[Cricket] ICC Cricket World Cup 2023- Final- India v Australia

[Beanstalk]

The greatest one day innings of all time. Outrageous from Maxwell ffs.

 

[Steve in Japan]

You've got to hand it to Maxwell, unbelievable really.

 

[Pevenseagull]

This is surely the greatest ODI innings ever played.

Nah, his footwork for the second century was awful

 

[The Wizard]

201* scored from a total of 293, that’s just unbelievable.

 

[tedebear]

I take back my previous comment about us being in the poop! We were 7 for 91....seems I was not justified in my panic. Maxwell for PM...

 

[PeterT]

Yep - great innings, really happy for them

 

[Audax]

That's ... we won't see many innings as good as that.

 

[A1X]

If you think I'm in any way praising any sort of Australian victory in any form of cricket under any circumstances then you're absolutely wrong.

There are standards which should be maintained.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Maxwell scored 190 of an 8th wicket partnership of 202.

Cummins scored 12.

Bonkers.

Bonkers.

Not quite as many as that. There were some extras during that partnership.

 

[crodonilson]

An incredible innings, an absolute joy and privilege to watch.

Huge game now for England tomorrow in their brave quest for a top 8 finish and the promised land of Champions Trophy 2025. Listening to Eoin Morgan who described these next 2 games as 'like World Cup finals', and couldn't over emphasize the importance of them for England.

For their sakes and Matt Mott's let's hope they go well tomorrow and out a smile back on the nation's cricketing face.

 

[Pevenseagull]

A privilege to have followed such an exceptional sporting event.

Ruined somewhat by bloody Australia winning.

Jim Maxwell ?

 

[Eeyore]

The greatest one day innings of all time. Outrageous from Maxwell ffs.

You'd judge these things in context, but this innings seems to cover all avenues.

Viv Richards 189 at Old Trafford in 1984 was the previous best for me.

Ah well, another day, another dismal England performance?

This got lost during Maxwell's phenomenal innings yesterday but if anyone is in Amsterdam already and wants to watch the game, you can find it here:

It's being streamed by the Dutch equivalent of the BBC.

72/1 in the 11th over.

Nice to see the plucky underdogs making a good start. We might actually see a decent contest today.

Nelson time...

and survived!
115-1

 

[golddene]

Root gone !

Crazy run from Malan there. I'd love to be a fly on the wall in the English changing room. I bet his equipment is flying round right now...
