2007 invented the ICC T20 Men's World Cup. The 1st season of the ICC T20 World Cup final occurred between the 2 greatest teams India vs Pakistan. The match will be held on 24 September 2007 at 2.00 PM. India won the toss and chose to bat first. India collected 157/5 from 20 overs. Only Gautam Gambhir (75 from 54 balls) played a notable innings. Umar Gul took the wickets of both Yuvraj Singh and Mahendra Singh Dhoni. The match was controlled by Pakistan but unfortunately, India beat Pakistan. Irfan Pathan (3/16), RP Singh (3/26) and Joginder Sharma (2/20). Pakistan needs 54 from 24 balls, Misbah-ul-Haq hit 3 sixes off Harbhajan Singh in 1 over. Pakistan needed just 6 runs to win from the last four balls. Misbah attempted to hit the next ball but he was caught at short fine-leg by Sreesanth, leaving Pakistan all out for 152 runs. Irfan Pathan was awarded the Man of the Match for his 3 wickets for 16 runs, and Man of the Series, Shahid Afridi.

India won by 5 runs. India created the history of 1 winner of the ICC T20 Men's World Cup Cricket Troffee.

Yes. ICC T20 World Cup Cricket 2024 is a big festival of Cricket World. There will be 20 teams each other to get the toffee. Obviously, there is a big contest against Pakistan vs India. Always a fan of both teams and enjoyed that match. I hope the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup Cricket 2024 will be much more enjoyable. :)

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/05/28/LkDxI.jpeg

On 1 June 2024, the ICC Men's T20 World Cup is the biggest cricket game. T20 cricket is most interesting to all classes of people like men and women. There will be 20 teams each other. 26 May already held the IPL final match. The next upcoming play is the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024. So I think it will be most interesting and enjoyable for loving people.


You can discuss here the upcoming cricket World Cup T20.

Group A: Canada, India, Ireland, Pakistan, United States of America. India and Pakistan are most strongest teams of all time. I prefer India is amazing in cricket history for their great event IPL.

Group B: Australia, England, Namibia, Oman, Scotland. The mentioned 5b teams Australia and England are the strong. I can say Australia can be the winner of this ICC Men's World Cup Champion. Best of luck to all of the participants. Everyone tries to give their best to win.

Group C: Afghanistan, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Uganda, West Indies. Here we can see the strongest teams are New Zealand and West Indies. Yes, here we can see the performance of Uganda. Best of luck Uganda, and Papua New Guinea.

Group D: Bangladesh, Nepal, Netherlands, South Africa, Sri Lanka. Here I prefer the 2 teams named South Africa, and Sri Lanka. South Africa has much ability to win the race. But most time they appeared as failed. It's their fate. Bangladesh hasn't stayed in good form continuously. Last week Bangladesh was defeated by the USA. The USA is a new team but Bangladesh lost 2 matches to the USA. It's a shame for Bangladesh.


Congratulations to all of the team for the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024.

In group D Sri Lanka and South Africa teams are strong, Bangladesh team was strong but currently not performing well. Yes, a few days ago they lost against a small team like USA, USA is behind Netherlands and Nepal in ICC ranking so Nepal and Netherlands are stronger teams than USA. Looking at Bangladesh's current performance, it seems that it will be very difficult for them to win against Netherlands and Nepal. I am a Bangladeshi so I will support Bangladesh team, hope Bangladesh can perform well. Anyway tomorrow is the 1st match between Canada vs USA. USA is stronger team than Canada, I think USA can win tomorrow.

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/06/02/Lqfvd.jpeg

Agreed! USA is stronger than Canada! The first match will be held at Grand Prairie Cricket Stadium, Dallas. Canada collected a smart score of 194/5 (20.0). To cheese the target USA already lost 2 important wickets from collecting 84 runs from 10 overs. To win the 1st ICC Men's World Cup race USA needs 112 runs in 58 balls—best of luck for the USA to reach the target.

PNG Vs WI

2 nd game ICC Men T20 world cup game is continuing between PNG team vs WI team. In this game, WI team is much much stronger then PNG team and their team also beated India most strong team in cricket. PNG team played their inning and set 136 runs target in 20 overs by losing 8 wickets. Bau brilliant played this batting lineup and scored 50 runs after he losing their wickets. Opener batsman did not perform well ura scored only 2 runs in 5 balls. Now Wi Team needs 53 runs in 38 balls and have 7 wickets behind for bat and the remaining runs is very low and Wi team easily win this game. B . king effort was good in opening from Wi side and he scored 34 runs. R.Chase and Powell both still batting in pitch and I hope that WI team win this easily.

Second match of ICC Men World Cup played between west indies and Papua new guinea. West Indies won the toss and first decided bowling. West indies bowler out the Papua new guinea batsman in the fivth ball of the 2 over. This is the first achievement for west indies bowler. This is the bad started for Papua new guinea batsman. Papua new guinea batsman makes  7 run in 2 over and 1 out. Once time again west indies bowler out the Papua new guinea batsman in the first ball of the 3 over. This is the second achievement for west indies bowler. Papua new guinea batsman makes 57 run in 10 over and 4 outs. Papua new guinea batsman are not working hard and struggle and can not make run. Papua new guinea batsman makes 136 run in 20 over and 8 outs. This is the easy target for west indies batsman. Now let's see west indies batsman can complete this target or not.

Yes this match of T20 Men World cup was much interested to watch and in this match, I saw many epic moments and good fights among both squads. Papua New Guinea squad surely displaying good performance in match better than my expectation. I know West indies squad has emerged victorious with 6 deliveries and 5 wickets but Papua New Guinea not professionally good squad and also not play any match with international cricket squad before i think.

Anyways, Fourth match among Sri Lanka sqaud against South Africa sqaud match is ongoing on crease and both squads already entered in crease for displaying their best inning skills and also toss already done among them. But Sri Lanka sqaud is not displaying best performance in batting inning because their sqaud lost 5 wickets already at low overs as well low scores. Recently, one more wicket was fell down and total 6 wickets were wiped out. After playing almost 12 overs, Sri Lanka squad just picked 53 scores which seem very low quality and very small for such a strong against Sqaud South Africa who displayed amazing performance in International World cup. I feel that in all overs, Sri Lanka squad will collect 110 scores as a defeating target and very simple to achieve for SA sqaud.

South Africa vs Sri Lanka

Today is the 4th match of T20 World Cup, the match is between South Africa vs Sri Lanka. South Africa and Sri Lanka were strong teams in Group D. I thought today's match would be very interesting and competitive. But today South Africa won easily chasing the target. Anyway today Sri Lanka won the toss and chose to bat, I think Sri Lanka should have won the toss and opted to bowl. No Sri Lankan batsman could perform well, all batsmen failed. No Sri Lankan batsman could score 20+ runs. Sri Lanka were all out for 77 runs. South African bowlers today are admirable. Anrich Nortje in particular performed exceptionally well, taking 4 wickets alone. In the end South Africa won by 6 wickets.

In this game, West Indies team won game by 5 wickets with 6 balls. West Indies is strong team and their team beat India which one most dangerous and powerful team. WI won by 137 runs. The best match was played by Andre Russel. First West Indies won the toss and West Indies selected to filed first. The  2nd match between west Indies and Papua new Guinea held at the country Providence stadium. Best of luck Indies for their upcoming matches. Papua new Guinea will play very well ahead and gave very tough time to WI team. I hope they will play better Papua new Guinea in the next match. West indies playing amazing with 137 runs looking at their performance. Papua new Guinea first made 136 runs and set this target to WI team. The bad performance in Papua new Guinea man team was showed by Tony ura batting performance scored 2 runs of  5 balls hitting 0 fours and 0 sixs. Congratulations to West Indies.

United States of America, Namibia, AfghanistanAfghanistan, West Indies, and South Africa got 2 points on the point table. Afghanistan's NRR score is the best of all of them. Uganda was a very new country for cricket ICC World Cup. However, the performance of Uganda was very poor. Today's upcoming match is England vs Scotland. Scotland is also a new entry country in cricket ICC World Cup 2024. The next match will be held between the Netherlands and Nepal. After finishing the match - 7 the 4 June ICC playing will be finished.

India vs Ireland
Today will be the eighth match of T20 World Cup, the match will be between India vs Ireland. India players have performed well in IPL, so they can perform well today as well. If we analyze the batting and bowling line, it can be seen that India's batting and bowling line is stronger than Ireland. I think today's match will not be competitive, India can beat Ireland easily. However, smaller teams perform well in the T20 format. Let's see how Ireland performs against India. But today I see 90% chance for India to win.

Group A: India vs Ireland

The 2nd match of Group A will be held in India vs Ireland at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, New York. It will be an important match for Group A. India will be the winning team for today's match. Tomorrow will be the most important match including the climax Pakistan vs USA. We have already seen the first USA match that was most impressive. I hope today's match and tomorrow's match will be the most interesting.

India team has shown good performance in every match.  India batsmen and bowlers have performed well.  And in today match too Ireland is not doing well.  Their performance in 6 overs looks very poor and it would seem that the Indian batsmen will get an easy target.  Ireland batsmen conceded 27 runs and lost 2 wickets in 6 overs.  There is no doubt that India will perform poorly in today match.Yes Indian team is much stronger than Ireland because their performance is very good.  Ireland can win the match but they need a lot of hard work and struggle.  But India will not let him win the match and will win the match.

Congratulations to India team for easy and simple win in today game which played with Ireland team. Ireland team team performed very great in past games with Pakistan team and made such a tough target and showing excellent effort in bowling line. But in today game with India, their team was failed to show same effort like past games. Ireland team only play 16 overs and scored 96 runs. Opener batsman was total failed to make good runs both P.Stirling and A. Balbirnie batsmen made 7 runs, P.Stirling (2) and A. Balbirnie (5) thier effort put Ireland in poor condition. After dropping many wickets for low runs G.Delany showed some batter effort than other Batsman and scored 26 runs in 14 balls with two 4s and two 6s. This target was so easy for any team and India is a strong team in world. But I disappointed the effort of Kohli in game because he did not perform well and also did not scored good runs only made 1 and lost wicket. Yadav was also bowled out after scoring only 2 runs hope he showed good struggle in next game with Pakistan.

Australia vs Oman

The 10th match of T20 World Cup between Oman and Australia has started. Oman won the toss and elected to bowl. Australia batsmen did not perform well today. Travis Head, the player who performed well in IPL, did not perform well today, he was dismissed for 12 runs off 10 balls. Mitchell Marsh is out for 14 off 21 balls. Glenn Maxwell he is currently performing very badly, got out with 1 ball today too. Against a team like Australia, Oman's bowlers have bowled very well which is commendable. So far Australia has collected 60 runs in 11 overs losing 3 wickets. If Australia score 120+ it will be difficult for Oman to chase. Let's see how many runs Australia can give the target in the end.

Disappointing for the Australians. First of all, they could manage a total of only 164/5, with Travis Head, Mitchell Marsh and Glenn Maxwell getting out cheaply. They really struggled against the Omani spinner Aqib Ilyas Sulehri, who returned figures of 4-0-18-0. And while bowling, they had Oman at 57/6, but then allowed them to reach 125/9. On a positive note, Mitchell Starc, Nathan Ellis, Marcus Stoinis and Adam Zampa were among the wickets. But they were expensive at times.

Australian openers struggled against an associate team; this is a matter of concern for the Aussies. Warner was off-colour and struggled to connect the ball at times. He also consumed a lot more deliveries than one can expect. Marcus Stoinis saved them from humiliation and scored at a good strike rate. Oman bowlers did well in the first phase of their bowling. In the end, a target of 165 runs was too much to ask from Oman batters especially when they are up against quality Australian bowlers. This game will certainly boost the Oman team's confidence. 

In 10th game of world cup Australia beat Oman by 39 runs. Oman gave the target of 165 runs to oman David Warner make fifty while what an brilliant performance by Marcus Stoinis played excellent innings of 67 runs also bowling well takes 3 wickets his all rounder performance plays a important role to won this game against Oman. Mitchell Starc, Adam zampa and Nathan Ellis also took 2, 2 wickets Australia will play his next match against England after that their remaining 2 matches of group stage with Namibia and Scotland. I think it will be easy for kangaroos to handle these teams. No difficult situation for Australia team to qualify for super Eight of this World cup tournament.

The next big match is on Saturday, when New Zealand will take on Afghanistan. There are a total of 4 matches taking place on Saturday. Apart from AFG vs NZL, the other matches are BAN vs SL, NED vs SA and AUS vs ENG. The last one (Australia vs England) is going to be one of the toughest matches in the group phase of this tournament. And this is a match between two of the tournament favorites. For India, the big match will take place on Sunday, when they will take on Pakistan.

Between Afghanistan and New Zealand, New Zealand has more chances to win.
Between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, I will put Sri Lanka ahead for now because Bangladesh's performance is not very positive at the moment. Especially losing the series against the United States has lifted my confidence from Bangladesh.
In the match between Netherlands and South Africa, South Africa has a high probability to win.
Between Australia and England it will be very difficult to make predictions at this moment especially looking at the overall performance I will put Australia ahead of England but nothing can be said with 100% sure.

Australia team faced against Oman in the tenth match of the World Cup. On paper, Australia is the stronger of the two teams and even though they have won the T20 World Cup a couple of times, they could not score much against Oman. When we watched these two teams play we thought Australia would score more than 200 runs but they scored only 164 runs there. Australia's opening batsman David Warner scored a half-century but he batted in ODI style in his T20s. Debbie Orner scored just 56 off 51 balls but Marquis Stoinis played the most effective innings as he scored 67 off 36 balls. We expected this kind of innings from every Australian batsman but they failed to do so till the end Australia kept their team standard and won by just 39 runs.

Yes it is surprise that it bring weak to the target. As their batsmen are fast and perform well they could not give the target. But they would win this match. Yes their batsmen could not work hard and struggle in the match but their bowler stop their batsmen on 125 and won the match. If Australia had lost the match against Oman it would have been a shame for the Australia team. But it could not happen. A batsman and bowler like Maxwell could not score many run against Oman. They need to improve their hard work because anything can happen at any time.

Today today two matches of Men T20 World cup will being played and one of them already completed on crease which was finished among Oman sqaud against Australia sqaud. If we see their comparison according to their experience and their performance among them they are completely one sided and totally unfair clash. This has been proved Australia squad in today match by emerging victorious by beating Oman squad with good difference of scores. Some Australian batter was not displayed good performance like Travis Head top class batter was wiped out at 12 scores other two mire batter Maxwell and Marsh also was not showcased their actual and best strength in batting Inning. Thanks to David Warner and Marcus Stoinis for securing today's victory by displaying unbeatable performance in batting.

Other match of this same T20 World Cup Pakistan Against USA sqaud is playing their match on crease and one inning is already finished and Both sqauds are in good condition right now and have good possibility for both sqauds to emerge victory let's watch out at end of fight.

United States vs Pakistan

USA surprised everyone and beat a strong team like Pakistan. Yesterday, Pakistan batted first and collected 159 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in the allotted overs. Pakistan batsmen could not perform well. If Pakistan's bowling line could have improved then maybe Pakistan could have won this target. USA scored 159 runs for the loss of 3 wickets in the allotted overs, the match was tied. The Super Over was played USA won the Super Over. USA is at the top of the points table after winning both out of 2 matches. A few days ago USA beat Bangladesh, yesterday they beat a strong team like Pakistan. Congratulations to USA for defeating a strong team like Pakistan.

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/06/07/c6fYD.jpeg

Namibia batted well but all of Namibia's batters collected 155/9 from 20 overs. The ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 score is not good for Namibia. Because already there many more strong teams played to get toffee. To reach that score Scotland lost 5 major wickets. For that, I want to say "It's a Cricket game, anything will occur at any time." There isn't any option to give less importance to any team. It's World Cup Cricket. So, give your best to perform well.

Why did Pakistan use a third rated bowler for the super over? They could have easily gone for Afridi or Shah. They lost because they never took the game seriously and the US tream took them ver seriously. The fielding of the US team was at its best as Pakistan were only able to hit a 4 in the first 10 overs.

I watched this match live. But I didn't bet on this match because I saw the performance of USA players against Bangladesh a few days ago. Team USA managed to perform well against USA and USA won the series against Bangladesh. So I doubted whether Pakistan would win this match. And finally Pakistan team lost against a small team like USA.

https://i.ibb.co/TwQWLdP/scrnli-6-7-2024-10-47-27-AM.png

Pakistan set a target of 159 runs. The USA team managed to draw the match by collecting 14 runs in the last over. Captain Monak Patel scored 50 runs. USA's batsmen have worked hard to win because of this. Team USA scored 18 runs in power play and Pakistan managed to score only 13 runs. Pakistan's experienced batsmen were caught by the USA bowlers.

Much appreciate it! The USA isn't a normal team. They already defeated Bangladesh and won a series. Also today they gave their best performance against Pakistan. For that, they occur a tied match with Pakistan. So we can say that the USA team isn't the poorest team. They're already a strong team like another experienced team. I hope very soon they will catch ICC toffee. Congratulations USA team for their valuable performance.

Uganda vs Papua New Guinea:

In Uganda vs Papua New Guinea game, Uganda team won the toss and Uganda selected to bat first. Uganda played a good match and their performance was impressive. Everyone in their team showed their skills really well.The performance of Uganda team in the match was full strength and energy. The Uganda best batting performance in the man team was showed by Riazat Ali Shah. Uganda won 10th match with a lot of good runs and 9th match was also won with a lot of good runs record. Papua new Guinea lost every time and this was the second lose of this tournament. Juma miyagi  very talented bowler and performed with good strength and spirit. The 10th match between Uganda man and Papua new Guinea man was played at Providence stadium. Riazat Ali Shah scored 33 runs and 56 balls hitting 1 fours and 0 sixs and displayed amazing struggle by making good runs record. Congratulations to Uganda and best wishes for their upcoming matches.

Yesterday all the attention was taken up by the Pakistan vs USA game. Did anyone watched the Namibia vs Scotland match? I was supporting Namibia, but being one of the top associate nations Scotland managed to win the match quite handsomely. Namibia got to a decent total of 155/9, thanks to Gerhard Erasmus and Zane Green. But then Scotland batsmen chased down the target with plenty of overs to spare. Ruben Trumpelmann and David Wiese were not very effective against Scotland.

USA is playing a great game as a new country. A few days ago America won the series against Bangladesh by two to one margin and yesterday America beat Pakistan in Superhit. It can be thought! The USA's new host nation is playing very well. I think Bangladesh and Pakistan should learn from the USA.

On the other hand, it was natural that Scotland would win the game between Namibia and Scotland. Because I look at Namibia's record, there is no way they can beat a country like Scotland. Scotland is not such a bad country as America. I don't know if you know Scotland I've seen them play before, they play well.

It's good to see someone think about creating an exclusive discussion thread for T20WC-2024. I have been busy with my prediction thread and could not create one. Thanks, @Bitcoinsummoner for creating an exclusive discussion thread for the WC. BTW, can you also explain to me why you added WI in your poll? I couldn't understand the reason behind it since they are one of the weakest teams in the WC.

Yesterday's match between Pakistan and the USA can become the biggest upset in this WC. I never expected the Pakistan team to play so poorly as they are known to have the best seamers in the world. The game went up to the Super over but Mohammad Amir messed it up royally, because of him Pakistan lost the game to a debutant team. This humiliating loss can make this team depressed and they might be unable to go further. I hope the team gets themselves together and again expect a miracle to help the slide over.

The USA bowling line-up surprised Pakistan batters by bowling in good line and length. Pakistan batter threw away their wickets when a partnership was needed. Pakistan's middle order is a major concern for them and will be a big minus against India. Pakistan should revisit basics after the World Cup and select players who can perform under pressure in crunch matches.

Scotland was way better than Namibia, and the way they played against England, I was certain that they would beat Namibia quite easily. They have improved a lot in recent years.

I think paksitan can even win before a super over because they have plenty of runs left to safe in last over but due to substandard last over performance of Haris become the main reason to paksitan loss and just like you had mentioned why they didn't go towards Naseem and Shaheen for super over so the things is baber azam were mostly criticise for favoritism so that why he goes for Amir instead of his favourite Shaheen or naseem.

Yeh to be honest paksitan and USA match were so intense so we can't get the second game to watch, anyway the way Scotland player against England and brutally smashed thier top bowler so it was clear that they will have potential to beat top side of thier group so I was sure about Scotland win against namabian team it's true that they have huge international event experience but still unable to stand against Scotland. Hope we will get some exciting matches to watch soon

The Scots were just unlucky. They got to 90/0 after 10 overs at the Kensington Oval in Barbados, but then the match got washed out. There was a good chance that they could have got to a total of 200 plus. George Munsey and Michael Jones were in supreme form and they were smashing the England bowlers all around the park. Chris Jordan and Adil Rashid both went for more than 12 runs per over. Anyway, they got two points against Namibia later and now they are the group toppers with 3 points.

At the mid of the game when the game was moving from the hands of Pakistan in the first innings but then Babar Azam and Shadab Khan tried to come back in the match by doing some responsible batting which was lacking in the whole of the Pakistan team.

In that time, when a new bowler came then Shadab Khan started to hit back-to-back sixes and after hitting two back-to-back sixes, the bowler came in tension then he applied a mastermind plan which was, he gave a wide ball to Shadab Khan that caused his momentum could be destroyed and then it was, after that he took a single and then once again a beginning singles and doubles. The USA bowlers had a better gambe plan and they executed it to perfection.

Thank you for your feedback. I hope you and the seniors support me here. Also, you ask me about the team WI. If they have the ability to win WC before. But very recently their performance was very poor. A few years ago, I liked their performance like the batsman of Chris Gayle, Karan Pollard, Brian Lara, Dwayne Smith, Jerome Taylor, and so on. Also, I was a big fan of WI.

No doubt Bitcoinsummoner, you have done really good for the community to create a dedicated discussion thread for this World Cup 2024. Although we can discuss the matches in    
T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5102095.0), but it is always good to see a separate discussion thread for the major ICC events.  :)

---

I was thinking if there was any positive from the Pakistan cricket team in this match. After some analysis, I found that all Pakistan bowlers just focused on giving the yorker and they are very clever. They had idea of which batsmen play on which side, then just imagine if a player playing on the offside then they gave the ball onto the leg stump and the same on the side difference. If a player like to hit on the leg side then they were giving the Yorkers onto the off stump, that was the trick of Pakistani bowlers but also most of the time, they tried to deliver a perfect Yorker on the middle stump and they were also doing that which was not good for USA batsmen.

The Ireland team is now playing against Canada. Ireland lost the first match. But this group is not too weak. Ireland have a strong enough squad for the T20 format. Despite failing to perform well against an experienced team like India, Ireland's players will make no mistake in today's match. Ireland team will try to win against Canada in any way. And in today's match I bet Ireland to win.

Ireland won the toss and elected to field. Canada team collected 137 runs losing 7 wickets in 20 overs. A target of 138 runs cannot be called a big target. The performance of almost every bowler of Ireland was very controlled in this match. Canada's innings stopped at 137 runs due to the good performance of Ireland's bowlers. Ireland will probably win this match. Even the pitch is not batting friendly. Ireland's players have to perform very carefully.

Team Canada can't deliver big targets. But with the pitch conditions as I saw it, a target of 138 is possible to win if Canada's bowlers are able to bowl responsibly and under control. I know Team Canada is weak. But I see no reason to think the Ireland team is strong either. The performance of Ireland team batsmen is very erratic. However, there are several talented batsmen in Ireland's squad.

At the end of 8 overs, Ireland's collection is only 43 runs and Ireland have lost 3 wickets. So far the match has been completely under the control of Canada's bowlers. Ireland's batsmen batting is very slow. But I would say that Canada's bowlers are bowling well in this match. This is why Ireland's batsmen are not able to take advantage.

I bet on Ireland to win. And today I am going to lose my money. I have seen the performance of Ireland's batsmen in the past. Andy Balbirnie, Paul Stirling, Tucker, Tector, Campher and Dockrell are good enough batsmen for the T20 format. Every batsman is capable of batting at a smart strike rate. But I don't know what happened to the Ireland team today. No batsman is batting well. Ireland team is definitely going to lose today's match.

https://i.ibb.co/hKJC82g/scrnli-6-7-2024-11-25-39-PM.png

Ireland team collected only 62 runs in 13 overs. And the team lost 6 wickets. Ireland's batsmen are unable to score an average of 5 runs per over. Since there is no experienced batsman in the squad, and already lost 6 wickets, Ireland team. I don't see any chance for Ireland to win this match. I doubt if Ireland's batsmen can collect even 100 runs. Andy Balbirnie scored 17 runs for Ireland. Besides, no other batsman can bat well.

If the required run rate reach above 12 on this pitch, it will be difficult to pursue. It must be difficult for the Ireland team at this moment. Now they need 42 runs from 20 balls. Even if the wicket does not fall, if there are no big shorts then there is no chance of winning the match. Since the pitch condition is bad, Canada's chances of winning this match is very high. Ireland is in great form at the moment but some of their early wickets may have led them to lose this match. The pitch report is not good they may lose this match due to the batsmen overusing some balls.

We are currently having another interesting match in T20i World Cup with Canada entertaining Ireland with after winning toss Ireland decided to field first which was good decision, and they restricted Canada at the target of 137 Nicholas Kirton was hero for the Canada as he hits 49 runs on 35 balls and Shreyas Movva give him good support with his 37 runs.

In reply Ireland having troubling time as their batting lineup fail to have good start after having 59 for 6 things were looking not good, but they fight back and now having 121 after 19 overs, but I have feeling this match is going to be A Canadian way in last over they needed 17 runs, but first 2 balls give them huge setback, and now it's all set for the Canadian win.

Ireland team needed 16 runs to win in the last over. But Ireland's batsmen have collected only 4 runs in the last over. Ireland was defeated by 12 runs. However, if Dockrell and Mark Adair did not bat well, Ireland's innings would have stopped before 100. Dockrell scored 30 runs off 23 balls and Mark Adair scored 34 runs off 24 balls.

Canada won this match only because of the excellent bowling by the bowlers. Jeremy Gordon took two wickets for just 16 runs in 4 overs. And Dillon Heyliger picked up two wickets for just 18 runs in 4 overs. Saad Bin Zafar's bowling was also very good.

It was a thriller game played today Canadian team gave an excellent performance they won the match by 12 runs. Ireland team failed to chased this target they could made 125/7 only. in the last over they need 17 runs Jeremy Gordon Bowan was excellent over he conceded only 4 runs and took the important wicket of M Adair on 34 runs. Ireland effort till the last ball but unlucky to won the match against Canada after losing the first match to the USA gets 2 points in the second match Ireland's team lost wickets quickly no player from Ireland team made a big partnership which caused a lose excellent bowling by Jeremy Gordon and Dillon Heyliger to take 2, 2 wickets.

What is happening in this T20 World Cup? Another bug upset Afghanistan defeating New Zealand by a big margin. The target to chase given by Afghanistan to New Zealand was 159 runs but they could not even score 100 runs. The whole team got out in the 16th over after scoring 75 runs in total. Such kind of upsets were meant to happen but not so early in the tournament.

It will be a big match for both the teams, India and Pakistan. In this match, both teams have been getting confused and the pressure to play good, in this match is too much on the players.
Most of the time, due to pressure the players are getting pressurized and their good performance turns into bad performance after hearing the sound of the crowd. Sometimes when the ball goes up and a fielder can take it easily, the fielder also drops by mistake due to hearing too much noise from the crowd which causes conferment for the player. This is such a pressure match and suspenseful, the most pressure there when the game goes until the last ball.

It is worth knowing the previous records between the two teams in all the formats of the game. India vs Pakistan Cricket All-Time Records in T20, ODI & Test (https://www.fun88-inr.com/blog/india-vs-pakistan-cricket-all-time-records/)

Thank you for your positive response. If this thread gets the support of you and most of the seniors then this thread will be popular soon. I hope all of the members give their support to popularize this thread. It's a game that is worldwide popular most of the time. There lot of games but Football, Cricket, Tanis, and Golf are most known by the world's people.



Obviously, it will be a big match for all time. Very recently India has been the strongest team from all of the teams. It would be possible to open the world's biggest festival "IPL means Indian Premium League". IPL builds a lot of players inside India in all of the states here and there. IPL was a great decision for the Indian Cricket Council to build their cricket team stronger than their previous team. I think if any nations want to live better from their past then they should create a unique step that grows their nations organically.
Best wishes to the Indian Cricket Teams. They only need the best bowling line for them to rank top worldwide.

Afghanistan   vs   New Zealand

I was very surprised to see the result of Afghanistan vs New Zealand match. Afghanistan team has proved it once again that they have been able to improve a lot in cricket. Afghanistan players have performed well. Afghanistan players have been able to take full advantage of the bowling friendly pitch.

Afghanistan managed to set a target of 160 runs. However, since New Zealand's squad is very experienced. So New Zealand was likely to win. But today we saw terrible batting from New Zealand batsmen. New Zealand lost all the wickets to collect only 75 runs. New Zealand's batsmen could not survive the brilliant bowling of Fazalhaq Farooqi and Rashid Khan. These two bowlers took 4 wickets each.

I am really surprised to see New Zealand's Buttsmen performance. It was unimaginable to bat such a bad bat. Daryl Mitchell, Williamson, Phillips, and Santner showed great performance at the IPL a while back. No one can guess that the New Zealand team will face such a batting disaster in such an important match in the World Cup. I expected a more responsible batting from New Zealand's Buttsmen.

https://i.ibb.co/DW2rGyz/scrnli-6-8-2024-2-38-38-PM.png

Glenn Phillips was able to score a maximum of 5 runs. The batting of the four buttsmen of the top order was also very bad. Top order experienced 5 buttsmen were not able to collect up to 5 runs. If you perform this way, the New Zealand team will not be able to qualify for the next round. New Zealand will face New Zealand in the next match. New Zealand will surely be defeated against the West Indies if New Zealand's Buttsmen batting such bad.

You are right. New Zealand players performed very well in the last IPL. So our expectations were higher than New Zealand in this World Cup. At least we thought New Zealand would qualify for the next round. But after losing by a huge margin of 84 runs against Afghanistan, I don't think this team can make a comeback. The New Zealand team managed to collect only 75 runs in 15.2 overs.

Afghanistan team performed well on such a bowling friendly pitch. Several talented bowlers are in the Afghanistan squad. And the Afghanistan players are now more experienced as they perform regularly in various franchise leagues. Afghanistan team now tops the Group C points table with two wins.

I am not feeling so excited about the match in India vs Pakistan. Because I know India will win in this match. This match is always high voltage because India is a political conflict between Pakistan. If we compare these two teams in the over -performance in the last few years, then it is seen that the Pakistan team is far behind in India. Pakistani fans feel bad to hear this, but this is true.

The Pakistan team failed to win against a team like USA. So how do we expect that Pakistan's players will defeat a strong team like India? The Pakistan team will also be defeated badly against India. The condition of Pakistan is now very shaky.

It was a commanding performance from Afghanistan with the ball and bat. They outplayed New Zealand in every department. In this year's World Cup, we are witnessing major upsets, first, the USA beat Pakistan and now this match. Things are getting interesting and we might see more upsets in the upcoming matches. In the past few months, limited cricket from New Zealand cast them in the game.

I never expected a team like NZ getting defeated by AFG. These guys have been become the second best team from South Asia.Another big upset in this T20WC-2024 after Pakistan getting defeated.

Looking at the current scenario of group A. Canada defeated Ireland and if the US is able to defeat Ireland then Pakistan will be out of this tournament. The same applies for NZ as the teams are not that good in that group.

Sri Lanka played a powerful match but at end of game their team lost and Bangladesh played a very good match scoring a lot of runs and winning the match. Bangladesh played exceptionally well and emerged victorious with a splendid performance on the field. Their hard work and determination truly paid off in this match. The best batting performance in the Bangladesh man Rishad Hussain. I hope Sri Lanka will play better in the next match Sri Lanka.. Bangladesh team players showed excellent teamwork and skill on the field. Bangladesh teams played great. From my side and very sorry Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka made 124 runs and this target gave to Bangladesh team which look bad and poor. Bangladesh easily chased small and poor target and made125 runs and won the match. The 15th match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh played at grand Prairie stadium. Sri Lanka team would not won the toss and but Bangladesh gave a batting chance to Sri Lanka first. The power batting performance in the Bangladesh man team was by Rishad Hussain scored  1 runs and  3 balls hitting 0 fours and 0 six but in bowl he took 3 wickets. The best batting performance in the man team was by towhid haridoy scored 40 runs and 20 balls hitting 1 fours and 6 sixs. Congratulations to Bangladesh for upcoming matches.

Yes I am also surprised about the performance of sqauds in T20 World Cup high standard and top amazing squads was defeated by normal rank squads like Afghanistan, USA etc. First Pakistan sqaud was lose the by USA squad now today New Zealand big sqaud was faced beat from Afghanistan sqaud. New Zealand squad provided such a bad and worst strength in this match especially in batting Inning. Whole New Zealand batters did not display actual and their real performance against Afghanistan bowlers and all of them was wiped out at just 75 scores. This competition is becoming so unpredictable and we can not predict who will emerge victory even if match is being played among top class sqaud and low class sqaud. Same situation happen another today match among Sri Lanka sqaud against Bangladesh sqaud, Sri Lanka sqaud was defeated by Bangladesh sqaud. But New Zealand squad's situation was worst then Sri Lanka against Bangladesh match's situation.

Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka

Today the match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh was very competitive. Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bowl. Sri Lanka batted first and collected 124 runs for the loss of 9 wickets. Sri Lanka set a target of 125 runs which was not enough to win. The Sri Lankan bowlers tried hard but in the end they were defeated. Bangladesh lost 2 wickets in first 2 overs then I thought it will be difficult for Bangladesh to chase the target. Towhid Hridoy and Liton Das' brilliant partnership led the team to victory. Towhid Hridoy was dismissed for 40 off 20 balls. Liton Das was dismissed for 36 off 38 balls. Bangladesh lost against USA a few days ago, so I thought Bangladesh won't win today but ended up winning by 2 wickets. The contribution of the bowlers was the most behind the victory of Bangladesh.

As you can see there is too much rivalry in today's cricket but have you ever thought about why it became so suspenseful like goes to the last balls and before it was not too high?  Never underestimate the clash between these two teams, it is always epic no matter how unbalanced one team may be as compared to the other team.

https://i.ibb.co/D8SKTkY/Paki.jpg


Behind these rivalries, there is the hand of T20 cricket, without T20 the rivalries are not complete as you can see from history Pakistan vs India match is too famous but when it is on a test or one day, it takes too much time and when the match comes to end then on that time, all interest and waits went down but in T20, the match is so good and full of excitement. Even though Pakistan is in the worst of forms still people are waiting to see the match as to who wins it on the day.  ;)

Australia  VS  England

The high voltage England vs Australia match is about to start shortly. Both these teams are worthy contenders for this year's World Cup. And both are aiming to win the T20 World Cup title. So both teams will try their best to win the match.

England captain Jos Buttler won the toss and took the fielding decision. The pitch is not batting friendly. In most matches we have seen that teams batting later can do well if the batsmen are able to bat responsibly. England's batsmen are very experienced. So I think the decision of fielding after winning the toss is correct.

Australia won their first match against Oman. However, England's performance in the first match against Scotland was not good. The match was abandoned. However, England's bowlers could not take any of Scotland's wickets. Scotland collected 90 runs in 10 overs. If England's bowlers don't bowl well today, Australia will win. I will bet on Australia to win today.

Despite having the worst start of this event for the Pakistan team fans are desperately waiting for this match which is going to play in New York on tomorrow Sunday and India is clearly favourite for the win but things are still exciting because fans are looking for the good cricket between these two teams in ICC events India is having good advantage against Pakistan and with the lost of their first game against USA now Pakistan looking for their first win in this event is creating some good excitement.

Indian bowlers and batsmen are having good time after giving their best in IPL and Pakistani team which is having the worst time after losing two games against England and now USA making things hyper for the fans of both countries.

Yes I was also very surprise to see his perform in the first match.  And was very happy to see the perform of this match.  Afghanistan have really shown that they are trying to improve and I hope they will do the same in the upcoming matches.  Afghanistan players are perform well in every match.  I am very impress watching their matches.  And those who were disappoint after seeing their first perform are now happy too.This target was made by their batsmen at the loss of 6 wickets.  But it was not that easy but their bowler made the target more difficult with good bowling and won the match.  His bowler won the match by taking 10 wickets in 15 overs.  I am very happy with their perform and also Pakistan team can improve itself.  Congratulations to me from Afghanistan on the win.

Wao what a surprising results shown by Bangladesh cricket after a magnificent comback from terrible defeat against United states, to be honest I wasn't expecting Bangladesh to win against sirilankan team especially in World cup because in recent time they brutally lost a bilateral series against sirilankan team where they have some heat moments with sirilankan team regarding Mathew time out dismissal so things got messy but they way they beat them I am totally impressed and here the credit completely goes to thier bowlers because they spectacularly delivered and restrict them below a very low target compared to any other top class team and here they properly utilize this advantage and won the match

The way Australia's two openers started their innings I thought Australia would give a target of 200+ today. Australia scored 70 runs in the first 5 overs in two openers. However, Australia's batting has slowed down a bit since Warner got out. And Australia collected only 15 runs in the last two overs. Australia's innings ended at 200 runs. A target of 202 runs is a big enough target on this pitch. But the England team has experienced batsmen. Although the target is big, England has the ability to win the match. England will definitely play to win.

England's two openers Phil Salt and Buttler are batting well. At the end of 3 overs, England managed to collect 31 runs. Salt scored 12 runs off 6 balls and Buttler scored 16 runs.

Australia's two openers Travis Head and Warner got off to a good start as Australia managed to post a big total of 201 runs. Travis Head scored 34 runs off 18 balls and Warner scored 39 runs off 16 balls. Australia's two openers batted very aggressively.

We have seen good performances from England's two openers.
Salt returned to the dressing room with 37 off 23 balls and Buttler with 42 off 28 balls. England's collection is 93/2 in 10 overs.

England need to collect 109 runs in 10 overs to win. Collecting 109 runs in 60 balls is not an easy task. Moreover, Australian bowlers are very experienced. If Will Jacks and Baistwo bat well, England has a chance to win. Because these two batsmen are capable of batting at a smart strike rate.

I was very disappointed after seeing the batting of Bangladesh team. I thought that Bangladesh team will not be able to win beyond this 124 runs today. But in the last stage Bangladesh team won by 2 wickets. When Bangladesh team batsman Shakib Al Hasan got out, I was worried.  Bangladesh team may not be able to win today. However, Bangladesh team has overcome all obstacles and won today's match.

It's true that Australian were looking a bit off colour in early stage against Oman but late they have strong Thier grip and despite losing several number of wickets they played fearless cricket without any pressure, I think they took them very lightly so that's why we have such numbers otherwise if we look at overall Australian performance they are top of table. Anyway I am really frustrated how can I team be so perfect in every situation(Australia), Even it's completely bowling friendly track still they scored a 200 which is I think one of the highest target of this tournament till now and then thier bowler restrict thier opponent by edge of bowling friendly track which work for them compared to England and I am sure if Australia doesn't won the final at least they will play final.

Australia vs England game, this was the 17 th game of ICC T20 series from Group B and this game was also ended yesterday. Both teams in this game was very strong and also have great spirit and much experience of cricket. England women toss and they got a chance to choose bat or bowl and England gave a bat opportunity to first Australia team. Australia team beated the bowlers of England team very poorly and made 201 runs target in 20 overs by losing 7 wickets. All players of Australia team played normally from 1 st to 5 th batsman. Warner was dismissed but he scored 39 runs for their team and gave good effort to team for win. Head opener batsman he also played greatly with 34 runs in 18 balls. But England team was failed to chase target and lost game by 36 runs their batsman played good but their bowler showed very poor effort. Congratulations Zampa for winning player of game award for to brilliant bowling effort and he took down 2 wickets in 4 overs with 28 runs. Keep it up Australia team for next games.

Pakistan vs India are the greatest competitors each other. About 20 years when the player named Shahid Anower was a legendary player of Pakistan. In his time, the Pakistani batting line was so strong. That time most of the players won Pakistan. But now India is so strong that for creating the largest festival IPL. IPL creates so many players in India. For that, I can say India will win today's match without any doubt.

It is said to be El Classico of the World Cup. But after seeing the recent form of the Pakistan team, I highly doubt that if we see the old competitive matches like they used to be. Pakistan have lost to the Ireland team and USA team in the recent few matches. On the other hand, Indian players have come after playing IPL tournaments. Hence, the only thing that makes today’s match interesting is the USA pitch. Let’s see if any team today crosses the 100-run mark. Moreover, it will be Virat Kohli vs. Pakistan; VK have always dominated against the Pakistan team in the T20 world cup. Let’s see what outcomes we see today.

Uganda is possibly the weakest team in this World Cup. Newer and smaller teams are doing quite well in this World Cup. The performance of Papua New Guinea, Oman, Ireland, Scotland, Netherlands and USA is quite good. But while Uganda also won against Papua New Guinea, they lost by huge margins against Afghanistan and the West Indies. Uganda lost by 125 runs against Afghanistan and 134 runs against West Indies.

West Indies team set a target of 174 runs. Almost every batsman in the West Indies squad has been able to bat well. But the Ugandan players needed to bat a bit better. Uganda managed to collect only 39 runs. Akeal Hosein took 5 wickets for just 11 runs.

In the match between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, many people's heart rate increased when Bangladesh were batting. The Bangladesh team managed to restrict Sri Lanka to very few runs but they struggled to get past those few runs. The two opening batsmen of the Bangladesh team, Soumya Sarkar and Tanjid Hasan Tamim, could not do much in the beginning. As a result, Bangladesh fell into danger from the beginning but if Tawheed Hriday had not played an innings of 40 runs from 20 balls Bangladesh might not have won. And towards the end Mahmudullah Riyad played a great role mainly because of his batting style as the Bangladesh team somehow won by two wickets at the last moment. This is Bangladesh team's first win in this World Cup. Wish Bangladesh team to go ahead and play better against the opposition team.

You are right the most important and excitement match of world cup 2024 will be played today between Pakistan and India. Pakistan lost their opening match from the United states and shown very disappointing performance by lossing in super over, But I think don't underestimate the power of Pakistan team in  world cup 2022 they lost first match from india and Zimbabwe but after that the brilliantly comeback and goes to the final of world cup. I think India will go the same playing XI against the Ireland but Pakistan make one change in playing XI they out Azam khan and selected all rounder Imad Wasim hope the match is full of excitement between Pakistan and India and my heart say Pakistan will win this match and stay alive in this World cup.

Pakistan vs India matches are always competitive. Be it Test, ODI or T20. As the reason behind this I will talk about Pakistan-India political relations. Political rivalry can now be seen on the cricket field as well. India vs Pakistan match in the history of cricket has the highest attendance at the stadium and the spectators enjoy this match a lot. A large number of spectators enjoy the match at the stadium as well as on TV broadcasts and social media broadcasts.

Analysis: India vs Pakistan match is always competitive. Pakistan lost to USA in the opening match of the World Cup. It was a nightmare for Pakistan cricket team and Pakistan supporters. This match will be a do or die match for Pakistan team. Pakistan team will definitely want to win today's match by any means. Even Pakistan team has the ability to win matches against India. Pakistan team has many star players.
On the other hand, India started their World Cup journey against Ireland with a huge margin of victory. India team has many star players. Indian cricket team will never want to lose to Pakistan cricket team. They will play with their maximum. India will certainly give their supporters a competitive match against Pakistan.

I will put Pakistan ahead of India in today's match. Because it is a do or die match for Pakistan. Pakistan may have to withdraw from the 2024 T20 World Cup if they lose this match. Super 8 will not rise. As a result, they will want to win today's match anyway.

An important match for Pakistan today as they will be playing against India. It is a must-win game for Pakistan otherwise they might not be in Super 8. If India wins today then they will be in the top in their group. The match is going to be played in NY and the weather forecast for today is rain. If the match gets suspended then we as fans will miss an exciting game of T20 cricket. I do not want the rains to play spoilsports a delay in overs or start is still ok for me. BTW, I am slowly losing interest in matches between these two teams as the outcome is always one-sided.

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/06/09/csU9H.jpeg

The score of India isn't suitable yet if they have 7 wickets yet—Rishabh 40 from 27 balls. If he stays a long run then the ending score will be strong against Pakistan. I hope today's match will be gone the favor of India, but we know the performance of Pakistan. Pakistan is also an experienced too. Pakistan will fight against India's player heart and soul to win this match. Everyone watch the match and enjoy it.

Currently, we are having very interesting situation with match is evenly poised for the Pakistan with their bowlers are doing good job specially Naseem Shah who took his third wicket even Pant is still on, and we can expect good fireworks from him in death overs, but things are going interesting because today we are having few good things for the Pakistan early wicket of Virat Kohli give them confidence and now after 14 overs we are having 96 for 5 which is good for the Pakistan but how things will be gone in remaining overs it's also interesting and Pakistani unpredictable batting can handle pressure it's another question.

It's unbelievable to see the recent performance of India. 89/3 from 10 overs but now 113/9. What a miracle it is! How is it possible for Pakistani Bowlers?  Mohammed Siraj is the last wicket for India. He is a strong bowler for the Indian team. I hope today's match is already critical for the Indian team to win. Already Indian match is over to 119 runs. Indian team is all out left with 6 balls. The final target is 120 from 20 overs. I hope Pakistan is easily able to chase the match. Congratulations Pakistan.

Bangladesh had won this match against Sri Lanka team with a narrow by just 2 wicket and Congratulations Bangladesh for great start in tournament. Sri Lanka did not play good in this tournament and their team losing back to back games and very difficult to select in top Super 8 Round . Rishad playing great in match and man of the game because of his outstanding bowling with getting 3 wickets conceded 22 runs and help a lot Bangladesh to restrict Sri Lanka under 130 runs. With low target, Bangladesh played exceptionally well with losing 8 wickets and chase all target.  Tawhid Hridoy batsman effort was brilliantly well and scored 19 runs in only one over which shifted game in Bangladesh's favor. Sri Lanka needs to improve its batting Inning effort if it hopes to win future matches.

I am also in shock how things are going for India in this game because things are clearly going out of the way with 120 is still good score, but it's not expected from them, but pitch is also not easy to bat which is having ups and downs and today Pakistani bowlers were up to mark which is another plus point for them Naseem Shah is game changer for them with Mohammad Amir and Haris Rauf done good job at the end because still I was having feeling India can go for the 150 which could be match winner in these conditions here at this ground.

Now after 12 overs we are having 72 for 2 and chances are 98% for the Pakistan from here can we have any miracle it's interesting because history is always having in favour of India.

Edit: We are having third wicket for India as Hardick Pandya takes Fakhar Zaman in 13th over, it's interesting.

India  vs  Pakistan

As expected, India won today's match against Pakistan as well. And perhaps no one is surprised by such a result. India was the favorite in this match. But the match was very competitive. Indian batsmen cannot bat well. India set a small target of just 120 runs. But Pakistan lost this match as usual. However, I did not expect anything better from Pakistan in this World Cup. This team is in very bad form. This Pakistan team cannot win against a small team like USA.


Oman vs  Scotland

Oman lost today's match too. However, Oman's players batted well. A descent of 151 runs gave Oman a target. But Oman lost the match due to bad bowling by the bowlers. Scotland collected 153 runs in just 13.1 overs. Scotland's batsmen have batted very aggressively. George Munsey scored 41 off 20 balls and Brandon McMullen scored 61 off 31 balls. Except for Bilal Khan, every bowler in Oman's squad has give a lot of runs.

History repeated again, Today India squad against Pakistan sqaud match was finished among them and both are in good condition and in this match rain disrupted but in small delay match again has begun with no more rain delay. After completing first inning, India squad did not collect good defeating of total 119 scores and I am very happy to see great performance of Pakistani bowlers against India sqaud and I totally believe that now this match was so simple for Pakistan batters to win but at end of this match, Pakistani batters displayed such a worst performance and very near to emerge victory bit unable and lost this match with 6 scores. No more hopes for Pakistan sqaud now in future matches their squad really in a very worst form and their sqaud need high level practice and improvement.

Some how we can say they lost due to bad bowling but to be honest Scotland are far away better from Oman in every department, if by chance some of you has watched Scotland against England then definitely you will know about the potential of them and will how how strong Thier batting order is especially such situation really suit them and if we look at statistics Scotland has much experienced team compared to them where some of them are Paksitani, indian, banglai etc. anyway Oman top order done a phenomenal job but collapse of thier middle order break thier momentum and when it come to Scotland to bat they really played sensibly and brutally opponent bowlers from start of thier innings to get dominance and put them under huge pressure

Whatever chances Pakistan had in today's match were dramatically defeated towards the end. Pakistan bowled out India for 119 runs but didn't think Pakistan would be able to take 113 runs in this case Pakistan should have got an easy win but Pakistan failed completely. Today was Pakistan's do or die match but in this match, Pakistan could not show themselves, so they were eliminated from the group stage of this year's T20 World Cup. It's a tough time for Pakistan as despite being a favorite team they were knocked out of this year's World Cup only because of their own failure.

We were waiting to see an easy victory for Pakistan, I knew that Pakistan had won very few matches against India in the World Cup. And so I bet on India to win. But after India set a small target of 120 I thought I would lose my money on this match and Pakistan would win. And the match was in Pakistan's control. But Pakistan's middle order batsmen have batted like fools. If the middle order batsmen could bat well, Pakistan would have had no problem in winning this match.

However, the Pakistan team lost against USA and India. I see no chance of qualifying for the next round. India and USA will qualify for the next round from Group A. However, if USA loses against Ireland, then Pakistan has a chance to qualify for the next round.

I am looking forward to watch South Africa vs Bangladesh match. South Africa is undoubtedly a stronger team than Bangladesh. However, Bangladesh is a bit lucky on such a batting friendly pitch. and able to win. If the pitch was batting friendly I would undoubtedly say that South Africa can beat Bangladesh easily. But considering the pitch I would say Bangladesh have a chance to win if they play responsibly.

Although South Africa won against the Netherlands earlier, South Africa's performance was not very good. South Africa lost 6 wickets despite batting at a target of only 104 runs. South Africa lost 3 wickets for 3 runs and 4 wickets for 12 runs. So today's match is also likely to be competitive.

The 15th match of Netherlands vs South Africa was quite exciting. Playing for a target of just 103 runs, South Africa's condition was very bad at that match. If David Miller picked up the wicket of South Africa, the Netherlands would have won the match easily. Since the pitch is very difficult to score, it is impossible to say which team will do well in today's match. Bangladesh's bowling line-up is not bad. If they can give South Africa a target of 140 runs today then they will have a chance in this match as well. But according to the T20 ranking South Africa team is much better. So the win in this match will be in favor of South Africa.

As the pitches are bowling friendly. So the matches are also likely to be competitive. The relatively young and new teams are able to perform well due to the bowling friendly pitch. We do not see the dominance of the big parties. Teams like New Zealand, India, South Africa, Pakistan and England are also not able to collect big on this pitch.

Although South Africa is a strong team, they did not play well against Netherlands. Moreover, Bangladesh team is able to perform well on bowling friendly pitches. So Bangladesh will play today's match with the aim of winning. Winning the match will not be easy for South Africa.

Yes, Pakistan could have won the match very easily but the poor performance of their batsmen lost the match.  Their batsmen were given a target of just 120 which was too easy and short.  But their batsmen will lose the match due to restlessness and losing their senses.  Babar Azam performed poorly and Rizwan also performed poorly.  I am very sorry for his performance not to score 120 runs from him.  Before playing the match, I had a feeling that Pakistan will never win this match because of their poor performance from all sides.  He got so many opportunities to improve himself but his team did not perform well and lost the match and will be out of the ICC World Cup.

There is a saying about Pakistan's current team that they are so unreliable that they do not know the meaning of reliability. 119 was the target to chase in a 20-over match, if the Pakistan batters had only rotated the strike and taken a single in every ball they would have won the match against India. Pakistan messed it up and now they might not be able to be part of this tournament.

The next match is with Canada and that team comprises of Indian subcontinent players and a few outsiders. Imagine they lose that game! I cannot because there was a time when Pakistan used to dominate ICC tournaments and now after getting trained by the Pakistan army they are playing like new teams in this tournament.

Indian batting was not that good but the bowling and fielding were incredible. Bhumrah destroyed the batting lineup of Pakistan when India needed a breakthrough, not to forget every Indian bowler was spot on and the fielding was outstanding.

As we can see, if Uganda won their previous match against a small team (Papua New Guinea) then their next match would be with West Indies and yesterday’s that match was played that was won by West Indies and the run rate that they had gained by the win against Papua New Guinea has been wasted just because they lost in very bad way to West Indies.

https://i.ibb.co/5KhrPTc/table.jpg

Seeing the above table, I think that there is a chance if the Uganda team loses their one remaining match then they are out but they can still qualify to win if they win their next games with a huge run rate but for that, they had to beat the New Zealand team. I don't think they are in the position to do that even though New Zealand aren't in the best of forms too.

T20 matches so there is no chance to say anything in advance. If only one batsman bats well then the whole turn of the match can change here. South Africa performed like this in the first match against Sri Lanka, on the other hand considering the performance of Bangladesh in their first match against Sri Lanka, we must put South Africa ahead. But the wickets are not behaving well in the games being held in America so it goes without saying that the match between Bangladesh and South Africa will also be a low scoring match.

This type of behavior by big teams has not been seen before in World Cup cricket. Recently, the American wicket is so hard that batsman has to be careful to play every ball. How will they play aggressively in this situation? In the beginning today South Africa won the toss and decided to bat because chasing is really difficult. But the run looks like it's a simple equation. If Bangladesh plays in other formats than T20, they can still win but how long they can hold on their wickets is the big question. They ended the game losing only 6 wickets to South Africa and retained the remaining wickets. It is clear that they tried to fight to stay on the pitch.

What to say now? I meant you already had 7-8 wickets in hand and just 45 runs were needed. Still, the team choked. After the wicket of Rizwan, the Pakistan team were just clueless. Like the Indian batters, Pakistanis also completely collapsed in the middle order. Yes, we need to praise the Indian team’s bowling attack, especially Bumrah and Axar. They did a great job by defending this low total. Moreover, we need to also praise Rohit Sharma for the amazing bowling rotations and brilliant captaincy. Now it’s very difficult for Pakistan to qualify for the next round.

Mohammad Rizwan, who is currently the best batsman in Pakistan's squad, was in doubt ever since he lost his wicket while playing a big short. But Rizwan's decision was correct even though he failed he wanted to put the team in a safe zone a little earlier. I don't see any failure from him but if he along with other team mates would have given a support they could have controlled the match. They looked like the 18th over would not play the big short. Despite these short runs, it is certainly admirable that India won the match. Obviously it would be difficult for Pakistan to go to the next round. And I think if a good team reached instead of Pakistan, we can enjoy a better match.

Yes, today's match was very competitive. South Africa batted first and collected 113 runs. Bangladesh had a chance to win today, needing 114 off 120 balls which was an easy target. But Bangladesh's top order batsmen could not perform well, as a result of which Bangladesh finally lost by 4 runs. Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Litton Das, Shakib Al Hasan they all performed poorly, Bangladesh could have won if the top order batsmen did a bit better. Towhid Hridoy batted well against Sri Lanka last match, he batted very well today too. Nazmul Hossain Shanto performed very poorly, he has performed very poorly in the last few matches, I do not expect such a performance as a captain. Both Jaker Ali and Mahmudullah should have had a higher strike rate. Bangladesh's bowling line was very good today, if the batting line was a bit better then Bangladesh could have won.

Bangladesh team captain Nazmul Hasan Shant is failing to use appropriate tactics. Bangladesh team has to lose today's game by a small margin of four runs, in this place there is a deficit of four runs between each batsman, you notice that the captain of Bangladesh team Nazmul Hasan Shanto collected 14 runs in 23 balls. This type of game performed like a Test match and not a T20 game, so if the players could have scored good runs from the start then surely they would not have lost by four runs. Aggressive batting at the start caused this deficit.

Bangladeshi players do not tend to play aggressive innings.  You are the only one in the Bangladesh squad except Tawheed Hriday, all the other players have batted in Test style for which Bangladesh suffered a four-run defeat yesterday. Bangladesh had an easy target yesterday which any team would have met but Bangladesh failed completely here as the top order batsmen especially Nazmul Hasan Shanto are basically considered as one of the main reasons for losing the match tomorrow. I can't think of Nazmul Hasan Shanto as a T20 player in any way because this easy match yesterday was lost only because of his Test style of batting. He was a top order batsman of Bangladesh and batting in Test style in such a reckless defensive manner was not appropriate at all.

In the 21st match of South Africa vs Bangladesh team, South Africa team won the match by 4 runs. South Africa team came out to bat and gave a target of 113 runs, losing 6 wickets in 20 overs. Bangladesh team came out to bat and scored 109 runs, losing 7 wickets in 20 overs.  Fact is Bangladesh team lost this match by 4 runs. I see Shakib Al Hasan started batting bad for few days. If Shakib Al Hasan scored 10 runs in this match then it would have been much easier for Bangladesh team to win this match.

We know that Bangladesh squad's batting order is very weak. Bangladesh will probably qualify for the next round I am saying this because the pitch is bowling friendly. This is the reason why Bangladesh has the possibility of winning several matches. In yesterday's match as well, we saw that the Bangladeshi bowlers performed well. The performance of Bangladeshi pace bowlers really surprised me.

Shakib and SHanto are not in form. Liton's performance is very erratic. Apart from Towhid Hridoy and Mahmudullah, I don't see any player batting well in the Bangladesh squad. Also I don't understand why Bangladesh included Jaker Ali in the squad. When there are so many problems within a team, it is very difficult for the team to perform well and win. Even then, if luck was with Bangladesh, perhaps Bangladesh could have defeated South Africa. Bangladesh lost by just 4 runs.

South Africa team is not in good form. But I would say this team is very lucky. South Africa did not play well against Netherlands. However, South Africa won the match. The performance of the South African players against Bangladesh was not as good as expected. Even then, the South African team won against Bangladesh by 4 runs.

Bangladesh batsmen's performance was bad as usual. Rabada and Nortje bowled very controlled in this match. Both took two wickets each. And gave 19 and 17 runs respectively. Keshav Mahraj took three wickets, but he gave 27 runs in 4 overs. But South Africa are unlikely to qualify for the finals unless they perform better.

Pakistan will play against Canada in today's only match. Canada is not a strong team. But the problem is that Pakistan is in a very bad form right now. Pakistan lost the first two matches against USA and India. The loss against the USA was completely unexpected. And so if Canada does not perform well against Pakistan, there is a possibility of defeat in this match as well.

The match will be held at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium. And the pitch is completely bowling friendly. Nassau County International Cricket Stadium stats and records are given below -

• Matches: 5
• Batting first won: 2
• Batting second won: 3
  
• Average first innings total: 103
  
• Highest Total: 137/7 by Canada vs Ireland
  
• Lowest Total: 77 All Out by Sri Lanka vs Pakistan
  
• Highest Successful Chase: 106/6 in 18.5 overs by Pakistan vs Netherlands
  
• Lowest Total Defended: 119 by India vs Pakistan

So if Canada can score 120 runs on this pitch by batting first, Canada has a chance to win. The match itself is unlikely to be an easy victory for Pakistan.

While everyone was discussing and debating about the Pakistan Vs India match and now the Bangladesh Vs South Africa match, did anyone check Scotland? In Group B these guys are at the top with 5 points and will probably qualify for the Super 8. I have not seen any of their matches but I feel they are doing everything right to get those points.

Returning to Bangladesh Vs South Africa, the Africans could defend the lowest total ever in any T20WC. Keshav Maharaj will be known in history to be the first spinner who came in the last over and could defend his team against this small target. I feel sad for Mahmudullah as he tried his level best to get into a position where Bangladesh could have won chasing the lowest total.
 

South Africa won this  21 match by 113 runs and this target was easy to chase but South Africa did not lose hope and performed excellent in bowl and win game. The 21st match between South Africa and Bangladesh was played on  Nassau country international cricket stadium. Bangladesh showed good performance in previous game to Sri Lanka but this time they lost and chased only 109 runs. First in this match, South Africa won the toss and South Africa choose batting first. South Africa is a top match  team with a great track record. They should excellent teamwork and skill on the field. From my side and very sorry Bangladesh team did not won this time .  hope Bangladesh will play in the next match. Their recent performance have been outstanding and they continue to play exceptionally well in every match. South Africa playing amazing man team was by Heinrich Klaasen. The best batting performance in the South Africa man team was by Heinrich Klaasen scored 46 runs and 44 balls hitting 2 fours and 3 sixs.  tanzid Hassan  and other top Batsman was not display great performance and he scored 9 runs and 9 balls hitting 2 fours and 0 sixs. I hope this South Africa man team they will continue to play like this in the future. Congratulations to South Africa for their upcoming matches.

Well, only looking at the points table, you may say that the South African team is very strong among all the teams in the "Group D" as they have won all the three matches they played and have the highest 6 points.

Here is the complete points table for that group.

https://i.ibb.co/v1MpBYg/GroupD.jpg

However, the way they won the last match against Bangladesh was just good luck and nothing else. They need to focus on their performance if they really want to go in the later stages of the tournament. Also there is a lot of negativity of this South African win on social media.

The Bangladesh-SA thriller that you think you saw, but TV didn't fully show (https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/icc-men-s-t20-world-cup-2024-the-bangladesh-south-africa-thriller-that-tv-didn-t-show-you-1438015)

You are right that it was their luck that South Africa won the match against Bangladesh. I saw in the match the umpire gave several controversial decisions (probably wrong decisions). All decisions were in favor of South Africa. This is why we say South Africa is very lucky. South Africa also won against Netherlands. But their performance was not as good as expected. But there is no doubt that South Africa will qualify for the next round.

I will be happy if Bangladesh can qualify for the next round. Because Bangladesh has performed well in both matches. I say this because I had no expectations from this team. We are seeing very poor performance of Bangladesh in the few series before the World Cup. However, Bangladesh has performed better than I expected in both the World Cup matches.

Yes if Canada team made some more good effort in bat lineup and scored 120 or some more like 120 to 130 runs then Canada team will easily win this game. But Canada team team made only 103 runs target in 20 overs by losing 7 wickets. Pakistan team also played very slow lineup I expected that Pakistan team chased down all target in 13 to 15 overs but Pakistan won this game by 15 balls and 7 wickets. M Amir bowled very brilliantly and bowled out 2 wickets in 4 overs with 13 runs. H.Rauf also took down 2 wickets in 4 overs with 26 runs. BUt M Amir got a player of game award because he gave low runs to Canada team and also dismissed 2 wickets. M.Rizwan batted very good and he hitted two 4s and one 6s in 53 balls and scored 53 runs.  B.Azam was dismissed but he made total 33 runs in 33 balls with hitting one 4s and one 6s.

Congratulations Pakistan team to win this game

We have seen that in the match between Canada and Pakistan, in the first innings when the Canada team was doing batting and the Pakistan team was doing bowling, so on that time, I have noticed that in the Pakistan bowling, every player who did very poor bowling in his first over then at the second over, he improved himself as there are two examples of Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah.
However, you can say that Amir is the example of this too, because these all three bowlers first had too many scores then later they were all played very amazingly. Haris Rauf's condition was also like this. In short, the all-pacers have done poor bowling in his first over.  :o

https://i.ibb.co/FhrqgMj/Bowling.jpg

Overall the bowling from Pakistan was satisfactory and up to the mark in this match. Everyone of them had wickets in this match except Imad Wasim.

Pakistan won by a big margin against Canada but their win was not enough to qualify for the next round. USA is already second in the points table with four points and USA has one match left against Ireland. If for some reason the USA can win that match then Pakistan will be out by no matter how big the margin is in the next match. And if the equation is such that Pakistan wins against Ireland in the last match while USA loses against Island but not by a big margin there will be a chance for USA to qualify for the next round. The bottom line is that Pakistan lost the match against USA and they made this tournament very difficult for them.

Australia vs Namibia
Today, Australia and Namibia met in the 24th match of the World Cup. Namibia batted first and were all out for 72 runs. Adam Zampa bowled well, taking 4 wickets for 12 runs in 4 overs. Namibia's target of 73 runs was not enough. Australia easily chased down the target in 5.4 overs. Australia won three out of three matches to qualify for the next round. Namibia and Oman are eliminated from Group B. A team between England and Scotland will qualify, but Scotland is more likely to qualify.

Sri Lanka Vs Nepal Match Abandoned Today Both teams shared the points. And with not getting full points in this match as well, there is no chance for the Sri Lankan team to qualify for the next round. The Sri Lankan team has not won a single match out of 3 matches. The team's achievement in three matches is only 1 point. Sri Lanka have no chance of qualifying for the next round despite a win against the Netherlands in the last match.

Netherlands and Bangladesh have the biggest chances to occupy the second place in the points table. So I am looking forward to watch the upcoming match of Bangladesh vs Netherlands. The match is going to be held at Kingstown Stadium tomorrow. Bowling friendly pitch as usual. If the Bangladeshi batsmen can perform with some responsibility then the Bangladesh team can hold the second place in the table.

Bangladesh's performance is very erratic. The performance of this team cannot be trusted. In particular, although the performance of Bangladeshi bowlers is good, the performance of Bangladeshi batsmen is not good. And this is why the Bangladesh team lost against South Africa by just 4 runs.

Bangladesh will play the next two matches against Netherlands and Nepal. And the match against Netherlands is very important for Bangladesh. And this match should be won by Bangladesh. But there is no room to think that the Netherlands team is too weak. Netherlands team won easily against Nepal. And the Netherlands fought hard against South Africa. So there is no surprise even if Bangladesh lost this match.

Congratulations team Australia for qualifying in super eight outstanding performance by Team Australia in this tournament won 3 out of 3 matches till now. From group B Namibia and Oman were eliminated  Namibia made only 72 runs and excellent bowling by Australian bowler Adam Zampa took 4 wickets and became the first Australian bowler to get the 100th T20 wicket. Australia chased the target only in the powerplay with one wicket lost Australia is the only team who was playing fastest as compared to other teams in this World Cup Australia will play the next match against Scotland if Scotland team wins they will be in the Super Eight and defending champions England will be eliminated.

Pakistan batsmen have won but not by a big margin as the target was only 106 and 15 balls before the target was achieve not a big margin.  Their batsmen were given an easy target while against India they had a target of 119 which they could not complete.  And Ireland team will win this match because their performance is better than USA.  But at this time we can only predict the result will be known only after the game.  If a team like Ireland comes up against Pakistan Pakistan will lose the match.  Pakistan chances of qualify are very low because if Ireland wins the match it is difficult for Pakistan to win the next match.Yes Pakistan could have easily qualified but after losing matches to USA and India, they have put themselves in a tough game.  Even now, they have to work hard and struggle.

The Australian team continues to prove their worth time and again as we saw them end the tournament on a grand note in the ODI World Cup. They have started the T20 World Cup very well this time. Many cricket analysts feel that Australia may have a lot of chances this time. Australia have played three matches so far out of which they have won all three matches. They faced their arch-rivals England in their second match in what was a high voltage match. Still Australia beat England by 39 runs in that match which was their second win.

In the match between Australia and Namibia, we saw that Adam Zampa made the Namibian cricket team's batsmen go crazy with his whirlwind magic of spin. Adam Zampa bowled four overs in this match and took four wickets for just 12 runs. Adam Zampa was named Man of the Match when Australia beat England and Adam Zampa was Man of the Match when Australia faced Namibia. Overall, Adam Jumper has started this World Cup brilliantly, he is constantly giving his great bowling performance.

This match victory was so simple and with also no much hardworking job for Australia sqaud against Namibia sqaud. This match was took place among Group B sqauds and this was the second last match of this competition before main clashes begin. Today Australia squad against Namibia squad match, Namibia sqaud has begun this match first with bat Inning by inviting of Australia squad. We seemed very big difference in previous matches Australia squad top class squad in whole world and Namibia is a weak and low class sqaud in front of Australia sqaud but their hard working in previous competition was great and to qualify in current competition but Namibia sqaud need more practice and hardworking and hope next world cup we see the name of Namibia in list of 8 Sqauds Round. 72 scores was not very challenging and very difficult job to achieve and Australia sqaud has easily achieved this defeating target of total 72 scores and got a victory. Just one wicket lost of David Warner at 20 scores his performance was also impressive. Remaining scores were completed by next two batters Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head.

I have a feeling that the match would have been more interesting, had Australia batted first. The pitch was very supportive of bowlers. And Namibia had experienced bowlers such as Ruben Trumpelmann, David Wiese and Bernard Scholtz in their playing XI. On top of that they had promising youngsters such as Jack Brassell and Ben Shikongo. But then the target was too low for the bowlers to play any part, especially against one of the strongest batting lineups in the world. 

Australia is a very very strong team out of all team who play this tournament with excellent team work and skill on field. From my  side and very sorry for Namibia team to lose. The recent performance for Australia have been outstanding and they continue to play exceptionally well in every match. Australia playing amazing man team was by Adam zampa and player of match title credit to this player. Adam zampa is a very talented man and with  great experience. Australia won this match by 9 wickets and 86 balls from Namibia team . The 24th match between Australia and Namibia man team played at the sir Vivian Richards cricket stadium. Form battimg side, Namibia team made only 72 runs in full inning of 20 overs and lose. Australia won the toss first and elected to batting first. Which led to Australia man winning the match. The normal performance Australia man team was by Travis head  scored 34 runs and 17 balls hitting 5 four and 2 sixs.

I am looking forward to tomorrow's match between West Indies vs New Zealand. If New Zealand wants to qualify for the next round, they need to beat the West Indies at any cost and get full points. Because the New Zealand team lost the first match against Afghanistan by a big margin of 84 runs. The New Zealand team managed to collect only 75 runs. So the New Zealand team will have to win the next three matches by a big margin.

The West Indies team is in pretty good shape I would say. However, the West Indies team has not yet faced a strong opponent. West Indies team won two matches easily against Uganda and Papua New Guinea. Now Afghanistan and West Indies from Group C will qualify for the next round if they defeat the New Zealand team. It is a do or die match for New Zealand.

Afghanistan's qualification is very easy as they have two matches left, one against West Indies and another against Papua New Guinea.  If the equation with West Indies is difficult but the equation of Afghanistan with Papua New Guinea is much easier.
West Indies have two matches, one against New Zealand and the other against Afghanistan.  If West Indies can beat New Zealand in today's match then they will qualify without any tie.  So today's match is definitely a very important match between New Zealand and West Indies.
However, New Zealand's first match was so bad that the loss of that match had a huge impact on the subsequent matches and their net run rate dropped a lot due to which they are at the lowest position in the points table.  New Zealand's chances of qualifying for the Super Eight are very slim.

The point is that Pakistan players knew that they had to score few runs to have a victory, a little over 100 runs, so they needed to play fast in order to increase their run rate. Even if they loses wickets, it would not have matter. But Pakistan not only chased the target at a low rate but also they lost wickets.  ::)

Fakhar Zaman had to finish the match but he could not do it and when he tried a long shot to finish then we all have seen what happen. He was out by Gordn who does not much pace in his ball the Fakhar Zaman take a stance as he played to spinners and tried to hit a six but he moved bat early and lost his wicket while also it could go to the four but the bat position was not well as it should. After this bad shot selection, he lost his wicket and returned to the dressing room.
This time Fakhar Zaman has not played well.

 

In this World Cup we are seeing that Fakhar Zaman is not in form and lost his wicket early in the last three matches against USA, India and also against Canada (who is a small team) he cannot play well.

He cannot play as a key player, but also he performed when nobody hoped, I think you all have understood what match I am referring to. Against New Zealand in the World Cup, when Pakistan have to chase 401 runs and Abdullah Shafique out early then he came and hitting too many sixes that have no comparison. He made won 126 runs in that match and won the game for Pakistan.
New Zealand vs Pakistan, 35th Match at Bengaluru, World Cup 2023 (https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/icc-cricket-world-cup-2023-24-1367856/new-zealand-vs-pakistan-35th-match-1384426/full-scorecard) However, that was the 2023 World Cup story, and this time we have seen nothing like this or may not be seen in future too.

The existing list of point tables is so much decent. There we can see the top 4 teams belong on the top of their own group's top team. The top-scoring teams are named India from Group A, Australia from Group B, West Indies from Group C, and South Africa from Group d. Yes, the mentioned all of the team are so much stronger.  It's my prediction to watch the performance of mentioned. India and Australia will play the final game. You can see it from the point table.

The result of the West Indies versus New Zealand match has surprised me, to be honest. First of all, I thought New Zealand should have done much better to finish off West Indies. There was no way anyone actually thought that West Indies was going to reach 149 after they had lost the ninth week at 112. and even the way they started, it was really horrible. The whole West Indies innings was a one-man show. Rutherford was the only one playing like the pitch was batting-friendly.

New Zealand also did not start very well. But the start was definitely better compared to West Indies. The problem is, New Zealand was losing wickets at regular intervals. And even though Santner tried to score quickly, he did not have enough support around him later in the innings. In the end big win for West Indies

It was a do or die match for New Zealand. As the New Zealand team lost by a big margin against Afghanistan. So to qualify for the next round, it was absolutely necessary to beat the West Indies. But the New Zealand team could not win against the West Indies. The performance of both the bowlers and batsmen was poor. West Indies managed to set a target of 150 runs despite the bowling friendly pitch. And after giving West Indies a target of 150, I was sure that New Zealand would lose this match. The West Indies batsman collected 37 runs in the last two overs. Sherfane Rutherford was unbeaten on 68 off just 39 balls.

Apart from Glenn Phillips, no other New Zealand batsman could bat well. Glenn Phillips scored 40 runs. Besides, Sartner was unbeaten with 21 runs from 12 balls. New Zealand's batsmen have batted very slowly since the beginning of the innings. This is why the New Zealand team lost.

Afghanistan and West Indies teams are sure to qualify for the next round. We did not think that a renowned team like New Zealand would be eliminated in the first round. Our expectations were higher from the New Zealand players. But the team performed very badly in the first two matches.

New Zealand lost the first match against Afghanistan by a huge margin of 84 runs. And in the second match against West Indies, New Zealand lost by 13 runs. Almost all New Zealand players performed poorly in both the matches. We don't know why a team like New Zealand has suddenly deteriorated like this. However, the West Indies won all three of their matches. And Afghanistan won both out of 2 matches. So both these teams are going to qualify for the next round.

Today we are surprised to see the results of each team's game, strong teams win with normal teams very hard. In today's match as well, the game we saw West Indies vs New Zealand was truly amazing, both teams played well but scored very low in terms of runs. West Indies gave a target of 149 runs to New Zealand, but they could not achieve this target, instead they collected 136 runs and ended the game. However, the New Zealand team did not do very well in the beginning, their bones from the beginning did not allow them to win. The New Zealand team has not won a match so far, so we can confirm this season that they might be eliminated from the bus stage. The West Indies team has done well from the start which may lead to them going into the next phase with good form and West Indies have potential. Since West Indies won against New Zealand in today's match, it is expected that West Indies will try to play better in future matches.

If we discuss from the cricketing knowledge, then South Africa and Bangladesh will qualify in the next round, but in the game of cricket, especially in T20 cricket, many times it is not possible to play with prediction. A game of just 120 balls, here a bowler can turn a team's entire momentum around, just as a good batsman can defeat a big team. Considering the past statistics or strength aspect we will say that Bangladesh is favorite against Nepal and Netherlands. If Bangladesh can play their normal game then they will surely win against these two teams. The way Bangladesh competed against South Africa undoubtedly raised expectations in the minds of the fans. However, if some mistakes and inefficiency of not being able to finish are going to be regular then maybe Bangladesh will not be able to advance far in this tournament.

There are 4 teams that I am sure will be part of the Super 8. They are Australia West Indies, India and South Africa. The next 4 teams as per my logic & understanding will be the US, Scotland, Bangladesh and Afghanistan. There will be two debutant teams this time for sure and two can be established teams.

Both the USA and Scotland are looking good. Due to inexperience they will get defeated in the Super 8. Getting defeated doesn't matter as these two will get good experience playing against the best. As in the past Ireland and Afghanistan did when they got a place to play against the big teams in an ICC event.

To be honest I was really shocked after results because I wasn't expecting NewZeland to such too bad. But just like I really mentioned before the world cup that few of under rated team will give us surprising results and west indies was one of them and here is the results. Anyway I think after a long long NewZeland will play qualifier round for upcoming 2025 and may be paksitan follow his step to play qualifier and then those two will be the one who will come out from that stage. West Indies were really in trouble especially at early stages of and It was look like they will lose brutally but the way Rutherford revive his team and player spectacularly were just awesome and then while chase just like previous matches they got exposed and lose the important match and end his journey of the world cup

In today's Bangladesh vs Netherlands match, Bangladesh is performing fairly well today. But unfortunately Towhid Hridoy's heart has just gone out. However, in today's match, Tanzid Hasan and Shakib Al Hasan did a very good first. Shakib Al Hasan is not out yet. Tanzid Hasan scored 35run off 25 balls where he hitting five 4s and a 6. And Shakib Al Hasan scored 43 runs off 30 balls where he hit a total of seven 4s. Bangladesh team has managed to collect 95 runs in 13 overs so far. I hope that in total twenty overs they will be able to collect more than 150 runs, Today, if the Bangladesh team can perform well in bowling as well as batting, then the Bangladesh team is likely to win today.

https://i.ibb.co/jfZV06W/scrnli-6-13-2024-10-32-08-PM.png

Bangladesh team is stronger and experienced compared to Netherlands. And Bangladesh team is considered as favorite in this match. However, this team of Netherlands performed well against South Africa. Especially the Netherlands bowlers played very well against South Africa. However, in today's match against Bangladesh, the Netherlands bowlers could not do well. Bangladesh set a huge target of 160 runs today.

Bangladeshi opener Tanzid batted responsibly today. But as usual Shanto and Liton das batted badly today. Both managed to add just 1 run to the scoreboard. But Sakib batted well today. Sakib played an excellent innings of 64 runs from 46 balls. Jahrao M, Ahmadullah's 25 and Tanzid's 35 innings were very important. After giving a target of 160, the chances of Bangladesh winning are high.

As the Bangladeshi bowlers were able to perform well against South Africa, if the bowlers are able to perform the same in today's match, then Bangladesh's victory is sure. South Africa's experienced batsmen were not able to bat well against Bangladesh. Bangladeshi bowlers are in good form now.

A target of 160 runs is big enough for this pitch. But the Netherlands batsmen are batting very carefully today. Netherlands did not lose a single wicket in 4 overs. And managed to collect 22 runs. Michael Levitt scored 18 runs off 14 balls. And Max O'Dowd's collection of 4 runs from 10 balls.

https://i.ibb.co/k9dNMTn/scrnli-6-13-2024-11-22-16-PM.png


This match will be competitive. The pitch is not completely bowling friendly. Bangladeshi batsmen have got enough advantage on this pitch. Batting of Netherlands batsmen is also good enough on this pitch. Vikramajit Singh batted well. Had the pair of Vikramajit and Engelbrecht gone longer, the match would have been completely under the control of the Netherlands. However, Mahmudullah just picked up the wicket of Vikramajit. Netherlands lost 3 wickets in 10 overs. However, the run rate of the Netherlands is decent. Netherlands team collected 74 runs in 10 overs. Bangladesh will win only if the Bangladeshi bowlers can bowl in a controlled manner in the next 5 overs.

Shakib is batting well today but not bowling well. He gave away 19 runs in 2 overs. RIshad gave 14 runs in 1 over. Bangladesh captain has to be more conscious in the selection of bowlers today. If not, Bangladesh is likely to be defeated.

It looks like Shakib Al Hasan finally has been able to find some kind of form with the bat. he was the one that played throughout the whole inning almost. He has scored 64 from 46 balls and stayed not out. That has given the foundation for Bangladesh to reach 159. but with the ball, he has not been good so far. Given away 19 Runs from his two overs.

Right now the Netherlands are actually in a good position and from this position there is a very good chance for them to win this match honestly. Right now they need 72 from 48 balls. with seven wickets in hand, that is very much achievable.

Bangladesh gave the target of 160 runs to Netherlands excellent batting by shakib al Hasan he played unbeaten innings of 64 runs. Netherlands team is on the way to chase the target they made 74 runs in ten overs and need 86 runs in last 10 overs this is do or die match for both teams the team will won gets 2nd position in Group D with our points if Netherlands failed to chase the target then it will be very difficult for them to qualify for next round because their next match against Sri Lanka that is not easy for them to beat sri lanka. Netherlands batsmen to save their wickets to win this game Bangladesh bowlers should need to do dot balls to put pressure on the Netherlands.

In the end Bangladesh won the match by 25 runs. The pitch is bowling friendly in every match of this World Cup. It is very difficult for batsmen to bat well on these pitches. Moreover, in all the three matches of the World Cup, we have seen good bowling from the Bangladeshi bowlers. Mustafiz and Taskin in particular are in very good form. In today's match, Mustafiz conceded only 12 runs in 4 overs and took one wicket. Taskin picked up two wickets. But Rishad Hossain took the most important three wickets.

Sybrand Engelbrecht, Vikramajit Singh and Scott Edwards batted well. If the innings of these three batsmen were prolonged, it would have been very difficult for Bangladesh to win the match. Mahmudullah picked up Vikramajit's wicket at a crucial moment. Due to this, the batting of the Netherlands became slow again.

Hi guys, take a look at Group B. Things look very interesting. Scotland has 5 points with one match remaining (vs Australia), while England has only 1 point from 2 matches. England will take on Oman in around 30 minutes from now, and they have another match against Namibia remaining. Now the tricky part is that Scotland has a net run rate of +2.164, while for England the same is -1.800. Will it be possible for England to close the gap with only a few matches remaining? If not, they will be kicked out of the world cup.

We all know England bats deep and play aggressively. Their last 2 matches are against associate nations.

So i believe they can take care of NRR easily, given that they repeat what the Aussies did against Nambia when bowling first or following the footsteps of Afghanistan (Afg vs UGA) when batting first.

Yes, Bangladesh team against won game and their rank with this win is now 2 nd with 2 win and 1 loss and their chance is very high to qualify for Super Eight other team in this group performed very poor in games and lose many games like Sri Lanka team. S.Hasan showed very important effort in game by scoring highest runs from Bangladesh and support their team to win this game. S.Hasan hitted total nine 4s and total made 64 runs without lose wicket in 46 balls. Bangladesh team made 159 runs target in 20 overs and Netherlands was not much strong team. But Netherlands team tried very hard to win this game and chased down all target which was made by Bangladesh team but they failed and lost this game by 25 runs. S. Engelbrecht performed great and good then other batsman and total made 33 runs in 20 balls and hitted three 4s and one 6s. But all his effort was not beneficial and lost Netherlands this game.

Pakistani team can qualify for super 8 if it won the match against Ireland team . But luck matters a lot in next match of Pakistan team because if rain interrupted in the match Pakistan will be out of super 8.

England team will qualify in super 8 in comparison of Scotland team . But in that situation luck also matters a lot and your statement could be true but no one can say about super 8 teams . England and Pakistani team should qualify for super 8 because these team will make the tournament interesting. England team has monster players and they can chase any big score and they can also all team out at very low score because they have top class  bowlers. India and Australia are favorite in this World cup.

What can I say about West indies their previous series was Laos amazing with good strength and their brilliant team performance in all innings. In this tournament of ICC Men T20 World cup, West indies team has won every match and this thing proved that West indies is a great team with amazing players.. Now they have also played this match very well. I feel bad for New Zealand team to lose this game as well past game, I hope they will play better new Zealand in the next match. West indies team recent performance have been outstanding and they continue to play exceptionally well in every match. West Indies won gam  with 13 runs with amazing target which was set for New Zealand team 149 runs.New Zealand team only chased 136 runs and overs finished and lost game. The best batting performance in west indies man team was displayed by sherfane Rutherford, he scored 68 runs and 39 balls hitting 2 fours and 6 six. Congratulations to West Indies for their upcoming matches and for this super amazing win.

There was no option for Bangladesh to win against Netherlands and Bangladesh managed to get that win against Netherlands. Shakib Al Hasan has shown great performance in batting and bowling. You may say Shakib Al Hasan bowled 4 overs but he didn't get any wicket here I will tell you how he bowled the last two overs with all his experience even though he didn't get a wicket it is undoubtedly admirable. Bangladesh made bowling changes at crucial moments and they got the break through and this is where Bangladesh turned the match. Basically Rishad Hossain's 2 wickets in one over is where Bangladesh came back against Netherlands. Now the next round of Bangladesh is almost certain. If Bangladesh qualifies in the next round, Bangladesh will face Afghanistan

Srilanka are now out of the World Cup. What is happening with this team? They have been struggling for quite sometime now in any format. Bangladesh will be able to make through after they won against Netherlands. Today's game between Ireland and the USA will decide the fate of Pakistan. If the USA wins by a good margin and maintains a good NRR then it will become difficult for Pakistan in the World Cup.

Not only Sri Lanka, I was most surprised to see New Zealand's performance in this World Cup. However, Sri Lanka had played quite well in the previous few series of the World Cup. So we expected South Africa and Sri Lanka from Group D to qualify for the next round. But the Sri Lankan team could not win even one of the three matches. Sri Lanka may lose against Netherlands in the last match.

But I don't understand why the New Zealand team has such a bad fate. New Zealand are at the bottom of the table after losing two matches. Lost against Afghanistan by 84 runs and lost against West Indies by 13 runs. New Zealand have no chance of qualifying for the next round.

Bangladesh was able to win against the Netherlands pretty easily in the end. At one point it looked like Bangladesh was actually going to lose the match. Especially when Vikram was playing really well for the Netherlands. But it was actually good captaincy from Shanto to bring in Mahmudullah in the attack. He was able to get that crucial wicket. That was the turning point of the match in my opinion. Even though Shanto is not a good performer, he is a decent captain in my opinion. But there is no doubt that he still has to perform. Just look at the way he lost his wicket in this match as well. It was completely unnecessary.

Anyway, in the end, it was good bowling from Mustafiz and Rishad to make sure that Bangladesh won the match by 25 runs. Now Bangladesh will feel like they have a great chance to get into the Super Eight. Something nobody actually expected from Bangladesh to be honest.

You will be surprised after a few days as to how many big cricket teams will now be going back. The problem is the pitch and none of the boards were expecting such a wicket. That can be one of the reasons. There may be another reason which can be adaptability to the conditions and playing according to it. Then we know a lot of big teams have been showing us the future as they have not been able to get new talents. They are still using those old players who have become tired after playing in different leagues throughout these years. We as spectators can only watch and comment as we are not in the the ground.

Sri Lanka has consistently underperformed in several World Cups. In this year's World Cup too, Sri Lanka performed the same way and got eliminated from the group stage of the World Cup. New Zealand has similarly been knocked out of the group stage with a poor performance in this year's World Cup. Both these teams had the chance to go to the Super Eight but both teams were eliminated from the group stage after losing their first two matches. But Bangladesh and Pakistan have chances so far especially Bangladesh has one more match and opponent Nepal is a weak team so I see 100% chances of Bangladesh. But Pakistan has to win against Ireland on the other hand Ireland has to win against USA. Then Pakistan can qualify for Super Eight due to net run rate.

Ireland vs USA match will be play today USA team has better quality player their rhythm was good because they won 2 matches in a row but Ireland team had lost their two out of two matches this match is very important for both teams because if USA team won today then they will qualify for next round of super eight now USA has 4 points after winning this match both Pakistan and Ireland will be eliminated. Today Pakistan is in favour of the Irish team like the 2022 world cup match between the Netherlands and south Africa when the Netherlands won and Pakistan had a chance to qualify for the semi final after playing with Bangladesh. the only scenario for Pakistan to go to the Super 8 is Ireland beating the USA and Pakistan winning against Ireland. today match there was a huge chance of rain if rain disturbed today's game and no result was finalized then both teams got 1. 1 points and the USA team with 5 points qualified for Super 8.

Ireland Vs United States

Today's match is not very important for Ireland but it is very important for United States because if United States win today's match then they will qualify Super8 without any calculation. But if they lose, Pakistan will have a chance of qualifying. So today all Pakistan fans will support Ireland especially Ireland must win today's match if Pakistan has to qualify.
Ireland has not won any match till now USA has won two out of three matches where their point table is four points whereas if they win one out of three matches then Pakistan will get two points but Pakistan is far ahead in net run rate so maybe if Ireland win today's match Pakistan's chances of qualifying will increase.

Cricket is having few serious changes specially this short format as we are having few countries which are doing amazing stuff and giving good entertainment in this big mega event like Afghanistan is having 3 wins from 3 games and now having spot into super 8 with Bangladesh and USA are also having good chance of going into super 8, and we are losing few top teams with two former world champions Pakistan and Sri Lanka and New Zealand which is having one of the best squad in past now struggling badly specially their lost against West Indies is big setback because they were doing good and having good chance of win.

I am really feeling good as now we are having 20 teams and things are taking good changes with new members are capable of winning matches and having spots into top ranks which will bring better change and more entertainment for the cricket fans.

Today’s match is very important match for the Pakistan team too. I know today is not the match of Pakistan but still it is very important for them just because if Ireland wins this match then just the Pakistan team have to win against Ireland then nobody can stop Pakistan to qualify in Super 8s and also until this time all the things are good for Pakistan. As when they need help of India then Rohit Sharma we will help for them (Pakistan) and today we need Ireland to help them and beat the United States of America. Ireland captain told that "I am playing PSL from the last 5 years and their people gave me a lot of love so today  will try to help them and win this match".

However, a big problem for Pakistan in this match is the rain. If rain wash out this match, the both the teams will get one point each and Pakistan will be rule out of this World Cup.

https://i.ibb.co/2FRgvr4/rain.jpg

USA Fun ....Rain Rain comes again..
Pakistani Supporters: Allah please Stop the Rain..
Pakistan is waiting for the sunshine in today's match when the sunshine will create a suitable playing environment on the field.
US supporters on the other hand are praying to God for the rain not to stop.  If the rain doesn't stop then the dream of Pakistan will stop and if the rain stops the dream of Pakistan will come alive.

Of course, a lot will depend on today's match for Pakistan. However, if today's match is declared abandoned due to rain, it will cause a lot of loss for Pakistan. And if the match against Ireland is held, then there is a possibility that Pakistan team will qualify later.
However, in today's match, Team USA will wish for the rain to stop, while Team Pakistan, on the other hand, will pray to God for the start of the game.

Well, I was thinking that why they got into such a situation where they are dependent on the weather to make them reach the next stages of the game. This means that the Pakistan team is not strong and even if they reach the Super 8s, they will face more tough teams in that competition stage.

---

Now, there is another inspection time has been out and if on that time, the match does not start then Pakistan has been clearly out of the World Cup and the USA which also means at the next T20 World Cup, USA already qualified for the World Cup and don’t have to play qualifiers rounds.
By the way, this World Cup has been good for the United States of America because without playing the qualified rounds, they had been qualified into the game and directly went into the Super 8s. Now, I don’t think Pakistan will qualify for the Next World Cup too.

Bangladesh batsmen set a good target of 159.  And their batsmen gave a good perform in the match and their bowler also took interest in the match and bowled well and stop the runs and took wickets and won the match by a huge margin of 25 runs.  The Netherland team is now not showing good perform in the match and losing the match.  They should work hard and struggle in the match so that they win as many matches as possible.  Bangladesh are making good changes in the match and working hard in the match and they are going to win it.  They have also decided to improve the match and are winning the match.The performance of Netherlands was good in the earlier matches but now they don't play the match well, if they play then the match will be a good revolution.

Not only the fans or the players of these two countries Ireland or USA want this but Pakistan players and Pakistan fans want USA to play against Ireland today anyway. If the match is abandoned due to this rain, then there will be no need to see any more equations as Pakistan will be eliminated from the group stage before the last match is played. In the last World Cup, England and Pakistan played in the final, this World Cup tournament has become a situation where Pakistan and England both teams may be eliminated from the group stage. If these big teams are not in the tournament then the tournament will not be complete so I expect Pakistan to make it to the quarter finals.

You are right, Pakistan is no more in this World Cup. The match between Ireland and United States is abounded and it's good for United States fans because both teams give 1, 1 point that a positive decision for the United States. After getting 1 point they qualify for the Next Round of the World Cup. Unfortunately, Pakistan rolled out from this World Cup because India and the United States are qualified. If this match is played and Ireland scored a strong total on board then a good chance for Pakistan to stay alive in this tournament. I think Pakistan rolled out from the World Cup for its mistakes they lost 2 winning matches from the United States and India. Pakistan's team will need a lot of changes in their batting and bowling line.

Cricket is a game where anything will be held at a time. For that issue, Pakistani players with all their support want a sunny day to play a game, but USA teams want to draw the match. Amazingly, the USA vs Ireland match is already drawn. Pakistan already falls in a loss. It's bad luck for Pakistan. Only rain causes their losses.

Correct Cheema02 buddy, Pakistan sqaud is not more available in this world cup and their sqaud squad eliminated from Thai Super Eight Round matches and their squad have one match behind for play but sadly this match has no sense and also not profitable for Pakistan squad because Ireland against USA sqaud match was declared to finish without playing any delivery cause of bad weather and heavy rain. If this match is playing among both squads Ireland and USA sqaud then Pakistan have 50, 50 possibility for reaching on Super Eight matches if USA sqaud was  defeated by Ireland sqaud, their all matches were played and their sqaud have total 4 points and Pakistan have one match to play against Ireland with 2 points with good runs rate so if Pakistan squad will win this match and their sqaud also have 4 points but due to good and high runs rate their sqaud will qualify but sadly this was not happen. We will meet next in 2026 T20 World Cup but next time Pakistan team will need to make some major changes if they want to qualify for 2026 next World Cup.

Unfortunately weather show his colour and wash out the game and thus Match has been abundant even played a single ball and point has been shared 1:1 and now officially Ireland and paksitan has been eliminated from T20 World cup which is I think happening after a very long time in history of paksitan cricket team but this time several big names like NewZeland, paksitan, sirilanka, and may be England will be knocked out and will played qualifier round for upcoming T20 World 2025 which will be really tough because just two from them will take his slots so things will be spicy to watch. Anyway it's really proud moments for USA because for a first time they qualify for world cup due to edge of home ground and they did big by removing big names from his group and even qualify for super 8 let's see how long they will continue thier world cup journey.

I will not call it Pakistan's misfortune but as a result of their incompetence, they had to leave the World Cup at the beginning. Even if they get the chance, I don't expect anything good from them because with the performance they showed, it would have been difficult for them to win the match even if they competed well. I don't know how Pakistan can expect to win with such a weak team rather if they withdraw early then the good teams can take over the place. They should learn from the performance of this season and how they can do well, what should be changed in their team, when they return to the field with proper solutions, then it is possible to expect something good from this country.

A win for Ireland in today's match would have given Pakistan a slim chance of finishing second on the points table and qualifying for the next round. But as a result of the match being abandoned, the USA team managed to gain 1 point. As a result, Pakistan has no chance of occupying the second place in the table.

Pakistan team unexpectedly lost against USA. And because of the defeat, Pakistan's achievement in 3 matches is only 2 points. Pakistan team will be 1 point behind USA even if they win the last match. I would say USA was very lucky in this world cup. Also USA players are very hardworking. Hence, the team managed to occupy the second place in the table. This is a big achievement for the USA

I agree with you. There is no chance of saying that Pakistan was in awe. We also saw Pakistan's bad performance at the ODI World Cup. And after the ODI World Cup, the Pakistan team has done bad performances in almost every series.

We were sure that Pakistan could not win against India. However, Pakistan will be defeated against the USA, it was an unexpected result. Pakistan lost against the USA because of their bad bowling. Pakistan failed to win even after giving a big target of 5 runs. It was very difficult to collect 5 runs on this pitch. Experienced and important bowlers like Harris Rauf and Shaheen Shah Afridi did very badly against USA. This was the main reason for Pakistan's defeat.

Pakistan was defeated by their bad performance on this field. I also add with you for their batting performance. I wasn't happy with all of the player's batting performances. I didn't like their good performance. All of the players failed for only 120 runs collect to win. All Pakistani players are the same for bad performance. Yes, it's the main reason for their defection.

Nepal vs South Africa

An important match between South Africa vs Nepal has started. Nepal won the toss and elected to bowl. Even today South Africa batting line is not good. A team with a strong batting line like South Africa performed poorly against a small team like Nepal. Today South Africa collected 115 runs losing 7 wickets in the allotted overs. However, Nepal have been reduced to bat with a target of 116 runs and have so far collected 48 runs for the loss of 2 wickets in 10 overs. Nepal still need 68 runs to win. If Nepal can win the match today, then Nepal will have a chance to go to Super 8, if they lose, they will be out of the tournament. Let's see which team wins in the end.

It was a match that Nepal could have won, but they threw it away. With 8 wickets in hand, they needed 31 runs (and had plenty of overs to spare). But then Anil Sah got out and the new batsmen started playing in ultra-defensive mode. By the time lower order batsmen tried to lift up the run-rate, it was too late. A win for Nepal would have done them a lot of good. But now they only have themselves to blame. Anyway, one more match remains for Nepal, against they will face Bangladesh next Monday at Kingstown.

Pakistan was never known for its batting but it was known for its fast bowlers. They only had two batters, Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan and the whole team has been dependent on these two guys. I do not blame the team it is the selection committee that has to be blamed. They had a few players who could have been part of this team but the selectors ignored them. The harsh reality is that they are out of the tournament and now they need to think & focus on the Champions Trophy.

The South African team won the match brilliantly, but we know that the South African team is much stronger than Nepal. Nepal is not that strong of a team, but South Africa is already very strong, and they have great players both in bowling and batting. However, the game we saw in this match was a much more exciting battle between the two teams, with South Africa winning by just one run. Whereas the Nepal team almost succeeded in meeting the target set by South Africa but unfortunately fell short of wickets in the last ball of the over due to which Nepal lost. The target of 115 runs could easily have been won against South Africa, but the Nepalese team was too frustrated and under pressure after losing four wickets in the last two overs. Due to which the team lost by one run by 114 runs in the last minute, but Nepal team played well enough against South Africa.

Nepal should blame themselves. With around 4 runs per over needed to win, their batsmen failed to score even that much. Dipendra Singh Airee made 6 runs from 11 balls, while Kushal Malla made 1 from 3. Aasif Sheikh also wasted a lot of balls at this time. Only when Gulsan Jha and Sompal Kami came together at the crease they made any attempt to hit boundaries. Nepal needs to utilize these sort of opportunities. Because they face full member nations very rarely and there is no guarantee that they will qualify for the 2026 edition.

The sad but true fact is that South Africa is a very strong team indeed. That team lost to Nepal in the T20 World Cup, it can be thought. South Africa beat Nepal by just 1 run. It is sad for the team. But the last two overs brought real luck for the South African team. All I will say is that South Africa's fortunes do not side with South Africa.

No, you cannot say that it was the rain that ruled Pakistan out of the World Cup. Their overall bad performances in the World Cup and even before the World Cup led them to this loss of the World Cup dream. By the way, even we had no rain in the yesterday match, what was the grantee that the USA would have lost to Ireland?

For Instance, their team repeat the same mistakes again and again and does not learn from their mistakes. By The way, this time at the same style, Babar Azam lost his wicket in the Canada Match and at the same ground in New York as he was out against India which was also played at New York. The ball came on the offside and Babar Azam once again tried to hit the edge on that and that ball must go into the four but when there was no fielder at the slip side otherwise that was a complete four for sure but this time, he was out because there was a fielder on the off side. By the way, he played very well according to the pitch conditions only in that match with the lowest profile team such as Canada.

Washout in Florida takes USA through to Super Eight (https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/icc-men-s-t20-world-cup-2024-1411166/united-states-of-america-vs-ireland-30th-match-group-a-1415730/match-report)

I never thought before the T20WC-2024 started that Pakistan would be out of the tournament before playing the teams in the Super 8. I never expected them to lose their first match against a team which is debuting for the first time. When I saw them play with the USA and committing mistakes that should not have been made I felt at that time that they would not win against India. They lost a win-win game against India due to poor batting, which has become quite common in the Pakistani team.

The USA would have easily won against a weak team like Ireland even though the rain disrupted the game they got a position in the Super 8. After Sri Lanka, Pakistan is the second team from the subcontinent that is out of the tournament. I am still not sure whether Bangladesh has got a chance or if they are also on the verge of getting eliminated. Impressive cricket by Afghanistan as they have already secured a berth in the second stage, these guys have come a long way so fast.

Pakistan's team's performance in the bilateral series right before the World Cup was not promising. They lost against the New Zealand B team at home and England defeated them comfortably. Ireland also won a match against Pakistan, so they were unprepared for the big event and had major middle-order issues. Pakistan's defeat against the USA surprised the majority of the cricket fans.

This year's World Cup is surprising most of the spectators. New Zealand, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka are out of the tournament at the group stage and England is on the verge of elimination. Associate teams are performing exceptionally well and their future looks promising.

I don't know the issue with this Pakistan team as I am not following them frankly. What I feel that this team lacked the zill to play good cricket. I would blame the selectors and PCB, reason being when Babar Azam was removed from captaincy why he was again given that job before a major ICC tournament? This means that the selectors are not worthy to be selectors.

A sudden change in the captaincy makes a team weak. Another issue was why a retired bowler suddenly comes out of his retirement and is choosen to be part of the squad?

Either PCB is corrupted! Or they want Pakistan to suffer to satisfy another agenda. God only knows what is is happening behind those close doors.

Very difficult win for South Africa team in this match and South Africa team won game by only 1 runs. They should have  excellent teamwork and skill on the field. The recent performance for South Africa have been outstanding and they continue to play exceptionally well in every match and beat every time. South Africa playing this match with amazing effort. Tabriz shamshi is a very talented player and they also earned medal of Player of match yesterday game. He was also lucky South Africa that day. Hopefully they will continue to play like this in the future. I hope Nepal man they will play better in the future match and sorry to say their team disqualified. The performance of South Africa man team in the match was full strength and energy. The 31st match between South Africa and Nepal man team played at arnos vale ground. Nepal won the toss and South Africa won by 115 runs. Nepal caused only 114 runs and total target was set by South Africa sqaud was 115 runs. The best match performance South Africa man team was by reeza Hendricks scored 43 runs and 49 balls hitting 5 fours and 1 sixs. Congratulations to South Africa for their upcoming matches.

In fact, it has been especially raining that has worked in favor of the United States and has worked to propel them to the Super Eight. Tomorrow's match was abandoned and one point was shared and the USA's points became five points which, even if Pakistan's next match takes place and wins, Pakistan has no chance of qualifying, thus qualifying from Group-A as the second team with five points. Pakistan, New Zealand and Sri Lanka are unlucky in this world cup because their performance is not going well at all and due to this they have been eliminated from the group stage of this world cup. As the host country, the performance of the United States of America is very good, so they are a weak team, but due to their good performance, they have qualified for the Super Eight. Although they have a match against South Africa in the knock out phase. It's just a matter of seeing how the United States of America looks at South Africa in that match.

This game of World cup T20 series was concluded today and this game was played on Arnos Vale Ground. Nepal won the toss and they have good opportunity to take right decision and this game was ended very close and both teams worked very hard to win game but Nepal team lost this game by one runs only. South Africa team set 115 runs in 20 overs by losing 7 wickets and this target was very poor and effort of South Africa batsman was very low but their team bowlers made very excellent struggle and stopped them to chase their low target. T.Shamsi bowled total 4 overs he took down 4 wickets with 19 runs. Due to his amazing effort in bowling line, he got a player of game award. R.Hendricks was brilliant player and Batsman, he scored 43 runs in 49 balls and he hitted with five 4s and one 6s. T.Stubbs also played well and made 27 runs in 18 balls with two 4s and one 6s. Congratulations South Africa to add one more win in list and thier rank is top 1 with all wins and congratulations to qualify for Super Eight Round games.

For today's match also there is a good chance that washout may happen. This is going to be unfair for teams such as Pakistan. In case of washout, ideally the higher ranked team should be awarded 2 points, rather than both the teams sharing points equally. Had the match between USA and Ireland happened, then there was a good chance that Ireland could have won, and thereby Pakistan could have qualified for Super8. And first of all, it was a big mistake to stage the matches in Florida at this time of the year.

South Africa have won their last 2 matches by setting a low run target. South Africa scored 113 runs against Bangladesh, Bangladesh eventually scored 109 runs and Bangladesh lost by 4 runs. Today too, South Africa scored 115 against Nepal, which was not a good target. Nepal came close to winning but lost by just 1 run. Nepal eventually lost and were eliminated from the tournament. Had Nepal won today, they would have had a chance to qualify for the next round. South Africa qualified from Group D. One team from Group D will qualify for the next round, with either Bangladesh or the Netherlands qualifying for the next round. However, Bangladesh has a high chance of qualifying for the Super 8. Bangladesh will play next match against Nepal where Bangladesh will have chances to win.

I was worried, brother, but why!

The opponent of Bangladesh in the Super Eight will be, India, Australia, and Afghanistan.

We know the reality of what can happen with India and Australia but with the form Afghanistan is in, I don't know if we can even win a match in the second round.

I don't know what is on the forehead of the Bangladesh team, but in the end, only hope is Allah.

Seems like the rain and bad weather is winning and cricket is losing  :-\
Today the match between Canada and India is abandoned because of the rain. Now the match between England and Namibia is also delayed by rain too. I don't think that we will be able to see this match either at North Sound, as they are just taking time for inspections and as usual after few inspections, the game will be called off.

This is just formality as it is already clear that with rain, overcast conditions and too much wet outfield, the match is not possible.

https://i.ibb.co/pPY00zv/rain.jpg

Two matches were scheduled to be played today due to bad weather but neither match was played and the toss could not be given due to rain. We see many matches being delayed due to constant rain in this World Cup which is causing more difficulties for some teams due to which they have to withdraw. We saw yesterday that the Pakistan team had to withdraw from the qualifiers due to a match being delayed.

Today we also see the match between India and Canada delayed due to rain. Due to such weather constantly we are not able to observe the matches well and see which team will do well. However, if this match is delayed today, there will be no problem for India as India has already qualified for the qualifiers, but Canada has not, so the team has not qualified for the qualifiers.

Today's match between Namibia and England this match is very important for England, if they can play today's match properly and get a good win then they have a chance to qualify. And if today's match is delayed due to rain then definitely England team will not be able to reach the qualifiers rather they will not be qualified to play. Moreover, England's current position in the points table means they will not be able to enter the qualifiers, they do not have the points to enter the Super Eight.

It was very poor decision-making on behalf of the ICC, they could not analyse and account for the weather conditions. They should have rescheduled the matches elsewhere because of the state of emergency in Florida after rain. Not good news for English fans either as the rain started pouring down and we might be in for a long delay and the chances of washout can not be neglected. We might see two weak teams up against two strong teams in both Super 8 groups. We have our semi-finalist before the start of the Super 8 stage, until and unless there is an upset.  

We agree with the statement that rain is winning this game. After a long wait we can be sure that this match will not even start. The weather condition is not good and on the other hand it is raining incessantly. In this situation only rain can win. Where the audience has nothing to do but stare in amazement. There was a preconceived notion between the two teams that both the big teams would win and there was little chance of an accident. Those who bought today's tickets are already leaving the ground as they realize that the match is unlikely to happen.

If you look at the target, South Africa's performance is nowhere to be seen.  But talking about his bowling, he has performed well in it.  Their batsmen did not chase good runs in the match but their bowler came in at the end and stopped the runs with good bowling and won the match by 1 run.  And the South has great success.  And on the other hand, Nepal used to be a good team but now it will be weak.  Unfortunately for them, they will lose the match by 1 run.  Their batsmen also did not perform in the match yet.  If the speed is good, the target could be achieved.  Because the South African batsmen had given a target of only 115 which was very easy but could not be fulfilled by Nepal and they will lose the match.  Congratulations to South Africa on the win.Nepal should perform as before so that they can re-establish their name.  Emphasize your performance.

Most of the matches were abandoned due to rain especially India Vs Canada, Ireland Vs USA, England Vs Scotland, SL Vs Nepal, all these important matches were abandoned and the points were shared evenly, thus there were some favorite teams whose chances of qualifying for Super8 ended. Pakistan was particularly unfortunate as the match between Ireland and USA was abandoned and their farewell bell rang from the group stage of this year's World Cup. Just such a match is going to be faced especially today's match between Australia and Scotland if the match is abandoned due to rain then it will be England's bad luck and England will have to exit from the group stage. However, there is a high chance that the match will not be abandoned as there is no chance of rain in the weather forecast for now.

Now, England team won the match and match happened and fortunately match was ended due to DLS method. Yes, you are right ICC should take step for the teams which did not play the match and they are out of the tournament. If Pakistani team play match against Ireland,it could qualify for super 8 but rain interrupted and Pakistan is out of the tournament. The same thing could be for England team but England team luck was good and they played the match.

My question is if rain interrupted in the super 8 teams match, then what will be the next step of ICC, obviously match will be conducted to the next day .So ,why ICC chose the day if rain happens? I think Pakistani team could qualify easily and could make position in semi final.

I hate to be unfair to associate teams. But if it comes to rain interruption, then the higher ranked team should have been given full points. Look at the case with Pakistan. If the match between USA and Ireland had happened, then in all probability they could have entered the Super8 stage. And it has been a frustrating experience for the cricket fans as well. Yesterday, the match between England and Namibia was supposed to start by 10:30pm IST. It finally started by 1:30pm IST and that too for a truncated match.

England's sentence is very good due to which they have succeeded in qualifying for the Super Eight. Although we saw that the match was delayed for many times due to rain but later on the match was played and the England team won by a huge margin. But in today's match between Scotland and Australia, Scotland team scored great runs in this game but they unfortunately lost. Where Scotland scored 180 many thought Scotland would win today, England would not have made it to the Super Eight if Scotland had won. However, Australia team batted well in today's match but Scotland team did not have a good bowling line in this match due to which Australia won by five wickets. Australia and England from Group B have qualified for Super Eight, it is very interesting that both teams are strong enough.

It's good to see that England are able to qualify for the Super 8s and in the end it is only the Pakistan team (among the big teams) who fail to make it to the next stage. How sad it is for them.  :(

Pakistan's Captain and team management made a lot of mistakes that lead them to this situation. The player selection was also questionable. There was must for the Pakistan team, especially for the captain Bababr Azam must have to give overs to Shadab Khan because if we gave him overs early then he can understand about his condition or form anything would you like to say, but If we will not check it then I think it could be problem for the upcoming matches because it is not important that in all matches, Imad Wasim will perform. So in this case condition, they must have to bring him and check his form. Also, from the last match which was played against Canada, we have seen that he was just doing fielding in the whole match and nothing else.

The main problem of the three teams Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka is the erratic performance of the batsmen. The batsmen of these three teams are not batting stable. This is the reason why Sri Lanka and Pakistan teams could not qualify for the next round. Along with Pakistan's batsmen, the performance of their bowlers in this World Cup was also not good. The whole team has been very poor this season.

Pakistan and New Zealand were eliminated due to their poor performances. The performance of both teams was very poor. However, the Scotland team failed to qualify for the next round despite their excellent performance in this World Cup. This team was very unlucky.

I think you are forgetting about New Zealand and Sri Lanka. Both these teams were the favourites to qualify for the Super 8, but their journey ended early like Pakistan. 



I think Pakistan's selection committee should be answerable. They did not have any criteria for player selection. Pakistan's middle order hasn't clicked throughout the tournament. Babar should resign from the captaincy and focus on his batting. Shadab was out of form and he was played as a batsman. In pursuit of becoming an allrounder, the guy lost his bowling charm. Pakistan should search for solid middle-order batters. 

Scotland played really well and at one point the game was completely in their control. It was close game and seeing Australia struggling to get 180 runs was unexpected. England was supposed to get into the next stage. They are a good team in white ball cricket. Out of 8 teams 7 have already qualified, only one team is left. Both Bangladesh and the Netherlands are fighting for one spot. We will come to know who gets the final spot by tomorrow.

There is nothing to take away from Scotland's team despite the fact that they were unable to qualify for the Super 8s. The way they fought in this match was amazing and in the end, one team had to win and it was Australia, the top of the top teams. I think they will be very happy with the progress and journey in this World Cup. Even though they can't make it to the next round, it was a successful World Cup for them. We cannot say the same thing for Pakistan and New Zealand, their performances were under rated and not up to their standards. Both teams need to thinkg what went wrong with them.

Here Marcus Stoinis helped Australia to win this match (player of the match) and also England to reach the next round.  ;)

Stoinis breaks Scotland hearts, England through to Super Eight (https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/icc-men-s-t20-world-cup-2024-1411166/australia-vs-scotland-35th-match-group-b-1415735/match-report)

https://i.ibb.co/bHtPPTQ/Stonis.jpg

I completely agree with your points. The lack of transparency in Pakistan's selection process is concerning. The committee didn't have a clear strategy or criteria for player selection.

Babar Azam is undoubtedly a world-class batsman, but his captaincy has been questioned. He didn't focus on his own batting line and bowling line. He should care about his own career. Also, Pakistan needs to find strong middle-order batsmen like Mohammad Yousuf, Ajaj Ahamed, Enjamamul Haque, etc.

Australia today created a record in this tournament of losing 6 catches in a game. Poor fielding helped the Scots to get 180 runs on board. Australia batting was not up to the mark it is because of Stoinis that they were able to win otherwise we would have seen a another upset in this tournament. They are now in the next stage but if they field in such manner then they will be out from the next stage.

Yeah, AUS team chased the target with lose of 5 wickets trevis head and Marcus Stoinis played excellent innings they build the partnership of 80 runs which help team Australia to close a victory. Trevis head played 68 runs innings while Marcus Stoinis score 59 which created a important role to won this match Scotland team bowling well first 10 overs they conceded only 74 runs after that in next 10 overs Australian batsmen took charge on Scotland bowlers and the target was achieved. Scotland finished with 5 points at number three in standings while the England team due to high net run rate going into super eight Australia win help team English to qualify for the Super. After losing 1 match very badly England team won their next matches by big margin.

Head and Stoinis put up an 80-run partnership in today's match, and the two players in today's Australian team have been on the field for a long time. A good performance as a reliable batsman ensured victory as Scotland put New Zealand under pressure from the bowling side. Scotland team failed to win even with the target of 180 runs, Australia team's very good batting performance ensured victory in this match.

The match of England vs Namibia was very important for England to get qualified the Super 8. England gave a small target for Namibia from 10 overs. To chase the target Namibia lost 3 important wickets. But they didn't collect the targeted score within 10 overs. They just reached 84 runs from 10 overs losing 3 wickets. After losing this match Namibia gets out from this ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024. Congratulations to England for ensuring Super 8.

On the 17th June, Bangladesh is going to play against Nepal and Sri Lanka is going to play against Netherlands.the  most expected results are going to be Bangladesh winning against Nepal and Sri Lanka winning against the Netherlands. in that case Bangladesh is going to go through to the next round of the competition. Well actually if  Bangladesh is able to win, they are going to go through to the Super 8 anyway.

The only way Bangladesh is not going to go to the super eight is if Bangladesh lose the match against Nepal badly and the Netherlands win against Sri Lanka with a good run rate. because right now Bangladesh has a better run rate compared to the Netherlands. So I think the most probable outcome is Bangladesh going through to the next stage of the competition. but we have seen surprises happen in World Cup cricket.

If Bangladesh wins tomorrow's match then they will go directly to the next round and if the match is abandoned due to rain then Bangladesh will go to the next round. However, if Bangladesh is defeated by Nepal, on the other hand, if the Netherlands can beat Sri Lanka by a big margin, then the Netherlands will have a chance to go to the second round, but in this case, nothing is impossible except imagination. Bangladesh can definitely beat Nepal in tomorrow's match because although Bangladesh squad does not have good batting, Bangladesh squad definitely has good bowlers.

Pakistan team is doing a great performance today in the match of Ireland vs Pakistan, they are putting Ireland under a lot of pressure. Although the Pakistan team will win today's match but they will not be able to go to the Super Eight instead they will be eliminated before going to the qualifiers. Ireland team lost six wickets but they couldn't score the runs which Pakistan team scored today easily. Both Mohammad Amir and Shaheen Afridi are in excellent bowling form and the Ireland team is batting under a lot of pressure. However, we have seen earlier that the match against USA was not scheduled due to which the Pakistan team has to withdraw from the World Cup.Although in today's match, Pakistan team will win very easily against Ireland, but their only regret is that they are not selected in the qualifiers, but they will leave the T20 World Cup after playing today's match.

It's great news to see the performance of Pakistan. But it's not an effective time for them to go to the next round. This match wasn't easy for the Ireland team but the Pakistani players reached the target easily. We're impressed to see the bowling performance of Mohammad Amir and Shaheen Afridi. Both of their performance beat Ireland's batsmen under a lot of pressure. But it's the fate of Pakistani team to go next round.

Today's World Cup match between Pakistan and Ireland is just a regulation match for both the teams as two teams from this group are already confirmed to qualify for the next round. The group stage of T20 World Cup tournament is almost over and we will see the end of the group stage after a few more matches. It is quite certain to know which teams are qualifying for the next round, but some teams have officially qualified for the next round, while some teams have yet to officially qualify for the next round.  The matches played in USA did not get enough runs but the matches played in West Indies we saw enough runs and those matches were definitely enjoyed by the fans.

Many had expected that the two teams that will qualify from this group will be India and Pakistan. But the USA team came nowhere out of the syllabus and astonished everyone. Was the USA team better, or has Pakistan downgraded their playing abilities? It’s a long debatable question, I guess. Currently, the main tournament will start with the Super 8 event. Now the best of the best will battle for the semis and finals. I think Afghanistan have really played great cricket this season. All eyes on the Afghan team.

Pakistan team performed very poorly in the last ODI World Cup as well. Even after the World Cup, they could not improve their performance. Rather, we are seeing the deterioration of Pakistan's batsmen's performance day by day. And we can see the terrible deterioration of Pakistan's performance in T20 World Cup.

Pakistan team lost against a new team like USA. We were sure that Pakistan would lose against India. However, Pakistani bowlers bowled very well in this match. Pakistan could have beaten India if the batsmen had done it with some responsibility. And could have qualified for the next round. Despite winning against Ireland today, Pakistan lost 7 wickets to score just 107 runs. Like Pakistan, the New Zealand team is also eliminated in the first round. New Zealand's squad was strong enough. Even then, the team could not do well in this World Cup.

Finally, Scotland team lost last match to Australia team and total their team won 2 games and dream has come true for England as they qualify for Super 8 round with help from today Australia's victory. I say that Scotland team displayed commendable performance in match by scoring 180 runs and made a lot of word and put up a good fight with Australia but interesting fact is that Both England and Scotland have same points and but they were rolled out because of low run rate. Australia chased down big target  in last over best performance in australia team was displayed by Marcus Stoinis  and he is playing a crucial role to win hthis game and he  scored 59 runs off 29 ball. England qualified for Super 8 and their performance was brilliant and they deserved respect for their effort in tournament.

But we also have to agree with it that it was so tight match Although I never expected that a team like Australia would face so much difficulty in winning against Scotland. It's actually a disappointing performance from Australia even though they won this match especially their bowling performance was very bad for me that they set a target of 180 against a weak team like Scotland. However, Australia won the match in a pinch, so I am rooting for the Australian team to win the final in the T20 World Cup this time.

Both these squads already disqualified from this competition as well from Super Eight Round matches. But I am very disappointed the performance of Pakistan squad, this sqaud not play bad competition also previous competition in ODI. Ireland squad against Pakistan sqaud, Ireland sqaud has begun this match first with batting inning and Defeating target was set by Ireland squad was very bad and low scores which was so simple to achieve and beat any squad. Ireland sqaud has managed to collect 106 scores with lost of 9 batter wickets and this proved that Pakistan squad bowlers displayed very impressive performance with unbelievable skills. Due to low Defeating target, Pakistan's batters should have aimed to achieve this low target in least number of overs but Ireland squad put up a challenge. Pakistan squad emerged victorious by 3 batters and also 7 deliveries behind for bat.

Pakistan have been eliminated from this year's ICC Men's T20 World Cup mainly due to their poor performance, especially the loss with USA being considered as one of the main reasons for their elimination from this year's IPL. Pakistan's chances of elimination were largely compounded by a poor performance in the Super Over and the abandonment of the match between Ireland and USA due to rain. I can't say that Pakistan won today's match very well as they lost seven of their valuable wickets to collect 111 runs, so I would mainly consider Pakistan's poor performance as the main reason.

It is not easy to score 180 runs against Australia as Scotland have shown. Although they didn't win this match but if they could have scored more then they would have had a chance in this match. If Munsey could have raised the score a bit more and if Michael Jones could have been stable on the pitch then the match could have changed. Although it was already assumed that there would be an easy victory for the Australian team, but it was not an easy victory for Australia. They even lost 5 of their wickets while reaching the set target. Hence we can assume that this match was competitive. Scotland lost but I am definitely happy with their performance. I hope they can do better in future.

Afghanistan team will not qualify for Semi final but omit is not that kind of team that will play semi final. If Afghanistan team qualify y for Semi final , it will lose the match in semi final because they can't handle the pressure in big match . USA qualified in super 8 and they performed very well in debue tournament and I think they will not qualify in semi final. I was very shocked when I thought that England could be out of the tournament but then God gave him respect and rain interrupted in this match but they won the match due to DLS method. Tournament will be very interesting in future,So see the matches of tournament and enjoy it.

Did anyone here watched the match between Bangladesh and Nepal? The wicket was so bad that it wasn't easy to play for batters of both side. I am certain that Nepal fans were delighted to see their team taking initial wicket within the first power play. What they failed to realize was that they will be bating on the same shit pitch.

The one thing that I should say about Nepal team is that their field efforts were better than the bongs. There inexperience proved when their captain came up with a new bowler in the 18th over. They had nothing to lose and yet they made it difficult for both Sout Africa and Bangladesh to qualify for the Super 8.

In the beginning the players of Nepal team performed very well, but towards the end they performed very poorly. Because the batsmen of the Nepal team performed well by protecting the wicket in the power play, but the wicket started falling before the power play ended. But I saw the game completely fell apart in the 19th over, because this match was so Mustafizur Rahman in the 17th over and the 19th over that the Nepal team was likely to lose. 
Because Mustafizur Rahman gave seven runs in 4 overs and collected three wickets. Mustafizur Rahman will be the main point of Bangladesh team's victory, Nepal team is forced to lose because of Mustafizur Rahman's bowling performance.

They could have won both the matches (against Bangladesh and South Africa), but ended up throwing away the match on both the occasions. Extremely slow batting during the middle overs was the main reason for their failure, on both cases. Today, Kushal Malla and Dipendra Singh Airee waited for too long and wasted too many balls until the required run rate climbed to more than 8 runs per over. And then the captain made the mistake of sending Gulsan Jha to bat, ahead of Sompal Kami and Sandeep Lamichhane.  

Nepal is doing everything correct as per my understanding. What they lack is experience and they look similar to what Afganistan did when they started earlier. I won't say that they were bad but Bangladesh was better that them. Another few years and they will be better than Afghanistan as BCCI is now working with the Nepal Cricket Board.

No doubt Shaheen Shah did a good bowling spell in this match but this time not a good performance by Abbas Afridi, I think Naseem Shah was a better option but still no problem because the Pakistan team was clearly out of the tournament then this match had no importance in this World Cup for the Pakistan team and both losing teams are playing this because Ireland was also out from the World Cup before this match.

Anyways, Abbas Afridi is a good player but when they have Naseem, Rauf, Muhammad Amir, and Shaheen Shah in the options then I don’t think so he has to play a match but as I said it is the last then they can try it and after trying him, they got no good result from him. Yes, but he could be a good player in ODI matches

Nepal team players are not quality players and  they can't be successful to get reputation in cricket. Afghanistan cricket quality is strong due to two big players , Rashid Khan and Mujeeb . Rashid khan and Mujeeb played IPL and they performed very well in the International matches also and they are match winners. I give you surety if there two players are not in the team ,team will lose the match against Bangladeshi team. Nepal players should work on their skills and they should play the leagues and when they will play the leagues like IPL, PSL and BBL,they will play with and against big players of World . That is place for them to polish and that is single way to improve the quality of Nepal cricket.

Papua New Guinea vs New Zealand

Papua New Guinea is now playing against New Zealand. This match is not an important match for any team. Because New Zealand lost the first two matches against West Indies and Afghanistan, New Zealand has no chance of qualifying for the next round. New Zealand won against Uganda in the last match, and New Zealand will definitely win today's match.

Papua New Guinea team managed to collect 25 runs in 8 overs. Guinea lost two wickets against Papua. The way the team is batting, the Guinea team will not be able to collect 100 runs with Papua. New Zealand team will win easily today. New Zealand team can keep the third place in the table.

Bangladesh team qualified for super eight by winning three matches out of four excellent performance by Bangladesh team throughout the tournament they gave tough time to every team in this world cup. Bangladesh team fought hard against south Africa but unluckily lost by just 4 runs if they won that match they will have finished at number 1 in group D. in his last match against nepal Bangladesh team gave the target of 107 runs only excellent bowling by nepal team but their batsmen unable to chase this low target outstanding bowling by Bengali bowlers Tanzim Hasan takes 4 wickets by giving just 7 runs while Taskin Ahmed took three wickets and Nepal team lost the match by 21 runs Nepal also played well against south Africa and lost by just one runs. I think in 2026 world cup qualifiers nepal come back more strongly because they have the ability to compete any team Bangladesh team joins Australia, india and Afghanistan in Group 1.

This match is important for New Zealand team because for protecting their atleast dignity. Because they have already lost against weaker teams like Afghanistan and West Indies which has already eliminated them from the first round of this World Cup. I think it's a shame for them already, I thought they would be champions of this group C.  
Anyway nothing more to say about today's game it is already known that New Zealand team will win with Papua New Guinea Papua New Guinea team got only 74 runs in 18 overs and lost their seven wickets I don't think Papua New Guinea can cross 90 runs.  The New Zealand team will easily win the match.

New Zealand team won by a big margin against Uganda. A target of only 41 runs was given by the players of Uganda. New Zealand bowled well. However, New Zealand performed very poorly against West Indies and Afghanistan.

The New Zealand captain won the toss and decided to field in today's match. And as usual the New Zealand bowlers managed to bowl well today too. Papua New Guinea managed to collect only 78 runs after losing 10 wickets. Boult, Southee and Sodhi picked up two wickets each. The interesting part is that Lockie Ferguson picked up three wickets and did not concede any runs in 4 overs. If the New Zealand team can do such a performance against Afghanistan and West Indies, the team would be able to qualify for the next round.

Nepali team is new to cricket world, so it is natural that their experience is less. Today, despite being a new team, the way they stress to the Bangladesh team, they had a high chance of winning, but they could not do anything even in such an easy match. If they could have kept the wicket they could have won the match. Their bowling attraction was quite good. However, the last wicket of the Bangladesh team was supposed to be taken earlier but because of that they were able to add some more scores to the team. I also believe that the result of this match would have changed if the Nepalese team had more experience. I was optimistic about Nepal team in this match because they have done very well in previous matches. However, Shakib's team was not an easy opponent for the Nepal team. Bangladesh team is a very strong and they also performed brilliantly and won their match with a low score of runs.

Not at all, Nepal team has been playing cricket since 1996, check their cricket history on Google. Already Nepal cricket team has crossed their two eras of cricket and now Nepal is not new to cricket. But you can call them new as their development is very slow. The Nepal team may not have received the Test status from the ICC yet, they have only participated in the T20 World Cup this year. As the pitches of this World Cup are bowling friendly, the bowlers of their team are bowling brilliantly, especially the two leg spinners of their team are spinning the ball brilliantly in every match.
Even though the Nepali team has potential, they are currently eliminated, meaning they will not be able to reach the Super Eight again. By defeating them in today's match, Bangladesh team confirmed the Super Eight. However, in this year's World Cup, Nepal cricket team appeared in a new form, they did great against some big teams.

The New Zealand team is batting at a target of only 79 runs. As the bowlers bowled brilliantly. In particular, Ferguson took 3 wickets without conceding any runs. So I expected New Zealand's batsmen to bat responsibly. But New Zealand opener Finn Allen returned to the dressing room without collecting any runs. At the end of the first over, the New Zealand team lost 1 wicket and collected 1 run.

I thought New Zealand will save their status and like the last match, New Zealand will dominate the match today as well. But I am not satisfied with the batting of the New Zealand batsmen. So many experienced batsmen are batting like fools. New Zealand will probably win, but their players need to work harder. Almost every batsman in New Zealand's squad performed well in the IPL. But their performance with the national team is very bad.

It's NewZeland victory against Papua New Guinea in his very last match of the tournament despite they are out of the tournament before even qualify to super 8 like paksitan but it's part of game here you will face alot of ups and downs and currently some of teams like paksitan, NewZeland, sirilanka are really facing one of thier worst form, but let me clear it will be great fights between them in next T20 qualifier.

Sirilanka vs Netherlands
Today we have clash between sirilanka and Netherlands where sirilankan team bat first and by properly utilizing each and every opportunity they scored a decent 200+ target while on the other hand Netherlands played very especially thier lower middle order and middle order where they can easily turn match situation but unfortunately they unable to done it and thus lose the last match of the tournament

Rightly said, this match was very important for New Zealand, they won this match. But whan A Fallen lost his wicket for zero runs , I had a little doubt in my mind but New Zealand is a strong team , so even if they lose two , three or four wickets in this match , still they don't matter. Had Papua New Guinea run target been a bit higher the first wicket falling to New Zealand zero runs could have put pressure on the New Zealand players, due to which the Papua New Guinea bowlers could have dominated New Zealand. But New Zealand showed that we are a strong team and they completed Papua New Guinea run target in just 12 overs.In which D Conway made 35 run in 32 balls and K Williamson made 18 run , and D Mitchell made 19 runs with the continue their inning.

The West Indies team won by a huge margin against West Indies vs Afghanistan. The West Indies team has collected the highest number of runs in this T20 World Cup No team has collected 218 runs in today's match. And the West Indies team has taken 218 runs for the first time in T20 World Cup in today's match, losing 5 wickets, they have really done an amazing batting performance in today's match. West Indies batsman Pooran batted on fire in today's match due to which he narrowly failed to score a century by just 2 runs which is very unfortunate for him. However, in today's match Afghanistan team lost by 104 runs Afghanistan batsmen have given a very disappointing batting performance today. Today's player of the match Nicholas Pooran scored the highest runs and his batting performance was impressive. But the runs scored in today's match definitely makes West Indies a strong team, and they are more excited in this World Cup and favorites to win the trophy.

Indeed, the West Indies team showcased an exceptional performance in their recent match against Afghanistan in the T20 World Cup.
Nicholas Pooran scored almost 100 runs and it seems like that West Indies are the favourites in this World Cup as they are in super form.

I have not seen any other team in this format of cricket recently, who is so confident in each of their matches. They are one of the best teams to win this World Cup or least go in the finals of this competition.

"00000W"
This is Mustafiz's fourth over and team's 19th bowling spell. While Nepal needed to score 22 runs from 12 balls to win this match, Mustafiz came in the 19th over and scored the first five ball dot. If I say that five balls are dotted then I will be wrong, instead I should say that the batsman failed to hit the first 5 balls and the sixth ball is out. How do you see Mustafizur Rahman's bowling? Even if you don't like the game of cricket in Bangladesh, you still have to appreciate this over.

There is no reason to think that Mustafiz bowled like that against an inexperienced batsman because the man in the strike position in the 19th over is one of Nepal's best players. Mustafiz had earlier hit multiple boundaries and over boundaries in the overs of those who came to bowl for Bangladesh but he failed to connect a ball with the bat in Mustafiz's 19th over. The entire cricketing world is currently praising Mustafiz's entire spell along with this over.

Pooran was on a rampage he hit 8 sixes and 6 fours against Afghanistan and destroyed all their hopes. The only shortcoming was that he missed out on his century by only 2 runs. He got run out because of an unexpected direct throw from the boundary otherwise he would have got his first century in a T20WC. If WI plays in the same manner against the ENG, then the defending champions will be out of this tournament. The first game of the Super 8 will be played tomorrow between the USA and SA, if everything goes well the SA should win the match comfortably.

NZ Team gave an excellent performance after losing two consecutive match in previous match they dominated on Uganda just 40 runs while today match news Zealand restricted Papua new Guinea on 78 runs excellent bowling by new Zealand bowlers. Lockie Ferguson created history in t20 world cup by taking 3 wickets and 4 overs doing maiden this is the second time in t20 international any bowlers do his spell maiden trent boult and tim southee spell was also brilliant they took 2, 2 wickets and new Zealand team easily chased the target. PNG lost their all matches and New Zealand finished number 3 in the points table with four points if they manage to beat West Indies they will be in the Super Eight in recent few years New Zealand team performance has been outstanding black caps is giving their hundred percent but unluckily they could not deliver in knockout stages.

That spell by Lockie Ferguson was simply unbelievable (4-4-0-3). He bowled 24 deliveries in T20I cricket, and didn't conceded a single run. But even then, Papua New Guinea managed to reach a total of 78. And make no mistakes here. 78 is a decent total for an associate nation, against a team like New Zealand, given the pitch conditions. Anyway, it was the end of tournament for PNG. They lost all of the matches they played, but every time they gave a good fight to their opponents. And despite winning yesterday's match, New Zealand could not qualify for the Super8 phase.

I don't think we will witness anyone beating this record in T-20 anytime soon if I dare to say then, at least not in our lifetime. It could be possible in associate cricket but not in the internationals.

Even 6 sixes in an over looks doable and simple task when comparing 24 dots balls spell with 3 timber in a batting dominated format.  

Technically no one can "beat" this record, as he conceded 0 runs from 4 overs. Others will be able to equalize, but doing better than this is theoretically impossible. With the ICC expanding the tournament to 20 teams, we may find incidents like this happening more often. Still, it is hard to believe that this Ferguson guy, who got whacked all around the park in the IPL a few months back is now performing so well for his national team. PNG still made a somewhat decent total of 78.

The way Afghanistan has performed in the group stage matches in this World Cup tournament, I can't really think that the West Indies batsmen will bat so aggressively against Afghanistan. The way the West Indies batsmen went wide on the Afghan bowlers made it seem like it was not a World Cup tournament but a big match of the IPL. West Indies can definitely make a splash in this World Cup tournament and they can definitely make it look like the World Cup is being held in their country. West Indies has definitely announced the best team for this T20 World Cup and with this team it is definitely possible to win the World Cup.

This may be the first time in the history of cricket where a bowler has completed four overs of his spell but has not cost any runs in return. Lockie Ferguson managed to achieve such a record against Papua New Guinea yesterday. He only scored 24 balls out of 24 balls but not like that he picked up three wickets in 24 balls. I never thought that such things can happen in cricket and also in T20 format. After Lockie Ferguson's record yesterday, I think maybe the rest of the players can make the impossible possible.  Lockie Ferguson's career best bowling might be another match in terms of wickets but he is the only record holder for what he has done in this match.

Read more into it and found out Canada's Saad Bin Zafar (Originally from Pakistan) was the first cricketer to achieve this sort of feat, which was against Panama in t-20 WC America's Region Qualifier and his stat reads 4-4-0-2.

Well, in this WC, many bowlers got some juicy stats so anything is possible.

There is no doubt that Ferguson bowled well. And this is probably the first time in the history of the World Cup. Ferguson conceded no runs in four overs and took three wickets. There is no doubt that the New Zealand bowlers have bowled brilliantly in the last two matches.

However, New Zealand failed to qualify for the next round. I don't think it's a big achievement to win against weaker teams like Uganda and Papua New Guinea. This team is one of the two weakest teams in this year's World Cup. The New Zealand team lost badly against Afghanistan and West Indies in two important matches. New Zealand lost by perhaps a huge margin of 84 runs against Afghanistan. So even though New Zealand performed very well in the last two matches, it has no value.

USA will give tough time to all teams . It played well against Pakistan and won the match and it also gave tough time to Indian team but Indian team won the match due to great batting. South African team past performance is not good and they lost the series against West Indies and Now ,South Africa team has no quality players and both teams are of same level and match will be tough for both teams and no team is favorite in USA VS SA match. USA batters are looking in good form and USA made a good team for a first time and it took players from many countries and there are less players of USA originally. And USA teams has many big players and they will play good in this match and match will be very interesting and I will see the match ball to ball.

I don't think that it will be easy for the USA against South Africa. They gave a tough time to Pakistan because of Pakistan own fault. South Africa is a strong team with good batters and bowlers. I was reading that the pitch will be fat and the team winning the toss will go for batting. Teams that have batted first have always won on that stadium.

USA is performing much better than other teams in this T20 World Cup. Although we have seen strong teams lose in the past so today's match against South Africa will definitely have a strong enough attack to win. Although the South Africans are not as strong as they used to be at present, if they perform poorly against the US, they will lose Math. Team USA will try hard to beat South Africa in today's match and I think if they give it their all they will succeed. If the performance of USA team players is much better than South Africa, we can expect USA team to win today's match. But since South Africa team is experienced and more regular in their cricket game, they might be able to beat USA today.

Almost everyone will agree with you that no doubt the USA team has been the most promising team among all the other new teams that we have witnessed in this World Cup and they have done really good to reach to the Super 8s.

Today is the day when unbeaten team South Africa is going to play against the United States of America. Until now they are unbeaten just because they have faced too many small teams and their group was too much easy as compared to other groups but sad for Sri Lanka that even they could not go to super 8s.
In their group there was Nepal, Netherlands, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka too. So, they easily qualified and now it is the time to see them against the United States of America and I think for sure they will win it again and still remain unbeaten after this match. The hosts will be willing to see their team go as far as possible in this tournament.

New Zealand didn't qualify for the next round, so there is definitely something wrong with them. We didn't find the New Zealand team in the few matches they left in the beginning because the New Zealand team is not such a performing team. Maybe it was because this was the first time New Zealand played in American conditions that they did not perform as expected. US wickets have behaved differently at different times. Where the fast bowlers should have bounced they did not get the bounce but the spin bowlers who are there got a lot more bounce than expected as well as a lot of runs.
New Zealand wickets are usually bouncing wickets where the ball falls on the wicket and the ball comes up above the waist, this is not the case with US wickets. Instead of blaming the condition they should be blamed for their performance because Australia India Bangladesh Afghanistan they qualified for the next round where New Zealand failed.

I would not agree with your point of view that because New Zealand did not played before in the United States, they lost the matches. If we see that this is the first time any ICC event is held in USA, so the pitch and conditions are new for every team. It is just how these teams react to the situation and adapt the situation.

Talking about the New Zealand's journey, they lost both of their initial matches with Afghanistan and the West Indies. Although they won the last two matches against the smaller teams (Uganda and P.N.G), but that does not matter much. Well they can say that if they had the matches with smaller teams first, then they could have idea about pitches and perhaps show a better performance against big teams. I think these are just excuses and New Zealand has to admit that their performance was not up to the mark in this WC.

New Zealand's performance in this T20 World Cup has not been good at all. It is natural that the climate and soil of each country will be different. The New Zealand team has done well in the conditions they have played against many teams in the past. But it must be said that in this World Cup their performance was not good and even none of their players were in proper form due to this bad condition of their team.
The New Zealand team managed to win only two matches against weak teams, the other two being defeats against West Indies and Afghanistan. New Zealand's worst defeat came against Afghanistan as the Afghanistan bowlers failed to understand the delivery. This year's World Cup was a tournament full of failures for the New Zealand team. Since I have been watching cricket for a long time, I have never seen the New Zealand team do such a bad performance in any major tournament i.e. the World Cup.

Sri Lanka is a top team in cricket game and played this game with good runs match and won. The Sri Lankan man cricket team is very famous world wide and watching their games is always enjoyable. From my side and very sorry for Netherlands. If won the match in Netherlands he had been losing all the previous matches. Sri Lanka played a fantastic match and won with some excellent runs for Netherlands would say Sri Lanka showed great skill and determination on the field securing a well deserved victory. Sri Lanka won by  83 runs and won the match. Charith asalanka is a very talented boy. Netherlands won the toss. Netherlands elected to batting first. The 38th match between Netherlands and Sri Lanka played at  Daren  Sammy national stadium. The best batting performance in the Sri Lanka man team was by charith asalanka scored 46 runs and 26 balls hitting 1 fours and 5 sixs. Sri Lanka won by 201 runs. Netherlands 118 runs and power the match. Congratulations to Sri Lanka

In this World Cup, we are just seeing nothing because no sixes, no boundaries, just wickets and also those wickets are not like wickets mean choosing the United States of America to host is such a bad decision. After all, we don’t have even good pitches where we can see sixes, and those pitches are also very unique because that pitch also came out after the match and then we can do any other sports there.
Maybe New Zealand wasn't able to get used to these new conditions.

Correct, this game between USA team and South Africa team will be played after almost 1 hour. This game is going very tough not easy for both team and also we don't underestimate the effort of USA team and I know this is the first time USA team qualify for next Super Eight round games and other side, South Africa team also have a very experience player and played many big games like world cup and other series. Both these teams played amazingly in past games and qualify for this round. I choose USA team who will win this game which will start after few times. These teas New Zealand and Pakistan did not qualify this round these team did not their good effort and USA pitches also very aggressive and also we did not see any runs target like 200 and more. Only few teams made above 150 runs and set this target and also very low boundaries connect in this series. let's see at end of game who will win this game but I choose USA for their past games struggle with good statistics.

The first match of the quarter-finals will take place today where USA will take on South Africa. The USA are new to cricket but they beat the big teams to qualify for the quarter finals of the World Cup tournament. Qualifying for the quarterfinals is certainly a big achievement for the USA, but they will want to do well in the quarterfinals to advance to the semifinals. They won all the matches in the group stage but they did not perform very well to win. Against Bangladesh they won from losing and against Nepal also they won by only one run so it is assumed that this match of South Africa against USA will be a tough competition.

The first match of Super 8 is being played today, in which USA and South Africa are facing each other.
Quinton de Kock has already scored a half century, his batting performance today is interesting.
Aiden Markram is also doing a great batting performance as the captain of the team and will soon hit his half century.
At the moment, the partnership of the two batsmen has held up remarkably well and has collected a good run after 10 overs.
101/1 -- 10 over
Quinton de Kock (58/33)
Aiden Markram   (27/18)
The batting performance that we see in today's match will easily collect 200 runs on both of them.

I really doubt whether Panama even ranks among the top-50 T20I teams. But then the ICC made all the matches between associate nations as T20Is. Now the problem is that a stronger associate nation (such as Scotland or Nepal) can invite a really weak team like Falkland Islands or Mongolia for a T20I series, and then get themselves into the record books. I am a big supporter of associate teams, but the decision to grant T20I status to all the associate matches was a short-sighted one.

Fair point but the record is there to stay. Yeah, we can argue about ranking but similarly, it could also be said about Ferguson'r record as well that he stat padded against the weaker associate (which I don't endorse).

Well, I don't mind ICC handing over T-20 status to every associate but they should up their ante by supporting them more by providing some game time with Top 10 or Top 20 teams.

 

I don't have a problem if teams like India or Australia refuse to play against the associate nations. But then, when teams like Ireland or Zimbabwe, or for that matter Bangladesh or Sri Lanka does the same, it doesn't set a good precedent. The bottom ranking full members should play more often against top-ranked associates (such as Scotland, Netherlands, Nepal and Namibia), at least in the T20I format. Why Zimbabwe is treated as a priority member, when better teams like Nepal are given only 1/50th of the funds in comparison?

No doubt, South Africa did bat well in the first 10 overs but then the USA did put some breaks on the scoring. Anyhow they managed to score 194 runs and i think it is beyond the capabilities of the United States to chase this big target. Quinton de Kock played a brilliant innings of 76 and i must say that almost everyone scored quick runs and never let the USA bowlers to settle in.

https://i.ibb.co/myk81Nm/shots.jpg

Since the USA bowlers weren't able to get quick wickets, they become under a lot of pressure and didn;t know how to respond to the South African attack. Although Saurabh Netravalkar and Harmeet Singh got 2 wickets each but overall they were struggling to find their right line and lenght. You can understand the frustration of the USA team as they tried 7 bowlers but still no success for them.

We can forget BIG-3 (National teams) accommodating any associates because these guys have jam-packed schedule due to amount of cricket they play, especially India.

I'd prefer if associates are playing against top domestic teams, pick any best local team for T-20, ODI or 4 day tests, similar to this. 

Yes , you are right that decision of ICC is wrong. ICC should choose UAE for the World Cup hosting. USA have no professional staff to take care of pitch and in USA there is no trend of cricket. But that is politics and USA want to earn money by this World Cup and ICC collaborated with USA government and that is bad decision for big teams. New Zealand and Pakistan are out of  the World Cup while USA and Scotland are in the World Cup.Mist Probably USA and Scotland will lose in super 8 and they will not qualify for Semi final. When I think that , Pakistan and New Zealand should be in the super 8. Tournament will be more interesting and enjoyable.Pakistani team played bad but Pakistani team has potential to win against any team ,so Pakistani team is more dangerous than USA and Scotland.

The problem with USA was that the weather conditions were not good, and the preparations were not done properly. If they can work on these aspects, then USA can become the cash cow for ICC. The India vs Pakistan match alone $15 million in the form of gate collection. If the same match is hosted in UAE, then the most we can expect is $2 million. On top of that, I don't have a good impression about the UAE. It is known as the global hub of match fixing, and criminals like Dawood Ibrahim are often spotted during international matches. 

The US is in the process of starting a cricket league which is backed by some of the richest Indians in the US. They will become bigger than many known cricket playing nations by the next World Cup. They are still new and they were playing against South Africa who are good with white ball cricket. It was expected that they will be defeated but they did give the South African a good fight as they got defeated by a small margin.

The match between West Indies and England is currently going on. The home team has given a target of 181 runs for England to chase. A good target and I am skeptical if the England batters will be able to chase the target.

Can you share the source of this news? It will be great if he have another big league after IPL , that will add to the entertainment. Also, such leagues will boost the local cricket in the US too (just as IPL is doing wonders for the Indian cricket).

---

We are seeing some good matches by the USA team. Nothing else, just imagine what if Quinton de Kock would not score 70 and out at least on 40 score then for sure United States of America can won this match.

Also, they made their place in the 2026 World Cup. Wow, what a team they are and what type of players they have such like a wonderful. All praises finish for them because they are a good team and they may do well not in this World Cup but can do in 2026 (as they will be more mature by then.) I hope, However, in today’s match, their luck was not working otherwise i thought they bought the match to a position where they could have beaten the more experienced SA team.

https://i.ibb.co/sgQm3h0/scrnli-20-06-2024-09-31-41.png

England is going to make a great comeback. West Indies team performed well against Afghanistan. Also West Indies team was in very good form. So I considered the West Indies team as the favorite against England today.

West Indies team managed to collect 180 runs by batting first today. However, the target of 181 runs cannot be called a big target on this batting friendly pitch. West Indies batsmen batted well. Now England's top order batsmen are also playing well. At the end of 14 overs, the England team collected 125 runs, losing only two wickets. Phil Salt remained unbeaten with 48 runs and Bairstow 32 runs. England need only 56 runs from 6 overs.

In current game of super eight round, this 42 nd game is playing between West indies team and England team. First batting lineup was successfully completed and West indies team batted first. In this game, England team won the toss and they gave a batting opportunity to first West indies and their team decided to bowl first. West indies team effort in batting lineup was brilliant and their Batsman showed great determination in field with making 180 runs target by losing 4 wickets and this target was not easy to chase and England effort in past games also not well. In current situation, their team did not play good in bat and also have very difficulties to vase target because now west indies bowlers put high pressure to their batsman and stopped them at low runs. let's see what happen in next England team will chase this target. England needs 64 runs in 41 balls.

Although the West Indies team gave a target of 181 runs, England did not have any problem to win this match. England team won very easily. I don't like the performance of the West Indies bowlers today. England team has reached the goal of winning by losing only 2 wickets.

Opener Salt was unbeaten on 87 off 47 balls. Jonny Bairstow was unbeaten on 48 off 26 balls. Because of this pair, England reached the target of victory very easily. I considered the West Indies team to be one of the worthy contenders for this year's World Cup. But seeing the performance of West Indies in this match, I don't think West Indies will qualify for the semi finals.

It is called the MLC (Major League Cricket), you can do a Google search. It is backed by ACE (American Cricket Enterprise), that consists of consortium of 20 investors. Prominent names are Satya Nadella who is the CEO of Microsoft, Shantanu Narayen who is the Chairman and CEO of Adobe, Vijay Shekhar Sharma, Founder and CEO of Paytm based in India and others. It is already getting much mainstream media attention after the success of the US team in the tournament.

In this match I saw the result as per my expectations. I have placed a bet on the victory of the England team. And England won this match easily. But I thought the match would be competitive. But the match was one-sided. England's batsmen batted at the target of 181 runs. And England's batsmen dominated the match.

However, since this year's World Cup is being held in the West Indies. And West Indies are very experienced in T20 format. Therefore, West Indies are considered to be one of the favorites of this year's World Cup. However. England team is very experienced. And my favorite team. That's why I am betting on England to win today. England players do not disappoint me. England players played very well and won.

This statement proves that the USA has showcased them as a strong opponent. They were very close to chasing down that big total. It doesn’t feel like the USA is playing World Cup for the first time. I must say that the players are well deserved in the team. The batting almost chased the target if the top order had shown some mature innings. On the other hand, SA have won all their matches in this world cup. Now that the matches are shifted to the West Indies, we are really able to see high-scoring matches. The Super 8 battle will be really fun on these pitches.

England was able to win the match easily. They did not even have to play the whole 20 over. When England lost the second wicket I actually thought England might be in a little bit of trouble. But another good partnership between Salt and Jonny Bairstow made sure that they are able to win the match with 15 balls left. Winning by eight wickets and 15 balls left is a very comfortable win for any team. so far it has been really hard to understand what can be a good score in this World Cup. We have seen scores near 100 get defended and we have also seen high scores like this getting chased easily.

Afghanistan is going to play against India today. India is obviously going to be the favorite. But I am expecting a good fight from Afghanistan.

180 target for a team like England, who are the defending champions was not enough. WI fielding was top class but Powel missing two catches behind the wickets might be the turning point of the game. Bairstow was very lucky against the WI there were a few occasions when he should have got out. His luck was in his side don't know how long will it keep him safe.

South Africa beat the USA in the first match of the quarter finals and England secured a big 8 wicket win over the West Indies in the second match and now the third match will be held shortly. India and Afghanistan are the opponents in the third match.

India won the toss and elected to bat first against Afghanistan. As we have seen a good amount of runs in both the matches, India may be planning to bat first to secure a big target for Afghanistan. India's batting and bowling lineup is very strong, so if India can score 170 to 190 runs against Afghanistan, then India's chances of winning this match will increase a lot. Afghanistan have started very well in this World Cup tournament so Afghanistan can surely give tough competition against India.

I think India are favorite to win today's match. Also, if we check the history of cricket matches between these two nations, Afghanistan usually do not perform well against the Indian team.

By the way, According to Cricinfo before the World Cup Virat Kohli gave hints that it could be his last World Cup but today Cricinfo said, now the hint is even more confirmed and after this World Cup there are 90% chances that he will step down from his cricket career.
Not a confirmation yet because whenever I research on it then somebody says it is wrong news and even some giving are the photo as an example but still not confirmed. Imagine, if it could be his last World Cup, then the full team of India will change because the team of India when Virat Kohli is not playing is totally different when he is in the playing 11.

Today we saw a different West Indies.The way the West Indies team has been performing since the beginning of this year's men's T20 2024 season has been reversed in today's match.We have seen West Indies win every match in the group stage but suddenly in the first match of Super Eight they lost to England by 8 wickets which is a very sad situation.

In today's match, West Indies team batted 180 runs, maybe these runs were enough to win, but England team gave a very good batting performance and won the match. Philip Salt gave an impeccable batting performance for the England team. This is his first best innings as an opening batsman in this World Cup. The West Indies team stumbled in the first match of the Super Eight in such a bad way that it is beyond imagination.Everyone is very optimistic about this West Indies team, will they be able to keep their hope. The performance against England may not be telling.

https://i.ibb.co/8847LNZ/rashid-khan.jpg

Rashid Khan is doing his last over in this match and if he does not pick wickets in these last balls of his fourth over then we are not likely his bowling again in today’s match.

Oh! Two balls have been passed and no wickets taken by him. It could be a problem because against India, only he is doing good bowling. Let’s see still two balls are left, we want something good in this. Nope, nothing is good here and he has done 3 wickets while he afforded 26 runs. Good bowling by Rashid Khan in this match. No extra given by him in today’s match.

Rashid Khan's bowling performance against India in today's match was very good. He took 3 wickets for 26 runs in 4 overs which was amazing but as he didn't take any more wickets his bowling was excellent. Rashid Khan gave his best performance against India in today's match and bowled best due to which Indian team could not score much runs in today's match. Moreover Fazalhaq Farooqi also bowled brilliantly his 31 runs in 3.4 overs collecting 3 wickets is really interesting. And in today's match, these two bowled brilliantly and put India under a lot of pressure, however, Afghanistan has a good chance of winning today's match. These two bowlers have done a great bowling performance in today's match.

I think the Indian team can give a good target because in the 15th over they crossed 130 runs and still 30 balls are left in which the Indian team can make a decent score.

In this time, the wicket of any player is very important for the Afghanistan team because I am sure this match will be intense later on and every run scored or saved will matter a lot when Afghanistan comes to bat. The Indian team is batting with a run rate of 8 runs per over and I think they will make 180+, that is my prediction.
Today Afghanistan will have to chase a big target.

https://i.ibb.co/YjgXLLz/scrnli-20-06-2024-22-33-34.png

Your guess is correct. India team collected 181 runs losing 8 wickets. A descent of 182 runs set India a target. I wouldn't say it's a big target. There is no way to call it a big target considering the pitch. India could have been in the safe zone if they scored 200+ runs. But now I will say that Afghanistan has a big chance to win this match.

Suryakumar Yadav batted very aggressively today. He managed to score 53 runs off just 28 balls. No other batsman could bat at such an excellent strike rate.

Due to controlled bowling by Fazalhaaq Farooqi and Rashid Khan, India could not score 200+ runs. Both Farooqi and Rashid picked up three wickets each. Rashid Khan conceded just 26 runs in 4 overs and took three wickets. If Afghanistan's batsmen can bat responsibly, Afghanistan has a chance to win this match.

Personally I don't think Afghanistan team can beat India. India is a very experienced team. Afghanistan is strong in this World Cup but not as experienced as India. It is very difficult to bat well against Indian bowlers.

Afghanistan's top order is performing very badly today. Despite batting well in previous matches, Afghanistan's top order batsmen Rahmanullah Gurbaaz, Hazratullah Zazai and Ibrahim Zadran did not bat well today. Afghanistan team lost three wickets to collect only 23 runs. After 5 overs, Afghanistan managed to collect 27 runs after losing 3 wickets. Bumrah picked up two wickets in 2 overs and Azar Patel picked up one wicket in 1 over and did not give any runs.

Your guess is going to be correct. Afghanistan team will be defeated today. I wouldn't be surprised if Afghanistan lose by a big margin. Afghanistan collected 91 runs in 14 overs. And Afghanistan took 5 wickets.

India's bowling attack is strong. If Afghanistan's experienced top-order batsmen got off to a good start, the match would have been competitive. Because Afghanistan's batsmen are capable of batting at a smart strike rate. It is now impossible for Afghanistan to win this match after poor batting from the top order. Afghanistan's batsmen need to score around 15 runs per over if they want to win.

Yes, you and everyone else is right on the fact that India will win today's match but we should also see the negative points that could be improved for the next matches that India will be playing.

Not well performance from the start by Shivam Dube, even not only in batting, he also disappointed us in fielding. But after too many tries, he got a chance again and again and it could be dangerous for the Indian team in the playoffs if they qualify because he is like a waste place in the playing 11. 
After seeing his today’s match performance, I don’t think that he should have to play the next match against Bangladesh and Australia too. Hardik Pandya and Surya Kumar making a very good partnership and if they play like this then for sure the match could be hard for the all the teams that play against them.

In the first round matches, we have seen a good performance from Afghanistan, in today's match, the batsmen of Afghanistan did not bat that well. Especially the Afghanistan team faced a strong and experienced team like India. They should have batted more carefully. But Afghanistan's top order could not survive at the crease in front of BUmrah and Axar Patel's onslaught. Afghanistan's top order collapsed very quickly. If the top order does not play well, it is impossible to win such a big target.

None of Afghanistan's batsmen can bat that well. Azmatullah Omarzai managed to collect the maximum 26 runs. After 17 overs, Afghanistan's total is 119/7. Afghanistan still need 63 runs from 18 balls.

Yes ,you are right. But had to bowl good and they should defend that target. The fielding of West Indian team was not perfect and  they  did many mistakes. West Indian won the last series against South Africa and won the 4 out of 4 in 16 teams group stage.

 Now , the competition is tough and if West Indies win the next matches, it will qualify and we will see the huge team in Semi final. West Indian team is hosting the World Cup ,So West Indian team  is favorite in this World Cup. But no one can give guarantee of any team and we will thrill in this World Cup because big teams will beat big teams and then we will see super 2 teams in the final.West Indian bowlers are not quality bowlers and if England team score 180 runs , England team could easily defend this score .

Agreed, India team winning all his games in World cup only one game is cancelled against Ireland. indian team set the big target of 181 runs brilliant batting by indian team they dominated on Afghanistan. Suryakumar make fifty which help his team setting a big big total amd won the game by 47 runs. Arshdeep Singh take 3 wickets but Jasprit Bumrah brilliant bowling spell 3/7. suryakumar and Hardik Pandya played a decent partnership Afg batters tried their best to won the game but indian bowled out Afghanistan team in 134 score. This Indian team will definitely win this world cup and confidence of beating any team in the tournament. lets see which will beat india in this world cup.

Afghanistan had their moments during the game, but in the end the Indians used their experience to gain the upper hand. At one point, India was struggling at 90/4. But then Suryakumar Yadav joined Hardik Pandya and was able to build a sizable fifth wicket partnership. And in the end there were fireworks from Axar Patel and Ravindra Jadeja. Apart from Fazalhaq Farooqi and Rashid Khan, the remaining Afghan bowlers failed to take wickets at crucial intervals. And I don't know why they included Naveen-ul-Haq in the playing XI. He always leaks a lot of runs.

It was not easy for the Afghanistan batsmen to stay at the crease against Arshdeep Singh and Jasprit Bhumrah. Both managed to pick up three wickets each. More importantly, Bhumrah conceded only 7 runs in 4 overs. And because of Bumrah's controlled bowling, India managed to win by a huge margin of 47 runs.

The strongest teams in Group 1 are India and Australia. Bangladesh and Afghanistan cannot be among the top 2 teams in the table. I am looking forward to watch India vs Australia match. No doubt this match will be very competitive. India will definitely be looking to avenge their ODI World Cup final defeat. Undoubtedly, India wants to be the champion of the T20 World Cup.

But let be honest I think they don't want to kicked his IPL contract worth cores for just one international victory against india, so they lose every time against India until they get confirmation to not get any IPL contract that time. Hope you guys will understand betterly lol 😂

Yeh Indian team really done a good job and secure his place a bit in super 8 round while compared to them Afghanistan will be in trouble situation later after that defeat because they will face Australia in his second match of the super which is already a horrible nightmare for them and that defeat will close door for them for next stages of the tournament because they will have already lose his two match our of thier thier matches. So in my view they are already out of the tournament until any mericle happened and they defeat the Australian team for a first time In T20 history and any ICC events. Anyway I was expecting 150 around target from team India especially after dismissal of thier top three but later the way SKY healed his team and put him back on track was phenomenal and here they get some extra runs while later bumrah, Arshdeep, and rest of thier bowler filled the required spaces and thus won the match

Bangladesh VS Australia

Bangladesh and Australia will meet in the 40th match of T20 World Cup. Australia is a stronger team than Bangladesh. However, currently Bangladesh's bowling line has become very strong, Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman are currently in great form. But the batting line of Bangladesh is very weak, especially the top order batsmen of Bangladesh cannot perform well. Australia has performed brilliantly in this World Cup. Australia won 4 out of 4 matches in the first round group stage. Australian players are currently in great form. It may be difficult for Bangladesh to beat Australia. Hope the match can be a competitive match. I will put Australia team ahead based on performance, I think Australia can win. Let's see which team can win by performing well.

Bangladesh batting has always been a concern that again got proved today against Australia. They were only able to get 140 runs against a side that has some of the best batters in T20 format. I don't think that Bangladesh bowlers are good enough to defend this target. It is an easy run chase for Australia as they need only 141 runs to win.

The Bangladesh vs Australia match is temporarily suspended at the moment due to rain. If the Australian team shows a tendency to win very easily in today's match, maybe the Australian team will win against Bangladesh very soon. Australia team will be able to win today's match only by collecting 41 runs from 52 balls, although Bangladesh team did not bowl very well in this match due to which they could not put Australia under pressure. But Australia team bowled well which put Bangladesh under pressure and Bangladesh team could not score many runs. Australia lost only two wickets as David Warner is still alive so he will surely reach the target of winning the team.

The competition between Bangladesh and Australia team will not be an old game, already Australia team is far ahead. Australia team is performing very strongly in this season, but this match they are batting with patience. If only Shakib Al Hasan and Tanjeed Hasan had performed well, there would have been a chance to win. In today's match Nazmul Hasan Shanto and Tawheed Hridiya performed well, unique batsmen did not perform well.

Against Australia, a target of 141 is simply not enough. Only Najmul Hossain Shanto and Towhid Hridoy made any significant contributions with the bat. And I am really worried with the lack of form from Soumya Sarkar and Litton Kumer Das in recent times. These two were the backbone of Bangladeshi batting in the recent past and their poor form is having an overall neagtive impact on the team. And apart from Mahedi Hasan, all the Bangladeshi bowlers received the stick today. Taskin Ahmed went for 22 runs from 8 balls.

In today's match, Australia team did DLS method to go against Bangladesh for 28 runs. Australia team gave a good bowling and batting performance in today's match due to which Bangladesh team was not able against Australia. Although some batsmen batted well for Bangladesh but most of the batsmen performed poorly in batting and bowling as well. Bangladesh lost 8 wickets for 140 runs but when Australia team came to bat their batting performance was amazing. Moreover, Australia team lost only two wickets in today's match and Australia's collection was 100 runs in 11 over 2 balls.Compared to today's match, Australia has the possibility of winning by a huge margin. But due to rain, Australia managed to win the match by DLS method by 28 runs and they are leading on points.

We knew that the Bangladesh team would lose against Australia. And since the performance of Bangladeshi batsmen was poor, it was also expected that Bangladesh would lose this match by a big margin. Had the pitch been bowling friendly the match would have been competitive and Bangladesh could have fought for the win. But Bangladesh team is weak as usual on batting friendly pitch.

Like the previous matches, two Bangladeshi openers Tanzid and Liton could not bat well today. Two experienced batsmen like Shakib and Mahmudullah could not bat well in this match. Had Shakib and Mahmudullah batted well, perhaps Bangladesh would have been able to add 20-30 more runs to the scoreboard.

These West Indies pitches are batting friendly. If you want to win, you must provide more than 200 targets. Because the chances of the bowlers bowling well on this pitch is very low. If they want to bowl well on this pitch, they must be experienced and also have the help of luck. I think so.

Bangladesh team collected only 140 runs in 20 overs. Given such a small target, the Bangladesh team will not be able to defeat a team like Afghanistan. However, I thought Bangladesh would lose by 100 runs against Australia. Australia would surely have given a target of around 220 if they had batted earlier. Bangladesh was not defeated by a big margin. Considering the current condition of the Bangladesh team, Bangladesh does not deserve to win even a single match in this round.

I saw two highlights a few hours ago as I was not in the condition to watch the full game. The first was one between IND & AFG, which was interesting as both the openers failed once again. The team management is still ignoring Jaiswal who could have been productive in a pitch that was supporting the batters. They are still going with Kohli who is known to be the best when he comes to bat in the 3rd position. In the end, the Indian bowlers did their job, not to forget Bhumrah who got the first wicket. It is now looking that Indian bowlers are doing much better than the batters.

The second highlight that I watched was between BAN & AUS, Australia was the favorite and they proved it after winning under the DLS, I somehow felt if the match had gone abandoned them BAN could have shared the points with AUS. That could have made them still in the tournament. The next game they will be playing will be with India and in the current situation they will not be able to win. If the game gets interrupted and BAN is not batting first then this game will be more interesting and it will surely check the potential of Indian bowlers.

Australia team won match against Bangladesh. Australia performance well and they were ahead of any other  team in that match. Australia won by 28 runs due to DLS Method and easy win to Australia team in game. The 44th match between Australia and Bangladesh was held at sir Vivian Richards stadium. This time Bangladesh lost and before start this round Bangladesh performed very great and win all games. Bangladesh are known for their resilience and spirit on the field. The team dedication and hardwark shine through making team a force to be reckoned with. Australia won the toss first before start of this match. David Warner is a very strong man. The best batting performance Australia man team displayed by David Warner scored 53 runs and 35 balls hitting 5 fours and 3 sixs. Australia  chased 100 runs and due to raim match was stopped and Bangladesh lost match total runs 140 runs. It is a very disappointed things that Bangladesh lost the match.

You're totally reasonable here because we have so many matches that it is difficult to watch them live on the TV screen. Just now the match between England and South Africa is in progress.

In the start of the England innings they have to search a very good start then it helps the other players and also it helps to put pressure on the South African team. Till now they are unbeaten but I think not after today’s match and as I hoped, they have done the same at the start. Phil Salt hit a six and now they have to make a partnership like this and have to make good runs in powerplay that helps to them very much later and also allow them to win this match against South African team.  :)

Bangladesh posted a small target of 141 runs to Australia excellent batting by Najmul Hossain Shanto he played innings of 41 runs. Australia team is dangerous in world cup and they simply chase the target that was cut due to rain affected. Pat Cummins excellent Bowling t20 world cup by taking 3 wickets hattrick its first hattrick in this tournament. Other bowlers Adam Zampa spell were also brilliant they took 2 wickets and Australia team easily defeated Bangladesh team by 28 runs. Bangladesh poor Start after lossing their first game of Super 8 against Kankors. I Think if Australia also to beat Afghanistan in the next game then Aus will be in the Semi final of the World Cup and I think the second team will be India after beating Bangladesh to qualify in the Semi's of this tournament.

ICC Men's T20 World Cup, 2024 - Super Eight - Match 5. England Vs South Africa. England won the toss and pushed to South Africa bat.Reeza  Hendricks and Quinton De Kock opening South African Innings. Two batters are playing very well. Opening partnerships are very good. Quinton De Kock played very good innings he made 65 runs off just 38 bolls. David Miller also played a killer innings he made 43 runs out of 28 boll, South Africa managed 163 runs from six wicked in  20. overs. England started to chase 163 runs, After playing 10 overs England just managed 60 runs and lost 3 wickets. Its quite tough for England to chase this target.

The match between south Africa and England is going on in very interesting moments.  South Africa have given a target of 163 runs, which looks like a big challenge.  Looking at England batting form  they will not be able to achieve this run target . Their batting line up lacks consistency and their top order batsmen have also been inconsistent.  In this match England will need hard work and good strategy if they want to win against south Africa .  But looking at the scenario of the match so far, it seems that South Africa has a strong grip, because south Africa palying very well in bowling side , south Africa bowling player at this time took 4 wickets by giving 62 run in 10 overs . There are still 100 runs to go and England need to score 10 run in each overs.

Yesterday, there was a match of Australia vs Bangladesh which was won by Australia and in this match, Mahmudullah out by Pat Cummins as Pat Cummins gave the ball onto the full off side with no touch of swing and Mahmudullah tried to hit a pull shot on the leg side to off-side ball which is easy to hit but for this timing is too important and position but both things were not good for Mahmudullah. And he was out when he hit to the ball from his end, the ball touched the lower part of the bat and came into the wickets and from this the stump were broken.

Pat Cummins did the hatrick and he was the Seventh man to make this record in the T20 World Cup.

In the end South Africa won the match by 7 runs. In almost every match of the World Cup, we see the same gameplay of South Africa. South African batsmen performance is not good but South African bowlers are performing well. And because of the excellent performance of the bowlers, South Africa was able to continue the winning streak. At the same time I would say South Africa is very lucky.

The performance of England's top order batsmen was very poor today. The match became competitive due to the pairing of Harry Brook and Liam Livingstone. Otherwise, England would have been defeated by a big margin today.

It was a contested match. Which team would win could not be predicted until the last over. An easy match for England ultimately resulted in defeat. Liam Livingstone won the match but England could not hold on until the end. Despite the fall of Liam Livingstone's wicket there was no major pressure in the match but the players could not score there. In the end they lost. Due to the lack of boundaries in the last over, they could not handle the run pressure and had to lose the match. 24 runs off 14 balls was not a difficult equation but the England team could not complete the equation.

Yes, now this match England against South Africa was finished with competitive and epic moments. Congrats to South Africa sqaud for again fantastic victory with amazing performance in match in all innings bat, bowl amd field. South Africa squad total played two matches in super Eight round and in both matches, their sqaud successfully secured victories with good stats and points. South Africa sqaud has begun this match with first batting inning and their performance in bat Inning was not much strong and impressive than bowling performance. If their bowlers did not display good strength in bowling inning England squad easily secured victory. This time both batters Salt and Buttler was unable to secure more scores and sadly both was upped out at just collecting few scores like total 28 scores. Harry Brook showcased impressive inning with unbelievable mid century with burden of best batter wickets. Quinton de Kock batter again fired on bowlers of England and collected 163 scores with secure with 7 scores.

Both team showed exemplary standards while playing against each other. It was hard for anyone to decide while watching the game as to who will win. The fielding and some of the catches taken by both team were unbelievable. They both were competitive and in the second half of the game England batters were doing everything correct but Keshav Maharaj again got the team back on the track to win against the defending champions.

It is never possible to put West Indies under pressure with the runs that the USA team has collected in today's match. Team USA scored only 128 runs, I think West Indies team will easily win today's match by a huge margin. While the West Indies bowled well today, the USA team did not score well and instead lost all the wickets. Anyway, today's match seems very beneficial for West Indies because they can easily meet this target of 129 runs. West Indies are batting to their advantage at the start of the match and with only 117 runs to collect they will go very easily as they have enough overs and wickets in hand.

You are right, South Africa Outstanding performance in this match and won by a just 7 runs against England. South Africa batted first and scored 163 runs by losing 6 wickets in the first inning of the match. While chasing down the target England only managed to score 156 runs in a loss of 6 wickets, just short 7 runs in the target. The Player of the Match is Quinton de Kock for his amazing batting performance scored 65 runs from just 38 balls. The bowling performance of South Africa win the match for his team especially spinner Keshav Maharaj picked 2 important wickets by giving 25 runs and Kagiso Rabada also picked 2 crucial wickets that helped his team to win the match.

Bangladesh vs India

The 47th match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup i.e. the Super Eight 1 group match will be held today. India and Bangladesh, two cricket-loving countries of South Asia, are facing each other in this match. In the first match of the Super Eight, the Bangladesh team was defeated by Australia by 28 runs. On the other hand, India defeated Afghanistan by 47 runs. Today these two teams are facing each other in their second match. As always the Indian team will be favorites in today's match as they are much stronger than Bangladesh and even their performance is much better in this T20 World Cup tournament.

Every player of Bangladesh team is inconsistent but every player of Indian team is consistent. Due to which they are doing good bowling and good batting performance in every match which is playing great role in their team's win.

You are right that USA didn't play well in this match and when you give a target of 128 runs, it is just a piece of cake for the opponent who are as strong as West Indies.
USA missed a lot of chances in this match and also in the previous matches too. In the match against South Africa When Quinton de Kock was out, the United States of America had a lead because, after him they could easily beat to the other players and have come back into the game. Yes, not easily taking wickets but still had a lead. He made very good score which was 70 in 40 ball and it is such a good partnership. He was able to hit a century too but the ball of Harmeet Singh that doesn’t allow him to six on it and he lost his wicket there but still he made good and his team won the match.

I have been watching South Africa's matches continuously, their performance is gradually getting very good.  And they are trying to prove themselves good and their decision is leading them to success.  I am very happy with South Africa.  Their performance was very poor earlier.  South Africa has defeated a team like England.  Congratulations to him for this win.  Although the target was not that difficult for England, but the South African bowler applied pressure, stopped the runs and took wickets and won the match.  England could have won this match but they showed weakness in this match and will lose the match.  If the South African bowlers did not work so hard and struggle, there was no pressure and the match would have been in England's name, but the South African team worked hard and struggled and luck also supported them and won the match.

I do not think this match between two neighbours would be that interesting as the match between RSA and ENG. This will again be a one sided affair in which the probability of India's win is high. The only concern is the opening pair of India as both Rohit and Kohli have been an utter failure. It is conclusive that the Indian team management will not try to make any changes. As SKY and Panth have been batting very good with Hardik, the management will like to maintain the same batting order.

The Indian bowling has been exceptional as every bowler has been getting wickets when the team needs it. The fielding has been good till now but it can be improved. I am certain this game will be again dominated by the Indian bowling attack than batting.

I truly agree and I too think India has to be worried about Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma because at this time, they can survive to it but not in playoffs and later when they have to face big teams. I think they have to change their opening pairs.

As we all know, before this World Cup Virat Kohli always playing on to the third number one down but now they change something which is bad. But still, when he is not in form so place doesn’t matter and Rohit too cannot play well but let’s see what will they do in the next matches. Point of concern is that  this World Cup, Virat Kohli's average is just 9.

There are many articles on the social media discussing this burning issue Should India start worrying about Rohit and Kohli? (https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/t20-world-cup-2024-should-india-start-worrying-about-rohit-sharma-and-virat-kohli-1440145)

This picture shows 100% true portrait of the current form of these two gentlemen's.  ;)

https://i.ibb.co/x5334k5/Rohit.jpg

This will be their last ride with T20 and as of my understanding and what is going on some media channels, this will be their last chance to be part of the T20 tournament. These two individuals will now play other formats after this ICC tournament ends.


He, as in Kohli is still in form but he is struggling with his new position. We will find it out after this match ends and if anyone knows him, he is known for the unexpected. As this is his trademark, that has been always discussed in any game against the neighbouring countries.


LOL! In your country, such images will get a maximum feed as the mentality is somewhat homo. That is what is called camaraderie and a few teams in the subcontinent have such friendships. Refresh your mind when you post such pic as you are sick!

South Africa gave the target of 164 runs to England excellent batting by Quinton de kock of 65 runs England team failed to chased the target they could made 156 runs 5th wicket partnership of 78 runs between Livingston and harry brook came close to England victory but unfortunately in last three overs England team could not made just 25 runs all credit goes to south Africa bowlers England team needed 25 runs in last 18 deliveries and south Africa bowlers defended these runs while six wickets in England hand. Anrich Nortje defended 14 runs in last over by taking main wicket of English batter herry brook there is not much difference in the run rates of South Africa and England teams if England team won against usa and west indies beat South Africa by a big margin then South Africa will be eliminated west indies and England will qualify for semi finals due to much position run rates.

Yes, India is the favorite team in today's match. Because both India's batting and bowling lines are much stronger than Bangladesh. Jasprit Bumrah bowled brilliantly in the last match, he took 3 wickets with 7 runs in 4 overs. Jasprit Bumrah has performed well in this tournament, hope he bowls well today as well. However, India have won all the matches so far in this tournament.

On the other hand, if we focus on the Bangladesh team, the current batting line of Bangladesh is very weak. Apart from Towhid Hridoy, no other batsman has performed well. Today it seems that changes can be seen in the Bangladesh XI. Tanzid Hasan has been dismissed for 0 in 2 consecutive matches, I think other players should be given a chance instead. India's batting line is very strong so Bangladesh's bowling line needs to improve. I think we will see competition in today's match. But I will put India team ahead today. Let's see which team wins today.

https://i.ibb.co/mqQsZj0/scrnli-6-22-2024-8-22-20-PM.png

The Bangladesh vs India match is going to be held shortly. Chances are very low that this match will be competitive. Indian team is very strong. On the other hand Bangladesh team is quite weak. Especially the performance of batsmen of Bangladesh team is not good. Bangladeshi batsmen can't do well against Australia either. Bangladeshi bowlers are unlikely to do well against India's experienced bowlers.

After winning the toss, Bangladesh captain SNazmul Hasan Shanto decided to field. Bangladeshi bowlers are in good form which is probably why Bangladesh decided to field. However, if India's batsmen can bat well today, the team will be able to provide a target of at least 180 runs today. Bangladesh will probably lose this match too.

I don't think Bangladesh has any chance of winning against a giant team like India. Even after being in the same group with Sri Lanka and South Africa, the Bangladesh team has been able to qualify for the Super Eight of the World Cup. This is Bangladesh's biggest achievement. Because even before the World Cup, we got to see the terrible performance of the Bangladesh team. So I don't expect anything better from this team. Even then, the Bangladesh team was able to achieve the Super Eight. I don't think Bangladesh will win even one match of this round.

Bangladesh won the toss and decided to field. India collected 71 runs after losing 1 wicket in 8 overs. If India set a target of 160+ then that would be enough for them to win. Because Bangladeshi batsmen are performing very badly in this World Cup.

https://i.ibb.co/T8MvVw8/scrnli-6-22-2024-9-17-06-PM.png
Source: Espncricinfo (https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/icc-men-s-t20-world-cup-2024-1411166/bangladesh-vs-india-47th-match-super-eights-group-1-1415747/match-photo)

You are right, that the Bangladeshi batting order is very weak. And the Bangladesh team was able to win the World Cup matches only because of the controlled bowling of the bowlers. Bangladeshi bowlers are in very good form. But as usual the performance of the Bangladeshi top order is very bad. Apart from Towhid Hridoy, no other Bangladeshi batsman has been able to consistently perform well.

Bangladeshi bowlers are bowling quite well today as usual. The pitch is batting friendly. And this is why I say Bangladeshi bowlers are doing well. India collected 83 runs in 10 overs and India lost three wickets. If the Bangladeshi bowlers can do any controlled bowling in the next 3/4 overs, then the Indian batsmen will be under more pressure. Rishab Pant collected 12 runs from 15 balls and Shivam Dube collected 2 runs from 4 balls.

This time, they cannot afford the loss of Virat Kohli in this match and every one wanted to see his good performance against Bangladesh. In this time, he was playing amazingly and I hope he will play like it for more time and lose his wicket after making 37 runs when the team scored high.

By the way, at this time, the run rate and strength of their runs are too good now just other players need to carry on then we are likely to see the Indian team winning once again and good scores by their team. Virat Kohli already hit a six and a four too while Rohit Sharma also playing very well and he also hit boundaries too and made 23 runs in only 11 balls.

https://i.ibb.co/fHjBYTK/virat.jpg

Team India scored a massive 196 runs today. And that's what we expected from India's batsmen. Even though the Bangladeshi bowlers were in good form, it was not too difficult to score 200+ runs on this batting friendly pitch. Tanzim Shakib and Mehedi bowled very well in today's match. Tanzim Sakib picked up two wickets at crucial moments. Otherwise India might have been able to collect 220+ today.

Both Kohli and Rohit batted well. Kohli scored 23 runs from 11 balls. Kohli returned to the dressing room with 37 runs. Besides, Rishab Pant and Shivam Dube got out with 36 and 34 runs respectively. Hardik Pandya played the biggest and most important innings. Pandya was unbeaten on 50 runs from just 27 balls.

Indian batsmen set a huge target of 197 runs. And I have never seen the Bangladesh team win by batting at such a big target. Moreover, it is much more difficult to collect 197 runs by batting against Indian bowlers. My guess is Bangladesh batsmen will collect around 140-150. Bangladesh cannot collect more than that.

Bangladesh team managed to collect only 39 runs in the first 5 overs of the power play. And already Bangladesh lost the wicket of Liton Das. I don't know why Bangladesh kept Liton in the squad for this World Cup. I have never seen Liton batting well in a single match. Along with Liton, Shanto's performance is also very bad. Bangladesh team would have become stronger if these two top order batsmen of Bangladesh could bat well.

Indian team has played  and  give the run target 196 with with lose of 5 wickets. In this match and Indian team will win this match easily because the batting and bowling of Indian team is dangerous and they can win the match against any team by scoring only 150 runs . We saw the Indian team match against Pakistan in which they made only 119 runs and they won the match but 6 runs. No one expect win of India but nobody knows India is India and Indian team is legendary team and they can apply pressure on any team at any time and team can lose their rhythm. In today match , Indian team will win easily by 50+ runs .Bumrah Will take Wickets in this match and I also like Arshdeep because he is quality bowler and his performance is IPL was also excellent.

Indian team played really well especially thier middle order where Hardik were continuously delivering decent number even after consecutive worst performance from thier top order while Dube did good but still unable to deliver a big impactful innings anyway just like you mentioned they easily defend 120 against paksitan but if you deeply observe pitch conditions them you will get the answers why thier opponent got dominance even after a very low target. Anyway Indian and south African has officially qualified Thier name for semifinals while Bangladesh and USA were officially eliminated but just to play his last matches in order to filled the formality. I think Bangladesh unable to Handel thier opponent and leak 30+ runs which turn the entire situation and thus they lose the match but here the main character for that defeat are middle order in my view because they can easily done it but unfortunately not.

I predicted that India would give a target of more than 180. India set a huge target of 197 runs today. And managed to win the match very easily. India won today by a big margin of 50 runs.

I have seen every last match of Bangladesh team. And in every match I saw bad batting by Bangladeshi players. With such bad batting, it is impossible to win against giant teams like India or Australia. These teams are very experienced and strong. So naturally Indian team won today.

Tomorrow is the match between Australia vs Afghanistan. Australia will definitely want to win this match to qualify for the next round. Australian players are also in very good rhythm.

Bangladesh team bowlers did not perform well in today game and Indian Batsman not top batsman like Kohli, Sharma etc middle Batsman showed brilliant effort and made good runs. H.Pandiya 6th batsman, he played very greatly and they hitted three long 6s shot in game with long distance. He complete half century and all overs played and he hitted four 4s and three 6s. S.Dube also played brilliantly but he was dismissed after scoring 34 runs in 24 balls and he hitted three 6s. Their bowlers were also very dangerous and showing mind blowing effort in bowl and Kuldeep took down 3 wickets in 4 overs and also Bumrah and Arshdeep both bowled out 2 wickets each and stopped them for 146 runs. Congratulations India team to continuously win games.

Great win for India against Bangladesh. 196 runs is definitely a big score in T20 cricket which is definitely difficult to chase. Moreover, small teams cannot easily show such performance in big events. I thought from the beginning of the game that India will win this match. Hardik Pandya's innings was excellent even though the rest of India's teammates did not perform so well in the match. His score of 50 off 27 balls kept the team in a credible position. One of the good things about the India team is that if one member of the team does not perform well, the other can fill the gap. As Suryakumar Yadav contributed the most to win a match but even if he had no contribution today, that gap has been filled. The team members of a strong team are in a position where some take responsibility for the team.

Afghanistan created a history by beating Australia for the first time! None of us here in the forum might have expected a big upset like the one we witnessed today. Australian team were the favourite to win against Afghanistan but the Afghan bowlers were able to defend their target of 149 runs. They won by 21 runs difference and now the match between India and Australia will become important for Australia. If Australian team doesn't win then the NRR between Australia and Afghanistan will decide who goes to the semifinals. If Australia beats India then the calculation will be simple.

This match was a very important match for the Australian team because if they won this match then we are likely to see them into the Semi Final and it may confirmed that India and Australia are going into the Semi Final to play it but after this loss, things are not easy for the Australian team and as you said, they have to beat India in order to qualify.

https://i.ibb.co/W644GPX/Afganistan.jpg

Also I don’t know but I think that once again we will see that Gleen Maxwell moments when last time he faced to the Afghanistan team and hit two centuries in a single match. Now, have to see what will happen in the next match for Aussies. Today we also saw the difference between Kingstown ground and that Indian ground where we have seen the greatest match ever between Afghanistan and Australia.

Yes, I didn't think Afghanistan would beat a strong team like Australia today. Afghanistan set a target of 149 which was not a tough target but the Australian batsmen were all out before the allotted overs. Australia's bowling line was good, but Australia's batting was very poor. Australia's opening batting David Warner and Travis Head both batted badly, except for Glenn Maxwell, no other batsman could bat well.

Afghanistan take a step forward in the race for the semi-finals after defeating Australia. If India can beat Australia and Afghanistan can beat Bangladesh then Afghanistan will qualify for the semi finals.  It may be difficult for Afghanistan to beat the Bangladesh team. Let's see in the end which 2 teams from Super 8 Group 1 can reach the semi-finals.

Well played, Afghanistan team. This is just beyond imagination. The Australia team looked very strong in the super 8s. But this mighty team has been defeated by this young Afghanistan team. We need to praise the openers along with the bowlers for their amazing bowling. Yes, special mention to the captain of the Afghanistan team; he did the best captaincy of his whole life. Now it will be fun to see, who will qualify with India for the Semi Finals from this group.

For the first time in t20 history, the Afghanistan team beat mighty Australia and created history this is very big win for Afghanistan team. Afghanistan opener Gurbaz and Ibrahim make a partnership of 118 runs  which helped them to post a good score of 148 runs this target was enough for the Afghanistan team to defend and they did it. Afghanistan team bowling can destroyed any team batting line up. Australia team while chasing 105/5 in 14 overs and they needed 44 runs on last 36 balls Maxwell supported their team to close a victory but when Gulbadin Naib dismissed Maxwell i think this was the turning point for the Afghanistan team. All credit goes to Gulbadin who took four important wickets of Australia betters including Maxwell, Stoins, tim David and pat Cummins their middle order was destroyed by Gulbadin naib Now all eyes of the Afghanistan team is on the Australia vs India match because India's win over Australia will help the them to qualify for next round in case of Afghanistan beat Bangladesh in last match of super eight.

Australia always makes a comeback from minor set back and wins the an ICC tournament. Atleast this is what has been happening under the captaincy of Cummins. I skipped the live telecast as I was certain that Australia will easily win the match. I am suprised and confused to understand why did they not bat first after winning the toss, knowing that the pitch was slow spinner friendly. They messed it up when they allowed Afghanistan to bat first.

Both Afganistan openers did play very well as they were the ones who contributed mainly to the target. Afghanistan batting was always a problem and that to the middle order. Moreover they crumble when it is a pressure game but in this match they had the luxury to play slowly that they did and got a decent target on the scoreboard.

Afghanistan bowling has improved a lot in the past years and they utilized this opportunity to create a history and a big upset in a T20WC-2024. I can foresee that Australia might not be able to make it through to the semifinals. Interestingly in the group 2 there are two teams that are fighting to get through and they are ENG and the WI.

I have the same feelings too, Still cannot believe how it could be happen. :o

Now, from this day never underestimate the Afghanistan team. I don’t know if it seems that they could win the World Cup but if in the final match, they meet with the Indian team then their chances will be low if this happen. But still, they are fully confident for the next match because they beat to the Australia and now Bangladesh will not play comfortably against them. What a peak the Afghanistan team but they have not won a World Cup so maybe this time, the trophy's waiting for them. Let’s see who will take over with the trophy.

Afghanistan kept their semi-final dreams alive by defeating Australia in today's match. If the latter can win against Bangladesh by a huge margin, then they definitely have a chance to enter the semi-finals. But according to the run rate, if Australia can win the next match against India, they will enter the semi-finals. Australia have a better chance of entering the semi-finals than Afghanistan. But Australia must beat the Indian team otherwise they will never enter the semi-final and it is very difficult to beat India. So if Australia loses against India in the next match then Afghanistan can definitely enter the semi-finals if they win against Bangladesh.

Afghanistan team's semi-final is still not guaranteed but they have hope. They have a good win against Australia in today's match which is why they still have dreams of reaching the semi-finals. Afghanistan team's next match will be against Bangladesh. If they win that match and if Australia loses the match against India, Afghanistan team is almost certain to reach the semi-finals. The current performance of Bangladesh team seems that Afghanistan team will easily win against Bangladesh. But if unfortunately Bangladesh team wins against Afghanistan then their dream will be shattered.

But Afghanistan's run to the semi-finals will go through many equations as they will have to wait to see if Australia will lose against India.

Indian coaches did a lot of hard work on middle order of Indian team. Before five years, the middle order of Indian team was not good but now they are in good form and saw matches in which middle order of India made max runs. But In champion trophy of 2017 , we saw India was looking in good form and they were favorite for the champion trophy but they lose the final against Pakistan very badly and one sided. We saw World Cup of 2023 in which Indian team was also favorite and played final match against Australia but lose the final. That are stats ,we can estimate the team which is stronger but can't give surety of any team to win the World Cup. Indian cricket is top and they are doing well but Rohit Sharma can't handle the pressure in final match . If India played semi final against England team , England could win this match and  Indian team could be out of the tournament.

I was shocked by today's match. Afghanistan beat a team like Australia. It must be accepted that Bangladesh can be defeated by Afghanistan very easily. But the question is if you lose by how much, will Afghanistan's dream last?

Meanwhile, India is the strongest team in this World Cup. Beating India is difficult but not impossible. If Australia beats India by a big margin of runs or wickets then Australia's semi-final semi-final is confirmed.

But it doesn't feel good to anyone in this World Cup. Who is losing whom and what is happening is not understood.

England must win today's match but United States is a good team.

Remember the first match the USA played with South Africa? He (Quinton de Kock) had a catch out when against a bowler he tried to hit a good shot and for this, he moved the bat into any direct and direct goes to the boundary but a fielder of the United States of America named Shayan Jahangir came and easily took a catch of Quinton de Kock.

By the way, the catch was not easy but still as he picked, it seemed for him but for any other fielder it could be hard to catch. However, like this, they stopped Quinton de Kock to hit a century against them. It was bowled by Harmeet Singh and the ball was caught by Shayan Jahangir.

England must win today's match against the strong USA. England must win against the USA if they want to confirm their semi-final match. USA is a young team but they are very strong compared to many other old teams. So it can be said with eyes closed, that the United States will not leave England today. England's survival will be fought today. The game will be very enjoyable for everyone.

England is ready to go into the playoffs but still the South African team can beat them and make their team place into the playoffs but let’s see what will happen here. This time, the openers make the game best. But we are seeing more runs from Jos Buttler and at this time, he is very near to hitting his fifty.
On the other side, Phil Salt is just making the ball as single or dots playing like ODI but Jos Buttler playing amazingly and the man of the match award is waiting for him, I hope he will finish the match and will not be out.
England will surely with this match by a big margin getting their NRR to a very good level.

ICC  T20 World Cup, 2024 match Aus Vs Afg. very exciting match.  Australia won the toss and elected to field. Afgen batter Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran strat very good innings both make fifty plus runs. Australia's fielding was also very poor this match they dropped several catches missing some boundaries. Afghanistan managed 148 runs in six wickets of twenty overs. Australian bowlers try to control bowling. Pat Cummins takes three wickets. Australia started to chase this target, but they lost wicket very early. Travis Head made zero David Warner also made three runs off eight balls. only Glenn Maxwell made 59 runs of 41 balls. Australia all out 127 19.2 overs. Afghanistan made very good won.

Bangladesh won only one series against Australia and that T20 series was held in Mirpur. Moreover, Bangladesh has not been able to defeat Australia in T20 in any international tournament. Today, however, the opposite of this equation did not happen as Australia easily won against Bangladesh in today's match. Having seen the batsmen of both teams batting and seeing the bowlers deliver these two things, as far as I feel there was nothing special for the bowlers on the wicket and Bangladesh batsmen should have done better there. If Bangladesh could have taken the target of 180 or 190 runs with the batting line-up of Australia then this match might have been a competitive match but it was not like that.

England's performance in today's match was something to watch, I am really happy to see today's game. Team USA scored 115 runs for the loss of 10 wickets, and their game was not good at all today. But England team showed their strong performance against the USA team today to win by 10 wickets which was very interesting. Jos Buttler has batted with tremendous responsibility to take the team to the semi-finals.
Jos Buttler / Philip Salt partnership -- 117 Run
Player of the match, Adil Rashid

Perhaps no one was prepared for such an outcome in this match. Everyone considered Australia as the favourite. Because Australia is a very strong team and is in good form now. But the performance of Afghanistan players surprised everyone. Afghanistan team won the match by 21 runs.

I did not bet on this match. I think a lot of gamblers lost their money in this match. Everyone considered Australia as the favorite in the match. Had the pitch been completely batting friendly, Australia might have won the match. But the pitch helped the bowlers a lot. The Australian batsmen could not stand against the bowling attack of Naveen Ul Haque and Gulbadin Niab. These two bowlers picked up 7 wickets for just 40 runs in 8 overs. Both these bowlers were the main heroes of Afghanistan's victory.

Finally few teams are almost qualified for semifinals and England is in one of them after that crazy victory, it's true that Australian open gates for them while qualifying for super 8 when they are in danger of elimination but now they haven't any fear of emanation while few teams like Australia and south Africa are on the verge of danger because Australian has to face indian and let suppose if they lose they will be out and Afghanistan will easily won thier last match but indian doesn't then Australia will be successfully out of that trouble situation while same situation is with south Africa in his last match where they will face west indies and if they lose they will be out. Anyway according to today match USA scored a very low target and England win it with 10 wickets in hands and 10 overs left which really help England to be out of trouble situation of south Africa and West Indies. Let's see who will qualify that semifinals stage

First I want to congratulate England sqaud for successfully qualification in semi final match and in today match against USA squad, England squad defeat USA sqaud by achieving low quality defeating target which was set by USA sqaud in 49th match. Chris Jordan bowled total 2 and half overs and in these overs he picked up total 4 batter wickets of USA sqaud include main members of USA squad. England squad bowlers first restricted them at low Defeating target and after in batting inning, USA bowlers did not face the impressive performance of England batter and simply emerged victorious and reached on Semi final game. Phil Salt and Jos Buttler both were enough this small Defeating target and Jos Buttler performance was unbelievable and unbeatable in match was yh 83 scores.

England's batsmen played brilliantly against USA's weak bowling attack. Jos Buttler's brilliant batting has won the England team very easily. Buttler was unbeaten by collecting 83 runs off just 38 balls. Buttler hit 6 boundaries and 7 over boundaries. And because of the big win, the England team has progressed in the NRR. So the England team has already qualified for the next round.

I am looking forward to tomorrow's South Africa vs West Indies match. South Africa team is very lucky in this World Cup. Almost every match in South Africa was very competitive. And the South African team won by a narrow margin. On the other hand, the performance of West Indies team players is quite erratic. So it is difficult to predict which team will win this match. Both teams have equal chances of winning.

Since Australia match with Afghanistan and when Maxwell alone scored 200 runs.  Made and won the match.  Since that day I have been watching Maxwell's performance and have never seen it again.  The performance of this bat seemed to be losing at that time but Maxwell showed his good performance and scored 200 runs to destroy the pride of Afghanistan.  And in this match, Bangladesh is competing with Australia.  Which is the defeat of Bangladesh.  Australia is very strong.  And in this match too they have given a target of 140 which is very easy for them.  The Australian batsmen scored 100 runs in 11 overs and with the help of DSL, Australia won the match even if it did not go in their favour, they still had 9 overs in their favour.  The Australian bowler stopped the runs with good bowling and took wickets and got an easy target for his batsmen and his batsmen also scored runs with good pace early with good hits.  Congratulations to Australia for this win and the Bangladesh batsmen should take pride in their performance.

The match that West Indies team is playing against South Africa in today's match is great. West Indies did not have a good batting performance today losing 8 wickets for 135 runs, West Indies did not collect relatively many runs in this match. And today's match is very important for both teams, the team that can win the semi-final will play so both teams are very excited now. If the South African team has lost 2 wickets to meet the target of 136 runs, they are currently under severe pressure. 15 runs in 2 overs 2 overs game already off, match delayed due to rain If today's match is played after rain, South Africa will definitely be under pressure. West Indies team has a good bowling line so this few runs can put pressure on the South Africa team, it is still not possible to say for sure which team will win today.

Russel was insane to go for that cheeky one run. He was hitting with great timing. That direct throw is too costly for Westindies. Now they have to take two more wickets quickly after rain to get back in the match.

Today’s match between Australia vs India will be the actual knockout match. If India wins today, then it will be very hard for Australia to qualify for the playoffs. And if Australia beats India by a good margin and in the next game Afghanistan beats Bangladesh by a good margin, then India will be eliminated from the World Cup. Hence, I am sure no one will miss today’s thrilling game. Moreover, India also has to take revenge for the ODI World Cup final match from the Aussies. So let’s see who leads the race now. Let me know about your predictions also.

In the last World Cup, India lost to Australia at home ground. It was the Indian team's regret that after playing well throughout the tournament, they lost the final match against Australia and missed out the trophy. I believe they will not miss this opportunity. On the one hand they will try to win through today's match and on the other hand they will avenge the loss in that match. The match will be very competitive. If the Indian team has a big rival in this tournament, it will be Australia. Moreover, there is no option to win this match. According to the prediction I think India team will not be eliminated from this tournament.

Congratulations England for qualifying for semi-final of World Cup after winning the match by 10 wickets against United States. The United States scored a low target of 115 All out while batting first. Chris Jordan bowling well picked 4 important wicket by just giving only 10 runs in this spell and Adil Rashid also picked 2 crucial wickets by giving 13 runs and helped England to all out the United States Under 120 runs. England Outstanding batting performance chase down a target of 117 runs without loss of any wicket in just 9.4 overs of the match. I don't understand why Adil Rashed got the player of the match when he picking only 2 wickets but Chris Jordan picked 4 wickets. anyhow England is first team in his group to qualify for the semi-final because its Net run rate is almost + 2.0 while South Africa Net run rate is low.

Now we have few hours left in this big game which is important for the Australia with India is already having position for going into last four with winning their first two games against Bangladesh and Afghanistan and Australia is still leaking their wounds after losing a game against Afghanistan with rain is threatening for the washing out which could be not idea for the Australia after knock out of home team West Indies things are pretty interesting because we have new favourite India and South Africa with England can do magic as they are doing in recent time in white ball format.

There is no doubt two wins and strong NRR giving good advantage to India for having spot into last four as now we are looking for last team which could Afghanistan or Australia because both are having equal chance, but Afghanistan is favourite because they can win against Bangladesh without any problem, but they need to be had good run rate as well.

WI VS RSA

What a close game! Brilliant effort by WI to win the and the same goes to RSA. At one time it felt as if WI will win, Rabada and Yansen kept it cool and helped thier team to win in the end. RSA fielding felt not up to their standards they are known, it was like a casual day for them..

IND VS AUS

This match is important for Australia as if they lose then India will be playing against ENG in the semifinals. If they win then they need to defeat India by a good margin. If not then again they get eliminated from the WC. I am expecting another close game and again the opening pair of India are a big concern.

Australia's defeat to Afghanistan changed all the equations. Australia has a better run rate compared to Afghanistan, and that would mean that they should enter the semi-finals in case they defeat India at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium. But then defeating in-form India is going to be quite tough for Australia. Also, toss is going to be quite important. The team winning the toss would chose to field in all probability. From Group 2, semi-finalists are confirmed - South Africa and England.

India’s team can still be out of the Super 8s and will not be a part of the Semi final but it will happen if today Australia will win against India with a good margin means with at least 41 runs then Afghanistan beat the team of Bangladesh with 81 runs then no one is able to replace Australia and Afghanistan into the Semi final.

If this happens, which is very unlikely, then for the first time Afghanistan will play the Semi final match for the first time which is such a good thing for them. I think that Bangladesh has to give chance to Afghanistan to win this because then they will play semi final match for the first time.  :)

We witnessed an entertaining exit of West Indies from this world cup as South Africa break the shackles and storm into last four of this mega event with three wickets win into their last game of super eight Roston Chase done good work with bat and ball but fail to give his team much-needed win in this important game and Tabraiz Shamsi done good job for his team as he takes three wickets and give his team win with spot into last four which is important for them as well.

After winning toss having bowl first was good decision by South African captain, and they have done good job in bowling which helps them for having win and spot into semifinal of this T20 World Cup now time for them to prepare themselves for this big game which is coming in few days with now we have just two games left in super eight.

No doubt, that match was interesting to watch and till the last over, we never knew who will be the winner.

---

In the other match, the toss has happened and Australia won the toss and their captain clearly said to bowl first but if you know last time on 19th November when the Indian team lost the final match then on that time, the Australian team was doing bowl first and at the end they won the match. Don’t have to explain everybody but most of us know that. 
However, that was ODI and today we are going to see the T20I match and there are too much difference in ODI and in T20I format even the Australian captain is different too. The match has been started and already Virat Kohli has been out.

https://i.ibb.co/f2N0Rrq/toss.jpg

Today we are enjoying a high voltage match between India and Australia. In this match, the strong batting line-up of the Indian team performed very well as we got the proof in this match. However, in today's match, India's opening batsman ie the opening pair was not strong, they lost one wicket in just 6 runs.

The first thing I saw in this T20 world cup was that Virat Kohli returned to the pavilion without scoring any runs. However, another hard hitter batsman of the Indian team, Rohit Sharma, gave a brilliant innings of 92 runs off 41 balls. The captain of the Indian team led from the field today. The middle order batsmen of the Indian team were also in great form today, they all scored runs. Towards the end, Hardik Pandiya was completely on fire even played a scintillating innings of 27 off 17 balls. India scored 205 for five wickets today. It might be a tough score for Australia if their batsmen don't bat well.

Not this time and not a bad thing for the team of India that in the start of the game, they lost Virat Kohli and now in the full match, we didn't miss his shots and runs but this time Rohit Sharma took the charge to the Australian team and he was the main player too. but also a very good advantage here for India. Against Hazlewood he was not able to hit shot and after playing the five balls, he lost his wicket and out.

Now, their next target is to defend these 200+ runs and their bowlers are fully capable of doing so. I don't see how the Australia will chase this score. I think it is next to impossible.

ICC Men's T20 World Cup, 2024 - Super Eight match India Vs Australia. It's a very high-voltage match. Australia wants to win this match After losing of Afghanistan match. Australia won the toss and elected to field first. But their decision is quite not right to prove Indian batter. However, Virat Kholo went without scoring. Rohit Sharma plays very good innings. made a brilliant 92 runs of just 41 balls 7 boundaries and 8 over the boundary of his innings,  India put 205 runs to target Australia. Australia lost their first wicket already playing just 22/1 (3.0). Indian team winning chance more than Australia.

The Indian team had a good start but their finish was not as expected. Although 205 runs definitely big score in T20 cricket but the state of play looks like India could very well have won this match if the score could have been increased. India did not score comparatively in the last 2 overs. If they scored consistently, this match could have been over 225 runs though this score is not secure as the opponent is the big one in t20 cricket. However, looking at the current state of the match, it is not possible to predict who favor the match. But Australia is playing great. They will certainly try to win this match but it remains doubtful whether it will happen.

India team Shivam Dube's performance did not live up to my expectations. On the other hand, I am not very happy with Hardik Pandya's batting. Because he finished his game with only 2 6 boundaries and 1 4 boundary from 17 balls. The amount of ball consumption of these two has increased. However, since both teams are strong, those who won the toss and decided to chase will have a little more chance.

Team India has given a big target. 205 runs is a very big target. But since the pitch is completely batting friendly, even after collecting 205 runs, it cannot be said for sure that India will win. Because Australia has the ability to collect more than 200 runs on this pitch. However, after losing Warner's wicket in the first over, the Australian team was under pressure. But at the moment the Australian team is in a very good condition. At the end of 8 overs, Australia collected 83 runs after losing 1 wicket. Australia need 123 runs in 12 overs to win. Travis Head remained unbeaten on 40 and Mitchell Marsh scored 35.

Indian bowlers are not able to bowl as well as Australian bowlers. Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav's bowling is somewhat controlled. Besides, every bowler is giving lots of runs today.

Indian team showed excellent batting they set huge target of 206 runs against Australia brilliant batting by team India especially Rohit Sharma he played 92 runs innings on just 41 runs balls which helped team India to post a good target Australian team failed to take wickets early which made the score 200 plus from Australia side josh Hazlewood bowling brilliantly gave only 14 runs in 4 overs. Australian team is on the way to chase they are 99/2 Australia need 107 runs on the last 60 balls trevis head with 54 runs on the crease the way Australia team playing was helpful for them to chase the target Australia team needed to save their wickets to put pressure on indian bowlers this is must win for Australia team to qualify for semi final.

South African team performance is best in the T20 World cup. South African team played very well in the last and qualified for Semi final . The South African team lose the series badly against West Indies team but In the World Cup they won the match against West Indies. West Indians team performance was going as comparison to last World cup because they did not qualify in the last World cup but in this World Cup they made a position in super 8. That is bid thing fir West Indian cricket but they have to focus on partnership building because any team can't win the match without making partnership and that is big weakness of West Indian players. They only hit a six and they only want six and big sixes. That is big fault.

India wins comfortably against Australia and marches into the semifinals. They will be playing against England on the 27th. Kohli gets duck while Hitman gets near to his century but lose his wicket. Again an impressive bowling by the Indian team, conditions were not that simple still bowlers played an important part.

For Australia it will become easy if Afghanistan lose to Bangladesh. If not then Australian team gets eliminated and Afghanistan goes into the semifinals.

Australia team managed to collect 181 runs in 20 overs. Australia lost by 24 runs. This match was very important for Australia. Because the Australian team was also defeated in the last match against Afghanistan. Qualifying for the next round is unlikely for Australia.

Rohit Sharma's aggressive batting helped India set a target of 206 runs. Rohit Sharma collected 92 runs. Australia started well but after the loss of the wickets of Travis Head and Marsh, none of the Australian batsmen could bat well. Australia lost by 24 runs. Now if the Afghanistan team loses against Bangladesh by a big margin then Australia has a chance to qualify for the next round.

Yeh the unexperienced and surprising defeat really shocked Australian and I think they were not ready for such situation and to be honest no one expects from Afghanistan that they will create such trouble. But anyway now last ball of India vs Australia has been done and officially india beat Australian and not only open door of semifinals for Afghanistan but kicked Australia out of the tournament and such things is happened I think after a long time from team India against Australian in such high level of ICC events and I think here the main hero is Indian captain sharam because he set momentum especially in starting over again starc where he brutally smashed him and from there they get dominance till last ball. I was expecting a strong fight back from Australia but unfortunately they unable and hence if Afghanistan win we will have two semifinalist from group A and that will be Afghanistan and India

South Africa won this game by  3 wickets  with 5 balls. South African win all matches in super eight round. South Africa team playing this game with amazing performance. They showed impressive performance in the previous game and are maintaining their from in this match as well. I hope they will play better in the next match. Their hard work and determination truly paid of in this match. South Africa won by total 124 runs in 20 overs. West India  lost this game by DLS method and made 135 runs set this target and lost the game. Roston chase is a very talented player and also a player of match . The 50th match between west India and South Africa was played at sir Vivian Richards stadium. The best batting performance in the West India man team was by Roston chase scored 52 runs and 42 balls hitting 3 fours and 2 sixs. From my side and very sorry for west India. He was also lucky that day for South Africa. The previous matches the played were fantastic.

The luckiest team in this year's World Cup is South Africa. We have seen this team very lucky since the group stage. South Africa won by just 1 run against Nepal. Bangladesh won against it by just 4 runs. It was also very difficult for South Africa to win against the Netherlands. Only the South African team got an easy win against Sri Lanka.

South Africa also won the Super Eight matches against USA and England by narrow margins. Also won against West Indies only because of great bowling by the bowlers. If the West Indies team could have added 20 more runs to the scoreboard, South Africa would have lost the match.

Qualifying for the next round of giants like Australia and West Indies is completely uncertain. West Indies have no chance of qualifying for the next round. On the other hand, Australia's fate depends on Bangladesh vs Afghanistan match. South Africa has a great chance of becoming world champions this year.

The Bangladesh team did a good bowling performance in this match, but could not take wickets from the start. Although today's match is famous for its bowling pitch, the ball enters the ground and swings not in favor of the players. Now the tiger players of Bangladesh team must focus more on the fall of wickets, the players of Afghanistan team have performed for a long time by protecting their cricket.
In this way, if the players of the Afghanistan team continue to collect runs, then the Bangladesh team will fail to win. Mostafizur Rahman Taskin Ahmed these two are doing very good bowling performance in today's match.

Bangladesh's bowling line is good today. Afghanistan's batsmen have not performed well enough. No wicket fell till Afghanistan's 10 overs, but in the end Afghanistan could not set up a big target. Afghanistan collected 115 runs losing 5 wickets in the stipulated over. However, the target of 116 runs was not big enough. But Bangladesh is under a lot of pressure after losing consecutive wickets. Shakib Al Hasan, Tanzid Hasan and Najmul Hossain Shanto three batsmen got out quickly and put Bangladesh team under a lot of pressure. If wickets continue to lose like this, it will not be possible for Bangladesh to win. So far Bangladesh has collected 31 runs in 3.2 overs with the loss of 3 wickets. Rain has started again, once the rain stops at the scheduled time, the game will start again. Litton Das and Soumya Sarkar will have to put up a good partnership when the game resumes after the rain stops, otherwise it will be difficult for Bangladesh to win.

Afghanistan scored 115 runs for 5 wickets, but Bangladesh scored 7 wickets for 92. So how did Bangladesh play well?  Now Bangladesh will win the match easily but there is no benefit in winning this match now. Bangladesh used to have a lot of hype for playing cricket but now they don't have any hype anymore because they can't play like before. I have nothing to say about Bangladesh's game because the quality of their game has gone down.

The most tensed game of cricket was played between Afghanistan and Bangladesh, till the last over no one would have any idea which team will win. In the end, it was Afghanistan who has now created history by entering the semifinals of the T20WC for the first time. There was a lot of rain interruption and a few controversies but these Afghan players were able to handle the pressure and win the game. It felt sad to see that only Liton Das was trying his level best to win the game but other Bangladeshi batters were not able to support him. If he would have been batting in the last over then the game would have ended differently.

Presently it is very difficult to introduce yourself as a Bangladeshi fan. Cricket fans of any country have never been so disappointed as the cricket fans of Bangladesh are constantly disappointed. Bangladesh lost the series to America but it still felt bad for us then we encouraged the team and expected the team to do well in the main phase of the World Cup tournament. But the team did not perform as per our expectations. Bangladesh needed probably 110 plus runs in 10 overs to qualify for the semi-finals of the World Cup today, I think it's very easy. 10 wickets in hand, including seven professional batsmen.  If these seven professional batsmen had scored 10 to 15 runs, still Bangladesh would have won this match. Their irresponsible performance saw them lose their dream of qualifying for the semi-finals in the end against Afghanistan. It's certainly a shame and it's not an easy thing to accept as a cricket fan.

I think there was no chance for Bangladesh to qualify for the semi-finals even if they won this match because they had a low run rate. I think the Australian team and fans will be more disappointed on Bangladesh's loss because if Bangladesh had won the match, then Australia team would have qualified for the semi finals.

For Bangladesh, this World Cup wasn't a great journey but the good thing is that they qualified for the Super 8s. When you see teams like New Zealand and Pakistan unable to make it to Super 8s, being a fan of Bangladesh, you should feel a bit satisfied with the performance as compare to these teams which were eliminated earlier in the tournament.

Shanto: Gave up hope of making semis after losing early wickets (https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/bangladesh-gave-up-hope-of-making-semis-after-losing-early-wickets-says-shanto-1440863)

Bangladesh team had a great chance in this match today to enter the semi-final match, because I never imagined that the Bangladesh team would perform so poorly. Liton Das has performed quite well from the opening till the end of the game. But the rest of the unique players have performed very badly, but if Liton Das had an aggressive batting performance from the beginning, there was definitely no possibility of going all out. But Naveen Ul Haq, the bowler of the Afghanistan team, made it possible for the Afghanistan team to enter the semi-finals. 
But if Liton Das could have taken the strike at the end of the game, he would have shown a big change. But these two batsmen Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman could not hit the ball with the bat.

In today's match which was played at Kingstown between Afghanistan and Bangladesh, it was won by Afghanistan and this is such a big achievement for them. Not only this but also when they gave defeat to Australia, New Zealand and other big teams so to win against Bangladesh was not big thing for them.

Now I think it is the best team ever that Afghanistan have right now. Afghanistan is no longer counted as a poor performance team or a new team and a small team. Now, we will see them in the WC semi-final match directly.

All the matches of Super 8s have been finished but now the semi final lineup is decided. Here are the matches.

https://i.ibb.co/gMqc1k8/match.jpg

The fact that Australia couldn't qualify for the semi-finals is quite surprising. Although they start the the major ICC tournaments in a dull manner, they always make up for that in the later stages. But this time they couldn't recover from the defeat that they suffered against Afghanistan. They needed to win against India, but then their bowlers leaked tons of runs and in the end the target was outside their range. Anyway, congratulations to Afghanistan. Hard work always pays off in the end.

I agree with you. When we live in country we have affection with the country and we want to win against any country either we are watching cricket or football.  Bangladeshi team played very bad in this World Cup . The same was happen with Pakistani team when Pakistani team could not chase only 120 runs against India. The situation was in the control of Pakistan team but middle order flopped and Pakistan lose the match and Pakistan could not qualify for super 8 dur NRR. Pakistani lose against USA and we see the reply of Pak vs India match in the form of BAN and Afghanistan.Afghanistan bowled very well and they have identity on International level due to their top bowling. We saw Afghni cricket in last 3 to 4 years, change happened.

I thought the Australia team was stronger than the Indian team.  But in this match India has proved that they are not less than anyone.  If we talk about Afghanistan Afghanistan has motivated itself like I have never seen anyone.  First Afghanistan lost a lot of matches and later they won the matches by increasing their pace by scoring runs with good perform.  And I was very impress with his decision.  Indian batsmen gave a good and big target in 20 overs which I thought was easy for Australia but Indian bowlers put such pressure that Australia could not meet the target and lose the match.  India team is also showing good perform now.  They also defeated the England team by a match.  Australia are not doing well this time and have lost most of the matches.  They should come in their first form.  If Australia kept their pace the target of 205 could have been achieve but the Australian batsmen did not work hard and the luck did not favor them and they lost the match.

Yes in recent match of ICC Men Super Eight Round competition we see a big match of Afghanistan sqaud against Australia sqaud and their victory was really superb and unpredictable. With this victory against Bangladesh sqaud, this was not a big deal for them and they defeated many big sqauds like New Zealand, Australia. This was the great achievement of Afghanistan sqaud and their performance surprised to all other squad and cricket lovers. In Bangladesh match, Afghanistan sqaud got a victory with 8 scores because of DLS method. Their bowling performance was unbelievable and unbeatable in match and despite  low Defeating target, Afghanistan squad bowlers delivered an amazing performance in bowling and defeated Bangladesh batter in ground. Both these bowlers Rashid Khan and Naveen-ul-Haq displayed very impressive strength in game and both picked up same numbers of wickets 4 each  bowlers. Now all Super eight round matches was finished and Thursday both semi final matches will be played hope this sqaud will perform same like these matches and reserve position in final match.

Bangladesh team fought hard but unluckily to won the match Bangladesh team had to complete the target in 13th overs but they could not won the match and lost by 8 runs DLS method. 115 runs target was not big for Bangladesh but they could not chase Bangladesh team needed 12 runs on last 12 balls but excellent bowling by naveen ul haq who took two wickets in second last over. Liton das is stand on non strikers end if he is on strike then result will be different. Credit goes to Afghanistan team who played brilliant cricket throughout the tournament and qualified for semi final on his own power they did not dependent on others Afghanistan team will play first semi final against south Africa

In short, this World Cup is near its end and it is just a different World Cup and the United States of America hosted good but with bad conditions (rain and stuff) but it is still a better host than India in 2023 when Australia won the World Cup then they all moved there and dropped him alone into the stage and Modi gave the trophy to him in a very bad mood, that is why it is better than some hosts.

ICC Men's T20 World Cup, 2024 - Super Eight match Australia vs India. Australia after losing the match of Afghanistan they need must win against India. Australia won the toss and elected to field first. Virat Kohli this World did not play very well this match he was out without scorning. Rohit Sharma played a very good innings he made 92 runs of 41 balls. Rohit Sharma also touch Pakistan's Babar Azam has touched the record for most wins as a captain. India set a target of 205/5 (20.0). Australia Couldn't get off to a very good start they lost earlier wicket of David Warner earlier. Australia manages 181/7 (20.0). India make a very good win.

Afghanistan team performed well in all previous matches and they is a very good team. They have won all the matches they played recently. The team members of Afghanistan are also very good they have worked very hard to win matches and their hard work has paid off.Bangladesh has lost their previous matches include this one and they need to work very hard.Afghanistan won this game by 8 runs. The 52nd match between Afghanistan and Bangladesh was held  at arnos Vale ground stadium. Afghanistan won the toss.  Rashid Khan for Afghanistan showed the powerful performance and deserved player of match trophy. Rahmanullah gurbaz is a very talented boy and he scored 43 runs and 55 balls hitting 3 fours and 1 sixs. Afghanistan have been outstanding match. Congratulations to Afghanistan for semi final game.

Yup! It is quite surprising as they have been winning most ICC tournaments for a couple of years. I guess they should have stuck with Cummins as the captain and they should have included new talents rather than going with the old talents. Afghanistan was never a favourite team but they again proved that they are better far better and emerging on the global cricketing nation board. Another team I should say is the US, they will become far better than the Afghan team in the next 3 to 4 years.

This is what BCCI and those Indian millionaires can achieve without even a single support from ICC. By the way, the Indian team is planning to go to Pakistan for the ICC Champions Trophy. There are a few conditions that I am sure the PCB would comply as it is all about the Indian team playing in Pakistan.

I agree with you. Rain is natural thing and that is is not is Man's control but USA is good host . But they made artificial wickets and there is no ground of cricket. After the cricket match , any other game can be play on that pitch. West Indian wickets are good wickets and we saw good matches on West Indian wickets. We want highest total in the match and we want more sixes and fours but we didn't see the long sixes and fours on USA wickets. We saw total between 100 to 120 and which team made 120 runs he was winner. Audience didn't like that.We saw India as a host and we heard a noise in the ground when Indian team lose the World Cup final. Indian public only want win and they don't want to lose the match . But win and lose is a part of game and no team could win every match.

No doubt the hard work and commitment by the Afghanistan team paid off well but tomorrow is a big match for them.
Tomorrow is a very important match which will play in between Afghanistan and South Africa, it is a semi-final that is why we are all have interest in it and it will played at Tarouba.

Everyone including me is very excited to see Afghanistan's first Semi-Final progress, don’t know why but I think it could be a hard match and Afghanistan win it tomorrow. Just imagine, if they win then we are unlikely to say Afghanistan is small team anymore, they have done such a good performance and their progress is very high in this World Cup. Have to wait for that match.

At least on paper, South Africa is the stronger side. But I would say that we should not write off Afghanistan. Afghanistan managed to beat Australia and Bangladesh, while South Africa avoided defeat to Nepal and Netherlands by a whisker. I hope that South Africa learnt their lesson from close encounters against the associate nations. If not, then it will give the Afghans another occasions to conduct earth-shattering celebrations, after the semi-finals tomorrow morning at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba. 

How about Indian chances against the England in the semi finals? For this we may need to peak in the history to see their previous performances and results.

Last time, when England and Indian team played against each other in the Semi-Final match then on that time, the Indian team lost that match by 10 wickets and England did not lose any single wickets. So, once again I hope history won't repeat itself and there is another one that in 2022, they were also unbeaten and until now in this World Cup, they are also unbeaten too, but now let’s see what will happen, the Indian team always lost the match after touching the win  :(

Just the wait of 1 or 2 days then we will see the greatest match ever and the revenge of the Indian team.  :)

Tomorrow we will watch two main matches of the tournament. Afghanistan vs South Africa at 1:30AM and India Vs England 3:30PM . I am very excited to watch these matches because these matches will be high voltage match and we will see high competition between four teams. India is stronger than England but we saw last World Cup in which India was much stronger than any other team but India could not win the World Cup. More chances are India will beat England but England team can also upset Indian team because Buttler is in full form and that player is equal to one team when he is in full form and he has capability to bend the match to their side.Afghanistan has more chances to qualify for final but South Africa could also performe in tomorrow match . Let see what happens.

If Bangladesh had somehow won this match then they might not have qualified for the semi-final and Australia would have qualified but if Bangladesh could have won this match within the first 12 overs then Bangladesh would have definitely qualified for the main stage of the semi-final.  

Basically it is wrong to expect so much from Bangladesh. There are some senior cricketers of Bangladesh who when asked about their performance they say that they win almost fifty to 40% matches in the entire tournament which is a big deal for them. When BCB president is asked, he always says that the target of Bangladesh is always the next World Cup. How can those whose plans are so small achieve anything big in a big tournament like the World Cup?

South Africa are experienced team and they are stronger than Afghanistan it is true. But I don't see any chance of underestimating the Afghanistan team at the moment. Afghanistan's players have already proved their mettle.

South Africa team has won most of the past matches because of the excellent bowling of their bowlers. South African batsmen's performance is not good. And South Africa won most of the matches by very narrow margins. On the other hand, Afghanistan's bowlers are also in very good form in this World Cup. Naveen ul Haque, Gulbadin Naib and Rashid Khan are very experienced bowlers for the T20 format. So I would say the chances of both teams winning the match are now 50-50. The Afghanistan team is in no way behind than  South Africa.

Against Netherlands, South Africa won with just 7 balls to spare. They were 12/4 at one point, but then Tristan Stubbs and David Miller rescued them. The against Bangladesh, they won by just 4 runs. The came the match against Nepal. South Africa managed just 115 runs, but foolishness from Nepali batsmen allowed them to walk away with 2 points. Nepal lost the match by just one run. And their performance showed hardly any improvement in Super8. They win against USA, but again only by a small margin. Victory margin against England was just 7 runs. Given all this, I would say that tomorrow's match is going to be close.

South Africa has played 7 matches in this World Cup so far. Of these, only South Africa have dominated and won the match against Sri Lanka. Besides, it was very difficult for South Africa to win every match. South Africa could not dominate even against weaker teams like USA, Bangladesh and Nepal. Even against Bangladesh and Nepal, South Africa were very lucky so they won.

We have to admit that the South African team is very lucky in this World Cup. If not for Lucky, they would not have qualified for the semi-finals. A number of T20 specialist batsmen are in the South African squad. Marakram, Miller and Klaasen have batted brilliantly in the IPL, but they have not been performing well in the national team jersey. That's why betting South Africa against Afghanistan seems too risky for me.

Well said. We saw the matches of South Africa against Bangladesh and Nepal on those matches the performance are so close. And since teams like Bangladesh and Nepal have been able to compete well with South Africa, I think this match with Afghanistan is not going to be easy for the South African team. And if they think that they can easily win this match with Afghanistan, then their situation can be like that of an Australian team.
Because the Afghanistan team has been performing brilliantly since the beginning of this year's T20 World Cup, they have lost only two matches so far, only against India and West Indies. Anyway, even after all these good performances I will not place any bets on this match because this match still seems very unpredictable to me.

Absolutely right, those who have bet on the Afghanistan team would be cursing themselves and they have shown a very unmatured performance today. Unfortunately, I also choose Afghanistan as a winner in this prediction contest [Free Entry] R7 Promotions Sponsored T20WC 2024 Prediction Pool and Discussion (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5498450.0) and lost important points.  :(

They have made a record of their lowest total for Afghanistan in the T20 International and that too in a World Cup Semi final.
Seeing the scorecard, the Afghanistan players would be cursing themselves and they have no clue as to what happened today.

Afghanistan's World Cup journey is likely to end here as Afghanistan were bowled out for just 56 runs against South Africa. It is almost impossible to win against a team like South Africa after getting all out for 56 runs. Afghanistan's biggest achievement in this World Cup tournament is that they beat New Zealand, they beat Australia and in the last match they beat Bangladesh to secure the semi-final.  Afghanistan qualified for the semi-finals, an achievement similar to their World Cup victory. Afghanistan has shown well how a small country can do well in big tournaments. 

South Africa is going to qualify for the final of a major tournament like the World Cup for the first time in the history of cricket. Congratulations in advance to South Africa.

I never imagined that Afghanistan would go all out so easily in today's game, but this game made a huge difference even though they entered the semi-finals after completing a tough competition. South African team has done very well bowling performance Marco Jansen and Shamsi these two players have done very well in terms of bowling. Almost every bowler of the South African team has collected wickets, but the players of the Afghanistan team have had a bad batting performance. 
Patience players were the most lacking, one of the reasons why the Afghanistan team performed poorly is that Afghanistan is much weaker than South Africa. So it seems natural to lose to a strong team.

What a big mess Afghanistan made today of themselves. They won the toss, batted first and got only 56 runs. This might be the worst batting by any team in the tournament. Or it was best bowling by the South African bowlers.

Next semifinal will be played today between India and England. Rain is predicted in Guyana and if the game gets suspended then India will go to the finals as they are the top team on the point table. ICC forgot to allocate an extra day for the semifinals knowing that rain can disrupt the game.

A great game we watch today is between South Africa and Afghanistan. Where many people said that maybe the game between Afghanistan and South Africa will be a tough fight between the two teams, but here the Afghanistan team is under a lot of pressure and lost very badly. Afghanistan will end the World Cup semi-final match so badly by losing their entire wicket for 56 runs in 11.5 overs. No one imagined the party. However, South Africa won the final match by a huge margin of nine wickets and they will definitely be the favorites for the final match this season. Since Afghanistan team lost by a huge margin against South Africa, maybe South Africa team will try to perform better in the next match.

I thought today's semi-final match would be very competitive. But due to poor performance by Afghanistan batsmen, they were all out for just 56 runs, which was not expected. As it was a semi-final match, both teams were strong. Afghanistan won the last two matches by batting first against Australia and Bangladesh, today also Afghanistan won the toss and elected to bat. In my opinion Afghanistan should have won the toss and bowled today. Anyway, South Africa's bowling line was very good today which resulted in South Africa beating Afghanistan easily. Congratulations to the South African team for reaching the final.
