T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[JSRAW]

Guess Pant read the criticism of his inning from the last game against SRH and tried to make ammends for that.
 

Well, the selectors' meetup is scheduled in the next couple of days so he had to show the intent and carry his team.

What happened to Mohit Sharma today? He is well regarded as a depth over specialist, but today he returned figures of 4-0-73-0.

He's good but overall he was having a bad day at work and last over made it worse when Pant just threw a kitchen sink and luckily connected the last 4 balls.

Pant has performed well as the only attacking batsman in the Delhi Capitals team. He scored 88 runs off 43 balls.  But because of his good performance, Delhi Capitals won the match, Mukesh Kumar was most responsible for the bowling in most of the matches. As per his performance Delhi Capitals team got the only win, Gujarat Titans team lost under bowling pressure at the last minute.

Of course Rishabh Pant played really well. He was a good attacker in yesterday match who made 88 runs. In these 88 runs he hit 8 sixes which was amazing. On the other hand I appreciate the batting of Axar Patel he was also good he made 66 runs. These two players are the cause of winning of Delhi Capital.
By the way Gujarat Titans also tried well. I really appreciate them too. Because they just lost the match by 5 runs. Means they tried really well but unfortunately they didn't chase the target.

Yes you are right Rishabh Pant did really well this match. He hit 8 sixes and scored 88 runs in an aggressive way which helped Delhi Capitals to win. Axar Patel also did a good job by scoring 66 runs. Both players played a big part in their team victory.
Gujarat Titans played well and almost won by coming close to target but they fell short by just 5 runs. Rishabh Pant and Axar Patel were key players in this match. Both teams showed skill and determination but Delhi Capitals Pant and Patel made biggest impact and helped their team to win the match.

Pakistan vs New Zealand 4th T20I

4th T20I between Pakistan and Newzealand will be played today at Lahore. Series is levelled after New Zealand beat Pakistan comprehensively in 3rd T20I. Pakistan really need to work hard to save this series after shocking defeat in 3rd T20I. The side winning today's game will save the series for itself. Before this series everyone was predicting that it will be an easy win for Pakistan but now it looks like it will be an interesting contest between both teams.

Till the moment David Miller was there, still there was hope for Gujarat Titans. However, once he got out it was all over for them. Rashid Khan and Sai Kishore tried hard, but in vain.

There was always hope cause Rashid was there, he's pure finisher, dragging the game till very last ball is not called vain efforts.

What happened to Mohit Sharma today? He is well regarded as a depth over specialist, but today he returned figures of 4-0-73-0. And that was the single-most reason why Gujarat lost the match. Towards the end Rishabh Pant and Tristan Stubbs simply butchered him

Mohit  Sharma was indeed disappointing.


On a side note, Sudarshan is not a six hitter, so he shouldn't be throwing his wicket away trying to hit those. He does very well without sixes.

[Haunebu]

Porel dropping Rashid almost cost DC the game which is why catches usually win matches. DC is clearly missing Ishant since Nortje has been horrendous in this particular season based on what I observed. DC barely won as expected.

Also, we have a huge match today between SRH and RCB and we could possibly see some crazy fireworks once again. Let's see what happens.

Pakistan vs New Zealand 4th T20I

Yes the series is now tied. I really missed Muhammad Amir in the the last match. I hope Pakistan will do best in this match. I hope Pakistan will win the two matches which are remaining so they will win the series. These are the warm up matches for T20I world cup. And especially I am thinking that Muhammad Amir will do his best in up coming ICC World Cup.

If we talk about today match so this is really hard to predict that which team will exactly win this match. Because both have played well in the last matches. My best wishes are with Pakistan.

Sunrise Hyderabad vs Royal Challengers Bangalore

Today we will see another Indian Premier League match taking place at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Hyderabad where Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers face off against each other. The ground that will be played today is Sunrise Hyderabad's own home ground. Sunrisers Hyderabad team is already very strong even they have scored many runs against many teams and won few matches. Today we may get a stronger proof of their strength because today's match will be at their own ground which will give them more confidence. Royal Challengers Bangaluru, on the other hand, may have lost their confidence as they lost. The Royal Challengers Bangaluru team's form seems unlikely to make it to the Super Four.

Pakistan vs New Zealand 4th T20I

4th T20I between Pakistan and Newzealand will be played today at Lahore. Series is levelled after New Zealand beat Pakistan comprehensively in 3rd T20I. Pakistan really need to work hard to save this series after shocking defeat in 3rd T20I. The side winning today's game will save the series for itself. Before this series everyone was predicting that it will be an easy win for Pakistan but now it looks like it will be an interesting contest between both teams.

You are right, New Zealand played well in Third T20 match and chase the huge target very easily. Pakistan give very disappointing bowling performance in last match and they didn't defend the 179 runs. i hope in this match Muhammad amir will played instead of Abbas Afridi. Abbas Afridi is a good bowler who picked up 2 wickets in last match but Muhammad Amir is top class bowler. in this if Pakistan didn't bowl well then New Zealand will win this match.

Same here! I really felt the absence of Muhammad Amir in the last match because Pakistani bowlers didn't do well against New Zealand batsmen. The good news is that Amir is back for the 4th T20 match against New Zealand. It's a smart move by Pakistan's management to react quickly, and this decision could help them not only win todays match but also win the home series.
Amir is familiar with West Indies conditions. He has played in the CPL and performed brilliantly there for the last three years. It's safe to say that Amir will give his best in the upcoming ICC World Cup.

4th T20I between Pakistan and Newzealand will be played today at Lahore. Series is levelled after New Zealand beat Pakistan comprehensively in 3rd T20I. Pakistan really need to work hard to save this series after shocking defeat in 3rd T20I. The side winning today's game will save the series for itself. Before this series everyone was predicting that it will be an easy win for Pakistan but now it looks like it will be an interesting contest between both teams.

I agree with you because the first t20 match of New Zealand vs Pakistan was abandoned due to rain and in the second t20 match Pakistan defeated New Zealand and in the third t20 match New Zealand young players performed very well. Pakistan team lost the match to New Zealand by a huge margin. So it is really difficult to predict which team will win the fourth T20 match of Pakistan vs New Zealand. If New Zealand's young players can perform well against Pakistan in today's match, New Zealand can definitely win against Pakistan. But New Zealand vs Pakistan today match will be very competitive as both teams will want to secure the series with their best performance. Let's see in the end which team will perform well and win today's match and secure the series immediately.

RCB won the toss and decided to bat first, now there is bit less excitement about this match. SRH better not turn out like SA in ODI world cup where they were good at giving huge totals while batting first but sucked at chasing even small ones.

RCB won the toss and decided to bat first, now there is bit less excitement about this match. SRH better not turn out like SA in ODI world cup where they were good at giving huge totals while batting first but sucked at chasing even small ones.

If we were to watch Sunrise Hyderabad's first batting of today's match, surely the Sunrise Hyderabad batsmen would have been on a batting spree to see how much RCB can use the decision to bat first to win the toss. Because RCB is not performing so well in this IPL let's see how well RCB can perform batting first because the bowling line is not that good than the batting line of RCB so if Sunrise wants to win RCB match against Hyderabad then they must score 200 plus. 200 plus The target of runs should be given above because the batting line of Sunrise Hyderabad is very strong. Sunrise Hyderabad has the record of winning the match by scoring more than 200 runs.

Neutrals wanted to see another massacre, sad life moment as SRH lost the toss lol

I wonder if RCB were afraid of chasing another 250+ total and it made them opt for the batting first. Your bowlers won't go for 250+ runs if your batters get bundled up within the 200 runs mark first. 

[Sithara007]

A big sigh of relief from the Royal Challengers Bengaluru camp. They have won the toss, and quite predictably chose to bat first. In this way, they can at least delay the inevitable - thrashing of their bowlers by SRH batsmen including Travis Head, Aiden Markram, Abhishek Sharma, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Heinrich Klaasen. BTW, I am happy that SRH included Thangarasu Natarajan in their playing XI. He did an amazing job during the last match (4/19 vs Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium). 

[synchronym]

rcb won the toss and decided to bat but RCB opener batsmen have to bat responsibly because if they want to win the match against Sunrise Hyderabad in today's match then RCB must bat responsibly against Sunrise Hyderabad otherwise it will never be possible to win the match against Sunrise Hyderabad. Because Sunrise Hyderabad's batting line is very strong, if Sunrise Hyderabad's batsmen start batting first, then they will go on a batting rampage, so RCB must give a big target against them. But it is really difficult for RCB to win today's match because their opponent is Sunrise Hyderabad it will be really difficult for RCB to win the match against them but since cricket is a game of uncertainty it is really difficult to predict which team will win but of course if responsible batting in today's match.  

[Sithara007]

It doesn't matter whether they are batting first or second. Royal Challengers Bangalore are struggling out there, with Virat Kohli rock solid at the other end. Faf du Plessis and Will Jacks are back in pavilion, while Rajat Patidar has come to the crease to provide company to Virat Kohli. Mayank Markande has so far done a great job for SRH, while their top wicket taker (Natarajan) took out the dangerous du Plessis. From what I can see, SRH are about to win this match by a big margin.

Pakistan vs New Zealand 4th T20I

4th T20I between Pakistan and Newzealand will be played today at Lahore. Series is levelled after New Zealand beat Pakistan comprehensively in 3rd T20I. Pakistan really need to work hard to save this series after shocking defeat in 3rd T20I. The side winning today's game will save the series for itself. Before this series everyone was predicting that it will be an easy win for Pakistan but now it looks like it will be an interesting contest between both teams.

Pakistan won the toss and chose to bowl first which could be a nice decision according to me and the conditions.  Just because today’s surface is nice for batsmen and spinners as you can see in the pitch report where Pakistani famous commentator Urooj Mumtaz said that today the ball would nicely come to the bat which would be the advantage for the batsmen.

However, I think that pitch doesn’t have too much impact on the game because it is simple that the team who performed well would win the match. This is a simple math. After a few moments, we are likely to see Muhammad Amir, Abbas Afridi, bowling.

Anyways everyone will miss Rizwan in this match as he won't be playing in this series.

Rizwan to miss remainder of New Zealand T20Is with hamstring injury

In the fourth T20I between Pakistan vs New Zealand, Pakistan won the toss and elected to bowl first. New Zealand openers Tom Blundell and Tim Robinson got off to a great start but Tom Blundell could not make it big and was dismissed for 28 off 15 balls. Of course, Pakistan will try to win today's match for New Zealand, so if they want to win the match against Pakistan, they will have to bat responsibly and if they can, they can win the match. The current score of the New Zealand team is 62 runs for 1 wicket in 7 overs. The current state of play of New Zealand team seems that if New Zealand post  batsmen can bat responsibly then maybe they can give Pakistan 180 if they can give Pakistan 180 and control then New Zealand have more chances to go against Pakistan.

[WatChe]

The 4th T20I between New Zealand and Pakistan is underway.  Pakistan after winning the toss decided to bowl and New Zealand openers are on fire. After 5 overs New Zealand score is 56 and they have lost just one wicket of Tom Blundell. If New Zealand keep moving like that then they will score around 180 which will be a competitive target. Pakistan bowlers need to pick wickets to stop New Zealand from scoring runs.
