There should be balance in both innings.

Win the toss Win the match - 2021 T20 Wc in a nutshell

[@scientistfantastic]

I want to tell u that toss only decides 50% of the match result u can still win the night game after losing the toss/bat first just like Pak defeated Afg, Eng defeated SL, Ind defeated Afg, SL defeated WI, SA defeated Eng. I have counted only the night matches and excluded Nam and Sco matches. Also the two Semi Finals were never one sided before the final over Eng and Pak (both lost the toss) were favourite to win the match and something magical happened in last 1 over, even few Super 12 matches like Afg vs Pak, SA vs SL were never one sided. Agreed that second bat team have advantage to win the game but all the players are representing their country on international level and are atleast expected to tackle swing and spin. Our top order batsman failed except Kohli vs Pak. Also there are many stadiums even in India where dew plays a role and tbh in all t20Is which are played at night dew plays a role but that never means second bat team will only win.

You are right but only half way. VK is a world class batsman. So second thought about that, no one in current era can match his abilities, he is a different batsman with class batting style. But the problem is with his attitude, rather temperament and captaincy skills. Talent in batting or bowling doesn't make you a great captain. It's not that he is not fit for it, but just that it's not his cup of tea. He is carrying that burden and stressing himselfa way too much. I would love to see VK doing only a batsman duty and showing aggression as a batsman and not as a captain.

[@mohamedsuhailirfankhazi6628]

The evening matches started at 6:00 PM UAE time throughout the WC. This perhaps was an issue. For teams bowling first at 6:00 pm, there wasn’t much dew around and so the bowlers could bowl well. In the second innings however the outfield was super wet and spinners could hardly grip the ball. Case in point was India vs Pakistan. Pakistan cruised to their easiest win vs India cuz the conditions got so bad for the bowlers and Shami and Varun C got punished by Babar and Rizwan with such ease. So keeping this all in mind, in hindsight starting the matches an hour later would have been a better decision. That way both sides would have to deal with the dew and it wouldnt have given such an unfair advantage to the chasing team.

Guys, don't steep down to another level by just blaming the toss toss toss. It's sad that India did not perform well. But remember only losers search for reasons and winners always have solutions. It was neither fatigue nor work load. Because most of the best international players were Also part of IPL, but still they performed exceptionally well in WC for their respective countries. Remember KW, even said that playing IPL in UAE helped them plan the game better and they read the match conditions very well. If it was really fatigue, why not Indian players pull out of IPL? No one forced them to play it other than huge money nothing made them play IPL. It was wrong squad and poor motivation and bloody politics that ruined this WC for India, that's it. We will comeback strong, we will win.

While the 2021 World Cup felt very underwhelming, the 2007 WC played in West Indies is still the worst ever

[@akrobetoray5694]

Why?

[@SubhashNarayanan_SN]

Yes... Mostly because there were 14 teams & in group stages no mjaor teams played each other. Also with the exit of india & pakistan early, the super 8 matches were also same like group stages. Another reason was the entire tournment took almost 2 months to complete & personally i didn't liked the scoreboard banners shown in the broadcast. The fonts were large with dull colours.

[@animalactivist836]

It was all Indian Star Sport's fault. The matches were being played according to Indian Standard Times. If the matches were being played at 7pm or 7:30 (UAE time), the conditions would have been same for both the sides. Pakistan had played many games in UAE in the past where the starting time was 8pm (UAE time) where the conditions used to be similar for both of the teams.

[@darshanselvam554]

I was an ardent cricket fan but lost interest in this game for last 4 years , I'm closely monitoring the game for last 5 years and noticed several factors decides the match winners 1. Pitch and Dew factors - Not only in UAE we seen some venues like Mumbai - Mostly favored the team batting second in evening matches, if the venue is Chennai you can see pitch slowing down in second innings and it favors the team batting first , 2. Bowling conditions - when it comes to test cricket in Indian venues spinners played a huge role in most victories for India were foreign spinners not expertise in these conditions and they struggled to take wickets. 3. Physical Advantage - Remember India's Adelaide Test match were India collapsed to 36/9 , In that match both pat cummins and Josh Hazelwood are relatively tall compared to Indian bowlers and they are abel to release the ball very much higher then Indian bowlers this made our batsman struggle.

[@niweshlekhak9646]

In second match there was a lot of pressure I mean a lot lot of pressure of getting knocked out in group stage itself plus terrible loss they received in previous match and add to that the stress and pressure of loosing a toss in such an important match that's the reason they looked timid in nature they are humans it can happen to any human being everyone is literally judging team india by just two bad games I agree they didn't play well but they definitely would bounce back in T20 World Cup 2022 , like they bounced back after terrible loss at at Adelaide bowled out to 36 to winning the series.

I am a huge fan of yours. Just watched the first 30 seconds, haven't watched the entire video yet but will complete it 11 minutes after posting this comment. I want to tell u that toss only decides 50% of the match result u can still win the night game after losing the toss/bat first just like Pak defeated Afg, Eng defeated SL, Ind defeated Afg, SL defeated WI, SA defeated Eng. I have counted only the night matches and excluded Nam and Sco matches. Also the two Semi Finals were never one sided before the final over Eng and Pak (both lost the toss) were favourite to win the match and something magical happened in last 1 over, even few Super 12 matches like Afg vs Pak, SA vs SL were never one sided. Agreed that second bat team have advantage to win the game but all the players are representing their country on international level and are atleast expected to tackle swing and spin. Our top order batsman failed except Kohli vs Pak. Also there are many stadiums even in India where dew plays a role and tbh in all t20Is which are played at night dew plays a role but that never means second bat team will only win.
