T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[coinerer]

I think Australia is a team capable of playing in any format. They have players of all formats in their team, they just use the timing. Their style of cricket is world class. They hope to do well in the upcoming T20 World Cup. All the players in their team are very responsible.

First of all, Australia is not considered as a top-3 team in any of the formats. The current Australian team is perhaps the weakest they ever had in the history of cricket. And I am not sure which player in the current squad is capable of playing in multiple formats. Smith and Labuschagne struggle in limited overs cricket, while players such as Warner and Finch are very weak in test format. And then there are players such as Travis Head and Nathan Lyon who are not suitable for any of the formats.

This year T20 World Cup is going to be held in Australia, Australia can be ahead as their home ground. Most of the teams in Asia will not be able to take advantage of the bounce pitch. However, there are instances of Indian team winning series despite playing in Australia. So I also don't think them as a giant team. I agree with you that current Australian cricketers are much weaker than before.

Yes it is indeed true that home team always get an extra benefit in cricket matches. And I also think that it can be also a great chance to recover them from this bad condition. And the pitches in Australia are fast bowler friendly, and there are a lot of good bowlers in Australia, so I think Australia has the potential to do well in the T20 Cup.

PCB has announced its T20I squad for coming worldcup and surprisingly there is no change in the squad. Team is almost same which participated in Asia cup. Khushdil and iftikhar are again in squad. The only new entry is Shan Masood. I am not very hopeful from this squad.

Yes buddy i totally agree with you as I'm missing some players but that can we do but I'm still hopeful lets see what exciting is coming up next as last time ahhh leave it but 😜 good to focus on coming era. I'm actually missing you on the community thread as i was going to post that why are you not posting but i didn't for some reasons. But thats good to see tou that you are still active hope ao we'll caught up there.

But to the point PCB decision is not excellent still lets rey this one also what comes up next to it is more important.

Agreed about your statement because current Australian side is good at home with few advantages otherwise they can play good against the weakest sides but not good enough for team like India and England which are having good quality on neutral venues even teams like South Africa and Pakistan also beat them in all formats they are going down in quality which is surely a matter of concern for them in last few years with having not good backup and now their system is also going outdated.

They need to work on two teams system which will work better for them one team with having mostly test players and second which give them quality players for ODI and t20 as right now they have enough players in their domestic system which are capable of represent them in all formats without any worry.

The cricket board doesn't take decision as the way we think it. Their decisions are always questionable. Especially, the decision of PCB, BCB and BCCI remains questionable always. Anyway, PCB keep Khushdil and Iftikhar by ignoring their poor performance in Asia cup. BCB has taken Shanto in the squad by ignoring his poor performance in T20 matches.

After seeing this bad performance in Asia cup, BCCI, and BCB did not make any major changes in team selection. After seeing their selection, there was a mixed reaction among the cricket fans. Pakistan's impressive early performance in the Asia Cup didn't explain their weakness, but the last three matches have shown how far behind they are. But they haven't brought much change in this team, which is really disappointing and questionable. I am not happy with the selection of BCCI, PCB, BCB, when they play the World Cup, you will understand how effective these teams are.

For now the focus is T20 format cricket. Just think of the performance from the past. The legendary players mastered cricket and the name still continues for Australia. This makes Australia to stand high even though they lack performance and there is no big player that can be mentioned as a key player.

There is no doubt that one of the major reasons why Pakistan did not perform well at the Asia Cup was that their star player Babar Azam was not able to perform well in this particular tournament.

Despite this, I am quite amazed that they have not changed their squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup after such a lackluster performance. Evan BCB left out their experienced player Mahmud Ullah Riyad from the squad as he did not perform in recent times. In my opinion, it would have been better if Pakistan had made some small changes to their squad and given some more chances to some of the younger players.

I think what you said is absolutely correct.  Australia has very good fast bowling.  They can do better now if they want.  This will be an opportunity for them to do better.  Australia also have good fast bowling.  There is also batting.  I think all in all Shakti Shali is a team.  Australia plays very well in T20 matches.  This is because they play very well due to their good bowling and batting.

Australia is always a good team and they play quality game for all time. I have strong believe that they will gift us a good game on upcoming t-20 world cup. Already the have announced their team with strong bowling and batting line up. I hope they have a great chance to win this world cup. Let's enjoy their game.

Yes, Australia team is already a very strong team. I think Australia team will do very well in this world cup.  I think they are a stronger team now than before. I think Australia is stronger for their fast bowling. Australia can give a good game this time in the World Cup.  I am thinking like you.  But let's see how well Australia can play in the World Cup.

They can play well in their field. But can't say they will get the winning trophy. Because here they have to defeat big opponents. But if they have the ability to beat three teams then they can come away with that victory. One is England another one is new Zealand and the last one is India. But in T20 format there is no opportunity to look down anyone. Any team can shine.

It's too early to say who will win this T20 world cup. Australian team is no doubt a good team but then Indian team is also looking strong along with the Pakistan team. Before the Asia cup, we were not giving any points to Srilankan team but now since they have won the Asia Cup, they are also a strong team. Afghanistan, England and New Zealand all of them are looking in good form and I think we are about to witness one of the most competitive T20 world cup ahead.

I agree with you that neither team can be underestimated here. As I have said before any type of accident can happen at any time where large team can be in danger. If I consider Afghanistan as weak, there is no chance to think because they are also capable of changing the direction of the match at any time.

What do you mean by accident? Do you mean that an important player can get injured at any time of any team or do you mean an upset can happen in any match?

Since T20 is the shortest format of the game, even small teams can have their chances to come and win the games. No team is weak in T20 format and we have witness this in the recent Asia Cup.

Although this X-Factor/impact player isn't a very big success in BBL as teams hardly use it regularly. Let's see how it goes in Indian domestic and IPL.

Didn't know that. I am expecting it to be a bigger success in the IPL since it could prove to be a game-changer sometimes depending on the player. I feel it's an excellent addition regardless of whether it fails or not.

What do you mean by accident? Do you mean that an important player can get injured at any time of any team or do you mean an upset can happen in any match?

He meant to say twists/upsets which occur quite often in the T-20 format when compared to the other formats.

What do you mean by accident? Do you mean that an important player can get injured at any time of any team or do you mean an upset can happen in any match?

In cricket, when small teams play against big teams, naturally the big teams often win but some times also have to face big disasters. For example, Zimbabwe won a match between Australia and Zimbabwe series a few days ago. However, he probably meant the disaster as an accident.

I don't know why im thinking like that but my analysis says now in 2022 the cricket is just for batting line up as almost 80% of the rules goes in favor of the batsman im curios when they are going to to pick new rules for the bowling side as in the recent matches of T20 Asia cup i just came to know about the new after power play fielding rules which are a true favor of the Batsman. If there will be development in the bowling rules i think game will be more intense and exciting.

I agree with the overall sentiment of smash the Batriarchy but..

This specific addition is related to team tactics and game plans and not in favor of batters per se. Teams are allowed to have any batter or bowler from the reserves if the match situation demands.

Cricket always favoured a batter more than a bowler. Now days the emphasis is to find an all rounder talent for the middle order. Most big teams have multiple all rounders in the middle or lower middle order. This occured because T20 demands such player who can both bat and bowl or who can be a wicket keeper as well as a batter. The openers still need to be batters and the rest can be all rounders. The problem is that it is very hard to find such a talent.

Thats obvious when the rules are going to be like that then there will be influence of the Rules on the team to pick as more all in one talent as they can so to be sure they now morefocused on the All rounders but i think that not a good to cricket as if they again remake rules by restriction of Number to be used as All rounder and giving some major eights to the Bowlers the game will be something else

Yes, I totally agree with you because of the small teams here, sometimes they turn the tide of the matches, it's impossible to say that the stronger team loses, nothing can be said until the game is over.

I think there is a very interesting attitude in t20 game even though this game is not very popular but everyone likes to watch this game but yes many players for this game but after a lot of hard work they get a chance to play I think this game is enjoyable.  Many are waiting for
