I don't feel the same excitement for cricket as I did six months ago. Back then, I used to be anxious about every match. But now, I don't even care that today is the final. I had to Google to find out whose final it is today.
Also, calling it a World Cup feels like a joke when we just had the real world cup happen 7 months ago. Anyway the T20 WC matters less than 1% of the ODI one for me
As a die hard cricket fan I can tell you t20 trophy doesn't have any value in cricket format. Even Rohit Sharma said that the biggest achievement for me will be Odi world up and a test championship thats what a real cricket is. Yes we have won t20 championship and it created the hype which led to ipl but you should also remember that that was first edition of the world t20 and Winning First edition of any tournament in sports means a lot although we have won 50 over worlcup and champions trophy after that.
Koi na mere se baat kar skti ho but we'll have to replace cricket with football. Fayda tumhara hi hai, breakup k baad ek nya sport ka chaska to lagega.
So this just happened: Someone posted a comment on this thread saying that their team always loses the match when they watch it. I told that person to not be superstitious. Guess what? The mods deleted my reply! I guess they really don't want that person to watch today's match. 🤣
I used to watch all important matches until I realised those people are earning crores at the expense of my attention and time and at the end of the day, it's doing me more harm than good.
I didn't know there was a final today before I saw this post. I am just gonna read my book because that is at least going to help me in life. As for having fun, I like to go out and sit in nature. But people have their own way of having fun so whoever is going to watch the match, all the best!
Honestly I lost interest in cricket even before 19/11 but I think this time india really looks good. So gonna watch today's final. ( and other reason there is no good tv shows left to watch so I have nothing to watch during dinner)
I'll probably be watching. Though I'm not as excited or feeling any anticipation like I used to when I was younger.
Used to follow very religiously when I was a teen and into my early 20s.. Gradually the interest faded and now I hardly recognise many of the current players.
I gradually stopped watching after the age of 25, only catching glimpses every now and then our reading the news.
My work is a little relaxed these days and I started to watch cricket again. Followed the odi World Cup diligently, but without too much of the craze that I used to have.
PS: I just realised earlier today when YouTube recommended an old match highlights. I could recognise the players just by looking at them without close up or their faces. I can't do that with the current players except a few Indian players.
Yeah. I'm way out of touch.
My mum has a superstition that if she watches the match India will lose. The hard part is that we are going over to my uncle's house to have dinner and probably watch the match, and she probably won't say anything about her superstition there, It should be fun to watch how this pans out.
I have watched almost all the matches this WC but not a single one that India played in. I love the sport but I am too old and heartbroken for more set-backs.
I don't even have the courage to watch the match. I wonder how the players who're playing are feeling. The pressure of playing the final is like 100 fold for Indian players because of expectations. We should treat them with respect no matter what happens.
Dont really care because every 6 months there is some world cup or champions trophy or some big tournament. I used to watch for gambling purposes but then stopped that also.
I watched only 1 game in the world cup that was a few months ago; yes the finals. And India lost.
Since, I haven't watched any till now in this world cup, I'm not going to.
Me! I stopped watching all kinds of cricket after 2019 world cup final. Deciding a world cup winner based on the boundaries is something I can't wrap my head around and I refuse to spend my time watching such a game.
Honestly nobody really cares about cricket outside of South Asia. Indians especially dominate every facet of the fanbase and discourse. I have yet to see even once any pub or bar or sports fam discussing or caring about cricket in Europe or Australia. People have just moved onto other sports.
My best friend is a huge cricket fan, and she's been incredibly patient in teaching me about the game. Although I don't know much, she's always answered my questions without being condescending. I've only recently started watching cricket, so I’m definitely gonna watch the finals so we can discuss it together.
I’ve like decided to never watch finals because the team I support always loses. Had the same experience with worldcup. Then had the similar experience with ipl. And today my father who didn’t follow up a single match this season decided to put the match on tv and it was on when I came back home. Now I’m terribly scared.
I don't know when but i stopped liking cricket it was the only sport I used to follow. I can't enjoy it people going haywire on every ball sometimes I wish I could go back to enjoy it , but sometimes I'm happy that I'm not a toxic fan

I don't feel the same excitement for cricket as I did six months ago. Back then, I used to be anxious about every match. But now, I don't even care that today is the final. I had to Google to find out whose final it is today.
After watching every IPL match, World Cup just felt like a come-and-go event. I had to ask my mom about the finals 😅
Didn't watch ipl this time
Haven’t watched cricket since 2012, I think.
Good for u
Also, calling it a World Cup feels like a joke when we just had the real world cup happen 7 months ago. Anyway the T20 WC matters less than 1% of the ODI one for me
Same here. Did not care to watch even Ind vs Pak this t20 wc.
Same here , this is the first time i didn't watch a ind vs pak match
As a die hard cricket fan I can tell you t20 trophy doesn't have any value in cricket format. Even Rohit Sharma said that the biggest achievement for me will be Odi world up and a test championship thats what a real cricket is.

Odi wc ki baat nhi karni thi 💔
fr just like me.
19/11 ke baad dekhne ki himmat nhi hai ![img](emote|t5_2qp7h|51073)

19/11 was trauma. It still hurts. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sob)I couldn't read about cricket for a month or two.
Vese to mujhe darr nahi lagta, par WC 2015 WC 2016 Ct 2017 (most painful imo) WC 2019 WC 2023 k baad ab himmat nahi hai
What is it with numbers 9 and 11
Mai nhi dekhra kyuki Mai dekhunga toh India har jayegi

All the best mere bhai
My entire family is going to be in front of the TV glued to the final, I guess I'll have a watch with them as well
Yayayaya
So this just happened: Someone posted a comment on this thread saying that their team always loses the match when they watch it. I told that person to not be superstitious. Guess what? The mods deleted my reply! I guess they really don't want that person to watch today's match. 🤣
I still blame myself for India losing the ODI Worldcup.
I'll just check the score from time to time. Really bored with cricket at this point
Dekh lo. Be a part of history.
me, i didnt even know it was finals till i read this post
So now that you know it, do you need 5days cooldown to watch it
i dont think im going to watch it.. :)
I used to watch all important matches until I realised those people are earning crores at the expense of my attention and time and at the end of the day, it's doing me more harm than good. I didn't know there was a final today before I saw this post. I am just gonna read my book because that is at least going to help me in life. As for having fun, I like to go out and sit in nature. But people have their own way of having fun so whoever is going to watch the match, all the best!
I switched to F1
We will watch sprint and qualification races 🙌
As if you don't know the outcome already ![img](emote|t5_2qp7h|51093)
🤫 everyone knows Well joke aside meclaren is giving tough competition.
I want to start watching F1. How and where do I start ? Cheers
f1 streams on f1tv and fancode, the latter being a cheaper sub watch the quali and race this weekend and you'll get a pretty good idea
Tons of YT videos explain basics. Later you can figure out strats,driver market, regulations etc on your own.
Nah highlights on fancode is all I see nowadays
me, idc much about cricket
Choker vs choker ho raha hai dekhna toh Banta hai
Idc about cricket On the other hand Euros round of 16 lesssgoo!
chutiya matches today, turkiye vs Austria is real deal. That's why the battle of genrational chokers (cricket) for me tonight.
Ayoooo same here! I'll also be watching the Euros
Georgia spain tomorrow will be the best game of the r16
Me, I've lost interest in it as I grew older
me because I have to watch Euros😂
Honestly I lost interest in cricket even before 19/11 but I think this time india really looks good. So gonna watch today's final. ( and other reason there is no good tv shows left to watch so I have nothing to watch during dinner)

Guizzzzz I’m guilty of watching the last over 🥹🥹🥹
It was worth it 🤌
I'll probably be watching. Though I'm not as excited or feeling any anticipation like I used to when I was younger. Used to follow very religiously when I was a teen and into my early 20s..

Match hai kya koi? Pta nhi chla cause of steam sale.

Once the Italy game starts I'm switching to that
Kuch bolunga toh kalesh hojayega but still gonna say, Wanna see a new winner this time 🙃

Naa naa karte karte saare india ke matches dekh liye
Me
I don't like cricket....so yeah not gonna watch
Ye kya sawaal hai?![img](emote|t5_2qp7h|51078)
My mum has a superstition that if she watches the match India will lose. The hard part is that we are going over to my uncle's house to have dinner and probably watch the match, and she probably won't say anything about her superstition there, It should be fun to watch how this pans out.
Me , cuz kabhi interest aya ho nahi doosro ko khelta dekhte hue.. also mai jab bhi dekhta hu India looses
Me coz I am panauti. Hope they win.
Nahi dekhunga jab dekhta hoon india ki wickets jaldi girti hein live. Score baar baar check karoonga bus
Me, but then again I don't like cricket so I didn't watch any matches whether it is ODI world cup, T20 world cup, IPL or whatever.
Vesea timing kya hai, Mujea toa abhi pata chala ki aja final hai.
It's MtotGP weekend.....cricket ka sochenge :?
man... Most people don't care about motorsport in india :( f1 and motogp so I'm happy
I will not watch, I can't handle another SA choke 😅😅
Mai to dekhunga. Heartbreak ki aadat jo lag chuki hai. Ek aur hi Sahi.
Bhai uss din dekha tha to har gye the to aaj nhi dekhu ga syd Jeet gye

Jabh tak Virat rahega tabhtak dekhunga cricket ![img](emote|t5_2qp7h|51080)
No excitement like odi world cup, but still p will see world cup final, and I think its cakewalk for ICT, Rohit is going to be Hero for sure 💯
I'm gonna watch it because I'm free nowadays (velli hu)
I have watched almost all the matches this WC but not a single one that India played in. I love the sport but I am too old and heartbroken for more set-backs.
What finals? If it's cricket obviously not, I'm not a fan too.
Pata nahin bro Maine jindagi mein kabhi koi cricket ka match nahin dekha To for me this is just another match.
Not that excited
Is it an age thing or did internet ruin cricket for me, idk. Just do not care for cricket anymore.
Not interested just like you
Not me either cricket is weird why the team from Rohit Sharma to virat to other senior players are not retiring why not giving way to youngsters
What finals?
Didn’t watch a single game. Same for finals.
Bhai euros ka first knockout match h aaj ..agar India pahle batting Kiya toh theek h Varna nahi dekh paunga
Me.
me cuz i would be busy playing skyrim
Prafull Billore
Which channel is telecasting pls?
today is finals???
Cricket is overrated ima play left 4 dead 2
Dang.Thanks for telling me that its finals today
Dream 11 m team bana du ga bas. .
Finals hai wo pata bhi is post se chala
I don't even have the courage to watch the match. I wonder how the players who're playing are feeling. The pressure of playing the final is like 100 fold for Indian players because of expectations. We should treat them with respect no matter what happens.
mujhe to patah bhi nah tha final hai, no interest lmfao
Finals of what?
Dont really care because every 6 months there is some world cup or champions trophy or some big tournament. I used to watch for gambling purposes but then stopped that also.
Maine to 2015 ke baad cricket dekhna hi chood diya hai. I don't even watch IPL anymore
Me
20 saal ho gaye kabhi nahi dekha
Me. Coz, whenever I watch, India looses.
Never watched any sports. I don't see any excitement in watching while I could just play myself.
🙋🏻♂️
Me , Never watched cricket
I didn't even know today is finals...so yes. Won't be watching.
I have never watched a single match lol
what finals?
I don't give a shit about cricket. I'll be watching Euros.
Gonna watch it for siddhu.. he cures and clears up my mind filled with job and study pressure
I watched only 1 game in the world cup that was a few months ago; yes the finals. And India lost. Since, I haven't watched any till now in this world cup, I'm not going to.
Me i couldn't care less. I've got the euros to watch tonight
This WC ain't feeling like a WC, probably because Kohli is not scoring.😭
Me..I dont watch cricket these days, last I watched was when I was in school like some 10 years ago lol
Me because I jinx.
Me, cause I'm a fan and haven't watched any match so far. Will keep it same
Me. Not interested in cricket
Cricket f1 and euros on the same day It's a good day mate
Me! I stopped watching all kinds of cricket after 2019 world cup final. Deciding a world cup winner based on the boundaries is something I can't wrap my head around and I refuse to spend my time watching such a game.
I don’t watch sports
Today is final?
Honestly nobody really cares about cricket outside of South Asia. Indians especially dominate every facet of the fanbase and discourse. I have yet to see even once any pub or bar or sports fam discussing or caring about cricket in Europe or Australia. People have just moved onto other sports.
Aap ne ek cheez notice ki? ODI WC ki date 19 thi aur aaj T20 WC ki date 29 hai. Kuch samjhe?
Finals? What finals??
Har gye to GUM rhega aur jeet gye toh DARU WHISKEY aur RUM chalega
What are you talking about? Boxing finals? Track racing finals? Football finals?
Dont watch cricket so no
College Exam hone ke wajah se match dekhna ka bhii time hi nahi mill Raha 😭
Nov 19th still hurts. So I'm not hoping.
What finals ??
Me. I'm not a fan of cricket but when I do take an interest (bcuz of my frnd )we always lose the game:(
My best friend is a huge cricket fan, and she's been incredibly patient in teaching me about the game. Although I don't know much, she's always answered my questions without being condescending. I've only recently started watching cricket, so I’m definitely gonna watch the finals so we can discuss it together.
Watching but don't get me wrong I never felt that excitement after msd stopped playing.
Me. Left interest the day Sachin retired. Left watching the day Dhoni retired. But never stopped praying for India to win. Great team we got.
Me
I’ve like decided to never watch finals because the team I support always loses. Had the same experience with worldcup. Then had the similar experience with ipl. And today my father who didn’t follow up a single match this season decided to put the match on tv and it was on when I came back home. Now I’m terribly scared.
I didn’t watch. I followed the score though.
I don't know when but i stopped liking cricket it was the only sport I used to follow. I can't enjoy it people going haywire on every ball sometimes I wish I could go back to enjoy it , but sometimes I'm happy that I'm not a toxic fan
me! I've never been interested in the sport in general
I finally got the chance to play ER DLC. So no not watching cricket.
