T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[HelliumZ]

Agreeing with your opinion that currently Bangladesh don't have any good openners or middle order batsmen and the thing I noticed in Bangladesh team their young player who new in squad failing in every time. I was thought this pitch will be bowling friendly but it's not Australia was playing amazingly anyway the result of this match was expected that Australia will win this.

Bangladesh has a rapidly ageing squad. Look at the members who played yesterday against Australia. Shakib Al Hasan is 37 year old. Mahmudullah has gone past 38. And these are among the key players in their XI. Once these players retire, Bangladesh will really struggle to replace them. And the younger players are not being consistent. The babies in the squad are 23-year old Tanzid Hasan and 21-year old Tanzim Hasan Sakib. Both are being inconsistent.

With the retirement of Shakib Al Hasan and Mahmudullah Riyad, they will certainly have new players in their squad but according to them, they cannot find a responsible batsman. Liton Das, Soumya Sarkar, Nazmul Hasan Shanto, their performance is not going well at all. So the Bangladesh team cannot be dependent on them and have confidence. I thought maybe Liton Das would be a good performer but after seeing his performance in several matches it is not possible to trust him at all. Rather, if there is no good opener, the Bangladesh team will never be able to do well with a good team.

Australia won by 28 runs (DLS Method) against Bangladesh which is kind of common thing as expected cause Australia is one of the strongest team even where Bangladesh performance getting down day by day. Australia won the toss and opt to fielding. Bangladesh went to bat and again same performance get repeated. Towhid Hridoy(40) only made good runs as he is on his forum. Rest of players did same as they did in previous Matches. Just shanto(41) did well and Mahmudullah(2) failed to collected runs. That's all. Pat Cummins took 3 wickets and Australia batting was satisfactory. David Warner(53) made his half century, travis head (31) did good runs. Match was stopped for a while for rain but due to fastest Strike Rate, Australia won the match easily

England vs South Africa underway. The South Africans are playing like sloths at the moment and aren't taking full advantage of the powerplay which isn't good for them considering how good England are batting these days.

Also, I have no idea why Topley and Ali were given the new ball since I would have chosen Archer and Wood instead. Weird decisions!

[noormcs5]

Let's be real. Both India vs Afghanistan and Australia vs Bangladesh results were very predictable. Almost everyone expected India and Australia to thrash Afghanistan and Bangladesh respectively which is exactly what happened.

These two heavyweights aren't inconsistent like Pakistan and will probably fight each other in the finale. Also, England vs South Africa coming up soon.

Even though Afghanistan lost the match but I will not underestimate them in any way. From the last one year since 2023, their team it’s on peak and still I am saying there are chances for them to go into the playoffs.

At this time, the team of Afghanistan has a mission which is to give a disappointment to big teams, even in the match with India after taking the wicket of Suray Kumar Yadav because after him, just Hardik Pandya was left who may come under pressure while if he will out then the situation will be under the Afghanistan's control and Shivam Dube was new so he came under pressure for sure which means the half game can be come under Afghanistan team, however, things did not turn as planned by the Afghanistan team.

If we look at both playing XI then it's a competition of 2 batting powerhouses and you'll find destructive batters in both teams.

When you put such teams on flat decks then it rarely matters who is bowling and only choking in the batting department and the bowler limiting the damage will decide an outcome.

Moeen Ali bowled pretty tight so it's success though but SA lost back to back wickets after solid start now two new batters has to take some time to settle in that's going to be the decisive move cause there's no room to settle in, it has to go from the ball one.

Talking about choking, can SA make any difference in this ICC event and remove their tag of chokers that's hanging with them for more than 3 decades.

Australia is very good at playing cricket. So today they beat Bangladesh, I agree with you that the performance of Bangladesh is going down day by day. India has a match against Bangladesh tomorrow and probably Bangladesh will lose there because India is also a very good team and they play very well all the time.

Currently playing live is England vs South Africa. Despite South Africa being a very good team, they did not score many runs in today's match against England  So it looks like England are bowling quite well today. South Africa scored 142 runs in 18 overs but they held the wicket. I hope England can bat well. It will be a tight game between them today

[libert19]

SA has only 4 wickets gone and guess what the only batter to come after is Marco Jansen, imagine early batting catastrophe, how are they gonna manage? IMO batting should go until 7th wicket fall.

South Africa are batting well in today's match, aiming to collect a good score. Although two of the stronger teams in this match, England is in bowling form at the moment but will try to keep South Africa under pressure.
Moeen Ali bowled well today and took one wicket, but Topley didn't bowl so well today, he didn't take any wickets. But in today's match, Adil Rashid's bowling performance was outstanding, he took one wicket and conceded only 20 runs in 4 overs.
Archar bowled well but gave too many runs, his bowling performance took 2 wickets, but the number of runs was too much he gave South Africa too many runs, anyway came at the last minute and took the wicket as now South Africa will be under a lot of pressure.

USA had good start with Taylor on crease but once he gone, it's downhill from there, right now 71-4 (10 ov), I have some hope on Gous but other than that it seems that USA has already lost this game.  

United state of America did a great performance today even they are going to lose this message because in the last over they need 26 run they have enough wicket but I don't think there can able to reach this run at the end of the day. But hats of their batsman they played against one of the stronger team South Africa

South Africa set USA a target of 195 runs which was a huge target for USA. South Africa Quinton de Kock and Markram put on a 110-run stand in 60 balls for the second wicket which saw South Africa go for a big total. USA started well in the second innings but fell under run rate pressure due to middle order failure. The sixth-wicket partnership of Harmeet Singh and Andries Gous put on a 43-ball 91-run partnership almost to take the team to victory, but Rabada broke the sixth-wicket partnership in the 19th over. In the end, the United States lost by 18 runs.

Yes in 20 over innings this target can become huge.  But it has been seen in some places that the USA batsmen have given a target of 200.  But with South Africa this target became difficult for them.  Their batsmen work hard and struggled in the match but could not achieve the target.  And will make the match by score only 176 runs.  Had this batsman not scored so many runs South Africa total target would have been 160 but they worked hard and struggle and scored runs and gave a tough target.  If the USA batsmen had a little more pace they could have scored 16 runs and won the match but luck did not favor them and they would lose the match.

In the 44th match of Australia vs Bangladesh team Australia team won the match by DLS method by 28 runs.Bangladesh team came in to bat and scored 140 runs for the loss of 8 wickets.Litton Das was dismissed for 16 runs from 25 balls.Najmul Hossain Shanto was dismissed for 41 runs from 36 balls.  The performance of Australia team players was good for which Australia team won the match by DLS method.

That was a luckiest moment that Bangladesh qualified for the Super 8 round and now they are playing with Australia means the strongest team in cricket world.
Well Australia won the toss and chose to bowl first and Bangladesh is playing their turn now and they are looking little weak in batting. Because they have already lost a wicket and they made only 17 runs in 4 overs. And the current run rate is 4.25 which is very low according to T20I matches. If they will play like this so chances of winning of Bangladesh are looking very low because Australia is a very strong team. By the way cricket is unpredictable so we can't say anything at this time.

Bangladesh tried really to qualify for the super 8 round and now they are in and playing the first match of this round with Australia which you said a strongest team. And I also think they are very strong in cricket. Like we know that they already won ICC ODI World Cup.
And according to the current situation of the match Bangladesh has lost 3 wickets. And they have played half overs means 10 overs and they made only 67 runs. If they will play 20 overs so they can cross 150 runs. And in my point of view this will be a average target for Australian team and they can easily chase. And you are right we can't say anything at this time. So let's see who will win.

You are Right, Bangladesh Poor batting performance in the first match Of Super Eight and Australia won the match by DLD method by 28 runs. In batting first Bangladesh good start after losing early wickets then the second wickets partnership is more than 50 runs helped Bangladesh to score 140 runs in the first inning of the match. The Player of the match is Pat Cummins from Australia for his outstanding bowling performance picked 3 important wickets by just giving only 29 runs and helped Australia to restrict the Bangladesh team to a score of under 150 runs. from Bangladesh Towhid Hridoy played an Aggressive inning of 40 runs hitting powerful sixes but no other players stood with him Shakib also didn't play well.

Bangladesh sqaud played very fantastic matches previously in this competition but in their first match against Australia of this super eight round was displayed very bad performance in batting inning and managing very low scores defeating scores. Bangladesh sqaud has started their inning first with bat and Bangladesh played all 20 overs inning and collected 140 scores, Towhid Hridoy and Najmul Hossain Shanto both were helped a lot to secure more scores but resting batters was cleared out at low and Towhid Hridoy picked 40 scores with players 28 deliveries and Najmul Hossain Shanto also batted 36 deliveries and collect 41 scores. In start of their inning was going very bad and this thing made high pressure on their squad members. Due to interruption of rain overs were reduced and because Of Dls method, Australia made a secure and simple victory in match with 28 scores. Both buile very strong batting partnership David Warner and Travis Head in start and Bangladesh attackers were confused of their dual performance and at last Bangladesh sqaud faced defeat with bad manners.

~ England team seems more likely to win.

South Africa's performance in this year's World Cup may be somewhat erratic. But even then this team managed to continue the winning streak. I don't think England will win this match. I have checked all the statistics of the match between these two teams. So I can't say that the England team is more likely to win. Below are the statistics.

ENG vs SA HEAD-TO-HEAD RECORD IN T20Is

• Matches played: 25
  
• England won: 12
  
• South Africa won: 12
  
• Tied: 0
• No Result: 1
  

The South Africa team is ahead in the statistics of the matches between these two teams in the World Cup.
ENG vs SA HEAD-TO-HEAD RECORD IN T20 WORLD CUP

• Matches played: 6
• England won: 2
  
• South Africa won: 4
  

Result: South Africa beat England by 10 runs (Sharjah; 2021)
source: Sportstar

After looking at these statistics, I can't say England team is favorite in this match. Both teams have equal chances of winning the match. I think South Africa will win today.

We have not seen better batting from the South African batsmen in the past matches. In today's match, England team will win the toss and have taken the fielding decision. And England's bowlers bowled very well today. South Africa's innings stopped today at 163 runs. South Africa collected 163 runs by losing 6 wickets. Apart from De Kock and David Miller, no other batsman can bat better. De Kock scored 65 off 38 balls and Miller scored 43 off 28 balls.

Reece Topley and Adil Rashid bowled very controlled today. Topley did not pick up any wickets. But he gave only 23 runs in 4 overs. And Rashid took 1 wicket with 20 runs in 4 overs. England's chances of winning now seem high.

England vs South Africa underway. The South Africans are playing like sloths at the moment and aren't taking full advantage of the powerplay which isn't good for them considering how good England are batting these days.

Also, I have no idea why Topley and Ali were given the new ball since I would have chosen Archer and Wood instead. Weird decisions!

South Africa are batting well in today's match, aiming to collect a good score. Although two of the stronger teams in this match, England is in bowling form at the moment but will try to keep South Africa under pressure.

Archar bowled well but gave too many runs, his bowling performance took 2 wickets, but the number of runs was too much he gave South Africa too many runs, anyway came at the last minute and took the wicket as now South Africa will be under a lot of pressure.

I don't think South Africa have done a good batting performance today and even scored more runs. .Did you watch the match between England and West Indies where West Indies batted first and scored 180 runs but England won the match by eight wickets.

From this it is understood that the England team is in a very formidable form and they are trying their best to make the opponents eat. England's bowlers bowled very well in today's match due to which they managed to restrict South Africa's strong batting line-up to just 160 runs. We cannot say exactly which team will win today's match, but looking at the total runs collected by South Africa team batsmen, it seems that England team has more chances to win today's match

[N.O]

In the match between West Indies and England team, I lost the bet in support of West Indies team. Just like West Indies team did well in batting, if West Indies team could have done better in bowling line, then West Indies team might have done better. England team batsman Philip Salt excellent batting.  Scored 87 runs off 47 balls for which England team won the match so easily.

The 42nd match between England and west india was played at deran Sammy national stadium. England batting first with won the toss. England chased west indies giving target 180 runs and won the match. Phil salt is a very strong man and in this match he was my favourite batter with England scored 87 runs and 47 balls hitting 7 fours and 5 sixs. I hope West indies they will play better in the next match. England playing amazing and have consistently shown their ability to score well and secure victories in the match. I hope West indies will play well ahead. West indies team also has the potential to with but their team need more hardworking. The poor performance in the west indies man team was shown by Reece topley 3 over 26 runs and took 0 wickets. Congratulations to england for their upcoming matches.

Reece Topley and Adil Rashid bowled very controlled today. Topley did not pick up any wickets. But he gave only 23 runs in 4 overs. And Rashid took 1 wicket with 20 runs in 4 overs. England's chances of winning now seem high.

To be honest, I expected to see more responsible batting from the South African batsmen in today's match. Experienced and T20 specialist batsmen like Marakram and heinrich Klaasen are not playing well today. South African batsmen needed to collect at least 180 today. But apart from De Kock and Miller, no other batsmen can bat well. Opener Reeza Hendricks managed to collect just 19 runs from 26 balls.

But still I would say there is a small chance of South Africa winning if the South African bowlers are able to bowl well. South Africa's bowlers have already managed to take Phil Salt's wicket. England's batsmen managed to collect only 28 runs in 4 overs and lost the wicket of Salt. The match will become exciting only if the South African bowlers can bowl in a controlled manner.

ICC Men's T20 World Cup, 2024 - Super Eight - Match 3, Afghanistan Vs India. India won the toss and elected to bat first. Rohit sharma and Virat Kohli opening Indian Innings. Rohit Sharma out only eight runs. In this ICC World Cup, Virat Kohli did not play very well. In this match, Kholi made 24 runs. Opening a partnership did not manage a good score. After that Suryakumar Yadav played very good Innings he made 53 runs in just 28 balls. India managed 181/8 (20.0 overs). It's a big target for Afghanistan. To chase this target Afghanistan lost their wicket regularly, and they managed 134 (20.0 overs) India made a handsome win against Afghanistan.

I don't think South Africa have done a good batting performance today and even scored more runs. .Did you watch the match between England and West Indies where West Indies batted first and scored 180 runs but England won the match by eight wickets.

I think the target that South Africa gave is not too much and the England team could easily chase it, as we have seen their performance in group stages against Oman when their bowlers' did good bowling but their batsmen did such an amazing batting and made 50 in just first three overs but they also had a loss of their first 2 batsmen.

If the England team will bat with the run rate of 8 then they can win this. They have to make good runs at the start then it could be great for the remaining batsmen to win the match without getting under pressure.

England vs South Africa: Group 2 pace-setters clash

BAN Vs AUS

Australia won the match by DLS method even if it wasn't for the DSL method, Australia would have won because their color rate average was very good. Australia team player played very well in both side batting and bowling especially  David Warner who is the star of the Australia team and is still going like a shining star , he completed his own century and made 35 run in 35 ball and  he also hit three sixes during his innings. And T head  played a  21 bowl's and he scored only 31 runs and also hit two sixes . If talk about bowling side performance of Australia zampa played excellent he took 2 wickets by giving 24 run in 4 overs and o Cummin also played very well he took 3 wickets by giving 29 runs in 4 overs.

But still I would say there is a small chance of South Africa winning if the South African bowlers are able to bowl well. South Africa's bowlers have already managed to take Phil Salt's wicket. England's batsmen managed to collect only 28 runs in 4 overs and lost the wicket of Salt. The match will become exciting only if the South African bowlers can bowl in a controlled manner.

Maybe your prediction will be correct. Although the target is small, it is not an easy task for England to win this match. And the England team is in the press right now.

England's collection was only 63 runs in 11  overs and England lost four important Buttsmen. The batsmen of the top order were very slow. Like the past matches, South Africa bowlers are bowling well in today's match. Rabada, Keeshav Mahraj and Baartman have been able to bowl very well today. England will have to collect 101 runs for winning. Right now, it is much more difficult for the Batsmen in England to score 101  runs in just 9  overs. South Africa is probably in today's match.
