What's the AFL equivalent of winning by 6 wickets with 7 overs to spare?
10 goals?
It was a common flogging

They always do.
They are very quick to defend or talk up - often baselessly - England, but they are pretty fair with their praise of Australia. Having both spent most of their careers being flogged by them they’ve seen enough to know when to give a wrap

I think you’re half right.
I do think you’re selling the Aussies short though, they had a lot of self belief, but they didn’t throw caution to the wind, they were measured in their approach.
I feel like Australia played like a team that had planned and was willing to grind for 100 overs to win.
India played like a side which wanted to blow the opposition away in 20 overs and then cruise the rest. You saw it in the way they responded after Sharma got out, and the way they responded once Trav started to get going. In both instances they got momentum and then expected to bulldoze through. Which is kind of understandable when you have the tournament they did, but finals cricket rarely works like that, and when they lost control they looked defeated.

It’s sad, but opposition commentators actually show the current team far more respect than our own do.

Yep, fair call. I probably didn't explain it very well. Australia had a very clear game plan for the day.
But do I think Australia win regardless of toss and who batted/bowled first. India didn't deal with the pressure.

He also said England had a bad world cup because they'd just come off an ashes series.

I just love how the Indians are complaining they were beaten by a pitch that they doctoredCarrying on that bowling first gave Australia the advantage when Rohit Sharma said he'd have batted first anyway. After putting up with England's crap, and now from India, I'm almost over international cricket.
Are you kidding? This makes it much more enjoyable.

I am Kaif haha
Warnie's little nugget in his book 5 years ago no one noticed has re-surfaced after Kaif has made a fool of himself this week.
At times his agenda was annoying when it came to certain things.
But Warnie was still face and centre & keeping cricket relevant even after retirement.
If he was still us he would still be shit stirring his good mate Graeme Smith, Daryl Cullinan and the Saffas after another Semi Final loss.
And giving it to the Indians after the final if he was still here.
He would have been jabbing the Poms as well about there woeful WC.

Well he did say "as well as he could have" In the WTC it was a full-on dummy spit, in the WC it was a 3/4 dummy spit.
So progress I suppose?

What they real headline should be "India stunned by Australia's pitch knowledge".
What they assumed was an advantage was turned in to a weakness

Ashwin described Australia as "tactically outstanding" while also noting that the Australian hierarchy had done their homework regarding the conditions at the Narendra Modi Stadium.

I just think it was the first time, certainly for the tournament, that India's batting was tested, and it came up short. I was saying all along that it will be interesting to see what sort of score India would make if their tail enders had to bat for a change.
I had to look him up. Don't remember him at all.
