Ground was half empty at the end as well.
Can't  blame them 9pm is normally rush hour in Ahmedabad so they needed to beat the traffic.

Funny how, since it became obvious they were going to lose, we've hardly seen any shots of Modi himself whatsoever? Weird this.
Haha, yes indeed. However any lack of opportiniuy for that awful racist narcissist bigot to shine is welcomed.

It’s nice that home team hasn’t won it for once.

Brilliant from Travis Head, joins Lloyd, Richards, Aravinda de Silva, Ponting and Gilchrist in making a match winning century in a ODI final.

Sam Curran is having a rough old time at the mo.

That’s another really poor game to lose.

It is but you have to give credit to WI, that's an incredible performance in the last 10-11 overs.

Absolutely, and frankly anything that can reinvigorate West Indies cricket will do for me. Shai Hope is a ridiculous, and largely unfulfilled, talent. I always hope something, no matter how small, can be the launchpad for them again.

Fair to say it wasn't great today. When are they going to learn that 50 overs is a long time and someone needs to get a hundred at around a run a ball for the rest to play around. Too many pretty innings and no biggie. And Curran bowled like a drain.

I often think that, then I remember Marlon Samuels and decide 'nah, fuck 'em'.

Haha like it. Remember him running out Lara on his bow out game against us in the 2007 World Cup at Kensington Oval ? I was there and the (local) crowd were adamant he'd done him like a kipper. Google it. Certainly looks bad haha.
