T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Smack That Ace]

Namibia vs Australia
That was a short match with Namibia being all out making 72 in 17 overs. Australia chasing the target of 73 completed it in 5.4 overs losing a wicket. Australia surely is one of the favorite for the cup and Namibia is lucky to meet them in this platform.

That was looking a one sided match and Australia proved it. First of all Australia won the toss and chose to bowl first and they bowled excellently. I appreciate the bowling of Adam Zampa who collected 4 wickets. And at the end Australia restricted Namibia at 72 runs and all team of Namibia got out. And then Australia started their turn and they played really and they lost only one wicket and they chased the target in 5.4 overs. And the target was not high Namibia gave only 73 runs target and Australia chased it easily. Congratulations to Australia for this massive win against Namibia.

This was the most one-sided match of this World Cup. Several new teams are playing in this year's World Cup. But every team is trying to do better. And the smaller teams are also fighting hard against the bigger teams. Although the Oman team is comparatively very weak, this team is also trying hard to do well. But I was really disappointed with Namibia's performance.

I don't expect the Namibian batsmen to do well against the experienced Australian bowlers. Namibia managed just 72 runs, and that's what we expected. But I expected a bit better bowling from the Namibian bowlers as the pitch was bowling friendly. Australia team scored 74 runs in just 5.4 overs losing only one wicket. Warner scored 20 runs off 8 balls, Travis Head scored 34 runs off 17 balls and Mitchell Marsh scored 18 runs off 9 balls.

But USA team is looking in good form and they are playing the matches in the home ground and they have best opportunity to win this match . But if they lose the match , they should strong their average to qualify for first 8 teams.  Pakistani is not eligible to qualify for super 8 because their performance is bad and We all want Pakistani team should be in the super 8 because through which World Cup will be more enjoyable and Pakistani team is more dangerous team than any of the team of the World because they can do anything at any time. When we think Pakistani team will lose the match, they gave excellent performance and many times we thinked that Pakistani team will win this match easily but Pakistani team lose the match due to very bad performance. Same thing happened against USA and India.

I also think USA team has strong chance of winning especially since they are playing on their home ground. However if they lose they need to improve their average to qualify for top 8 teams. Unfortunately Pakistan performance has been disappointing and they are unlikely to make it to super 8 round. It is shame because Pakistan has talented team that can be unpredictable and dangerous. They have history of surprising us with their performances sometimes they exceed expectations and sometimes they fall short. It is frustrating because they have potential to be  strong contender but their inconsistency holds them back. I hope they will turn their performance around and make it to super 8 round as it would make the World Cup more exciting. But chances are very low at this time.

Do you really think USA has a chance to win against India? I don't think so. India is a very strong and experienced team. Pakistan vs India match was very competitive. Even then the Indian team was able to defeat Pakistan. Team USA performed well against Pakistan and won. But I don't see the possibility of USA winning against India either.

USA played well in both matches. But USA team will definitely lose against India. Both India's batting and bowling orders are very strong. USA batsmen will not be able to stay at the crease for long against the Indian bowlers.

Namibia vs Australia
That was a short match with Namibia being all out making 72 in 17 overs. Australia chasing the target of 73 completed it in 5.4 overs losing a wicket. Australia surely is one of the favorite for the cup and Namibia is lucky to meet them in this platform.

The Namibian team lost the toss and went into bat, losing wickets at the start and under a lot of pressure. From there, no batsman could bat responsibly due to which the Namibia team was all out for only 72 runs. Gerhard Erasmus scored the highest runs for the Namibia team. Gerhard Erasmus was out with 36 runs off 43 balls. Coming down to bat against the target of 73 runs given by the Namibia team, the Australian team batted very responsibly and easily won against the Namibia team. Congratulations to Australia for this great win.

Australia Outstanding performance in this match winning by a huge 9 wickets and more than fourteen remaining. Australian team chased down the small target of 74 runs in just a loss of single wickets and the big thing is that they chased this target in powerplay. The man of the Match is Adam Zampa for his amazing bowling performance picked 4 important wickets by just giving 12 runs only in his bowling spell. After winning this match Australia confirm their seat for the Super Eight round. I think in group B Australia and Scotland will qualify for the Super Eight next round of the World Cup. England team is in trouble after losing one match and also tying one match their chances of qualifying are very slim.

Nepal vs Sri Lanka
Sad to see another match being abandoned due to rain. The timing and place of this tournament has been a bad one. A world cup should have been prioritized over any other games. The rain now could be a deciding factor for making a team to qualify for the super 8s and some not.

Today's match of Nepal vs Sri Lanka was very important for Sri Lanka. As the Sri Lankan team was badly defeated in two consecutive matches, Sri Lanka would definitely have a chance to win against Nepal in today's match. But the match was abandoned due to rain and Sri Lanka had to share the points with Nepal. To be honest Sri Lanka's fate is very bad.  Because the Sri Lankan team was knocked out of the Super 8 due to the fact that they lost the first two matches in the T20 World Cup badly. But if the match had not been abandoned today due to rain, Sri Lanka would have easily won against Nepal, but that's what happens with bad luck.

Heartbreaking for Sri Lanka. Their hopes of making it to the Super 8s are almost gone. Sri Lanka is now 98% eliminated from the T20 World Cup 2024. They are technically still in the race, but it's very unlikely they'll conquer those mathematical conditions. But they really deserved next round? Sri Lanka shouldn't feel unlucky; they should be ashamed of their poor performance. They need to take responsibility for their back-to-back defeats. I would only feel sorry for them if they had played good cricket in this campaign. With no fighting spirit, no mature batting, they don't deserve a spot in the Super 8s.

A game of stark contrast between the Namibian and Australian teams, despite being bowled out by so few runs this season. Team Australia has not lost a single match so far, Team Australia has entered the World Ready quarter finals. And the chances of winning the title are high, as the strongest teams will enter the quarter finals where the most competitive performances will be held.

[cryptoWODL]

The 23rd match of this year's World Cup was scheduled to be played between Nepal and Sri Lanka. However, the match between these two teams was declared abandoned due to rain, as a result of which the Sri Lankan team suffered the most. Because Sri Lanka's position in the group is very pathetic even they may have already been eliminated from this year's T20 World Cup. As they have no chance of going to the Super Eight they have only one more match to play. Sri Lanka lost the first match of the group stage against South Africa by six wickets and then they unfortunately lost by two wickets to Bangladesh in the second match. Again when they were trying to get on the field to play their third match against Nepal, that match was postponed due to rain.

Sri Lanka have faced the opposition in three matches so far but they have not seen a win in any of the matches.As a result their team net run rate is now - 0.777. South Africa, Bangladesh and the Netherlands are now in their group ahead of them.

Pakistan team played a significant role in this match, as they performed well in terms of bowling and batting. Canada team is much weaker than Pakistan team, but two batsmen of Pakistan team Rizwan and Babar Azam played enough role and were patient in this match. This is the first time that Pakistan have won against Canada in three matches in the total points table.

Although the Pakistan team win but in the start the Pakistan bowlers have done very bad performance not like that they were not taking wickets or doing any other things which was related to the out, they couldn’t defend the runs and gave too much runs at the start, however they were also picking wickets that helps to manage but still, when there is 50 score in 3 over so a wicket fall hasn’t any importance.

By the way, this is an example not this same score happening at the game but still, it was something like his, I forget the exact figures. At the powerplay, we just had a good bowler who was Muhammad Amir who picked a wicket and Shaheen Shah too at the last over of power play.

[Bitcoin_people]

The performance of the Australian team today was really great, we know that Australia is a strong and successful team. Moreover, Namibia is not a very strong team, they have got a chance in the T20 World Cup for the first time and it is natural that they played like this against Australia. Namibia were all out for 72 runs and this run was very short. It was not very difficult for Australia but rather easy. The Australian team managed to win by a huge margin of 9 wickets, it was really great that they ended up with a very short target. Win by 74 runs in just 5.4 overs However, most people were betting on Australia in this match and they won. And today's match was not so competitive due to which Australia team did not play with so much pressure and they won very easily.

[N.O]

In today's Pakistan vs Canada 22nd match, Canada team came out to bat and scored 106 runs in 20 overs losing 7 wickets. Pakistan team will win the match by easily surpassing the target of 7 wickets in 20 overs. Pakistan team is now coming out to bat.  .Scored 36 runs for the loss of 1 wicket in 7.1 overs.Pakistan team batsman Saim Ayub was dismissed for 6 runs from 12 balls.Mohammad Rizwan scored 20 runs from 25 balls.Babar Azam scored 7 runs from 10 balls.

Pakistan against Canada squad match was finished recently and today is in favour of Pakistan squad and their sqaud performance was much better than previous matches and this match was very very important match for Pakistan sqaud to reach on 8 Qualifiers squads and Pakistan sqaud emerged victorious with good stats. After emerging victory Pakistan position in standing table was changed and also Pakistan sqaud jumped from 5th position to 3rd. Hope Pakistan sqaud win will display such strength in next match against Ireland squad. Ireland squad performance was also bad and worst in this competition and their recent performance was too much bad with two loss. Today again Pakistan bowlers successfully restricted to Canadian batter at low scores and Canadian batters collected 106 scores as a Defeating target. Muhammad Rizwan in this match displayed significant performance and contribute best strength in match and secure victory and Muhammad Rizwan got 53 scores off 33 deliveries. Saim Ayyub did not showcased actual performance and he collect just 6 scores before wiping out. Canada and Ireland both sqauds are in full trouble for disqualify but This is second lose of Canada total of 3 and Ireland played 2 matches with two lose.

If won the match in Pakistan he had been losing all the previous matches. Hopefully he will continue to play like this in the future. Pakistan is a unpredictable and strong team with a great track record. They showed impressive performance in the previous game and are maintaining their from in this match as well. Pakistan won this game by 7 wickets and 15 balls. Pakistan won the toss with Pakistan elected to batting first. Canada team only set 106 runs and lose match. The 22nd match between Pakistan and Canada was held at the Nassau international cricket stadium. Canada will play very well ahead. From my side and very sorry Canada. The pest performance in the Pakistan team was showed by Muhammad rizwan and he scored  53 runs and 53 balls hitting  2 fours and 1 sixs. The best batting performance in the Canada man team was by Aron Johnson scored  52 runs and  44 balls hitting  4 fours and 4 sixs. Congratulations to Pakistan for their upcoming matches.

Canada team is much weaker than Pakistan team, but two batsmen of Pakistan team Rizwan and Babar Azam played enough role and were patient in this match. This is the first time that Pakistan have won against Canada in three matches in the total points table.

In this World Cup, until now it has been a very different type of World Cup because the big teams are even cannot qualify for the Super 8s and also this time until now we don’t have seen any opening pairs that can change the game.

As there was a Babar Azam and Muhammad Rizwan partnership in the 2021 World Cup and in 2022, Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes, while in 2023 in ODI World Cup, we had an opening pair between Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma but this year we have none.
Now, I am sure many people thought that the Australian team may have a better opening pair, so for them, I don’t think it will count as an opening pair because when after 7 or 8 overs, you lose your wicket then it could not be the best opening pair of the series.

[Nanga Parbat]

I also think USA team has strong chance of winning especially since they are playing on their home ground. However if they lose they need to improve their average to qualify for top 8 teams. Unfortunately Pakistan performance has been disappointing and they are unlikely to make it to super 8 round. It is shame because Pakistan has talented team that can be unpredictable and dangerous. They have history of surprising us with their performances sometimes they exceed expectations and sometimes they fall short. It is frustrating because they have potential to be  strong contender but their inconsistency holds them back. I hope they will turn their performance around and make it to super 8 round as it would make the World Cup more exciting. But chances are very low at this time.

Pakistani team chased the target of 107 runs against Canada in 17.3 overs. Canadian team is very small and they qualify 1st time in World cup and USA made his team for first time . I think USA team could qualify for super 8 but Pakistani team should come back and they win the match against Ireland with good net nun rate because in the next match ,all point of view will be in front of us . I think no player is playing outstanding and also pitch was not batting pitch and we didn't see big sixes in this World Cup.In Yesterday match, Rizwan made a half century for the team and and Babar Azam built 33 runs by facing 33 balls , that is not good performance against small team . I didn't expect that kind of performance against that team . They disappointed their fans in this World Cup because Pakistani team lose the 2 match at the end of match and Pakistan team could win this match but they didn't play with responsibility.

[Popkon6]

Team USA can perform well against other teams but it seems that they will perform badly today when they come against Indian team. With the opening batsman out early in the worst sign, Team USA mustered 25 runs for 2 wickets in seven overs.
In this regard, the Indian team has done a very good bowling performance, in which Arshdeep Singh has collected two wickets in two overs. If the Indian team can do a good bowling performance like this, then they can definitely win this match easily.

[Sithara007]

I was thinking that USA may get to around 130-140 against India, but then they lost quite a few wickets lately. Once Nitish Kumar and Corey Anderson got out, the scoring rate also went down. At this point, Shadley van Schalkwyk and Jasdeep Singh are at the crease and they have 2 more overs to go. If they get to 115-120, then they should be happy about it. India fielded a full-strength side today, with bowling attack being led by Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj and Arshdeep Singh.

[marii awan]

Bangladesh could not win the match despite keeping South Africa within such few runs. At one time the equation was that Bangladesh would have to score fewer runs than balls to win but Bangladesh made that simple equation much more difficult later. 

Mahmudullah picked up the ball on the fifth ball of the innings and the ball would have crossed the boundary line had the South African fielder not fielded brilliantly. I will not say that Bangladesh lost this match only because of Bangladesh's failure, there were some faulty decisions by the umpires. 

In all these major ICC events, ICC uses their elite panel amperes but such wrong decisions are not really expected by these elite panel amperes. Several white balls they considered as legal balls as well as they gave up without claiming LBW, it was seen here that several decisions went against them. 
All in all, if Bangladesh could have won then maybe we would have forgotten everything but that was not the case.

Pakistan and Bangladesh could not handle the pressure and were not aware of the situation that when to hit the ball and when to stop or take singles.
Another worst thing that happened to team Bangladesh is ICC's sluggish rule about dead balls and at the end of the day, those 4 runs cost Bangladesh a lot.

[Out of mind]

Pakistan team played a significant role in this match, as they performed well in terms of bowling and batting. Canada team is much weaker than Pakistan team, but two batsmen of Pakistan team Rizwan and Babar Azam played enough role and were patient in this match. This is the first time that Pakistan have won against Canada in three matches in the total points table.

Namibia vs Australia
That was a short match with Namibia being all out making 72 in 17 overs. Australia chasing the target of 73 completed it in 5.4 overs losing a wicket. Australia surely is one of the favorite for the cup and Namibia is lucky to meet them in this platform.

The Namibian team lost the toss and went into bat, losing wickets at the start and under a lot of pressure. From there, no batsman could bat responsibly due to which the Namibia team was all out for only 72 runs. Gerhard Erasmus scored the highest runs for the Namibia team. Gerhard Erasmus was out with 36 runs off 43 balls. Coming down to bat against the target of 73 runs given by the Namibia team, the Australian team batted very responsibly and easily won against the Namibia team. Congratulations to Australia for this great win.

Australia's bowling performed well, with Zampa picking up four wickets alone.  And every bowler got a wicket but the Namibian team did not perform well in any aspect comparatively. Because the Australian team is the strongest team of this season, so far the Australian team has not lost any match. They occupy the last place in the points table and have already participated in the qualifiers.

Although we can say that Canada team is much weaker than Pakistan team but in the game we experienced in the match Canada team also played well. Canada team performed better than Pakistan team because Canada team is not that much experienced in cricket but Pakistan team is much more experienced but no one expected the performance they are following. However, even though two batsmen managed to score in the match due to good batting against Canada, the points that Pakistan team has in the points table are very less. However, USA has more points than Pakistan in the points table, they played well, but the next match is against Pakistan's Ireland. And if Pakistan team can't win this match then they will have to withdraw from the qualifying round so they have to improve the game of Pakistan team.

[marii awan]

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.

Game awareness in cricket especially in the shorter format is very important every player should be aware of the situation and also handle the pressure. Rizwan knows his importance in the crease while chasing the target but he goes against India's top bowler and through his wicket in a very tough situation after that Imad Iftikhar and Shadab do the rest work and build a lot of pressure on team Pakistan in the chase situation and within 10 mins win predictor from 92% drops to 43% just because of their dots and not going for a big hit. All credit goes to the Indian pace attack they continually build pressure on Pakistan and its middle order.

[Sithara007]

USA ended up with 110-8 against India, with tailenders Shadley van Schalkwyk and Jasdeep Singh adding valuable runs towards the end. At one point it looked as if they may get to 130, but even this score is quite good given the fact that the tracks so far have been very supportive towards the bowlers. Still India may walk away with 2 points from this match, and USA need to contend with the fact that this match may not do much damage to their net run rate (which may be important later on).

[marii awan]

In today's Pakistan vs Canada 22nd match, Canada team came out to bat and scored 106 runs in 20 overs losing 7 wickets. Pakistan team will win the match by easily surpassing the target of 7 wickets in 20 overs. Pakistan team is now coming out to bat.  .Scored 36 runs for the loss of 1 wicket in 7.1 overs.Pakistan team batsman Saim Ayub was dismissed for 6 runs from 12 balls.Mohammad Rizwan scored 20 runs from 25 balls.Babar Azam scored 7 runs from 10 balls.

Finally 2 points for Pakistan and register their 1st victory in the World Cup. I think the Pakistan team did not deserve to be in the Super 8. The USA's performance is far better than Pakistan's. Let's hope things go in Pakistan's favor and Pakistan still qualifies for Super 8.

Australia Outstanding performance in this match winning by a huge 9 wickets and more than fourteen remaining. Australian team chased down the small target of 74 runs in just a loss of single wickets and the big thing is that they chased this target in powerplay. The man of the Match is Adam Zampa for his amazing bowling performance picked 4 important wickets by just giving 12 runs only in his bowling spell. After winning this match Australia confirm their seat for the Super Eight round. I think in group B Australia and Scotland will qualify for the Super Eight next round of the World Cup. England team is in trouble after losing one match and also tying one match their chances of qualifying are very slim.

England cricket team is in good form and they will play next matches against small teams and they will win the next matches easily and they will easily qualify for Super 8 .  Australian team  easily qualify for  super 8 and Tomorrow, England team will play match against Serbia and they will win the match with handsome net run rate. England team batters and bowlers are in good form and they have capability to all out sebia team at the score of 60 runs and they have capability to chase that score in just 5 overs because they have top class hard hitter who can play in any situation.I like England team and their performance is top of the rank in all formats and they have best fast bowlers and brilliant openers and good middle order and I think,they will definitely qualify for super 8 and they will qualify for semi final.
