T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

In the final match of the Mens African Games, Zimbabwe won the title with an eight-wicket win over Namibia. In today's final match.

Namibia is good team. They scored good runs in recent ODI matches but Zimbabwe is old player, experience enough in cricket environment. That's why they beat Namibia badly. Namibia tried to play their best and so was seen in the match and finally made 113 runs in 20 overs but Zimbabwe easily filled up the targeted runs within 15 overs. Tadiwanashe Marumani did 58 runs from 40 balls. And rest of two player also made decent amount of runs to won the match.

It's more like a hit and miss case.

In IPL, most of the players are not really keen on reading the ball from the release or off the pitch they just want to slog it over the fence everytime. Some players get success too with this technique by dancing down the track and not letting the ball to speak while few masterclass spinners use this as an advantage to keep taking wickets. This is why Rashid khan is deadly bowler in T20 but less effective in longer formats of cricket.

It applies to every batsman and the format hardly matters. Surely, It's not related to the IPL or T-20 format per se. Batters were always playing the false shots, it's just we now have a new fancy word and definition.

If we look at it, then it's not very different from -Getting beaten on the inside/outside edge or not timing the ball-

You are right that's why I have said that sunrisers Hyderabad seems in a good condition. It's really huge run what they are take now they have more it wicket their current rate is 103 after 10 over 4 ball. Even then there required and it is higher now from the current run rate but their performance is going amazing. They have enough we get for winning this match. I think sunrisers Hyderabad will definitely on this match as they are performance going on.

Great recovery by KKR after losing 4 quick wickets. Andre Russell brilliant knock of 64 runs that include 7 sixes has helped KKR in giving a massive target of 208 runs. Right now SRH need 77 runs in 24 balls, which is not much likely to happen. The batting of SRH is also disappointing like there bowling. It's very first game and SRH need to improve there performance to stay in the tournament.

Kolkata Knight Riders won the thriller match by 4 runs.

The last match of IPL 2024 season saw a tough contest between Kolkata Knight Riders and SRH. We have to wait till the last ball to know which team will win the match. It was a possibility till the last ball which team would win and finally Kolkata's victory was confirmed at the end of the 20th over.  Kolkata secured a win by just 4 runs against SRH. 

SRH started with a target of 209 runs and they ended up performing like that but it has to be said that they were beaten by luck in the end. 

Kolkata Knight Riders won the first match between Kolkata and SRH by four runs. 
Congratulations to Kolkata Knight Riders for giving them a great win in the first match of the season.

In the Kolkata Knight Riders vs Sunrisers Hyderabad match, the Kolkata team collected 208 runs by batting in the first innings. In today's match Kolkata team's batsmen two players have performed exceptionally well due to which they managed to get a huge score. Salt and Russell's superb half-centuries put Kolkata in the lead, and they have a chance to win today. But at the moment Sunrise Hyderabad are batting, and they are in great form and if they can hold on till the last minute then victory is possible. If Sunrise Hyderabad has not lost any wicket at that moment, then if they continue to play, they may be able to meet the target of 209 runs. And today's score made by Kolkata is very difficult for Hyderabad to meet this target, so they have to play well, otherwise victory is not possible. Abhishek Sharma and Mayank Agarwal are the two batsmen battling it out for Hyderabad, and they are having a great batting performance at the moment, still needing 187 runs to win.

Great innings played by by salt and Russell rather than them none of their batters scored brilliantly, but somehow, due to these two guys contributions, they were finally able to hit a 200+ target otherwise things were very tough for them to recover after  the middle order disaster collapse, But when it comes to Hyderabad batting some of their top order batters played quite badly with a lowest strike rate which create huge problem for them to meet the required run rate, after some of thier important dismissal most of us taught it gona be huge margin defeat for Hyderabad because they are already far away form his requirements but the sunsational show from klassen completely change entire situation and suddenly momentum were start to shifting toward them because he hit 8 sixes with 217.24 strike but unfortunately he got dismissed after scoring 63 and his got defeated.

So far, we have seen three matches of this year's Indian Premier League. Where the first match is Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bangalore, the second match is Punjab Kings vs Delhi Capitals, and the third match is Kolkata Knight Riders vs Sunrisers Hyderabad. In these three matches, each team played a hard-fought game. From the game of these three matches, it can be understood that this year's IPL is going to be very interesting. The performance of each team player is unmatched. It is very difficult to predict the win or loss of the match with such a performance. Therefore, in this year's IPL, gamblers will be in a bit of a dilemma about winning the match. But I hope we can enjoy such a competitive game till the last match of IPL.

there was an excellent final match of Namibia vs Zimbabwe, and Zimbabwe become the winner of thiis Mens African Games, 2024 event. It was hard for Namibia to reach this final cause they also lost matches in others countries while Zimbabwe quality continuesly in recent matches. Even in final they played so well. Namibia won the toss and opt to the Batting first but they didn't well done. Malan Kruger did 22 runs, JP Kotze did 26 runs, Dylan Leicher 29 runs and 113 runs was final collection with 7 wickets. But from Zimbabwe,. Marumani and Rodney Mupfdza done well partnership of 55(45) runs. So is for Marumani and Johnathan partnership 55(42). and archive the victory against Namibia

Yesterday we enjoyed the most exciting moment of the 2024 IPL season between Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad. Both teams have collected 400 plus runs in the only match of this year's Indian Premier League. Kolkata Knight Riders' Andre Russell's batting performance was absolutely the highlight of the game as he sent most of the balls out of bounds with the power of his muscles. Andre Russell lit up the entire stadium at the Eden Gardens Stadium in Kolkata yesterday with his batting performance which resulted in his team putting up a strong score against the opposition.

Just like Caribbean Andre Russell has done his power hitting batting, Sunrisers Hyderabad's South African batsman Henry Klaasen has also done similar power hitting batting. If Sunrisers Hyderabad had won then Henry Klaasen would have been the man of the match as Andre Russell had been as his side had won.

As many franchise tournaments as I have seen, there are some top players who don't perform regularly. Nothing like that happened in the third match of this IPL season. Andre Russell may not score more in every match but everyone saw how aggressive he played in the last match. A storming innings by Heinrich Klaasen created drama in the match. The two Giants players on the two teams scored almost identically. Heinrich Klaasen scored 63 runs off 29 balls while Andre Russell scored 64 runs. Usually 200+ scores make it difficult to win those matches. But there Sunrisers Hyderabad showed a good performance despite not winning the match. After winning the match we saw Andre Russell  got the player of the Match.

Sunrise Hyderabad lost this game but I will praise their hard work. Sunrise Hyderabad were hardworking enough to lose to Kolkata Knight Riders team after scoring 204 runs. Especially Kolkata Knight Riders performance was so good that only batting performance Salt and Russell these two batsmen performed well for Kolkata Knight Riders team. According to the performance of these two batsmen, Kolkata Knight Riders were forced to collect 208 runs, and the Kolkata Knight Riders team won by just four runs in the last minute.

I am really feeling nothing positive for the Pakistan cricket with this news now he is almost 35 years and have no good prospect for the Pakistan team with now it's time for bringing new blood and better quality players even he was good in recent addition of the PSL 2024 but still I am not in favor of this decision because now it's time for moving ahead instead of going with players like these which are now having nothing for the team they need to stay in leagues and having some money for the age after retirement is enough for them.
But as we all know Pakistan cricket is never been stable, so drama's like these are happening for years even they are having too many young and talented players, but their system never allows them to be groomed as quality players which is matter of concern for them but no one looking into these deep issues and mostly having drama's like these coming out of the retirement and then suddenly again having another decision which create too many memes and jokes about their all mentality and system in the past.

Before his retirement he spoke so much against Babar Azam along with Muhammad Amir on TV channels. How can he play with Babar Azam and other players who he criticised by sitting in TV channels. Players like Imad Wasim, Shadab and Azam khan are too good in PSL or other leagues but they are constant failure in international cricket where standards are quite high. Moreover, Imad has not played domestic cricket and if he is included in the team then it's injustice to players in domestic setup.

According to the performance of these two batsmen, Kolkata Knight Riders were forced to collect 208 runs, and the Kolkata Knight Riders team won by just four runs in the last minute.

By the way Sunrise Hyderabad lost, they should be praised for working hard in match. Scoring 204 runs was not easy and their effort was impressive. Kolkata Knight Riders had to depend on Salt and Russell great performances to win which shows that Sunrise Hyderabad fought well. The game was close and sometimes luck does not go your way. Both teams showed good skill and sportsmanship making match exciting. Overall match was really really really exciting.

I think that franchise tournaments like IPL are exciting to watch because they are unpredictable and full of fun. Sometimes even best players do not always play well. But moments like Russell strong batting and Klaasen's impressive performance are what make fans really excited. Both players scored almost same which shows how tough competition is. Teams like Sunrisers Hyderabad also showed that they can keep fighting even if they do not win. By the way SRH fought really well they just lost match by 5 runs.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Sunrise Hyderabad match was very exciting. Kolkata Set to bat against a target of 208 runs given by Kolkata Knight Riders, Sunrise Hyderabad's openers got off to a great start and gradually came close to victory but needed 6 runs from the last 3 balls but failed to take the surprise Hyderabad. Due to this, the four-run match against Kolkata Knight Riders. Sunrise Hyderabad was defeated. However, Sunrise Hyderabad performed very well against Kolkata Knight Riders and the match was very competitive between the two teams. However, Sunrise Hyderabad has some great foreign players including David Warner. So it is expected that Sunrise Hyderabad started with a loss in the first match of this IPL, but if Sunrise Hyderabad can bat well, this team has the possibility to do something good in IPL.

What happened yesterday between SRH and KKR is frequent happening in T20 games. SRH required 7 from 5 after Klassen hit 6 in first ball of last over, they could have gone for singles/doubles or threw ball over the fence if there was a lose one and easily would have have won the game, but they went for big shots and lost the game.

I wouldn't be saying this of course had SRH won but I feel it would have been wise from SRH batters if they played sensibly there.

Though, it's better team that won, SRH openers that look like they gave a good start to team upon look of scorebaord got lucky several times in start.

Kolkata Knight Riders bought Mitchell Starc at the highest price in this IPL but his performance against SRH makes it look like he is a big loss project for Kolkata. Mitchell Starc is playing in Kolkata Knight Riders for Rs 25 Crores while Rinku Singh is playing in Kolkata for just 50 Lakh Indian Rupees.  I don't understand why Kolkata bought Mitchell Starc for INR 25 crores. While the other bowlers were not so expansive in the first match, Mitchell Starc was definitely more expansive. Mitchell Starc is back in IPL after a long break, maybe 2 matches will be bad for him, it is not unusual, but if he is consistently expansive like this, he will definitely be criticized.

Russell and Salt were the only good batting performances of the two players which allowed them to collect 208 runs. But Sunrise Hyderabad performed so well that they lost by just four runs. Sunrise Hyderabad's Tripathi has collected 20 runs from 20 balls, this player is a bit lacking but unique batsman they are all right. If he could have put in more good performances then surely Sunrise Hyderabad team would have won. But this judgment should never be relied upon, Marco Jansen and Commis were the two batsmen who basically played two balls but scored just one run. So Sunrise Hyderabad could have secured the win only if they could make up the shortfall of these two places.

[Swordsoffreedom]

After a poor performance in the first two matches, the New Zealand team managed to defeat the England women's team in the third match. The New Zealand women's team lost the first three matches due to their poor batting. And in today's match, New Zealand batsmen performed well enough, that's why New Zealand women team won. New Zealand women's team won today's match by just 3 runs.

New Zealand collected 155 runs losing only 3 wickets. Amelia Kerr was unbeaten on 44 off 35 balls. Sophie Devine scored 60 runs off 37 balls. Bernadine's innings of 34 off 27 balls was also necessary.

On the other hand, no other batsman can play well except Maia Bouchier and Beaumount of England squad. Bouchier collected 71 runs and Beaumount collected 37 runs.

In the last 2 overs, England needed only 11 runs to win. But it was not collected by England women's batsmen. England collected only 7 runs in the last two overs.

You are right, despite being the most expensive player of Kolkata Knight Riders, Mitchell Starc did not prove himself in the first match of Kolkata Knight Riders. The way Mitchell Starc bowled against Sunrise Hyderabad was really disappointing. Had Kolkata Knight Riders not won yesterday's match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, there would have been more questions for Mitchell Starc as to why he did not perform well. Mitchell Starc bowled four overs and got no wickets with 53 runs. Mitchell Starc should try to bowl better in the next matches so that There is no more question about him why Kolkata Knight Riders bought him for so much money and he is not performing well, he has to perform at his best in the next matches.

It happens, there are many cases where expensive players fail to deliver and that brings anxiety to franchise owners. Starc figures were horrible in yesterday game as he gave away 53 runs in his 4 overs without picking up any wicket. SRH were very close to win in yesterday's game as 4 runs were required on last 2 balls and Rana got the crucial wicket of Heinrich Klaasen on 5th delivery of final over. Heinrich Klaasen played so well but failed to deliver when we was required the most. 

[Haunebu]

Cummins and Starc performed like crap and were overhyped as expected. There are extremely few cases of big budget players actually living up to their prices in the IPL so far based on my observations.

SRH came a lot closer to the target than what I expected, but they didn't cross the line successfully as expected. Also, KKR fielding was just abysmal in this match.
