T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[coinerer]

Yes the way Afghanistani's batsmen are playing is very disappointing.  Currently they lost 6 wickets and the run is 26 in 8 over . Bhuvneshwar Kumar get 5 wicket and gives only 4 runs . This is one of the best bowling record on his career. And Afghanistan is now at only 43/6 in 11 overs and the Current run rate is below 4 and the required run rate is over 20. Now I think this is quite impossible for Afghanistan to win today's match. I think they won't be able to cross 80 runs today .

Cant believe its the same Afghanistan they played so good against Pakistan. Today they allowed India to score 212 runs and in reply at the moment they are 67 for 7 in 15 overs. Afghanistan always do such kind of performance i.e. play too good against Pakistan and give worst performance against India.

Very difficult to overcome such a big run target in T20 matches. India have been eliminated from the Asia Cup but their results in today's match will give some satisfaction. Kohli's amazing batting performance seems to have regained the rhythm in Indian cricket. Their lore will be tougher in the upcoming T20 World Cup. They will try their best with the upcoming T20 World Cup.

I am really enjoying today's game. India threw a big target against Afghanistan. Kohli is back to his old self, but such a performance was needed in the previous game. But today's game will give them confidence for the next matches. India is undoubtedly a good team. However, they could not do anything in the Asia Cup this time. Surely will achieve something good in the upcoming T20 World Cup.

This match is fixed and/or Afghanistan always supports Indians and they want Indians to win. If you see history, this is always the case. You can judge yourself their performance with Srilanka / Pakistan and today's performance against India.

Also, this was the game plan, that Afghanistan will lose badly to India to give India a run rate advantage in case Afghanistan had won the last match against Pakistan but fortunately, Pakistan did not let this manipulation work as they beat Afghanistan and through to the finals.

What was the reason for all the drama between Asif Ali and Fareed Ahmad?

https://twitter.com/saifooqui/status/1567570933845737472

And then things got ugly in the stands and there was a big fight between the Afghan fans and Pakistani fans:

https://twitter.com/AsYouNotWish/status/1567595597997436929

Actually I feel bad about fans from both the sides. Rules in the UAE are very strict. Those who indulge in vandalism will be identified, jailed and then deported. So many cameras inside the stadium and no one can escape.

Its not something new after every loss Afghanistan fans do such kind of things. See today they are very much calm after 101 runs defeat against India. Meanwhile ICC has punished Asif Ali and Fareed by deducting 25% of there match fee, no match suspension for both players. Clearly its Fareed who provoked Asif Ali and the row started.

That's good decision by authority , The behavior of the two of them was not normal. And fining both of them equal match fee I think is perfect punishment. I also saw his post and thought that no matter what the law of UAE is, there is no such behavior here that they should go to jail. Yes I also agree with you that the incident started with Fareed Ahmed but on the contrary, Asif Ali's behavior should have been more professional Such behavior is not really acceptable in the sports.

India is not really supposed to win by such a big margin, because Afghanistan is a very good team. They have very good spinners. Then they lost to India by a big margin. Maybe they have a plan, it took India to leave the Asia Cup. However, the supporters expected something good from India in the Asia Cup, but India could not fulfill their expectations.

Beating India was a big challenge for Afghanistan, but if Afghanistan could have fallen wickets of Indian player Kohli, then maybe Afghanistan's run score could have been with India. Today's hot player Kohli himself managed to win the match.  122 runs, almost everyone is confused about today's match

Did anyone notice that Kholi spoke his heart out after receiving the winning award today.
He mentioned that he sat back and watched what is going on in his life and he appreciated Anoskha for staying by his side.
Great emotional speech!

I have a different opinion on this thought. Because it is not possible to give someone else an opportunity to win by losing. But if it was a series game then the matter could be thought of that way. Afghanistan are the emerging nation in cricket so they will try their best to grab a win. And since neither team has a chance in today's match, they are able to play tension free match and got high score.

Another conspiracy theory and what is the point of fixing in your opinion if the results does not matter. Have some common sense before throwing in these theories  . Do you think there was any spot fixing involved when Pakistan went on to loose 9 wickets and then somehow managed to score the winning runs from an impossible situation and the fight between the Afghanistan and Pakistan players during the final overs as well as the audience riots  which was really unfortunate as people are not willing to take this as a sporting event  .

I don't understand why everyone talks about fixing when India wins. We all know that India gets some extra benefits from ICC. This does not mean that if they win the match will be fixed. The Indian squad is very strong. And with the help of Virat Kohli's 122 runs from 61 balls, India collected more than 200. Afghanistan does not have the ability to win by batting at a target of more than 200 runs. And naturally, Afghanistan was defeated. I don't see any fixing here. India played well they won.

Pakistanis have a habit of spreading such fake conspiracy theories, they think all the teams involved in  India batted fantastically today don't know whether it was that freedom to play without any pressure of qualification or elimination or what. One thing is for sure, Virat should open more often, I know it's equally difficult to shift Rohit or KL on number 3 but Virat has proven himself as an opener so many times. Also after Bumrah & Shami are back, which should obviously be done before the world Cup. Bhuvi, Bumrah & Shami or Bhuvi, Bumrah & Arshdeep can be tried as 3 pacers, but Bhuvi should not be kept for death, he is primarily a swing and seam bowler, he should be given overs early on to take wickets.

@UmerIdrees is having good links inside consortium which is fixing games for the sack of money or India because when Pakistan is winning then all things are going into good and fairly but as any other country specially India is having big win or some better performance than they are crying like babies fixed or not fair play now please grow up and face the truth today both teams were playing without any pressure, and they have done good job with Kohli have better day after two fifties today century which happen after three years is also good for him and his team which is going to help them in coming world cup.

Here both countries peoples are not doing fair views and just giving their own theories which are not good with just enjoy game and try to avoid things which create feud because we are here just for some talk and giving our views about these events we are no judges and any things special which will announces these feuds.

Another reason it is quite evident that India played its game without pressure. In the previous matches it is possible to see players struggling to make little scores. In today's match everyone are good enough to score and give their contributions. At the bowling side, bhuvanesh Kumar did his best. Already India is out of super 4 and what's there to fix the match.

[Sithara007]

It was a dead rubber match anyway, and the win doesn't matter much for India. That said, the controversy surrounding the match between Pakistan and Afghanistan is still not finished. PCB chairman Ramiz Raja has written in official capacity to the ICC, to look in to the clash between two groups of fans. In the letter PCB expresses "anguish" and "frustration" over the way the Afghan fans behaved in the stands. BTW, Sharjah police has announced that they have detained several fans following the incident of hooliganism. 

[rojan]

As of today, both Afghanistan and India have already been eliminated from the Asia Cup, but match day 5 is still scheduled. In the toss, Afghanistan elected to bowl first against India. There will be a fight between India and Afghanistan because it is necessary. Whoever wins or loses doesn't matter. I would like to see Afghanistan win today as a fan. With a win, they deserve to end the Asia Cup on a high note. Throughout the tournament, they played outstanding cricket especially against Pakistan in the last night.

India seems to be batting very comfortably till now eight overs but in Afghanistan Bowlers could not put India under any pressure or take any wickets. And run rate is over 8.8 . Rahul and Virat kohli is already make a huge partnership I think today the winning probability of india is more than Afghanistan.  Today I am selected India for my betting.

India started the game very well.  Virat Kohli He started the game very well. Virat Kohli scored 50 runs off 32 balls.  I hope Virat Kohli will score 100 runs in this match.  KL Rahul scored 44 off 34 balls.  They both play a very good game.  I think if India plays well like this then Bharot will win this match.

Rahul got Catch out by Fareed Ahmeed And Suriya Kumar Yadav was brought in as the next batsman but he hit 6 in the first ball and got bold out in the second ball by Farid Ahmed. I think Afghanistan looks very under pressure in  this match but I think these two wickets are very big for them.  And I think they need to drop at least three or four more wickets in the next four overs to put India under pressure. And with the way India have been playing so far, their run can cross 180 today.

First of all I congratulate India for giving us such a beautiful game.  I thought Virat Kohli would score 100 in this match but he scored 122 off 61 balls.  I think Virat Kohli has contributed the most to India's victory.  I never thought he would play such a beautiful game.  I thought the match would be a tight fight but it wasn't.  India won by 101 runs.

[pakhitheboss]

After watching Kohli yesterday I am assuming that he has regained his lost form. This assumption is not based on a single match but is based on his overall performance in the Asia cup. This is a good sign for team India as next month they will be playing in the T20WC. Just before that tournament if your star batsmen regains his form then it would help and up the morale of the team.

Personally I am not a fan of Indian cricket. Because they always try to influence the ICC. But it is very disturbing that some people consider the fish as fixed if India wins. Batsmen are naturally under some mental pressure while batting at a target of more than 200 runs. This is why the performance of Afghanistan's batsmen was so poor.

Both KL Rahul and Virat Kohli are in great form. A return to form ahead of the World Cup was essential for the Indian team. If these two players are in form, it will be very difficult for any team to beat India. India are favorites to win the next World Cup title. Because there is no consistency in the performance of Australia or England team.

Sri Lankan team won the toss and elected to bowl against Pakistan following the last super 4 Asia Cup match. Since the chasing team has won most of the previous matches, Sri Lanka's decision to bowl first makes sense. I look forward to seeing a good game. We're pleased to see both teams play their entire squad, with senior players not resting unnecessarily.

First wicket is down. Mohammad Rizwan fell to Pramod Madushan. Now the tried and tested combination of Fakhar Zaman and Babar Azam are at the crease, trying to steady the innings. But run rate is going down. Dhananjaya de Silva has been asked to bowl in the first power play and looks like he will be having a decent first over. What would be a decent total in this pitch? My guess is anything above 150-160. Considering the good form of Pakistani pacers such as Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf, that much would be easy to defend.

This all is nothing new because we all know IPL factor is also having his impact on many teams like few years back Michael Clark's statement about Indian players that they have to do some favor for them as if we give them hard challenge then we can lose our luxury IPL contracts is also on record so many feeling in this way few teams and players are surely needs contracts, so they have to done few things for Indian team even in international matches.

I watch few videos on which ball Kohli done his hundred surely this was an easy catch, but fielder On purpose put this out of ground for six with this many other things were going into Indian team favor because right now mostly Afghan players are involved in IPL, and they are desperately looking for these luxury contracts for their better future and good experience.
