T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[JSRAW]

Talking about rich ones yaar not developing world.

Tell me one thing how its fair to sponser any team, which has higher per capita from India?

We don't see such kind of generosity in other sports, I would very much like this system in other sports too.

OK.. maybe you are talking about teams such as Scotland and Netherlands. But even in this case, the cricket boards hardly get any funding from the government, since cricket is not an Olympic sport. IMO, it is unfair to them, as they receive only around $200K to $400K per year from the ICC. For comparison, Zimbabwe receive around $12 million every year. I want something like this:

25% of the funds to BCCI
25% of the funds to the other top-5 test teams
25% of the funds to remaining test nations
25% of the funds to associate nations

I've said earlier that I have virtually no problem if ICC equally distributes every penny to each nation but for this, they should've multiple team tournaments, not just 10-12 teams.

Idk what is current share of BCCI but if I remember correctly it was around 28% after the BIG-3 project faced opposition so not sure if more cuts in revenue going to sit well with the BCCI.

Gambling houses also tend to disagree that Afghanistan is a strong team. See the odds for the today's match. Srilanka clear favorite with 1.44 while Afghanistan is an underdog. '

If you think that Afghanistan is a strong team and can win against these odds, i will suggest you place a bet on Afghanistan as 2.66 is a very good odd to bet if you are confident about the Afghanistan win today.

Odds are important but are not the final parameter that decides which team will win. T20I format is very unpredictable and any team can win. Seeing the performance of Srilanka in recent T20I matches, I think both teams are very much balanced and it can be anybody game today. Big match coming tomorrow, Pakistan vs India.

I agree with you that results sometimes are opposite of what odds are saying but still gambling houses look at a lot of parameters before they give such odds. They never give big odds to a favorite team as they are also here to make money when people loses the bet.
Anyways the match will begin in about 2 hours and in about 6 hours we will see who will win the match

i will use to disagree with the point of Afghanistan as a week opponent. Point is how they perform today i am sure that Afghanistan is going to make a tough fight for Sri Lanka as according to my recent views. One more thing this is the very first match which is going to be played over there and pitches are very fresh so in the beginning the bowling team has some of advantages for the fast bowlers.

You are right I already decided that I am gonna put some money on the sri Lanka's side but I would also didn't underestimate Afghanistan team . Because they have hard heater batsman it's a  plus point for t-20 and aslo thing they have great spinners but I think it that pitch is friendly for fast bowlers . So I think it could be a plus point for Sri Lanka for win so now If their batsmen can do well then I think they will win

Afghanistan won the toss and elected to bowl first. It would be great if Sri Lanka won today, but I think Afghanistan is the best opponent. After struggling in their own ways, both teams have achieved wonderful things recently. Best wishes to Sri Lanka and Afghanistan. In the game, the Lions are the favorites, but Afghanistan can fight well due to their hard heater batsmen, and they will also chase down the target.

Lol , it looks like everyone is underestimating the Afghanistan team including the gambling sites and here we are with Srilanka 3-2.  

What a start for Naveen, Fazalhaq Farooqi and Afganistan who took two wickets. Look like we are heading for an upset or a close finish match.

Edit: It's 5-3    What's happening...diaster start for the srilankans

[noormcs5]

It does not take much time to change the odds and now it is not much attractive to bet on Afghanistan. The current odds are only 1.27.
However, those who took the risk before the start of the match and bet on Afghanistan, they are likely to gain good money by the need of the match provided Afghanistan manages to capitalize on this situation and win the match.

[Vaskiy]

Afghanistan vs Sri Lanka match is gonna be unforgettable for both the teams. None could've expected such a performance from Sri Lanka. The innings that is predicted to end within 100 runs have reached 105 runs losing every wickets. If Afghanistan play with the right momentum, this could be an easy win for them.

Now the betting odds is 1.01× for Afghanistan win. They are going to win this match without any doubt. Sri Lankan team got all out in 105 runs. They batted very badly in front of Afghanistan bowlers. Where Afghanistan openers has made the partnership of 83 runs in just 6 overs. Now they need 23 runs only to win the match. At first I thought that the pitch isn't batting friendly, but Afghanistan players has proved it wrong.

What a comfortable win from Afghanistan team. Match is being won on the 11th over 1^st ball. This match winning from Afghanistan will create fear among the other teams. Completely an one sided won. Now on each and every match will be important for the top teams. Everyone had the same thoughts about the pitch, but the reality is different. Sri Lanka wasn't able to give the best as Afghanistan bowlers kept everything in control.

Afghanistan proved again that they are not a small team, they are much qualified in T20 matches. Everyone thought that Afghanistan would lose the match but the opposite happened. Sri Lanka could not run the match longer. Sri Lanka lost all the wickets to score only 105 runs. They could not put up any batting resistance in front of the Afghanistan bowlers. As a result they had to consign very weakly.

What an ideal start in this Asia Cup for Afghanistan they completely outclass Sri Lanka in batting and then in bowling 105 runs target they achieved Rajapaksa and Karunaratne only two which give some hopes to Sri Lanka, and they reached at this score otherwise as they were playing mostly peoples were feeling they are going to merely reach at 70 or 80 runs Farooqi, Mujeeb and Mohammad Nabi were the heroes for Afghanistan in their one of the best win in recent times.

Zazai and Gurbaz both have thrashing start of their campaign in this event and reached very quickly on their target with the lost of two wickets now most chances they are going to top this group and going to be strong case for having no 2 team from other group for semifinal.

Srilanka performance was disappointing today. No one was expecting such batting performance from srilanka againest Afghanistan. Thanks to Bhanuka Rajapaksa 38 and Chamika Karunaratne 31, srilanka were able to cross 100 runs. With this win Afghanistan proved that they are one of strong contender for this cup.

Calling the Afghanistan team strong? This team lost the series against Ireland a few days back. I don't think the Afghanistan team is strong. They have a lot of good players in their squad I know. But there is no consistency in their performance. If the squad had 3/4 batsmen who could play well regularly, I would have considered Afghanistan a strong team.
However, the Afghanistan squad has some outstanding bowlers. Because of this they were able to perform well against Sri Lanka today. It was unexpected that Sri Lanka would lose all wickets for just 105 runs.

Yeah, its more like the Srilanlan squad just disappointing everyone with their performance. In any case, Bangladesh has a very good chance of making it to the next round because SL's NRR is absolutely horrible now.

Actually the problem with Afghanistan is their batting only, only one department that they have is actually good which is the spin department, rest even their pace, even their batting is bad, they lost against Ierland only because pitches lacked spin and their bowlers couldn't do that well. Today also if you see they won because their bowlers took early wickets and spinners built that pressure on Sri Lanka, making 100 runs in 20 overs is an easy task for any team, especially after the result it's almost sure, they will go into the super 4 atleast, and if they have beaten Sri Lanka this easily I won't be too surprised if Bangladesh also lose against them.

I missed the match completely, i saw Afghanistan being an heavy underdog coming into the match and i was not sure how Sri Lanka would perform but right after the toss it looked like Afghanistan controlled the match and chased the total with ease.

We have India and Pakistan coming up which is a rare encounter for a decade and it will be a huge match. Even though India is the favorite among the bookers, i have to look at the team before placing any bet.

The match is expected to be very interesting, because after a 10 wicket defeat India in the ICC T20 World Cup it is the first time both the teams are playing. Indian bowlers need to be strong to restrict the openers Babar Azam and Rizwan, if not this is going to be hard for India. Bhuvanesh Kumar is in with the pace attack as Bumrah is out on injury. Right now the winning probability is high on India, and this changes according to the match situation.

Although the game is very interesting, there will not be much excitement in this game because the players have some players who play very poorly and some players who play very well, but the combination of the two does not seem to count in Canada.

As expected Alhamdulliah, My prediction got true everyone was underestimating the Afghanistan and here it comes AFG won the match by huge lead as per my technical analysis of Bowling advantage nevermind. By the way I'm damnn sure that you guys better know I'm a good fan of T 20 not of Gambling never ever.

So lets figure out today's match the Match of the Tournament PAK Vs India. Best Match ever a worthy opponent team for PAK and IND as well no prediction for today's match just gonna chill and enjoy the Beauty of the match.

[virasog]

Calling the Afghanistan team strong? This team lost the series against Ireland a few days back. I don't think the Afghanistan team is strong. They have a lot of good players in their squad I know. But there is no consistency in their performance.

That's the reason they had the advantage in T20 cricket. Even if one or two players play well, the team is well placed in T20 matches. In ODI and test matches you require more consistence performances.

Now the betting odds is 1.01× for Afghanistan win. They are going to win this match without any doubt. Sri Lankan team got all out in 105 runs. They batted very badly in front of Afghanistan bowlers. Where Afghanistan openers has made the partnership of 83 runs in just 6 overs. Now they need 23 runs only to win the match. At first I thought that the pitch isn't batting friendly, but Afghanistan players has proved it wrong.

Afghanistan batsmen just crushed the Sri Lankan team and had a convincing win. No one thought this match will turn out to be one sided in the favor of Afghanistan. Chasing the target in just 10 overs with only 2 wickets down is a sign that this team means business here.
