Cricket match prediction discussions

[SaShiRaJaVu]

I would like to know does the srilankan cricket board allows their players to participate in other premier leagues? And county cricket? I haven't seen many players from srilanka in county or other premier leagues, they are lacking experience and their young blood is not getting enough exposure, i believe there should be a rule in all premier leagues around the world to include X amount of players from lower ranked teams so they can get experience from these Leagues. What do you think?

The main issue here is that the cricket leagues around the world scout people who are talented and could make an impact and there are some players playing in the leagues around the world and i do not think that the Srilankan board would stop anyone from playing.Sure they need international experience to play better cricket.

You consider Sri Lanka as a lower ranked team? Such concessions are usually available for associate nations and that is good. Afghanistan have benefited from their players playing in these leagues. You can't club Sri Lanka with them.

He's just being sarcastic on the current team for of Sri Lankan team.
The Sri Lanka itself have a stable cricketing structure from the lower level that insures a constant exposure to the Sri Lankan youths.
It's just a bad unstable time for the team.

Sir Lanka can bounce back from this situation but they need to act quickly because its happen to many teams like West Indies Zimbabwe and Pakistan they have some good local structure which can give them good players  like Jayasurya Sanga but need to act some fast because once they lost in this race then its very hard for them to bounce back as current cricket is going very fast and need quick decisions from high level peoples

Ireland seem to be giving a good account of themselves in the longer format of the game. They have reached 292/2 at the end of the first day of play against Netherlands. Usually, the associate teams don't have the patience to apply themselves over long periods of time.

Yes, they do allow their players to participate in world leagues and county cricket. If you see at Indian Premiere League (IPL), there were many Sri Lankan players in almost all the franchise. Sangakkara, Jaywardene, Dilshan were regular participant; even now also matthews, malinga, parera and many others are still playing in the global tournaments.

The old players got the opportunity to participate in many county tournaments like IPL, BPL and other tournaments also they played and still playing becasue they proved that they are good players in international cricket. In premier league, event any franchise will buy a player based on his performance, but the problem is SL does not have any private league like Ipl and etc. to show the young blood performance to franchises. That is why the young blood is not getting chances in other premier leagues.

Ireland is so confident about their win that they declared after 477 runs. I feel they should have waited till atleast 50 more runs as NL are also playing well. They are at 82 for 2 and though two players got out for cheap, Braak and Coopers are playing well and have handled the match. Still they trail by 395 runs and 3 more days left to go.

Regarding Indian cricket team, they have chosen Rohit as the vice-captain. It's a very good decision as I feel that he plans his game better than Virat and he has been the captain of MI for so many years wherein their team won most crucial games. Great decision!

it is very much challenging for them to get back their glorious days. they have lost some legendary players within a very short time.
especially I would like to mention the name of the batting legend, Sangakkara, and Mahela. they also lost some bowling master like Muralidharan. so they have to start from the baseline. their pipeline needs to be strong like Bangladesh and India. Sri Lanka cricket board needs to focus on the field level. in this case, they can take the help of their cricket legend.

I agree srilanka not having a top level league is hurting them right now, if they will not play against international players they will not get the experience they are a lacking. International level cricket is totally different from local, you won't get underpressure or be in different Situations. Srilankan board needs to do something about their cricket or else they will go down. More matches on international level is their only chance imo.

Ireland does seem to have gotten Netherlands into some sort of trouble. Netherlands are 140/5, with half their top team back in the pavilion. They have to play really well to save this match.

First test match is going to start between England and West Indies. If I'm not wrong, this match will be their first day-night Test and be playing with a pink-ball. Currently, WI performance is quite bad in all formats of the cricket game, and recently they didn't even qualify for a champion trophy. I don't know how they are going to perform in the test match and England is also playing at home and they are in superb form. I believe it will be an easy win for England team in this match.

Yup true, it will be their first Day-Night Test match. As for this series, I expect a straight whitewash. As you said WI are performing poorly from the last year in all formats, its true, they have been on the downward slope after the World cup t20 win. IMO They lack quality bowlers for test matches, they do have good batsmen if they get in and can be quiet explosive. The problem has always been the bowlers. Anyhow will be interesting to watch how they compete against England as compared to South Africa and what sorts of pitches will be prepared for this series.

WI is not performed well from last one year in test series. But today they are playing well. England won the toss and opted to bat first. WI picks first 2 wickets so early Mark Stoneman and Tom Westley got out for just 8 runs. Root and Cook are batting now the score is 50/2. If WI picks 2 more wickets early then this match is going to be very interesting. Let's see how WI will restrict England in their home ground.

Right now very crucial time in this test  for West Indies because Root and Cook both doing good if West Indies bowler succeeded to take one more wicket before lunch then this session belong to them because this partnership can all momentum of this test match if these both stay for some time then they can take away from opponents because they have not good batting side

WI team lacks experience while English team are enjoying a good season. We have seen plenty of results in these pitch so we could aspect it to be a easy win for the English team.

It will be real test for West Indies team. After the early success of two quick wickets, it seems that WI has lost their grip which helped english batsman to settle down on the crease. Cook and Root are playing brilliantly, they have already scored more than 75 runs and looking forward to convert it into century. WI desperately need few wickets to stay in the contest.

NL were not that bad. They too made a good score of 375 runs and now again Ireland are trying to put runs on board. I was right by saying that the score was not enough to defend but they managed to save 100-102 runs in the first innings. They instead should have waited for their first innings to end as not playing the second time will delay the match when already 3 days have passed. They should stop at 250 runs as now tomorrow is the last day and not enough for 2 innings. Now it looks like a draw.

West Indies has not used the early wickets advantage atleast they managed to take one more wicket means they will get hands on this innings but now time is over the 2 England batsman settled captain Root made century playing with 103 runs and Cook is heading to century his score is 85 runs.The total team score 215/2.
One more session left I think England will score 330+ runs.

England had won the toss and elected to bat. They are currently batting at 230/2 . Root has completed his century and Cook is playing in his 90's.  So England have got a solid start as expected and this will put WI under lot of pressure on first day itself. England must make above 500 with the start they have got and try to get a good 1st inning total so that they can take a lead by making WI all out in 1st inning quickly.

[kpcian]

what an innings as a captain, Joe Root has scored another century as a captain. he is leading his team at the front line. besides good captaincy, he has also performed as the best batsman of his team. he is still batting with a strong hand, 109 runs from 149 balls. he has already hit 20 boundaries. that is massive, so he scored 80 runs from the boundaries.The English team has got another good captain. I think England will win this test as well as the Test series against West Indies very easily. latest scores for England 235 for 2 wickets, still a full session is their hand. wow, that is called real dominance in the test match.
