Also I'm loving the chat about how we're underdogs and how our quicks will struggle under different conditions. Seriously, I've been shit-scared going into every match as the favourites. It's great to finally be back where we perform best - as the nuggety underdogs.

I like the Aussie team but I would prefer NZ to win. Hoping for a crazy game at the G. Will serve them right for not letting NZ practice at the G last year. because "lol India is coming, sorry Kiwis" Aussie still favourites though, Someone is going to have to play match winner alaa Prince Kane and Boult. The Aussies dont make the same mistakes twice though and their mettle is legendary. I wonder what all the indians are going to with their finals tickets. The Semi was the most partisan crowd ever. Except it was all Indian | ||

(with all due respect to Kiera Knightly, a gorgeous lady) Its been a good trip so far. Was weird in Sydney. 70 percent Indian fans. And the Aussies obnoxious drunks that they are had a bit of an unfair go at them around town after the game. Especially since they were just harmlessly walking home. Granted they were probably sick of how Sydney looked more like Mumbaifor 2 days, which was annoying for me aswell. But still Not their fault Indians care more about the game than they do, have more money than they do and are pretty much everywhere. it didnt really care who won. But I will be going all black for the final. | ||

Its sad that the toss is such a big factor at the G but you can thank AFL and drop in pitches that are as flat and bare as a Kiera Knightly's tits + Show Spoiler + (with all due respect to Kiera Knightly, a gorgeous lady) Its been a good trip so far.

We're pretty poor winners and losers over here ![]() I think it's going to be everyone supporting NZ apart from the Aussies ofc. Can't wait for tomorrow :D | ||

Speaking of that...what I would love to see is that if Australia wins, they drape Phil Hughes' #64 jersey over the Cup or something to honor him. | ||

Won like 250 off a table playing people who shouldve been asked to stop drinking way earlier. And Im a casual poker player at best. AIght time to get ready and Im off to the G. | ||
