ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

Forecast says rain till 7 pm and than it will clear

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

What a anti climax end of what was such a good tournament.

They should have definately kept a reserve day. Rain was the ninth participant of this championship and clearly is a winner.

Win or lose, anything is acceptable if there is a decent competitive game. This could have been best game of the event considering the kind of form both teams are in.

Anyways, congrats to England and Indian supporters

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

There is no reserve day. If there is no play today, I believe both teams will be declared joint winners

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

True, they couldnt have a reserve day anyways, i think Eng is playing NZ in couple of days.

Talk about busy schedule, england was playing two days before the championship started and will play after two days it ends.

inn ko phele he t20 organize kr lena chahye tha :chai:

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

It's a T20 game (barring further rain)

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

I think the Indian team batting first under these conditions which mosly suit the English players...will have some difficulty in batting and scoring some 160+...

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

I liked this, rain is the only thing that can prevent a Team India win, even if we dont have a match today, India deserves this CL.

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

And the match started, India 6/0 after 2 overs, slow start

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

English bowlers doing great, mubarik ho ehsan uncle

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

130 is the target for England

India probably 15-20 runs short, needed 145-150 imo

Re: ICC Champions Trophy, Final: England v India at Birmingham, Jun 23, 2013

Target for England: 130...should be very much getable... :D

Bopara's 3 for 20 is the set back for India...
