Well the picks for me in 2019 is the India/New Zealand matches as New Zealand are in super hot form right now and will be tough to beat at home even in ODI matches. The biggest one of all is of course the world cup as there are a few teams with a good chance at winning it next year. Then of course the Ashes to see if England can win them back which should see the Australian side have Warner and Smith return so its going to be an interesting year of cricket next year and I can't wait.

Sri Lanka won the 2nd T20 match with a good score, Sakhib done a good job with batting and bowling and score a quick run, but west indies with a good start but not able to finish it and lost it. Now the T20 series is level 1-1 and 3rd match will be decider.

Same India Test match is also now level 1-1 after India loosing as the top order did not performed well.

Bangladesh*
Yeah they did a great job , that was some fearless batting from Shakib and the skipper himself . Although they look tired and couldn't score much in the last 2 overs they did a good job putting up that total . WI did well too but lost too many wickets between 7-13 overs .

Bangladesh nailed this match as they made 211 runs in 20 overs which is an average of 10+ runs per over. This was their match and Shakib gave all round performance with bat and ball and was player of the match . With this win series is now 1-1 and even Bangladesh confidence to win the series will boost with this win.

It was Bangladesh who won this match and not Srilanka, they played smart cricket and won the game. At one point I felt they would not be able to hold out for a victory, but then West Indies batmans let themselves down.
India vs Australia series just got interesting, with the series tie now both teams shall try their best to win it. Also I feel that Indian Captain banter was unnecessary, I think it back fired and cost them the match what do you'll think.

Sorry for mistake, it was Bangladesh and today their is the final T20 of this series and who ever wins will win the T20 series, Bangladesh will try to win this T20 match and series so they will win all odi, test and now T20 against west indies.

3rd Test between OZ and India is going to start on Christmas day which is 25th. India would like to get the good opening combination which can give a start of like 50 - 70 runs without losing a wicket. The main problem at present is top batting order which is not able to perform.

26* Dec, Boxing day test match

I am just worried about the team or opening pair combination Tbh. having said that, I Have a feeling that we are going to win this test match  otherwise will spend my new year with Old Monk and bitching about Indian team lol

Bangladesh won the toss and took bowling, as they know that West Indies are good at chasing and Bangladesh have a good bowling. AFter a good start West Indies started to give wickets but the Run Rate is good if they are able to score above 200+ will be good but they have to bowl well and if they take early wickets then they have chances of winning the T20 and T20 series also.

But Bangladesh lost today's match and the series too.West Indies again proved their dominance in T20 format by beating the hosts by walloping 50 runs margin. It is a big win for West Indies and I guess this may motivate them morally to perform well in other formats too. A must mention : KMA Paul's contrinution to today's match. He took 5 wickets in four over by leaking only 15 runs. Hope he may find spots in other formats and in IPL too.

It ended disastrous for Bangladesh as they lost the match by 50 runs and with this they also lost the series to WI by 2-1. Chasing such score is never easy for any team and said that they would like to take positives from this series and take it forward as they are the good site and would like to start winning now the important matches as well.

They managed to lose match despite poor umpiring decision and ICC rules going in their favour.

I feel that Liton Das should walk out from the crease in a good spirit of the game after seeing that No ball blunder in Big Giant screen. but Winning the game and series is important too . Would like to hear any Bangladeshi point of view in this matter for an obvious reason. ex: Nidahas trophy saga etc

Ravi Shastri is really acting like a Cheerleader.

I read somewhere that Australia is going to play a 7 years old spinner for the Boxing Day test match against India.
Is it a reliable news are just a rumor or something about toss. I checked with the Australia cricket's Twitter handle and found this : https://twitter.com/cricketcomau/status/1076661900170022913

India is into big trouble as their front-line spinners are injured and probably they may not get ready for this iconic Boxing Day test match.

India may be the number one ranked test side but winning in Australia against Australia that too in test cricket match is not a simple task. I believe drawing the remaining two matches of the series will be a very big task for India considering the moral boost Australia got in the second test match. India is really suffering with their injured players, Prithivi Shaw's injury must be a very big concern for them. The upcoming Boxing Day test match may end up in three or four days itself as I am expecting it will be one sided, in Australia favor.

It sounds wired. I guess this must be a rumor. How they will risk an important match with a kid ?

Bengalis' experience isn't paying off at all; with years of experience, players like Tamim Iqbal, Shakib ul Hassan, Mushfiqur Rahim, and Mahmudullah are still unable to deliver anything at all.

I seriously think the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) should start working on youngsters, instead of hoping for good performances by the seniors, this ain't working good for a while!

They have to search for new talents but you cannot judge them with the performance against WI in the twenty over format as West Indies do have a strong line up for the format and they could beat any team and if you look at the T20 tournaments around the globe, majority of the teams have players from WI and they are making a good living with these tournaments.
Waiting for the third test against Australia and India, India is struggling with injury and hopefully they will get new players for the opening slot as the current pair is a complete failure.

Guys this child won't be playing lol they have given him the captain role as he suffered with cancer when he was a baby so this is for the make a wish foundation where they grant children wishes and it was this boys wish to captain the Australian team in a Boxing day test match. He will also be walking out onto the field for the toss of the coin to make him feel apart of the match but apart from that he won't be playing.

Its going to be an interesting match as both teams might make some changes with Finch in doubt to play and Handscomb might be dropped for another player while India will also need to make some decisions on their opening pair and if their front line spinners will be fit to play. Australia have a very good record playing in this Boxing day test match where Australia have only lost 8 Boxing day test matches since the first Boxing day test started in 1950. The last loss was in 2010 where England won by an innings and 157 runs. India have only manged to draw on two occasions and on every other occasion they have been thrashed. So its going to be an interesting match.
