In this episode of Cricket Chinwag, Anand Vasu and Jaideep Varma look back at India’s commanding win over New Zealand in the World Cup final.
They discuss New Zealand’s toss decision, the team selection call to leave out off-spin, and why putting India in to bat may have handed the advantage straight to the eventual champions.
The conversation then turns to India’s batting, with special focus on Sanju Samson’s third straight 80-plus score in a knockout game, Shivam Dube’s underrated value, and how India’s aggressive batting approach powered them through the business end of the tournament.
They also reflect on Jasprit Bumrah’s place in Indian cricket history, the delayed presentation ceremony, and the atmosphere in Ahmedabad for the final.
A wide-ranging final episode on India’s triumph, Samson’s legacy, Bumrah’s greatness, and the evolution of this Indian T20 side.
