T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[ThemePen]

Pakistani team did deserve to qualify in super 8 teams. It should be out of the World Cup because USA team is playing brilliant,they won two matches and they played 2 matches. I think India  and USA will qualify for super eight. Pakistani team disappointed their fans ,the score was not big and they have to single and double to win this match. Indian team played very bad but Bumrah and Arshdeep did good bowling. The whole credit goes to Bumrah because if Arshdeep bowl in 2nd last overs ,that match would be towards Pakistani team but Rohit Sharma took excellent work from Bumrah and Bumrah completed the whole task .  Now , Pakistani Captain should be out and there should be another one ,how many times we will see the same process. Same team ,same mistakes.

Exactly you are right. USA and India will qualify for the super 8 round and they deserve it.
By the way I watched the whole match yesterday. And I appreciate bowlers from both sides. Batting was not strong. But bowling was very strong of both teams. By the way Pakistani team was fighting very well but unfortunately the luck was not favoring them. Basically Pakistani batsmen played very slowly. They were managing the run rate but they forgot that India has some good bowlers who can stop the score. By the way Congratulations to India.

Pakistan team was under heavy Indian bowling pressure in this game, due to which they came at the last minute and lost by six runs. Mohammad Rizwan in particular scored 31 runs off 44 balls, although he performed well as an opening batsman but was far behind in terms of runs. If he could have performed a little bit better then surely Pakistan team could have come in the last minute to win, like Naseem Shah he has performed well enough but unfortunately he could not hit the boundary in the last ball. 
If Osman Khan, Imad Asim, Mohammad Rizwan had performed this well, there would have been a chance to win. Because the margin of victory was a small margin of 6 runs, but the players of the Indian team did not perform well in terms of batting, but they performed well in terms of bowling.

Unfortunate for the Pakistan team to lose against India with another small margin. Impressive effort from Pakistani team limiting India to 119 runs. Pakistan should have played a bit aggressive from the start to achieve the target sooner. Most of the time, Pakistan were looking to win it easily but as they lost 5th, 6th and 7th wickets in quick intervals, the lower order were not able to bat. This loss might have eliminated Pakistan from the tournament as it's just low probability on conditions.
On another match, Scotland beat Namibia which have increased their chances to Super 8 and lowered the chances of England.

Pakistan team failed to meet the small run target against India though a failure for Pakistan. India scored 119 runs in the match and many thought that the match would go in Pakistan's favor and they would succeed in winning the match. But we saw that they did not win by 113 runs but lost such poor performance of Pakistan team it really disappointed the audience. Although we have seen that Pakistan team lost with USA and they have lost two in a row so maybe they will not qualify for T20 World Cup next round. No one expected such a bad performance from Pakistan team, of course Pakistan is a strong team but they are currently performing very badly. A win in this match would have given them a chance to win the next round but they will definitely be out of the T20I as they have lost two consecutive matches without winning one. However Pakistan's bowling performance was somewhat good but batting performance was very poor due to which they lost.

Instead of doing military training [1], Pakistan team should have done something simple like, practice taking catches, that'd been miles more fruitful.

As obvious from last two games, this training was fruitless and they kept dropping easy catches.

If there is an ODI or T20 match between India and Pakistan, we have no shortage of interest in that match, but as far as I can see, I have not seen a match so far in which India and Pakistan have participated and either team has been able to score 155 plus runs. A group of these two teams can score a maximum of 155 to 160 runs in 120 balls so when do we get excitement here. Yesterday Pakistan managed to keep India within 120 runs but Pakistan could not chase down the target of 120 runs to win here whose failure will you highlight.

The bowlers bowled a total of 120 legal deliveries where they took ten wickets while restricting India to 120 runs. Still why Pakistan could not start well there and win this match.  The batting of the Pakistani batsmen looked like they might not have been associated with cricket for a few years. Being such a professional team and playing like an amateur is never acceptable. Very likely if I am not mistaken Pakistan's equation to go to the next round is very difficult where they have to win their next two matches as well as looking at other teams.

An inspiring win moves India to the top spot in Group A. India is fortunate to have a rare talent like Jasprit Bumrah! Chasing 120 was easy. Unfortunately, the Pakistan team lacks someone like Bumrah, who snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. In such matches, anyone could win. Big congratulations to Team India for the thrilling win! However, the Indian batting lineup seemed a bit nervous against the Pakistani bowlers. Having played here before, a score of 160/170 should be very achievable for this Indian team if they bat sensibly.

Pakistan give very disappointing batting performance  and lost the match by few runs. Usman khan, ifthikar Ahmad and Imad Wasim are responsible for this shameful defeat against India. The Player of the Match is Jasprit Bumrah for his outstanding bowling match winning performance picked 3 important wickets by just giving only 14 runs and helped India to win the match. Pakistan's middle order was poorly performed and didn't chase down a low target. I think the Pakistan Cricket Board should replace this nonsense player with young talented players. now Pakistan team qualifying the Super Eight round is quite difficult because India and the United States already won their first 2 matches in this World Cup

It's Pakistan team personsonal problems how they want to practice but still results are not coming as per the expectations.

Marcus Stoinis played a splendid innings of 67 runs in only 36 balls and also took three wickets. I think he single handedly took the Australian team to the victory. Batting first Australian team scored 164 runs with 5 wickets down. David Warner  started the innings and made a half century. Travis Head  and Mitchell Marsh weren’t able to score big but it was Stoinis innings that helped Aussies to make a respectable score.

Oman did not look comfortable in the chase and lost too many early wickets. The lower middle order batsmen like Ayaan Khan  and Mehran Khan tried to resists the Aussie bowlers but it was too late. Also Oman team could not match the performance of the high profile Australian team and lost the match. This was the expected result.

India won only because of good bowling by their bowlers. At the end of 10 overs, India's collection was 81 runs with the loss of 3 wickets. Indian batsmen got off to a good start. I was looking forward to seeing a large collection. But in the next 10 overs, India could not even collect 40 runs. India's innings stopped at just 119 runs. Such batting was not at all expected from an experienced squad like India. Because India is fighting to win this year's World Cup title. They should bat better.

Although the Indian batsmen could not bat well, the bowlers bowled well in this match. Bumrah and Siraj's bowling in particular was very controlled. Siraj failed to take any wicket but conceded only 19 runs in 4 overs. Hardik Pandya also took both wickets with 24 runs in 4 overs. On the other hand, none other than Rizwan could bat well in the Pakistan squad.

Heavy pressure! Actually, there was no pressure on Pakistan batsmen as the target was small. They intentionally took the pressure by playing slowly. If India was batting in the second innings in such low target, then they would have easily won the match within 16 overs. Rizwan performance was worse there. It was a T20 match, not a test or ODI. I'm wondering why are you addressing his performance as 'well as an opener' while his strike rate is around 70 after facing 44 balls.

The Pakistan team put in extra effort and the focus shifted away from the game, as this match between India and Pakistan was very easy for the Pakistan team to win.  They performed slowly from the start and faced huge pressure at the last minute. You can certainly understand this by watching Mohammad Rizwan's batting performance, scoring 31 runs off 44 balls. There is a massive deficit here, the Pakistan team losing by a margin of just six runs, that certainly remains a question.

[Popkon6]

Today's Bangladesh vs South Africa will be a highly contested game, South Africa is relatively stronger in today's game. Because the squad of South Africa team has many good and experienced players and aggressive batting, but comparatively Bangladesh team has important batsmen but they are not performing well this season. Bangladesh team captain Nazmul Hasan Shanto is not able to show good enough intelligence in the matches this season, captain he must always be fresh. But to me he failed to control the team, but wait till the end of the game to win which team can win.

So disappointing scene was created yesterday I think that Pakistan team will easy win game because their team stopped India team to low runs 119 and this target was not very big and tough to chase and this was the task to such a great and brilliant team Pakistan. But Pakistan team did not play well and after all their no high pressure of big target and runs but their batsman played very poor inning in last 6 to 7 overs Pakistan team only scored 40 runs. Almost first 10 overs, their batsman is going very great but after losing wicket of I.Wasim next batsman scored few runs only. M .Rizwan was only player who played with full spirit and try to win this game and he also made 31 runs in 44 runs balls and he hitted one 4s and one 6s.  Why this happened again and again why Pakistan team did not do something new. At last wicket, Naseem hitted two boundaries but all overs batted and lost game by 6 runs.

I don't know why teams such as Pakistan fails to understand the fact that the pitches in this tournament are not that friendly for batting. A target of 119 would mean a cakewalk at the Wankhede or the Eden Gardens. But that is not the case at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium. They were 57/1 after 10 overs, with Usman Khan and Mohammad Rizwan at the crease. Ideally from this point they should have scored 6-7 runs per over while being cautious. But then Jasprit Bumrah had some other plans.

There is a little more excitement when there is an India Pakistan match. Yesterday when the pre-match rain started I think all the fans were disappointed that the expected match may not happen? But even if nothing happened about playing the match Pakistan fans were disappointed. Even if they restricted India for low score they could not secure their win. It is not only the Pakistan fans but the cricket lovers of the whole world could not accept this defeat. However, for the Indian fans, a win seemed unlikely. It is very easy to differentiate between how Pakistan was before the last T20 World Cup and what they are at the moment. I don't know how Pakistanis are taking their loss. Although there are losers in the game, some defeats are not easy to accept.

Both country fans were excited to see the match but Pakistani fans do not expected that kind of match because Pakistani team played very bad and this kind of performance is not accepted by fans . That team played final against Australia in the last T20 World Cup but lose against USA . That is big lose and that team could not score only 120 runs and lose the match by 6 runs.That is funny and I think most of the batters should be out of the team and if they play well ,then they should in the next matches . Otherwise, Pakistani selectors should give chance to new players and Imad Wasim and Shadab khan should be out of the game because Shadab is only a good fielder ,as a batsman and bowler his performance is zero.

I don't think Rizwan alone can be blamed here, you can also given credit to Shadab Khan, Iftikar Ahmed, Imad Wasid — they all played poor. Look at Nasim Shah at the end, he got two boundaries in 4 balls, had early batters showed similar intent and did not get into their shells, Pakistan would have won the game which was already theirs.

If you are supporting Pakistan then do not lose hope as it is not the end yet as this is not the end for Pakistan in this series.

Pakistan lost the match against India too but still there is a chance for the Pakistan team to come back in the World Cup. They just have to win their remaining matches and against Canada, they must have to win with 50 runs or by 8 wickets then the Pakistan team may qualify for the World Cup next round but still, the story has not been finished.

Now there are some other conditions too that need to be fulfilled for Pakistan qualification. India will win their all matches remaining and for sure India wins it because their next two matches play with Canada and USA or the USA will in their all matches and for sure, it will not likely to happen.

I think at yesterday’s match they gave chance to Iftikhar Ahmed after powerplay to bowl was some unique type of decision because they had Shadab Khan and Imad Wasim too in options but still Babar Azam was going with Iftikhar Ahmed.

But from some where, it helped to the Pakistan team, because before one over from that over, the game was stable in the favor of India and not too much runs were made at Iftikhar's over so eventually that was not bad decision to give him over, but still that was shocking. So, now Pakistan has very hard work for this victory and the team of Pakistan deserves to win as they only had to chase 120 runs but once again their batting wasn't up to the mark.

Old debate, simple answer: Pakistan's batting just not very good
