T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Sithara007]

I have been watching the score for this series on cricinfo but could not find these matches live coverage on any TV Channel.

Can you tell on which TV channel you are viewing this series?

I have been watching the Caribbean Premier League on Fancode App, which is covering the matches live in India. Apart from Fancode, Star Sports is telecasting the matches live on TV within India.

Today we have the two semi finals for the Asian Games Women's Cricket Competition. The first one is already in progress where Bangladesh are struggling with 7 wickets down and the score is only 34 runs. India will surely win this Semi-final.
The other semi-final between Pakistan Women and Srilankan Women will be played later today.

Bangladesh bowled out for 52 after 17.5 overs. This is going to be another cakewalk for India. Nigar Sultana, with her 12 was the only batter to score in double digits. The Indian bowlers were exceptional. Pooja Vastrakar got 4 wickets, while Titas Sadhu was exceptional in her opening spell. In around 3 hours from now, the second semi-final will be played between Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

In this game of Bangladesh women's team, Bangladesh performed very poorly because in terms of batting, no batsman could stay on the field for a long time. However, India defeated Bangladesh with a lot of momentum in the team. The fall of wickets from the start has left Bangladesh utterly destitute. So Bangladesh team can collect 51 runs in 17.5 overs but it is true that Bangladesh will lose this match today. India's innings has started they are doing very well scoring 10 runs in 1.3 overs. If the Bangladesh team can put up a good bowling performance like India, then surely they can give the visitors a competitive game.

If Pakistan could win the 2nd Sermi-Final, then we will have another India Pakistan final. No matter who win from the 2nd semi final, i think that India women team is too strong for all the other teams in the series. Also, remember that three of the four quarterfinals were washed out and only Srilanka won the Quarterfinal againist thailand women.

The 6th Match of Papua New Guinea vs Hong Kong team has already started. Hong Kong batted first and gave a target of 89 runs in 20 overs.  Now the Papua New Guinea team came out to bat. They scored 6 runs in 2.1 overs and lost 1 wicket. Tony Ura got out for 0 runs in 3 balls. Papua New Guinea team performed well in the bowling line.  If they can do well, the Papua New Guinea team will win easily.

Papua New Guinea team performed well in the bowling line.  If they can do well, the Papua New Guinea team will win easily.

Hong Kong team has shown very poor batting performance and none of the batsmen failed to play a good innings.Of course, 89 runs in a T20 match is a very low target which is very difficult to defend.However, the PNG team showed excellent bowling and all the bowlers kept the Hong Kong team under pressure and did not let them score easily.Which limited Hong Kong to smaller targets.


However, there are always upsets in cricket, there is no clue about this match either, because the PNG team has also lost five wickets for 59 runs in 11.2 overs.Needing 31 runs from 52 for PNG, it is an easy target, but if the Hong Kong team manages to pick up more wickets, it may be difficult for the PNG team,because now the match can be won only by getting the entire team out.Currently PNG team has a strong grip on the match and will win the match easily.

Oman is a good team and has the ability to chase down the 164 runs target and win the trophy of Gulf T20 Championship.

I thought that the United Arab Emirates was a better team as compared to the Oman. In the pool stage too, the United Arab Emirates topped with 8 points. But in this match, Oman remain dominant in the match. First, they did not let the UAE team run away with a lot of first innings runs.
Secondly, when they come to chase, they remain calm and do not panic anywhere in the innings. Though they lost 5 wickets but made sure that the required run rate never exceeded 8 or beyond.

Right, Oman won this match by 5 wickets against the United Arab Emirates. Oman chased down the target in 164 runs in a loss of 5 wickets in 19.2 overs. Muhammad Jawad Ullah and Zahoor Khan both UAE bowlers bowled well but did not create so much pressure both bowlers picked 2, 2 wickets. UAE batters batting well Muhammad Waseem scored 46 runs and Asif khan 38 runs but didn't get a big target for Omen. Oman batting and bowling performance is outstanding. The player of the match is Aqib ilyas for his amazing all-round performance scored 67 runs in just 33 balls and played an important role in Omam victory for his aggressive batting performance. Aqib ilyas also picked 2 Crucial wickets by giving 23 runs in 3 overs.

Oman finished the game as the WINNER and they really outplayed the UAE team today.

The Batting performance of Oman was very impressive especially Aqib ilyas who scored 67 and Ayan Khan also played very well and scored a well deserved half century of 53 runs unbeaten in just 38 balls and won match for his team. Congratulations to Oman for 5 wickets well-deserved victory against UAE.

The final will be love on Star Sports 1 and Star Sports 1 HD. You can also watch it live on Fancode. The match will start tomorrow at 4:30am IST, so for Asian viewers, the time is not that convenient. Also, Monday is a working day. This time the organizers didn't gave much attention to the Indian fans, although a large part of the revenue originates from here. Anyway, nowadays there are too many franchise T20 leagues ongoing around the world and therefore they can't get overdependent on the Indian audience as well.

In this game of Bangladesh women's team, Bangladesh performed very poorly because in terms of batting, no batsman could stay on the field for a long time. However, India defeated Bangladesh with a lot of momentum in the team. The fall of wickets from the start has left Bangladesh utterly destitute. So Bangladesh team can collect 51 runs in 17.5 overs but it is true that Bangladesh will lose this match today. India's innings has started they are doing very well scoring 10 runs in 1.3 overs. If the Bangladesh team can put up a good bowling performance like India, then surely they can give the visitors a competitive game.

Bangladesh women's team's performance against India was not good. They had to end their innings on only 51 runs. If they play against India again in final match with this performance, they will most probably lose that match. Today between Pakistan and Sri Lanka women's team, whichever team wins will have more chances to reach the final. In my perspective today's match will be more likely for Pakistan women's team to win and this team will be able to reach the final and we will be able to see a final match between India and Pakistan.

The result of this match between Bangladesh women team vs Indian team reminded me of the Asia Cup final match where the game was over before it started. If I had told that Bangladeshi girls would bat so badly against India today, I would not have seen the result of this match today. Winning and losing is a very normal thing in every match, it is normal for one team to lose and one team to win, so it is difficult to accept such a shameful defeat. While Bangladesh batted for almost 18 overs to score 51 runs and lost all wickets, India bowled just eight overs to score 52 runs with eight more wickets in hand. There is a big difference between being defeated like this and being defeated with honor.

It is not unusual for the Bangladesh women's team to lose against the India women's team. Just like the Indian men's cricket team, the women's team is very strong. However, Bangladesh women's cricket team ending the innings on 51 runs was not at all expected by the fans of Bangladesh women's cricket team. Due to such bad performance of Bangladesh Women's Cricket Team in today's match, gamblers synonymous with Bangladesh have to pay huge amount of money. Bangladesh women's team has come under criticism due to such poor performance in today's match. The performance of the opponent India Women's team in today's match was very good especially India Women's team performed very well in bowling. In today's match, India women's team defeated Bangladesh and qualified for the final match

In the other Semi final, the Pakistan women team scored only 79 runs. This was a poor display of batting by the Pakistan girls. Shawaal Zulfiqar made 16 runs and that was the highest score for the Pakistan team. Udeshika Prabodhani took 3 wickets and Kavisha Dilhari took 2 wickets, the bowlers destroyed their bating completely.

Srilanka women should easily win this semi final unless we see another batting collapse which I don't think will happen. They had already scored 24 runs and lost the wicket of their captain Chamari Athapaththu.

Semifinal  India woman vs Bangladesh woman has been completed.India woman beat Bangladesh woman to enter final and guarantee themselves of at least a silver medal. Pooja Vastrakar finished with 4 overs in 17 runs,  while Titas Sadhu, Rajeshwari Gayakwad, Amanjot Kaur and Devika Vaidya picked up a wicket each to bowl Bangladesh Women out for 51, their lowest WT20I total against India Women. In reply, India knocked down the target in 8.2 overs to enter the final and assure themselves of at least a silve medal, despite losing openers Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Varma.

Semi Final 2, Pakistan Women's Team vs Sri Lanka Women's Team. In this match, Sri Lanka Women's team won the toss and welcomed Pakistan Women's team to bat first. Pakistan Women's Cricket Team finished the first innings with 75 runs for the loss of 9 wickets after playing 20 overs. None of the Pakistan women's batsmen could score more than 16 runs. This is truly a shame for the Pakistan Women's team. In today's match, such a small score is not expected to win Pakistan. Because the Sri Lanka women's team has good, good batsmen. They can easily meet the target of 76 runs given by Pakistan. Now let's see how much margin Sri Lanka women win against Pakistan women in the second innings game

Really didn't think that this match was going to be so one sided.  I thought Pakistan women were going to give a good battle to the Sri Lankan women in this semi final. But Pakistan women were not able to get a good score. It doesn't matter which team you are playing against,  75 is never going to be a good target to defend. Or maybe it was 76 is the same thing. Women should have done better in the first innings because after they had given such a small target, there was no way they were actually going to defend that target successfully. At the same time congratulations to the Sri Lankan women. They definitely did very well in this match.

They are going to face Indian women in the final.

SL-W are now in gold medal contest with India. Poor batting from all Pakistani batters, only 3 players were able to make it to double figures. Pak-W were able to score only 75 runs in 20 overs and that was easily chased by SL-W in 17th over by losing just 4 wickets. Now Pakistan and Bangladeshi women will contest for bronze medal position.

The other semi-final between Pakistan Women and Srilankan Women will be played later today.

Semi final match of Asian Games series between Pakistan Women and Sri Lanka Women has ended. It is quite disappointing that Pakistan Women lost in today semi Final match despite their hard work to reach this match. Unfortunately, they did not perform as well as in previous matches and disqualified from the final. Sri Lanka Women won this semi final match by 6 wicket with 25 balls left. Pakistan Women set a very low target of only 75 run in 20 overs and losing 7 wickets. Batting performance was disappointing and also no player score more than 20 runs. Sri Lanka Women bowling performance was excellent in today match. U. Prabodhani took 3 wickets for them. So, good luck to Sri Lanka Women team for final match of the Asian Games series.

Interesting part of this series is that there is Mongolia Women team that played two matches. In there game against Indonesia, Mongolia women just scored 15 runs in 10 overs while in there second game against Hong Kong they scored 22 runs in 15 overs. None of there player was able to make it to double figures in both games. Lets see whether its India or SL who take gold in this category.

It's true that Pakistani women team didn't show any resistance against thier opponent team and quickly lose all of his important wickets, which is really disappointing for each and every fan because recently they have home t20 series against a tough team like south Africa but they smashed them very easily without any hesitation and we taught they will delivered same results, but I don't know what exactly happened to them at such competition, I think they can't handle pressure at such a big stage and that's why they unable to perform, 75 runs in 20 over is not enough to defend at all, they were 40 to 50 runs behind because if they scored above 110 them definitely things will be in thier hand but unfortunately they can't and lose and opportunity to the final.

Looks like inclusivity by calling teams that are terrible than school teams and we see some record breaking performance from Mongolia and there were some terrible performance from other teams as well.

India is the strongest team and Sri Lanka needs to come up with some magical performance to upset and win the gold like they did last year when their captain Chamari Athapaththu took the Indian bowlers apart and won the game for them.

What lacks needs to be identified. Maybe these countries are focusing to have maximum participation. The teams should improve, if not qualification need to be terminated. Seven players haven't scored any runs. Remaining had scored 10 runs and 5 runs have come out of extras in the match against Indonesia while chasing 187 runs.

India looks strong and it is the favourite against Sri Lanka Women team. As said something that happened in the previous Asia Games would be well remembered by the India Women team and keeps their win continue and confirm the gold for India.
