T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[fuguebtc]

The only sign that Gujarat Titans lost this match was the fall of extra wickets. The more wickets fell the quicker the all-out was, this match lacked patient batsmen. Lucknow Super Giants have performed very well, they have performed quite well in batting but they have performed best in bowling. Yash Thakur and Krunal Pandya played a major role in winning this match due to their excellent bowling performance.

LSG bowlers must be commended for Gujarat's loss of extra wickets as LSG bowlers bowled well due to which GT batsmen could not hold their wickets. In some matches, the team wins due to the skill of the batsmen and in some matches, the batsmen of the opposite team are defeated by the brilliant bowling of the bowlers, resulting in the victory of the team with the complete contribution of the bowlers. Just as you blame gt's defeat only on the batsmen losing wickets, you can also appreciate the brilliant bowling of the lsg bowlers. If LSG's bowlers had bowled badly but the batsmen would have stayed on the wicket and if any batsman had stayed for the wicket the score would have been much higher. I hope I have made this very clear in my discussion.

The main reason for LSG's win was Yash Thakur and Krunal Pandya's excellent bowling. Yash Thakur took 5 wickets. Also Krunal's superb controlled bowling put Gujarat batsmen under a lot of pressure and lost the match. Krunal took only three wickets. But he gave only 11 runs in 4 overs. Yash took 5 wickets with 30 runs in 3.5 overs.

After giving LSG a target of 164 I don't think LSG can win this match. Moreover, Gujarat's two overs started well enough. Every batsman in Gujarat's squad is very experienced. Even then, the Gujarat team lost the match by 33 runs. I expected better batting from Gujarat players.

Gujarat have completed two seasons of IPL so far and this is their third season. Gujarat Titans won the IPL title in the first season and lost in the finals in the second season they were successful in the first two seasons. They have good batsmen and they have good bowlers which is why they have done so well in the first two seasons. We should have no doubts about the batting lineup of those who qualified in the first two seasons and played in the finals in the first two seasons. If you don't give credit to LSG's bowlers for keeping such a strong batting line-up to so few runs then I'd say you're not talking from cricketing knowledge. LSG's bowlers certainly bowled the best and bowled economically as well as picking up wickets at regular intervals which is why they bowled so brilliantly against such a strong batting line-up.

Did you not read my post? I also said that LSG won this match only because of their brilliant bowling. If the bowlers don't perform well, LSG won't be able to win this match. Because on this pitch it was a very difficult task to win by giving a target of only 164 runs. However, LSG won the match by a huge margin of 33 runs.

Gujarat's batting order is one of the strongest batting order among the teams in this year's IPL. Sai Sudarshan, Gill, Williamson, Vijay, Rahul and Rashid Khan are all experienced batsmen for the T20 format. LSG bowlers bowled brilliantly against such experienced batsmen. Their bowling was very controlled. This is why the batting of Gujarat batsmen was very slow from the beginning of the innings.

I would say the turning point of this match was Krunal Pandya's ninth over. In this over Krunal pandya took 2 wickets giving only 3 runs. And even after this over, the Gujarat batsmen were under more pressure.

First win for Mumbai Indians. Delhi Capitals won the toss and made Mumbai bat first. Mumbai batting first in their home ground were able to make a massive score of 234. The opening duo of Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan gave Mumbai the headstart and Hardik Pandya, Tim David and Romario Shepherd too batted well. Coincidentally, none of them even made a 50 but collectively scored a good total.
Delhi chasing a huge target, started well. Prithvi Shaw hit 66 and Tristan Stubbs made a 71 not out. They were at times in a better run rate than required. All the difference was made by the last over of MI and DC. MI on the last over scored 32 without a loss while DC only scored 4 runs losing 3 wickets.

MI and DC are both weak teams of IPL 2024, we can find both teams at bottom of the points table. Today's game was good for MI in a sense that they finally had a victory after 3 straight loses and for DC it's just another loss. The way both teams are playing it's very difficult for both of them to qualify for eliminators. MI had an excellent start of there innings because of 80 runs opening runs stand given by Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan. DC team has brilliant players like David Warner but overall the team has not many big names.

Mumbai Indians won against not a big team. Delhi Capitals are not such a good team as Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangaluru have some good levels.

It is a small team that is why I think that they can only get a win to this type of weak team, their next match is with Royal Challengers Bangaluru and then the next to next match is with Chennai Super Kings. Royal Challengers Bengaluru current situation is like Mumbai Indians because they have players but not performing well as we can see Mumbai Indians as an example. However Chennai Super Kings is always in good mood as they were in previous seasons.  Hope for good, I hope that we will see improvement in Mumbai Indians team.

In the first match of the day today on Super Sunday, we saw a tough fight and the tough fight eventually saw Mumbai Indians secure a 29-run victory over Delhi Capitals. Mumbai Indians batted first and scored 234 runs, in reply Delhi Capitals managed to score 205 runs, as a result of which Mumbai Indians won the match by 29 runs. This is Mumbai Indians' first win of the season. Before today's match, Mumbai Indians had lost three of their first three matches. After losing three matches in a row, Mumbai Indians turned around in the fourth match. The other match of the day saw LSG pick up an easy win against GT and the second match of the day was definitely a low scoring match.

Yesterday, the whole team of Mumbai Indians played very well except only some players by the names of Surya Kumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, and in bowling Akash Madhwal, Muhammad Nabi, Piyush Chawla. These are the three bowlers who get more runs in just one or two overs that’s why Hardik Pandya didn’t give them bowl for bowling because he understood that if they came then the match would go in a bad direction and again Mumbai Indians crowd would be disappointed as we have done in the last three matches.

However the bowlers from Mumbai Indians like Bumrah, Gerald Coetzee, Romario Shepherd and earlier the batting from Rohit Sharma and Tim David didn’t allow them to miss this opportunity and they together with teamwork registered their win against Delhi Capitals.

At the end of the day Namibia took this t20 format series with a strong performance. Although I expected Namibia to win the series beforehand, But Oman's performance in the middle cast some doubts as to whether Namibia could win the series. I will say that today all Namibia's top orders batsmen did their job excellent Specially the captain Gerhard Erasmus this man is on fire in the last of their innings I think for only this man Namibia make that kind of high target today. More over he is not only good at batting today he also took two big wicket of Oman today. And also he became the Player of the match. Anyway it was an excellent match with good performances from both the batting and bowling side. The series will be very important for Namibia as the series will see them level with 12th-ranked Zimbabwe in the ICC Men's T20 Team Rankings. Anyway the way they are going I think will pass the Zimbabwe soon.

Oman did a good job by winning 2 games and keeping the series alive till last game. In last game, Namibia batting was superb and they gave a huge target of 212. Oman skipper tried 8 different bowlers but they were able to pick only 3 wickets. In run chase, only Naseem Khushi and Aqib Ilyas were able to have a partnership of 83 runs. Bernard Scholtz from Namibia was man of the match for his spell in which he picked 4 wickets.

Namibia players really played very well this time , especially G Erasmus he took 4 wickets by giving 22 runs in 4 overs and he also made a score for his team and was awarded as a player of the match , he completed his half of made 64 run in just 29 balls with continue  their inning and j Kotze and Kruger also palyed very well they j kotze made 48 run and Kruger made 45 run in 28 balls .These two player well contribute to stand a big score .India has performed well in batting but even better played  in bowling and and dismissed oman in 18 overs .

First of all this is a huge win for the Namibian team. Their batsmen set a big target of 212 in 20 overs.  That was a very good target.  Their batsmen gave this target with hard work and struggle.  Their batsmen did well in the match and played the match with interest and their bowlers did not waste their hard work.  Their bowler stopped the run of Oman batsmen and took wickets and won the match.  My congratulations to the Namibia team for the win and may they continue to play like this and win matches.  And the Oman team should emphasize its performance.

Mumbai Indians won against not a big team. Delhi Capitals are not such a good team as Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangaluru have some good levels.

It is a small team that is why I think that they can only get a win to this type of weak team, their next match is with Royal Challengers Bangaluru and then the next to next match is with Chennai Super Kings. Royal Challengers Bengaluru current situation is like Mumbai Indians because they have players but not performing well as we can see Mumbai Indians as an example. However Chennai Super Kings is always in good mood as they were in previous seasons.  Hope for good, I hope that we will see improvement in Mumbai Indians team.

Every season MI starts with losing streak but once they starts to win they win non stop but this year new captaincy so we have to wait and see it's possible for them to repeat the same tradition.

Don't forget DC won against CSK in their previous match so no team is weaker but we can say they don't have best possible XI compared to some other teams.

Finally, RCB for real.

This time their star batsmen clicked, and as a result they got to a huge total of 212/3 after 20 overs (which was tough against a bowling attack that consisted of Kaleemullah, Fayyaz Butt, Ayaan Khan and Mehran Khan). JP Kotze and Malan Kruger managed to build a first wicket partnership of 76 runs, and then Gerhard Erasmus and David Wiese took over. Bernard Scholtz excelled with the ball. Despite all this, a 3-2 series win is not enough for Namibia. Their T20I rankings will go down by a lot.

Bernard Scholtz made a significant contribution to Namibia's win in the series. If he not picked up 4 wickets then the margin of victory would not have been so big. Gerhard Erasmus contributed the most to the team. On the one hand took two wickets in bowling and on the other hand managed to score a big score for the team. He has batted at a strike rate of 220. A big innings of 64 off 29 balls saw Namibia win the series. However, Namibia's chances of winning the series were higher because they are a better team than Oman. Namibia is far ahead of Oman in the ICC rankings. I think this team can go further in the coming days. With a famous prayer like David Wiese in the team, the team is definitely looking strong. Moreover, David Wiese has done very well in terms of performance.

[noormcs5]

Every season MI starts with losing streak but once they starts to win they win non stop but this year new captaincy so we have to wait and see it's possible for them to repeat the same tradition.

Now, I think this match was the turning point for the Mumbai Indians team because I think from here, they will rise once again as they raised in the previous seasons but now they also have to play in such a propagated way else for sure they will lose the matches once again and again touch the bottom line of point table.

I hope that now their coach Mark Boucher and their captain Hardik Pandya would have notice their mistakes where they had to face difficulties in yesterday’s match and try to improve it then they can go up in the point table, and still there are too many matches still left in the tournament.

[Ayers]

Kolkata's strong batting order failed completely against Chennai's bowlers today. At the end of 17 overs, Kolkata managed to collect only 113 runs. Kolkata lost 6 wickets. Kolkata cannot collect even 160 today.

Every batsman in the squad batted slow today. Chennai's bowlers did not do well in the previous match but today they bowled well. Jadeja picked up three wickets for just 18 runs in 4 overs. Rushar Deshpande picked up two wickets. Mustafiz has not yet taken a single wicket, Mustafiz has given 12 runs in 2 overs. The match is completely under Chennai's control so far. The Kolkata team is likely to suffer their first defeat today.

I think they have to improve their bowling attack not like with wickets to defending scores because if Mumbai Indians’ batsmen didn’t make good scores, then the Delhi Capitals team could have won that match.

That was Mumbai Indian's luck that Mumbai Indians made a good score. In the end, if Tim David and Romario Shepherd would not have hit sixes then what would happen with their team because you can see in 10 balls if he didn’t make 39 runs then Mumbai Indian's target would be under 200 and Delhi Capitals could chase that easily. That was a very thankful moment for Romario Shepherd by Mumbai Indians fans, the team, and all the staff.

Oman vs Namibia  5th T20

Well I think we really underestimate one of top sides like namabia after few early defeat against Oman, it's true that Oman really shocked and impressed us because we were never expect such results from them and that's why we backed and courage Oman after such performance but as soon as wiese join team thier performance got fire and they consecutively won thier  two matches with a huge margin, I think Oman should work on Thier strong bowling to make it more perfect because they way they bowed down entire Namibia batting Line up in few innings they can put any team in trouble, anyway if we have a look at scoreboard where namabian top to bottom player perform well and done significant job and as a result while chasing thier opponent was in huge pressure and due to lack of experience unable to get the game and thus they lose the game

Oman very disappointing performance in the final match of the series and lost the match by 62 runs. Namibia won the series against Oman by 3-2. The Player of the Match is Gerhard Erasmus from Namibia for his outstanding all-round batting and bowling performance Scored 64 runs from just 29 balls and also picked 2 important wickets by giving 22 runs in his bowling spell. Oman needed to improve his batting and bowling performance in the next matches.

Rushar Deshpande picked up two wickets. Mustafiz has not yet taken a single wicket, Mustafiz has given 12 runs in 2 overs. The match is completely under Chennai's control so far. The Kolkata team is likely to suffer their first defeat today.

At last wait is over and Indian Premier League competition 22nd match has begun on crease and this match was played among Kolkata Knight Rider squad against Chennai Super Kings squad both these squads are top class and well performed in previous matches. Yes it is true that Kolkata Knight Rider squad was unable to display impressive performance in first inning batting and their inning is almost finished just few deliveries behind for play and only Kolkata Knight Rider squad successfully 135 scores off 19.4 overs which seem that Chennai Super Kings squad bowler will take a revenge of their previous lose in matches and they destroyed Kolkata Knight Rider squad batter with fantastic strength. Tushar Deshpande bowler wiped out 3 main and good batters of KKR squad in 4 overs and same Ravindra Jadeja also cleared out 3 batter wickets. This match now is so easy to get a victory and Chennai Super Kings squad also have a good and strong members in batting Inning. Now this match is surely one sided and now let's see how many overs Chennai Super Kings squad will achieve this defeating target.

[libert19]

I was expecting fireworks but such a lackluster inning from KKR, at 5 overs they were 50 runs, things went completely downhill after that, and they managed to make mere 137 runs by eof inning. Venky, Rinku, Iyer, Russel blindly swinging bat, and ball not coming to bat at all.

There is no way CSK can lose this one, and KKR will have lot to think after this match.

[tsaroz]

A small target set out by KKR against CSK. Would probably lead to first loss for KKR this season.
The game being played in Chennai, CSK won the toss and chose to field. Kolkata Knight Riders lost their first wicket on very first ball of the match. Sunil Narine, Shreyas Ayer and Angkrish Raghuvanshi tried to handle the inning but they kept on losing wicket and later order didn't worked. They had just 2 runs on the last  over.
138 itself is not an undefendable target for a T20 but is a small one in IPL standard. CSK would probably cruise through it with ease.

Having an experienced bowler in the squad is very important. And it reminded me of Mustafiz's performance today. Mustafiz gave only 22 runs in 4 overs. And picked up two wickets. But the important thing is that Mustafiz picked up two wickets with just 2 runs in the last over. If the bowler is not experienced enough, it is not possible to bowl well in the death overs.

Jadeja and Tushar's performance was also very good today. Kolkata's top order crumbled quickly today due to the good bowling of these two bowlers. Both Jadeja and Tushar took three wickets each.

The Kolkata team has given a small target of 138 runs. It is much more difficult to win such a small target. Chennai have some experienced batsmen in their squad. To collect 138 runs will not be difficult for Chennai.

Having a good bowler in the team gives the team some advantage, especially when there is extra pressure on the opposing batsmen. Due to which, the batsmen's performance changes greatly. Mostafizur is one of the best bowlers. We got similar things in the first innings today. He has also made a name for himself on the spin pitch. according to the spin pitch Ravindra Jadeja did the best. Became the lowest cost bowler in 4 overs. He brought the first wicket as a bowler in the team Tushar Deshpande. He augurs well for the team by returning opening batsman Salt.

It is not difficult to win against an experienced team on such a small target. Chennai Super Kings are the best in terms of win record. Chennai Super Kings have already reached a reliable position in the first 6 overs. Their collection is 66 in 7 overs. If they play like this, they will have a very easy win against Kolkata.

CSK and KKR might swap there positions on points table after this game. CSK will move to second position while KKR might be down graded to 3rd position. Nothing much from KKR batting tonight as they played full 20 overs but scored only 137 runs which is just a peanut in IPL type league.  In reply, CSK after 10 overs are 81/1 and need 57 more runs in just 60 balls. CSK just need to score run a ball to win this game.

Now this match is surely one sided and now let's see how many overs Chennai Super Kings squad will achieve this defeating target.

As we expected with Kolkata Knight Riders, they give results that are not the same, and today they also have to play well because according to Google, this pitch is much better for batsmen who batted first because according to the reports and Google, we judge that the team who batted first has more advantage on the pitch that’s why that team wins the match mostly.

But, in today’s match, we are not seeing this type of game by Kolkata Knight Riders. Don’t know why but they could have played better and till now, the match is not finished but for sure when you see this post, the match has been finished and result will be in front of you and most probably Chennai Super Kings will easily win this match.

Jadeja put some pressure on KKR by picking two wickets just after the powerplay. KKR players played slowly after that. They kept losing their wickets, and the pressure was always on them. Chennai bowlers did pretty well in the death overs, especially Mustafizur. Russell was really trying to hit the ball blindly, but the Fizz bowled brilliantly to restrict his hitting power. Even the most worthy player of this season, Mitchell Starc was surprised when he faced the first ball of Mustafizur today. CSK has chased the target easily.

The Kolkata Knight Riders made a good start in the power play,but the Jadeja spells the game to the new way.This was the unexpected one from the Kolkata team captain,because the strong support was the reason for the Chennai Super Kings.The first five wicket change the game completely,because the wicket of Sunil Narine had a huge impacts in today game.Because he had only scored 27 runs from the 20 delivery,the Narine was seems to be have some health issues like harm pain and it was the main cause for the Sunil to get into the dressing room with the less score to their team.This was the third win for CSK team in the home ground was the welcome one by the home ground fans.

CSK and KKR might swap there positions on points table after this game. CSK will move to second position while KKR might be down graded to 3rd position. Nothing much from KKR batting tonight as they played full 20 overs but scored only 137 runs which is just a peanut in IPL type league.  In reply, CSK after 10 overs are 81/1 and need 57 more runs in just 60 balls. CSK just need to score run a ball to win this game.

Still the KKR in the second position with their good run rate,you have to check the table again.Because the total game played by the each team and run rate will play the huge role in the table of the league.The run scored by the KKR is not seems like the team who had won the 3/3 matches in the league.They play like the test match and scored only 137 runs from the 120 balls.Really look like the game with each ball to score one runs,if the team KKR had score 170-190 runs,it was easy to defend for the CSK even it was their home ground.Mostly the home ground doesn’t important when the team made the good runs in their first half of the game.
