NUMBER 3 LOADING????<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n VENUE STATS:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. <\/p>\n\n PITCH REPORT:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n RAVI SHASTRI: "It Seems pretty dry on the surface. There are some patches, especially in the spots of spinners. Batting first and putting runs on the board is a great thing but a team like India that has all departments covered won't be bothered."<\/strong><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n TOSS: <\/p>\n\n Pat Cummins(Australia Captain): "Looks like this is a dry wicket and we chose to field first. Dew is one factor and it is quite dewy in the evening at this venue. Have been really proud of the bunch. Tough start to the tournament but they haven't looked back since. Same team for us!"<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n Powerplay (1-10 Overs) :-<\/strong> Middle overs (11-40 Overs) :-<\/strong> Death overs (41-50 Overs) :-<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n In this thrilling World Cup final at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium, Australia emerged victorious against India, securing their sixth World Cup title. Australia Winning the toss and opting to bat first, India faced a formidable Australian bowling attack. Despite facing early setbacks, Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul anchored the innings with gritty half-centuries, guiding India to a competitive total of 240 runs. Australia's bowlers, led by Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood, showcased their prowess, putting up a disciplined performance to restrict India. The Indian innings featured notable contributions from Rahul, Rohit, and Virat Kohli, who scored a crucial fifty. Chasing the target, Australia encountered a masterclass from Travis Head, who played a sensational knock of 137 runs. Head's innings, characterized by 15 boundaries and 4 sixes, proved to be the turning point, earning him the well-deserved Player of the Match award. Despite India's spirited efforts, the Australian middle-order, featuring Marnus Labuschagne, played sensible cricket to secure the victory with seven overs to spare. While Australia celebrated their triumph, the final showcased the resilience of the Indian team, providing cricket fans with a riveting encounter between two cricketing powerhouses. The clash added another memorable chapter to the historic rivalry between India and Australia, leaving fans eagerly anticipating future battles on the cricket field.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n Travis Head (Man of the Match):" What an amazing day it is! Just super thrilled to be a part of this team. It's a lot better than seeing the World Cup from home. I was a little bit nervous initially but Marnus played exceptionally well and took up all the pressure. I feel the way Marsh took the game on setting the tone and that was the energy we needed. It was a great option to bowl first and the pitch got better as the game progressed. Again, it is something that I work hard on, and nice to hold on and give it all in front of a full house crowd. "<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n VIRAT KOHLI IS THE MAN OF THE TOURNAMENT . 765 RUNS IN 11 INNINGS <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n Rohit Sharma (India Captain): "I mean the result has not gone our way and we know that we are not 100% today. But proud of this bunch. Honestly, 20-30 runs would have been effective. I thought when Rahul and Virat were batting, we were looking at the score of 270-280 at that point and wickets fell in continuous intervals. Australia had a huge partnership after losing three wickets initially. With 240 on the scorecard, we wanted initial wickets but huge credit to Head and Labuschagne. The wicket got better to bat under the lights. We knew under lights, it'd be better but do not want to give that as an excuse. Credit to Australian batters for that 3rd wicket partnership.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n Pat Cummins (Australia Captain): "I think we saved our best for the final. We have been defending the totals in the whole tournament and we thought it was a great night to chase the target. Magnificent. Marnus has a cool head and Head does what he does on the huge stage, Head shows a lot of character in him. I was pretty happy throughout the bowling. If you look around it is a special moment. You have to go out there and win the World Cup, you cannot wait for this to happen."<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","MatchRow":11,"ProjectedScore":"280","2ndProjectedScore":"0","3rdProjectedScore":"0","MOM":"Travis Head","MOM_TYPE":"","MOMPlayerId":"37","MOMRuns":"137","MOMBalls":"120","MOMWicket":"0","MOMRC":"4","MOMImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/fYkyMoyaY4167897031737.png","KO":"Final"},{"CompetitionID":118,"MatchID":1246,"MatchTypeID":1,"MatchType":"One Day D\/N","MatchStatus":"Post","MatchDate":"2023-11-15","MatchDateNew":"15 Nov 2023","MatchName":"India vs New Zealand","MatchTime":"14:00","GMTMatchTime":"08:30 GMT","GMTMatchDate":"2023-11-15","FirstBattingTeamID":1,"FirstBattingTeamName":"India","SecondBattingTeamID":4,"SecondBattingTeamName":"New Zealand","FirstBattingTeamCode":"IND","SecondBattingTeamCode":"NZ","GroundID":21,"GroundName":"Wankhede Stadium","Commentss":"India Won by 70 Runs ","TossTeam":"India","TossDetails":"India Won The Toss And Elected To Bat","TossText":" Won The Toss And Elected To Bat","Flag":1,"FirstBattingSummary":"397\/4 (50.0 Ov)","SecondBattingSummary":"327\/10 (48.5 Ov)","ClientMatchID":"","MATCH_COMMENCE_START_DATE":"2023-11-15 14:00:00","city":"Mumbai","FlickrAlbumID":"","LiveStream":"","FBURL":"","T20ProMatchID":"","Temperature":"","WeatherIcon":"","TempUpdatedDate":"","GroundUmpire1ID":143,"GroundUmpire2ID":299,"GroundUmpire3ID":3,"RefereeID":84,"HomeTeamID":"1","HomeTeamName":"India","HomeTeamColor1":"","HomeTeamColor2":"","AwayTeamColor1":"","AwayTeamColor2":"","AwayTeamID":"4","AwayTeamName":"New Zealand","timezone1":"Asia\/Kolkata","MatchEndDate":"15 Nov 2023","MatchEndTime":"22:00","MATCH_NO_OF_OVERS":"50","ROUND_ID":"13","MatchTypeName":"ODI","RowNo":10,"TeamType":null,"CompetitionName":"Icc Mens World Cup 2023","GroundUmpire1":"Richard Illingworth","GroundUmpire2":"Rod Tucker","ThirdUmpire":"Joel Wilson","Comments":"India Won by 70 Runs ","HomeTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/india.png","AwayTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/new_zealand.png","MatchHomeTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/india.png","MatchAwayTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/new_zealand.png","VideoScorecard":0,"TimeZone":"+9.5","CurrentStrikerID":"2019-100mb00000000069-7aeb5c411e3711","CurrentStrikerName":"Lockie Ferguson","StrikerRuns":6,"StrikerBalls":3,"StrikerFours":0,"StrikerSixes":1,"StrikerSR":200,"StrikerImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/TckLjURDuG169701769569.png","CurrentNonStrikerID":"2019-100mb00000000066-573f78a31e3711","CurrentNonStrikerName":"Trent Boult","NonStrikerRuns":2,"NonStrikerBalls":2,"NonStrikerFours":0,"NonStrikerSixes":0,"NonStrikerSR":100,"NonStrikerImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/ROjvtluMDr169701792166.png","CurrentBowlerID":"2018-100mb00000000047-1bfc8ff2f88b11","CurrentBowlerName":"Mohammad Shami","BowlerOvers":"9.5","BowlerRuns":57,"BowlerMaidens":0,"BowlerWickets":7,"BowlerEconomy":5.8,"BowlerSR":8.42,"BowlerImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/qkpMleyGnS169684366447.png","ChasingText":"","MatchBreakComments":"","MatchProgress":"100","CurrentInnings":"2","1Summary":"397\/4 (50.0 Overs)","1FallScore":"397","1FallWickets":"4","1FallOvers":"50.0","1RunRate":"7.94","2Summary":"327\/10 (48.5 Overs)","2FallScore":"327","2FallWickets":"10","2FallOvers":"48.5","2RunRate":"6.7","3Summary":"","3FallScore":"","3FallWickets":"","3FallOvers":"","3RunRate":"","4Summary":"","4FallScore":"","4FallWickets":"","4FallOvers":"","4RunRate":"","5Summary":"","5FallScore":"","5FallWickets":"","5FallOvers":"","5RunRate":"","6Summary":"","6FallScore":"","6FallWickets":"","6FallOvers":"","6RunRate":"","DivisionID":"2","SecondInningsFirstBattingID":null,"SecondInningsFirstBattingName":"","SecondInningsSecondBattingID":null,"SecondInningsSecondBattingName":"","ThirdInningsFirstBattingID":null,"ThirdInningsFirstBattingName":"","ThirdInningsSecondBattingID":null,"ThirdInningsSecondBattingName":"","WinningTeamID":"1","MatchOrder":"Semi Final","RevisedOver":"","RevisedTarget":"","PreMatchCommentary":" Good Noon, Indian cricket fans, and welcome to the iconic Wankhede Stadium for what promises to be a riveting World Cup semi-final clash between the mighty hosts, India, and the strategically adept New Zealand!

Disappointing to go out of the tournament. You come in and get 400, it's a check in the box. They deserve to be here. The crowd was fantastic, unbelievable atmosphere, but special to be part of the World Cup, great to be hosted by India. We had some super contributions, Rachin and Mitchell were super special throughout the World Cup, on different surfaces. They played exceptionally well. Bowlers gave in, a lot of fight. Even if it did not go our way, moving forward as a team, we have taken some really good steps in the right direction."<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n Mohammed Shami(Man of the Match): "I was waiting for my opportunities. I did not play a lot of ODI Cricket. My return started against Kiwis in Dharamsala. I still believe in pitching it up and getting wickets with the new ball moving. I have dropped Williamson's catch, I shouldn't have done it. I felt terrible about that. But the focus was to vary the pace and see if they were hitting it in the air. The wicket was very good to bat, lots of runs were scored. It felt amazing after these kinds of performances. Last couple of World Cups, we lost in the semis. So, we wanted to do everything for this, this is the only chance we didn't want to let go of this."<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n Rohit Sharma (India Captain): We all have played a lot of cricket here, it's not over until the final ball. We knew we would be tested. Our plan is to stay calm and execute the plan, we had some unfortunate moments in the field but we backed each other and always tried to get back on track. Williamson and Mitchell played a crucial knock. The energy went down a bit but we stuck to the plan and knew that we needed to break the partnership. Shami shifted the momentum and stepped up when mattered the most. Happy to see what our batters are capable of during these kinds of situations. Gill & Iyer with a crucial knock of 80 and 105 and Kohli added another feather to his cap. Semifinal adds a bit of extra pressure, we just wanted to repeat what we have done throughout the tournament."<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","MatchRow":10,"ProjectedScore":"335","2ndProjectedScore":"0","3rdProjectedScore":"0","MOM":"Mohammad Shami","MOM_TYPE":"","MOMPlayerId":"47","MOMRuns":"-","MOMBalls":"-","MOMWicket":"7","MOMRC":"57","MOMImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/qkpMleyGnS169684366447.png","KO":"Semi Final"},{"CompetitionID":118,"MatchID":1130,"MatchTypeID":1,"MatchType":"One Day D\/N","MatchStatus":"Post","MatchDate":"2023-11-12","MatchDateNew":"12 Nov 2023","MatchName":"India vs Netherlands","MatchTime":"14:00","GMTMatchTime":"08:30 GMT","GMTMatchDate":"2023-11-12","FirstBattingTeamID":1,"FirstBattingTeamName":"India","SecondBattingTeamID":27,"SecondBattingTeamName":"Netherlands","FirstBattingTeamCode":"IND","SecondBattingTeamCode":"NED","GroundID":12,"GroundName":"M Chinnaswamy Stadium","Commentss":"India Won by 160 Runs ","TossTeam":"India","TossDetails":"India Won The Toss And Elected To Bat","TossText":" Won The Toss And Elected To Bat","Flag":1,"FirstBattingSummary":"410\/4 (50.0 Ov)","SecondBattingSummary":"250\/10 (47.5 Ov)","ClientMatchID":"","MATCH_COMMENCE_START_DATE":"2023-11-12 14:00:00","city":"Bengaluru","FlickrAlbumID":"","LiveStream":"","FBURL":"","T20ProMatchID":"","Temperature":"","WeatherIcon":"","TempUpdatedDate":"","GroundUmpire1ID":29,"GroundUmpire2ID":34,"GroundUmpire3ID":3,"RefereeID":171,"HomeTeamID":"1","HomeTeamName":"India","HomeTeamColor1":"","HomeTeamColor2":"","AwayTeamColor1":"","AwayTeamColor2":"","AwayTeamID":"27","AwayTeamName":"Netherlands","timezone1":"Asia\/Kolkata","MatchEndDate":"12 Nov 2023","MatchEndTime":"22:30","MATCH_NO_OF_OVERS":"50","ROUND_ID":"0","MatchTypeName":"ODI","RowNo":9,"TeamType":null,"CompetitionName":"Icc Mens World Cup 2023","GroundUmpire1":"Chris Gaffaney","GroundUmpire2":"Michael Gough","ThirdUmpire":"Joel Wilson","Comments":"India Won by 160 Runs ","HomeTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/india.png","AwayTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/kncb.png","MatchHomeTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/india.png","MatchAwayTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/kncb.png","VideoScorecard":0,"TimeZone":"+9.5","CurrentStrikerID":"2022-100mb00000001470-106806f3507111","CurrentStrikerName":"Teja Nidamanuru","StrikerRuns":54,"StrikerBalls":39,"StrikerFours":1,"StrikerSixes":6,"StrikerSR":138.46,"StrikerImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/nQCeL7KpHs16974379201470.png","CurrentNonStrikerID":"ee37d61f2f2540a692ad37eecca008a","CurrentNonStrikerName":"Paul Van Meekeren","NonStrikerRuns":3,"NonStrikerBalls":4,"NonStrikerFours":0,"NonStrikerSixes":0,"NonStrikerSR":75,"NonStrikerImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/5M6X05sAYC1697438532675.png","CurrentBowlerID":"2018-100mb00000000006-2cf4bba8e99b11","CurrentBowlerName":"Rohit Sharma","BowlerOvers":"0.5","BowlerRuns":7,"BowlerMaidens":0,"BowlerWickets":1,"BowlerEconomy":8.4,"BowlerSR":5,"BowlerImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/hdhX2xbYOK16968439676.png","ChasingText":"","MatchBreakComments":"","MatchProgress":"97.83","CurrentInnings":"2","1Summary":"410\/4 (50.0 Overs)","1FallScore":"410","1FallWickets":"4","1FallOvers":"50.0","1RunRate":"8.2","2Summary":"250\/10 (47.5 Overs)","2FallScore":"250","2FallWickets":"10","2FallOvers":"47.5","2RunRate":"5.23","3Summary":"","3FallScore":"","3FallWickets":"","3FallOvers":"","3RunRate":"","4Summary":"","4FallScore":"","4FallWickets":"","4FallOvers":"","4RunRate":"","5Summary":"","5FallScore":"","5FallWickets":"","5FallOvers":"","5RunRate":"","6Summary":"","6FallScore":"","6FallWickets":"","6FallOvers":"","6RunRate":"","DivisionID":"2","SecondInningsFirstBattingID":null,"SecondInningsFirstBattingName":"","SecondInningsSecondBattingID":null,"SecondInningsSecondBattingName":"","ThirdInningsFirstBattingID":null,"ThirdInningsFirstBattingName":"","ThirdInningsSecondBattingID":null,"ThirdInningsSecondBattingName":"","WinningTeamID":"1","MatchOrder":"Match 45","RevisedOver":"","RevisedTarget":"","PreMatchCommentary":" Hello, we are elated in wishing the fans of the Indian Cricket team a Very Happy Diwali<\/strong> and we welcome to the live coverage of the final league fixture where India takes on the Netherlands at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.

After calling it right at the toss, Rohit opted to bat first and took the Men in Blue to a blistering start, scoring 91 runs inside the Powerplay, after which the major headline of the day was Virat Kohli's record-equalling 49th ODI century on his 35th birthday, at the ground where he got his 1st international century <\/strong><\/span>, helping India post a mammoth total of 326\/5 at the end of the innings. After the break, the Indian bowlers continued their turmoil with the ball, picking up 3 wickets inside the Powerplay and bundling out South Africa for just 83, headlined by Jadeja's 5-wicket haul this time. The Men in Blue confirm their place at the top of the table<\/strong><\/span>, have bundled out the opposition in 6 of the 8 matches, and are the only team this World Cup to not get all out. Can they continue this momentum and domination for the rest of the tournament? Join us on November 12th for India's last league game against the Netherlands at Bangalore.<\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n Temba Bavuma, South Africa Skipper:<\/strong><\/span> "We know it was a challenge. We had had our conversations with our batters. They got 90 in the first 10 overs and we did well after that, curbed down the run-rate. We were not able to adapt unfortunately. Potentially, we might play again here in the semis."<\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n Rohit Sharma, India Skipper:<\/strong><\/span> "If you look at how we have played in the last three games, we have adapted better. We let our instincts take over, we don't preplan anything, we just assess and play accordingly. Jadeja has been very good for us playing in every format over the years. Today was a classical case as to what Jadeja is for us, came out at the death and scored vital runs, and then picked up wickets. Not to get too ahead of ourselves has been the talk in the dressing room, a couple of big games coming up and we don't want to change anything."<\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n\n Virat Kohli is the Player of the Match<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n Virat Kohli:<\/strong><\/span> "It was a big game, probably playing the toughest team in the tournament. There was a motivation to do well. Because it happened on my birthday, it became special and the people made it more special for me. As the ball got older, the conditions slowed down drastically. The message was clear, to keep batting around me. I’m enjoying myself, playing cricket all over again, which is more important to me than phases. I’m just happy that God has blessed me with that enjoyment. It’s a very emotional moment for me, I know where I come from, I know the days I have watched Sachin Tendulkar on TV, and just to get that appreciation from him means a lot to me."<\/p>\n","MatchRow":8,"ProjectedScore":"153","2ndProjectedScore":"0","3rdProjectedScore":"0","MOM":"Virat Kohli","MOM_TYPE":"","MOMPlayerId":"2","MOMRuns":"101","MOMBalls":"121","MOMWicket":"-","MOMRC":"-","MOMImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/wuADBl7K6b16968437022.png","KO":""},{"CompetitionID":118,"MatchID":1128,"MatchTypeID":1,"MatchType":"One Day D\/N","MatchStatus":"Post","MatchDate":"2023-11-02","MatchDateNew":"2 Nov 2023","MatchName":"India vs Sri Lanka","MatchTime":"14:00","GMTMatchTime":"08:30 GMT","GMTMatchDate":"2023-11-02","FirstBattingTeamID":1,"FirstBattingTeamName":"India","SecondBattingTeamID":6,"SecondBattingTeamName":"Sri Lanka","FirstBattingTeamCode":"IND","SecondBattingTeamCode":"SL","GroundID":21,"GroundName":"Wankhede Stadium","Commentss":"India Won by 302 Runs ","TossTeam":"Sri Lanka","TossDetails":"Sri Lanka Won The Toss And Elected To Field","TossText":" Won The Toss And Elected To Field","Flag":1,"FirstBattingSummary":"357\/8 (50.0 Ov)","SecondBattingSummary":"55\/10 (19.4 Ov)","ClientMatchID":"","MATCH_COMMENCE_START_DATE":"2023-11-02 14:00:00","city":"Mumbai","FlickrAlbumID":"","LiveStream":"","FBURL":"","T20ProMatchID":"","Temperature":"","WeatherIcon":"","TempUpdatedDate":"","GroundUmpire1ID":40,"GroundUmpire2ID":407,"GroundUmpire3ID":299,"RefereeID":79,"HomeTeamID":"1","HomeTeamName":"India","HomeTeamColor1":"","HomeTeamColor2":"","AwayTeamColor1":"","AwayTeamColor2":"","AwayTeamID":"6","AwayTeamName":"Sri Lanka","timezone1":"Asia\/Kolkata","MatchEndDate":"2 Nov 2023","MatchEndTime":"22:30","MATCH_NO_OF_OVERS":"50","ROUND_ID":"0","MatchTypeName":"ODI","RowNo":7,"TeamType":null,"CompetitionName":"Icc Mens World Cup 2023","GroundUmpire1":"Chris Brown","GroundUmpire2":"Paul Reiffel","ThirdUmpire":"Rod Tucker","Comments":"India Won by 302 Runs ","HomeTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/india.png","AwayTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/srilanka.png?v=2","MatchHomeTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/india.png","MatchAwayTeamLogo":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/teamlogos\/srilanka.png?v=2","VideoScorecard":0,"TimeZone":"+9.5","CurrentStrikerID":"2022-100mb00000001018-8d2e94c8cf9611","CurrentStrikerName":"Dilshan Madushanka","StrikerRuns":5,"StrikerBalls":6,"StrikerFours":1,"StrikerSixes":0,"StrikerSR":83.33,"StrikerImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/jk3dcbN4Hz16974374151018.png","CurrentNonStrikerID":"2021-100mb00000000629-11c540100bd311","CurrentNonStrikerName":"Maheesh Theekshana","NonStrikerRuns":12,"NonStrikerBalls":23,"NonStrikerFours":2,"NonStrikerSixes":0,"NonStrikerSR":52.17,"NonStrikerImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/HuxOc8ojHw1697437795629.png","CurrentBowlerID":"2018-100mb00000000046-06b5ba89f88b11","CurrentBowlerName":"Ravindra Jadeja","BowlerOvers":"0.4","BowlerRuns":4,"BowlerMaidens":0,"BowlerWickets":1,"BowlerEconomy":6,"BowlerSR":4,"BowlerImage":"https:\/\/scores.bcci.tv\/matchcentre\/playerimages\/uk7obS3yP9169684377946.png","ChasingText":"","MatchBreakComments":"","MatchProgress":"69.67","CurrentInnings":"2","1Summary":"357\/8 (50.0 Overs)","1FallScore":"357","1FallWickets":"8","1FallOvers":"50.0","1RunRate":"7.14","2Summary":"55\/10 (19.4 Overs)","2FallScore":"55","2FallWickets":"10","2FallOvers":"19.4","2RunRate":"2.8","3Summary":"","3FallScore":"","3FallWickets":"","3FallOvers":"","3RunRate":"","4Summary":"","4FallScore":"","4FallWickets":"","4FallOvers":"","4RunRate":"","5Summary":"","5FallScore":"","5FallWickets":"","5FallOvers":"","5RunRate":"","6Summary":"","6FallScore":"","6FallWickets":"","6FallOvers":"","6RunRate":"","DivisionID":"2","SecondInningsFirstBattingID":null,"SecondInningsFirstBattingName":"","SecondInningsSecondBattingID":null,"SecondInningsSecondBattingName":"","ThirdInningsFirstBattingID":null,"ThirdInningsFirstBattingName":"","ThirdInningsSecondBattingID":null,"ThirdInningsSecondBattingName":"","WinningTeamID":"1","MatchOrder":"Match 33","RevisedOver":"","RevisedTarget":"","PreMatchCommentary":" Hello and welcome to the live coverage of India's Game 7 in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, against the Lankan Lions as the action moves to the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

I was trying to hit it straight. Get into a good position and after that, it is just my followthrough!"<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n
\nRohit Sharma (India captain): "Since we started the World Cup, it was all about one game at a moment. It is a big tournament, 11 games in total It was important to break it down into single ones and focus on each one of them. We were playing in different venues and wanted to play accordingly and that's what we did in every game. Very happy at how we have played in these nine games. Everyone took responsibility. We adapted really well in all the venues. We started the World Cup four games in a row chasing, and then we had to defend and the pacers did a very good job along with the spinners. The results will keep the dressing room lively. We are playing in India, there will be a lot of expectations. We have to enjoy each other's company."<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n
\nScott Edwards (Netherlands Captain): "It's a tricky situation where we want to be. We're confident with our style. The tournament was always going to be tough. India is a top side.
