I am struggling to be even remotely interested in this game. The pain of our exit is still hurting too much :(

30 runs short of par.

India vs New Zealand in the final it is.

Not sure what par you're referring to, but they have to beat Australia's record score for a knockout game in WC if India are to win this. It will also be Australia's first ever semi defeat. Certainly achievable but some records to break there for India.

India have chased 300+ more times than any other team by far - 15 vs the nearest being 8. They've never done it in a WC though... another record to break.

Not so sure:

India 80/2 (249 runs required from 34 overs, RR: 5.00, RRR: 7.32)

Yes, it is early days, but this is a knock-out. Pressure will keep escalating!

I do not want to invoke the "C" word, but do you think India might be ch***** here?
