T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[YinShuiSiYuan]

If India want to win the match they need to knock out the Pakistan batting first so if they can knock out all the good players then India have a chance to win this match.

Babar is gone once again without scoring big runs. Pakistan at the moment are going 6 runs per over and that's what exactly India want them to play. Fakhar Zaman was the real man who gave 8 runs due to his misfielding on last balls of inning.  He need to score runs because he is most useless player in Pakistan side.

I think India might lose this match. Kohli's contribution today was like wheter he was playing an ODI or a test cricket l. This is stupidity at his level best!

India will probably win this one too. You are forgetting that this is a T-20 where twists happen frequently. Also, Kohli scored 60 from 44 balls. How the heck is that slow batting?

Woah! Calm down. Everyone makes mistakes now and then and Zaman is no exception. The best fielders in the world mess up sometimes dude.

He's playing well at the moment, but the Indian bowlers(Especially Hardik) won't make it easy for them. Pakistan will need some big partnerships if they wish to win this one.

The way India started the opening, it seemed that 200 runs would be easily crossed today but it seems that Pakistan managed to put some pressure during the middle overs, maybe it stopped india in  181 runs . I think it is also  a big target for Pakistan against India, Pakistan might need a lot of momentum for this . And talking about win probability, I will give India 70%.

If Pakistan can play with their wickets. Then there is the possibility. There are some bowlers in India, who are very much experienced. Where it will be difficult for Pakistan to get more run. Today, Pakistan will try to win the the match. In the meantime 7.4 Pakistan 1 has been able to score only 55 runs. At this moment, India is quite ahead from Pakistan.

No one knows where this match is heading and who will win this battle but till now i think India is on the top. Pakistan team are behind the run rate and if India manages to take one or two quick wickets now, it will just shatter their confidence and hope to win the match. The only hope for Pakistan is to keep scoring runs for the next six to seven overs without losing wickets as this will set as a launchpad for the latter batsmen to follow.
At some moment, Pakistan has to speed up the run rate before the required rate become too difficult.

Fakhar is gone after scoring 15 runs of 18 balls. He needs some rest just like kohli took some rest before making a come back. Pakistan at the moment are struggling and India are in complete control of the match. 67 runs in 9 overs won't take you to victory if u are chasing 181.

Pakistan is playing relatively well now. Even if they lose against India, their run difference will be maybe 4-5 runs . But if Pakistan can bat well then they still have a chance to beat India . Pakistan played only 11 overs yet. and more 9 overs left to end the game . Although I am a supporter of India, I wish all the best for Pakistan

63 needed of 36 balls with 8 wickets in hands. Pakistan need few big over before the game enter last overs. The game is very much balanced at the moment. If India can pick one or quick wickets then defiantly they will win the game. Pakistan chances of winning are 68% at the moment.

I would disagree here that winning the toss would mean winning the matches. Srilanka managed to win against Afghanistan and Bangladesh by playing good cricket and both matches were close and could have gone in any direction.

I would say that the matches are really interesting to watch and full of thrill and excitement. Though teams are winning through chasing but they have to work hard for it.

The reason is bowling in the second innings is a difficult aspect considering the high humidity which makes them harder for the bowlers to grip the ball. If you watched the matches you will understand that bowlers are struggling in the second innings either due to cramps and wet ball.

India started really good but loosing wickets at regular intervals. Hardik Pandya gone for a duck and now Deepak Hooda is in the crease along with Virat Kohli and lost half the side and if India does not put a total above 190, it is going to be difficult to defend.

India has actually played really well in this match. They have put on a really good total but the total should have been a lot more. I expected the target to be more than 200, especially with the way the Indians started the innings. Right now Pakistan is batting and they need 63 from 36. They have eight wickets in hand so this is very much doable for Pakistan. This is going to be an interesting and nail-biting finish waiting for us.

Pakistan have taken control of the Match. Mohammad Nawaz have started to blast. More 50 runs required in 32 balls. More 8 wickets remaining, and this is gonna be a easy win for Pakistan. Both the teams have played 10 H2H matches, this is the 11^th match. In that India have won 8 matches and 2 were won by Pakistan. With this match Pakistan adds one more to its winning number.

[YinShuiSiYuan]

Pakistan are very much down and out and its India who are favorite at the moment. Last 12 balls and 27 runs required, both nawaz and Rizwan are out. Khushdil and asif are not able to play big shorts which Pakistan need at the moment.

[Hamza2424]

Pakistan Won the Match Alhamdulliah.
A very Suspensive match ohhh really 2 on 2 then a double run and won that was crazy man my heart blowing haha. Love you Rizwan dear still Babar Performance was sooo much pooor all the pressure is handled by the Rizwan. But whatever happened we won the match by 5 wickets situation was similar to last time but this time Pakistan was on batting side.

[romero121]

Mistakes from India at the depth overs made Pakistan win at the last over with a ball left. During the 18th over India got a chance, but dropped catch of Asif Ali from Arshdeep Singh once again kept the momentum of Pakistan continue. During the 19th over, the pressure on bowler continued. Somehow things got close with the 20th over, and finally in the 5th ball of the over with 4 Pakistan won the match. Since 2014 it is the first time India is losing to Pakistan in Asia Cup.

A lot of drama all around and in the end, it was Pakistan who crossed the finish line and was a winner.  Yes, Arshdeep Singh dropped the catch but then Fakhar also gave 2 boundaries in the last two balls when India were batting. If that did not happen, Pakistan would have to score even 7 runs less.

We can keep commenting on IF and BUTs of the match, but the result is what matter in the end.

It's a great match i really enjoyed it. Such type of match is not available all the moment. Most of the time it is one sided especially for big scoring match. But today both teams have performed very well. The worldwide recognize the reputation of the India Pakistan match remains at the top position. Today the entire cricket world enjoyed this game very much.

An awesome game of cricket. The match went back and forth till the end. In the Pakistan won and that's what ultimately matters.

I think both the team played really well, but with this kind of death bowling India obviously can't expect to win big and close encounters, obviously, Bumrah is being missed at this  crucial time, also I didn't really understand the idea behind removing DK from the match, you added him in the first match to give him a chance than even when he has not even got a chance you have removed him from the XI. Secondly, India's strategy is to bring one less pacer in the main 15 as well. At least 4 full-time pacers shall always be there. You should decide for 2 between Bishnoi, Chahal & Ashwin also especially when you have Jadeja and Hooda. That 19 run over from Bhuvaneshwar was the game changer.

The situation was similar like Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka match. 26 runs were needed in the last 2 overs. Pakistan has collected 19 runs in the 19th over and reduced the pressure from them. They were close to the victory within the first two balls of last over. But Arshdeep made the game alive for India by giving a dot ball and taking a wicket in the next two balls. The game was full of excitement and Pakistan got the taste of the victory. Perhaps, Pakistan will surely enter in the final. I have some doubts about India now, they must need victory against Sri Lanka in the next match.

The last over was very crucial - I am amazed to see how Pakistani and Indian fans were watching the cricket.
There was so much suspense and enthusiasm - people were standing in the stadium till the last ball.
Congrats team Pakistan - well played India.

This match was similar to India vs Pakistan matches of those old days. The way Arshdeep Singh bowled in the last over, Indian fans were also hoping for a win or a tie. On the other hand, Pakistan fans were cheering to win this match. This match was a complete cricket match. Which is a match to remember for cricket fans.

[SATWAT]

Regardless of who will win today's toss and who will bat first, the odds suggest that India still have the upper hand and they have more likely to win this battle.

I would like to know the community opinion, as what they think who has the more chances of winning today's match; India or Pakistan ?




You can bet on these odds at stake.com

I am in a fix as to which team will win today. Both teams have incredible players but Babar Azam's form can be questioned in this tournament. For India KL Rahul and Virat Kohli can be seen struggling to score sixes or fours. Both teams have excellent bowlers too and this game might be decided by the performance of bowlers again.

It is also not easy to predict a T20 match as in the end the team that is able to handle the pressure will win. I am hoping for another close and intense match today between these two teams.

After a few watching of the live feed and watching playing for the sake of records. I think India might lose this match. Kohli's contribution today was like wheter he was playing an ODI or a test cricket l. This is stupidity at his level best!

@pakhitheboss good point I was also feeling in this way two important players were not giving their best in this match, so Indian lost were written before start of this match hopefully now we have these teams third time in this event facing each other as final is going to play on Sunday and this is surely going to be big bonus for media houses they could be ended with millions of USD in their pockets because now after this event we have only T-20 World Cup in Australia and then long break.
