Cricket match prediction discussions

[Sithara007]

I am seeing more conspiracy theories when the T20 World Cup started which looks funny, now every other team will try and help India to qualify which is funny. The possibility of India getting qualified is really slim.

The way New Zealand is playing against Namibia is worrying as i included them in a big parlay which is should have avoided as New Zealand is struggling to score big and if it is a modest total i fear Namibia could chase them.

New Zealand had both negatives and positives to take away from the match against Namibia. Their total was just 96 after 16 overs. But they smashed 65 runs in the next 4 overs, and finished at 161. Namibian bowlers were exceptional during the initial 80% of the innings, but they gave away the advantage during the last 20%. And this is typical for inexperienced teams. The middle overs (7-15 overs) seems to be an issue for the New Zealand batsmen. They are unable to keep the scorecard ticking.

Well the whole indian population of 1.3 billion would be watching the todays match between newzealand and afganistan and would be praying for an afganistan win. Yes newzealand are favorites to win this match but afganistan has the capability to win this match as well, and if that happens it would be something like a miracle that india qualifies after those two losses.

India already packed their bags knowing well what the result would be, BCCI announced a new coach in Rahul Dravid and these things were taken care during this period to reduce the backlash they were getting from the fans for the loss in the first two matches and they even announced that Rohit Sharma will be leading India in the white ball and the fate was in the ceiling.
One more match and India will play against a small team and will score some crazy runs and then fly back home  .

India lost to the two test teams (Pakistan and Afghanistan) and were hoping that their victories against minnows like Scotland, Namibia and Afghanistan would be enough to secure a playoff spot. Unfortunately that didn't worked out for them. The strongest two teams from the group are now progressing to the playoffs. Indians can take care of Black Lives Matter, no-cracker movement for Diwali and other useless things after they return home. Anyway they seemed more interested in activism than playing.

India lost to NewZealand and not Afghanistan.
It's just a bad luck that the Indian batsmen were not in the form in the start of the tornament and when they gained the form it was already too late. You don't get many chances in tornament like these. Each and every match is important and it's always difficult to come back in the tornament if you lose two early matches with the strong teams.

[Gosgosking]

It was unfortunate that India loss in both matches. The game between India and Afghanistan was so tense for India . India didn't really perform well in there games , they should try  very hard on their performance for next game.

It was not a bad luck rather Indian team was not well prepared for this mega event. India, NZ and Pakistan need to win at least one match against each other to stay in the tournament but India lost both with huge margins. It's not justified to analyze Indian team performance based on their performance against Afghanistan, Namibia and scotland.

Indian players have the advantage of playing in the richest franchise T20 league in the world. But they still couldn't manage to qualify for the semi-finals. I have a feeling that the BCCI is wrong when they are banning all the Indian players from participating in foreign T20 leagues. There is no justification to do that, when foreigners are taking part in the IPL. At least those who are not part of the Indian squad should be allowed to play in the foreign leagues. This sort of monopolistic tendencies will do more harm in the long run.

@Sithara007 though I agree that BCCI should allow Indian player’s to play in other countries T20 tournament, but in this case the clear issue was player’s were exhausted, and instead of opting out they decided to turn up for the World Cup.

Also as we discussed in other thread some player’s should have been dropped, but one reason or the other they were picked hence BCCI investigate and drop those player’s who were tired, but yet participated and hurt India’s chance of qualifying for the World Cup.

Majority of players in IPL are from Indian national team or foreign players, very few are from domestic setup. Those who are not in IPL must be allowed to play other leagues to get necessary financial benefit. Moreover, Indian players are isolated from rest of the world T20 environment as they only play on there home itches, that's one reason why Indian batting filed against Pakistan pace attack. lets hope BCCI lift this ban from Indian players.

Huge scandal in Indian cricket.

https://www.opindia.com/2021/11/wife-of-dawoods-aide-accuses-hardik-pandya-rajiv-shukla-of-rape/

One lady named Rehnuma Bhati has accused Hardik Pandya of raping her at the Trident hotel.

According to the complaint, Pandya and his two friends committed all kinds of unnatural sexual activities with her including oral sex and anal sex, and all of them were drunk.

If the BCCI has any sort of morals, then they should immediately suspend the central contract of Hardik Pandya and keep him away from competitive cricket until his name is cleared.

Do not jump the gun, these are allegations and once there is concrete proof and if the accuser can produce the evidence then we can say that it is punishable offence. The article that is posted does not have any clear indication of what really happened but one woman came out and accused cricket players and politician. Looks like someone was forced into prostitution and they visited her and now she had the courage to file a complaint regarding her situation.

Its a big offense and anyone who is involved must be punished. We saw allegations of same type on Babar Azam few months back, where a woman accused him of marrying her secretly. The woman later withdraw her charges. On same ground Munaf Patel and Hardik Pandya must be given space to give there verdict and if found guilty by court then they must be punished. Based on news we must not jump to conclusion.

These are very serious allegations, and the victim has given all the details of the crime such as date and location at which the incident took place. I don't want to jump in to conclusions, but at the same time as a woman I am sickened by people who are jumping to defend Hardik before the details are even known. Why automatically assume that he's innocent? Let the investigation proceed as per the plan, and with all his money power and political connections, I am sure that Hardik will be able to defend himself if he's not guilty.

Cricketers and other celebrities are regularly accused of such crimes most of the time charges are withdrawn by accusers. I am not defending anyone,  what I wanna say is that the victim must go to court and its only the court who can give her justice. These media houses will use her by flashing her news for few days and then get busy in next breaking news.

[Shagnasty]

Who do you think guys will win the match between new zealand and australia, yes i know no one can predict that I just want to know what you are thinking, as both the teams no one expected then in finals and now that 2015 final comes in time mind where australia beaten newzealand easily. But this time i really feel that newzealand has a great chance of winning this years t20 world cup final.

Pandya is a married man with one child, his wife is an Indian-based Serbian dancer and actress Nataša Stanković. This news will have huge impact not only on his cricketing career but his personal life also. He was very much criticized for his inclusion in Indian T20 WC squad. The only question I have in my mind is why this woman spoke up just after WC, why not when she was assaulted.

Seems like Hardik Pandya's bad days are not over yet. Bad T20 WC, Rape allegations and now this, Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya's luxury watches worth Dh2.4 million seized at Mumbai airport. The watches were worth 5 crore and Pandya has no receipt of these watches. Pandya is perhaps undergoing the toughest phase of his life, lets see how he tackle this situation.

No sympathy for Pandya here. Even if there is no truth in the rape allegations (which I doubt), he doesn't have any excuse in smuggling luxury watches. Pandya purchased the watches in the UAE and brought them to India without paying the import duty at the airport. A poor third world country such as India can't afford to have people like Pandya, who refuse to pay the due taxes. I hope he will get punished for this, although most likely he will be let off with a warning thanks to his political connections. And let's not forget that this is the same guy who suggested the Indian team to take the knee at the world cup. Imagine this, a tax evader advising the team on how to react against racism in the United States and at the same time refusing to pay taxes in India.

@Sithara007 I won’t comment on the rape issue until it’s proved, because most likely it’ll never be proved due to lack of evidence as it’s always seen when a case is filed against a famous person.

Furthermore as for the watches are concerned he gave a statement which said that he declared full customs, but the officers wanted to revalue it and he believes the media is misleading the people, but he didn’t say he’ll sue those outlets for spreading lies which does make me wonder who’s correct and who’s lying.
