T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Swordsoffreedom]

I am interested in tomorrow's match between Bangladesh Women's Team vs Australia Women's Team. This is the first match of the 3-match ODI series.

Well you can get advance results for me Australia will won the series (lol) joking, I think it will depend on current day performance of team if Bangladesh able to tackle pressure situation well and Handel pressure situation than they can easily won the matches against any top side, it's not compulsory that only strong side will win we have seen alot of matches where weaker team shocked top side by defeating time at important matches. So Bangladesh should just focus on his hardwork and build unique bowling tactics to put Australian in big big trouble

I am sure that unless a miracle happens, Australia will win this series easily. Bangladesh women's team is unlikely to win even a single match against a strong team like Australia women's team. Because I am aware of the performance of these two teams.

You probably haven't seen the speech of Sultana, one of the most talented players of the Bangladesh team. Sultana said she considers Australian players as her idols. From this it is understood that Australian players are much ahead compared to Bangladeshi players.

Bangladesh team is weak in women's cricket. Still the performance of almost all sports is erratic. Even then, Bangladesh will try to do well with the advantage of home ground. But the Australian women's team is very experienced. The squad has a lot of talented players who are capable of consistently performing well.

A new season of IPL is going to start in a few days. Every team has already started their training camp. Players purchased by each team have attended their respective teams' training camps. Each team formed two teams and played practice matches. IPL is a very familiar name to those of us who follow cricket. The people of those countries who do not have any cricket mood throughout the year also enjoy IPL during this season. The whole cricketing world is waiting for the opening match of IPL. It goes without saying that all the teams have spent enough money this season to build teams that will surely be the best competition this season.

GT team looks weak this time around with absence of Hardik Pandya and Md. Shami, Hardik was great all rounder who used to strengthen the lower middle order (I liked his batting than bowling) and Md. Shami he was purple cap winner in last IPL edition and also he did supremely good in odi wc despite missing first few matches, and he was top wicket taker there as well.

Add GIll as a captain, I think it'll be alright though, there are experienced players like Williamson, Miller who should be able to guide him well, he's also good by himself, hopefully being captain doesn't affect his batting, in last season it was his in-form batting that helped GT put good total on the board.

I was excited to see Robin Minz, but he's been sidelined now due to injury (he had minor accident couple weeks ago).

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 big total of 155/7. Ireland failed to chasing the target even with Curtis Campher 28 runa inning and harey tector and All Out in just 98 scores in 18 th over of the game. This win credits go to Bangladeshi young batters who did really well in this game and had standout performances in that series.

Take a good look at how badly Ireland's batting has performed in the main phase. The performance was so bad that there was no way this team could have won against Afghanistan. The players of the Ireland team were not patient, due to which the match was forced to be lost by 57 runs. And the batsmen of the Afghanistan team performed very well and won because of their good bowling performance.  Certainly the optimistic Afghanistan team got its due result in this match.

Agreed. Poor performance from Irish batsmen. But then the bowlers were not much better either. Mark Adair and Barry McCarthy leaked too many runs. And the captain didn't allowed the economical Gareth Delany to bowl more than one over. Ireland was in dire straits at 46/5 (this was when George Dockrell got out). There was some fightback from Curtis Campher and Gareth Delany, but that was not enough to get them to the three digit mark. After winning the first match, Ireland went on to lose the series 1-2.

Dhoni vs Kohli! What a way to kickoff IPL 2024. This is most probably Dhoni's final season which is probably why CSK is playing against RCB instead of GT in the first match of the season.

It will be interesting seeing both teams play thanks to several new additions. Hope MSD bats in the middle order instead of the lower order this time around.

Yes it is clearly seen that the batsmen of the Ireland team did not bat well even many saw it directly in the field. The batsmen of the Ireland team could not maintain their batting consistency in the third T20 match as they batted in the previous matches. Ireland's main hope, one of their best batsman Harry Tector also failed to score enough runs.

In the third match, the Afghanistan team bowled well, which helped them defeat the Ireland team.The runs scored by Afghanistan against Ireland could have been surpassed if the Irish batsmen had been batting carefully.

When was the last time that any of the Irish batsmen performed consistently? Paul Stirling and Andy Balbirnie have been out of form for some time now. Lorcan Tucker and Harry Tector have been showing a lot of promise, but their form is volatile. Curtis Campher is another promising player who has been inconsistent. Bowling is a little bit better, but then Josh Little is not always available for national duty. And that means that most of the burden needs to be borne by Mark Adair, Craig Young and Barry McCarthy.

Namibia is not strong, because many of their regular players are missing. JJ Smit, Ruben Trumpelmann and Bernard Scholtz are missing in the squad for this tournament. On the other hand, Uganda has fielded a full-strength side. And don't forget the fact that Uganda finished ahead of Zimbabwe in the T20 qualifiers. They are one of the African sides who are rapidly improving. The captain Brian Masaba is leading from the front, well supported by other players such as Riazat Ali Shah, Dinesh Nakrani, Frank Nsubuga, Roger Mukasa and Henry Ssenyondo.

Yes you are right not having important players in Namibian team makes them weaker but we can't say that they are not good. Every team has problems with injuries or missing players sometimes and other players need to do well. Uganda has all their best players and did well in recent matches so they are tough team to play against. But we should not say Namibia is not strong. If the team works together and players do their best Namibia can still do well in today match. By the way still we can't say anything Namibia players will fullfil the space of missing players or not but still they have chances of winning.

Well.. Namibia is one of the strongest associate nations, not just from Africa but also from around the world. Uganda has a long distance to go before they reach there. This tournament will also test the player depth in Namibia. Cricket in Namibia is mostly played by the German and Dutch speaking population, while the native Africans are not much interested in the sport. However in the squad for this tournament, they have a number of native players such as Simon Petrus Shikongo, Ben Shikongo, Addo Iita and Junior Kariata. This will help cricket to expand within Namibia.

Dhoni vs Kohli! What a way to kickoff IPL 2024. This is most probably Dhoni's final season which is probably why CSK is playing against RCB instead of GT in the first match of the season.

It will be interesting seeing both teams play thanks to several new additions. Hope MSD bats in the middle order instead of the lower order this time around.

Aha, it's still Kohli vs X, Kohli vs Y. I feel bad for Faf lol, even in some footage I've seen from the RCB unboxing event it looked like Kohli took center stage, which is technically reserved for the captain.

Also, news is coming up that Gaikwad is the new captain of CSK. Thala will fill out the entertainment quota.

Dhoni versus Kohli, they're set to bring back the excitement.

It's official! MSD is passing on the captaincy to Gaikwad. A very good decision from MSD, but this will be his last IPL. It's sad, but let's support Ruturaj Gaikwad, and hopefully, he proves to be the right choice. I'm sure he will improve as the games progress. Thala is going to shine this season.

Franchise leagues are all about money, it's more likely they choose Dhoni and Kohli because these two are popular players, and they wanted to start IPL with a bang. GT was in final last year but don't have any star players (Gill is having some limelight but not as much as aforementioned two).

IMO it's a good idea that they decided to give captaincy to Gaikwad while Dhoni is there, so he can mould him. This should also help prevent drastic change for the team.

Aha, it's still Kohli vs X, Kohli vs Y. I feel bad for Faf lol, even in some footage I've seen from the RCB unboxing event it looked like Kohli took center stage, which is technically reserved for the captain.

IKR, it has always felt like Kohli is leading RCB whoever captain may be, may be it's because he has been part of RCB for so long.

Zimbabwe vs Kenya

The Mens African Games first semi-final match is over, with Namibia defeating Uganda to reach the final. The second semi-final match has started between Zimbabwe and Kenya. Zimbabwe won the toss and elected to bat. Zimbabwe collected 196 runs losing 5 wickets in the allotted overs. Clive Madande and Clive Madande both batted well scoring 41 and 42 runs respectively. Tashinga Musekiwa put in a brilliant performance at the end to take the team to the big target, scoring 39 off 10 balls. If the Zimbabwean bowlers perform well, Zimbabwe will win. Today, Zimbabwe are more likely to win. But it is seen which team wins in the end.

The 2024 Indian Premier League IPL is going to start tomorrow with the match between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. In the first match of this year's Indian Premier League Royal Challengers Bangalore will face the last champion Chennai Super Kings, Chennai team has changed the captaincy. Rituraj Gaikode is the new captain of Chennai Super Kings and the team of Chennai Super Kings has been formed with confidence in him.

On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bengaluru is captained by South African player Faf Du plessis. We all know that IPL means the gathering of star players where the best players from different countries of the world are selected to play in IPL.

Kenya against Zimbabwe squad today  semi final match, both these squads are stronger squads in African games competition and in yesterday, these squads fought with other squads and beated very badly and won with high difference of scores. In today second semi final match, toss already finished among sqauds and Zimbabwe won toss. Zimbabwe squad also has begun this match first with batting Inning and their performance in this inning was unbelievable because 199 scores collected in 20 overs which seem very dangerous defeating target. Kenya squad surely lost this match after seeing their current batting situation, 7 wickets lost and collected 109 scores in 16 overs and 88 scores remain off 4 overs for win this match. Kenya squad has start this match with impressive performance, Collins Obuya collected 52 scores but after losing wicket of Sukhdeep Singh and rest batter lost their wickets at very low scores.

Zimbabwe had set an amazing target of 196. As soon as I saw this total, I knew Keyna would lose. But their start was pretty good. They had lost only 2 wickets in 71 runs after 8.3 overs of play. But after that, the wickets kept falling and Kenya could not do anything about that. The Required run rate before this wicket falling spree was somewhat under control. I was thinking Kenya might actually win this.

Zimbabwe were definitely the deserving winner of this match. In the other Semi-Final, Namibia has beaten Uganda by 24 runs. That match was a low-scoring match which was very much enjoyable.
