T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Pffrt]

Anyway, are you going to watch Islamabad United vs Multan Sultans today in PSL? Who do you think gonna win? My mind is blank.

I think I am going to miss the match because I am having bad internet connection here for a while. Anyway, I think Multan will win the match. They have some good batsman who are performing well. And their bowling line up is also good.

Today is the T20 between India vs OZ and this match is very crucial for the India as they are down by 1-0 in the series. It is 2 match T20 series and if India lose this match than they will lose the series and if they win they will level the series. This match again can go till the last ball like last match.

There are more chances of series draw. india can win this match and capable in making comeback strongly. they did exact same comeback in Australia too and many occasion.

India v/s Australia
I am not much of a Cricket enthusiast as an NBA expert, but I'd like to post my prediction based on some analysis for today's game!
As last game saw a really poor batting performance by Indians, so they most probably will be bringing in Shikhar Dhawan this match which shall strengthen the top order which got shattered in 1st T20.
Looking at the bowling side, Jasprit Bumrah showcased a great performance, but Umesh Yadav or Mayank Markande might get replaced this match. Today's match will be played on a batting pitch so it should be a high scoring match. A target of less than 150 shouldn't be having any strong chance of being denied. Australia's batting performance wasn't commendable either with only Maxwell and Arcy scoring more than 15.
Australia's bowling line-up is looking strong with Nathan Nile in good form but batting line-up performed poorly last game and I don't see much firepower in them.

If India can score anywhere around 160 or above, they should have a strong chance of winning, and with this being RCB'S home ground, I've seen some spectacular performances by Indian players and high scoring totals over here.

India will be coming on the field with a winning attitude to tie and save the series.

Picks :
Winner : India (1.49 odds)
1st Innings India total : More than 150
Edit :- If you want higher odds, India Total Fours : More than 13.5 (1.76 odds) should be a good if India bats first

These predictions are as per my understanding. It's up to your understanding and belief to tail my bets or not. I will love to know your views both in support or against these predictions

I will also go with India. India is better team besides they are playing in their home ground which is a big advantage for them. They are always the best in their ground.

People may talk about the 1st T20 but from my observation that was a bad day for India. I am not sure about the winning margin but I am expecting this will be a close game and India will win.

[PryptoMontreal]

I think India will go with same playing 11 as last game. its weird to drop any player based on one match at least they should give them one more chance. its RCB homeground or CSK? i think its RCB's home ground.

Yeah you are right, I've updated it

Once again people got burnt betting on India to win the game. Yes it did end up being close but thanks to Maxwell scoring a century helped Australia get the win. I thought India posted enough runs to get the win but once again it wasn't their day and this time I don't believe it was bad luck as Maxwell was the game changer in this match.

No, India could have some more runs to the score if Shikhar Dhawan wouldn't end up playing a slow innings. In a t20 match, scoring 14 from 24 balls don't sound good. If he scored 30 from 24, result may be changed.

I think the reason of his slow playing could be that Rahul had decided to go after the bowling and on other hand Shikhar to stand for longer time. But yes should have taken single and rotate the strike frequently . But overall it was OZ and Maxwell who played well to help them win.

In t20, there's no mean of playing slowly except an early of some wickets. Shikhar should be more faster. Just thinking what if it was Dhoni. How criticism would increase and people start to talk about his capacity.

It is true that Shikhar Dhawan played a slow innings and I disagree with the umpire's decision that got him out, but India had more than enough runs to win this match. Their balling unit botched the game in my opinion.

Bumrah was the only baller who balled well out there while Kaul, Umesh, Chahal etc showed poor form out there. Awesome batting by Maxwell though.

[AB de Royse777]

Its hard for ballers when boundries lines are so short. Sidhart kaul is good bowler in death and Chahal is good too but it was Maxwell's day so we should give some credit to him. i guess india should fix there playing 11 now and stop messing around with team.

I watched the full match possibly every ball. I can not believe that India lost this T20 too.  Everything gone right for Maxwell, everything. He was scoring like something possessed him.  

This things happen. Only one wins. You can see the WI vs England match (ODI). WI was nearly winning the ODI (chasing 418 runs) but Rashid's 4 wickets from 5 balls took the match away from WI.

In a match win or lose does not matter, what matter is the entertainment. The T20 between India and Australia was entertaining in my opinion.

[AB de Royse777]

Yeah match was good. somehow Indian fielding looking very slopy these days. Knucklehead Rishabh pant dropped one catch lol 

It's a part of the game.
I think India needs to figure out the reasons to lose these two matches and find a way out. They are better team than Australia especially in their ground.

What do you mean no, that is what can happen in cricket my friend. Just because Shikhar Dhawan scored only 14 off 24 balls doesn't mean that is why India scored less, how about giving some credit to the Australian bowlers who restricted him to just that? People always think of the batting in T20 matches and don't give enough credit to the bowlers. Australia bowled well in this match even though India did get to a reasonable competitive total.

[Pffrt]

In recent year india used to be good fielding side if not the top but right now not looking good as a fielding unit.
Stop Experimenting for starter? trying new playing 11 in every match so that they can find right combination for world cup and losing series lol.

India had a better fielding side back in days. But they are now not a good one, imo. Changing 1 or 2 players could have a different result and experiment for the upcoming world cup.

[Little Mouse]

Jadeja is not playing, he used to save 10-15 runs and blinder run outs chances in every match with his fielding.

Nice to see Jadeja back in ODI. In feilding, I had seen India best team at 2011 world cup possibly. Suresh Raina is one of the good fielder who is missing for bad performance. I am a fan of his fielding.

No international T20 today so this topic will be silent today hehe

By the way India fans, India Vs Australia first ODI discussion is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1135451.msg49985653#msg49985653

And my bet is for India.

[JSRAW]

No international T20 today so this topic will be silent today hehe

IPL coming soon. keep bumping this thread in all cricketing threads ( or sweep in other topic too but smartly lol ). I keep sharing your and Raja's thread here and there whenever i get

the chance so that we can have a good amount of activity in both sections.

IPL coming soon.

Indeed it is. I am excited for the upcoming IPL season this year just like every other year.

After seeing Dhoni and Jadhavs performance yesterday, I am pretty convinced that CSK will once again be a strong contender this year.

Hey it’s only a matter of few days before IPL matches begin, I call it a gamblers paradise as gamblers all over the world can make huge amount of money with little efforts. I feel you’re comparing two different tournaments yesterday’s match was an ODI, while IPL is a T20 and MS Dhoni is not the finisher he once used to be. I feel it’s too early to say who’ll win as we will have to see recent injuries, which players will be there for full tournament and which will withdraw mid tournament.
