T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[BobK71]

^^^ It should be a cakewalk for India. But it is T20 format, and can be somewhat unpredictable. So far from what I have seen, India and Pakistan are the two strongest teams in the Super-4 and these two teams are most likely to qualify for the final. So we will get another India vs Pakistan match in this tournament. Perhaps this is the first time in the last two decades that we get three consecutive India vs Pakistan matches. Disney-Star will be extremely happy with all the advertisement revenues and increased viewership.

Haha Cakewalk was made Firewalk in the first 4 overs by sri lanka as they got 2 important wickets there but now india made a recover as 10 overs gone 79 runs here so it would be 170+ if India dont lose wickets so far. But if wickets goes on then it might be 160 range in scence of total score. it would be difficult for the Sri Lanka but still match is dependent on the Inidan bowling side.

Two important wickets fall too quickly for India at the beginning. It is said that at that time they were under a little pressure but after some time they were able to take the team to a good position again. Currently India have scored 119 runs in 14 overs with the loss of 4 wickets. But I think they are still in a good position. This consistency made their run 170 plus. India's bowling line is very strong so 170 is not a small target for Sri Lanka.

Despite losing two wickets very quickly, due to the responsible batting of Rohit Sharma, the Indian team is now in a good position. At the end of 15 overs, they collected 127 runs. In the remaining 5 overs I guess India will be able to score at least 60+ runs. If India can target more than 185 then India can win against Sri Lanka. Indian bowlers are very experienced. It is very difficult for the Sri Lankan players to make such a big collection against them. I expect India to win. Let's see what will happen.
After performing well in a few matches, Virat Kohli returned to the dressing room with zero runs today. But did he lose form again?

It was a crucial knock from Rohit Sharma, 72 runs from 41 deliveries. Virat Kohli and KL Rahul were lost early, so captain's approach was good. An excellent batting performance by Rohit helps the team come back into the game. On the scoreboard, India set a target of 174 runs. 3/24 is quite an impressive result for Madushanka. India post a respectable total, let's see how their bowlers defend it.

[SirLancelot]

Srilanka is in control of the match at the moment. They are regularly taking wickets and Indians aren't able to settle down. Both the set batsmen Rohit Sharma  and Suryakumar Yadav are gone.
I smell an upset today but let's see how the game progresses in the Srilankan innings. Remember Srilanka is used to chasing big scores in the previous matches but this time they may not even have to chase a big score.

Before start of this match I was giving 35% chance to Sri Lanka and 65% to India but now after end of first half now Sri Lanka increase their chance with 45% and India is having 55% they have done good work in bowling and fielding with just 173 runs India is short of 15 to 20 runs from their target even their bowling is good, and they have few quality bowlers who can change things drastically but after back to back two wins is also giving good chance to Sri Lanka as they can do better for themselves and surely this win can give them spot into final which is surely in their mind.
 
Today Just Rohit Sharma was in good touch all others were badly missing their good touch which is very important for matches like these Kohli was the biggest disappointment after having two 50+ today got out on duck is not good for his confidence.

My guess was that India will be able to give a target of more than 190 today. Because the batsmen were able to continue to perform well consistently. But the Indian batsmen's performance today was very disappointing. They did not play well. Apart from Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav, none of the batsmen were able to play well. India set a target of just 174 runs. 174 runs is not enough to win on such a pitch.

At the end of 6 overs, Sri Lanka managed to collect 57 runs without losing any wickets. The match is now completely under Sri Lanka's control. Sri Lanka needs 117 runs from 84 balls. It is not a very difficult task.

[UmerIdrees]

India's bowling line is very strong so 170 is not a small target for Sri Lanka.

Yeah, I can see that Indian bowling is extremely strong. Srilanka scored 57-0 in the first 6 overs 

I don't see anything special in their bowling and even the spin has failed for them. Indian bowling can be compared to any club level bowling.

Hope they are not coming back home early like Bongbros.

Let the IPL heroes come to the home quickly. They are best at IPL at home only or with some mutually fixed matches with big three's.
The outside world, teams like Srilanka are giants for them.

[edgycorner]

India is done boys.
We got 11 fraudsters playing for Team india. Every single one worse than the other.

Can't bowl ✓
Can't bat ✓
Can't field ✓

Paycheck stealers.

Congrats to Sri Lanka. They deserve this win(which is almost inevitable now).

Today, Sri Lanka is performing exceptionally well against India. They already pass a long way to win. Sri Lanka managed to score 90 runs without losing any wicket. The required run rate is 8.73 which is in Sri Lanka's control. Already 10 overs have gone. If Sri Lanka wins today's match then India will be eliminated from this Asia Cup and Sri Lanka's chance will remain. Both teams will give great effort till the last ball in this match.

After watching today's performance of Sri Lankan team look like now they are heading for another Asian Crown because after excellent bowling right now they are doing amazing job and have no space for India in first eight overs right now both openers are playing very good knocks with no chance for any bowler to give them any trouble Hardik Pandya and Arshdeep singh have bad time, and they give good runs in their early overs with now Ashwin in his first over is also concede 11 runs mean Sri Lankans done good homework before this match and one thing is also clear toss is going to be vital to win this match here in the UAE as we are having just one match when Hong Kong fail to achieve target otherwise all teams already done good job and win matches after having target set by opponents.

So far Srilanka are favorite to win this match. They just lost two wickets in 12th over of chahal now India are right back in the game. If Srilanka win today's game then they will qualify for the final and fate of India will be on how Pakistan play in its next two matches. This game will be interesting to watch.

The odds do not suggest that Srilanka are favorite even at this point.
India has taken a few quick wickets and is back in the match. However, it's anyone's game from here on in and more points should be given to the batting side.

But currently Sri Lanka are under some pressure as they have lost 4 wickets. But India is also not in a very favorable position. Sri Lankan batsmen have to play very carefully, no mistakes can be made. India's bowlers need to show their best at this point. We will have to see the end of the game to see who will be the winner.

If you go with odds then India was favorite in last game against Pakistan but result was other way round. At the moment Srilanka need 35 runs on 20 balls with 6 wikcets remaining. There is team favorite at the moment both have equal chances of winning the game.

It is difficult to understand of drama in cricket. Sometimes ago in today's match, Sri Lanka seemed to win, but now a different picture has emerged. In the meantime, a couple of wickets in succession changed everything in the match. Now India is once again dream to victory. You can never say what happens in cricket so you have to wait until the last ball to see what actually happens.

What a fightback by India as their spinners done great job and take few quick wickets even Sri Lanka is still favorite as the damage is already done by openers, but good fight back now Bhuvneshwar Kumar is doing 19th over which is wrong decision by Rohit Sharma as he needs to keep him for last over which is very crucial, and he is experienced campaigner going with youngster in this situation is never been idea but still any result can happen we have to watch this match until last ball bowled both teams are doing good job with India is still short of few runs, but bowlers give them some hopes in this chase.

Edit: Bhuvneswar done poor bowling in 19th over and give easy win to Sri Lanka with back to back two fours, good and entertaining match end with Indian lost.

[UmerIdrees]

India Lost and are out of the Asia Cup

Also, what in the world made you think that Sri Lanka and Afghanistan are better teams than India? I guess there are no limits to your lies.

I am sure, my arguments won't satisfy you so why not wait for tomorrow when India takes on Srilanka and then wait for 8 Sept, when India will pay with Afghanistan, Let's park this discussion till that time  

So you still think I was speaking lies

@UmerIdrees Congrats for Pakistan win but keep one thing in mind they are not out of Asia Cup as tomorrow match is very important if Pakistan won then India and Afghanistan both will be out of this competition and if Pakistan lost then all three teams having chance for qualifying into final with the NRR could be decider for finalist.
In recent time I am checking even India is doing good, but their fans are more overconfidence about them like in above posts someone says today match is cakewalke for India, but they are done by cakewalke. 

[tami40]

Sri Lanka played very well today's match Mendis held on from the start Sri Lanka lost two wickets in a row to India, then Chanaka and Hasaranga turned the game around and Sri Lanka won against India, today's match was very interesting to watch.  If Sri Lanka can play well in the next match, Sri Lanka can play in the Asia Cup final

[Haunebu]

Anyways I never said that Afghanistan / Srilanka are better teams than India. I said that Pakistan had to win an easy game with hong kong to qualify but now India have to win two relatively tough games with tough teams to qualify for the finals.

You literally mentioned that Afghanistan and Sri Lanka are much better teams than India in your earlier post which is why you are clearly changing your words here.

So you still think I was speaking lies 

Lol. Amplifying the text makes you look silly and you did change your words later on. Anyway, you were right and I was wrong which I admit, but India still are alive in the tournament at the moment which is why you are celebrating very early.

India was fully favourite in this match, but Sri Lanka has proven it wrong. Sri Lanka had almost ensured their victory with their opening partnership. But India took control over the games by taking 4 wickets in the middle overs. That's why the betting odds was in favour of India at the moment. Arshdeep did quite well in the last over, but the required run wasn't so high. Sri Lanka has entered in the final as a first team. They lost the first match very badly against Afghanistan. No one expected such comeback from the Sri Lankan team. 19 runs were needed in the last 10 balls. I placed a bet on Sri Lanka at the moment and won it.
