T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[onecall123]

However the seven match series had turned more interesting with the win of England. Yeah, the team is dependent on few players and their fail completely stops the scoring of the team. From the bowling end, one who bowled well weren't able to keep the form. Dahani and Jamal had a whooping economy of 16.5 and 15 runs per over which needs to be lowered.

Yeah, But look at their top order in the last game. Philip Salt was unbeatable, and his strike rate was 214+. 170 Runs in a T20I is not too bad. It's defendable. Also, It's chasable too. But the way Pakistani bowlers bowled was unexpected and poor. Credit goes to England's batters. They batted very well. The way they batted, it looks like they are chasing 220+. Chasing 170 in 14 overs is extraordinary. Nothing remarkable about Pak bowlers. I hope they will come back in the next match.

The series goes to a decider thanks to Phil Salt's stunning assault and brilliant batting! As a result of his batting attitude, the match was one-sided. The Pakistani team scored a decent total, however. You'd expect this when you played a third-string bowling attack in a crucial match. In the England vs Pakistan series, I have noticed a great deal of fluctuation. There will be a lot of interest in decider match.

Last match Pakistan's runs were relatively low. As a result, England was able to overcome that run very easily. A major weakness of the Pakistani batsman is that once the first 4 wickets fall, they don't spend much time on the remaining wickets. It is very difficult to rely on them. They are performing well and win in any difficult situation again they losing the easy match. So there is no dependency on their team.

Are you saying 170 is relatively low in T20Is? Come on, man. 170 is a decent score in a 20-over game. It was not a low-scoring match. As I already said, 170 is defendable. But, the Pakistani Bowling show was deplorable. The way England batted, They could easily cross the 230+ runs because they had another six overs in hand. So, I won't say it was the fault of Pakistani batters. It was the fault of the Pakistani bowling line. No bowlers were able to create pressure on their batting lineup.

Its a game you never know with T 20. Tomorrow you will say again Pakistan got lucky to win series haha.

We don't know who will win the final match between England and Pakistan but the bookies think that England are more favorite to win this match. Seeing the performance of Pakistan in the last match, i also don't give many points to Pakistan and rather favor England to win the match and series.

Posting here to know if anyone is interested to have a pool for the upcoming T20 world cup. Sorry if it has been already discussed. I didn't take the time to read the last few pages though I have read a few recent replies. We may try to get some sponsors for the pool to make it lucrative. Please reply here if someone is interested. If we got 10+ interested users, we can create one. If Royse777 or JSRAW is up for creating the pool, I'm also requesting them to have their opinion here. Having a pool would be cool, would definitely enjoy it with you.

I was about to create a dedicated thread for the upcoming WC last week but got busy with work. I'll create one soon, may be in next week.

Speaking from experience and being honest  I don't think we won't attract many participants as most of them hardly care for any pool or this small cricket community for obvious reasons, it's disappointing but I hardly blame them for this behavior. 

I'm confused about entry fees, as usual. We know we won't attract many participants even if we keep entry fees around 5 bucks. So how about keeping entry fees to 50 bucks this time?

Suggestions are welcomed. So guys go ahead.

True indeed, we never had a lot of times other than the sponsorship from Sportbet.one (is it). That edition was of free entry fee and attracted a lot of participants. Anyway, we can try to get a bigger amount, that may attract some participants.

That would limit the participants I think. I personally have no problem with 2-3mbtc entry fees but people wouldn't be interested. Let's see what other think. If we get a sponsor, the pool amount will be bigger and in that case, it will be possible to have a larger amount of entry fee too.

I watched today's match completely, I am totally disappointed, I thought Pakistan can do better, Pakistan's batting was very good, but Pakistan's bowlers bowled very badly. It is really a shame for Pakistan. England batsmen were able to play the Pakistani bowlers very easily, they had no confusion to play the Pakistani bowlers. England batsmen played well. England played very well so England deserved to win today's match England batsmen gave a very good performance, Pakistan scored 169 for 6 in 20 overs and set England a target of 170 runs. England achieved the target by two wickets in 16 overs.

Yes it is absolutely true that the match was lost due to the random bowling of the bowlers even though they bowled very well in the last match but could not maintain that consistency in this match but I think I did not find any weak points in the batsmen to say the least because of the lack of consistency in the bowlers of the Pakistani team who lost this match. Maybe the batsmen could have been confused by changing the pace of the bowling

Absolutely right. We can see the weakness of Pakistan's middle order batsmen in every match. I think it's no surprise that England won the way they did yesterday. It is natural for a team like England to win this way. However, Pakistan's bowling department needs to improve for the upcoming T20 World Cup.

Pakistani bowling lineup was good good but at this time they are not performing well. Besides middle order batsmen need to add valuable run in their total. Only Babar and Rizwan are not enough to win the match against team like England. Overall team performance and combination are needed to do well.

A team can only be said to be good when each of their players plays well. But current Pakistan cricket is quite weak in this area. I would also like to say that their bowling line up is quite good but first 2 or 3 wickets in batting are good and others are not satisfactory. In the last match, it looked like they would be able to give a target of around 190 runs, but at the end, they managed to score 169 runs.

I think you should keep the entry fee 20-30 bucks to make the prizepool attractive, 5 bucks is too low amount. Some people won't show their interest if you set the minimum entry fee to 50 bucks. I hadn't participated in any of the previous pool. Cricket is one of my favourite game. I have pretty good idea about the cricket teams and players. But my prediction goes wrong (most of the time) when I place bets on a match. Anyway, I will join in the pool if you create it.

Yes you are right because Pakistan team most of the time in every match they depends on only their few players and I think this is one of the weak point of Pakistan team specially they depends on Babar Azam and today they didn't make good performance from their Bowling side their bowlers were being so costly in this match and the results is this defeat. They should  see both batting and bowling side.

[Sithara007]

Tomorrow's match is going to be the decider. At this point, both the teams have won 3 matches each. Winner of tomorrow's match will lift the trophy. And PCB couldn't have asked for anything more. This series was fiercely competed between the two sides, with huge interest shown by the fans. And I need to congratulate Ramiz Raja. Ever since he became the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board, a lot of good things have happened to Pakistani cricket. Would be nice to have him as the ICC chairman, instead of Barclay.

Is there anything like a minimum number for the pool creation. If so we can have a target and look for participants. If not, lets have a target and start the pool with the interested participants. Last time for the IPL pool too we hadn't got much participants. The total count seems to be 12 or 13.

Lets find a sponsor and frame a rule. If the winner is an entry free participant, the the sponsor amount will be distributed as price. The amount collected through entry can be taken forward for the upcoming big tournament. Because we can't be sure of getting sponsor everytime as we're small cricket community.

[Cryptock]

Pakistan won, really target was so bad by the batting line up of the Pakistan today failed to make a good total still, Pakistani bowlers did amazing job and won the match by the 5 Runs well, that was good match of series as hear patients can watch it hahaha. Well done by Bowlers again i think Pakistan should need to focus on the batting line up as Only Babar,, nooo Only Rizwan is taking all pressure sometimes Asif too.

Pakistan played really well with England - till the last ball it was not clear which team is going to win the match
But well played both the teams

Did anyone watched the awareness match that is being played between India Legends and Sri Lanka Legends. The match was a win for India legends scored 196 runs losing 6 wickets. Sri Lanka have scored 162 runs and this was won by India legends. Naman Ojha have managed to score 108 runs.

Yeah.. India legends won the final match of the Road Safety World Series, by defeating Sri Lanka Legends. The surprise was Sachin Tendulkar, who got out for a golden duck to Nuwan Kulasekara. This time the series was played with a lot of enthusiasm and the matches were of great quality. There were a total of 8 participants (compared to 7 last time). The only addition I would like to have is a team of former associate players such as Steve Tikolo, John Davison, Rudi van Vuuren and Kevin O'Brien. It will make the tournament more diverse. 

BTW, you can watch the highlights here:

India VS South Africa

The second T20 match between these two teams will be played today. India has already won the first match. This match will be crucial for the South African side as if they lose today then they will lose the series. Jaspreet Bhumrah has been ruled out from this series and the upcoming T20WC. Looking at the last match I feel the Indian bowlers performed very well in his absence. I am hoping the same kind of performance from them today.

In the second T20 If India wins today, they will win the series. Otherwise, if Africa wins, the series will alive. There is much possibility that India will win. But South Africa will try to improve from the situation in which India beat South Africa in the last match. But today's match will not be one-sided.

The match is being played in Guwahati (Assam) therefore rain might play spoilsport. I am not expecting the game to get abandoned but there are chances that the match can get reduced. I am expecting this match to be exciting and it might go in favor of the South African side.

If the over is reduced due to rain interruption then the excitement that was working in the match will be also reduced. Here you have to depend on luck. But it would have been better if the match play 20 overs. It is not possible to predict ‍at the moment whose side towards the match will go or who will win the match. The most important thing is that there is a lot of time left for the game to start so we can expect the whole match.
