T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Bitcoin_people]

The New Zealand team scored 194 runs in the first innings with the loss of 8 wickets. Pakistan team lost the first match in New Zealand field it is difficult to say whether they can win today's match but if Faqar Zaman was not out then it might have been possible to win the match. It will be very difficult for Pakistan to win the match today as they are currently under a lot of pressure even though they have lost important wickets. If Babar Azam can survive then maybe there will be some chance to win the match and if he gets out then Pakistan team will lose the second T20 match today. Pakistan still has a long way to go to win, scoring 71 runs off 35 balls is not an easy task, only possible if they can bat well. Pakistan team though is still under a lot of pressure as they have lost all their important wickets so today's match is more likely to be won by New Zealand and the result of 5th T20 series can be 2-0.

[Unknown Op]

Today is the second T20 match between Pakistan and New Zealand in which New Zealand scored 194 runs in first betting and Pakistan team is now playing second betting. The team of Pakistan scored 97 runs in 10 overs and 3 players are out. Fakhar zaman is now out on the scored of 50.  Babar Azam has 38 runs if he play well then there is a chance that Pakistan will win the match. Now it is important for Pakistan to play with care to win this match and Babar Azam and Iftekhar Ahmad should continue their partnership to make the match better.

This second match of this competition is playing on crease fighting with Pakistan squad against New Zealand squad. I am not seeing any hope that Pakistan squad emerge victory in this current match against New Zealand squad considering their batting inning performance, their all betters are wiped out for around 150 scores only 4 batter remaining for play. I believe that Sami Ayyub performance in this match would be fantastic but he got out after collecting only 1 score. Next Muhammad Rizwan batter performance also very bad only collect 7nsvorew then he got out. Babar Azam performance was very impressive and they still not out from crease and he also achieved mid century but on other side, there is not good batter who can play with Babar Azam and defend this 194 scores target. Remaining 59 scores for defend in 24 deliveries to emerge victory and now let's see at last delivery of this match.

In second game, Pakistan won the toss and first decided bowling. New Zealand batsman makes 3 run in 1 over and Pakistan no any wicket against new Zealand batsman. This is the good started for new Zealand batsman. Pakistan bowler out the new Zealand batsman in the first ball of the 6 over. This is the first achievement for Pakistan. New Zealand batsman makes 111 in 10 over and 1 out. New Zealand batsman could effort and struggle and make run. New Zealand batsman makes 194 run in 20 over and 8 outs. This is the target for Pakistan batsman. This is the good and hard target for Pakistan batsman. Now let's see Pakistan batsman can complete this target or not.Pakistan batsman could not worked hard and struggle and can not make runs.

Pakistan is so much dependent on Babar Azam can be seen again today. He got out and whole batting line-up collapsed again. The captain tried to rescue by quickly getting 22 runs but that won't help them. New Zealand now need to win another match to win the series. Again batting is a big concern for Pakistan. Rizwan again not able get runs in that position.

That's true Babar Azam continuously depending whole Pakistan team with his hand. But it can be also a weak point of a team like today what is happened it all the opponent will focus on only one player today New Zealand did that after fallout of Babar Azam Pakistan whole batting line up destroyed. But I will say that today the bowling side of Pakistan improve little bit but they need more improvement for fighting against New Zealand batting line up.

New Zealand won the 2nd T20I against Pakistan by 21 runs. A very good effort from the New Zealand bowlers to restrict Pakistan's batting lineup to 173 runs. Tim Southee was spot-on with his bowling change. New Zealand bowlers bowled in good channels. Winning the toss and choosing to bowl first was a bad decision, especially after the 1st T20I performance. Not introducing Iftikhar for a couple of overs was another big blunder. I think they should change the batting positions of Iftikhar and Azam Khan. Good to see Babar scoring some runs; this will boost his confidence level.

New Zealand team won today by 21 runs. Pakistan team batsman Babar Azam batted well today but the rest of Pakistan team's batting performance was very bad. Pakistan team's player Shaheen Afridi did not take any wicket today. But Haris Rauf got 3 wickets. New Zealand team batsman Finn  Allen made it very easy to win the match by scoring 74 runs off 41 balls. Adam Milne of New Zealand team took 4 wickets with 33 runs off 4 overs.

Here I will blame Pakistani selectors which done poor job and fail to bring a better team their bowlers are not good enough with having Aamir Jamal and Haris Rauf making no sense which costing badly team after worst bowling their batsmen are also failed to give any support which is another dilemma for the team Just Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman done reasonable batting, but this was not enough to give them success.

Now after going down by 2–0 most chances we will have comeback from them even I have no positive feeling from them in these conditions but still they have history of doing better performance with losing series before world cup is surely going to be negative on their confidence.

Another game of Pakistan and the same outcome. What I didn't understand is that Pakistan choose to bowl first after winning the toss. Why were they so confident in their ability to chase runs. The first match their batting collapsed in the similar way as today. Today the bowlers did a good job to restrict the Kiwis from not getting 200 runs but that didn't help them as 195 runs is still considered a good target in T20. Three more matches left for the series to end, New Zealand needs another win to win the series. Pakistan need to will all its matches to win the series to which I am doubtful.

Zimbabwe VS   Sri Lanka 1st T-20

Zimbabwe vs Sri Lanka Siraj's ODI series ends. We saw Zimbabwe win the ODI series 2-0. But due to rain, I could not enjoy the matches well.

However, the T20 series starts today. Zimbabwe could not perform well in the ODI format. Zimbabwe is stronger in T20 format than ODI format. Today is the T20 match so it is expected that the Zimbabwean players will perform well.

However, Sri Lanka is much stronger than Zimbabwe in the T20 format. Sri Lanka's batting and bowling line is much better than Zimbabwe. The match will be at Sri Lanka's home ground so Sri Lanka will get more support. I think Sri Lanka have more chances to win this match today. What do you think, which team can win?

For Pakistan, the weaknesses remain as such. They don't have a quality spinner. They have Usama Mir, but then he is not exactly world class. The pacers managed to pick wickets, but they were expensive. But for a change, Haris Rauf and Abbas Afridi bowled well in this match. However, they lost the match as a result of poor performance from the batsmen. Fakhar Zaman and Babar Azam put up a third wicket stand of 87 runs, but after Fakhar got out, Pakistani batting collapsed. Shaheen Shah Afridi was the only other batsman to score double digits.

Usama Mir is ordinary in T20Is for Pakistan, and he is inconsistent with his line and length. Another spin option is Iftikhar, he did not bowl in the last two matches. Yes, pacers are taking wickets, but at what cost? Rauf picked up 3 wickets in the last over of his spell (19th over). What about the middle overs? Pakistan is losing the match in the middle phase of the matches. 
Pakistan's batting is collapsing, as usual, only Babar is consistently performing for them. I think they should stop giving chances to the debutants now and focus on the existing options for bowling (Wasim Jr. and Zaman) and batting (Haris) to prepare better for the upcoming T20 World Cup.

Exactly they lack class spinners as they had in the past and pacers are very inconsistent. Rizwas should be brought back to his old batting order he is a failure in his present order. His presence in the lower order will give some cushion to struggling batting of Pakistan. Babar dependency still prevails and the whole team looks forward to him to get atleast half the required target. For a change Fakar has been consistent in this series not sure about the future. Afridi is not a batter he is known bowler but his commitment was excellent with the bat except his bowling. He has not been the same after his injury and that is concerning.

The pitch was batting friendly. So it is only natural that batsmen will get extra advantage and give high targets on this pitch. And I would say that a target of 195 is possible to win on this pitch if the batsmen can bat with some responsibility.
Pakistan batsmen's performance was very poor today. Both openers cannot bat well. While Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman batted well, none of the latter batsmen could bat responsibly. Apart from Babar, Fakhar Zaman and Shaheen Shah Afridi, no other batsman could score double digit runs. Pakistan will not be able to win even a single match of the series against New Zealand if they perform such a bad and erratic performance.

[GigaBit]

Today is the second T20 match between Pakistan and New Zealand in which New Zealand scored 194 runs in first betting and Pakistan team is now playing second betting. The team of Pakistan scored 97 runs in 10 overs and 3 players are out. Fakhar zaman is now out on the scored of 50.  Babar Azam has 38 runs if he play well then there is a chance that Pakistan will win the match. Now it is important for Pakistan to play with care to win this match and Babar Azam and Iftekhar Ahmad should continue their partnership to make the match better.

They could not chase down the target of 226 runs in the first match and they also could not chase down 194 runs in today's match. I think their batting failure was the main reason for the loss. Two top order batsmen were defeated in today's match. However When a batsman like Mohammad Rizwan fails to score, it is not too late to guess that Pakistan will lose. But a good innings by Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman gave hope for the match. But after their fall no one else could keep importance in the match. All but 3 players returned with single digit scores. 5 match series losing 2 match in a row. If Pakistan can't win the next match then this series will be lost. From now Pakistan will have no option to win every match.

2 nd T20 game in between New Zealand team vs Pakistan team was concluded already and a few mins ago. Pakistan team first won the toss with opponent team New Zealand and got chance for bat or bowl and Pakistan team chose bowl first. New Zealand team effort in this game was outstanding and they beat Pakistan team bowler very badly. New Zealand team scored 194 runs in 20 overs by losing 8 wickets and this target was good. F.Allen batsman scored 74 runs in 41 balls with seven 4s and five 6s, U.Mir dismissed F.Allen. F.Allen also credited with Player of game award due to their outstanding effort in today game. A.Mlen also took down 4 batsman in 4 overs with 33 runs. B.Azam tried hard to chase down target but failed and Pakistan team scored only 173 runs in 19.3 overs by losing all player and lost this game.

India  vs  Afghanistan

India won the toss and decided to field against Afghanistan. In the first match as well, India got an excellent victory by fielding first. India easily won the target of 159 runs given by Afghanistan. India's chances of victory are high in today's match as well.

Virat Kohli was not in the squad for the first match. Virat Kohli has been added to the squad as a replacement for Tilak Verma in today's match. It is expected that India will not face any problem to win today's match as well. Indian batsmen are in very good form now. Also Afghanistan's best bowler Rashid Khan is not in the squad. Afghanistan's bowling attack would have been stronger if Rashid Khan was in the squad.

[libert19]

India v Afghanistan: India won the toss, and decided to bowl first. Few changes in squad, one I liked is Tilak verma is finally out, he has been given plenty chances since T20 series against Aussies just after world cup but kept performing poorly, he made one fifty in between tho iirc but it's not enough imo. Jaiswal is in today and they will be openers of India. Gill also out, nothing to say on that.

It's ok to me if India loses today, will keep series alive until 3rd game, otherwise there is no charm left to watch last game

2 nd T20 game in between New Zealand team vs Pakistan team was concluded already and a few mins ago. Pakistan team first won the toss with opponent team New Zealand and got chance for bat or bowl and Pakistan team chose bowl first. New Zealand team effort in this game was outstanding and they beat Pakistan team bowler very badly. New Zealand team scored 194 runs in 20 overs by losing 8 wickets and this target was good. F.Allen batsman scored 74 runs in 41 balls with seven 4s and five 6s, U.Mir dismissed F.Allen. F.Allen also credited with Player of game award due to their outstanding effort in today game. A.Mlen also took down 4 batsman in 4 overs with 33 runs. B.Azam tried hard to chase down target but failed and Pakistan team scored only 173 runs in 19.3 overs by losing all player and lost this game.

The match situation was done when Abbas Afridi came to the hattrick ball because after that the other Pakistani bowlers were impressed with him and they also wanted to do this and they did, but he went to the hat rick ball so he could not do hattrick but after the next to next ball he afford a six and next ball to the six he afford a four so all thing was clear and New Zealand team didn't think that we are under-pressure but on the next over Haris Rauf see them his bowling. Pakistan team played well in this innings.

But in the later part of the 2nd innings, they fail to bat well and were unable to chase this target which they should have. Baber Azam made 66 runs while Fakhar Zaman made 50 runs but after that none of the Pakistan batsmen was able to score anything and once again it was a batting failure from the Pakistan team end.

Pakistan team won the toss and decided to bowl only for the target. But the New Zealand team batted brilliantly and played really brilliantly as a result of which they were able to score 193 runs for the loss of 8 wickets. New Zealand team won the 2nd T20 match due to improvement in their bowling and batting performance. New Zealand team gave the best batting performance as Finn Allen was able to score more runs for him. We have seen that in the first T20 match too, Finn Allen had excellent chatting due to which the New Zealand team was able to win the match. However, the Pakistan team came into the field to chase down the target of 195 runs, losing wickets at the start which put them under pressure. Although Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman all the other players did not bat very well, if any one player could have batted well then it would not have been possible for Pakistan team to achieve today. If Pakistan team had not lost all the wickets then today if they could have put in a good batting performance in the last minute the match would have been theirs but unfortunately they lost by 173 runs losing all the wickets.
