Stunning performance from Kohli. He has kept India in the comp twice now.

Piece of cake. That's how to close a game out. Great knock

What a talent .. sheer cricketing genius. The way he took apart Faulkner on the 18th was incredible. Very orthodox. He has come a long way from leading India Jr to the Jr world cup about 5-7 yrs ago.
Also due credit to Dhoni... They ran the 2s like mad men. He is also the cool head vs the mercurial Kohli..
The celebration in Mumbai is deafening with fire crackers going off and its 11pm.. love it..

Agree... But as Kohli mentioned in the post match interview, Yuvi had decided to go after the ballers ... And he has the skill to stand and clear the ropes. But I agree they shod have kept him in play and stifled Kohli..
On another note it is great to see Yuvi overcome cancer and play at international cricket. He is a bit of a marmite, but very useful.

Remember his comeback vividly, such a great sight to see him return after what he had been through! Feels like hes been underbowled in the tournament so far too. hope hes fit to play the knockouts

Popcorn ready for NZ v Eng today..
The joke on the Indian social media,...Apparently the Windies have figured out their game plan against Kohli.... They won't take any wickets and let the openers play 20 overs...

Only problem is Sharma and Dhawan are unable to bat much beyond the powerplay (if they get that far) before handing their wicket on a plate to the bowler!

Just watch the last 10 overs of the womens game and they went out with a wimper lets hope the men at least give it a go.
Going back in history I was at the England v West Indies world cup final in 1979 when Brearley and Boycott lost the match for England by playing in test match mode. Clive Lloyd, a fine fielder in his day, dropped Brearley at one point and the conspiracy theorists were adamant it was done deliberately. Lloyd was probably too honest to do that but it was not the toughest catch and he had hands like buckets so.............
Back to Kholi, it was a magnificent knock. He used his head, batted properly and did something very special indeed. Well done that man.

Painful watching women's 20/20 cricket (duck for cover now). Just don't have the power that 20/20 demands now.

Women's cricket - Monkey Tennis. Another reason for this equal pay argument to be put to bed for good.
What I would pay to see is Joe Root absolutely knock that dachscund for six with his bat in one of the adverts.

Great to see Chris Jordan coming back over the last couple of games, shuts the ill informed haters up! England's best bowler in this format, one of the very best in the world at getting his yorkers in.
Even when he was getting caned on here he actually bowled his overs at less than 10, when the average for the game was over 11.5! Bowled the rest of the tournament at less 7 an over!
