Cricket match prediction discussions

Yeah. This test series went under the radar thanks to the India-Australia and Pakistan-South Africa series, but it turned out to be just as entertaining as them. Zimbabwe pushed the Afghans in this series.

Rashid was phenomenal as usual while many other players from both teams performed well too. Great time to be a test format fan.

I think test cricket is less loving because most of the fans like  short game like T20 . ODI game is a game of 100 overs and both teams have to play 50 overs and Audience could not stay on the front of screen . T20 is shot game and audience could all overs of match but test matches are less loving because test is  a game of 5 days and both teams play for 2 times but after 5 days we get no result in many matches and players have to make patience in these matches.India Australia matches were very interesting and after these matches millions of people start to see test cricket and that is positive step for test cricket because we want interesting matches and when big teams play good match , cricket will be famous.

One of the reasons for the low popularity of World cricket is the long duration of cricket where people cannot enjoy the entire game. Most of those who enjoy it have to drop their work during that time to do it. Since Test cricket is the most time-consuming of the three formats of cricket, the popularity of this cricket has further decreased and in the future, many may not be able to have the patience to watch this format of cricket. T20 cricket is much more popular than ODI cricket and Test cricket. If a viewer wants to enjoy this cricket, they can do so by dropping one of their jobs. For this reason T20 cricket is gaining popularity and the interest of viewers in other crickets is decreasing.

Yes, I am with your concern. I love short games like T20 and ODI. If cricket world started a new feature in 10 overs or 6 overs with 6 players then it will catch more attention from cricket fans. I don't understand about long-term cricket named Test formate. It's a waste of time. The players will get their reward but the audience will lose their daily activity and lose their daily earnings. In this way audience loses their real money to go to the field while it is played and also loses their daily money. It's a loss of a nation.

I like your suggestion BTW. Already there is a separate format called T10 cricket. But apart from the duration, almost everything else is the same as T20. There are 11 players in each team, which means that each batsmen get less than an over on average. The suggestion to reduce the number of players to 6 is a direction in the right step. This means that the batsmen need to conserve their wickets to a certain degree, and therefore the bowlers can have some impact on the match outcome.

Martin Guptill one of the best for New Zealand in white-ball announces his retirement from international cricket 38 years old he played last game for his country in October 2022 have impressive career with play 198 ODI having 18 centuries and 7346 behind Ross Taylor 8607 and Stephen Fleming 8007 highest every scorer for Black Caps in ODI's also having 18 centuries.



In T20I, he is still highest every scorer for New Zealand with 3531 in 122 games Martin Guptill also represent his country in 47 test matches but have no enough success he could be available for T20i leagues around the world which is good decision from him.

Yes people like test cricket very less now and Test match takes the more time for which people now feel bored to watch Test format i.e. people don't want to watch Test match. Those who have enough time and those have no work can enjoy Test matches, but most people do not want to enjoy Test matches. Although people don't like watching Test matches these days, perhaps the first match played in the history of cricket was a Test match.

Nowadays, since the introduction of T20 format in cricket, this T20 format has become more popular among people and people are now more interested in watching matches in this format. Also we currently see T10, 100 leagues which are much shorter duration.

Yes ,that is perspective of every citizen. We don't want to watch all overs of match because Test is  5 days match and as you explained about the test matches and we watched the test matches of Aus vs India series and Pak vs SA series. These test were very interesting and we watched all matches on the screen because physically we could not afford that loss . Pak team lose the series against SA by 2-0 but that was series of excitement but before we watched the series against Australia and India and Indian team lost the series against Australia in the Australia as we all watched for many times Indian team is  king in the house and they could not play well out of the house.

Both these teams perform well at home. But recently, New Zealand has shown that they can perform in difficult conditions as well (for example they whitewashed India 3-0 in India). Sri Lanka also had a few wins in SENA nations, but they still very heavily rely on spin-friendly conditions at home. Also, the main issue for Sri Lanka is that they don't have a well defined first class structure in comparison to the high quality competition (Plunket Shield) in New Zealand. Their club-based system is not sustainable in the long term.

When it comes to infrastructure, there is no comparison between the two teams. Sri Lanka is an under developed country and they have limited resources but still they have done well in the past and also won the ODI world cup in 1996.

New Zealand is considered as a developed nation and with all the resources they possess, they haven't been able to perform all that well. You can compare them with their neighbors Australia and you will find the NZ cricket is way behind the Australian cricket. NZ are considered Chokers as they usually lose a semi final or the knockout matches and still they haven't been able to get that tag removed from them.

New Zealand International cricket team is hard working team but they could not win any World Cup but qualified for many times in the final. We saw 2019 final in which England was the winner of this World Cup. Match was in the side of New Zealand cricket team but bad luck happened with the players of New Zealand and ball touched with the hand of Ben stokes and after ball hit to the boundary and England team got 4 extra runs and that was the turning point in this match and after game was level. Then super over was also level and England won the match due to more boundaries in the match. Sri Lankan is also good team and that team could win the tournament but they need more hard work and after they will win the ICC tournament.

Sri Lanka won the world cup almost three decades ago. Back then the circumstances were different. Quality of domestic cricket was quite poor in countries such as India and Pakistan. But now, Sri Lanka has remained where they were in 1996, while other teams have leaped ahead. IMO, unwanted government interference on SLCB played its part. They were only interested in the money and never cared about either improving the quality of domestic cricket or spreading cricket outside Colombo.

Hobart Hurricanes won by 6 wickets against Sydney Thunder in the match and thus HBH has regained their position and currently standing at the top in the qualifying table with having 11 points and SYT comes to third with having 9 points. Hobart Hurricanes Showed brilliant performance today. They won the toss and opt to Bowl first.. SYT Scored 164-6 runs where David Warner(*88) alone showed a legendary performance, just missed the century due to lack of more overs. Due to player like him, SYT able to set a decent Target for their opponent cause without David Warner, rest of players didn't afford to met excepted requirement. Apart from that, HBH beginning wasn't good enough but gradually they improved their batting performance. Tim David Scored a beautiful half century, 68 runs came by his bat from 38 balls only and  remain not out. As well as his partner Chris Jordan(18) did good finishing alone with Tim David and achieved the victory finally

Hobart Hurricanes totally dominated in this match and they are now leading the points table by 2 points. I think it will be difficult for the Sydney Thunder to regain the top positions when we already have seven matches for each team being played.

In this match, Sydney Thunder didn't bat well as a team. It was only David Warner who made 88 runs that helped the team reach 164 runs. But these runs were always going to be less because Hobart Hurricanes have a good batting lineup.

Talking about the Hurricanes chase, they struggled in the start when they lost three wickets for 59 runs. But then it was Tim David's show who made 68 runs in 38 balls and remained not out. He won the game for his team.

Congratulations to Hobart Huricane team win game and also for their upcoming matches. Hobart Huricane won game by 6 wickets and 19 balls. Thunder needed to make changes to their strategy win next upcoming games. They should have utilized their player skill in a better way. They needed to improve their fielding and bowling . But I would also say that the thunder team has a lot of talent and they can perform better in upcoming matches win final match. Thunder set a record total runs for 164 and lost the match. Hurricane chased down a total runs for 165 and wining the match. The 29th match between Hobart Huricane and Thunder was played Bellerive Oval, Hobart stadium. Hurricane won the toss and elected to bowling first. The best batting performance in the hurricane team was showed by Tim David  scored 68 runs and balls 38 and hitting 4 fours and 6 sixs.

Sydney Thunder team has already played 8 matches and won only 4 due to which their chances have decreased a bit their total points are 9. Hobart Hurricanes have played 7 matches collected 11 Sydney Sixers have won 4 out of 7 and their total collection is 9. There is a lot of tension between these three teams. I believe that the chances of Sydney Thunder going to the top position are low and difficult. If everyone in the team could have performed equally then the team would have done well but some of them could have done very well and the rest could not have performed. In this situation, we cannot expect anything good from the team. If not only David Warner was relied upon and if the other batsmen could have batted well then the team would have been able to score well in today's match. But they completely failed to do that.

Well, when we say it is a European T20 Premier League and England is not included in it, it does not make sense to me? It would have been good if all the European teams participated in it. Anyway, it would be good for the Scotland and Netherlands cricket boards to have such a league. This is a new league and its first edition will be played in July this year. I feel aren't we having too many leagues globally

After this match, Sydney Sixers and Hobart Hurricanes points are level and both have now 11 points each and only the NRR separating the two teams. Both teams have won 5 matches each and it is really hard to choose between the two. Sydney Sixers have won there last match against Perth Scorchers. I am quite confident that both these teams will play the Qualifier match and they may meet again in the final too. It will be a good competition between David Warner and Tim David

It all comes down to priorities at the end of the day. ECB clearly wants their team to focus on more important tournaments instead of this league which makes complete sense if you think about it.

Also, I do agree with your opinion about too many leagues these days. I tend to focus only on the most important leagues between big leagues just like many other viewers.
