openers.

Nothing guarentees a prediction like not putting money on it

….too short for me but I think it’s so difficult to win every game in a competition and there will be pressure on the Indians.

India feeling the pressure a bit here. Putting them in to bat doesn’t seem so dumb right now.

Rahul playing this way has put all the pressure on India. No idea what he's thinking

 

[cronullasharks]

Eeeeeee

 

[JimmyJeffers]

The commentators had just spent the last 20 mins on a Kholi love in as well. Jadeja is the real star of this India team for me. Such a good player.

 

[hallamblue]

India need to get a more attacking mindset, just sleepwalking to a defeat here

Aussie fielding and bowling has been exceptional as well.
Maybe putting them in to bat was a calculated move to see if the pressure would tell.

Yes they have bowled and fielded well . I thought that the decision to field because of dew and the hope that that would negate the Indian spinners was as negative as the Aussies tactics in the Ashes . Maybe they will be proved correct

As an aside great to see top Evertonian Tommy Fleetwood ripping it up in Dubai and leading the big tournament on 19 under
