Let's see how many Pakistani fans we get for this game, seeing visas aren't being processed

India v Pakistan is kind of a big deal from whatever angle you're looking at it.

I'd like Pakistan to win but I'm not holding my breath on it happening.

 

[HugeJohnson]

An Indian guy I work with told me he doesn't care about winning the final, as long as they beat Pakistan.

I will still be watching this on Kayo

I wonder if this will officially be the first "full house" at this ground...Unless it's been done at the IPL finals?

This World Cup is a step up from when the 50 over World Cup was in Australia and New Zealand in 2015. For that tournament, channel 9 showed Australian games, the 2 semi finals and the final aka the bare minimum.

In this World Cup, there's a group of 6 teams that had a good chance of making the last 4 before the tournament began - India, England, Pakistan, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. Any match featuring any two of the aforementioned 6 should be on channel 9.

They have finally realized that there are more countries out there, and that now a higher quantity of supporters that do not support Australia. Even the latest ads try to show some diversity and even mention samosas.

If how long it took this to happen to the cricket is anything to go by, other sports may struggle to see non-Australian games on FTA for a while. Even with the Rugby WC, only Australian games and the final are being shown on FTA, I don't support the Wallabies in the Rugby and would like to see other games in that WC as well.

You cant help but not be excited for this game even as a neutral. Could make a case for this even being the biggest sporting event in 2023.

 

[MarcMaverick]

Probably the match of the tourney.

 

[010203]

Ready for this after a late afternoon nap.

 

[010203]

Imagine how loud Ravi Shastri will be at the toss on the day of the final if India are there.

 

[010203]

I'm predicting this game to be a fizzer.

 

[NYRB]

The teams:

India (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma(c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul(w), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj

Pakistan (Playing XI): Abdullah Shafique, Imam-ul-Haq, Babar Azam(c), Mohammad Rizwan(w), Saud Shakeel, Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Hasan Ali, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf

 

[NYRB]

Brendon Julian doesnt know what a good score on this pitch is.

 

[010203]

Khawaja trying to look smart with those glasses. Brad Haddin's prediction of Sri Lanka making the semi finals isn't looking crash hot at the moment. Junior picked South Africa to get to the semis. That prediction is looking like a good one.

 

[010203]

In ODI's, Pakistan have a winning record against India. In fact, they're +20 in the historical head to head between the two countries. India dominate though in World Cups.

 

[akkaps]

Imagine how loud Ravi Shastri will be at the toss on the day of the final if India are there.

I would say that he has gone through a few Kingfishers already, but they are playing in a dry state

WTFFFFFF Channel nine switched from IND vs Pak to Oceans 11 movie Bloody hell

 

[010203]

Haydos will be torn. He loved working with Pakistan but he ****ing loves India. He probably loves India as much as he loves his wife.

 

[akkaps]

It's on Gem, apparently
