T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[blatchcorn]

Rahul Tewatia is a hero for the Gujarat Titans. Who could have thought that he would hit 2 sixes in the last two balls to tilt the game results in the favor of GT. I am sure punjab kings would be 100% sure of a win before these last 2 balls were bowled.

GT remains unbeaten after winning all three matches played till now.

Shubman Gill missed his century by 4 runs, Indian team selectors must now be looking to include him in T20I squad. Rahul Tewatia 2 sixes in his 13 runs innings was the highlight of yesterdays game. Without Rahul Tewatia 2 sixes GT would not able to win the match. GT are now at number 3 in points table with 3 consecutive win.

Rahul Tewatia changed the match upside down,Gujarat Titans needed 12 runs to win in the last 2 balls and Rahul Tewatia once again produced another stunning performance when everyone writes a team off.

He had done this previously (in prior editions).. and he did it this time also. Rahul Tewatia is one of the most under-rated players in the IPL. That said, the bowler (Odean Smith) did a very poor job in defending the total, after an excellent 19th over from Arshdeep Singh. Ideally once Hardik Pandya got out in the first ball of that over, the Punjab Kings should have gained upper hand. But that didn't happened and Smith just threw away a match that they could have easily won. And the captaincy from Punjab (Mayank Agarwal) was pathetic as usual.

Actually have to say something.
Is it just me or everyone else who had a thought about, ” who is this Shahrukh Khan?”  .

Anyway, the ending of that match was really unbelievable. I mean you have to believe that there was no chance when they required 12 out of 2 balls. Obviously, the batsman was also lucky because without a little bit of luck it was obviously impossible in my opinion.

And, I also agree that the captaincy from Punjab was absolutely unbelievably bad and I have never seen the captaincy of Punjab being good, to be honest.

Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad

The match of Chennai vs Hyderabad has just started. Hyderabad won the toss and elected to bowl. Both teams are in very bad shape this season. Both teams have yet to win a match. Chennai has lost all three of their matches, while Hyderabad has lost two. Chennai's batting has started. If they want to win, they have to give at least 180 or more targets. Because this pitch of Dr. DY Patil Stadium is quite helpful for batting. My guess is that Chennai will win today's match for the first time.

Chennai lost their first wicket by just 25 runs. Each team relies on top-order players for large collections. At the end of 4 overs, Chennai collected 32 runs and lost 1 wicket. Moeen Ali is a very experienced player in the T20 format. So today I will expect a good performance from Moeen Ali. Chennai's bowling lineup is not strong. And so even if they can collect 180 runs, they are not sure whether they will be able to win.

Chennai managed to collect 6 runs in 10 overs. Rayudu and Moeen Ali are now in the crease. These two batsmen are very experienced. If they can lengthen their innings, Chennai may be able to collect more than 170 runs easily. Because the Chennai squad has destructive batsmen like Dhoni, Jadeja, Bravo, and Dube. So if Moeen Ali and Rayudu's partnership goes up to 15 overs, then I think Chennai will be able to deliver a big target.

Today I also guessed that today they will be able to give 180/190 run target. But Chennai's batting was quite slow from the start of the match. They lost two wickets very fast. Now at the end of 15 overs they have collected only 108 runs and lost 4 wickets. They need to score at least 60 runs in the last 5 overs if they want to fight to win the match. Jadeja, Dhoni and Bravo must play well today.

Once after the match against Punjab Kings, Jadeja mentioned they will give a come back. I believed this will happen in today's match. Nothing improved and once again they weren't able to make a good target. It was an easy win for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Throughout the entire history of IPL, this seems to be the worst for Chennai to experience a continuous 4 match loss. Another thing it has lost the chance of reaching playoff.

Against Chennai, Hyderabad register their first IPL2022 win while Chennai Super Kings continue their losing streak. Chennai has yet to win in any of their games this season so far. 4 of their 4 matches have ended in losses. No fast bowlers and no aggressive middle order batsmen makes Chennai Super Kings look like the worst team of the IPL. For CSK, this is the end of hope this year; they should now play young players while saying goodbye to their senior players.

I think Chennai super kings have to let go Ms Dhoni and probably need to change their captain  Ravindra Jadeja. They need to bring in new players. Also, Mumbai Indians have also lost all three matches and they may also need to think on bringing some changes.
Both CSK and MI have disappointed in this season.

RCB vs MI match,RCB won by 7 wicket with 9 balls renaming. MI fans very much disappointed with their performance in this season. They didn’t played well in any match this season. Specially their batsman didn’t big score.I think All Mumbai fans missed Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandey and Trent Bolt.Then Mumbai team was very Strong with them.

Letting go of MS Dhoni or changing the captain will not make any changes for the team, the basic problem they are having is that, they are not having any good bowlers and i am surprised in that aspect and not with picking a new captain or including old players in the team. They need a good solid spinner and a good fast bowler who has the ability to pick wickets when the team needs them and until they resolve them, they will struggle.

After checking today League table, feeling it's one of the worst results for MI and CSK because these both teams are at bottom and their performance is lacking something which is wired because both have some good and skilled players but still having nothing on ground. RCB having some good chance of captaincy, and now they are at third with three wins which is very good for them, SRH having their first win of this season.

Today both losing teams have same scorecard on board, and it's chased by opponents in same overs which is interesting even we have still some good number of matches in this season but look like things are not good for these two giants of IPL CSK and MI and new franchise GT is enjoying their good start of season as they are only team with three wins out of three matches.

The weak links for Mumbai Indians is their lack of opening bowling partner for Jasprit Bumrah and their batting collapses. They started really well tonight but then lost all the wickets in quick succession which is really disappointing and yet Suryakumar Yadav showed his class if not RCB would have won much earlier.

CSK is also having issues with the bowling unit, their batsman is scoring runs but they are not able to defend them and surprisingly these two teams are at the bottom of the table which is rare.

For now this isn't gonna happen. When it comes to CSK, with the previous seasons there is no big bowlers and they manage to make wickets and win matches. During the previous seasons, if the batting isn't good in a match then the bowlers will do the best and makes it a winning match. This time when batting is good, there is lack of performance from bowlers. Upcoming two matches will decide whether Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings will have a chance.

Obviously fans from MI have missed players like them but it is natural that a player will not play for a single team in IPL. Still MI has enough quality full players and they have ability to win. They need to find out their lackings and fix those as soon as possible. I hope it will be a great season for MI if they can able to come back perfectly.

I believe that all three are over-rated players (Hard dick, Krunal and Boult). Hard dick is in bad form for the past many years. Once in a while he gives a decent outing and all the commentators and sports experts go ballistic over it. I read an article from Harsha Bhogle a few days back, which claimed that no one can replace the position of Hard dick in the Indian team. I find this laughable. One good performance doesn't make up for poor performances in the last 50 matches. Talented players such as Venkatesh Iyer are being kept out of the team in order to accommodate Hard dick. Hard dick's only contribution to the Indian team is his woke activism, and he was the one who coerced the team members into useless drama such as kneeling for BLM.

Right now, talking about change for playoff is not right because in current season we have 10 teams and every team is going to play at least 18 matches which is good enough for having chance for qualifying in next round after just four defeats surely it is not good start, but these teams can start any time and improve their chances for going through into next round right now CSK and MI both have quality and good players, but sadly they are not managing in winning way which is surely big problem both sides are facing same problem in batting and bowing in presence of good number of players hopefully now in next matches we will have positive results and very interesting competition into this season.

RCB is surely enjoying good after end of Virat era new captain bring some good fortune for them as they are also at top in league table.

Honestly, I don't know what we are so worried about, because only four matches have been played and some teams have played only three matches.
So, it's really a lot early in the tournament to say anything but it does look a little rough for Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings. Not winning a single match can be a big problem later.

Kolkata and Royal challengers Bangalore seem to be having a good time. But I am really interested to see if Gujarat Titans can win their fourth match because then they will be at the top of the point table.

I remember Pandya was a drastic failure in T20 World Cup last year but after that he is made captain of GT. BCCI is definitely happy with him that's why they are giving him so much importance. Even in T20I his performance both in batting and bowling is below average still he is getting more contracts from BCCI.

Though total run was not high but it was not easy win for Lucknow. After 18 overs, I thought that Delhi would win the match. Mustafizur Rahman was excellent in this first 3 overs but at the end of the match, he didn't ball well. Besides, batsman of Delhi didn't perform well except Prithvi Shaw.

The run wasn't high, and from my view this was an easy win. It looked like Lucknow delayed the win avoiding unwanted wicket loss. As the run rate doesn't differ much they're on the comfortable position to win the match. At the end overs with more wickets in hand we can't blame the bowlers. Anyhow new teams are topping the table whereas the more valued franchises were struggling to win.

Lucknow super giant team more strength than DC but totally run collection for Delhi Capital (DC) lower than wining target. So far I guess the total run if would be more than +180 then it would have highly possible to win but run under 150 very tuff to win the pitch...

Delhi Capital scored was pretty low undoubtedly, because it’s very difficult to win with 149 runs in the betting pitch, so i think it seems aren’t winning target. But it was surprised a few DC blowers performances was great especially Mustafizur Rahman and Anrich Nortje, they're tried for victory till the last over but LSG won by 6 wickets and 2 balls was left.
