I missed the match between India and Sri Lanka and i was waiting to place a bet after the start of the match but i missed them completely and India won the match easily.

You should have placed a bet well before the match, Sri Lanka is having a weak team and even the young players playing for India could change the match as these players are waiting for a chance to play in the playing eleven and when they get the opportunity they make sure they will make an impact as the competition is really high and that is what these young players are doing.

I would like to dedicate this win to the Multan captain "Rizwan". There was a time in the match when lahore team was dominant and multan spinners were unable to have an influence on the match. Also Fakhar smashed three powerful sixes in 3 balls make the match almost an easy win for Lahore but right after that over, Fakhar took strategic time out, and after that Rizwan came with a new game plan and totally took over the match.
Also earlier, Rizwan stayed on the crease for full Multan innings and make sure they made a decent score after a slow start.

Meanwhile Islamabad United are looking comfortable against Peshawar zalmis as they need 93 runs on 60.balls with 8 wickets left. It can be anyone game though as 93 are quite runs and one or two more wickets can certainly make Zalmis favorite for this game. For Islamabad United its important that Hales must stay on the crease.

Islamabad won the match and the first eliminator was avoided. Though it was not an easy win as the Peshawar team was very close to taking back control of the match.

Today, we will have a big eliminator 2 between Lahore and Islamabad. Playing in the home ground of Lahore, it will be a big match and Lahore should win this one to be eligible for the big final on Sunday with Multan.

finally Mumbai Indians might be happy today to see their purchase of 15 Crores playing extremely well, Iyer too is playing really well after coming back from the injury, I think he will be the next big thing in Indian Cricket, On the other hand, the player who is impressing me the most is Venkatesh Iyer with his 2 wickets.

Ishan and both Iyers have been performing consistently in recent times which is great news for their respective IPL teams, but you forgot about Bhuvi who retained his form after a long period of time.

When they get the opportunity they make sure they will make an impact as the competition is really high and that is what these young players are doing. 

Agreed. So many young Indian players are performing well these days which is clearly putting a lot of pressure on the senior players in the national team(Including Kohli).

I do not remember Hardik Pandya playing for India in a very long time, he is always struggling with his fitness and there is no way he will be playing an entire series as an all rounder until he proves his fitness in domestic tournament. Is he playing for domestic teams or is he only playing in the IPL.

I missed the match between India and Sri Lanka and i was waiting to place a bet after the start of the match but i missed them completely and India won the match easily.

Hardik Pandya performance is not upto the standard that he is included in national team. But still he is lucky enough to be picked up by Ahmedabad franchise as a captain for 15 crore. Do you think he will consider working hard to improve his performance after getting this huge status along with money in IPL?

India vs Sri lanka

After a long time we saw a perfect T20 match from the Indian players. Basically the top order batsmen have played well so India's performance has been good. Batting first, India set a target of 200 runs. Opener Rohit Sharma scored 44 and Kishan 89 runs. Iyer also made 57 off just 28 balls. The batsmen played well and the bowlers performed well. Sri Lanka collected only 136 runs in 20 overs. India won the match by 62 runs.

This is why Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer are the highest paid player in IPL. They timing these two batters have is impeccable. I guess Srilanka chose to ball first because they wanted to utilise the dew factor but that did not go well with them. Two more matches left in this series. I guess this series will be also whitewashed by the Indian side.

Dew factor is not an important factor as in U.A.E where entire game is decided on toss. If Dew have any role Sri lanka will either win or end up finishing near the target but both of these things never happened. Sri Lanka are coming after 4-1 loss to Australia so definatly they are not in good moral and at the same time they will try hard not to be outclassed like they are in last series.

Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer have proved their worth. Two great players. I think Ishan Kishan will become like Virat KOhli. He is very talented. If he works hard, he will become the most important player in the Indian team. Kishan is probably 23 years old now. He must work hard. He will be able to serve the Indian team for at least more than 10 years.

Bangladesh     vs    Afghanitan

What a brilliant hundred from Liton Das.He has scored 102 runs off 108 balls. Great batting. Bangladesh's collection is now 241/2. Bangladesh will not be defeated in this match. On such a pitch in Chittagong, it became difficult to win against 280 runs. Bangladesh's bowlers are in good form now. They also bowled well in the first match. If Liton and Mushfiqur are not out, Bangladesh will collect more than 300 today. Bangladesh will still play 8 more overs.

Three more overs left for Bangladesh innings to end. Bangladesh still have wickets in hand they will easily reach 300 today. I wish Afghanistan can chase those run but it is not that easy for them now. Another one sided game in this series.

Ishan kishan has played only 9 T20Is from India till date. His performance in IPL has made him most expensive player of 2022. His last 89 runs knock against SL is worth to watch and if he continues playing like that he can surely be next Kohli.  Lyer has good average and strike rate both in ODI and T20s. He and Ishan can prove to be vital Indian assets in T20 and ODIs in coming days.

I think Sri Lanka wanted to exploit whatever they thought they might get from the pitch at the start of the match but that didn't go as planned. and to be honest I don't think that Sri Lanka has that type of bowling to defend whatever they post on the scoreboard if they bat first. so that might be a reason why they chose to bowl first.

and I also think ok that they did not want India to chase because India is a really good team at chasing scores. but I think we can safely say that whatever they planned did not work. And Ishan Kishan along with Shreyas Iyer really played well in that match and proved their worth. India is looking really good against Sri Lanka and I also think that this could be a whitewash.

PSL 2022, Lahore Qalandars vs Islamabad United eliminator 2 is in progress. LQ has given target of 168 and in reply IU are very much down, 51/4 in seven overs. IU need 105 more runs on 75 balls with just 6 wickets in hands. Lahore Qalandars have not won any PSL till date and if they won today it will be there second PSL final.

On the other hand, the player who is impressing me the most is Venkatesh Iyer with his 2 wickets, I don't think Hardik Pandya is anymore an obvious choice for number 7 in the side at least until he brings back full force in his bowling.

I do not remember Hardik Pandya playing for India in a very long time, he is always struggling with his fitness and there is no way he will be playing an entire series as an all rounder until he proves his fitness in domestic tournament. Is he playing for domestic teams or is he only playing in the IPL.

I missed the match between India and Sri Lanka and i was waiting to place a bet after the start of the match but i missed them completely and India won the match easily.

I think this IPL would be a litmus test in his career, Pandya was already released by Mumbai Indians, even Gujarat Titans have taken a pretty big bet making Pandya their captain. But if he can play really well for this team then there is a good chance that he might be given a couple of chances owing to his experience.

If Liton and Mushfiqur are not out, Bangladesh will collect more than 300 today. Bangladesh will still play 8 more overs.

Winning against Afghanistan is simple, you make a 270+ Target against them while batting first, there is no chance their batting would be able to chase down this target, their strength is their bowling so if you bat second and are chasing even an average target, they can take wickets on crucial moments making your win a bit skeptical.

Yeah, Bangladesh won by 88 runs, they got big scored specially for Liton Das (136 runs from 126 balls) then Musfiqur Rahim. You know BD gave such as big target (about 306 runs) for Afghanistan. Even though i think 250-260 score is enough in the Chattogram pitch and it’s difficult to chased in this pitch there chasing such a big score, it was really pretty impossible for Afghanistan to win this match i think.

Ireland and UAE has qualified for the T20 World Cup later this year and in the final of the qualifier tournament Ireland was defeated by the UAE. I have expressed my anguish about the UAE team being 100% non-citizen earlier and don't want to repeat the same everytime. But the direction international cricket is moving is not very positive. Very soon all of the associate nations will be hiring Indian and Pakistani first class players and then create "national" teams out of them. And this will completely destroy any team with native players.

Lahore Qalanders have won a thriller. They were down and out in this match and it was looking like an easy win for islamabad united but an amazing display of death bowling from them and they won the match. It came down to only 8 needed of 8 balls but asif ali got out at that moment. And that changed the game. Islamabad should be very disappointed with this loss.

It is the Islamabad United team that needs to be blamed for this loss. They have lost the match which they should have won easily. When the target is run a ball, then why does each and every batsman need to hit a six. Asif Ali tried to finish the match early by hitting a six and got out.
Also why Wasim Jr. did not take the run when they need 8 runs in 8 balls and wasted two balls, making themselves under pressure.

But if he can play really well for this team then there is a good chance that he might be given a couple of chances owing to his experience.

If Hardik Pandya can play the entire tournament without any injury then it would be a good start for his recovery and possibly a return to play for India, he can hit the ball a long way and that is his strength. I have not seen him having an incredible spell of bowling but with the bat i have seen him clearing the boundary with ease and if he can do that consistently without any injury then we could see him play again, if not this is the of his short career.

I don't think that we'll ever see Hardik in his old form ever again (the same goes to Virat Kohli as well). It has been more than three years, since his performance deteriorated. And during this time, he got a lot of flak for getting a spot in the national team without being able to perform. Ideally he should have played a few domestic matches and proved his mettle. But I hardly see these guys taking part in Indian domestic competitions. When was the last time that Kohli played for his domestic side (Delhi)?

Why would Pandaya go and play domestic if he is selected as captain of Gujrat team and for salary of 15 crore. Same for kohli, he is in all three format of the game and there is no need for him to go and play domestic. I read that Pujara and Rehana are asked by BCCI management to play domestic to prove there fitness and performance.
