Twitter Chat: Ayaz Memon Fields Your Cricket Questions On The Australia Vs India Semi-Final
Twitter

With Thursday’s semi-final clash between Australia and India on everyone’s mind, we turned to our HuffPost India’s cricket expert Ayaz Memon to share his insights and match predictions on Twitter.

@Cricketwallah received a torrent of questions from HuffPost India’s following on Twitter in today’s chat, where he discussed India’s X factor against Australia, the key contests between players, why Indian fans should be optimistic, and picks his most dangerous player from the Australian team.

.@Indleonine Million dollar question which should concern administrators #HuffPostCWC

.@imNmujawar Why on earth not unless he retires by then or is injured or something?#HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@Sweetesh7 Beating Aus obviously not easy. Pressure will be very high on @HuffPostIndia

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@athulpkr To be absolutely honest, McCullum has been the most dynamic of the lot #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@Himan_Jadduboy There is a rain day for the final, after which trophy will be shared if no play possible #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@imAbhay03 Nope. In a WC semi-final the focus will be on the present, not the past #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@HaqZeeshanAli Cool captaincy! #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@V_rtios And have also won seven matches in the WC on the trot! #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@SriramVSharma Rohit v Starc, Kohli v Johnson, Maxi v Ashwin, Warner v Shami, Smith v Yadav -- well all of them! #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@suyash_11 Jadeja is a main bowler, not a part-timer! #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@dsmaruthi I think spin gives India variety and depth in the bowling #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@sruthijith Warner and Kohli from either team could be the highest scorer, whether century or not, is my hunch #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@goeljayant Seven wins on the trot don't matter to you? #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@purple_heart_v Yes, as it has in almost all matches in this WC. But that can't be a millstone round the neck #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@EntangledT This is the semis, any player could be, sung or unsung. Look at what Elliott did y'day #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@Himan_Jadduboy Where's the doubt? #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@LWOS_Anirudh Coping with pressure #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@Gaurav_gwl In my opinion Starc #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@Being_Bansi Shouldn't allow Aus to make much more than 300; as many fewer than 300 the better! #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@its_Saiyesh They've bowled out all opposition as yet, so why not Aus too #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

@sunil8e Why should this matter now, with only two games remaining? #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

@mapras21 By all accounts a good batting pitch. I like your percentage take on the teams too!

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

@abhay_sahota In my opinion, significant. Therefore, some advantage to India. But Ashwin and Jadeja will have to bowl well!

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@RitikaKr@HuffPostIndia Batting has looked a little unstead #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@SubhashJha I can't see any changes in Indian team. Oz too, because Hazlewodd did extremely well in last match #HuffPostCWC

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 25, 2015

.@imNmujawar Different formats, different tournaments, different conditions #HuffPostCWC
