Poor batting from..

Shubman Gill 4 runs
Shreyas Iyer 4 runs
Ravindra jadeja 9 runs
SKY 18 runs

In yesterday's match, India's top batsmen's contribution was very poor, especially in the early stages, India were under so much pressure that KL Rahul was forced to play a Test-like innings. India's innings was set a target of 240 for now based on KL Rahul's slow batting. Although the target of 241 runs was not a very tough target for Australia but due to poor performance of Indian fielding in Australia's innings and several missed catches, India lost the match yesterday heartbreakingly.
Yes 4 batsmen batted very badly, if they could have batted well they could have given enough runs target. I think if Shreyas Iyer and Shubman Gill both batted well, India would have been able to target many runs, because if they had done well in the beginning, India would not have been under so much pressure. With Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer in great form, they were expected to put up a good run but they failed in the end. Against Netherlands and New Zealand, Suryakumar Yadav was allowed to bat towards the end of the innings, due to which he could not score many runs. But in the final match Suryakumar Yadav got a chance to bat with many overs left, but he could not bat well. Ravindra Jadeja bats unexpectedly. Besides, Rahul, Kohli, Rohit would have been able to give a target of many runs if one of them scored a century. India's squad had top order and middle order batting strong in batting but lower order batsmen are very weak in batting.
I think the way India batted was really bad compared to other matches. Especially if a few batsmen could have performed well, they could have scored more runs, but it was not in India's luck. But I think that if India had given the target of more runs, the Australian team could have met that target. Because the Australian batsmen came to the field with the intention of beating India by any means, and they fulfilled that objective and became the champion by defeating India by a huge margin. The way six-time world champions Australia played the final match against India was really interesting to watch. Where the Indian team was undefeated for the entire ten matches, it is truly worth seeing that the Indian team defeated Australia in the final match and won the champion trophy. However, every player in the Indian team was disappointed yesterday, both batting and bowling were bad which led to their loss, but many people were happy to see India lose.
Yes ,you are right. Indian team performed very bad. In my opinion,if target would be 300+ then it would be very difficult for Australia. In Final match, 300 score is big score to chase. But India can't make handsome score to defend. When Australian 3 wickets fell ,it seemed India will caught Australia  batsmans under 200 score but Travis Head and Labuschagne played very well and they made a good partnership and they snatched the match from Indian players.India is best team but Australia also proved that they are king not in only home ground but in also Indian ground,Ahmadabad. Mohammed Shami didn't performed well in Final match.
I think even if India had scored 300+ runs it would not have been too difficult for Australia to win the match. Because they went on the field without the preparation that Australia will win the 2023 World Cup, where the Australian captain said they have the experience of how to play the World Cup. Although 300 plus runs would have been difficult for Australia to win but India could not make it, it was their misfortune that no player could perform well. The batsmen of the Indian team could not sustain any pair to the end for which they could have accumulated the score very high. However, despite the early wickets of the Australian team, Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne took over the game, and the batting performances they saw definitely proved that they are the kings of the cricket world. Mohammad Shami I think has done well enough for his individual side but the Australian batsmen made it very difficult for India.
India definitely fell short on the runs in the World Cup, and they have only themselves to blame for not winning on their home turf with the talented lineup they've got. Honestly, their bowling attack is something else. With Mohammad Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, and Mohammed Siraj, no team can easily score 300. In a World Cup Final, chasing 300-plus runs would have been a tough ask for Australia. If things had played out differently, the scenarios could have been better and favored India.

The Ukraine-Italy match was a very critical match and Ukraine could not get 3 points from this match. Although Italy was effective throughout the match, the match ended 0-0. Ukraine will now try to qualify from the Playoffs, but their efforts certainly deserve praise. I think this score is very good in this group.

It's not going to be easy to qualify through the playoffs. And also, they will be facing very tough teams during the playoff round. But I agree with your take on Ukraine. Despite all the negatives related to war and politics, they put up a very strong showing during the qualifiers. Also, don't forget the fact that they had missed qualifying for the 2022 FIFA World Cup by a whisker (by losing to Wales in the last playoff match). I agree that they deserve a spot in the Euro Cup of 2024. But they need to win the next 2-3 playoff matches in order to achieve that.
Ukraine had to grab a win against Italy to lock in their spot for EURO 2024. But, after the draw, Italy snagged automatic qualification, leaving Ukraine with more matches to go through. Honestly, I feel like Ukraine deserves a spot in the Euros next year. They're not an easy team to face. Even though they finished third, they still have a chance to qualify through the playoff round.

I've been with Bittrex since 2018. It's just a bit of nostalgia.

Let's be honest here. Was anyone really using it? Their service was pretty bad – super high fees and customer service that was basically non-existent. So, it's not surprising they made this tough decision. Times has changed, and we've got alternatives now. To stay in the game, you've got to offer quality service without charging crazy fees. That's just how it is.

Australia won the World Cup. That’s shocking news because when the World Cup was started Australia's performance was very poor, even though we thought that maybe Australia couldn’t qualify for the World Cup but a miracle occurred and they picked the victory from India and took away to Australia. Travis Head was the man of the match in the final and he also hit 100-plus runs in the final of the test championship against India.
Travis Head is made for India and also only in the final. Travis Head played very well, he deserved it. That’s a massive final. Let’s hope for more finals like that.

Australia lost the first two matches of the World Cup. The team's semi-final qualification was uncertain after heavy defeats against India and South Africa. Even then we saw them put up a tough fight against Afghanistan. Even after losing 7 wickets for only 91 runs, Australia won with a target of 292 runs. An incredible and monstrous innings was played by Maxwell, who was assisted by Pat Cummins. A loss in this match would have made it difficult for Australia to qualify for the semi-finals.

Pat Cummins is the main hero behind Australia's World Cup win. He is an excellent captain. At the same time, Starc and Zampa have bowled well in this World Cup. Travis Head's brilliant innings of 137 in the final match made India easy to beat.
Australia beat India in Ahmedabad, securing their sixth men's ODI World Cup! India was convincingly beaten by a superior side on that particular day. Australians seem to have a knack for playing the perfect game when it matters. The Aussies really outplayed India on their home turf when it counted, and that's how they clinched their sixth World Cup title.

It was a bit of a toss-up, a two-horse race, and the Aussies brought their A-game, ultimately winning. Luckily, Travis Head stepped up, and they emerged victorious. Head really stood out in it all. I'm pleased Australia won, and they truly deserved it.
645  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: November 20, 2023, 04:04:20 PM
~snip~
What the Saudi Pro League is doing might not be the best long-term plan, I'm beginning to think. Bringing in famous players like Ronaldo and Neymar makes news and increases popularity, but what about long-term success? It's possible that relying only on star power, especially from experienced players, might not be enough to improve the team's general quality

We should think about the future, right? Your league's ability to grow and get better depends on its young, skilled players. One problem is that it's hard to get these young players to choose the SPL over well-known European teams. It's to advance their careers, win titles, and get noticed in the major levels. For the SPL to be successful in drawing this important group, they'll need to come up with something equally appealing

I think that is going to change though. Because it is rumoured that the Saudi Professional League is in talks with UEFA about including them in the Champions League competition. So if they actually get included in the Champions League competition, I think a lot more young players are going to be interested in going to the Saudi league. Especially when they see that they are offering a lot more money. But as I said, it is only a rumour. And I still don't know whether it will actually happen, and even if it does when it will happen.

I have heard two rumors regarding it this year.

1. UEFA has been rumored considering including the winner of SPL into the UCL as per saudi pro league's requestion the UEFA. I personally rejected this idea caused by it will be only destroy the reputation of FIFA.
2. UEFA has invited al nassr to participate in the UCL through invitation due to the popularity of the club.

It seems that people are beginning to hold the opinion that the news about the UEFA giving an opportunity for the Saudi club to participate is nothing but fake news. There's no need to trust it anymore. People are losing their brain.

These are just rumors and far from reality. Saudi Arabia is not in Europe and they are plating in Asia. Also, teams like Al Nassr and Al Hilal or other Saudi teams are playing in the AFC Champions League. I think it's not even fair to have a team like Nassr in UEFA just because they spend lots of money on famous players. This way any team can be in UEFA by spending money.

But let's be real, such news is just a fantasy. Keep dreaming.
This is like a total joke, and folks are starting to wonder if you can just "become" a European Club by throwing in enough money.

The Saudi league isn't too bad. It's on the rise with better and better standards. Sure, they're putting resources into getting the best players, and there's quality for sure, but there's no chance Saudi Arabia is getting into UEFA.

Manchester United are said to have plans to sign Antoine Griezmann in January by offering a really profitable deal for him. They are said to be planning to offer 435k euros per week which would be nearly double his weekly salary now. Marca says like it is triple the amount he earns now but as far as I can see he earns 240k euros per week.

Anyway even if this attracts Griezmann's attention I don't feel like Atletico Madrid would let him go in the first place. Because he is at home now and showing a really valuable performance to the team. I don't even expect Griezmann to leave in January while Atletico Madrid are in a much better condition than the Red Devils.

I've read Man United is ready to triple Antoine Griezmann's contract. The thing is, tripling wages is their way of trying to attract players, but it doesn't necessarily make them better. Honestly, the Premier League might be too fast-paced for him. Another point is Atletico Madrid seems to be in a better condition than Man United, so he might just turn down United's offer.

And yesterday I placed the bet between France and Gibraltar, goals under 6  Angry
The only reason I'm not sad about the lost bet is because the Gibraltar players must have suffered a lot, much more than me, conceding 14 goals in a competition is very difficult, even if it's to the French team
This kind of hugely disproportional match is a problem in soccer, at least in my opinion. It doesn't add anything to either team and I don't think even the fans themselves like to see something like that, it's only good for a potential player to try to be the top scorer in a competition

The only reasonable bet I've found today is for Scotland to win, paying 2.25, maybe I'll try to recover my loss of yesterday
What do you think guys?


I just think like Gibraltar aren't much different than San Marino for example. Therefore we can always see absurd scores at the end. But a score like 14-0 was just way too much I can agree with that.  Grin  If that red card didn't exist in the match then I wonder how much the score would have changed. But France were still looking really determined to crush their opponent.

I don't have much knowledge about even the players of Gibraltar. I mean how many of them are even real players rather than players who normally have other professions?

Because as far as I know San Marino's squad is full of people who aren't much related to professional football.  Cheesy
France's performance was spot-on. 14-0 this is the biggest result I've ever seen. Conceding 14 goals turned the match into a real goal festival. There seemed to be no respect in the game. This is too much, and Gibraltar will be traumatized for life.
Matches against teams like Gibraltar, San Marino, and Liechtenstein provide an opportunity for strikers to boost their scoring achievements for the national team. I'm not surprised; Gibraltar isn't well-known in football, being a country with fewer than 32,000 people, just 10% of Lagos Island.

Indian batsmen have been batting with power since the start of 2023 World Cup. But Team India had to face a big stumbling block in the final. Australia's bowlers bowled brilliantly to bowl out a strong team like India for 240 runs. 240 runs will not be too difficult for Australia. Even if India's bowling is very strong then Australia will not have much problem to win this. Indian bowlers should bowl well. If they can take a 2 wickets in the beginning then Australia team will be under some pressure. Finally, let's see how well Indian bowlers can bowl. About one and a half lakh cricket fans are sitting in the gallery to watch it.
Well, I wonder how the Indian team batted, the team that did massive runs and did not lose even a single match can do a small target of 240. This is not a warm-up match but a 2023 final match and I did not expect this from India. I thought that the minimum target that they give to the Australian team would be 295 something because the Indian team in the whole World Cup gives a target of more than 300 and I thought for the final they might reach 380, but I appreciate the bowling of the Australian team that how they bowl and restricted India to the 240 runs. They drop the first wicket on the Indian team on 30 runs which shows how much they are prepared for this final. Now it is the time for Indian bowlers how they can deal with the batsman.
Australia was under a bit of pressure after losing wickets in the beginning to bat against the target of 240 runs given by India. Australia's batsmen lost 3 wickets after the team's 47 runs. Then opener Travis Head is trying to pull the team together with Marnus Labuschagne. The partnership of these two has developed beautifully. If these two batsmen can bat well, then Australia will win today's match and become the champion. The current Australia team score is 126 runs for 3 wickets in 23 overs. If the current Australia batting can maintain this consistency then Australia will win this match. I really feel bad for India in today's match. They batted so well from the start but today in the final match they didn't bat very well. A strong team like India has the ability to score 400 runs. But today they only got 240 runs all out.  

After losing three quick wickets, crucial innings are coming from Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne. Australia should win it comfortably. Travis Head is on a roll with consecutive half-centuries in the World Cup semi-final and final, making Aussies hold their heads high. He seems set to score a ton. India needs to make a breakthrough at this moment.

Congratulations to the great and mighty Australian cricket team, 5 times World Cup Champions for making finals! I really admire their determination never to admit defeat and play every ball as if they'll win. Who knows, they might become the 6th-time world cup champions this time! But, this time around, Australia will have to face India. Indians are determined to win at any cost, meaning, they won't let go of the trophy easily. It's going to be an exciting ODI World Cup Final.

After carrying out a medical examination, it was reported that Vinicius had suffered a rupture in the bicep femoral muscle plus the distal tendon in his left leg and he was confirmed to be out for two and a half months. Very bad news for the Real Madrid winger and it is certain that 2023 is over for Vinicius. I didn't expect the injury to be that serious and being out for that amount of time will definitely make it a little difficult for Real Madrid to maintain its consistency. International breaks always bring pain to all players and things like this are the most feared of losing key players when the competition in the standings is increasingly competitive with other teams.

That's why international matches feel almost as intense as going to war between countries. It's nerve-wracking both ways, but that's our football – they've to perform duties on both the international and club stages. Unfortunately, Real Madrid's injury list just keeps getting longer. This time, Vinícius Jr will be out for at least two and a half months after getting a thigh injury against Colombia match. It's bad news, but Madrid has to keep going. Let's just hope that, no matter how tough it gets, Madrid will still manage to survive it.

That's crazy. Everton has received 10 points deduction due to breach FFP. I can't even believe it. Burnley and leeds have been sending this complaint and everton has proven breach FFP. Premier league gave everton 10 points deduction.
Everton is now back again to the relegation zone with only 4 points remaining at this moment. The club needs to work even harder again to leave from the relegation zone. This is a bad news for everton caused by the club must have started from the bottom again.

Quote
The Premier League have confirmed Everton have received a 10-point deduction after being found guilty of breaching Financial Fair Play regulations in the 2021/22 season.

This news may also affect the performance from everton in upcoming game against a strong club. Everton needs to push itself beyond its limit. The club really needs to recollecting 10 points again to leave from the relegation zone.
I knew this is a very hard thing to be accepted by the club but since premier league has sanctioned everton with 10 points deduction and the club can do nothing about that.
They just have to accept the punishment since they have been proven guilty. It not going to be easy for them all after coming far but nevertheless they have to be strong and improve in their performance, at least the game they had is just 12 which the have not reach the middle of the season and I believe in them they will be out of relegation zone before the beginning of the second leg. I have much confidence in them that relegation zone is not made for them with their current performance.
well, that's a quick reaction punishment for Everton, and now we're closely watching how things unfold. All I've heard is that poor Everton broke the rules. After that, the Premier League table looks quite different with Everton's confirmed 10-point deduction. Being in the 19th position doesn't really suit them based on their current performance, but they've got to deal with this tough time. They'll overcome it because this Everton won't be relegated this season. They'll do everything possible to come out of the relegation zone. The season is still long, and there's plenty of time to get out of the red zone.

It's nothing new, you can check how the Ballon d'Or works.

If Al Nassr is invited to Champions League, I want to see Al Nassr humiliating both Inter Miami and Manchester United, this will shut every people mouths who say bad against Ronaldo. I hope Portugal can become a champion in Euro 2024, not a world cup, but at least it's international trophy.


I can not deny a fact that Cristiano Ronaldo is playing like charm at his 38-years old and many players at his generation became coaches recent years like Rooney, Lampard, Gerrad, Xavi, Xabi Alonso but Cristiano is still here and scores many goals for his club.

Another fact, he is no longer like he was a couple of years ago, his body is older and ageing does affect his body and he wasted many opportunities because of his ageing effect. But let's think, if he is younger, how many goals he is able to score in Saudi Professional League in one season? 60 or 70 goals for Al Nassr within only one season?

I raise this point to emphasize that he is a very outstanding player and Manchester United did not perform better too much after they let him go. So he is not their problem, just like Maguire or Bruno Fernandez. A team must win and lose as a team and Cristiano Ronaldo is not singly responsible for Manchester United's bad results two seasons ago.

Cristiano Ronaldo keeps defying age and setting records. Scoring 46 goals and making 12 assists in just 50 games in a single year is truly remarkable. At 38 years old, he's proving that age is just a number, especially when other players of his generation are transitioning into coaching roles in recent years. Cristiano's talent and determination are unmatched, making him a true legend in the world of football. We need to raise our voices and celebrate while he's still active. This is a once-in-a-generation milestone. It's no wonder he's still making headlines at 38; he just can't stop impressing not only his fans but the whole world.

Games that have no goals from the first half to the end of the game is just boring to watch, and this Liechtenstein vs Portugal game is one of those games we expect to see goals coming in from different angles but no it didn't happen.
The first half of the game is quite disappointing to me, because I was expecting to see the visitors (Portugal) dropping like 3-4 goals before heading into half-time but is still goalless.
I hope with the stars that Portugal are having in this fixture it won't end in a draw or 0-2 win, at least Cr7 need to score more goals to increase his goal scoring record.
The first half was a frustrating affair between the two teams, with neither team attacking well and scoring in the first half.  Maybe Portugal would have played well from start to finish in the match, but that was not the case, rather they had a very bad first half. Portugal has good stars currently according to that if they perform well they could have won by more goals but not so good favor them. Although the match ended 0-2, the match started very disappointingly, but Portugal attacked well in the second half. Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal in the 46th minute to put his team ahead of the opposition. And the second goal on 57 minutes made the game even better as Portugal didn't allow the opposition to attack as they eventually held on to the game. In the last minute they pulled off a win and stayed on the points table with 27 points. So far, in 9 matches, Portugal have not lost a single match and have had a great run in all matches.
Portugal clinched a victory over ordinary Liechtenstein, they're keeping their perfect qualifying record – 9 wins out of 9 games! Even among all the players, Ronaldo still stands out, keeping up with the young talents at the top level as usual. In today's match, he played as a midfielder, and Goncalo was the main striker. The details of the game are pretty much history now. I'm a fan of their new coach and how he switched up the key positions, but it didn't quite work out this time. People were expecting Portugal to win by at least 6 goals, but that didn't happen. I think the team missed Rafael Leao.

Argentina vs Uruguay
2026 World Cup Qualifier match Argentina vs Uruguay. Already the first half game is over and the second half game has started. Uruguay scored 1 goal in 41 minutes. Argentina was playing 4 matches of the World Cup qualifiers and is number 1 in the points table after winning all 4 matches. If Argentina lose today, they will lose the top spot in the points table. Uruguay put on a great performance to defeat a strong team, Brazil. Today it seems that Uruguay will win, if Uruguay wins, it will go to the top of the points table. 70 minutes of playing is over and there are 20 minutes, will Argentina finally lose to Uruguay today?

I never expected the Argentina team to give such a performance to the audience today. Because I had bet for Argentina and I faced loss because every player in Argentina team is experienced and world cup winning player. But Argentina's audience never thought of such a performance with Uruguay. Because their team lost 2-0 despite having Lionel Messi. Despite repeated attacks by the Argentine team, they could not succeed in any way. In total Argentina had 12 shots on goal and Uruguay had 6 shots on goal. But in between, Uruguay managed to shoot two shots, but the Argentine team did not succeed in any way, because the Uruguayan defense was strong.

Totally unexpected. It's Argentina's first loss since they won the World Cup. Against Uruguay, every pass seemed weak. The midfield for Argentina was a bit of an issue today. Congratulations to Uruguay, though. This is their first-ever victory as visitors against Argentina in the entire history of the qualifiers! Here's hoping Argentina bounces back stronger than ever.

Zidane is a wise coach and one of the most successful coaches in Real Madrid's history. He always chooses a famous club, and behind that success is a team of all-star students. If Zidane goes to Real Madrid, he will bring Mbappé with him at all costs?. It's not necessary to say Zidane has to depend on the stars. His tactics also make opponents afraid.
I still want to see Zidane return as coach. He should prove his bravery when he is ready to revive a seriously depressed team. I mean, Manchester United needs him more than ever. They are in severe decline.
MU is experiencing problems with its club organization. So I don't think Zidane will be willing to train MU to replace Ten Hag, who has received a lot of harsh criticism from many observers and fans.
Many are dissatisfied with Ten Hag's current performance with MU. There are those who think they were better last season and now we see MU playing very badly.
If there is going to be a change of coaching chair, Zidane might be right. but is he willing to build a team in trouble?
He's never really built his own team. Madrid was set up by Mourinho and others, and he stepped into a team that was already good to go. So, honestly, I don't trust him much. Zidane, wouldn't take this job; it could mess up his legacy. He can pretty much choose where he wants to go next, and dealing with United isn't likely even on his radar, no matter how much money they throw at him.
Zidane could be a good replacement for Ten Hag, and maybe United could get back on track with a fresh start. But what I really think is, it's not the managers that are the issue; it's the form of the team. Changing managers might not solve the situation, in my opinion.

2023/24 La Liga season has been quite an entertainment so far. Girona is leading the league race for this season up until now. but, will Girona end the year on top? After 13 matches, Girona is 2 points ahead at the top, with Real Madrid and Barcelona close behind. Barcelona, aiming to defend their title, unfortunately hasn't had the best performances this season. while, Atletico and Real Madrid, their closest challengers, have been pretty convincing so far. Girona is having their best season yet, but some tough games are coming up for this season dark horse. Can they go all the way against the big boys? Exciting times ahead in La Liga!

There you go, they will bat first and try to get 400 runs as target. Australia will be struggling to chase that target unless they get the African batters out before they get to the big total.

I agree with you 100%. But you should know that cricket is a game, "where anything can happen at any time." It cannot be said if a batsman at number 7 or 9 can turn the game around. Best of luck Australian cricket team!

LOL.. South Africa chose to bat first, and they are struggling at 17/2 after 9.3 overs. They have been completely demolished by the Australian pacers (Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc). Quinton de Kock and Temba Bavuma are back in pavilion already (in case of the latter, I am not even surprised). There is a very good chance that South Africa will be bowled out for a two-digit total. Aiden Markram and Rassie van der Dussen are at the crease and they are really struggling. Rassie so far has just 5 runs to his name from 27 balls.

South Africa is in a big trouble with 4 wickets down after 14 overs. SA are 44/4.

Seems like South Africa's knockout curse is back! Considering Australia's bowling on this pitch, it's going to be tough for South African batters to score over 100 runs. Looks like this match is heading towards a low score. If there's no solid fighting total, the Aussies might win it pretty easily.

The game is very much over for New Zealand, they need 149 runs on 70 balls and 6 wickets remaining. Daryl Mitchell is well set batsmen on 113 runs but asking rate has gone high to 12 runs per over. What a tournament Muhammad Shami is having, 4 more wickets today and 20 wickets so far in this tournament.

Today when the New Zealand has started their batting I thought they can win the game for their team but later they didn't played a good cricket. They had made many stops in their last overs, I don't know why they were playing like this after 31 over even they have more wickets in hand. But they were completely beaten by Muhammad Shami today as his bowling was crucial in the whole match.

In the 1st Semi-Final match between NewZealand and India at Wankhede Stadium, India showcased brilliant all-round Cricket, setting a formidable total of 397/4 in 1st innings of match. Virat Kohli monumental century 117 for 113 balls marked his 50th ODI hundred, adding to the fireworks in the innings by by Shreyas Iyer brilliant knock of 105 runs and Rohit Sharma explosive start of the match by 47 runs. I think Despite Tim Southee's efforts with 3 wickets, India's batting performance proved unstoppable set a 398 runs target and NewZealand failed by missing 70 runs.

Rohit Sharma really made a good start in the match. His performance was impressive so far in the tournament. The Indian side showed some explosive batting, setting a target of 398 runs for New Zealand. Unfortunately, the Blackcaps couldn't reach that total, thanks to Mohammed Shami's fantastic bowling. Mo Shami delivered a five-star performance, proving he's the best bowling machine India has right now. Congratulations to India for making it to the final. They're playing quality cricket, they're united and strong.

Did Shami just drop the World Cup?
If New Zealand is able to play like this for the next 10 overs and do not loose a wicket, then it is highly likely they could challenge India once again in a semi finals  Grin.

Daryl Mitchell is one short of his century and he needs to keep on batting till the end and if India is not able to break this partnership and then considering the flat wicket which is not helping the bowlers, it might be a good chase.
220 runs in 32 overs against India, New Zealand is playing well. Probably New Zealand will not be able to cross the huge run target given by India but New Zealand is surprising everyone by playing so well. Daryl Mitchell is playing very well and has already completed 100 runs. But till now he is not out. Daryl Mitchell's good performance in such a tough match is enhancing his reputation a lot. I believe that India will win this match as a target like 397 runs will not be possible for New Zealand to overcome. Because they still need 178 runs in 17 overs which demands about around 2 runs per ball. Although such a score is possible, I am not sure if it will be possible for New Zealand Against India
Daryl Mitchell's fifth ODI hundred is putting New Zealand lead the game. However, the team needs similar performances from other batters, especially hoping for a good contribution from Phillips today. The current run rate is over 12 runs, and it's expected to increase as the match goes on. It seems like India is back in the game, and it's just a matter of time before they confirm their win. When it matters the most, Indian bowlers are delivering their best. While things are getting tough for New Zealand batters at every minutes, they fail to maintain the Net Run Rate (nrr).
