T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Mahdirakib]

Maxwell made 15 out of 6 which was nifty addition to the scoreboard but main thing where he helped was with bowling, first ball breakthrough and bowled at really good economy rate.

Just a little correction, Maxwell scored 16 runs from 5 balls. He was good with bowling as the pitch was helping the spinners. CSK spinners economy rate was good too (except Jadeja).

As expected, SRH has ended the group stage journey by being in top 2. Now they will have double chance to qualify for the final, I hope they will make it possible.

Rajasthan turned out to be a joke in the last leg of the IPL.

They were supposed to be on top but here they are at number 3 licking their wounds after losing 4 matches on the trot and 1 washed out with lame NRR. Pretty disappointing but they richly deserve it IMO.

Pakistan women vs England women. 3rd T20I

Another match and another loss. Pakistan women team have lost another T20 series and this time its a whitewash. England gave target of 176 only because of Danni Wyatt brilliant knock of 87 runs on just 48 balls. In reply just see the strike rate of Pakistani batters, both openers played with strike rate of run a ball. Pakistani team played full 20 overs and lost just 4 wickets, seems like Pakistani batters were interested in improving personal stats only not in winning the match.

I am very disappointed about the effort of Pakistan-W team not only today game but in all past games with England-W team as well West Indies-W team they lost game again and again. Today 3 rd game, England-W team won toss and their team have good opportunity to choose first bat or bowl and England-W team decided to give target. England-W team showed very brilliant effort in bat line and set comfortable target of 176 runs in 20 overs with losing all wickets. From Pakistan-W team side, few players performed very dull effort and bowled out for low runs and other players played good but their playing speed is very slow. Playing all overs, Pakistan-W team only succeeded to chase 142 runs. Opener batsman player many balls with low runs in my opinion, Pakistan-W team need to change their first opener batsman and also improved their batting skills these things will help in WODI series which will played after days with England-W team. Congratulations Pakistan-W team for losing this series with 3 lost

Netherlands vs Ireland in the second match of the Netherlands T20 tri-series. The 2nd match of the tri-series was a very exciting match. Both the teams fought hard in this match. In this match, the Netherlands team was defeated by 1 run against Ireland. In the first match of this tri-series we saw the Netherlands team perform brilliantly. But in the game of the second match, the players of the Netherlands team surrendered to the players of the Ireland team. But in this match both teams fought with their full strength. Congratulations to both teams for putting up such a tough match.

To be honest, Pakistan Women's team's performance really saddened me. I know England women's team is much stronger than Pakistan women's team. Even then I thought Pakistan Women's team would be able to win at least one match in the 3 match series. But Pakistan team lost in all three matches of T20 series. England set a small target of 145 runs in the second match. But in this match, Pakistan women team lost by the biggest margin.

Pakistan Women's team will play three more ODI matches during this tour. Looking at Pakistan's performance, it seems that Pakistan will lose all the matches as usual in the ODI series as well. The overall condition of this team is now very weak. In particular I would say Pakistan's batting order is very weak.

I think they way Ireland team performance brilliantly against paksitan especially at first T20 indicate how well they are improving Thier self and how well they are growing Thier structure in cricket world with time to time while compared to them Netherlands are spectacular they really give us big surprises in T20 World against several against top class teams like South Africa etc so you can't take any of them lightly because on thier day they will really give U a humiliating defeat. Anyway coming to scoreboard while balbarine unable to hold it long like they does against paksitan while compared to them Netherlands fought hard but due to some miss management of lower middle order they failed to get the required and thus lose they match

Performance of Pakistan Women's team is not favorable. It was already predictable that they would not be able to fight the England team but the fact that they would lose all 3 matches was unexpected by many. I found them a prospect in the first match but when they lost that match, I lost faith in them. We cannot expect anything good from a team that fails to chase down a small score while playing against them. But after winning the series, I thought that maybe they could see victory in the last match, but that was not possible either. All those who supported the Pakistan Women's team lost entirely.

When Ireland won the first T20I match from Pakistan so definitely they show their determination.
And yesterday the match was very interesting. Ireland made on 150 runs in 20 overs with 8 wickets loss. Netherlands was trying well. They were just near to the victory but unfortunately the kuch was favouring the Ireland team. Ireland won the match by one run only. This is showing that these two teams are almost equal in performance. Fionn Hand from Ireland and Tim Pringle from Netherlands are good they both collected 3 3 wickets. Overall match was interesting. Congratulations to Ireland team on their win.

You are right the yesterday match between Ireland and Netherlands was very exciting. We can see that both teams fought well with each other. When I saw the target given by Ireland I was thinking this is not a big target and Netherlands will easily chase the target and according to my mind they were playing well but at the end unfortunately they made only 149 runs in 20 overs. And we know that the target was 151. They really tried well but as yiu said luck was on Ireland side. And you mentioned two of the bowlers from both team. They both played well and collected 3,3 wickets. I hoe Ireland will continue this performance and I really hope that they will win this Tri Nation Series so let's see who will be the winner.

The Netherlands team tried hard in this match, but lost the game by just one run. Unfortunately, the Netherlands team did not perform well at the start of the game, and with the wicket being the mainstay, they fell short in this match. And the bowling performance of the Ireland team has been very good that's why they have to beat the strong team in the Netherlands team. If the duo of Edward and Van Beek had performed well, there would have been a chance to win as they had wickets at the end. However, at the last moment, there is a lot of pressure.

So another one gets abandoned, now at least i have favorites for both the qualifiers. Top two spots from KKR and SRH are rightfully deserved, whoever gets qualified from these two is fine for me, and RR rightfully deserves out of competition, so RCB must win against them in eliminator, which I feel there is good chance anyway.

If RCB manages win this season IPL, it'll be history making, though that's hard nut to crack against SRH/KKR, the teams which are overall better in both the departments bowling/batting than RCB who's largely dependent on batting.

The match between the Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders ended in a draw due to rain.  This helped sunrises Hyderabad to climb up the table on the 2nd spot given them advantage to play the qualifier match and if they lose, they can still have an eliminator match to come back, win and move to the finals. With no results, both Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders got 1 point each.

The final table for the top 4 positions is as below:-

Yesterday we enjoyed a breathtaking match between Ireland and Netherlands. Batting first in that match, Ireland scored only 150 runs in 20 overs, which is a limited number of targets for any team in T20Is. However, with this limited run target as the target of victory, the bowlers of the Ireland team bowled brilliantly.

Mark Adair and Fionn Hand were the best bowlers of the Ireland team. Mark Adair showed his excellent all-round skills with the bat and scored 49 runs off 24 balls and took two wickets with 34 runs in four overs with the ball. On the other hand Fionn Hand bowled four overs and picked up three wickets for just 18 runs. In the end, the Irish team managed to win by one run against the Netherlands in the second T20 match of the tri-series in a dramatic manner. Today again their second match is against Scotland i.e. the third match of tri-nation series.

KKR vs SRH tomorrow! This could possibly be the highest scoring contest in the entire season since both these teams have monsters who are capable of scoring at crazy high strike rates.

Wanted these two to square off properly in the league stages and watching them fight it out in the playoffs makes everything a whole lot sweeter. Hyped!

Pakistan women vs England women. 3rd T20I

Another match and another loss. Pakistan women team have lost another T20 series and this time its a whitewash.

In reply just see the strike rate of Pakistani batters, both openers played with strike rate of run a ball.

England women outstanding performance in this match winning by 34 runs and winning back-to-back three consecutive matches in this series. in the third match the Player of the Match is Danni Wyatt for his amazing batting performance scored 87 runs in a loss of just 48 balls, unfortunately missed his well-deserved century by a few runs short but helped his team to easily win this match easily.

Pakistan team could not win a single match in the series. And Pakistan lost all three matches because of their poor batting. In that match we saw erratic and poor batting from the batsmen of the Pakistan Women's team.

In the last match, England women's team set a target of 177 runs. A target of 177 runs in T20 format in women's cricket can be called a very big target. So after England Women's team set a target of 177 runs, I was sure that Pakistan Women's team would lose the match. Because in the previous match, Pakistan women's team lost all the wickets to collect only 79 runs. And so it was unimaginable that the batsmen of the Pakistan women's team would collect 177 runs in this match. Even then Pakistan women team lost 4 wickets and collected 142 runs. Danni Wyatt and Amy Jones perform well in the England Women's squad.

It's disappointing performance from Pakistan women team in T20, first they lost T20 series to West Indies 4-1 and they lost all three games in England. Pakistan has good cricket infrastructure and have decent men team but not much importance has been given to women team. PCB need to pay attention to domestic cricket of women team to avoid such results in future.

Rajasthan turned out to be a joke in the last leg of the IPL.

They were supposed to be on top but here they are at number 3 licking their wounds after losing 4 matches on the trot and 1 washed out with lame NRR. Pretty disappointing but they richly deserve it IMO.

Rajasthan, w,w,w,w,L,w,w,w,w,L,L,L,L,D
Rajasthan topped the points table with consecutive wins in the first four matches and in the fifth match Rajasthan Royals lost but they were still at the top of the points table. After the fifth spot, Rajasthan Royals went on to win four more matches in a row and then we assumed that Rajasthan Royals would go from unbeaten champions to the top of the points table. But in the last five matches, Rajasthan Royals performed very poorly and their position in the points table gradually changed and eventually Rajasthan Royals secured the playoffs from the third position. However, if Rajasthan Royals can perform well in the previous series, then this franchise team has enough merit to become the champion if there is a chance to reach the final.

If Ireland batsmen put in a little more effort and struggle more runs could have been scored.  Yes it was an interesting match.  And I am very impressed with Ireland's bowling.  When there were 2 overs at the end.  Netherlands had a chance to win it but their batsmen failed to meet their target and would lose the match by 1 run.If they could not prove good bowling they would have lost the match.  But his hard bowling and luck helped him win the match.  If Nederland's batsmen were a little faster, they could have won the match.  Because the difference was only 1 run.  But fate wanted something else.  If they play like this against Scotland, they can win the match.  And according to my estimation, Ireland will lose this match.  Because Scotland also does very well.  Therefore, it cannot be considered weak.  It can only tell the result in the end.Congratulations to Ireland on the win and it will be an even happier place if they play well against Scotland.

Now let's not forget the fact that Ireland is a full member, while both Scotland and Netherlands are associate members. If Ireland is struggling against the other two teams (with a full strength XI, where only Josh Little is missing), then it is bad news for them. Irish bowling looks out of sorts. I don't know how much change Josh Little is going to make, but the experienced bowlers such as Mark Adair and Barry McCarthy were wayward and expensive against the weak Dutch batting lineup.
