Cricket match prediction discussions

The wickets of Australia are falling so fast and I really like the new bowler of India, Kuldeep, and can't believe it's his first test match where he took 4 wickets (and that too of the biggies). Smith played quite well but after he went, his team is struggling but Wade managed to make the score reach 300 atleast. The score is quite low for both teams and I hope India manages to play well and not lose early wickets. I guess Nair is playing in Virat's place.

Yes he bowled superbly and Great start from Kuldeep. He bowled like an experienced bowler, and yes he picked big wickets. India managed to restrict AUS just 300 runs. But don't know how they will bat tomorrow. The important match they missed his captain Kohli this is bad luck for India Team. But I hope Rahane can handle his team let's see how Indians will bat tomorrow.

India missing some key batsmen and it will be tough for them but they mist be used to the conditions in Dharmala and should at least score 350 odd runs in the first innings. Initially while Smith and Warner made good partnership and the Indian bowling wasnt working, I thought that the game would end up as draw as Australia were looking comfortable and would have batted through over 1 and a half days. Wickets started falling as soon as Warner got out and the game seems to have shifted into India's favor. Interesting to see how attacking do Australians field tomorrow.

Austrailia after losing the first wicket Warner and Smith played well. I thought they would make bg score in first innings. But after losing Warner wicket, no one expects that they will get all out just for 300 runs. Anyway, it's not a bad score. But at least they manage to play 1 and half day play. Now I think this game will get 100% result this will not end as a Draw.

Bangladesh trashed Srilanka and it is a top performance from the visitors ,Tamim Iqbal and Shakib Al Hasan played really well and scored 144 runs for the fourth wicket and it helped them reach a total of 324 runs and chasing that Srilanka could only reach 234 runs, Srilanka is playing with an inexperienced side and they have to play really well to win a match.

Now without Virat, everything is on Rahane's shoulders only (although I doubt how he'll handle it) and this is the first time I'm seeing him as a captain. The team played well today and if the batsmen too contribute runs tomorrow and don't lose wickets soon, they have the potential to make 350-400+ like in the earlier match. The good thing this time is that the first innings of Australia is already over and now they have 4 more days for 3 innings.

Australia were looking good to post a big 1st innings total with Smith at the crease but he hardly had any help from anyone else except for Warner and Wade both making half centuries. If just one of them went on to make a hundred then Australia would of reached 400+ runs like I thought they would but they didn't thanks to some great bowling by India, Yadav bowled well for his 4 wickets and was India's best bowler for the day. Now we will see if Australia can bowl well and restrict India to around the same total.

To be honest I don't have that confidence in Rahane as he is not a mature player yet when it comes to a Test cricket but I think the opening partnership will be most crucial for India as Rahul and Vijay both are in good form so at least they take score board to 100 without giving a wicket then it will release some pressure for other batsman and if India looses early wicket then everything will depend on Pujara's innings.

India need to bat well at least in first two sessions of the match and if India gets good start from the openers then it can help India in building up a high score and take a lead in first innings as Indian bowlers have done their duty very well today by restricting Australia to 300 so now its responsibility of batsmen to perform according to their reputation and caliber.

Australia didn't make use of that good start and lost most of the wickets towards end very cheaply. Indian spinners did a good job in this match and as you said now they need to build good partnerships to score more than 300 runs.

Today 3rd test between South Africa and New Zealand has started already. South Africa won the toss and elected to bat first. They already lost three quick wickets just for 63 runs in 23 overs. So far SA has won one match, and another match ended in a draw. Now MZ will try their best to equalise the series by winning this match. NZ has started good in this test match and let's see how they will continue until the end.

Well if you look at the odds you will understand why NZ has less chance of winning this match . Odds for draw is 1.4 and odds for NZ is 6 , this is because of weather condition . Day 1 match has been delayed due to wet outfield but if you wanna take risk against SA and weather then you can bet on NZ to win this one.

New Zealand are doing pretty well. They have taken 4 wickets of South Africa and given away 123 runs. Hashim Amala made a smart 50 but is back in the pavilion now. The pitch is helpful to the bowlers and if rain doesn't intervene, we will have a result in this match.

SA manage to score 258 runs for eight wickets, and if they add another 50+ runs, then it will be a decent score. But today match has delayed to due to rain, and if the rain continues then, NZ will be disappointed and also it is not good for the batting team.

Ausies have completed their first innings scoring 300 in a much better way to get adverse towards a winning. Today's play is a much important to both the teams. Developing partnership from the beginning helps India move with courage and if continued wicket fall takes place, the match might go single sided.

No doubt 300 is a good score to have but I think it was great show by Indian bowlers especially from Yadav which made Australia to restrict at 300 or else the score of 400 was easily achievable at this surface and now India needs a good partnership and if that happens then India can take a good lead in first innings which can bring Australia under pressure.

I am not going to argue that 300 runs is not a good score but if you look at the start they got and the partnership with Warner and Smith ,i thought they will be going to score above 450 runs even in this match,but full credits to the debut player who took all the wickets,hope India scores and with one batsmen less they have to play really well to win this match.

Australia are slightly behind, because 300 is not a hugely advantageous score. India can easily overcome it if a couple of batsmen click. The first session will be crucial and if India can avoid losing wickets, they will be the favourites.

Yes i do think they could have scored more runs and with India having just five proper batsmen it will be really hard for them to make some competitive score unless the openers gives a good partnership as well as Pujara and Rahane are the main players to take this team to victory and if they could perform well then India does have a chance to win the match.

Draw has odds of 4.6 and I don't understand why . India @ 1.6 but I thought 300 was a pretty good score here . I am going for Draw now as the odds are too impressive , if India give a lead of 40-50 then I think this match will end as draw if Aussies play well in the second innings.

Dont think the match will end up as draw. 300 is a decent score but since Australia batted just 1 day, the match might go on to a conclusion. Remember in the previous test match how Aus hard to bat through the day and some players had to pull of the best performance of their career to save the game? This time the first innings will be over faster and should be enough time for India to chase in the 2nd Innings.

Actually I have made a big bet on Aussies to win the match. Now I just spent a few bucks so that If it ends as draw I won't loose anything  , you think India will win this one? I would say we have to wait and watch what happens in the 2nd innings of Australian batting .

India are currently looking good batting so far only losing the 1 wicket for 64 runs. The danger man Pujara is in and batting well and if he can stay there for the next 2 sessions then i think India will pass 300 runs and maybe even post a big total like they did in the last test match and then it will be very hard for Australia to safe the game as there will most likely be a lot of time left for India to win. Australia need some quick wickets to put the pressure back on India.

I have bets going on, on Pujara and Rahul to complete their half centuries. I think its highly likely that they do so. They are batting with control and can easily make 150 runs partnership between the two. The runrate is going to take a hit but thats not of much importance right now. Odds on India to win is reducing now.

India is playing really careful and are moving the score like a snail and they have to be careful in building a good partnership and i am sure they could make a good lead in the first innings if they are playing like this,everyone has to chip in and make on building a good partnership.

Rahul lost his wicket at 60 so your one bet is won as he has hit half centuries. If indian batsman bat good and give score above 500+ then they can put pressure on Australia in second Innings by taking wickets soon. Pace bowlers are getting much turn which they can utilize and take wicket if today India play with just loosing only 4 wickets and make score above 300+ then Australia will come under pressure.
