T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Avirunes]

I think you are missing out Australia and India here. Both are equally strong contender for the T20 worldcup. Secondly in T20, a slightly weaker teams also have the chance because it only 20 overs a side. That's why no one can be sure so early on who will win the T20 world cup.

Tbh, Australia yeah ok, but I wouldn't consider India in that league when it comes to T20s. India lacks hard hitters imho. In ODI and Tests, India has the perfect combo. And yeah, even an underling can outperform in T20s if luck favours them.

So, Rahul gone after scoring 52, excellent innings. He lost his wicket after changing his bat. Am I being superstitious  
Shreyas Iyer giving me hope that India will cross 160, back to back sixes and fifty
IND 128/3 in 14.5 overs.

Shreya iyer really doing great there but after scoring 62 runs for 33 balls he gone but still we have power hitters like Manish Pandey so india will give target more 180 to Bangladesh it will going  easy to win the match with series.

India set a target of 175 for Bangladesh but we have bowlers right now who are leaking runs like Khaleel Ahmed so if we don't have a break like Chahal did in last match then I would say Bangladesh have a good chance. Their middle order is a tough backbone to break.

It will be interesting to see how well they bowl now and how good they make pressure on their batsman.

Have due factor in mind too. Fielding and bowling is not going to be easy.

Bangladesh has a huge total to chase and they missed many catching opportunities and that will cost them the match, if they would have taken those catches they could have restricted India well below 160 and now Bangladesh started batting and they will try to score the runs quickly as they are chasing a huge total and Dhawan missed a half chance now, if they are missing catches then Bangladesh can win the match as the Indian bowlers are not having much experience playing international cricket.

There is a proverb that "catch miss means match miss" so it will be in Bangladesh today. They missed more than one catch and made a lot of bad fielding that were going to be a curse on them. The third and fourth batsman has played well so far. If they can maintain this continuity in the end, then some good results can be expected for Bangladesh. Moreover, India will be the winner today.

Bangladesh lost two early wickets but now they are playing really well as they need 65 runs from 44 balls and they have 8 wickets in hand and it is a total they can chase easily with the current standards, unless they loose the composure and starts loosing wickets Bangladesh will win the match. Two bowlers bowled economically really well but the rest of the bowlers went for plenty of runs and i hope Bangladesh will win the series.

Lol. This is easily one of the silliest statements I have read recently. When it comes to current performance levels, India is one of the top contenders in every format of Cricket. Everyone seems to be forgetting the fact that India is experimenting with youngsters currently.

Once Bumrah, Kohli, Jadeja, Shami, MSD etc get back into the squad, they will obviously be far stronger and a force to reckon with. New Zealand are riding on luck majority of the time while England is the only team that poses a serious threat to them in the upcoming World Cup in my opinion.

Kohli, Bumrah, Shami, Jadeja and Dhoni are undoubtedly great players. But can they make a big difference when it comes to T20s? I don't think so.
When I was thinking that India is going to lose this match for sure due to Naim's innings, there goes 2 wickets. Rahim and Mithun gone. Naim still in crease. BAN need 65 of 41 balls. There is still a slight chance for BAN to win this match.

Wonderful match is happeneing between India and Bangladesh . Bamgladesh still require another 59 runs in 6 overs and they have 6 wickets in hand. Only way India can win this match is taking quick wickets and this will help them to put the pressure back on Bangladesh.

What a waste of DRS that was. Why is Rishab Pant making silly mistakes. In previous match we saw keeping gloves ahead of wicket while a stumping and multiple times we have seen him being so confident about an edge and convincing Rohit about the same. Having confidence in appeal is one thing but being fooled by mere excitement is another. I think he should just relax a bit when on field not get overexcited.

Match is definitely still on for Bangladesh if India can't fetch a couple of wickets. Oh just while typing India got a wicket  I think this could be the turning point

Yes that is the turning point because after that Bangladesh are collapsed like a horse of cards, after this india going to win without any trouble. We have note that the Bangladesh really gives good fight till end. I love Deepak performance he taken 6 wicket in 3. 2 overs and give only 7 runs.

[sujonali1819]

This is the real form of Bangladesh. That shows up again and again. The main problem of Bangladesh is their bowling and the batsmen are not consistent. It is true that there are so many good players in Bangladesh, if they can play their game consistently then there will be changed to a big team in the world.

Anyway, congratulations to India in advance. Although there are still 1 overs left. But it is sure that India is going to win.

[Little Mouse]

Great knock by Naim but unlucky that he can't end it.
The wicket of Mushfiq was the turning. Apart from this, batting was good overall. Tonight, the fielding was so bad and that's wehre we lost the match. We could have restricted India within 150, Iyer was dropped twice, he is the hero of Indian innings. Make mistake & you will not pay for that, that's not going to happen. There was a hope of series win but that's gone. Don't know ehen we will once again get this chance.
Congrats Team India.
Lost the bet

This is what exactly happened, Bangladesh missed many catches and that cost them the match and the series, the young players rose to the occasion and Deepak Chahar took 6 wickets giving away just 7 runs which is incredible in any format and Dube picked up crucial wickets, Mohammad Naim played really well for Bangladesh and he is a young talent.

Did India find another Jasprit Bumrah in the form of  Chahar ? Consider both of them playing in the same match then you will feel pity for the opposition.
India batted well today and bowled too well and there was no chance for Bangladesh to beat India.

If these players are back in the team then it will posses a bigger challenge to the rest of the teams, Bumrah, Shami and Buvi are the best fast bowlers in the world and the world cup is in Australia and these players will have a major contribution if India is to win the world cup and the battling line up is the only issue and they need to fix that if they need to compete with England and Australia.

That's true, by the time there is lack of confidence being found on the Indian players by the first ten overs of the Bangladesh innings. Even after the fall of early wickets Naim managed to make a strong comeback scoring good increasing winning probabilities. Once after the wicket fall of Naim the team began to collapse with continued fall of wickets.

Chahar changed the game itself by picking the 6 wickets for 7 runs which is totally unbelievable as in T20 picking so many wickets itself is a big thing . India won the series by 2-1 and played better game of cricket and deserved to win it .

I am really surprised by Chahar he done great works its happen just once in decades and Surely Chahar is new hero for them Bangladesh collapse badly and Naim give just some resistance 9 batsmen fail to reach in double figure which is never been acceptable for any team but Chahar is hero.

India have fought back well in this series to win after Bangladesh went 1-0 up in the series. We all know how good India is but we have seen that Bangladesh will be a real contender in the T20 World Cup when it comes around, India I think still needs to work on their team before then as they do have some weaknesses in their team that they could improve on. Right now Australia look the dominate team in this form of the game.

Bangladesh proved that they can be competitive even without Shakib al Hassan and Tamim Iqbal. But being competitive is not good enough. Yesterday, they lost the match from a very good position, and it was an inexperienced Indian bowler who destroyed them (Deepak Chahar). The performances by players such as Mohammad Naim, Mohammad Mithun and Soumya Sarkar augurs well for the future of the Bangladeshi cricket. No one really expected them to put up a good fight in this series.

But that said, I have to admit that a big gap exists between the big 3 teams and Bangladesh. Right now I would rate Australia as the best T20 team out there, closely followed by India and England. New Zealand can also be put in the same league. West Indies can be competitive, in case their star players chose to represent the national side rather than all those franchise T20 leagues. Bangladesh is simply not at the same level right now. But they can improve their situation.

Jozi Stars. who were the champion in the last league Mzansi,  has lost the 2nd match and are at the bottom of the table with zero points. They were beaten by the Nelson Mandela Bay Giants convincingly yesterday. Just for your knowledge that Chris Gayle is playing for the Jozi but still they are on the losing side.
