    Better an IPL team than Ashley. The captaincy issue is a pain, but on the plus side the Superchargers have Freddie Flintoff in charge :D

    Losing Massood as a player is more hard to bear but I suppose we’d have lost him in early summer to their white ball squad anyway

    Let’s hope so but India are clear favourites.

    No I hope Australia win. India losing only one match but it being the most important match 11 would be funny. Especially as the home nation got their way with a uses pitch against New Zealand.

    Don't think the pitch was much of a factor really @dreamboy3000 .

    The final is live on Channel 5, which is good news to boost viewing figures.

    So far shaping up well for a final. Sharia gone for 47 after whacking the sixes. 8 an over for the powerplay, but 2 wickets down!

    Great catch by Head. Two quick wickets have slowed down a fast start.

    Should make for a close final hopefully kohli or another needs 70+ to have a chance of a win!

    It’s brewing up nicely.
    So far, Kohli,s wicket is essential to Aus getting the upper hand

    Boundaries haven't been flowing. It's been a while since the India fans have been so quiet. Rahul is a huge key wicket now. Shami will be licking his lips bowling on this surface after seven wickets the other day.

    Aussies proving yet again, absolute master grinders. That said, the ball is starting to do all sorts, and they haven’t batted yet.

    Lovely to see the Yorkshire links doing well of Starc, Maxwell and Leeds born Inglis.
