T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Minecache]

In Japan vs Mongolia 2nd T20 match, Japan team came out to bat and lost 7 wickets in 20 overs and set a target of 217 runs. Japan team batsman Sabaorish Ravichandran scored 69 runs in 39 balls. Kendel Fleming scored 32 runs in 17 balls. Mongolia team came out to bat and scored 12 runs in 8.2 overs.  I did not think that the Mongolia team will be all out by 12 runs. Japan team's bowling line was excellent in today's match.

Total three clashes of this competition was finished already and today second and third clash was completed among Mongolia sqaud against Japan squad. In all matches, Mongolia did not display good performance in any single clash and same as in today second match, Mongolia Squad just successfully achieved 12 scores and total defeating target which set by Japan squad was 217 scores. I did not expect that Mongolia displayed such a bad performance in this competition not only today match but also same kind of performance was displayed in previous first match and they successfully achieved few scores and lost all batter wickets. Kazuma Kato-Stafford bowler bowled total 3.7 overs against Mongolia batters and in these overs he picked up total 5 batters and showcased unbelievable strength. Third match was also finished but outcome was not came out because of bad weather.

Japan vs Mongolia
The last match between them did not have any results. But I think Mongolia still will not be able to make any kind of comeback in this series. It seems like Japan is definitely a lot better compared to them. And that’s what Japan is showing throughout the series so far. I think, who will still have the advantage. Like Japan is giving target of more than 200 and on the other hand Mongolia is getting all out only scoring 33 and 12. That is just not good enough and also shows the skill difference between both of these teams. This is just a beating being delivered by Japan to their opponent. I think the whole series is going to be one-sided.

lol. Today it was very close match between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe at Chattogram. The Africans fought hard, but in the end the Bangladeshis had the last laugh

once upon a time Zimbabwe was good team and a hard opposition against Bangladesh but now situation is changed. Bangladesh keep doing well and continuesly won 3 Matches at a row. Although Bangladesh won easily in first and second matches but this time in 3rd match, Zimbabwe was about to win. Bangladesh batting was well. Liton das is out of forum. So for nazmul shanto. But Towhid Hridoy(57) and Jaker Ali(44) done best in that match and total score was 165 runs. And when it came to Zimbabwe, they again started poor performance. Their top ordered batsman out with low runs. They lost 8th wickets at 91-8 runs. But then rest of bowlers made the match interesting. They started batting well and keep doing well and their final score was 156/9 runs where Faraz Akram (34) good runs. They could win but their top players waste many balls with low Stick rate. Otherwise maybe Zimbabwe could win this match but whatever congrats bd to win again

57th match of the Indian Premier League has started. Sunrisers Hyderabad vs LSG in today's match. In today's match, LSG won the toss and batted first, so far they have lost 4 wickets and collected 89 runs after playing 13.5 overs. LSG batting line is not very good in today's match. LSG batsmen are under a lot of pressure from Sunrisers Hyderabad bowlers. The LSG team is in a bit of a slump having lost 4 of their crucial wickets so far. Now I think that if the batsmen of the LSG team fail to turn the tide of the game by overcoming the pressure of the bowlers of Sunrisers Hyderabad, then the LSG team will be restricted to a very small score in this match today. Finally let's see how much LSG team can score in today's match.

Their batsmen did not perform well in the first 10 overs but in the next 10 overs they perform well and pick up their pace.  But their bowler did not work with hard work and struggle and in 10 overs they will complete the target and lose the match.  The run was not stop by his fielder.  SRH 2 batsmen complete the target of 165 and won the match.  Their batsmen play the match very well.  These batsmen scored 89 runs and one scored 78 runs.  Congratulations to them for the win and LSG should push their performance to do well in the next matches.If their bats had played their pace even slowly but with good performance they could have won the match.  But their batsmen used their momentum to complete their target in 60 balls.  These 2 batsmen took everyone by surprise.  If they did not show such performance they could have lost the match but both support each other and play and won the match.

Lucknow Super Giants won the toss and decided to bat but the Sunrisers Hyderabad batsmen were aggressive from the start due to which the Lucknow Super Giants batsmen were under a lot of pressure as they lost wickets early on. The way Lucknow Super Giants are batting it seems that if they play well, Sunrise might be able to set a target of 180 runs. Who is Hyderabad?  If Sunrise Hyderabad bowlers can restrict Lucknow Super Giants to 180 runs then Sunrise Hyderabad will not have much problem to win today's match. As Sunrise Hyderabad's batting line-up is very strong, 180 runs will not be a big score for them, so they must give Lucknow Super Giants a big target. How many runs can Lucknow Super Giants target Sunrise Hyderabad in today's match?

You thought Abhishek Sharma and Head entered the field as the opening batsmen and these two batsmen performed very well and ensured victory in the power play. Batting so aggressively, it was by no means easy to break down the partnership of these two players. Abhishek Sharma scored 75 runs in 28 balls, Head scored 89 runs in 30 balls. They beat any bowler to win this match today, Lucknow super giants team did not have a good bowling performance. Yash Thakur has been the worst performer as he has not been able to exert any pressure on the bowling side.

First of all Lucknow Super Giants batting wasn't good. They didn't make enough runs to win this match but when you look on the performance of Sunrisers Hyderabad players that will show that how should be the batting line of a team. They didn't lose any wicket and easily chased the target. Both players Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head played really well. LSG bowlers did not able to break the first partnership. Travis Head made 89 runs. And Abhishek Sharma made 75 runs. And Sunrisers Hyderabad won the match without any loss of any wicket. Here one more thing interested. Means SRH chased the target with in 10 overs which was amazing. Congratulations to SRH winning.

What a great performance by Sunrisers Hyderabad. I was not expecting that they will chase the target with first partnership and with in 10 overs. Travis Head played really well. And Abhishek Sharma was also good. They both were playing outstanding and helping each other and also helping the team to win. First Lucknow Super Giants made 165 runs which was not a good target according to the match situation. And bowling of LSG was also not good. They gave a chance to Travis to make 89 runs on 30 balls. By the way match was really exciting. Congratulations to SRH for winning the match.

What an incredible chase! Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma formed a powerful duo, showing remarkable hitting skills as they successfully chased the target in under 10 overs. Lucknow's bowling performance left their fans disappointed. It was puzzling to see Lucknow, known for their strong finishers, opting to bat first against Hyderabad, who boast a formidable batting lineup. This season, i'm wondering that bowlers are being paid for their such stupid performance. Along with questionable captaincy decisions, Lucknow's bowling and dropped catches only strengthened their opponents' position.

Today we have RCB vs PBKS, I thought it's a dead rubber game but apparently from what commentator said yesterday it's only MI that is out from play-offs race, so are these two still having chance?

MI already eliminated from Playoff..
PBKS Vs RCB, If Punjab Kings win, they might have some chance. If defeated then Punjab Kings will have no chance.
If Royal Challengers Bangalore win then they will have some chances but if they lose they will have no chance.
But today will surely be a heart attack match for both teams and I consider both teams as favorites in this match.

Today's match will be a highly contested match between Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Punjab Kings, but whichever team wins this match basically has no place to enter the qualifiers. Because they have won four matches so far, even if they win all the matches they will participate in now, they will not be able to participate in the qualifiers.  But if this match is held today, Royal Challengers Bangalore will definitely win, as they have experienced batsmen and bowlers who always perform aggressively.  Virat Kohli and Mohammad Siraj and there are other batsmen, if they perform well I think Royal Challengers team will win.

[synchronym]

Today's match between Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Punjab Kings is equally important for both teams, but whichever team wins today, neither team will qualify for the qualifiers. However, Royal Challengers Bangalore did not perform well in the beginning of the IPL. But of late they are performing very well. So it is expected that RCB will have a chance to win today's match against Punjab Kings if they can perform well. I support Royal Challengers Bangalore only for Virat Kohli. Today's match we can certainly enjoy some great short from the bat of Virat Kohli. I hope that today's match RCB will perform well and win against Punjab Kings. Let's see how well RCB can perform against Punjab Kings in today's match.

Both these teams have 8 points + a low RR and are left with only 3 matches, at best one of em could get 6 points if one manages to win its remaining matches. It's an eliminator for both participants.

Not to mention, run rate is also a critical ingredient for the playoff so I'd say less than a 5% chance. Cricket is a weird and funny game so anything could happen but  I'd term it as a dead rubber.

In this season of the IPL, a good match can mean a huge boost in terms of the net run rate. During yesterday's match, Sunrisers Hyderabad originally had a negative run rate to start with (-0.076 or something near). After they managed to demolish the Lucknow Super Giants, they ended up with a NRR of +0.406 and moved to the 3rd spot in the points table. So I would say that things are quite unpredictable at the moment. But honestly I don't expect RCB, PBKS, MI and GT to qualify for the playoffs.

After the final of the ODI World Cup 2023, Travis Head is doing amazing stuff for the Australia with his current form in IPL is giving him amazing success with this most chances he is going to be important in coming years as well which is going to be good for him in yesterday game we have good control from the SRH from the start as their bowlers were at the target and never allow them to settle in their inning specially Bhuvneshwar Kumar was at the top of game with his impressive bowling.

In reply, we have Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma in full control as both hit 14 sixes and complete their chase in just 58 balls which is huge booster for them and their chances for going into playoffs with this performance now they are having good increase of their NRR which is also important for the having spot into last four in case of having points on level with other teams.

Sure why not if the RCB bowler restricts Punjab under 49 (RCB's lowest score xD) and chase down the target within 3-4 overs then there is some possibility lol.

Same for Punjab and these folks need to repeat their performance in the remaining matches as well. TBH it's a fool's errand if you ask me. MI knocked out already.

Not very surprised with the developments. Mumbai Indians used to be one of the strongest sides in the history of Indian Premier League. Just one stupid move and the entire team disintegrated. What was the point in replacing Rohit Sharma with Harddick Pandya? Rohit was performing amazingly well and all of a sudden they disrupt the equilibrium by importing Pandya from the Gujarat Titans. Pandya do have powerful backers though, both in the IPL and in the Indian national team.

RCB's  net run rate is 0.049 and Punjab Kings' run rate is 0.187. So they have no chance of qualify. If the RCB team could have performed a little better in the beginning, the way they are performing at the end of the IPL, if they could have played well in the beginning with this confidence, if they could have won two matches, then surely RCB had a chance to qualify. But the current IPL matches are very exciting as every team is baiting each other with their great performances so it is expected that Punjab Kings and RCB will not make the qualifiers. However, yesterday's match was won by Sunrise Hyderabad with excellent bowling and excellent batting, due to which they are at 3rd position in the points table.

As the first team of the 2024 Indian Premier League, Mumbai Indians has left this year's IPL. Mumbai Indians have been one of the strongest teams in IPL history but we have seen their sudden decline this year. Basically, one of the reasons for their decline in rhythm is Rohit Sharma's sudden departure from the captaincy and Hardik Pandia's captaincy. When Rohit Sharma was the captain of the Mumbai Indians team, he managed the team quite well but when Hardik pandia was given the responsibility of the team, he did not manage the team well. Due to which Mumbai Indians have faced failure in one match after another and as a result they have damaged their reputation by leaving the tournament first.

Maybe next year Mumbai Indians will pick the right team and play right, we can only hope for them now. If the leader is right then the disciples are also rightly guided. Mumbai Indians currently needs a proper leader or captain to lead his team properly.

[Haunebu]

Battle of the losers(RCB vs Punjab) underway. Both teams are already out of the playoffs race realistically in my honest opinion, but miracles cannot be ruled out since this is the IPL after all.

Am expecting Punjab to win this one since they have been bouncing back randomly and I feel that they will bounce back in this one.

[libert19]

Imagine the scenario, RCB wins this match, and makes it to play-offs somehow and then goes on to win the trophy too. This is very filmy scenario but it would be history making for sure.

Sure why not if the RCB bowler restricts Punjab under 49 (RCB's lowest score xD) and chase down the target within 3-4 overs then there is some possibility lol.

MI management likely did it looking at Rohit's age, he's now 37, how many more years you expect him to play? While Hardik is 30 years of age, he can stay in MI for close to a decade.

Although, MI failed miserably this season, I feel they will be just fine in long term.
