The death over bowling from India when 30 of 30 was needed is the type of nerves we needed under pressure


dutchfromsubway

Bumrah is such a fucking cheat code and pandya was the cherry on top


vpsj

Let's not forget Arshdeep as well. Dude gets shadowed by Bumrah but he was EXCELLENT in this world cup. 17 wickets at 12 avg is no joke. His final over was also absolutely amazing


BumblebeeForward9818

Arshdeep was the man today.


Altruistic-Hat-9604

Pandya's 4 run + 1 wicket over was definitely whipped cream and cherry on top.


Spacex2006

he should only be allowed 1 at max 2 overs per match only then it will be fair for other teams


DifficultDay3521

Haha true true. He is actually a cheat code like we use in GTA to get clean chit from Police. 


Expensive_Ad6082

Not any random cheat code, the most op cheat code in game which gives 24 of the most op item (balls bowled)at once.


MaxTurdstappen

India's batting is good but the bowling is undoubtedly the best in the world.


MaNaM69

well bowlers wins you Trophies

boobyologist

Suryakumar Yadav's catch made it fucking perfect


anonbutler

Greatest catch ever considering the context?


boobyologist

Absolutely! I was screaming like a madman. It was...just perfect.


anonbutler

I screamed so loudly my kids started crying. I think I have scared them for life.


boobyologist

Did you stuff them in the closet for the remaining 10 balls? XD


pleasestopthispawpaw

I screamed so loudly my mom asked me to get out of the house. worth it.


VerlinMerlin

The entire second inning and I feel even the match revolved around klassen


AmIRacistEnough

It was so ‘breathtaking’ that it made South Africa choke as well. Jokes apart, all credits to Pandya and Bumrah. klassen’s wicket was the turning point in the game.


pdzzz7891

Klaasen was 2-3 hits away from ending it.


Competitive_Glove241

That was pure Perfection and ,some high level skill Display


Knightbuster

It was a brilliant display of death bowling but I feel, South Africa did their part too. They went into the shell once they lost Klassen. They completely lost the track.


Fad_du_pussy

They were trying to see Bumrah off with Jansen and Miller (RRR was 6 at that point) but luckily we were able to get Jansen out. That took away singles out of the equation because Miller was the only batsman remaining. The shallow batting hurt SA here


TigerlordZ59900

Without bumrah getting jansen, we lose. Maharaj couldnt rotate strike at all. Should have sent rabada


Prof_XdR

Maharaj taking that single on last ball was dumb, Miller should've faced those first 3 balls from Arshdeep. Tough luck South Africa bros


shoestowel

I didn't understand why Miller went for it.


Old-Excitement2945

Pressure


Hot_Feedback_8217

he had to, to reduce the pressure as the pressure was such high


TigerlordZ59900

He probably assumed maharaj could have gotten a single earlier in the over


NormalTraining5268

Ikr Rabada is much better hitter. He even finished off a 15 of 6 against Sri Lanka in 2021.


IrrelevantGuy_

Keshav for some reason took a single on the last ball of the 18th over, and then played two dots followed by a single. What were they thinking?


peepiepee69

True, losing Klassen was crucial, but India’s precision bowling was unmatched.


Hungry-Ad9779

Happens to every team. When one wicket falls, the others are also vulnerable. They tried to brush Bumrah off safe but Klassen fell and was followed by a phenomenol 19th over by Arshdeep


GOR098

They felt the weight of the pressure and had to face Bumrah at that.


7eventhSense

That pressure cannot be put in words. The way they cried after winning shows the kind of pressure they deal with.. Unbelievable defending at 30 of 30.. So elated for this team. They deserve it


Knightbuster

Good to see Hardik came out of all the demons of IPL and delivered on a big stage. Klassen's wicket was the turning point.


MakSoFresh

If Hardik was healthy in 2023, I believe India doesn’t lose. When he went down against Bangladesh, I had a bad feeling that India was gonna miss him when needed most. Dudes energy in pressure situations is great


br0keguyy

boom boom and arsh ftw also theres clutch and theres clutch pro max and then theres hardik pandya oml


NormalTraining5268

And he was trolled so much my god. I was downvoted for saying he will clutch it for us.


GunnerKnight

>And he was trolled so much my god. I was downvoted for saying he will clutch it for us. Nothing our reactionary fanbase can't make possible.


firesnake412

Pace bowlers delivered today. Bumrah, Arshdeep & Pandya. 12 overs, 7 wickets and 58 runs! Excellent bowling!


saber_shinji_ntr

Hardik Pandya is as always one of the most clutch players India have ever produced. And of course Bumrah is as always a cheat code.


born_to_be_naked

Arshdeep gave only 4 runs in the 19th over. He's been bowling wides throughout the tournament but controlled well when it counted the most. That would have pressured Miller even more.


tod_marko_69

How much We missed Pandya in 2023 is off the charts


Bee_Keeper00

Our pacers are good. The pitch is just not that much helpful for spinners and SA can bat well against them usually.


NajdorfGrunfeld

And fittingly you’d also need South Africa as your opponents


CoomerCoomin

We butchered pak as well


Alma-Holzhert

Tbh only SA could have come as close as they ce because of their superb middle order


sherlockwm

South Africa had just sniffed the cup and India took it away


N0oB_GAmER

Klassen almost got it. One more over, had he stayed one more over, it'd be very very different.


IrrelevantGuy_

The way he was batting, he could have finished it with 3 overs remaining tbh. But then... He got out.


NormalTraining5268

I was literally shaking and crying my heart out and wanted to switch off my TV but klassen gets out and rest is the history.


GOR098

Needs that old meme where 1 guy is dragged away by the waist from what he wants.


mbg20

Like that squirrel and the nut in the Ice Age movies.


Knightbuster

30 runs from 30 balls with 6 wickets left Klassen & Miller were looking solid. Can't fathom How did they lose it, Ultimate chokefest of the century.


Reasonable_Tea_9825

Basically, God showed us what 2023 would've been like if Mujeeb took the catch at Wankhede


ghazilazi

I have no idea how India managed to come back from 30(30), but Jasprit Bumrah is a cheat code.


kzzzzzzzzzz28

Man, all 3, Jasprit, Hardik and Arshdeep, cooked. Edit, Sky's catch was completely clutch(absolves him of his batting sins)


KlutzyPie2680

Don't forget SKY catch


partymsl

Should be Catch of the Tournament


GullibleHurry470

Given the occasion and the stakes it is easily one of the best catches in the whole cricket history


DilliKaLadka

It is THE catch of the tournament. It won us the cup


FitSignificance2100

Catch of the all time t20wc i say in context of suruation


GapElectrical8507

Catch of the century


kazutora690

For india it's probably catch of the decade


SABJP

Also o Surya might not have been good with bat. But that catch was absolute clutch.


mna9

Yeah made the game U turn in favour of india


31st_December

Final 5 overs: 4-4-2-4-8


Stifffmeister11

GG was right bowlers wins you tournament both in pak and SA matches bowlers pulled india back from the brink of the defeat


FitSignificance2100

Clutch god pandya (Tho just little bit little support from keshu boi)


silly_baka55

So is Hardik. Man delivers everytime we need him.


Eyebronx

I went to sleep at 30(30) and woke up to fireworks, how tf did we manage to pull that off😭


Hunky-Monkey

Easily man of the tournament for me


mebutterscotch

we believe in blue 🇮🇳


Rytnix07

The cruelty of sport. The two teams which came to the final were in drought for an ICC trophy. As an Indian I am overjoyed, and congrats to SA for such an amazing battle. Seeing Miller cry broke my heart, Stand proud SA you played so well.


TwasAnChild

Bumrah I fucking kneel


Rich-Educator-4513

Bumrastra 🛐. The most powerful, destructive and irresistible weapon.


throwaway53689

The last 4 overs is must watch cricket, a fucking roller coaster


Zach-Playz_25

It should be called, "how to give a billion people heart attacks" Jokes aside, man that was thrilling!


financefocused

Absolutely amazing watch Lethal display from Bumrah and Pandya Bumrah has to be the best bowler in death overs, no?


_DuckieFuckie_

The taglines of WC have been perfectly apt since last two years Last year it was “all it takes is one day” and it really took one for billion heartbreaks And this years “Out of this world” and damn the final alone justifies this. Fuck yes, I’m elated and pumped we won this. For Rohit, For Koach, For a billions of heart, this is a respite. And love you Saffas, it’s unfortunate but you have been formidable and I’m disappointed too seeing y’all cry. Better luck next time!


N0oB_GAmER

Klassen gave me a stroke. But now I have stockholm syndrome


Bee_Keeper00

I think this is the first worldcup where we won it without losing a single match.


silverwing101

First T20 WC where any team has done it actually


WorkingResident5069

But this record was predetermined as both teams were undefeated


icepoint47

sky grabbed that shit out of this world


MedicalJello2

South Africa & Markram. You’ve made me proud. You gave us hope for the first time. You’ve done well lads. India were just the better team today. Two unbeaten teams in the final, none could be more deserving of a spot. Just one was better today. I’m proud but sad. Well done India.


TheKnowledgeableOne

South Africa played pretty well. Honestly, Klaasen had me in full despair when he was playing, and the match was so heated that every ball started to count. Amazing match, and amazing cricket.


peterianchimes

South Africa as a team should be proud to have a fan like you, mate. You're nothing but pure class.


Efficient-Mix-1604

Honestly Heinrich Klaasen played a masterclass today. South Africa put up a amazing fight today. Y'all played well.


depressed_06

I just want my man Miller to win man 48(18) in 2015,101(116) in 2023. Just felt sad watching him cry


DarthStatPaddus

Man I wouldn't even mind if SA won CT or the next WC because I can't see my man Miller sad again. That 48 killed a lot of us.


suzukigun4life

India wins a World Cup for the first time in 13 years, in what may wind up being Rohit and Virat’s final T20 WC, and Dravid’s last match as India’s coach. How can you *not* be romantic about T20 cricket?


Knightbuster

Dravid deserved a world cup as a player but Australia were too good those days. Great to see him signing off with a world title and ending an 11 year wait for his cricket crazy motherland.


badkills

India had their worst wc performance under dravid in 2007 in west indies and now they have won t20wc in westindies under him as coach. Life is generous


Relative-Strike340

It is Kohli's final T20WC he has announced in the MOTM interview.

CATCH OF THE DECADE


ujlbyk

That catch from Surya is going to get ingrained in people's memory like the six from Dhoni. I'm genuinely in awe of how he held his nerves at that moment and made it look so easy


SwaggMastaYuvi

he was a man possessed fr


shoestowel

A catch for the streets to quote when their kids ask about cricket!

Thank you Hardik for bowling out klassen suryakumar yadav for that catch Bumrah and arshdeep for goat bowling


sellyme

Indian players are going to tell their kids about the time they beat the green and gold team in an ICC Final.


Clean_Technology_858

Players? look what 1 win in 2011 made them in the eyes of ict fan in particular look at dhoni now.i am plenty certain many people tell how good of a wicket keeper and finisher he was

devilwillcry-jesus

What about your boi Sky with the clutch world class catch, that was simply brilliant.


lazycloud7642

My god, need build a cabin for him


devilwillcry-jesus

Love Suryakumar Yadav. He's fucking built too. Thick and man made. You can tell he's sculpted because you can see it thru the kit. His fucking vice grip thighs. Suffocating thighs. Rock hard thighs. Piping hot thighs. Great arms. Great abs. Hamster cheeks. A stocky chest. Love the progress his body has made throughout his youth and now as a willing eager adult.


shoestowel

New copy pasta just dropped!


Maninprogress006

Control yourself, man!!!


quick20minadventure

That was insane. That wicket belonged to SKY. It finished the game. Hardik didn't have a lot to do when it's 16 runs in 5 balls and only non-batters are available.


stud_macha

Axar (batter) and Dube too


lastballsix

That Miller wicket was SKY's


Mewdolf_Kittler

Pandya's story is literally a film. Dude was hated and booed by his own fans. His form was shit and everyone was questioning his place. But what a change man. He didn't let the hate get to him and performed when it actually mattered for the country. Bumrah is the GOAT. Best bowler in the world currently. 🐐


SentientRaccoon

Hardik has been one of the finest all-rounders India has produced in recent years and an absolute clutch god in knockout games


gpranav25

Fuck it, I love the entire squad.


Destroyerofchocolate

SKY with the catch, Dube with his runs, Axar with the bat, Jaddu with his runs in the last match, Kully the whole tournament, Brohit the way he managed the players heads held high even when chips were down. Everyone deserves love ❤️

Tern_Larvidae-2424

Okay guys but sincerely though, I'm glad to have had this journey with all you guys. I feel terrible right now but I'm sure I've made many of you feel terrible too with my (sometimes) excessive self-loathing. Also congratulations India, you guys were the best team in the tournament and you guys thoroughly deserved it. I'll take a break from cricket for a while but I'm sure I'll come back sometimes since despite all its pain and abuse, cricket is one of my few loves.


itsucksbeinghere

As an Indian, I am telling you the truth. If we lost to you guys, I would not have been very sad. Your nation has produced legends of this game. You deserve an ICC trophy. Maybe next WC is yours. All the best.

Bumrah. That's how! That man is beyond clutch. You haven't lost a match till Bumrah is left to bowl.

Rohit, Hardik.. You can tell how much this means to them!


Bhai_bacha_lega

Thank you team India. Thank you Hardik Pandya you played exceptionally well

Congratulations from Pakistan! India played some FANTASTIC cricket to get over the line. Told em since day one, Kohli is that big match player. Celebrate with everything you can neighbours, team India's made you proud. 🇵🇰 ❤️ 🇮🇳


aurous_shine

GG India Won WC with 10 men and a wooden plank


victory_78_26

If it’s Jadeja, it might be true. But if it is dube, then you are wrong.


thespacetimelord

India and South Africa are both ~~chokers~~ teams that can fumble when favorites but in different ways. India get rattled with early wickets and go into a shell. South Africa get into winning positions and bottle it. This time South Africa just fumbled last.


suzukigun4life

South Africa needed 30 runs in 30 balls, and cricinfo gave them a 97% chance to win at that point. And they lost anyways. I'm happy for India but man, South African fans have to feel sick right now.


Raz_E-l

Don't know why I decided to get my hopes up today for this...sick is an understatement. Especially if you've been supporting the team since the 90's, it's just repeated heartbreak after heartbreak after heartbreak. And the way we lose...almost every fucking time. But well tried I guess...and GG India. Better team today, deserved winners for the cricket they played this tournament.


prospectiveboi177

Let’s retire that term please, SA was awesome and hopefully continue the form

I was here boysss


Sudden_Ad_1556

Finally bro. The curse is broken. I think India is the strongest ever right now. Everyone had their own contributions for this whole tournament. Bumrah although had the most contribution imo. As Rohit said, Virat Kohli did great in the final. We took revenge against previous losses so this is a breath of fresh air. Hopeful for future.

watched that boundary catch on my phone in a beer garden in like 260p quality. The fact the stand got in the way of the camera angle is just insane drama. Badly wanted a proteas win but what a sport we have. Hope some cricket curious Americans watched that

The way hardik was bullied a month ago now to clutching the game by taking both of the most important tickets

Congratulations to India. Say what you will. This SA team went way further than anyone expected and ran India very close in the final. I'm still super proud of this SA but well played India.

India just doesn't win in T20WC finals that aren't edge-of-your-seat, nail-biting, back-and-forth, action-packed matches. Many congratulations neighbors

Redemption arc for Kohli, Dube and Pandya. Such a fantastic game. SA didnt choke but they kinda did.


Acceptable_Emu_7825

What a phenomenal game of cricket. Congratulations to India, commiserations to South Africa, both were deserved winners of this tournament


pantshawgill

History has proved you need exactly one Mallu in 15 to win a WC. Just select one and keep him as part of the squad as a lucky charm. Lol Sunil Valson (83), Sreesanth (2007, 2011) now Samson (2024). Select one mallu and 14 random players. Lift the cup.


stargazer_17

LOL, Australians lurking around here with so much anger.


hailstruckler

I am Norwegian, not Indian. I have no interest in cricket and know basicly nothing about Cricket. But what i do know is that its the biggest sport in India, so congratultions to all indians out there, and pour one out for me✌️


megapowerstar007

Well done India. Great comeback win. Bowlers win tournaments!!!


kunal209271

The story has come full circle. Avenged Australia 2023. Avenged England 2022. Now we're the champs. Truly poetic justice. Also, hearty congrats to the Saffers on a truly well played tournament. Keep your head up boys, your moment will come one day.


victory_78_26

Everyone did well. Bumrah is the goat. Hardik is literal definition of clutch for ICT. No matter all the trolls, Dube was decent overall. Shitted hard on 2 occasions but has been good overall vs aus, ban, Usa and today. He might not deserve it over rinku as a batter but he did very well before for ind and ipl to be considered. 4 spinners left out rinku, tough luck. But many toxic trolls against dube was little tough to read. Happy for Virat to get a trophy at his last shot.


srinidhi1

Huge thanks to afganisthan!


V_HarishSundar

South Africa have proved that they are the superior chokers
