Cricket match prediction discussions

This Australian side does not have the fire to Win a match. Keeping wickets was terrible. Most of the games won by India was one sided with no thrill finish. Aussies lost no doubt but yes they never gave up! Pitch and conditions excuse just doesn't hold good.

Australia has just lost thier dignity from cricket in recent time. they are playing very disappointing way. in this series, they never seemed that they were a strong team. especially their batsman showed terrific bad performance. I am sure though bowlers performed more or less well they surely missed Stark and Hazlewood. if both could play then result would have been different.

Like all other teams Australia also getting many new players because all those old best players already retired. It is the common thing all teams need to face when their experienced players not there in the team. Also, most of these young players play more short format cricket nowadays so that consistency is not there just come and hit. Just look at SL team now, they also got all new players and their performance is very very bad.

Well they are doing well in bowling but batting isn't upto the mark right now , I think they can come back to their winning form if they try more all-rounders like Stoinis .

Indian pitches are mostly supporting for spin bowling, and Australian batsman is not so good on these pitches, and that's why we see most of their batsmen failed to score big runs. But if you notice 4th match whether played was a flat pitch, and that's why Australian batsman can manage to score good runs and won the match. Even Indian team goes to Australia they will also face similar issues to bat on fast and bouncy tracks.

This issue for not only these two its for all teams because home teams take advantage and prepare pitches for supporting own teams ICC doing many reforms they need to check this as well and bring system that all test and one day pitches must support both teams this can bring more interest for fans also because this will bring more entertainment for them

BCC (Indian cricket board) is worlds richest cricket board and I don't think ICC can put pressure on them because ICC is earnings are more from where ever Indian team is playing cricket. But anyway if India goes to Australia then they have to face the same situation like what Australia as faced in India. For this, you should develop a skill to play both on fast and spin pitches instead blaming on pitches.

Yes BCC is the highest revenue generating cricket board, and it has the capacity to change ICC decisions. But to preparing pitches, it completely depends on country board where the event is the host. ICC can just give instructions, but I think no one will follow that everyone will prepare pitch like supporting the home team. That is why the away teams players will suffer to play on away pitches.

This has been old debate and will be continue in the future as well. There is nothing wrong to prepare the pitches according to the requirements of the host countries , opponent should be ready to accept the challenges to adopt and perform in the different playing conditions.

SL snatched the victory from Pakistan in their 1st Test match by wining it by just 22 runs. On last day 16 wickets fall and Pakistan lost 1st time any test in Abu Dhabi. Herath took 400th wicket and overall 6 wicket in 2nd inning. He was Man of the Match for his terrific spell helping SL clinch the 1-0 in 2 match series.

Sri Lanka must be counting their lucky stars here. A target of 136 wasn't expected to challenge the Pakistani line up, especially in Abu Dhabi. Pakistan have lost a test match for the first time at this venue.

It was a extra ordinary performance by the Sri Lankan bowlers. Sri Lankan team were going through a bad phase; their morale was really low after losing the back to back matches against india and this win was much needed for them. Herath made the difference as the target was very easy to chase down, but he bowled brilliantly. Once again, it has been proved that Pakistani team is unpredictable and they lack the consistency.

Its not new topic Pakistan is unpredictable because we have long history losing matches like this currently no senior batsman available all new they fail to play under pressure just because of this lost this match very cheaply Herath is very good against Pakistan in past also take 100 wickets in just 20 tests not bad at all

Yes, being whitewashed in a home ODI series is something new for the Sri Lankan team. They have got their mojo back against Pakistan now. If West Indies had played a bit better against England, then Sri Lanka would have had to play the qualifiers to get into the World Cup. Thankfully, that didn't happen.

As you said, Pakistan performance can't predict in all departments don't when they will come with full force to destroy opponents or they can easily lose a match against any weak team in the world. Maybe because players are fixing the matches so their performance will not be same in all matches. Many players get caught in match fixes so never bet on in any matches when they are playing.

yes Pakistan is an unpredictable team. And nowadays we are seeing many players are involved in match fixing. This will affect the game result. So how they will perform in particular game, we can not predict. Putting money on Pakistan is a risk.

South Africa vs Bangladesh 2nd test. I think the home team will have more advantage and they may win this match.

South Africa is the favorite for the second test match against the bangladesh. It will be a tough task for Bangladesh to beat the strong South African team in their home, that too after the huge defeat in the first match by 333 runs. Bangladesh really need some extraordinary performances to level the series.

Another factor which will add to the variability is that it will be a day night test match. Both Sri Lanka and Pakistan are relatively new to playing day night test matches. The pink ball behaves differently. I would still pick Pakistan in this one.

I think SA is much better team compared to Bangladesh so even though SA play outside their home pitches still they have a better chance to win the match against Bangladesh. If Bangladesh plays at home they surely they will come up with spin pitches but SA also got a couple of good spinners and they can play better than Australia against spin bowling.

South Africa are miles ahead. Bangladesh have given some strong performances at home, but that won't help them here.
If you look at the bookies offs for Bangladesh winning, you will realize that it needs a miracle for that to happen.

[onrise]

Bangladesh after winning the toss decided to field and would not be happy with the start SA have got it. They are 162 without a wicket means 500+ runs should be on the board easily fo SA and Bangladesh will be in the tremendous pressure right from the beginning itself.  Both the opening batsman are playing well are at 78 runs each.

Two opening batsman of South Africa is playing tremendously good. Elgar and Markram already completed their century. The score being 211 now, I also think 500+ on scoreboard is justifiable as zero wickets are down. Bangladesh won the toss, should have selected to bat first it seems now.

First wicket for Bangladesh after long time opening stand broken after reaching 243 but another whale on crease as Amla joining here with bang today they are going to do nearly 380 to 400 which could be disaster for Bangladesh as they could be in huge pressure
In Sri Lanka vs Pakistan match after winning first test Sri Lanka is in driving seat in second already 115 just lost of one wicket they can manage to reach 350+ which could very good for them as home team is already under pressure and can go down and lost this series badly

Sri Lanka lost 3 wickets for 159 runs. I think they can manage to score 250+ runs at the end of the day. This is test match if they play to make more runs then they will lose wickets. i think Pakistan can take 2 more wickets today. Now only we can not guess this test match who will win.

South Africa start was excellent both the openers scored a century. Elger 113 and Aiden 143 runs. now SA 293/3. I am expecting one more century from Amla.

Today South Africa done great job as touch 428/3 Amla 89 and Duplessi on 63 expecting some quick fire from them tomorrow in first session hope they have target of 600+ which can give them very healthy advantage and an inning win because Bangladesh away record is very poor specially in South Africa
Another very slow start from UAE as run rate is under 3 and home team doing very hard work but captain and Karuna both reach 100+ partnership this could be also very interesting match in last 2 days

Very good batting by the South African batsman, SA is in the good position and they have a golden chance to put mountainous score in front of Bangladesh which will be very difficult for them to reach.

South Africa is already going at almost 5 an over in a test match!! They don't need to up their pace any more. I don't think they need more than 3.5 days to bowl out Bangladesh twice.
