T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[nhaila]

Bangladesh's top order failed as usual against a weak opponent like Oman. Liton Das returned to the dressing room with 6 runs off 6 balls. And Mehedi Hasan got a duck and returned to the dressing room, he played 4 balls. I don't understand how the Bangladesh team dreams of performing well on a big stage like the World Cup with such a shaky top order. If this team performs against a team like Bharat or England, they will not be able to score even 100 runs.

Top order Batsman liton das and Mehdi just name but not playing well . If Mohammed naime and shakib Al Hasan don't collect runs then it sure that Bangladesh would lost second match also.

[CryptoBuds]

Bangladesh team the best team only for mirpur sher re Bangla national cricket stadium. liton das, mehedi Hassan, musfikur Rahim, Afif already flopped . If Shakib Al Hasan and Mohammed naim could play like others then it would be sure that Bangladesh would all wickets under 100 runs.

I don't understand why the Bangladesh team is giving so many opportunities to Liton Das. He is being given a chance in the T20 format and he is successfully disappointing the fans in every match. I haven't seen a good inning in his last 10 matches. A young player can be given a chance as his replacement. At the same time Mushfiqur Rahim should have batted at least 3 or 4th position. An experienced batsman like him is not for the No. 7 position.

If Tamim Iqbal fit then team management selected Tamim Iqbal and liton das would be neglected. Yes liton das have no good runs till 10 match. Bangladesh team lost their first match agaiy Scotland due to the top order Batsman failure. I think Bangladesh cricket team should rearrange . It's may be political issues...

Again Bangladesh start with a shaky start and lost two early wickets. They have scored on 25 runs in first five overs with 2 wickets lost. Remember this is a power play, so the runs are way too less. The team is not looking confident and i hope Oman would not do upset today.

Its look like the lost in the first match against Scotland and the pressure of winning this must win match, is too much on their nerves. If they play clam, they can easily beat Oman.

Bangladesh is struggling yet again and if they struggle to score a good total on the board then i think the unpredictable Oman could upset them. The Oman openers are really good and so is the reason they won the last match without loosing any wickets but i am not sure how their middle order nor the rest of the players would perform.

If Bangladesh looses this match then it will be difficult for them to get qualified.

Bangladesh lost all their wickets by 153 runs. They have lost 4 wickets in the last 2 overs. Apart from Naim and Shakib, no other batsman can play well. Mahmudullah scored 17 runs and Mushfiqur scored only 6 runs. Oman is not a strong team, moreover the performance of the Bangladeshi players is not improving even though the pitch condition is good enough. It is better that such a team cannot qualify for the World Cup.

After a lot of struggle eventually, they were able to win the match. If they are struggling so much with a weaker side then what will happen when they play with the big teams. Pathetic fielding and bowling by Bangladesh yesterday, simple midfield and catch drops have become regular with this team.

They can't win against teams like Scotland. Bangladesh is proving that their wins at Mirpur was just due to favorable ground conditions. I thought that the defeat against Scotland was a one-off incident. But their performance against Oman yesterday just confirms that their overall form is not good. Now they have just one group match remaining against Papua New Guinea. It should be an easy match, but if they lose it by any chance then they will get kicked out of the world cup. Fortunately for Bangladesh, this time two teams from each group will qualify for the next phase.

This is an accurate depiction of the current condition of the Bangladesh team. With a hard-fought 26-run win over Oman, Bangladesh stayed alive in the T20 World Cup for another couple of days. We are most concerned with winning against associate nations who too fought hard. Even if they qualify barely, how will deal with Pakistan, Australia, India, England, New Zealand compete? What is wrong with Bangladesh? What are their thoughts on their victories at Mirpur which led to this occurrence overseas?

T-20 is brutal format, on their given day minnow can even beat the big teams so i won't read much into it as momentum gets change very quickly. Only reason Bangladesh attracting some critics because they are always considered as underdog but this time 1 associate member emerge as winner and other one manage to put up a okay contest against them. It could happen with other Test playing nations too.

In the match between the Netherlands and Namibia, I am betting on the victory of the Netherlands today. The Netherlands is a much older team. Namibia is new to them. Namibia decided to bowl after winning the toss. An extra advantage is available by batting later on such conditions of pitches. However, the batsmen of the Netherlands are experienced enough. My guess is that the Netherlands will be able to score more than 160 runs today.

Bangladesh team does not have the ability to fight in T20 format against teams like Australia, England and India. Maybe they can fight a bit in the ODI format, but not win. There have been a lot of problems within the team over the last 3/4 years. But Management has not yet taken any steps to solve the problems. There is no experienced opener batsman on the team. It is most needed at the moment. Moreover, no player on the team can play consistently well. We've been seeing the same thing for the last 3/4 years. But there is no change in the Bangladesh team.

Namibia decided to bowl after winning the toss. An extra advantage is available by batting later on such conditions of pitches. However, the batsmen of the Netherlands are experienced enough.

You guessed it, the Netherlands could do more than 160. You guessed it. The Netherlands set a target of 165 runs. Netherland has managed to collect such a good one thanks to Max O'Dowd's remarkable 70-run innings. Namibia scored 184 against Scotland in the warm-up match. Yet they lost the match. So the bowlers of the Netherlands should bowl in a controlled manner. Not allowing Namibian players to score too many runs in power play overs. Only then can the Netherlands win today.

I did not watch the match between the Netherlands and Namibia. Now checking the scoreboard I was surprised. Namibia need 19 runs from 18 balls to win. They lost only 4 wickets and scored 146 runs. David Weise is still unbeaten on 64 off 35 balls. Making 19 off 18 balls is not a difficult task, as David Weise, Namibia will win today.

I lost the bet today. I never thought Namibia would perform so well today. I watched the last few matches in Namibia. They did not perform well. The performance of the Netherlands was better than theirs. However, the Congratulations Team Namibia. They played really well.
The Netherlands has disappointed me. Hopefully Sri Lanka will not disappoint me. They will win against Ireland.

I was thinking to place a bet on Netherlands, but I skipped the match as I had little doubt on them. However, I didn't expect that Namibia will win this match. Because Netherlands had given a big target and Namibia made a bad start of their innings. But they did great in the middle overs and won the game. Though I have placed a small bet on Sri Lanka at 1.4× odds and hoping to win it.

Although the Pakistan team has been in a state of turmoil for some time, they feel good enough to see the performance of their batsmen against South Africa today. The main weakness of the Pakistan team was that their batsmen could not perform regularly. Apart from Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam, no other player could run regularly. Almost every player on the team played well against South Africa today. Fakhar Zaman made 52 off 26 balls and Asif Ali made 32 off 18 balls. Although it is a warm-up match. It doesn't matter. However, I am happy to see that the players are back in form.

So india have won both the warm up matches and that too against good teams like England and Australia and good to see Ashwin taking 2 wickets and giving away only 8 runs. I think he would play in the first match against pakistan along with sir jadeja.

I don't think India Ashwin would be the first preference, even though he bowled good during the practice match but if you see the overall IPL form Rahul Chahar and Varun Chakraborthy have played much better than Ashwin, moreover for Pakistan who has never played both of them they can act like mystery spinners especially Varun Chakraborthy, I think India will definitely play with Chahar or Varun. Also, I even though both the won of India were pretty good, but if you see both Eng as well as Australia weren't much interested in the match, especially Australia who didn't give back bowling to Starc and Ashton Agar both of them were bowling very nicely. Sunday's match will be really interesting to watch.

Today Pakistan Lost the match against South Africa with 6 wickets. Here it's very important that south Africa a good team but not India. So in WC I assume that Pakistan will do the best but India always the best team.

Things are quite different when the actual match is played. Although they might have lost to SA they can still perform exceptionally better when they are playing with India. Well played Indian team they seem to be in high form in the practice matches. On 24th they need to repeat the same performace.

You should not pay too much attention to these warmup matches. The management usually give chances to fringe players and the matches are not 100% competitive. In just 3 days, we have the most important match within this world cup, which is India vs Pakistan. Given the fact that Pakistan has lost all of the recent matches against India, they need this win more than their opponents do. And that doesn't mean that winning the match is any less important for India. If they lose, then Kohli will be in a very bad state.

Yes warmup matches must not be taken seriously as teams just want to try all the combinations , giving a chance for every one to bowl and bat and hence it is totally different from the real match situation. As we have seen Kohli bowl which might be a sign that we can see him bowl in real matches as well.
