I was expecting some change today, especially expecting replacement for Arshdeep, but India played with the same team.


Well, there is no replacement bowler for pacers in the Indian squad and Deepak Chahar seems to be not travelling with the squad for personal reasons. I thought Rutu might replace Jaiswal, but he did well on the other hand Gill failed again and his inconsistency run continues and ton from Skipper it's a special knock.

Now coming to the second Innings, SA lost two early wickets, so India got good opportunity to tie this series.
Indian batting line-up done good work in their inning and have 201 runs which are massive, and now their bowlers are also doing impressive job specially both spinners Yadav and Jadeja having 2 wickets each which give them big win in this match as currently in chase of 202 South Africa is having 90 runs with the lost of 7 wickets and David Miller and Williams are on crease which are looking for some better ending of this match which is already away from their reach as required rate is already above @15 which is looking impossible to reach.

1st semi final of icc U19 asia cup will be play Pakistan U19 vs UAE U19 on Friday. Pakistan Under19 is favourite because they won all their three matches single handedly and UAE U19 won 2 matches and lost only against Bangladesh U19. 2nd semi final will be play India u19 vs Bangladesh u19 on Friday. BAN U19 won their all three matches but india won 2 matches and lost only against Pakistan u19. BAN U19 team have played good quality cricket so this will be interesting match both teams will tried their best to play final

Pakistan no doubt favorite for the 1st semi final against UAE but India and Bangladesh semi final can be crucial. Bangladesh is unbeaten in its group and has the capability to surprise India in semis. SL performance is disappointing, they lost both major games and won only against Japan. This is not good for SL cricket. If there is no quality cricket in under 19 then there wont be good supply of players to main cricket squad. Cricket in SL in already struggling and there is dire need of young players.
UAE cricket team can't beat Pakistan and Pakistan will play excellent in semi final match and it will win the semi final and final match will be between India and Pakistan. And there are more chances of India to win the final because Indian plays quality cricket and Indian team is very focused on game and they are also hard working players and they have capacity to win against any big team of World. From previous 4-5 years Indian cricket board is trying to win every tournament and they want India at top in cricket.
Brother you need to change your mindset about few things because still UAE can beat Pakistan and I really surprised to read India can Pakistan as well it's really annoying for me because Pakistan beats India few days back easily and then again they beat them it's game with any team can win and lost it's not all about India is now having quality so surely they will beat Pakistan every time.
There is no doubt now we have the largest revenue and fan base from India, but It's not enough for them to go and win every tournament for this India needs to work on and give their best like we have USA in NBA few months back they lost Basketball world championship even before start of the event they were hot favorite for this just try to grow up and live in reality world with facts that every team can bring surprises and shocking wins and loses as well.

I think India are going to check their upcoming players and how they are performing and how well they are going to perform these days. Mostly the players like I can say Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma which were the backbone of the India Team, if still they are not even present in the matches then it would also be difficult for the team of India.Most likely they can win their matches but the new players have to focus on their batting strength that how well they have to bowl.

Then what happened during the 2023 ODI World Cup final? Both these players were present, and yet they lost the final match to Australia. Anyway, they can't be dependent on Rohit and Virat all the time. And the squad for the South African series actually contained a number of experienced players such as Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammed Siraj. Even after all this, if they can't win matches against an under-strength South Africa that is lacking QDK, Rabada and Nortje, then whose fault is it?

Let's be honest, India did not lose a single match till the World Cup final. And that's why they became a little cocky. And that's why they also got humbled very quickly. I honestly think India did not take Australia as a serious opponent in the final. Otherwise, just look at the game plan that Australia had, it was just way ahead compared to India. Australia actually did their homework.

And in this match, let's be honest India did not do well in the bowling. They have given away too many runs in such a short period of time. And in the end, South Africa was able to win pretty comfortably.
Australia is one of the toughest team in big matches, and they prove this as well with their performance in the final game which they won easily against all odds with their homework which they have done before this match and after winning toss their decision to bowl first was also very important and their bowlers also done all things as their plan which not allowed Indians to play freely even they were playing at their home which was early won for the Australia.
After having target of 241 Travis head and Marcus Labuschagne play impressive innings for giving their team another big cup which is surely still shock for the Indian fans as they were 100% sure about Indian wins but at the end all things gone wrong for them.

Pakistan Vs Australia 1st Test Match

.....

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the upcoming Pakistan vs. Australia test match! It's great to see the enthusiasm for the team and the analysis of the squad. While Australia may be the favorite, your loyalty to Pakistan is admirable. It's impressive that Pakistan recently beat Sri Lanka and is leading the World Test Championship points table. Regarding the pace attack, it's true that experience matters, and Shaheen Shah Afridi is a key player. It'll be interesting to see if Mir Hamza and Hassan make it to the playing XI against Australia. Let's hope for a thrilling match and a successful series for Pakistan. Best of luck to the team!
The first Test series of Pakistan vs Australia is going to be held on 14th. I will put Pakistan ahead in Australia vs Pakistan test series. Pakistan team is in great form after winning the Test series 2-0 against Sri Lanka. It is expected that Pakistan will do well in the Test series against Australia. After changing several players of Pakistan, they announced the team for the test series. Undoubtedly, Pakistan's bowling line is very strong. If they can bowl well and score good runs, then they can win the test series against Australia. After becoming the 2023 world champion, the Australian team's confidence has increased. The Pakistan vs Australia Test series will be very competitive. Let's see how well Pakistan can do against Australia in the end.
Pakistan and Australia both announced their player eleven for tomorrow match. Pakistan made 2 changes anir jamel and Khuran Shahzad in included in thier playing Xi. Babar azam and Salman ali agha os also played Shan masood is captain of Pakistan test team. Australia is going with 3 pacer and 1 spinner Nathan Liyon quality bowlers of Australia and best bastmen. In Australian picth they are more successful and have ability to win against Pakistan. Let see what happened 1st session us very crucial for both team.
Now we have few hours left in this first test match of the series with Pakistan is going with few new players and Australia is playing with their full strength which mean things could be not easy for the Pakistan they never won any game against Australia since 1996 with 14 test all loses is surely matter of shameful, but sadly they have never been done homework for this series which is important just because of this mostly they are having problems and these lose.
Now after embarrassing into world cup things are going more down new captain and many new players are going to face one of the best side in cricketing world and result is already understandable, but we need to be positive hopefully they will give some good cricket to watch.

If we talk about test cricket, Bangladesh is not very good. But if we talk about the other formats of cricket, I will say that Bangladesh is just having a bad time. But let's talk about test cricket, for now, Bangladesh is not very good at it. And at this moment I do not think Bangladesh should actually think about getting better in test cricket. It will be far better if they think about improving in other formats. Especially in t20 cricket. Because that is definitely going to be the future of cricket.

Yes, I agree with you that Bangladesh is not a well-playing Test Cricket Team. Bangladesh needs more concentration to find well-playing player hunting missions to arrange many more tournaments inside Bangladesh. I hope many more tournament helps Bangladesh to find perfect players by root. On the other hand, if the Bangladesh Cricket Board decides to concentrate on the field of T20. I think in the future, T20 will be the only game for Cricket.

Do you agree with me?
There is no doubt about this now many ICC members are looking for having something positive changes because now having teams for the three formats are not working burden is increasing and teams performance is also on decline so in this situation they can allow members if someone wants to scrap any format this could be ok for them if we have this situation then surely few improvements can happen and many teams will love to go with alone twenty/20 format which is better and profitable for the all but this all is not possible in near future we have to wait for this and surely this could be big change in game and can bring good improvement in quality of teams and players as well.

Liverpool 4.41

Aston Villa 16.66

Now everything looks fair, much more adequate than a week earlier when City’s odds were 1.25, and even a little earlier 1.1 (by the way, isn’t this a record-breaking drop in outrights?).

Both of these two odds looks like a proper odds to bet on outright bet for the remaining months. Liverpool has a good chance obviously to win the EPL but Aston Villa might be the dark horse this season just like Girona on La Liga. Putting small amount on Aston Villa might not seems like a bad idea after all and 3/4 of their next fixtures seems like games that they could win easily



Golden cap winner with only 9 points this round, a very low scoring round and I got up 2 position even with only getting 5 points this round
Surprises and shocking results are coming frequently and things are looking not easy for the top teams to stay at their current spots Aston Villa and Girona are surely leading the tables from nowhere but can they keep this momentum in second half of the season this is interesting question.

I have good result in this round and now expecting better in coming weeks as well after having the worst time in early rounds of this season which bring me down in pool table from the 15 to now 40 hopefully will be back in top ten in next few weeks Liverpool is going to hold lead for some weeks with City is currently out of the order.

Pakistan Women  vs New Zealand Women

New Zealand Women's team is going to face Pakistan Women's team in the first match of the ODI series today. New Zealand women's team is stronger than Pakistan's team. However, it is not said that New Zealand women's team will win this match. Because we don't see good performance from New Zealand women's team players in the T20 series. The New Zealand women's team lost the series 2–1. But every match was very competitive. The ODI series is expected to be competitive as well. Although the New Zealand team is strong, the team cannot be underestimated in the home series.
Match is already started as Pakistan women's after winning toss decided to bowl first and New Zealand having very aggressive start after 24 overs their openers are still on crease, and we have 146 runs after winning T20i there was feeling we will have good competition between these two teams in ODI as well but here situation is completely under New Zealand women's control and look like now after losing T20i series they are playing good game and not going to allow Pakistan for having anything positive from here Bernadine Bezuidenhou is on 84 runs and veteran Suzie Bates is also doing impressive job after having 64 on 63 balls look like we are going to have 350+ runs in this first ODI of the series which could be not easy to chase for the Pakistani women's.

Yes, we would have seen something better if Sikandar Raza was in the match. In the first match, he quarreled with his teammates, which resulted in a two-match ban. Sikandar Raza played very well in the first match, batting and bowling very well. Had he stayed in the second match, Zimbabwe's batting line-up would have been stronger and would have been able to target more runs. He could show great performance in bowling.

Tadiwanashe Marumani, the opening batsman of the Zimbabwe team, was dismissed for 1 run in the first match as well, and was also dismissed in the second innings after playing just one ball. Having performed poorly in two consecutive matches, I think Tadiwanashe Marumani should be changed from the XI in the next match.

Zimbabwe did not perform as expected at home. The opposition lost to Ireland by four wickets. Zimbabwe eventually fought back to win and took the game to the last over. Today again the third match of the series will be played. As the series is level with both the teams playing one match each, so today's match will be the final match for them whoever wins today will win the series. Let's see which team can show great performance today and win the series. However, due to the absence of Sikandar Raza in the Zimbabwean XI, the team is a bit shaky. Can Zimbabwe win the series at home today?

For the last many years, Sikandar Raza has been the backbone of the Zimbabwean national team. He remained loyal to his adopted country, at a time when many of the star players went abroad (Australia, New Zealand, England.etc). We may never know the exact reason why he quarreled. Anyway, his absence will be a big blow for Zimbabwe and will give the Irish an optimal opportunity to score a series win abroad. That said, Irish performance has been quite shaky as well, with their top order batsmen failing repeatedly and the bowlers being inconsistent. 

Yes, I also agree that if Sikandar Raza was playing, Zimbabwe actually would have won the match. But at the same time I also think that if Zimbabwe could actually bowl a little more with discipline, they also would have won the match.  Because in my opinion, they had actually given away a lot more runs as extras.  And yes, I know that Zimbabwe haven't actually had given them more extra than they had given to Ireland as extras. But I will certainly say that that was one aspect where Zimbabwe could have done better.
Absence of Sikandar Raza is surely hurting them and things are looking not good in third match as well with series is level on 1–1 and in third and final game start is not ideal for the home team after ten overs we have 65 for 4 which is giving good advantage to Ireland for the going to as winner Irish bowlers are disciplined and going bowling online and length which is giving them success and Zimbabwe batsmen are struggling badly now in remaining overs they need to play aggressively if they want to have better results otherwise things can go beyond their limits and Ireland will be able to secure all by themselves and will be winner of this series as well.

In the second match, Nepal is in a very strong position against Afghanistan. Nepal won the toss and asked Afghanistan to bat first. They are 44/3 after 9 overs, with Gulsan Jha and Hemant Dhami among the wickets. The first match didn't went well for Nepal. So this is an opportunity for them to make a comeback in this tournament. 

Afghanistan team can easily win this match against Nepal because as you all know this is an impossible thing that Nepal can win against Afghanistan because Afghanistan is a huge team even most biggest countries of cricket fear playing against Afghanistan because their team is too strong and they can do anything and most of the time, their people can also do something, means in the Asia Cup of 2022, when Pakistan vs Afghanistan played a match and Pakistan won that match so Afghani crowd has been angry and because of their anger they almost break all seats of Dubai stadium so Dubai cancelled their visa and that's why those people can never come again in Dubai. Anyway, let's see what happens in today's match.
Afghanistan is already securing their win with in chase of 260 currently Nepal is 112 for 6 after 25 overs mean now requirement is near the impossible for them which mean now Nepal will be down in this group after losing their second match and Afghanistan is now having their last game against Pakistan which is going to be interesting.
In other game Pakistan in chase of 260 currently having good position, and they are on 116 for lost of one wicket in 24 overs good control by them Shahzaib completed his half century and Azam is on 41 hopefully they will secure their second win in their campaign for reaching into top four easily.

Well.. this is something that has happened in the past with teams like India as well. They prepare dustbowls against SENA teams, hoping that their spinners will be able to exterminate the opposition. Once in a while, spinners from the opposition side take advantage of this situation and in the end the tactic backfires on the sub-continental team. As such there is nothing wrong with these tactics from Bangladesh. If they had prepared good pitches, then in all probability New Zealand would have swept the series 2-0.
Does this backfire narrative apply to Aussies? They managed to lose 2 back to back series in their backyard by giving Indians bouncy wickets.

Does this also apply to Poms? They rolled over green pitch at lord etc and almost lost the series and had to settle with a draw series after one year.

Does this narrative also apply to Proteas? Remember the time, when they gave such a bouncy, paced pitch that their batters refused to bat on, kohli's team spanked them badly there despite losing a series.

SENA countries offering Green, Bouncy, Seam and talk would be around good/bad cricket, good/bad cricketers and skill/unskilled but everyone takes a U-turn when any subcontinent team prepares spin wickets. I hope you got the point.

In Test cricket, every team is going to prepare the pitch as they wish it to be. And most of the time they are going to prepare the tracks so that they have an advantage. That is going to be the story of almost every test match in every country.
 I don't know why, for some reason, people are losing their minds over this. Because people should know that this is what they should expect. And the team touring another country also knows that very well and they should also be prepared accordingly.
Now it's time for having few positive changes in this game because if they are not going to have improved things then surely we lost more charm which is not ideal even currently we are having few issues which are related to different things as few years back there were talk we need to skip toss with visitors have to choose what they want bat or bowl first and also need to check before start of the match by ICC inspection team which will give all review about this because we need to improve results and performance of teams as well which will help to this format for having better results and pitches like these are surely not allowed because it's not good now we need to go for the minimum three or four days game.

What a start for the West Indies and young debutant Matthew Forde after ten overs we have 49 runs from England with the lost of five wickets visitors are in deep trouble after starting batting first three wickets for the Matthew Forde one run-out and fifth for the Joseph bring West Indies in good position for having win this third and final game of this series with win will bring good confidence for them against team like England even currently both are in same position having young guns for the future and trying to come out of the struggling time which is hurting them badly in last few months.
Ben Duckett and Liam Livingstone trying his best for some better things hopefully things will be positive for them if these are able to stay on crease for some time otherwise West Indies is surely controlling the game after winning toss and electing to field first after rain in early session.

Only the Liverpool match managed to guess perfectly, but the other 5 matches were wrong, unlucky this week so many surprises from small teams especially Manchester United who were battered by Bournemouth at Old Trafford.

In the Manchester United vs Bournemouth match there were no correct guesses, all wrong on Superbru. Grin
Just check and feeling frustrated because I also have only one positive with all others are going wrong which mean I have no chance for jumping out from my current spot in pool which is going deep after every round Bournemouth done impressive job against Manchester United now I have feeling soon we will have some changes in this club.
Arsenal is doing their best but Aston Villa having impressive performance in last few weeks and look like now they are new top spot contender which is just because of amazing work by the Emery who bring them from nowhere to top, and now they are strong enough for staying here.

Arsenal goal disallowed due to offside but still 25 minutes left in this match, and we can expect good action from the both sides which are trying to stay in top ranks.

Liverpool made hardwork of it but still managed to win and go top of the table for the first time this season (I think).

Yet another disappointing outing for Nunez and I dare say Salah too, even though he got his landmark 200 goals for Liverpool. Klopp will need to do some more work on the team if they want to win the league this season. But for now, they can kick their feet up and watch what happens at Villa park.

- Jay -
Liverpool achieve their target as Mohammad Salah and Elliot done impressive job in last few minutes and able to secure three points and top spot in league table, hopefully now they will give their best for keeping this for long time currently Gunners are struggling against spirited Aston Villa, and we have 45 minutes and two goals if they want to take back their spot but after end of first half its look like not easy job.
Manchester City is going to stay at third spot, and we are going to have new teams taking charge of top spots Spurs and Citizens are down and United humiliated by Bournemouth look like things could be very interested in next half of this season.

Today is the third match between West Indies and England, and this is also the last ODI match of this series, after this match T20 series between the both same teams will start from 13 December to 22 December.

Anyways, we should think about today's match and who will win, if we check the previous matches of both teams so one match was won by West Indies and the second match was won by England, and when West Indies won they had a very good victory and when England won so they also had a very convincing victory, so let's see both teams have good results in their previous matches. It is hard to predict the winner of today's match.

Maybe England would win in my opinion as they are a more experienced team than West Indies.
Today's match is very important for both the teams because in the last two matches both teams have won 1 match each so both teams are on equal score.  So the team that wins today's match will be ahead.  And that team will be qualified to play next step.  So both the teams will be trying to win this match so this match could be a close fight as both the teams will try to play well. But yes I agree with you that England is slightly more likely than West Indies to win the match
Currently, we are having rain and most chances we are not going to have full 50 overs match which could be setback, but many are hoping for the match because after first two matches we are having 1–1 and decider needs to be more thrilling like we have today T20i between Zimbabwe vs Ireland fans now wants matches like these which create good entertainment and good cricket for them.
First match England lost even after doing 300+ and then we have good comeback from them as they bowled out West Indies cheaply and now third and final game is under serious threat from rain, but we want this match, hopefully we will have good news soon from ground.

I didn't think I would get the results of Test matches in such a short time but Bangladesh and New Zealand didn't waste any extra time. The match would have ended on the third day had the rain not stopped play. The Bangladeshi batsmen came out to bat on the wicket in the second innings and they quickly returned to the pavilion. In the second innings Bangladesh lost all the wickets and managed to score only 144 runs, on the other hand New Zealand secured an easy victory in the second Test against Bangladesh with four wickets in hand. The result of the first test was in favor of Bangladesh and the result of the second test was in favor of New Zealand Test series draw.
Now we are living in completely different era where things are changing very quickly without any problem so in near future mostly we will have test matches ended in three or four days which could be common because batsmen try to play quickly which are helping things for having the good number of wickets in everyday play.
English bazball is also going to have good impact and Australians are also doing good work with their mostly run-rate will be at the 3.5 to 4 which is also helpful for aggressive approach in test matches even most chances we will have no increase test match fans but still this is good for the game in the future.

Here I am not agreed with you about any other member will be having any concern because mostly are touring, and many other things are going normal its just Indian lobby and media which is creating some hype about situation is not good in Pakistan but still I am again going now things are not favorable for Pakistan in ICC so most chances we will have this trophy will be play in different views other than Pakistan but if we have strong government and other things then surely they will try to take some benefit which is also all depend on how ICC will go about this issue.
New Zealand, England and Australia are already completed their tours without any problem and most chances things will be improved, and we will have just BCCI as biggest opposition for this event not held in Pakistan.

A few teams like Australia and England completed their tours without any issue, but still if the BCCI is opposed to it, then the ICC can't stage any of the major tournaments in that country. If India pulls out, then 80% of the revenue is gone for the media rights holders. And if that happens, then all the full member boards will get impacted and not just the PCB. At this point, the best thing that the PCB can do is to try for the hybrid setup (even that is not guaranteed). Getting the funds from ICC is more important when compared to hosting tournaments for the PCB.
As I am already saying about this most chances we will not have this Champions Trophy in Pakistan because Indian authorities will be not happy as they never want to give any financial or other benefit to Pakistan so most chances ICC will change the venue, and we will have this again in the UAE which could be better option for all it's all about personal ego and power nothing else.
I don't want to post few pics here which I take few days back here in my city as few Indian tennis players were here for playing ITF event because this was not good beneficial for the Pakistan to they arrive and enjoy their tour with their families as well, but cricket is surely having completely different things so BCCI and Indian government will never allow this all simply this is all end of this topic.

@Sithara007

Zero hope from my side, at best, it would be a hybrid model and India will play its fixture in Dubai or maybe SL. Also, came across some reports that they are demanding compensation from BCCI if they don't visit Pakistan for CT.

You mentioned regulations on advertisements thingy a couple of times, what's that supposed to mean in the context of Pakistan? Not aware much of this topic.

In the end, it will be played in hybrid mode. For tax related complexities, GCC locations such as United Arab Emirates or Oman suits better for the ICC than Sri Lanka. Last time Asia Cup could not be held in GCC because of adverse weather conditions. But in case of Champions Trophy, there should be no such issues. Anyway, security situation in Pakistan is not that good either. So there is a good chance that a few of the full member boards other than the BCCI will be raising objections to the tournament being hosted by Pakistan.
Here I am not agreed with you about any other member will be having any concern because mostly are touring, and many other things are going normal its just Indian lobby and media which is creating some hype about situation is not good in Pakistan but still I am again going now things are not favorable for Pakistan in ICC so most chances we will have this trophy will be play in different views other than Pakistan but if we have strong government and other things then surely they will try to take some benefit which is also all depend on how ICC will go about this issue.

I completely agree, currently Pakistan is second most populated country in ICC but sadly in last 2 decades they are badly going down in stability and economically which is having many issues for them but no one going to accept ground realities which are bringing more problems for them in last two years we are having too many changes which are bringing more problems so with this all I have no positive signs for them in cricket with mostly other games are also ended.

Now as we are heading for the 2024 they are having elections in February which are also creating problems for the organizing PSL in Pakistan if they are not able to hold this again then surely they can face more problems for them champions trophy as well but in current situation no one can bring anything positive for this country all is down in long run.

PSL contributes to a large share of the income for PCB. If they are unable to hold the elections, then it is not going to end well for the board and the players. Also if the opposition wins the election, we can expect further changes in PCB and that will destabilize the domestic cricket further. As of now, I am having little hope of Pakistan hosting the champions trophy in 2025. At the most, they can have a setup similar to what was done for the 2023 edition of Asia Cup. Given the power equilibrium in ICC and ACC, there is very little that PCB can do at this point.
Now one thing is sure India is having strong control in cricket, and now they are using this for ruining them even we have few good things which are going to help them but now most chances they will be not able to host any ICC or ACC relating event in Pakistan for some years because India will never visit and this will create problems for the ICC, and they will surely go with BCCI as they are the biggest generator of the game.
Pakistan is also having internal issues which are not going to settle in next few months and thing will be keep going like this which are surely favorable for the BCCI, so I have personal feeling Champions Trophy could be shifted to the UAE for the better ending of this all instead of going to have hybrid or anything else, but Pakistan will keep fight until last decision.

Basically, Aston Villa has had very good results this season for home matches, because so far this season Aston Villa has not been defeated at all in home matches. That way, it looks like Aston Villa will still be able to maintain this good trend of being unbeaten in this home match against Arsenal. Apart from that, and regarding the current match between Crystal Palace v Liverpool, in fact Crystal Palace managed to score a goal in the 57th minute. With that goal, currently Crystal Palace is still leading with a score of 1-0 and yes, even though Liverpool dominated this match, but it looks like it will still not be easy for Liverpool to beat Crystal Palace in this match.
The Reds have significant odds to win the Eagles. Liverpool can not lose to an average club, rather will settle for draw tie. Jurgen Klopp will not allow his side be defeated, this is injury time and time to explore more chances to score goals because they should be opportune to enter the winning position. Crystal Palace was leading but couldn't convert their chances to goals rather the scores are 1-1 because Liverpool are also proving stubborn against the Eagles. Selhurst stadium is filled with motions of suspense actions and we are ready to take up relevant actions for both sides.

Liverpool probably won't be able to win the match. The team is still tied at 1-1 in the 85th minute. Crystal Palace will be happy with 1 point in this match. Because they don't expect to win against Liverpool.

Neither team could score in the first half. Crystal Palace played very poorly defensively today. Liverpool's players made several attacks but were unable to score any goals. Crystal palce scored the first goal of the match from a penalty at the beginning of the second half. After Salah's goal to equalize the match, Crystal Palace's defense is now very strong. They want to finish the match 1-1.
I was expecting a goal from Liverpool after they were level through Salah, and we have goal from the Elliott which bring Liverpool to the top of the league table now things are looking very interesting as after few hours we have another exciting match which will decide who is going to stay at the top for next few weeks now just few minutes remaining and Liverpool is in good control of the game.
Red card is having his impact in this game as Crystal Palace were leading, but now they are trailing and going to have another poor result which will keep them at below in league table for some more time.

The second match of the T20I series between Ireland vs Zimbabwe has started. In today's match Ireland won the toss and decided to field first.  I think the decision to field first is the right one for Ireland. If the Orland team players can keep Zimbabwe batsmen under pressure from the beginning of the game then good things can be expected for the Orland team. However, it is impossible to say at this moment how well the Ireland team will do in the fielding in this match. But it is expected that the Ireland team can do something better in today's match. As far as we can tell from the first match of this series, both the teams have almost equal strength. The first match of this series saw a competitive battle between the two teams. Now let's see what Ireland team can do in today's match.
yes ireland win the toss and select bowling . Ireland playing very good performance in bowling as especially he took 2 by giving 10 runs in 2 overs and Campher took 1 wickets  by giving 12 run in 1 over. Zimbabwe side Kamunhukamwe palying very well having keep it their inning in progress they have scored 39 run if they continues their inning  they have a good run target for Ireland.
Ireland done good job in first game but at the end they lost narrowly game and Zimbabwe have good win but today again we have good start from the Ireland, and they took the good number of early wickets but at the end Zimbabwe having good comeback with good target on board now things are well-balanced for both teams and which will hold the nerve will win this match.
Ireland opening pair is on crease for their chase, and we have 6 runs from them in first over of the Ngarava good and thrilling match by these associate countries creating good hype for the cricketing fans, hopefully we will have another thrilling end of this match.
