T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[JSRAW]

According to the performances of Australia in today's match, I can't believe that this team is the winner of the ODI World Cup 2023,

No need to get too excited, it's just a bilateral series that is considered a testing ground for new talent and at the same, it's audition time for IPL and T-20 WC.

Fans shouldn't read much into it and just enjoy Batriarchy moments with the mix of some exciting young talent.

T20 is more about entertainment and today we saw another entertaining game for the hosts. Top 3 batsmen of India clicked today and that's the reason they gave a huge target of 236 runs after losing only 4 wickets. SKY was not able to play a big innings today and that's fine since top 3 have done the job for everyone.

I wonder if @noor even watched the World Cup properly since the both of these teams are drastically different from the ones that played in that tournament. Australia is doing a pretty good job in India's backyard so far.

Also, what the heck does Batriarchy mean since I have only heard of patriarchy?

Uganda vs Zimbabwe

African region qualifier match is started between Zim and Uganda. Zimbabwe are old team; played many international matches series and tournament with top 10 international teams and Uganda is new team.. Today Uganda is right on top; Uganda bowled pretty well; Zimbabwe only able to score 136 with 7 wickets loss..

Wao what a surprising and shocking results because out of no where Uganda has managed to won an important match against one of strong side in his opponents named Zimbabwe, but let be honest Zimbabwean team totally dependent on single man and it's like impossible for any player to perform more than his best and won each and every match, entire team has to add his contribution them thier team will be victorious. So Zimbabwe done bat first and with some decent contribution of Sikander they scored 137 which is quite low but while target defending some of thier bowlers were completely out of colour and such bad performance allow thier opponent to settle down build some significant partnership and thus due to participate if middle order they chased down required target before last ball with still 5 wickets in hand which is definitely a remarkable performance.

It is kind of do or die. Even if Stoinis and Tim David have stood on the pitch for few more overs, the match could've changed. T20 can't be considered as the right format of cricket. As said it is kind of entertainment, and it is evident through different T20 leagues happening around the world. Nowadays quite often we can see scores around 220 in those leagues and the same gets reached on chasing. The same team suffers to score the same runs in ODI.

India set a target of 235 runs in loss of 4 wickets in 20 overs. Top 3 bastmen scored fifty runs Yashasvi Jaiswal scored 53 runs in just 25 balls, Ruturaj Gaikwad also scored 58 runs in 43 balls and ishan Kishan batting performance is outstanding scored 52 runs in just 32 balls. Rinku singh also batting well at last scored 31 runs in just 9 balls with help of 4 fours and 2 sixs and reached the india total to 230 runs plus against Australia. From Australia Nathan Ellis bowl well picked 3 important wicktes by giving 45 runs in 4 overs. Australia current score is 47 runs in loss of wickets in 5 over they needed 189 runs in 90 balls to win this match.

A target of 235 runs is a big target in T20 and it will not be easy to achieve. Such a big target often benefits the bowlers and the batsmen are under pressure to play big short from the start. Openers can suffer when a high run rate is required. Australia's opening batsmen were soon out due to the this pressure.

Glenn Maxwell getting out I think is a big loss for the Australian team,  because in the T20 format, he is a player who, if he stays at the crease even for a few overs, can cause problems for the opposing team.However, now Smith's wicket has also fallen on 58 runs, which definitely seems to be Australia's defeat. Now Australia need 173 runs from 73 balls and this is very tough target I think India will win this match easily.

More 10 overs left and Australia need another 132 runs with 6 wickets remaining during the drinks break. Stoinis 22*(12) and David 22*(11) in good form building partnership could pressure the Indian bowlers. For now India is on the winning side, yet we can't be conclusive as T20 matches can turn at any point. It looks like India T20 team is performing better after the World Cup loss.

India won by 44 runs against Austria in 2nd T20 and lead the series by 2-0. Australia all out in jsut 191 runs in 20 overs. From Australia Marcus Stoinis played a well inning of 45 runs in 25 balls just missed his fifty by 5 runs short and Matthew Wade scored unbeaten 42 runs in 23 balls but failed to chase down the target. India bowlers performance is amazing especially Ravi Bishnoi picked 3 wickets by giving 32 runs and Prasidh Krishna alo picked 3 important wicktes by giving 41 runs in 4 overs.The player of the match is Yashasvi Jaiswal for his outstanding batting performance 53 runs in just 25 balls ans scored big target 234 runs for Australia.

If Australia could have stopped India before 200 runs then Australia would have had a chance to win. But in yesterday's match, Australia won the toss and decided to bowl, maybe it was a wrong decision to bowl after winning the toss, they should have chosen to bat after winning the toss. However, Australia could not keep India under pressure by bowling first. Both India's opening batsmen have batted brilliantly, Ishan Kishan has batted very well. Especially in yesterday's match all the Indian batsmen played very well as a result of which India managed to score 235 runs. A huge target of 236 runs put Australia under a lot of pressure from the start. Australia top order batsmen could not do well due to which Australia lost. Matthew Wade, Tim David, Marcus Stoinis played very well but could not lead the team to the target of victory.

In the second T20I, everyone did well, including India's opening pair, especially towards the end with Rinku Singh's rampage and the team was able to score 235 runs based on 31 balls. It goes without saying that India has performed better than Australia in T20. However, T20 matches have become so entertaining that if one team scores 200 runs, the other team either wins by targeting that run or is defeated by a few runs. There is no shortage of four sixes in the T20 between Australia and India.

The batsmen of the Indian team performed well from the beginning, but meanwhile the batsmen of the Australian team did not make a good start. But due to the fall of more wickets of Australia team they lost even though India team gave a target of 236 runs to Australia team so I think this   will be difficult for Australia team. India won both the first T20I and the second T20I, despite having experienced players in the Australian team, they could not hold on to the game, losing more wickets to the Indian bowling.

T20 matches are much more entertaining when tough opponents fight against tough opponents. India is a very strong team in T20 but if there is a team like Sri Lanka or Zimbabwe on the opposite side then the game will not be entertaining at all. We can call the match between Australia and India as an even match, although Australia has lost the first two matches and is far behind in this series, but we must not forget that Australia can come back to this series at any time. Maybe India wins the first 2 matches, then it will be seen that Australia wins the last three matches, so anything can happen here. Not only are Indian young cricketers not appreciated, Indian fans really have no complaints against any player as each player has won the hearts of the fans.

Australia current score is 47 runs in loss of wickets in 5 over they needed 189 runs in 90 balls to win this match.

In the first match Australia took the first turn and just showed its power and made 208 runs in 20 overs.
After that in the second match which played yesterday India took the first turn and showed its power and set a huge target for Australia team. That was 236 runs.
As usual I was thinking that Ishan Kishan played good he made 52 runs and hit 4 sixes and 3 fours. Yashasvi Jaiswal was also good in this inning and he is the player of the match too. He made 53 runs on 25 balls. By the way that was a huge target.

On the other hand Josh Inglie wasn't lucky in the this match and made only 2 runs. Marcus Stoinis was good in this match and Methew Made (Captain) was also good. And he remained not out and made 42 runs on 23 balls and hit 4 sixes. He is the wicket keeper too. By the way Australia tried really well but unfortunately they made only 191 runs with the lost of 9 wickets.

And now in 5 T20I matches series India has won 2 matches. So now the series is at 2-0. And the next match they will play tomorrow on 28 November 2023.

In the second innings game, the Australian cricket team's batting started with disappointment. Australia cricket team lost three wickets in the beginning of the game. Under the influence of Indian cricket team's bowlers, Australian cricket team's batsmen are panicking. The strong bowling of the Indian cricket team has made it impossible to control the Australian batsmen. Now if the batsmen of the Australian team fail to deal with the bowling of the Indian team bowlers. Then it is safe to say that the Australian team will lose in today's match. The way the Australian team batsmen are playing seems like I am going to lose today's bet. If the Australian cricket team does not win this match. Australia fans will suffer a lot.

In second game of ICC series, Australia won toss from India team and then chose fielding on pitch and this was not good choice to decide bowl first. Opener batsman of India team was performed very well and scored a good runs in today game. First batsman J.Jaiswal scored 53 runs in 25 balls and he hitted nine 4s and two 6s and dismissed by N.Ellis. Second batter R.Gaikwad batsman scored 58 runs in 43 balls with three 4s and two 6s. Third batsman I.Kishan scored 52 runs in 32 balls and he hitted four 4s and three 6s. P.Krishna and R.Bishoni bowler of Indian team each took down three wickets. Australia team was lose this game by 44 runs and they chased down only 191 runs in 20 overs by losing 9 wickets.

Well, i think that 235 target was always on the high side and it would have been difficult for the Australian team to chase this score. However, i still believe that they did a reasonably good job making 191 runs in the end.
The top order batsmen failed to make big scores but in the middle order Marcus Stoinis, Tim David and Matthew Wade made 40 odds runs each but none of them could convert it into 50-60 runs and that could have made the difference.

With India winning the first two matches of the series, Australia now have no choice but to keep on winning the last three T20 in order to save and win the T20 series. Although it will be difficult for the Indians to save the series from here but nothing is impossible in the world of cricket.

Indian batting destroyed Aussies in second T20i as well. Surya and Kishan both got out on playing balls that should have been left alone.

Gaikwad despite making a fifty, didn't appear confident on crease.

In the second T20 match yesterday, three batsmen in the top order scored consecutive half-centuries. Although Ruturaj Gaikwad bowled more balls to complete his half-century, Rinku Singh reversed his bowling equation. In yesterday's match, although Australia had a great performance towards the end, their top order batsmen failed and Australia lost the match by 44 runs.

India beat Australia in all three formats of the match. Like in fielding , if you see the catches taken by Yahswasvi Jiaswal, he took two very good catches. He batted well as well and seems to be solid material for captaincy.

In batting, India was obviously batter, with all batsmen performing good while in Australia , only two batters did well. Bowling aspect, spinners in India performed best while Zampa was struggling a lot.

Lol, yesterday I saw a video where Gautam Gambhir was talking about how we start talking about giving captaincy to player who performs well. You can check here [1].

Guy is 21 years old, let him play with veterans first. Moreover, if player performs well, it doesn't equal to being a good captain. Leadership is different thing altogether.

Even if SKY or Ishan Kishan gets out, they get the required runs for the team and then get out. If Ruturaj Gaikwad wasn't confident then he wouldn't have scored 50 plus runs may say his strike rate was a little lower than other players but he scored fifty plus runs was definitely a must collect for the team. Ruturaj Gaikwad is the opening batsman, India would have been under a lot of pressure if he had got out early but he held on and scored runs which is why India ended up with 230 plus. But towards the end, Rinku Singh's batting impressed me, perhaps in 16 to 20 overs, Rinku Singh's strike rate is above 200, that is, if he bowls 20 balls in 16 to 20 overs, he scores 40 runs in those 20 balls. Rinku Singh will be a reliable batsman for India T20 team and I am sure he will be a regular in the XI.

LOL.. the ICC has gone ballistic, after learning that Zimbabwe may not qualify for the T20I World Cup to be held in West Indies and United States next year. So far Zimbabwe has played 3 matches, and they won only one match (against Tanzania). In the very first match, they suffered a heavy defeat against Namibia and in the third match they went down against Uganda. Even if they win all the remaining matches, they are not guaranteed of a slot in the world cup. Namibia is almost confirmed of a slot, while Uganda and Kenya are in hot pursuit for the second slot.

In yesterday's second T20 match, a remarkable display was disclosed as three top-order batsmen achieved consecutive half-centuries. Ruturaj Gaikwad's innings stood out as he faced more deliveries to reach his fifty, showcasing resilience at the crease. On the other hand, Rinku Singh displayed versatility by reversing his usual batting role and contributing with the ball.

Despite Australia's strong performance in the latter part of the match, their top-order batsmen struggled, ultimately leading to a 44-run defeat.

Gambhir is an absolute weirdo based on what I observed since he says a lot of crazy stuff sometimes without thinking twice. If anyone should be given captaincy, it should be someone like Bumrah, Rahul etc.

Wonder when Rohit will give up his captaincy since he clearly isn't ready to let go of it easily in any league(Ex: Hardik Pandya).
