Just remarkable how strong India are.
Pitches have been pretty fair and they've been able to use their balance across pace and spin the be effective with the ball.
Don't see how a team can score enough against them to be a genuine threat.

He’s coming off a continuous back injury. Probably not worth the risk.
Also, Kohli was listed as an all rounder in the u19 WC
And saw an interview between Rohit and Guarav on my Insta today where Rohit used to be a bowler, and the coach was telling him to focus on his batting. However an injury to his finger put an end to his bowling
I have... nothing to watch

did he technically "catch" it since the ball wasn't in his hands and the teammate picked it up off his back?

The ball had come to rest, it was in a state of control as he laid their still in control of it.
So i'd give him the catch.

I read somewhere that said that India were like 25/1 to win against the West Indies in 1983. It was really a win against the odds. Wikipedia quoting around 66/1
"They had reached a third consecutive final after defeating Pakistan by 8 wickets in the second semi-final and were looking for their third consecutive World Cup win. As a result, the Indian team was only given odds of 66–1 at the start of the final."

India had barely even played much ODI cricket before that tournament.

Gerard Whateley summed up this World Cup on SEN this morning when talking about the pitch: “It’s felt like a tournament in India for India and for India to win."

How it plays is not the point, if the BCCI overruled the ICC in an ICC event it's a big ****ing deal
But we're not really sure yet, all we have is a Daily Fail article
India-NZ semi-final switched from fresh pitch to used surface
Basically there was an 'understanding' as to which pitches would be used for the games. The Indians ignored it for thiss match. The ICC Independent pitch consultant is said to be 'frustrated'.

The pitch is a 'slow' one according to Rohit Sharma as India bat first after winning the toss.
Big toss. India win and bat.
