T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[pakhitheboss]

That was really a great match. Most of the stars played and good to see that they performed nicely.
Today, Srilanka will face Australia. It's going to be another great match since we will see Muralidharan, Chaminda Vaas, Marvan Atapattu to play once again.

Australian team is rocking 117/1 in 12 overs at this rate they can easily score more than 250. India needs some wickets now otherwise this match will go out of their hand. Australia are favourites but you cannot underestimate team India.

What an amazing start to the final's where OZ had an 115 runs opening partnership and managed to score 184/4 in 20 overs. Mooney was not out at 78 and Healy made 75 runs. This would be a big score for India to chase and in finals the pressure always is on batting second. Hopefully we see the match goes till last ball to decide the world champions of T20.

184 is a good target aby the Australian team. I thought they might cross 200 but, Indian bowlers were able to restrict them. Now India has to build a partnership and also keep a check on the asking run rate.

India have begun their innings and already has lost 3 wickets for 26 runs in 5 overs . So with this start the chase is now not at easy and OZ have almost closer to life the World Cup . Unless some magical innings is being played then only India could win from now on .

I think the Women's T20 final has been very entertaining with a great batting performance by Australia, that was one of the best batting performances I've seen in a while in a final. It reminds me of the 2003 world cup final between Australia and India and it is looking like Australia will win unless the Indian middle order can make a big partnership.

Yes, great batting by the Australian team. They were considered the favourite s to win this tournament. Indian team also played well but there batting collapsed. It was not easy to chase 184, Australia dominated the game from the beginning. Still a good match to watch.

The overall tournament was interesting one but the final was not very entertaining and it was one sided game. I did expected that Indians girls should have shown some sort of fight, but it was not to be. Anyways Indians should be happy as they have made it to the final alteast, which is also an honor for them.

Definitely the way India has reached final beating some of the world best team the final was just not on the mark. It was a complete one-sided match which proved why the OZ are the 5 times World Champion and continue to remain the same. India just could not even bat complete 20 overs nor they could even make 100 runs in final. India would upset because in league match they had beaten OZ and would have expected the match atleast to be closed.

Well played Australia!!

India is new choker in the international cricket. Feel bad for women's team, it's second time they lost the world cup final. First against the England and now against the Australia.

Guess so , today they just were never in hold . The toss loss was the first strike , the Australian openers just didn't give any time for the bowlers . Feeling bad because this was their chance to get it done but still proud of them as they played brilliantly throughout the tournament ( Expect the most important match though) .

The Indian women's team performed well beyond everyone's expectations. India may be among one of the super-powers in the men's cricket. But women's cricket in India lack even a single professional league inside the country. In Australia they have the WBBL, which is regarded as the top competition among the women. In England also, they have a similar league. I don't know why the BCCI is not starting a WIPL, despite having tons of cash in their accounts.

The Australian openers gave them a really good start and they played like the champions and Alyssa Healy was in exceptional touch in the final and she is easily clearing the boundaries and after seeing the performance i found that she is the wife of Mitchell Starc and Ian Healy is her uncle and that class was evident in her performance. India played really well till the finals but Australia dominated the finals with the ball and the bat.

Good to see the support for the women team, everyone rallying behind them for right reasons. Men's team feeling jealy-jealy

Yeah, big reason. Time has come, BCCI should take necessary steps in this regard, if not then start lobbying for Women cricketer in foreign league. so far only 3-4 players featured in WBBL  and KSL.

1st  T20 between Zim and Bangladesh has begun. Zimbabwe has decided to field first and Bangladesh ahs started very well and are 97/1 in 11.4 overs.  Liton continues has past form and batting at 51 in just 33 balls. Bangladesh is set to make 200+ if Liton continues to bat for longer time and with remaining wickets in hand they can easily target the remaining overs from now on.

I am bored  and watching this match. It seems Bangladesh is in the driving seat. Poor Zimbabwe bowlers were beaten by Bangladeshi top orders and now the Bangladeshi bowlers are bowling good too.

Liton - 59, Saumya – 62, Tamim – 41 helped the team to reach 200/3 in 20 overs . In response Zim started poorly and had lost already 7 wickets for a score of 107 in 14 overs. They still require 88 runs in 32 balls. Zimbabwe team need to come up with a plan and try to score as much close as possible against Bangladesh because once they start competing with OZ, SA, England they would stand nowhere  to this best teams.

[AB de Royse777]

What I learned is that this Zimbabwe teams bowling attak is very poor. So Bangladeshi batsmen are taking advantages of it. Zimbabwe are 9 down now and in any moment they will lose it too lol.

Of course against a good bowling attack we will see a different Bangladesh :-p

One of the reasons why I wanted them to win was to show that in India its not everything about Men's cricket and Women's cricket deserves same kind of attention too . Although they lost , they got nation-wide applause for getting into the finals and nobody is too angry on them for losing in the finals ( If it was Indian Men's team , everyone would have lost their mind ).

Definitely it’s a very big achievement for Indian to enter the finals and the beat would have being to won it . But nevertheless it shows that India is one of the top teams and still has a lot of scope to grow and with right attitude and support they can reach new levels . Today Gavaskar has said to BCCI that they should start woman IPL type matches which will give them a good exposure .

I am bored

I took a break from "watching cricket" after the NZ Tour, I was processing the humiliation lol.

After that i watched only Women WC final and some part of Road Safety World Series just to enjoy Sachin,Sehwag, Lara, Brett Lee, Muralitharan appearance.

[Vishnu.Reang]

WBBL/KSL have limited slots available for overseas players, which means that the younger and emerging players will be left without a chance to play in these leagues. BCCI is a very rich body and there is no dearth of sponsors in India for cricket. Even most of the state boards have their own franchise T20 leagues, such as the Karnataka Premier League, Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) and T20 Mumbai League.

Well there were humiliation in women WC final too. I checked the score yesterday lol

After that i watched only Women WC final and some part of Road Safety World Series just to enjoy Sachin,Sehwag, Lara, Brett Lee, Muralitharan appearance.

I had no idea of such matches were coming and already gone ?

I feel I am not much into cricket these days. Too busy changed my lifestyle I guess :-(
