Cricket match prediction discussions

[impulse709]

1st match of the T20 series between Afghanistan and Pakistan is going to start tomorrow.  Afghanistan cricket team will be in the field as the favorite team.  Afghanistan play very well in T20 and they have a lot of reputation.  I have decided to bet for Afghanistan in tomorrow's match.  Hope Afghanistan is going to present something good to the cricket world in tomorrow's match.  On the other hand, it would be wrong to underestimate the Pakistan team.  Pakistan team also has many good players.  But again many players of Pakistan have changed.  Now when tomorrow's match starts, it will be understood which team can do well.  Hopefully tomorrow's match will be an exciting one

Looking forward to tomorrow match that is going to be exciting one as both teams Pakistan and Afghanistan is doing great in T20 format .
Afghanistan is my personal favourite as their game Is fearless and aggressive and that's is best for t20 format of cricket.
Pakistan team had lots of new faces in this series and they ate going to show themselves in this .

Yes I also think Afghanistan is a very strong team in T20 aspect. But due to some mistakes they perform very badly in certain matches. But tomorrow match between Pakistan and Afghanistan will be a great game.  All fans of Pakistan and Afghanistan are waiting to watch tomorrow's match.  Hopefully I will bet for Afghanistan in tomorrow's match and I will win the bet.

This particular tour was organized after Australia withdrew from their tour of Afghanistan, citing the Taliban takeover. Now it will be more difficult for the ACB to organize matches against the SENA nations. Hopefully tomorrow's match will once again cement the cricketing relations between these two nations, which were strained after the incidents during last year's Asia Cup. Afghanistan is playing international cricket again after a considerable gap. Their last match against a full member was the T20 match against Sri Lanka, back in November 2022.

I hope Afghanistan is going to be able to attract some eyes with the performance that they are going to do against Pakistan. Of course, they have been staying away from cricket against the bigger competition for quite a while now. I think just because they have been playing against weaker opponents, they have been playing some form of cricket and were not absolutely away from it. That is going to be a big thing for them going into the match against Pakistan. I still do not think that Pakistan is going to be the losing team. But I am still expecting a decent performance from Afghanistan.

These two countries have played against each other so often that both of them are aware of the weaknesses and strengths of the other team. The matches will take place at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in the United Arab Emirates, and this venue is also quite familiar for both the teams. Rashid Khan will be captaining the Afghans, while the Pakistan team will be captained by Shadab Khan. Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman are not included in the squad and therefore this series represents a big opportunity for the younger players.

Well well well, I don't think anyone actually expected this. Pakistan is already eight down for only 77. 16 overs have been played. No way Pakistan is going to have enough runs on the board to beat Afghanistan. Maybe we are just witnessing the fact that Pakistan cannot actually perform well without some important players. Pakistan did have some problems when it came to batting. Pakistan will be happy if they somehow get even close to 120. They will have to do very well in bowling.

Today Pakistan totally lost it with their batting and none of their players scored good runs ad a result they have a small target of 92 runs . Credit goes to Afghanistan balling that was superb today they totally nailed it in fielding and balling .
Afghanistan has higher probability to winning this match as they have couple of runs to chase.

This is useless series for Pakistan after having long PSL 8, but they manage to play against Afghanistan and now lost their first every International match against them badly because inexperienced batsmen were not able to perform as expectations and Afghanistan done good magic in bowling then their batsmen also play sensibly specially Mohammad Nabi and manage to win their first ever win against Pakistan in style from Pakistan side Ihsanullah done good job after having very good performance in PSL his start here in this series is also as expectations with today match I have feeling most chances Afghanistan can whitewash Pakistan which could be good for them before Asia Cup which is also going to play in Pakistan after IPL which is going to start next week.

Today a very important ICC board meeting is scheduled. Multiple issues will come up for discussion today. The first topic is regarding allocation to various boards for the 2024-27 cycle. ICC revenues have increased by more than 3 times as a result of the auction of media rights, but this time the BCCI wants a lions share of the revenue. There is a high chance that no concrete decision will be taken on this topic today. Second topic is regarding the future of Afghanistan cricket board. Wisden published an article yesterday, arguing that ECB and CA should pull out of the ICC in case Afghanistan is not suspended.

Tough situation for ACB as they are helpless against the Taliban and can't blame ICC or other boards if they kick them out or degrade their full membership status to associates. Rules are very clear in the book that you must have a Women's domestic setup, no matter what.

Would be better if ICC cut ACB's funding and allocate this particular amount to Afghan women's cricket, then these girls can make their base in another country. Afg Men's team did the same and had a home ground in India. This way ACB could avoid a ban.

After the Taliban seized power in 2021, Afghanistan's cricket scene underwent drastic changes, especially when they enacted various laws to eliminate the women's cricket team altogether. Although the Taliban cares a lot about women's rights, they will never support women's participation in cricket. The Taliban are religiously particular and do not support women's participation in cricket and other competitive sports, particularly in Islam. So the Taliban will never support the demands of other cricket organizations including the ICC if they want to run the state according to a fully Islamic way of life.

Well.. this one looks like the most probable resolution to the issue. Zimbabwe was suspended for sometime and the funds frozen, after ICC found government intervention in day-to-day running of Zimbabwe cricket. Nepal also faced the same fate sometime back. Charges against Afghanistan are far more serious and may result in equal or more severe penalty from the ICC. One plus point for Afghanistan is that both the Indian government, as well as the BCCI have stood like a rock behind the Taliban regime, providing all the support they could. For ICC, it will be difficult to ignore the stance from the BCCI.

Right now, situation is not favorable for the Afghanistan and most chances if big-4 have any tough decision then it's going to be implemented very quickly regarding ban them because most chances Taliban are not going to accept anything regarding women's sports because even they are trying to cut ties in education which is completely nonsense, but currently they are not listening which is not good for their team and its future.

If we have ban on Afghanistan team which is most likely going to happen then surely many players are going to lose their bright future in this game and most likely they will try to have joined Gulf region teams which are already accepting players from subcontinent, so this could be beneficial for them in terms of having good quality players.

First of all, there is no unity within the pig-4 regarding the Taliban issue. BCCI is a strong supporter of the ACB, because the current Indian government is a big backer of Taliban. On the other hand, ECB, CA and CNZ are strongly against Taliban after the latter committed human rights abuses and banned education for women (a stance that is approved by the respective governments in these countries). As per ICC rules, Afghanistan needs to be suspended, because they don't have a women's team. But then, if you leave the decision with the BCCI, then they may get a reprieve.

America has failed in its long efforts in the battle field to get rid of Taliban rule in Afghanistan. Although American troops have survived there for a long time, they have not been able to bring Afghanistan back to control. At that time they suffered huge losses financially as well as losing a lot of troops. As a result, a survey found that the amount of loss in America is very heavy and they are no longer willing to lose. And after knowing this, the Taliban government also strengthened their position. As a result, now the country will be run as they want. If they take any negative decisions in cricket then there is no other option but to say bad luck to the cricketers.

There is great potential in Afghanistan as far as cricket is concerned and its sad to see them getting kicked out just because of Taliban. 
The reality is in government of Taliban it is impossible to set up a women team as they are already cutting off women in all grounds and sects of society like education and job . So thinking of women cricket team is totally a fiction.  But that doesn't mean men cricket team should be punished because of that as they don't have any control over Taliban.

I do not understand why the cricket boards and countries are sanctioning the Taliban. Because those countries have a lot of feminists saying that they can do whatever they want and whatever a man can do. Just get them to remove the Talibans, get them to fight against the Talibans, and make them use their feminist revolution to get the Afghani women to go to school.

I just find it really surprising, and also dumb because I understand that they are trying to talk about women's rights. But the women in Afghanistan are far happier compared to the women in Australia, New Zealand, or other first-world countries.

The bail out was a stupid move by the Biden government, during Trump presidency there was no causalities and there were no attacks against the US soldiers and before pulling out of Afghanistan the Biden regime had a meeting with the Taliban representatives in Saudi and after that meeting they agreed that the US will pull out and they can occupy the country and that is how everything went down throwing away decades of money and personal spent for the war.

If you revolt you will be dead and no one will come to you aide. So it is an impossible task.

It is not true, when a generation of people enjoy freedom for 20 years and then all of a sudden when you are forced to live with all the restrictions i bet no one will be happy. So the idea of everyone is happy that the Taliban took over is a myth.

I believe it's not all about women's are happy or no because no one have exact reports what is happening around there with mostly liberal are doing propaganda for their own and peoples those are favouring Taliban they are giving reports for their own, but recently we have few poor reports as women's are stopped from medical colleges and universities and then now they are banning women's those want to do work in few departments as well just because of this they are not allowing women's in sports even right now we have teams from Iran and Saudi Arab in soccer and few other sports as well with this all if Afghanistan is not going to accept ICC rules then surely things could be also not in their favour, and they have right to do things as they wanted even now as I read India is going in favour of Taliban just because of Pakistan is now having not good relationship with them so may be things could be changed about this all.

Sending humanitarian aid to Afghanistan, going ahead with pending infrastructure work or training existing batches of cadets hardly implies that India standing behind the Taliban, considering they still didn't recognize the Taliban as a government. BCCI does back ACB, let's see what happens.
