T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[BobK71]

In my opinion after the T20 world cup he might get dropped, if he continues to perform in the same manner. It has been three years now and I haven't seen him doing wonders with his bat. His attitude remains the same on the field but his batting is getting worst with every match he plays. There are far better players available at the moment who can replace Kohli.

Will BCCI give Virat Kohli a spot in the World Cup squad if he continues to perform poorly? India has a lot of talented players who are doing much better than Virat Kohli recently. I think Virat Kohli will probably be kept with the squad for the group stage matches, but after that BCCI will not give Kohli another chance unless his performance improves.

I deserve if the T20 World Cup was not too far away then they would have given a chance to some other player. Currently BCCI thinking about Kohli. Some experts expect someone instead of kohli, while many experts think he should be played. But naturally Kohli will have the place as he is an experienced player Where there is no one equal with him in the current Indian team.

Kohli is having a bad time at the moment. He should return to domestic cricket for some time instead of traveling with the national team, otherwise these ongoing failures will put an end to his career. You shouldn't try to regain your form in international cricket. Young talent is waiting in the wings.
Over the past few years, Virat Kohli has proven to be a classy player. It does not mean that he is a bad player just because he is having a bad time. The reflexes aren't there anymore, at least on an English track. There is a lot of talk about Virat, but what is going on inside his mind?

IMO the reason he's not going back to Ranji etc because there is no glory whatsoever when you already served national team for like a decade, this is tough road for any player cause (not just him) of ego as he's already earning millions of dollars every year through various ads contract (not counting IPL's earning). For all domestic appearance you need hunger and i'm assuming that Kohli doesn't think like that, unfortunate things to say but it does look like this.

A player who has been one of the most successful ever in cricket and has dominated for a long time is surely not willing to take a break now. Furthermore, he will not play for the Ranji Trophy unless he absolutely forced.

You know that Virat Kohli is a bit obstinate. So, my guess is, that he is not intending to switch back to playing Ranji trophy or domestic cricket. A lot of ex-professional cricketers have suggested he take a break, but he’s not even listening to that. It is most likely to be problematic for his career in the long run. I think he got caught up too much in the political stuff outside cricket. Now he has to realize that he needs to get back in form quickly. Or he will be replaced.

One simple tweet doesn't mean that he has some sort of backing. Shashi Tharoor is also fan of Indian cricket team and when some new kid turning out to be a speedster then everybody will get excited. It also happened with Nagarkoti when he ran havoc in U19 WC but poor guy got injured.

I guess everyone has a same opinion about Pandya as far as his off field behavior goes but at the same we can't ignore the fact that now he's trying to change his public image due to very same reasons and as cricketer performing quite well too.

In case of Pandya, I agree. He is a family man now and I agree that he's trying quite hard to improve his reputation. But the same can't be said about Kohli. He continues to behave like a monkey, both on-field and off-field. BTW, it's strange that you mentioned about Nagarkoti. There was so much hype about him after the U-19 world cup. And although his bowling partner (Shivam Mavi) is now a regular in the IPL fixtures, I haven't heard anything about Nagarkoti for quite some time now. Anyway, I just hope that Umran won't end up like Nagarkoti.  

I won't go into much details regarding Kohli's personal life but i feel that after diving into bollywood circle he became woke. He used to be very down to earth guy with no mask but now i do have some doubts.

His back injury ruined his career, although he's recovered now and already started travelling with the national team but this time competition is really tough and it won't be easy for him. Krishna, Mavi and Him are belongs to same batch i guess.

Yes Kohli is really playing very bad game lately. The game he gives to the audience on the field can never be Kohli's game.Humans can make mistakes and play badly, but such poor performances always make Kohli questionable If we recall Kohli's game of yesteryear, everything can be seen.However, the latter will play much better and fulfill the expectations of the audience.

At one time we used to see that Kohli was the most favorite person in the Indian team.He still has no shortage of fans. One or two matches may be bad.I think every match after that Kohli will do better.And the visitors will get back that old Kohli. His fiery game will allow the audience to see the old Kohli again in him.

There is plenty of players in the bench that could perform better than Virat Kohli considering his present form where he is struggling to score runs. He was batting well for a very long time and he is going through a rough patch and it will take time to recover and the best players always recovers from this slump in form.

All the players go through these situation and the best players always find a solution to overcome this bad form. Virat Kohli has to find a way to overcome his technical weakness because he bats with a heavy bottom hand and he is not picking the length of the ball like he used to if you go through all of his dismissals after the lockdown.

Kohli still has a lot of fans. Everyone is criticizing Kohli, but if Kohli plays well, these critics will be happy. He has not been in form for a long time. Kohli failed to return to form despite getting opportunities consistently. The audience wants to enjoy Kohli's outstanding performance. There are very few players as talented as Kohli. We don't want his career to end this badly

Zimbabwe had the unfair advantage of receiving $12 million per year in ICC funds. Other teams such as PNG receives around 1% of that amount. But despite all that, Papua New Guinea gave them a good fight yesterday. I will miss them in the next world cup, because they were one of the small number of teams with native players from the Oceania region. And also, I am glad that Netherlands managed to qualify. A few young players are emerging within the Netherlands squad, such as Bas de Leede. The direction of growth for Netherlands has been in the negative direction for the last few decades. Hopefully with younger players performing well, they may once again be able to perform at the top level.

Ireland lost the last one day match against New Zealand by just a hard-breaking 1 run. Naturally, most of the cricket lovers thought that New Zealand would win easily but it was not easy as they had to fight hard to win the last match by just 1 run. Next Jul 18, Mon will play T20 match again with them. They will play three T20 matches in this series, Lets see how Irish team can prove their strength against New Zealand for up coming T20 matches.

It's good to see Zimbabwe back in icc tournaments, back in 90s and early 2000 they were part of every icc major tournament but now they are rarely seen. ICC has made a positive move this time by including 16 nations in the tournament, now it can be said a worldcup.

We don't see a good performance from India in the last World Cup. I expected them to play better before the World Cup. But till now India's performance is not stable. They are not playing well consistently. India will have to be more consistent if the goal is to win the World Cup title. It is now difficult to select the favorite team to win the title

Definitely a good decision from ICC to have 16 teams for this t20 world cup because this will give some good experience to all teams with associates will also try to give better results in this format which is now key for future of this game and having some quality players in franchise leagues as well because now future is just in these leagues which are going to bring some good revenue and countries in better position.

Australia always having amazing hospitality because they have one of the best infrastructure for sports in the world. Zimbabwe is having back in this format but still not good hopes for better results from them because they are falling behind in system and their mostly good players are leaving country due to corruption first need to settle things like this for better results.

When small countries get opportunity to play against the leading teams they'll gain more experience as well as find ways to play in a professional and experienced manner. At times it is possible to see new teams playing good, but all of the sudden the.match used to change completely. They don't know how to withstand those situations. These can be learnt only by playing against the top teams.

England - Australia - India and Pakistan will be top 4 teams.
and I think Australia will win the tournament

Actually it is a 12-team competition, because the initial round doesn't feature any of the big-4 teams. 4 teams will proceed from the initial round, and teams such as India and Pakistan will feature only in the second round. The first round is more like a qualifier tournament, where the main teams doesn't participate. Ideally I would have liked a 24-team competition, with 4 groups of 6 teams each. But then, the current eligibility criteria means that a lot of teams completely consisting of foreigners may also qualify, and that will reduce whatever interest fans have in expanding the world cup.

One main reason is absence of strong cricket teams, that's why we see few teams competing for the T20 and odi worldcups. There are only 5 to 6 cricket teams that are strong enough to compete in every worldcup rest are weak and associate teams. Cricket is old game but still not many countries joined it.
