Robin Uthappa said- As far as I am concerned, I will be very happy if Tabrez Shamsi plays, especially in Barbados, and if Bartman is playing, then I feel like we have to be a little careful.
2) IND vs SA, Final: South Africa’s biggest challenge is to deal with Bumrah-Kuldeep, former veteran gave such a suggestion
Before the final match, Morne Morkel suggested to Team India that the team should not think too much against India and should stick to the plan to deal with players like Jaspreet Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav. Speaking on ESPNcricinfo, Morne Morkel said, I think you need to play in the moment. Yes, they know that Jaspreet can take wickets later. When he bowls two overs, he will prove to be important in the death overs.
3) Kohli’s form doesn’t matter, because… for the first time Sanjay Manjrekar’s words will seem absolutely correct
Former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has said that he is not worried about Virat Kohli’s current form. He said, “I am not worried about Virat Kohli’s form, because the form of the entire team is more important. Of course India will win the T20 World Cup 2024. India has played T20 cricket in a modern way and the result of that is that they are in the final.”
4) Why did Rahul Dravid get angry before the IND vs SA final match, said “… there is no need to win the World Cup”
A campaign is being run on social media for coach Dravid to win the World Cup. But Dravid is angry with this and has said that he does not need to win the World Cup. He said, “This is completely against the kind of person I am. This thing is completely against my principles. I do not believe in such things, that you win a trophy for someone. I remember someone saying that when asked, why do you want to climb Everest, the answer was. I want to climb Everest because it is there, then why do we have to win this World Cup, hey we have to win because it is happening. This is not to win for any person nor is it to be achieved for anyone.”

6) “Virat has a chance to become a hero like Dhoni”- Former legend sends a special message to Kohli before the final
Mohammad Kaif, while advising Kohli, reminded him of Dhoni’s innings in the 2011 final. He said, “Kohli needs to remember that MS Dhoni’s World Cup in 2011 was also not good, but he regained form in the final match. A small suggestion is that Kohli should not do slogging. He is not a player of the slogging league. He can play the ball on merit and dominate against any attack.”
