England vs Oman

What a massive win by England in today match against Oman. I was not expecting such a great performance from England and not expecting such a bad performance by Oman. Oman only made 47 runs and they lost all wickets. Only three bowlers of England collected all wickets means  Adil Rashid collected 4 wickets and he is the player of the match and he deserved that. Mark Wood collected 3 wickets and Jofra Archer also collected 3 wickets. Overall bowling of England team was excellent.
After that when they started batting so they chased the target in 3.1 overs. Which really help them to make a better run rate. Overall England team performed really well. Congratulations on their massive win.

England played really well and beat Oman easily. Their bowlers were amazing especially Adil Rashid who took four wickets and was named Player of the Match. Mark Wood and Jofra Archer also bowled very well, and together they stopped Oman from scoring many runs and they made only 47 runs which I think it was a very low target. England batsmen then scored runs they needed quickly and easily in just 3 overs and they lost 2 wickets too. This win shows that England is a very strong team, and I think they will do well in future matches. By the way great job, England. Congratulations!

The opening pair of Netherlands got off to a great start with the 160-run target set by Bangladesh. The way the Dutch batsmen were batting, there was a time when it seemed that Bangladesh would probably lose against the Netherlands. However, the Bangladeshi bowlers bowled brilliantly towards the end due to which Bangladesh was able to defeat the Netherlands by 25 runs. But what I liked most about today's match between Netherlands vs Bangladesh is Shakib Al Hasan's batting after a long time we have enjoyed Shakib Al Hasan like this, of course the world's best all-rounder has batted very well. The world's best all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan is unbeaten with 64 runs off 46 balls.  Rishad Hossain Taskin Ahmed and Mostafizur Rahman bowled very well in today's match. Rishad Hossain got 3 wickets, Taskin Ahmed got 2 wickets and Mostafizur Rahman got the 1 wicket. Bangladesh team won by 25 runs against Netherlands Congratulations to Bangladesh team.

After a long time I think Bangladesh team perform good at both side like batting and bowling. But it is also true that team like Netherlands really also perform good against Bangladesh like they don't make able to Bangladesh long-run like 180 or 200 and also in case of batting  at once time I thought may they are gonna be winner.  

Bangladesh lost the toss when they batted and batted and lost wickets in the beginning and were under a bit of pressure. However, the Bangladesh team batted fairly well with the responsible batting of Shakib Al Hasan and Tanjid Hasan. At one point I thought Bangladesh might score 180 runs. But the Netherlands bowlers have to be praised. They restrict teams like Bangladesh to 160 runs. The target of 160 runs given by Bangladesh, the Dutch batsmen batted fairly well, if they could have batted in that manner, then the Netherlands could have been disastrous for the Bangladesh team. However, the Bangladeshi bowlers could not bowl aggressively in the beginning, but in the end almost all the bowlers bowled aggressively, due to which they were able to win against the Netherlands. But this victory was very necessary for Bangladesh. Bangladesh team has batting weakness, Bangladesh team must focus on batting.

I have never seen a match today that ends in three overs.It was a very low scoring match, it was like you didn't know when it started and when it was over. It was a boring match that ended very quickly. England did not have to work hard to win this match . Jos Buttler continued his brilliant innings and completed the run target, hitting four fours in just eight balls and scoring 24 runs. And p salt played three balls in which he hit two sixes and in the attempt of these sixes he Los his wicket. As well all know P salt has been in a brilliant batting preformance in the last Indians Premium league.

Afghanistan captain decided to bowl first after winning the toss and exploited this decision to the best of his ability. Afghanistan bowlers bowled very aggressively from the start due to which the Papua New Guinea batsmen did not bat well. Can't bat due to which Papua New Guinea team is all out for only 95 runs. Afghanistan's bowlers bowled very well with aggressive bowling from the start. Fazalhaq Farooqi bowled very well as Papua New Guinea got three crucial wickets. But Rashid Khan did not get any wicket in today's match. If we see from the beginning of the IPL game, Rashid Khan's performance was as dangerous as his bowling line is slowly getting worse.

[Bitcoin_people]

The PNG team showed little anger in the Afghanistan vs Papua New Guinea match. The team was all out after batting just 95 runs in the first innings due to which the Afghanistan team seems to be successful in meeting the target. Afghanistan team gave a great bowling performance due to which PNG team lost wickets very easily and could not increase the run rate. Afghanistan team is much more experienced and strong than PNG so they will surely win today's match easily. Afghanistan team has already lost three wickets to meet the target of 96 runs but the Afghans will surely succeed in meeting this small target today. At the moment, Afghanistan need to collect 35 runs from 58 balls to win, although there are still enough wickets and balls to win easily.

[tsaroz]

Bangladesh vs Netherlands
Both of these team needed this win. Netherlands made Bangladesh bat first. Even though a few of its batsmen struggled, Shakib Al Hasan's 64 out of 46 propelled the score to a defendable one. Netherlands chasing a target of 160, even though were not bad, a regular fall of wicket kept their run rate low and were not able to achieve the target in 20 overs and lost by 25 runs.
England vs Oman
England dominated as expected. Oman batting first was all out in a very low score of 47 which England chased in 19 balls. One of the quickest win in T20 worldcup.
Afghanistan vs PNG
Afghanistan has an easy win against PNG chasing a small target of 96. Afghanistan keeps its winning streak and now are undefeated along with West Indies in their group. Both qualifying to super 8 with a game left.

Afghanistan eventually won by 7 wickets with many balls to spare. Papua New Guinea were bowled out for 95 runs, a target of 95 runs was not enough to win against a strong team like Afghanistan. Today the Afghanistan bowlers bowled brilliantly. Especially Naveen-ul-Haq and Fazalhaq Farooqi bowled exceptionally well. However, the two opening batsmen of Afghanistan could not do well. Gulbadin Naib delivered a brilliant performance, he was unbeaten on 49 off 36 balls. Afghanistan win and confirm Super 8. Afghanistan and West Indies have qualified from Group C. Papua New Guinea, Uganda and New Zealand have been eliminated from Group C.

In the 27th match of Bangladesh vs Netherlands team, Bangladesh team won the match by 25 runs. Bangladesh team came to bat and scored 159 runs for 5 wickets in 20 overs. Bangladesh team batsmen Shanto and Litton Das did not do well. Shakib Al Hasan and Tanzid Hasan both played excellent batting.  The Netherlands team came to bat and lost 8 wickets in 20 overs and scored 134 runs. The Netherlands team could not win by exceeding the target given by the Bangladesh team.

Papua New Guinea very disappointing performance in this world cup losing all three matches. Papua New Guinea scored a low target of 95 runs All out against Afghanistan. Afghanistan won by 7 wickets. Afghanistan team easily chased down the target of 101 runs in a loss of 3 wickets and qualified for the final of the Super Eight round. The man of the match award to Fazalhaq Farooqi for his outstanding bowling performance picked 3 important wickets by just giving only 16 runs in his bowling spell. Afghanistan team is amazing by winning all three matches in this World Cup and top of the table after beating Papua New Guinea.

This match and the England match both was really exciting. First England played really well against Oman. Match was just amazing. England collected wicket on wicket. And they just out the whole team at 47 runs. And surprising thing that England just chased the target in 3 overs.
And in Afghanistan and PNG team. PNG played first turn and they managed to make only 95 runs. Fazalhaq Farooqi was good in bowling and he collected 3 wickets. And Afghanistan just chased the target in 15 overs and they lost 3 wickets. Overall England and Afghanistan performance was good. I hope they both will qualify for the semifinals.

In 28th game of group stage oman make 4th lowest score in history of t20 world cup. while batting oman could make only 47 runs excellent bowling by England bowlers Adil Rasheed takes 4 wickets while Jofra Archer and mark wood took 3 , 3 wickets England bowlers dominated on oman team very badly they restricted them under 50 runs. England team chase the target in 3 overs to get a better run rate then Scotland the strategy adopted by the England team is commendable.

An excellent comeback by England team in this World Cup there is still hope for the England team going into super eight simply England won next match against Namibia and Australia beat Scotland then England team will be in Super Eight because then both teams will have 5 , 5 points England to much runrate helps them to qualify for next round of WC.

The Netherlands team could not win by exceeding the target given by the Bangladesh team.

Yesterday Bangladesh vs Netherlands match was very exciting. The Bangladesh team lost the toss and went to bat. They lost two wickets and were under a lot of pressure. Tanjid Hasan and Shakib Al Hasan played responsible batting for Bangladesh. However, Tanjid Hasan could not take his innings much further and was dismissed for just 35 runs, but Shakib Al Hasan batted responsibly for Bangladesh. Due to the responsible batting of the world's best all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, Bangladesh can collect 159 runs in the scheduled 20 overs. In the target of 160 runs given by Bangladesh, the Netherlands batsmen batted well and each of their players batted well. At one time, it seemed that Bangladesh would lose against the Netherlands. But the Bangladesh bowlers bowled very well towards the end. Due to which Netherlands lost the match against Bangladesh by 25 runs. Bangladesh team took a step closer to the Super 8 spot with a 25-run win against the Netherlands.

[ZAINmalik75]

Disappointed with the results from Netherlands vs Bangladesh match. At one point, I thought that Netherlands are going to win. They were 111/3 when Sybrand Engelbrecht and Scott Edwards were at the crease. But once Engelbrecht got out, the slide started. Bas de Leede got out two balls later without scoring a run. Aryan Dutt managed to hit a few boundaries towards the end, but by then it was too late. Bangladesh has almost confirmed of a spot in the Super8, and it is clear that Sri Lanka can't qualify (as they only have 1 point).

I think still people underestimating Bangladesh because they haven't shown some decent results especially in thier thier bilateral series right before world cup but as soon as they defeat one of thier rival sirilankan team in world cup at that time I change my mind about them. I think each team just required just a click to perform phenomenal despite having worst performance in recent matches and here against sirilanka victory they get the momentum they required and to be honest they can easily even won against South Africa if they played a bit sensibly as because they require run a ball which isn't much difficult or impossible. Anyway Thier bowling is at peak level currently and I believe they can upset any top side and that what thier fan want from them😉 hope we will see them in true colours in super 8 and above stages

In this match we have seen a hard fight. Both teams fought hard to win. And the match was also competitive. It was a very important match for both.

Bangladesh's young opener Tanzid batted well in this match. However, we don't see good batting from Shanto and Liton in this match either. Although Towhid Hridoy batted well in the last two matches, he could not bat well against Netherlands. Sakib Al Hasan batted well in this match. Mahmudullah and Jaker Ali's innings were also much needed.

Bangladeshi bowlers have also done well. Especially I would say that it was easy for Bangladesh to win the match because of Mustafiz. He conceded only 12 runs in 4 overs.

Bangladesh which were under serious criticism after losing series against the host USA done impressive job in this event and now having fair chance of going into next round which is big success for them, and they are doing good performance even still need to stick with few things and improve their over all performance, but they are showing they are still capable of fighting hard and having their best day into their hands with their performance.

Even at one point I was having feeling they are going to lose this game, but they use good things and having breakthrough which give them good chance of fight back and having win in this game Netherlands is also doing good, but they are still needed more experience for having wins against full members bowlers are doing good job and bring few good breakthroughs on right time which is the best part of their success in this event.

Today's USA vs Ireland match will be very competitive. USA team is performing very well in this World Cup. USA players beat a big team like Pakistan. Despite the defeat against India, USA is now second in the table due to wins in the first two matches. Team USA will be able to qualify for the next round if they beat Ireland in today's match.

We haven't seen too many Ireland vs USA matches. This is probably the third T20 match between Ireland vs USA.

Ireland's squad is not weak. They have some talented players in their squad. But in this year's World Cup, Ireland's batsmen are not able to perform well on bowling-friendly pitches.

Ireland's squad is not weak. They have some talented players in their squad. But in this year's World Cup, Ireland's batsmen are not able to perform well on bowling-friendly pitches.

Ireland's squad is by no means weaker than USA's but the particular issue is that US's pitch is mainly spinner-friendly, so no good team can score good runs on these pitches in this World Cup. Although USA has done well in every match so far it is only natural that they will play well in their own venue. So in today's match I am giving both teams a fifty-fifty chance. If Island can perform well with their best then they can win the match and if they win the match it will basically give a lot of advantage to Pakistan. However, to qualify for the Super Eight from the USA group stage, there is no option to win today's match, that is, a win is a must, otherwise the chances of Pakistan qualifying in NRR's calculation will increase a lot.

The 29th match between Afghanistan and Papua new Guinea was played at the brain Lara stadium. Afghanistan won the toss and Afghanistan chose to batting first. Papua new Guinea is proved to be very weak team and did not win any game in this tournament . Afghanistan is a very strong team. Afghanistan has won every match and their rank is also very good and First rank other team in Group C. The previous matches Afghanistan team played were fantastic. Now they have also played this match very well. I hope they will play better in the next match and PNG team did not qualify for Super Eight round games. Afghanistan playing this game very amazing with 101 runs and looking at their performance. Papua new Guinea made and set 95 runs target and lost match because of very small target. Afghanistan man team played with great spirit and determination. Fazalhaq farozi very talented player with amazing cricket skills. Afghanistan have been outstanding and they continue to play exceptionally well in every match. Afghanistan won by this Game by 7 wickets and 29 balls. The best batting performance in Afghanistan man team was shown by  gulbadin naib scored 49 runs and 36 balls hitting 4 fours and 2 Sixs. Congratulations to Afghanistan for their upcoming matches.

Yes the Ireland squad is very good many of them have participated in domestic T20s in different countries and they have a lot of experience. USA played a T20I series with Bangladesh even before the start of the World Cup where USA won the series and there is no way to take them lightly. USA trail Pakistan in net run rate even though they are two points higher. Pakistan's NNR +0.191, USA +0.127 means USA must win, if they lose Pakistan will have a big chance due to leading NRR. But considering the recent performances I think the second team to qualify from Group A can be confirmed today.

There are chances that we will see no match today because the rain has been happening and when they will come after the rain the team who bowls first has to face some difficulties because of pitch conditions and it is the last chance for the Pakistan team to qualify for the super 8s but don’t think so it will happen and also New Zealand, England and Sri Lanka too has been out from the World Cup but only the Pakistan team can come in the super 8s still otherwise no chance for them. Now we have to wait for the next inspection which is around after 40 minutes from now.

The next inspection will take place at 11.30, in about 50 minutes By then, it may be raining anyway.

10.40am: The skies have darkened significantly in the past few minutes. The outfield still looks like it's quite wet, but we await an official verdict from the inspection

The news from Espn Cricinfo does not look great for cricket and we may see a no match. The USA will want the rain stay and they qualify for the Super 8s.
