Afghanistan vs Ireland

First T20 match between Afghanistan and Ireland today Afghanistan and Ireland played ODI series and Test series earlier. In the ODI series Afghanistan defeated Ireland to win the series but in the Test series, Ireland defeated Afghanistan to win the series. The T20 series between these two teams is starting from today. Afghanistan has a majority of players who have played in various T20 franchise leagues which gives them a lot of experience. However, one batsman in the Ireland team who has been performing quite well recently is Harry Tector. Maybe today the fight between these two teams will be equal.

Today is the first T20 match between Ireland and Afghanistan which will not be a one-sided match for Afghanistan as we are thinking because before the series on tour match, the Afghanistan team lost the match where the match was a tour test Match and there they can still draw the match but their team is too bad and they were all out on 155 runs while Ireland team won that match in a very good way and easily.

Anyways, they won the series of ODI and now too have seen a lot of improvement in their team in the ODI series but now they should prepare for the T20I series at Sharjah today.

WPL: RCB vs MI (Eliminator)

RCB under huge pressure as they just lose their 3rd wicket, Perry-Richa on crease atm, and these two aren't looking comfortable playing shots either, but then again this pair is only where RCB and their fans can put their hope upon and oh BTW we are hearing RCB chants in Delhi too.

Kasat gaveaway her wicket.

Just a little later Ireland vs Afghanistan 1st t20 match is going to start but this match today I will definitely put Afghanistan ahead of Ireland because Afghanistan are doing very well in t20 format so expect them to beat Ireland very easily. But Ireland is having a fighting performance in ODI matches against Afghanistan so if Ireland batsmen and bowlers can perform very well against Afghanistan surely the game can be competitive but I think today's match is more likely for Afghanistan to win. Of course, cricket is a game of uncertainty, the team that performs well on the field will surely win. Best wishes to both teams.

Perry should do a Kohli and become the sankatmochan for the RCB and then go on to lose the match. IMO this would be the peak RCB moment. 

I have to say, RCB does have a mad fan following. Doesn't matter if it's Women's or Men's RCB. Fans always turn up for this franchise and pack the stadium.

Richa gone as well and now all hope on Perry, it's 10 overs and RCB has mere 51 runs on cards, RCB will need miracle to give competitive score from here.

Yes you are right Peshawar Zalmi didn't do well in batting during last match. When Saim Ayub got out earlier it really affected team. Saim Ayub was good in previous matches especially in beginning of match. Pitch conditions were tough which made it hard for good batters to score much runs. By the way it will be interesting to see if Peshawar Zalmi will come back and reach final to play against Multan again. So let's see.

Now, Peshawar Zalmi cannot be afford to lose. Now, there lose is not like a match to lose. If they lose the next match, it will be all over. It will be a loss of the tournament, it will be a loss of 11 matches, it is the loss of 6 victories, it will be loss of 13 points and the game where Babar Azam made a lot of fifties and one time made 111, it will be a loss of Babar's 111, 66, 51, 53, 29, 46, 0, 34, and the last 57,  but here is not only Babar's effort. It will be a loss of the whole team and to save from these danger emotions, they should be needed to win the next two matches and lift this PSL trophy.

RCB makes 135 with significant contribution from Perry of 66 runs, of course 135 not being a good total, RCB has all chances to lose this game, unless Perry does miracle with the bowl too and becomes savior there as well.

Peshawar Zalmi can play the final and the hopes are still alive for them. They can take revenge on Multan Sultans of yesterday's semi final match. The winner of today's match will be decided in few hours from now but after that match the team who won today's match still have to face many difficulties such as they have to meet with Peshawar Zalmi tomorrow at Karachi and today's match will be played between Islamabad United and Quetta Gladiators.

Babar Azam and Saim Ayub always played well against Quetta Gladiators in this PSL and on the other side, here is Islamabad United and against them Babar Azam hit a century but one time he was also out on zero by them but that was run out.

The news from the match centre is that Islamabad United have won the toss and they will put the runs on the board in this eliminator match. High hopes from Martin Guptill and Alex Hales to give a good start to the Islamabad's team.

The match is underway. Afghanistan won the toss and decided to bowl first and its not a surprising. In UAE, any team that won the toss decide to bowl first to take advantage of dew that comes down at later part of the game. In UAE, the team winning the toss also wins the match. Ireland so far have a good start of the game as they have scored 19 runs in first 2 overs without losing any wicket.

The match is in progress.  Afghanistan won the toss and decided to bowl first.  Afghanistan's decision to bowl first could make or break their win. Ireland have scored 66 now in 11 overs . Afghanistan team bowlers playing very well they have taken five wickets of  Ireland so far which is why Ireland's best men are still under full pressure.  There is no hope that the Island team will be able to score more than a hundred runs.

What a thriller going on at the moment between MI and RCB. GOAT Perry helped RCB pile on a decent target while the rest excluding Wareham played like crap. On the other hand, MI players are getting good starts, but are failing to convert.

It all comes down to the final over. Exciting stuff. Also, one of the 3rd umpires weirdly sounds like Sachin. Hilarious!

Edit: Go Asha! What an awesome final over. She was actually kinda predictable, but the MI players didn't play smartly. Excited for DC vs RCB!

A close play off eliminator for MI women and RCB women in the WPL. The two teams were equally good throughout the tournament and their elimination match turned out to be exciting till the last ball. RCB batting first created a medium target of 136 for MI team. As always, Ellyse Perry leading the run scoring for RCB, 66 on her board. All other batswomen performed poor from RCB. MI was supposed to achieve the target with ease.

At the end of 17th over, they needed just 20 runs from 18 balls with 7 wickets remaining. Which is an easy win scenario in a T20. But the susequent bowling of Shreyanka Patil and Sophie Molineux, they lost three wickets on those 18 balls and made only 14 runs.
A deserving win for RCB specially for Ellyse Perry.

[libert19]

What the heck? How could MI lose the game, throughout it looked like they will win the game easy and in the end they fucked up so bad. Although, I'm happy for RCB, this was such a bad play from MI, and I'm not sure what exactly was bad play either.

Yes AirtelBuzz buddy I watched out all previous competition matches which was finished among these squads Ireland and Afghanistan sqaud and both these squads fight in different campaigns Test and ODI competitions and these matches was quite interesting. Both squads displayed equally performance. Now, T20 competition has begun among these sqauds and first match is ongoing on crease and Ireland squad has completed their first batting and collected target is 149 scores which seem a normal defeating target. Harry Tector you mentioned batter in your post only this batter displayed impressive performance and achieved highest scores. Now let's see Afghanistan squad will defeat this target or not.

Ireland batters batting well and scored 149 runs in loss of 6 Wickets in first innings of the Match against Afghanistan. Ireland batter didn't played well but Harry Tector played an important innings of 56 runs unbeaten from just 34 balls and helped Ireland to reached a good total. From Afghanistan Rashid Khan bowling well picked 3 crucial wickets by just giving 19 runs in his bowling spell and restrict Ireland to under 150. I think its a chasebale target if Afghanistan didn't lose early wickets.

Afghanistan vs Ireland

Well Afghanistan has delivered quite worst performance especially against sirilankan team at thier home ground series and then against Scotland too but the main things is that most of thier player around or below 25 and such mistakes will give them experience to survive well in future cricket also franchise cricket help them alot to share dressing room with experience talented players and grow thier talent. Anyway it's first match where Ireland scored 149 which is fair target to chased down with contribution of thier quality batters but unfortunately thier main key player gurbaz whose always set momentum for this team at early stage got dismissed at first time but I am sure rest of thier player will manage situation and will chased down required target without any hesitation otherwise things will be more difficult form them in upcoming T20 World

Afghanistan's batsmen are under a lot of pressure after losing 3 wickets in the beginning to bat against the target of 150 runs given by Ireland. If Mohammad Ishaq and Ibrahim Zadran can bat responsibly, Afghanistan can win the match against Ireland. Ireland's bowlers have done very well against Afghanistan putting pressure on Afghanistan's batsmen from the start, if they can bowl like this then Ireland can win against Afghanistan.

Islamabad United team players are performing so well that victory is assured. Because the batting at the beginning has performed well as Martin Guptill entered the field as the opening batsman. He performed best and in terms of bowling Imad wasim collected 3 wickets alone. Quetta Gladiator team players are not patient as all the batsmen were out in a short time.

Islamabad United won the toss and decided to bat first. Islamabad United openers got off to a great start scoring 174 runs in the allotted 20 overs.Quetta Gladiators batsmen are under a lot of pressure losing wickets one after another. Omair Yousuf scored the highest runs for Quetta Gladiators. 50 runs out of 37 balls. Islamabad United performed very well against Quetta Gladiators. Due to which Islamabad United saved to reach the semi-finals after losing by 39 runs. Congratulations to the Islamabad United team for the win.

Congratulations Islamabad United team for this brilliant win in 1 st Eliminator game and I disappointed the effort of Quetta Gladiator team which was showed in this game and they was failed to chase down big runs target. Islamabad United team set 179 runs target in 20 overs by losing 9 wickets. I.Wasim won a player of game award because his bowling effort was outstanding and he took down 3 wickets in 4 overs with 12 runs. N.Shah also took down 2 wickets with 33 runs in 4 overs. Quetta Gladiator team only chased 135 runs entire team was dismantled and only 9 balls left. O.Yousaf performed well and he scored 50 runs in 37 balls with four 4s and one 6s. From Islamabad United batting lineup side, opener batsman M.Guptil scored 56 runs in 47 runs and I believe Islamabad United team showed same effort in upcoming games like in 2 nd eliminator game.
