Cricket match prediction discussions

[JSRAW]

Major ICC events are primarily elite teams that are favored by the ICC. England, Australia, India are definitely on top of this list. In particular, ICC prepares the schedule for major tournaments according to how India wants to play and when it wants to play. If India has a problem with playing a match then ICC postpones that match for India. Basically, India bears a large part of the expenses of the ICC, that is why India gets so much advantage in all kinds of tournaments. In front of Women's World Cup and ICC first proposed to India whether they will host the World Cup but India did not do it so it is very likely that the Women's World Cup is going to be organized in Bangladesh while this Women's World Cup was supposed to be hosted directly by Bangladesh.

Let's go with the recent example of T-20 WC in the Caribbean and USA. The timezone was ridiculous for obvious reasons and raised a few eyebrows as far as Indian fixtures were concerned. Broadcasters paid billions of dollars for the Indian market so they had to facilitate the Indian market with a Prime time slot. If not, then no broadcaster will overpay for the ICC tournament, which was the case in this cycle and no wonder it's already loss making affair for the Stars and they are about to merge Disney India with Reliance JIO.

And it's not the worst case. The worst scenario would be no broadcaster paying too much money to ICC, it will directly affect all the parties.

Regarding Women's WC. Firstly, ICC didn't offer BCCI anything, The ICC tournament is based on a rotation basis and Bangladesh was chosen (way back in 2022-23) for the 2024 Women's T-20 WC but recent turmoil in Bangladesh created a headache for ICC and then ICC requested BCCI, which they declined because why would they host back to back 3 ICC tournament? It's not 70s-80s.  


2025 Women's ODI WC (India)
2024 Women's T-20 WC (UAE, almost confirmed)
2026 Men's T-20 WC (India and SL)

Last T20 World Cup was a disaster. And not just because of the time zone. The tournament was scheduled during rainy season, and a number of matches (including those involving the Indian team) were washed out. A few more matches were impacted and overs were cut short. The broadcasters were pissed off, but the ICC just ignored their concerns. For the next cycle (2028-31), I am not expecting a repeat of the $3.04 billion deal that they got for the current cycle. They would be lucky if they get $2 billion.

Congratulations to vanuatu for their upcoming matches and for winning this game. Vanuatu played a fantastic match. They will continue to play like this in the future. Vanuatu won the game by 36 runs. The 4th match between Vanuatu and Fiji was held at the country faleata oval stadium. Fiji won the toss and elected to batting first. Andrew Mansale is a very talented player for Vanuatu team member. Vanuatu total runs for 157 and wining the match. Fiji total runs for 121 and lost the match. Fiji played a very bad match and they made their fans very angry. Their team needs hard work now. The best batting performance in the Vanuatu team was by Andrew Mansale scored  82 runs and 50 balls hitting 8 fours and 3 sixs. I hope Fiji they will play better in the future matches. They should work hard for the upcoming matches.

Vanuatu performed well in this match and deserve to be congratulate.  If they continue to play like this from now on it can only be beneficial for them.  And it a good team too.  And it was not a simple margin win, it involved a lot of hard work and pressure from their bowlers.  And the real win role should also go to their bowler.  Vanuatu batsmen need to work on their pace.  Because most teams reach the target of 150.  So their batsmen should be able to target up to 170.  And their bowler also took 9 wickets and won the match by 36 runs.  Congratulations to them for their win and Fiji batsmen need to work on their pace as they did not meet the target of 150.  And if they cannot succeed in this they will continue to fail.And the opposing teams will continue to win matches and strengthen themselves.

India and Pakistan are eternal rivals as always. The game of these two teams on the cricket field means an extra boost and excitement among the fans. We don't see any domestic series between India and Pakistan even if the ICC wants it because there is political disparity between them. As a result, no country is willing to play the series.

India vs Pakistan matches are high voltage matches with the highest attendance. We have seen in many World Cups that more tickets are sold when the matches are played between India and Pakistan than when the other teams are playing. The fans want to see the match between these two teams on the field and even to see which team wins with their own eyes, for which they come to the stadium to watch the match between India and Pakistan despite many hardships. We might enjoy a high voltage match between Pakistan and India in the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy.

Now this rivalry is almost ended due to huge difference of quality between these countries game India is clearly on advantage and Pakistan is losing badly due to their internal issues things are getting the worst day by day for them even ICC is still having good success for gaining good amount of funds just because of creating hype through Indian media because they are crazy about cricket, but now their rivalry is with Australia which is also having good quality and consistency to handle them in all conditions.

Indian cricket fans surely love to enjoy every moment because now they are having enough things to celebrate and enjoy but in Pakistan they are having too many problems which are preventing them from having any entertainment through cricket or related things now most chances we will have no India in Pakistan despite too much hype about this.

You can't have your cake and eat it too. India is dominating the cricket revenue market, because they follow free market economy. Pakistan on the other hand has put so many restrictions, including conditions to share cricket streams with the national broadcaster. As a result, revenues from Pakistan is just 2-3% of that of India. Same goes for Bangladesh as well. On the other hand, Australia and England contribute much more to the revenues, despite their relatively small population size.
