Very poor lengths by Kuldeep in his final over in the context of this matchup, easy for any batter to dispatch such overpitched and drag-down deliveries regardless of past history #T20WorldCup #INDvSA
Replying to @ExtraCoverT20
If Miller has to bat early in the innings, IND should frontload Kuldeep against him, as he badly struggles against LWS, with a poor H2H against Kuldeep too: vs LWS: 5.5 | 67.35 vs Kuldeep: 22 | 118.92

Hardik will be crucial for IND at the death due to his H2H against Nortje and Rabada #T20WorldCup #INDvSA
Replying to @ExtraCoverT20
Although he has a bad overall record vs fast bowling, his H2H numbers vs Nortje & Rabada are good vs fast - 28.25/126.97 vs Nortje - 35/142.86 vs Rabada - 36.5/143.14 He only struggles against SLA, so holding him back until Maharaj bowls out should be the best way to use him

It's also pertinent to keep in mind how good Miller and SA's other death batters are against pace in this phase: Klaasen: 26.45 | 211.6 Miller: 24.72 | 171.15 Stubbs: 44.6 | 204.59 Jansen: 22.2 | 159.42 Bumrah will once again be key in keeping them quiet #T20WorldCup #INDvSA

He’s also decent against medium pace, but has an unusually bad H2H against Hardik: 10.75 | 126.47 compared to 27 | 129.81 It is likely that the H2H is an aberration

We summarize what's been up with Arshdeep Singh since IPL2023 going into the #INDvSA finsl in this thread #T20WorldCup
On spicy New York pitches, Arshdeep Singh spiced things up for both Ireland and Pakistan. Before India’s match against USA this #T20WorldCup, the average pacer’s economy rate at this venue was 5.16, but Arshdeep’s was 8.25. So what’s up with him?

Arshdeep has taken 15 wickets this #T20WorldCup, but not without being consistently expensive against higher quality opposition. Check out what's been up with him the past 18 months going into the #INDvSA final

Ahead of the #INDvSA final,we summarize what makes Klaasen the best T20 batter currently in this thread #T20WorldCup
We all know that Heinrich Klaasen is the best T20 batter right now, but how exactly? For starters, his strike rate of 178.9 is the second-best for any batter in T20s since last year.

Ahead of the #INDvSA final, read extensively on how Klaasen is the biggest threat to IND's first T20 WC trophy since 2007 and how they can slay the beast #T20WorldCup
