@IdliHaterr Yes!! Sanju was not given enough credit for the running out of Bethel of a wide throw from Hardik!

Sanju Samson collected the wide throw to the stumps, swiftly dislodged the bails to run out the dangerous Bethell. x.com/Okaykolu/statu…

@sarkarstix How stupid does he sound?! Maybe he's fixed matches when he played.🤦♀️

🚨 Michael Vaughan calls South Africa the STUPIDEST team of the tournament
"South Africa has to be the stupidest team of the tournament. If they had allowed WI to win against them, India would have been knocked out. The juggernaut that went on to defeat Zimbabwe, WI, England in semis, and NZ in finals would have been stopped in Super 8 itself."
What do you think about Vaughan's views?

@Kushacritic No!😧So badly wanted the ODI trophy in 2023 under Rohit's captaincy.

@MitchellGlenn In his defence, the match had become pretty much one-sided towards the end- so though everyone was thrilled, the excitement at the end was missing.

This will haunt Ravi Shastri
Moments like this are so often replayed over the years
A significant moment in IND cricket history - winning the T20 World Cup at home
And, unfortunately, an incredible brain fade in commentary

Dear @ICC,
We wish to take this opportunity to thank you for the recent T20 World Cup, a global cricketing spectacle on a scale unlike any other in past years. It was so good that several nations decided not to leave upon their tournament exit, and it appears they might never do so.
As for us, the tournament brought drama and infamy. We staked our claim to replace the forfeiting Pakistan, then realised the harsh economic and logistical realities of international sport. Colombo is not Reykjavík, in so many ways. Then we had the unforfeiture of Pakistan, an event that actually vindicated our 'stay-at-home, fire it out online' strategy. They knew their plan and played it like a fish.
Let's not forget the actual cricket. The associate nations nearly caused several shocks - both Nepal, Netherlands, and Italy all coming within a whisker of a win over the big boys. Then there was the classic match between Afghanistan and South Africa, which was so good they did the Super Over twice.
At the end of the day, it was India's tournament to host and they delivered, blasting more than 500 runs across the semis and final. They brought the fire. We watched and tried to learn, but lava bedded wickets are not quite the same. Conquering Iceland remains the ultimate litmus test of a batter.
We count the statistics and arrive at an aggregate count of 245 posts by us on X and 3,420 loaves of bread baked by our captain, Dushan Bandara, across the tournament as a whole. Our Chairman, a ship captain, steered all voyages safely into harbour.
And finally, the world famous Íslensk Premier League (ÍPL) is now only two months away, the T20 franchise tournament with a sub-Arctic twist. We wait patiently and keep our keyboards warm.
Yours sincerely,
Icelandic Cricket Association
