Dropped catch, missed run outs and above all decision to pick Philander in place of Abbott. Final's gonna be a snoozefest with Aussies winning it comfortably.

No chance. WCDhoni (this is a reference to EuroMax) and India are too strong for the Aussies. They won't give it back.

Good jinx, man..

So happy for New Zealand. Also sad for South Africa, but I prefer the Kiwies slightly although AB De over everyone.

Now I really really hope NZ can beat Australia/India. Perhaps India should win the semi so that NZ has a much better chance of winning the final.

McCullum is a remarkable captain. Brilliant tactics throughout. (Drawing Steyn and Morkel out by taking a powerplay early was remarkable today).

And Boult is probably a leading contender to the player of the tournament. But there is no way he could have been so effective without the masterful manner in which McCullum had used him.

Brendon McCullum, MVP.

When did he take the second powerplay ?.... i remember checking the bowling figures and Steyn had been slaughtered ... this explains it then.

Graeme Smith is one handsome mofo

The Star Sports commentary lineup is my favorite part of the tournament

Greame smith looks good but his accent is annoying. Fucking s.african and n.zeqlan accents are the worst.

Heavy 'Strayan accents are the worst. Talking about Shane Warne here.

And now they got Brian freaking Lara on! Star Sports you beauty. Almost makes me want to forgive them for dedicating four channels to only cricket highlights for the past month.

Steven Smith - class act (and my fantasy team captain). India did well to come back to it - saved around 40 runs with the quick wickets.

Whoever wins.. I hope Trent Boult destroys them on Sunday.

The Indian cricket team is a disgrace, bunch of talentless cunts with tons of attitude.
