LOL look at Pakistan!
In one stage everyone was thinking they were going to win but now they lost if by 6 runs!

I was thinking that I lost my money. Damn it! In one stage the odd for Australia was over 8.00 LOL

Pakistan is the most unpredictable team ever, they could not set the chase properly and end up loosing wickets rather than rotating the strikes and ended up chocking in the end, Australia bowled really well in the latter stages, even i thought Pakistan will win the match with the way they were batting.
Yesterday i saw the ending seqence of the match between KKR and Delhi and it was a real thriller as i was expecting Delhi to win but they lost wickets looking for big shots rather than playing smart and ended up being a tie, but Rabada bowled really well in the super over to give Delhi the win.

Let's talk about IPL in this thread: [Now FREE to JOIN] IPL 2019 Prediction Pool and discussion

About Pakistan vs Australia. Pakistan team really needs to improve in psychologically. May be they need a good captain. Overall the chasing was not bad but at the end they could not hung it on.

Anyway, the last and fifth ODI will be starting soon. As always my bet is for Australia today.

I don't see the hunger in them to win and no strategic plan at all . I agree with you when you say maybe its time for them to get a good captain . Indians never realize the worth of captains like MSD whereas Pakistan never seem to get a captain like him.

Just when it looked like Pakistan were finally going to win a match they go and lose it once again. We have seen this happen many times in the past few years where Pakistan look like having control of the game but then they collapse and until they get this sorted they won't have any chance at winning matches in the future. To have two batsman score centuries in an ODI match and lose is very poor batting from the rest of the team.

Well, there could be some changes that can be done. We learn from.mistakes and this could lead them to win the at present. Probably it happeb before because of not having a good luck.

Just like the basketball the ball is round so there is no way for now to be sure who will going to win. Besides, it is a contest so everyone will do their best to win the match.

Australia is once again looking strong against Pakistan, with a score of 327 runs. With the body language of Pakistani batsmen, it seems like they're already so sure that they won't be able to score the target of 328 runs, LOL!

Series whitewash in progress...

That's the sad end of the series if you're supporter of Pakistan.     I think it is time that cricket board of Pakistan should make some serious changes in the team and structure otherwise it  will be difficult to survive in the International cricket.

Series whitewash in progress...

The current Pakistan team has some great players like Haris Sohail and Abid Ali, but the primary problem that I have observed with them is their lower order who bat like newbies.

They could have changed the outcomes of several games(Example: 4th and 5th ODIs), but they ended up collapsing badly and handed the match to Australia. They need to focus on improving their lower order batsmen.

Another win for Australia makes it a clean sweep of the series against Pakistan. Usman Khawaja threw a away a century playing a missed timed shot to mid wicket, he has had an excellent series and should keep his spot in the Australian team for the World Cup. Finch will also most likely keep his spot after winning the man of the series so Australian selectors will have some tough decisions to make. I'm sure that Smith comes back in to sure up the middle order as that's where Australia have a weakness in my opinion and Smith will be rock solid in the middle order and Australia will be a well balanced team for the World Cup. The question is will Warner get to play? I think Smith and Warner will both play in the warm up matches as they lack match fitness even though they have been playing in T20 leagues around the world.

Australia is playing really well and start clicking at the right time before the world cup and the selectors will have a hard time to pick the playing eleven as everyone is in form at the moment and with Warner and Smith coming back, it is a good head ache they have, i am sure Warner will open the innings with Finch and Smith in the middle order is the combination we will see in the world cup.

Steve Smith doesn't look in good touch since he came back but warner is in tremendous form and he is holding the orange cap on the current running IPL tournament so he is clearly showing his ability and why he need to be on the world cup squad.

Warner has played like he was never out of the international matches for 1 year. He continued the form form where he had left and played all the 3 superb innings and made a century in the previous match means that OZ world cup team has now the best opener batsman.

This is true. Warner is on fire these days and he will be a tremendous asset for the Australian World cup squad. On the other hand, I feel that Steve Smith will be selected since they might not judge him solely based on his IPL performances.

Well finally a 5 - 0 whitewash for Australia.
It was a good series for Australia. They are unbeaten in the last 8 matches. Seems like they are enjoying their win.

I am reconsidering my world cup tops. I would not wonder if Australia win it. What do you guys think?

It is not going to change anything, as Pakistan is a relatively weak team. I would admit that the prospects of the Australian team once they are able to defeat teams such as India, England and South Africa regularly. Their opening combo of Khawaja/Finch is very inconsistent and the pacers such as Behrendorff and Richardson are not really world class.

To be fair with Pakistan, they were playing with new players in the whole series for the experiment sake. they are still a very dangerous side in the world because of their unpredictable performance.

Oz clicking everything right atm now their bench strength looks very strong as well, every player competing for World cup squad. for world cup semis I would like to see.

India VS Pakistan and Australia VS England.

And Final between India vs England.

They already beat India 3 times in a row. India came up with a lame excuse that they were doing experiment.

Is this the fixer for Semi and Final in your mind?

I would like to see and India vs Australia final or Australia vs England final.

India vs Pakistan fixture is in my mind and every cricket fan, notably in ICCI mind too because this fixture alone can cover all expenses of World cup and if by any chance they both playing final against each other then ICCI will say now Lambo now Moon lol.

I am still not sure that Australia going into finals. not ignoring their recent performance and capabilities, momentum is with them and there is no doubt about that but I am backing the teams with their 1-year performance.

This scenario can change with only one game let's say Pakistan, Australia or any other team beating India and England in Semis. all we need is one bad day for the team and they are out from the World cup race.

Pakistan will no longer be there and it's confirmed. Australia is likely to play final because their recent performance is better than any other team. In final, Australia will face India or England, or South Africa? I think India and Australia will play final, I have changed my words though. Previously I said India and England.

Yup. I would admit that their performance against India was exceptional. I was only saying that the present Pakistan team is not exactly top-ranking material. The Aussies don't have any international matches before the world cup. So the performance of Australian players such as Lynn, Tye, Cutting, Warner, Smith, Watson, and Behrendorff during the IPL will give a good idea about their current form. Their first match in the CWC is against Afghanistan, and I expect them to win with ease.

I doubt South Africa will make it to the Final. Chocker will chock in the semi maximum.

The final will be in between Australia and India/England but Australia will lift the world cup.

Damn! how can I say all these? :-P

[tanvir232]

IPL 2019, Match 16, DC vs SRH,Delhi losing their last seven wickets for just eight runs in Mohali in their last game,would like to forget that game quickly and concentrate on the upcoming clashes.SRH are in some amazing form at the moment and their top-order is doing the bulk of the scoring.i will go with SRH for their all-round performance.

Anything can happen in the World Cup, I think it will be out of 5 teams. Lets not forget about New Zealand, I know their form hasn't been as good but they have a good team that can surprise and make the final. Its going to be a competitive World Cup that's for sure.
