T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Swordsoffreedom]

Afghanistan vs Ireland, 3rd T20I is going on. And is about to lose the match. They need Ireland need 63 runs in 23 balls where they are standing at 93-8 position. Today Afghanistan played well and made good amount of runs which is 155 runs where Ibrahim Zadran made 72 runs from  51balls. Total runs wasn't that much higher to make but today Ireland facing touble cause they lost so many wickets in earlier. Gareth Delany, Curtis Campher, Harry Tector made some runs but don't think they could win today

Afghanistan team brilliant performance in thus game batting first scored 155/7. Ireland failed to chase the target even with Curtis Campher 28-run and Harey Tector innings but the Ireland team All Out in just 98 scores in the 18th over of the game. Ibrahim Zadran was the top scorer of the match by playing an aggressive innings of 72 runs unbeaten and won the series.

The target was not big. But the performance of Ireland's batsmen is very erratic. With the help of Ibarahim Zadran's innings of 72 runs from 51 balls, Afghanistan team collected 155 runs. I would not say that Ireland's bowlers bowled badly. The performance of the bowlers was quite good. Interestingly, each of Ireland's bowlers took one wicket.

I was very disappointed with the performance of Ireland's batsmen.

• Andy Balbirnie    - 09
• Paul Stirling (c)   - 4

• Lorcan Tucker      - 0
• Harry Tector       - 16

• George Dockrell  - 03

Each of these batsmen is quite experienced and talented. But none played well. They have the ability to play big innings. But their main problem is that no batsman's performance is regular. I would say the players need to be more confident. Otherwise, consistent good performance is not possible.

The first T20 match of the New Zealand Women vs England Women series took place today. The tour will consist of 5 T20 matches and 3 ODI matches.

The performance of the New Zealand women's team has been very erratic. In the last two series against Pakistan Women's team and South Africa Women's team we also saw erratic performance of New Zealand Women's team. New Zealand's players did not perform well against the England women's team either.

England Women's team batted first and set a target of 161 runs. Captain Heather Knight played an excellent innings of 63 off 39 balls. Even though England Women were given a target of 161 runs, I thought the match would be competitive. But the match was completely one-sided. The batsmen of the New Zealand women's team have been batting very slowly since the beginning of the match. And in the end, New Zealand women's team collected 133 runs losing 5 wickets. The New Zealand team was defeated by 27 runs.

Ibrahim Zadran was the top scorer of the match by playing an aggressive innings of 72 runs unbeaten and won the series.

Afghanistan were beaten by Ireland in the first T20 match but we had faith in Afghanistan that Afghanistan would surely turn around. Afghanistan came out strong against Ireland in the second T20I and secured a big win by 57 runs against Ireland in the second T20I. If Afghanistan scored 155 runs in the first innings, Ireland managed to score only 98 runs in the second innings. After scoring 98 runs in 17 overs, Afghanistan secured an easy victory by 57 runs in the second T20 match. Ireland and Afghanistan won the first two matches of the three-match T20 series so the series is still level and the third match will decide which team will win the series.

Afghanistan team has already won the third T20 match to clinch the series against Ireland. In the third T20 match, Afghanistan batted first and scored 155 runs for 7 wickets. Ibrahim Zadran scored the most runs in this match for the Afghanistan team who was not out with 72 runs, mainly because of his batting Afghanistan managed to collect 155 runs. Batting against the target of 156 runs given by Afghanistan, the batsmen of the Ireland team were in a batting disaster throughout the match. Ireland were bowled out for just 98 runs as a result of which Afghanistan won the match by 57 runs and clinched the T20I series.

Ireland lost the third and the final T20 match at Sharjah. There were some expectations that perhaps the Ireland team may win the match and the series but this did not happen. Ireland team failed the expectation, and they faced a very bad defeat against the Afghanistan team.

Afghanistan team made 155 runs and it was a reasonable target. Ibrahim Zadran who was the match of the match also, make 72 runs in 51 balls and change the game in the favour of his team. In the bowling department Azmatullah Omarzai and Naveen-ul-Haq took 4 and 3 wickets each and made sure their team win the series.

Ireland team failed to have a good batting start and they lost their first three batsmen including Andy Balbirnie , Paul Stirling and Lorcan Tucker only at 15 runs. None of the batsmen could stay on the wicket for long and all the Ireland team were out at less than 100 runs.

Let's Afghanistan finally maintain their standards. After watching the first match in this T20 series, I thought that Afghanistan will not win this series. Because their performance in the first match was very bad, the batting line performed very badly. However, in the last match, they batted fairly well, but in terms of bowling, they performed outstandingly, especially Azmatullah Omarzai's four-wicket haul and Naveen-ul-Haq's three-wicket haul gave Afghanistan a lead.

PSL final, highlights for me:

Iftikar's firecrackers in last couple overs that took Multan's to a good total, his excellent catch of Munro.

The mix-up between Azam Khan and Guptil that cost Guptil his wicket, it was Guptil's fault, and from his reaction it appeared he owned it up, he must have realized it later it was Azam Khan on other side and he may not able to run that fast, lol. BTW, Azam Khan's straight six just couple balls before Guptil's run out was beauty.

You missed the real entertainer of yesterday game which is Imad Wasim who took 5 wickets and was also declared man of the match. It was because of Imad Wasim extraordinary bowling that Sultan's were not able to give a big target. Muhammad Rizwan got second chance after was bowled out by Hunain shah on no ball but despite getting second chance Rizwan was able to score 26 runs and took 26 balls for that.

Imad Wasim won the match for his team. Multan Sultans were restricted to just 159/9, which was never going to be enough at the Karachi National Stadium. Shadab Khan also played his part with 3 crucial wickets. And apart from Usman Khan and Iftikhar Ahmed, no one really contributed for the Multan Sultans. A lot was expected from Mohammad Rizwan, but he was disappointing. Wasted a lot of balls and then got out. And in return, Islamabad United was very clinical.  The Kiwi duo of Martin Guptill and Colin Munro gave them a good start, before taken over by Azam Khan and Imad Wasim.

Although the Afghanistan team was not very good in the beginning and their performance was a disappointment. But they showed a great performance in the third T20 match and it was enough for them to win the series. Although I think the most substantial improvement in the bowling line has been the fact that the Afghanistan team has easily handled Ireland and Ireland have lost. The duo bowled brilliantly as the duo managed to take a total of seven wickets which sealed the win for Afghanistan. However, Afghanistan team scored very well in today's match even though Ireland had a very tough going so far. However, despite trying hard, Ireland could not cope with Afghanistan but their game improved due to which Ireland put up a poor batting performance and lost the match.

I also think Afghanistan team did really well in third T20 match. They got better at bowling which was good to see. They played well against Ireland and won series. Two players took seven wickets which really helped Afghanistan to win. Ireland had tough time in this match. The Afghanistan team worked hard and improved much which helped them. It is nice to see Afghanistan's cricket team doing well internationally.

Afghanistan does not compare to Ireland. It is a common prediction that Afghanistan will play well against Ireland.  Which is being implemented. Fortunately Ireland managed to win the 1st match and in the 2nd match they played well but could not win the match. But Ireland played very badly in the 3rd match. While Afghanistan had given them a target of 155 runs, Ireland could not even cross 100 runs.  Such a good bowling performance by Afghanistan is highly commendable.  Such a good bowling performance of theirs was able to bowl out all the wickets of Ireland by many huge runs margin

Exactly the Afghanistan team bowled well in the third T20 match against Ireland as a result of which the Afghanistan team managed to bowl out the Ireland team for just 98 runs. There has been a lot of improvement in the bowling lineup of the Afghanistan team. Azmatullah Omarzai's four overs in the third T20I match against Ireland saw him deliver a remarkable bowling performance.On that day Azmatullah Omarzai picked up four wickets for just nine runs in four overs where he completely controlled the game for the Afghanistan team.

I agree that Afghanistan bowling was really good in third T20 match against Ireland. Azmatullah Omarzai played very well and helped team to win match. The Afghanistan team bowling has gotten much better and they did a great job in getting Ireland out for only 98 runs. This win is a big deal for team. By the way I also appreciate the batting of Ibrahim Zardan. He made 72 runs and remained not out. He deserved the player of the match award. Naveen also good in bowling. Overall Afghanistan played really well.

You are right Afghanistan bowling performance is outstanding in this match Azmatullah Omarzai who bowl well picked up 4 important wickets by just giving 9 runs and Naveen-ul-Haq also bowl amazing picked 3 crucial wickets by giving 10 runs in his bowling spell and bowled Out Ireland team under 100 runs. I think after this huge deafet from Afghanistan, Ireland team will improve its batting Unit. Rashid Khan also picked one important wicket in this match and also won the Player of the Series award for his all-round performance in this series.

Islamabad United managed to win only because of Imad Wasim's good performance. But I thought Multan Sultan team can win, but Multan Sultan lost because of attacking team by bowling performance itself. The bowling performance of the Islamabad United team was improved by Imad Wasim who collected five wickets in four overs and the wickets belonged to the Multan Sultan team. So the main reason for the victory of Islamabad United team is Imad Wasim.

Just electing bat first was good decision for the Multan Sultans after this in all game they were badly down specially from the start Imad Waseem done the damage and take 4 wickets from their top 6 batsmen which badly break their backbone even at the end we have some good hitting from the Iftikhar Ahmed which bring Multan Sultans at the good target but still this was not enough for stopping Islamabad United from becoming third time champions of the PSL even in early round mostly were giving honour to Multan Sultans or Peshawar Zalmi but at the end we have all good for the Islamabad United which is having good performance from their all available players.

Imad Waseem give his best in important matches which is surely impressive with Usama Mir ended with top wicket taker and Babar Azam as top runs scorer, but winner is Islamabad United through their best performance in important games.

England Women's team batted first and set a target of 161 runs. Captain Heather Knight played an excellent innings of 63 off 39 balls. Even though England Women were given a target of 161 runs, I thought the match would be competitive. But the match was completely one-sided. The batsmen of the New Zealand women's team have been batting very slowly since the beginning of the match. And in the end, New Zealand women's team collected 133 runs losing 5 wickets. The New Zealand team was defeated by 27 runs.

England women ended up scoring 160 runs. The England Women's captain's excellent performance made the score big. England women captain Heather Knight batted very well she scored 63 runs off 39 balls with a strike rate of 160 plus. Anyway, New Zealand women came down to bat with the aim of winning and scored 133 runs by taking 5 wickets in 20 overs. New Zealand women had enough wickets but the batsmen could not bat with a high strike rate. New Zealand women's captain Suzie Bates batted a little better, she scored 65 off 51 balls, she should have done better. Maddy Green and Georgia Plimmer did not bat well, their strike rate was below 100. England women won the first match and lead by 1-0, England women will win the series if they win 2 matches out of 4 matches.

Afghanistan coming back into their best in white-ball format with their performance which is surely now improved after the Rashid Khan back things were looking not good after their lost of test match, but they achieve their target in ODI and then T20i and won the matches easily Ireland is also good, but they needed more experience and improved quality if they want to compete with the teams in this format.

156 was looking achievable for the Ireland, but their batting badly collapsed and fail to give any resistance with just three batsmen able to touch double figure digit and Azmatullah Omarzai with 4 and Naveen ul Haq with 3 wickets demolish the Irish batting lineup and win this match and series with huge margin which is good after few bad matches in last few months.

Rashid Khan keeps impressing us, and Afghanistan is back in top form in white-ball cricket thanks to him. Rashid Khan was named the player of the series against Ireland.
Afghanistan's target seemed attainable for Ireland, but Afghanistan's bowling attack dismantled Ireland, restricting them to just 98 runs all out. As a result, Afghanistan won the three-match T20I series 2-1. It was a quality performance from Afghanistan, but Ireland showed improvement. This Irish side played well throughout the series, although there is still room for improvement.

IPL 2024 is going to start in a couple of days and I am excited as usual. MSD will probably play for the last time sadly while Kohli is under even more pressure after the women's team won a cup for Bangalore at last.

Am also excited to see Rinku Singh finish off games in style and Hardik taking over from Rohit as the captain of MI. Excited!
