Cricket match prediction discussions

[vella85]

Witnessed one of the worst performance from team India in a very long time and they fell into the trap they created as O'Keefe took 12 wickets in the match and destroyed the famed Indian batsmen. In another match South Africa destroyed NewZealand as they bowled out for 112 runs chasing a score of 271.

Yeah everyone believed India makes a strong comeback in the second innings, but the scenario is the same as the first innings. The pressure gets initiated after losing in the home ground after giving successful and continued win for a long. Australia team were really the champions. I think Australia easily takes the series.

This win for Australia was due to India made the pitch spinner friendly for their spinner benefit to win the test match but that went wrong for them itself as Australia spinner made it benefit for them and took early wickets of India and as almost all Australia players are experienced with the ground of india by playing in IPL that benefit is paying them now. Next match will be interesting as now India have to regain the match to win if not they will lose this series.

Well that was the gamble the Indians took by making the pitch a spinners pitch. They would of seen how Australia played in Sri Lanka on spinning wickets and saw how bad they were so I can see why they made it a spinners pitch. I think Australia did learn a lot from the Sri Lanka tour playing on wickets like this and that went a long way into them winning the match. Not sure if the IPL really helps as not many of the current Australian players play in the IPL, I think it was more so the Sri Lanka tour that has helped them play better on these types of pitches.

I like Australians because they are best in adopting situation very quickly just because of this they won first test even this was completely spinners track they have no answer for Keef what he done they are still in shock and now thinking what is next plan for next tests

Today got a fifth one-day match between Zimbabwe and Afghanistan. Now both teams have won two matches each and series is level. Today's match will decide the winner of this series. Afghanistan won first two matches and last two matches won by Zimbabwe. Now Zimbabwe looks quite confident after recent winnings, but I still feel that Afghanistan is better team compared to Zimbabwe, so I think today Afghanistan is going to win this match.

Afghanistan won the match by 106 runs(D/L method). Afghan bat first and made good target they scored 253 runs in 50 overs with the loss of 9 wickets. After that Zimbabwe started batting and the full team collapsed just for 54 runs. Only 2 batsmen scored double-digit remaining all batsman got out for a single digit. With this win, Afghanistan won the series by 3-2 congrats.

Afghanistan are going from strength to strength. Their victory against a full member team in an ODI series augurs well for associate nations. Even though the final deciding match was rain curtailed, Afghanistan's strong batting performance ensured that Zimbabwe were given a high target (Required run rate of 7.3 at the start). And then their bowlers completed the job.

If they play like a T20 match, then the target was not that high, but Zimbabwe didn't even try to reach that target. Afghanistan is the overall best team compared to Zimbabwe. I think soon or later this Afghanistan team will become one of the best cricket team if they get more and more international games experience.

That's right as now it puts all the pressure on India. Will they go with another spinning wicket in the 2nd test match or change? as now they have seen what Steve O'Keefe can do. It will be interesting to see and everyone will be expecting India to put in a better performance then what they just showed.

India were downplayed this time by Australia in all department. It will be difficult moving from here unless they show the resistance and determination to go out and play their natural game.

There are 3 matches left in this series and India has all the capability to put themselves together and win atleast one of the remaining matches . I think next match is gonna end as draw because Australia will come out with full confidence and play well , on the other hand India will give their best to win the match so I am guessing it will end as draw.

I think Australia and India next match will be keenly contested as India would like to level up the series and the Aussies have the momentum going with them, so it will be interesting to see what happens next. I think Aussies would go in unchanged but team India really needs to change their approach and the team. I think getting one batsman in makes more sense and changing the batting line up is also required to provide more stability. Waiting to see what new changes take place in the Indian side, let's hope for a cracker of a match.

One bowler in the Australian line up messed up the entire plan India had and Keefe is the man to be tamed if India is looking to play in spinning wickets if not he will once again run through the famed Indian batting line up once again.Claiming 12 wickets in a test match and that too against a home team is not a small feat.Hope India will challenge them in their next match and regain the momentum.

I think the next test will mostly end up as a draw. India will be well aware about the spin and will have the track flat helping their seamers more. Indian fast bowlers have been reliable recently and anyways, Indian spinners are sort of used to bowling on flat surface anyways. The 2nd test will be held at M.Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore. India have played 21 matches there winning 6, Lost 6 and drew 9.

Bangalore, M.Chinnaswamy Stadium. This pitch is renovated recently, and India played one game on this pitch against England after this renovation. India won the game. As per my knowledge yes this test may en with a draw. Because this pitch is good for the batsman and it is batting pitch. We can expect more centuries I this ground. So both teams have strong batting lineup. I am not sure this match will get a result or not.

Australia does not have a very strong batting line up to think that it will be a draw,India messed up a couple of sessions and they really did not have an answer to the Australian spinners and so is the reason they lost the match and Australia did not score a ton of runs but India just played really bad in both innings and one the worst batting performance from India in a very long time.

[Clement Kaliyar]

Afghanistan won the match and the series against Zimbabwe and it was a really fought contest. And in the final match chasing a score of 253 scored by Adghanistan,Zimbabwe lost all their wickets for just 54 runs and Amir Hamza and Mohammad Nabi took three wickets each and Rashid Khan took two wickets to fold them and win the series.

Not sure that this is true as Australia do have a strong batting line up, the middle order are young players that have proven that they can play on batting pitches so if the pitch is going to be for batters then I think Australia can match it with India's batsman. Also Australia in my opinion have a much better pace attack so I think it will suite Australia more if the pitch is like most of us think it will be.

Australian is currently full of new and young players they are here in India for something to prove hope they will do very good on batting pitches now this series is going to be very interesting because first match done a great shock for home team now they need to do some hard work in next matches

[SaShiRaJaVu]

@vella85 Australia is playing with a new team and most of the players are not having any experience playing in India and if not for the sub par performance from the Indian batsmen we would have seen a struggling sight of Australia. Full credits to the Australian spinners for snatching the match from India and a bold innings played by Clarke and Starc ,leaving them behind where is the next best performance and you think they have the temperament to face the Indian spinners.

New Zealand will be facing South Africa in the 4th ODI of the series and New Zealand has to win two games in a row to win the series if not they will surrender their unbeaten home record to South Africa and i hope a good match rather than the one sided matches we saw earlier.

The last game was one-sided, and i think in this match we will get nice entertainment. And yes South Africa is leading this series by  2-1. New Zealand must win this match to alive in this series. I think SA will win this game. They are in very much confident, and the batsman is in good form. NZ have home pitch support but don't know how they will use this advantage. My choice is SA.

South Africa is a very strong team and with all the best batsmen in the world is stacked in the team it is really difficult for New Zealand to win even though they are playing in their home grounds. Even with their top bowlers not in the team South Africa is bowling really well .

New Zealand requires another 187 runs to win this match and still eight wickets and 33.0 overs remaining in this match. SA has scored 279 runs in 50 overs for eight wickets. So far NZ has done an excellent job in chasing 280 runs. They should keep wickets and build slowly partnerships for another 10 overs then later on they can go for big shots and can win this match easily but main thing is they shouldn't lose many wickets.
