T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[onecall123]

Jesus! Kohli's cover drive and wristy sixes over deep mid-wicket could give a boner to any traditional or fast-paced cricket (T-20) fan.

He looks so arrogant in a weirdly good way when he strikes like that, and we see this consistently as far as limited over cricket is concerned. Hope he goes into god mode level when WC comes, fingers crossed.

what a batting!
We witness Virat Kohli's departure after making a strong start. It surely was a much-needed breakthrough for LSG but before that Kohli playing a brilliant inning of 61 runs. Watching such eye-catching innings from him is always a pleasure for cricket enthusiasts. Although it would have been great to see him continue for a bit longer, but anyway his side Bangalore appears to be in a good position at this stage.

Yeah. He is in peak form these days and might end up acquiring another orange cap at this rate. Also, Du Plessis is in peak form too and is more consistent than him which is great for RCB.

However, RCB is over-dependent on Kohli, Faf and Maxwell which is a big weakness that they need to fix asap if they wish to move to the playoffs stage.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru VS Lucknow Super Giants

I am very excited about today's match between Bengaluru vs LSG. This match is expected to be very competitive. Because both teams are in very good form. Despite the unfortunate loss against Chennai, the LSG team won easily against Hyderabad and Delhi. Their performance was very good.
On the other hand, Bengaluru's performance is not stable. But their squad is very strong. They have several world-class batsmen in their squad. My prediction for this match is that both teams will be able to score more than 180. And I am willing to bet on Bengaluru to win.

I guess that Royal Challengers Bangalore did a good thing by not losing many wickets and scoring 152 runs with the loss of one wicket only. However, i think that they need to push this score to 200 runs as otherwise, it will be no use that the team saved wickets but was unable to capitalize on it at the end.

Still, four overs left for Bangalore to score as many runs as possible. Remember that Lucknow Super Giants have a good batting line up to chase any score under 200.

Our lad is show stopper without any doubt.

Anyway, if Lucknow wins the match tonight then all credit goes to one and only KL Rahul. This divine individual sacrificed his wicket so that Nicholas Pooran can show his batting prowess on the 22 yard pitch.

Lol seriously why he's the captain BTW,  what he has done yo deserve this title. 
Good batting by Lucknow Super Giants obviously other than KL Rahul,  they did everything you win this match specially their middle order.

[WatChe]

It's not unusual. Because large money you spend on team you will usually be able to recruit good players. And those who are relatively weak financially will try to create a reliable team like them. But can you achieve the crown of the final by spending more money? is there any guarantee? Of course not. In that case, the weak franchisees also try to win that transient through some potential players. In that case, the cost of their money will also be reduced. There is a lot of evidence in all these tournaments where rich franchise team cannot survive for the final.

I think weak teams can do few upsets but in the long run the team having best players make it to next round. Since there are too many matches to be played and you (the weaker one) cant beat the best one every time they came across. Just look at the team combination of RCB, they go the best batsmen but they don't focus on buying the same level of bowler and result is evident in current game. RCB scored 212 runs playing first and there bowling lineup is not able to defend such a huge target. 2 runs required on 3 balls

Royal Challengers Bangalore set a big target in today's match but even that target was not safe for them. Because opponent Lucknow Super Giants easily surpassed their target and won this match. If you win by chasing 206 runs, there is certainly evidence of the failure of the bowlers.
Kohli, du Plessis, Maxwell and Karthik each scored well but rival Nicholas Pooran managed to good score than all others. He played an innings of 62 runs off 19 balls. Which was really awesome. When 4 runs were needed from the last 4 balls, there was a lot of tension over the calculation of the match but in the end Lucknow Super Giants secured their victory.

Wow today match was fantastic and tough. LSG is win. It was a very exciting and thrilling match The previous day Punjab Kings had made the match boring with their poor batting and bowling and they were also under a lot of pressure. Yet today's match between RCB and LSG was very entertaining as both teams put up great performances. Although only one team can win both teams played well.
RCB did a great job in completing a tough target. Pooran and Stoinis played very well with Stoinis scoring 65 runs in just 30 balls and Pooran making 62 runs in 19 balls. I am very excited to watch this match.

[Haunebu]

Another unbelievable result. I turned off the TV after watching Lucknow lose Mayers, Rahul etc cheaply and the target itself was huge which is why I never expected them to bounce back in such an amazing manner.

Pooran almost equalled the fastest 50 in IPL history while Stoinis was amazing too. Harshal Patel and DK messed up run-out chances which could have changed the game. Pitiful RCB!

The IPL games are packed to the brim. In every match, the teams are fighting to the end. However, some teams have in-form players for whom those teams are losing matches that are helping to secure victories.

Another classic RCB match is on display. It was really going for them. However, RCB had to miss out on a number of important opportunities. Of course, no one expected this type of performance from the middle order of LSG. In the end, all I can say is that it would be a dumb idea to support the Royal Challengers Bangalore team in any way.

In franchisee cricket, it seems that any team that Virat Kohli is associated with is not doing well. Right when I think that finally RCB has created a position from where they cannot lose, they somehow prove me wrong.

Stoinis and Pooran made the game easy for LSG, but the ending was dramatic. Ayush Badoni hit a six in the 19th over, unfortunately his bat hit the stamp at the same time and he was given out for hitting the wicket. LSG would have won the match in the 19th over if this incident didn't happen. These types of matches are making this IPL season more enjoyable.

Marcus Stoinis 65(30) and Nicholas Pooran 62(19) were enough to lift Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) to victory in today's match. Nicholas Pooran holds the record for the fastest half-century in the IPL season today and he scored 62 off 19 balls in today's match with over boundaries and 11 boundaries (4 fours + 7 sixes). On the other hand Marcus Stoinis scored his IPL career highest 65 yesterday and he had to face 30 balls to collect this run. However, there were many exciting moments in yesterday's match.

It was all gone to the last ball where LSG needed 1 run with one wicket left. Had Dinesh Karthik collected the ball cleanly, RCB might have won the game. Anyways a good match to watch, kohli had another good game as he scored 61 runs on just 44 balls. RCB batsmen have done the hard work but it's there bowling lineup who weren't able to play there part. Parnell and Siraj picked 3 wikcets each, still LSG were able to chase the target.

The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) earned a deserving victory thanks to an incredible show of batting prowess and technique. Congratulations to the squad on an outstanding victory Fans will definitely be buzzing with joy after Stoinis and Pooran's outstanding efforts which were crucial to the team's win.

Chasing a target of 213 is never going to be easy, but somehow Lucknow Super Giants managed to do it. And my condolences to Royal Challengers Bangalore. If they can't win a match after setting up a 210+ target, then I don't know whether they will ever win anything. All the effort from Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell was wasted yesterday. And let's not forget the fact that the Lucknow Super Giants at one point were reeling at 23/3 after 4 overs. But those superhuman knocks from Nicholas Pooran and Marcus Stoinis just destroyed RCB. 62 runs from 19 balls? Seriously?

What happened yesterday was un imaginable . Thanks to some lose bowling LSG were able to clear the big run gap. The match was a nail biting one as till the last ball certainty never prevailed. I personally was expecting super over but that did not happened.

Nicholas Pooran breaks the record of Rahane for the fastest 50 in IPL. As usual KL Rahul did what he is known for best. He batted as if he was playing and ODI series. His form has been the main concern and I think it would hamper his selection in the Indian squad.

Some crazy bowling by Wood and Shiraz. They both kept the batter guessing as what ball will be bowled next. Shiraz has improved his balling immensely Inam sure he will be part of the playing 11 in the upcoming ODIWC.

Bengaluru has given more importance to their batting side in their team formation. The team has several star batsmen. Despite having some great batsmen like Virat Kohli, du Plessis, Maxwell, and Dinesh Karthik, their bowling line-up is also weak. And even after giving a huge target of 213 runs, they could not win. Apart from Mohammad Siraj, I don't like the performance of any batsman in the team. If the bowling is so weak, I don't expect a good overall performance from Bengaluru. Of course, the bowlers have to bowl more controlled. It is impossible to sustain consistently good performances in IPL with the help of batsmen's good performance alone.
