Not impossible just very very unlikely.

Can't see New Zealand beating Australia on Sunday.
Don't let these two settle. Where's Ian Bishop when you need him?
So Mr. Dada Ganguly, are you chasing this down in 40 overs?
Problem is theres nobody else after these. If they had the wickets remaining (and batsmen to come) playing like this, then there would be a slight chance. However its all pressure on these two whilst the run rate keeps creeping up. Shame tbh but ah well, getting to the Semi final like they did is still a good achievement.
Surely PP time and just hit and hope?
Dhoni special on the way?
Which is why it's critical to make the most of the first 10 overs. So if/when you do lose wickets, you can rebuild without the pressure of the run rate going up. McCullum and NZ showed that on Tuesday.
No not yet for hit and hope.. 1 wicket gone now and there is no hope,, Might as well play slowly for 5 more overs and then hit and hope..
To India most likely.
Batting first yes its possible. Batting second under pressure with the RRR creeping up after every dot ball, its highly improbable.
Rahane's not really suited to limited overs is he?
Did he say that?
Yeah, its a tough one. If you lose a wicket whilst trying it, then you will immediately try and not lose any more wickets which will see a hit in the run rate right away.
I think india did the right thing in their Powerplay, but the Dhawan wicket caused a mini implosion.
Not today but he said it in an earlier game (think it was against Zim). Guy is a bit too cocky.
Thats true. It will be tough. Not impossible though like few years ago.
Man cant even get cocky against Zimbabwe now.
Rahane is playing a stinker so far... he better convert this into a 100
Think Dhoni is trying to set the run chase as a T20 match . 180 odd to get in 18 overs doable in a T20 not in a ODI though
Need a boundary every over and need at least 60-70 runs without losing any wickets in the PP to have any remote chance of still winning this game.
Dhoni should probably call the power play right now.
No room for complacency at a World Cup.
Come on Dhoni. Atleast turn this into a competitive affair.
Dhoni surely has to go for it now. thought the PP should've been taken 2-3 overs earlier.
Rahane out i think.
Good review there.
What a review
Shocking innings by Rahane.
Cracking review!
Terrific review!
Abysmal stuff from Rahane.
Wheres Suresh Raina?
Back in dressing room.
Probably online booking flight tickets after taking a shower.has he got out yet?
Yeah fantastic use of the review.
Almost 12 an over required. Should just go for it, doesnt matter if you get out before 200. Should be all or nothing now.

No point falling short making 260. All out 220 and at least give it a crack. No second chances now. Better to fall shot giving it a crack.
Why the feck is there so much Bollywood music at the SCG?
Yeah. Came at 3 down.
What are we waiting for? Should be aiming for at least one boundary an over now.
