2019 Cricket World Cup - Discussion & Analysis

[AB de Royse777]

Let me tell you a truth. I placed a bet for England and the odd is 1.02 :-)
It's not a single bet but a 3 fold LOL
So the final odd is 2.91 :-D

Adding England has just increased the final odd from 2.86 (I guess) LOL

LOL I told you guys about my luck.

Image the odd for a team is 1.02 and they will probably lose. How would you feel?

I am fucked up when I try my luck :-D

Anyone watched yesterday's IRE vs ENG match? One thing is very clear. Unlike the sub-continental pitches, those in ENG/IRE offer a lot of support for the pace bowlers. Bowlers such as Josh Little and Tim Murtagh are not essentially international material. But they were able to trouble top English batsmen such as Eoin Morgan and Joe Root.

Teams such as India are going to struggle during the first 2-3 matches while adjusting with the conditions. I won't be very surprised if there are a few upsets during this phase.

Not expecting any upsets because what you said goes both ways. The current Indian squad are capable of adjusting to foreign conditions pretty quickly and their recent performances in Aus and NZ proves that.

Teams such as West Indies, Bangladesh and Afghanistan will be touring England this week and taking part in triangular ODI tournaments. So obviously they have the advantage when compared to the other teams. I guess two warm-up matches are scheduled for India, but it may not be enough. Playing the IPL in India (where the temperature can be up to 45 degrees) and then coming to England where the night temperature can fall to 10 degrees can be tough.

Yeah, I remember that....

But your luck managed to give you couple of Wins Yesterday in both matches. Eng won and in IPL KKR won as well.

Something to cheer about hehehe.

You can add Pakistan as well in this list.

I would be lying if I say Its not a concern but having said that Indian team performing well in English condition when playing ICC  tournaments so I think they Indian team can manage this.

2013 championship : Winner
2017 championship : Runner-up

This will barely be a resistance toward the domination of team India in world cup. They almost all are qualified and experienced player, I don't think it will be an issue for them. They have performed better recently and I believe they will be able to continue this.

LOL it did not.
Over smartness lost me a lot yesterday.

In one stage it was obvious that England was going to lose. So I cashed out whatever left then put all of the money with some new deposit for Ireland and guess what game started to turn around for England LOL

I did not bet for KKR

So, eventually I lost a lot :-P

I am thinking to take a long break from gambling, making too many wrong decisions and it's costing me a lot.

Agreed. The Indian team players are experienced players who know how to play under different conditions and the point I mentioned about how they dominated Aus and NZ in their backyards clarifies that.

It all comes down to individual player performances at the end.

Excuse me but I thought they lost the home ODI series against Australia. The result was 2 - 3. They won the first two matches then they lost the rest of the three matches if I can recall it currently.

India used to play bad cricket in their abroad but from last few years they improved a lot. They in fact like the English wicket these days.

Yap, just checked and I was not wrong : http://www.espncricinfo.com/scores/team/2/australia?date=201903

Today West Indies is playing a ODI match against Ireland (at Dublin). It will give an idea about how the West Indies players are adjusting to the weather conditions. But the point to remember here is that WI is not having a full strength squad. Half of their world cup squad is playing the IPL in India and won't be in England before the tournament is over.

Are you thinking of missing the world cup too? Lol, I think you should be more careful when you bet. Or recruit a person to do the analysis part deeply with a good success ratio

West Indies has some good players. They will play good in WC but not now probably since you mentioned some of their good players are still in IPL.

Lol. I clearly mentioned that the Indian team decimated Aus and NZ teams in their own backyards(Aus and NZ). They even scripted a historic test series win against Aus. I never talked about them playing at home which I do know that they lost 3-2.

Looks like you misunderstood what I was trying to say here.

LOL I guess I did :-) Apologies.

By the way, anyone is following West Indies vs Ireland? I am following the score while I am watching the IPL.


West Indies are doing very well which they should. After 15 over their run is 71 without losing any wicket.

[Vishnu.Reang]

After their good showing against England, Ireland are back to their old ways. West Indies is performing really well, considering the fact that more than half of their squad is away in India, playing the IPL. The Irish bowling looks quite clueless, with both the pacers as well as the spinners going for the runs. John Campbell and Shai Hope batting really well, which can present a dilemma to the selectors once Gayle is back.

Don't know how to react in this situation. just be careful for next time and try to put your eggs carefully-with proper analysis, not just based on who giving odds rates high.

I thought you already took your break before and started after break?

It was a short break :-P
It's hard to control emotion when I see good odds.
Anyway that match in between Ireland vs England was once one sided for Ireland.

Anyway that match in between Ireland vs England was once one sided for Ireland.

I wouldn't call losing 6 wickets one sided here. Ireland bowled well and it seemed like England underestimated them. A couple more wickets and Ireland would be jumping with joy. England needs to improve their game here even if major players are missing.

Also, Tom Curran has done a wonderful job once again with both bat and ball.

I was watching ball by ball score of that match because of my bet and I am telling you that it was stressful to watch. They needed tons of runs but they did not have wickets in hand until that partnership worked out.

In one stage it was obvious that England was going to lose if Ireland could get the wicket early or even in the middle of the partnership. Anyway, it's gone and that lose of my bet was part of the process.
