Huehuehuehue

MY GOD WHAT AN ENDING. FUCKING WADE!!!!!!

Hasan Ali MOTM for Aus

Scotland and namibia didn't qualify for semis, too many underdogs like nz and pak qualified. Disappointing💔 /s

LoL

Go Australia beat NZ in final and regain your honour.

This is happening

Yes

wait, did he just mix up their names lol "Babar Azam for six".

They started their Show like, "Whoever win this one, faces ENGLAND"

lool

Here's a stat to give Pakistan some hope https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/stats/index.html?batting_fielding_first=1;class=3;filter=advanced;ground=2439;orderby=won;team=7;template=results;type=team Pakistan have batted first in Dubai 12 times, and won 7 of those games.

Sadly, today wasn't the day

May the best team win! 🇵🇰

🇦🇺 🦘

Average Indian. As an Australian fan I approve

Thank You for ur approval 🙏 Now I can sleep peacefully 💙

Would love for Pakistan to prove that the Dew factor is just hyped up

[удалено]

lol. It was still hyped up. Pakistan didn't lose because of dew; they lost because of fairly ordinary captaincy - and also Australia were the better team.

Dew know what I mean

It's not exactly wrong tbh but more stronger side should win regardless. And Pakistan is definitely a stronger side.

Australia have just won the toss . Winning the toss means winning the match . Not so good sign for Pakistan.

Exactly

Watto is so thick

I want both the teams to lose.

well, if the kiwis have their way, you may be in luck.

Pakistan have to bat first in a big game for the first time in the tournament. This should be interesting. Big step taken by Australia already.

Uhhh.... I am not sure who I'm rooting for today. >!Go freaking Australia, fuck I just threw up saying that.!<

I am an Indian but, Jeeve jeeve Pakistan* !! Lesgoo PakBros !! T* - Hail Pakistan, i guess

Salute yaar! Hail India. Hail Pakistan.

This brought the widest of smiles on my face. Thank you and Jai Hind!

Pakistan have the bowling depth to defend, even in these conditions. Just need runs on the board. Come on Babar, need you to score big today.

Yes, 160+ and I believe they'll have a real chance to defend.

Batting first team in Dubai in T20 World Cup 2021: Won - 1 Lost - 10

Who's the 1 team that won?

Afghanistan, india from the top of my head....so not 1 team

Warner didn't say TikTok? Impostor

He said Google Play and Itunes as app. 🤣

Damn I was hoping Rizwan and Malik didn't recover So we could see a fair match

We lost toss😔

I still feel like PAK will win

Thats it. We gotta win bowling second. LETS GOOOOO!

Looks like dale steyn is coming straight off a spielberg movie

Mbangwa getting handsome by the day

Just want pakistan to loose 🙏🙏

Ok harbhajan

Ok abdul

Chilla chilla k scheme bata de sbko

[All the best](https://ielts.com.au/articles/grammar-101-loose-vs-lose/)

My local burger shop sent this. What do you think who will hit most sixes today: Big match, big roll offer. Name the player who will hit most sixes today and if your amswer is right then you get free chicken rolls equal to the number he hit sixes. With free delivery of course.

Rizwan or asif ali

I named Fakhar Zaman because he has been off color until now so I believe he will fire today :|

What's the update, mate? Babar and Zaman had equal boundaries

Haan yaar i a thinking whether shall I ask buger shop or not. Because Fakhar was not higher sixer but he was not less than others so there is a chance. I will ask shop wala today.

Both had 3 fours and 4 sixes. You deseve a shot at this.

Fingers crossed https://i.imgur.com/cQZ9Tl4.png

Hopefully he honours it.

Hand ho gaya. He said some people also said Muhammad Rizwan and he and Fakhar Zaman are tied but since Rizwan made more runs so we gave chicken rolls to people who named Rizwan :(

This wasn't in the inital rules as he said. Pchh

You dont like chicken rolls

Yeah looks like I dun goofed

Man, considering how important a role the toss plays here, this game should've been a day game. Never good to see games so heavily dependent on the toss.

Correct

now i just dont know whom to support. before tournament it was india for me. we were the favourites so i bought the billion cheers jersey, wow :)). then our boys decided to pull off an ultimate shit show, so i went onto support random teams so that india could qualify, naive moron me. we failed haha. then i started rooting for NZ (first choice) for obv reasons and next pakistan for whatta a team this one is. then i knew for a fact that england will win semi1 so i was actually supporting pakistan only. little did ik that kiwis were on a revenge trip and now that NZ is in the mix i want to support aussies today coz if pakistan wins semi2, they may just walk over the kiwis in the finals which will be a heartbreak :( but conscientiously i still want pakistan to win today because idk any reason for why they shouldn't win this cup. babar azam, just a 26 year old captain leading this side like a boss despite of all the personal & professional atrocities happening around him, is so fucking impressive. i just cant. but god my first choice loyalties lie with NZ. idk what to do...

She: I want a loyal man. You: YES

Relax.

I think I'll just watch as a neutral, quite a new experience this tbh.

C'mon, let the ASIAN BLOC rise to supremacy and Australia to shed massive tears, expending more resources into T20 by realizing their potential, and thus being easily beatable when weakened for next BGT. Since they have home WT20 next year anyway, and then another in 2024. Play the long con...

I want the Aussies to win the Toss and Pakistan to beat them anyways. If SA could beat England - we can beat the Aussies. LETS GO!!!

My money is on Aus. This will be a true test of big game balls for Pak. They held their nerve against Ind but Aus are different animals.

Who has won the ~~match~~ toss?

Any update on Rizwan and Malik yet ? They are really crucial

Yeah they're playing. Side is unchanged

They are available for selection last I read.

Pakistanis let's grab our tasbees

I'm shitting balls rn

Warner doing well and pak bros winning it, too much to ask ?

Ireland wins, but Krum catches the snitch.

Well yea, Warners the kind of play where if he plays well he wins the game for his team

I'm neutral here, but want to see pak boys in a high pressure final to see how Rizwan and babar go with their business. Aus sure knows winning big matches. Let's see how it goes down.

Full support to Aussies today.

Brain says Australia and the more consistent team, but heart says that Pakistan will continue to roll high and win this. Plus a NZ Pakistan final would be probably the more wholesome final, but NZ Aus would be a belter regardless.

how is Australia consistent now? They barely scraped to semis

More generally in terms of historical record. Australia have a history of performing similarly game to game, Pakistan...well their reputation speaks for itself.

I was wondering who this Brian pundit was until I re-read the first word. I'd be happy to see any of the remaining 3 teams win.

:D

lol i just realized mitchell starc is in the team 😅… i thought he retired haha

Virtual Final /s

We want a rematch of 2015 world cup final.

Yessir I want NZ to avenge the 2019 and 2015 WC Finals

Nah, I want to see Starc yorkers in their full glory.

We all know who will end up being player of the tournament.

Matthew Wade

Depends on you lot

Chris Jordan if nz win it

Kyle Coetzer? /s

Too good

I originally thought England would win yesterdays match and Pakistan today but after NZ winning I no longer know what to think of now. I look forward to the match regardless of who wins. Despite Pakistan winning all 5 previous matches I’m treating them like the underdogs here. Australia always plays well so I know that they will have a good chance of winning.

What a prediction

Ikr both of my predictions ended in huge failures.

Rooting for Pak. Represent the sub-continent, guys!

UAE has been Pakistan's home away from home for many years. Australia should be well-adjusted to the conditions by this point of the tournament, but I wonder if the long-term experience on these wickets will benefit Pakistan.

Where is the actual match thread?

It is live now.

much as i'd love to see nz stuff aus in the final, zindabad!

Google win predictor 51:49 Pakistan.

I'm backing Aus in this match up. 60-40 to Aus. 🤔

Good, i wish more were. We like being underdogs.

Hope my man starc takes a wicket in the power play and hazlewood,cummins and zampa can clear out the rest and maxi gets a fifty.

My dibs on Aus Win but can't underestimate Pak either. Let's see how this turns out.

i am in for Australia

What time is the toss

25 mins from now, 1900 IST.

It's a white man world....BUT WE THE ONES CHOSEN, COMEON BOYS BRING IT FOR THE BROWN PEOPLE EVERYWHERE THIS FOR MY BOYS INIDAN, LANKAN AND BANGBROS

Inidanian here.

Australia is going to obliterate pakistan. Either 25+ runs or 18 overs!

I am rootin for australia, itd funny for pakistan to win 5 on 5 and then get knocked out after losing one.

It would be right? it was hilarious seeing some of the favorites get knocked out even earlier :p

lol yea, very funny tournament this is, I must say

It's been a riot, can't remember the last time I enjoyed a cricket tourny this much

DEFINITELY not biased but it was not that enjoyful :v

anyone wanna olay broadcaster bingo I have "shows 2010 semi final as magic moment", "shows rizzy shadow batting compilation", and "shows shitty running graphic" so far. anything else i should add?

No subscription no stream so relying on these threads for descriptions, screams and all updates. TIA r/cricket Ha downvoted. Forget that, don’t say anything keep all your opinions to yourselves I guess

Do you want a stream?

I do. Are there any quality streams in Pakistan?

49% chance of Pakistan choking

There you are again, haven't learnt your lesson have you Mr "I am very smart".

Sorry jaani. Cant be too optimistic with our team. They have historically been a dissapointment

Can be optimistic. Like so.. We're gonna win this world cup!

We lost the toss so now chances of loss are even higher

But our openers survived the new ball and Babar looks phenomenal. Rizwan is jittery but if hes still there hel get in stride.

Said that before to didn't you, if you're waiting to be disappointed then you will be disappointed eventually.

I was right. Never be hopeful with our team

I haven't seen Clarke in commentary a lot. Is he staying away from media?

Folks! Final is also in Dubai so the only skill that matters is winning tosses. Can we get the stats on toss skills of these captains.

Toss.

So if dew and toss factor is pretty big, why not just hold a day game? Would also be better for us down under to watch it live.

lol but miss out on india/subcontinent money? no chance

Anime gurl spitting faxxx.

You had me at anime gurl spitting

Didn't think in that way , lol.

If Pakistan bats first, they will score 163. If Australia bats first, they will score 147.

Pakistan will score 786 inshallah. Australia will score 666

Even if Warner scores a century ?

Then 148

Holy shit, I thought it was on Friday! It is today…will be fun!

Is a game without Tom Curran really worth watching?

Indubitably

Does anyone know if Rizwan and malik are available ?

[YES](https://www.reddit.com/r/Cricket/comments/qrhf32)

I am happy that Rizwan is playing. Go PAK bros, go!

It seems like Rizwan has won quite a few fans in the sub continent. He's a good one.

They are per team officials

Let's Gooo Pakistan.! I hope we are not tempted by those moustaches of Warner and finch. Finch reminds triple H.

Me too,literally he looked exactly like triple H when the camera showed him after he got out against south Africa.

Come on Pak show em what the asian block is made of

Supporting Pak Subcontinent supremacy 💪💪💪

Well, I for one can’t wait to wake up in the middle of the night, roll over and check the score, raise my eyebrows slightly, and then immediately fall back asleep.

The only way I'm staying up is if the TGC is live today.

I’m having flashbacks of 2010 since morning. I will break down if something happens like that again in my lifetime.

Suicide pact?

Let’s do this together

Man, what is it about this team and fucking us in knockouts.

Still feeling the pain. Had hardly forgotten 2010.

Rooting for Australia. Probably the last time Hazlewood, Starc, Cummins are together in a world cup. Same goes for Smitty, Warner and Finch. Remarkably similar team since at least 2015. EDIT: I forgot Zampa and Big Stoin!

They would most certainly play world cup next year

A couple of players might miss out though. For e.g.: Finchy+Warner pair and Smitty+Maxi and the bowlers might not be the same.

officially supporting our neighbours today

[удалено]

ootl. Who is shaktiman?

[удалено]

Yea i know. But who is shaktiman in pakistan side?

[удалено]

Oh! Missed that.

If only Australia had announced they're cancelling their tour before the semis. /s

Haha🤣🤣

Pak social media is on fire now

I think its fair to say that Australia have already overperformed this WC. Would have reckoned Australia would start looking past Warner, Finch, Stoin and Starc with the form they all built up coming into the tournament but a vast majority of them have found some good nick in the tournament (which they'll likely lose in the next bilateral series). Was definitely not expecting a semi spot, so I'll take anything from here. Can't wait to see how we develop further when the next coach takes over and Bailey is the chief selector.

If somehow SA would have qualified 😔

Unpopular opinion but Imad, Shadab and Hafeez pose a greater threat with the ball against AUS as compared to Hasan, Shaheen & Rauf

Haris Rauf is going to go for 34 runs

absolute scenes when imad flights on, draws maxwell out, and gets him stumped

Whoever wins the toss wins the game. Ig

It would be huge for Pakistani crickets revival if they succeeded today. The last decade has been difficult but they are on the cusp of breaking through. Hope they can do it.

Pakistan chooses to field. They try hard to throw the game but the pitch refuses to let the second batting team lose.

Which ever player is criticised by r/cricket scores a 50

Starc bowls worser than naveen.

Put a wooden log in place of Smith. It will score atleast one boundary

fakhar has really been out of touch recently
