No countdown No jinxing just facts
With the current form we are in, If we bat badly we'll score 250-260 against Ind.
If we do some basics right that will get us to 280
Just 30 to 40 runs is the difference which we can easily achieve if we bat well.
We can do it. We need to believe we can do it

It will certainly not be easy. No one has chased 300 successfully in this tournament against a decent attack. India's attack is one of the best, if not the best.
Boys should have self belief due to scoring 330+ twice and chasing 320 in 40 odd overs against WI (toothless attack, to be fair).
315 is not a crazy total...but we need to pace the innings appropriately. Good thing for us, India have just 10 overs of spin they can bowl.

If we could score 330 vs starc and Cummings we have the capability to score 315 vs Ind

The concern is that Riyad scored 69 (50) in that match and Shabbir a golden duck...

Absolutely.
And I'm of course hopeful we will win. But this is one of the favorites to win the tournament on a worn pitch batting 2nd.
Lots of should haves. Should have taken that Rohit catch. Of course by dropping Rohit, you had Kohli play a very un-Kohli shot to fall for 26. You get Rohit for 9, Kohli will slam you for a 150.
We probably did an OK job to keep India to 314-9. The start they had, 375 was on the cards.

You're being too nice Al Furqaan. We have a brainless attack.

It's all about the pitch. Also, keep in mind that Australia had a much higher score to defend, and probably were more relaxed towards the end.
