T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[kro55]

Afghanistan team has already won this match very well. When Afghanistan cricket team batted first and scored only 148 runs, I thought today maybe Afghanistan will lose this match to Australia because they scored less runs.

Even then, the Australian team was blocked by the bowlers of the Afghanistan team. In today's match every player of Afghanistan team bowled well they gave their best performance. Nabinul Haque was aggressive from the beginning in today's match, he picked up the first three wickets. Basically he initiated the breakdown of Australia's batting line-up. Since then he has been the Australian cricket team losing wickets at regular intervals and despite a low scoring match in which they lost to Afghanistan by 21 runs in the last minute.

Afghanistan team showed a big surprise. Afghanistan team lost the last two matches against West Indies and India by big margins. Afghanistan were defeated by 47 runs against India and 104 runs against West Indies. But Afghanistan made a great comeback today. Afghanistan team defeated a giant team like Australia by 21 runs.

The pitch was not batting friendly. And this is the reason why Afghanistan team was able to win this match. Afghanistan set a small target of 149 runs. Afghanistan won the match very easily due to the controlled bowling of the bowlers. No other batsman can bat better than Maxwell in Australian squad. Maxwell scored 59 runs.
Gulabdeen naib and Naveen Ul Haque both contributed 20 runs in 4 overs. And took 4 and 3 wickets respectively.

I think the Australia vs Afghanistan match will be a competitive one. However, there is no doubt that the Australian team is very strong. Even then Afghanistan team will try hard to win this match.

I could consider the Afghanistan squad to be weak. Afghanistan is a very strong team in T20 format. Because most of the Afghanistan Qadr players perform in various franchise leagues throughout the year. Afghanistan's bowling order is also strong.

The match will be played at Sabina Park Stadium in Kingstown, this pitch is not batting friendly. This pitch helps spin bowlers. I have seen this in previous matches. The average collection on this pitch in the first innings is 165 runs and in the second innings the average collection is 149 runs. Since the pitch is spin friendly, that's why I think the match will be competitive.

I don't think this match between Afghanistan and Australia will be so competitive and even if it is competitive, it will be seen that Australia won in the last stage. Because currently Australia is in top form and on the other hand though the recent performance in Afghanistan was good but I don't think it is enough to win with it in Australia so I think it would be best to pick Australia team in terms of betting.

You don't think the match will be competitive. But Afghanistan team won the match to our surprise. I wouldn't say the result was entirely unexpected. As I said earlier the pitch was bowling friendly. And Afghanistan players do very well on this type of pitch. Afghanistan's bowlers can do well especially on this type of pitch. That is why I said yesterday that the match is likely to be competitive.

Afghanistan players have performed well and they deserve to win this match. I would not say that the batsmen were batting well. Afghanistan needed to collect around 160 on this pitch. However, almost every bowler in the Afghanistan squad bowled well in this match. The Afghanistan captain used his 8 bowlers in this match.

A target of 197 runs with Bangladesh is an impossible reality especially in T20 where it is never possible with Bangladesh's current squad. Bangladesh will be able to challenge the maximum target of 150 runs but if it goes above 150 runs for Bangladesh, it becomes very difficult challenging. Bangladesh got off to a great start today but couldn't add to the run score quickly. However, Bangladesh's target of 197 runs to win against India is an unrealistic fantasy for me.

Bangladeshi Cricket team has no in form batsman and they has no good combination of players. Bangladeshi team was good before 5 years when they won the series against Pakistan and South Africa but they are playing very bad. Their bowling is low class but they qualify for super 8 that is good success for that team because they don't deserve to qualify for Super 8. If Pakistani team played in super 8 againt India, Pakistani team could give tough time to Indian team but Indian team won the team one sided.  Hardik looked in good form in yesterday match and he played well and built half century for his team and remained not out at the end of inning .I like Hardik as a player and he is not good captain and he can't handle the pressure on captain. Indian team gave a handsome target and they won the match easily.

Afghanistan were defeated by 47 runs against India and 104 runs against West Indies. But Afghanistan made a great comeback today. Afghanistan team defeated a giant team like Australia by 21 runs.

Today is the day when the Afghanistan team had taken their revenge and now Australia stands into a tough situation. They had lost a game with Afghanistan. Now, there is a must for them to qualify for the semi final but for this they have to win their next match with too much run rate against India to be on the number one position.

Then when there is a match between Afghanistan and Bangladesh, then India could be in danger if this happen so they could be out if Australia win the match with India with too much run rate. Anything can happen at this time. Afghanistan have still chances to go in.

"We have a lot of belief in our group," Marsh said. "We are a very good cricket team. Yes, tonight we had an off night, but I guess there's also a positive in the fact that in 36 hours we go again. I think if you look back at the short history of this team, I know for a fact that it brings out the best in our guys, so the boys will certainly be up and about for it."

Australia and Marsh are very confident that they will come up strong against India. Marsh confident Australia will be 'up and about' for India challenge after Afghanistan loss

Afghanistan is a compatible team in the T20 format because they have the best spinner and fast bowlers with an amazing batting line and Afghanistan won by 21 runs against Australia. i think this is the first time Afghanistan beat Australia in cricket World Cup. Afghanistan batted first and scored 148 runs in a loss of 6 wickets at one stage Afghanistan scored 116 runs without loss of any wicket then Australia amazing comeback in the match and restricted the Afghanistan team to under 150 runs. Australia team failed to chase down this small target and only manage to score 127 runs All out in the last over of the match. Afghanistan bowlers outstanding batting performance picking early wickets and staying alive in the World Cup race after winning the match.

[JSRAW]

And some were saying that Group 1 would be a cakewalk for India and Australia  

Mind you, India sitting at the top comfortably with 4 points but their qualification is not a sure thing, just yet. One scenario can ruin the party for the Indians.

 
- Australia thrashing India in the last encounter and denting India's NRR.  
- Afghanistan giving the same belt treatment (similar to Kiwis) to Bangbros and possibly boosting their NRR.

It's shocking news for any of those who really underestimate Afghanistan especially in shorter format of the cricket and it's dream come true moments for Afghanistan because they not only beat Australia for a first time in ICC competition but in T20 format too and I think they some how take their revenge from Australian to not play bilateral series with them. To be honest I wasn't expecting Australia to lose but I think Afghanistan really played good cricket and neglect against whom they are playing but focus on Thier own game thus without any pressure they done it brilliantly. I think Afghanistan really execute pressure on them from first ball and thus they get thier first important wickets which really set momentum for them. Any way that victory alive Afghanistan hope of playing semifinals and now a single defeat of Australia from India will push them almost to the semifinals.

Indian team gave a handsome target and they won the match easily.

I am not only blaming the batsmen, Bangladesh team has not improved for a long time. Starting from team selection, Bangladesh cricket team is plagued with controversies in various ways. However very fortunately Bangladesh got Super 8 place. In India's Super 8 match against Bangladesh, India continued to hit from the start, except for Suriya Kumar Yadav, everyone in the top order middle order got runs which took their total to 196 runs. The spinners were instrumental in the match, India bowled brilliantly with Kuldeep Yadav picking up three wickets, while Bumrah took two wickets for 13 runs in just four overs. A 50-run win India against Bangladesh  is way ahead on net run-rate, statistically anything is possible but I think India's semi-final is assured.

[Fuso.hp]

Group 1 looks pretty much boring. India and Australia are almost assured of a spot in the semi-finals, since the other two teams are extremely weak. On the other hand, Group 2 is tougher. India had an easy win against Afghanistan today, and I am very much sure that they will mop the floor with Bangladesh during the next match. They have three very strong teams - West Indies, South Africa and England. On top of that, the fourth team (USA) has also performed very strongly till now.

As we are seeing the boring matches in this Super 8s also in group A, we have confirmed that India has gone into the semi-final and today there was also a chance for the Australian team to go and take a step to go into the semis but they lost and made the group wide open for the Afganistan team too.
This is group A where we all know what will happen but on the other side, we are seeing magical matches in group B and still, we are confused whether will England go into the semi-final or West Indies. West Indies just won against the United States of America and also lost to England but that match was really close.

Australia and India were very likely to qualify for the semi-finals but Afghanistan's performance in the last match was truly surprising. Afghanistan may have taken the tough revenge of the World Cup. In the ODI World Cup we saw Afghanistan lose a match they were sure to win due to Maxwell's brilliant performance but that did not repeat itself in the T20 World Cup. Afghanistan managed to restrict Australia to less than 150 runs and eventually bowled out Australia to earn full points against Australia. Now if Afghanistan somehow wins the match against Bangladesh then Afghanistan will qualify for the semi-final without any equation but if Bangladesh can win the last match by a big margin then Australia, Bangladesh and Afghanistan will have a chance to qualify for the semi-final.

Not only in this World Cup but in every World Cup Bangladesh team selects teams in such a way that they are eliminated in the first round. However, they managed to reach the Super Eight round in this year's World Cup. After reaching the Super Eight round, we saw a very poor performance from Bangladesh as they lost both matches.

The Bangladesh team currently has players from whom we never see consistent performances. As a result they have no hope. There is no player who holds an edge and takes out any match i.e. plays a match winning innings. The batting and bowling performance of the Bangladesh team players seems to be forgetting the game day by day. I don't see any improvement in them. The main problem of the Bangladesh team is the opening batsman but although the opening batsman has done a little better, Mahmudullah Riyad, one of the most trusted middle order batsmen, is not in form at all. Despite being an experienced player, he is failing to give his best. The Bangladesh team has already been eliminated from the Super Eight round.

[libert19]

Having watched 2023 odiwc where Aussies did similar shitshow first few games, I would not underrestimate them with this performance.   

Also, Ashton Agar is certainly getting benched next game.

You know the history of Bangladesh qualifying for Super Eight, especially if Bangladesh could not win against Nepal, then Bangladesh would have been eliminated. If the batting line of Nepal could have batted defensively and held the wicket that day, then maybe Nepal would have won the match.
However, leaving aside the group stage, Bangladesh's matches with Australia and India in the Super Eight are done, now Afghanistan is left out. It is 100% sure that Bangladesh will definitely lose with Afghanistan as Afghanistan proved it by defeating Australia in today's match. Bangladesh will not be able to win a single match in Super Eight because Bangladesh does not have a squad to win in Super Eight.

The cricket history of Bangladesh is in a very sad, shameful situation at present. The talented cricketers of Bangladesh have been playing the game in the past few days. Bangladesh really misses those players. In a word, Bangladesh is not going well now. We have seen that Bangladesh is not the energetic cricket team that was before 2010. But in this year's ICC T20 World Cup, Bangladesh reached Superah 8 anyway, where Pakistan did not get a place, and teams like New Zealand did not get a place.

Meanwhile, it can be seen that in the past matches between Pakistan and India, Pakistan has won more times. But as the political environment of Pakistan is not favorable, the party of Pakistan has been destroyed once and for all. Bangladesh Cricket Board is following its path. Maybe the Bangladesh cricket team will be destroyed very soon. Bangladesh cricket team needs energy and good performance.

Australia and India were very likely to qualify for the semi-finals but Afghanistan's performance in the last match was truly surprising. Afghanistan may have taken the tough revenge of the World Cup. In the ODI World Cup we saw Afghanistan lose a match they were sure to win due to Maxwell's brilliant performance but that did not repeat itself in the T20 World Cup. Afghanistan managed to restrict Australia to less than 150 runs and eventually bowled out Australia to earn full points against Australia. Now if Afghanistan somehow wins the match against Bangladesh then Afghanistan will qualify for the semi-final without any equation but if Bangladesh can win the last match by a big margin then Australia, Bangladesh and Afghanistan will have a chance to qualify for the semi-final.

Maxwell had his moment, but Afghanistan's performance couldn't be denied this time. Afghanistan beat Australia for the first time in their history, which ending Australia's record streak of consecutive wins in T20 World Cups! Fielding and quick runs between the wickets made all the difference. I have to say a stellar performance by the Afghans. This win not only created problems for Australia but also opened up the qualification race. If India defeats Australia and Afghanistan defeats Bangladesh, means Afghan will qualify. But Afghanistan still needs to beat Bangladesh to simplify things. From my perspective Afghanistan are the favorites this time.

And what do you say about the United States of America ? They came first time on the mainstream and made an impact. In fact they are very close to reaching the semi-finals, if they can beat England today.

Must be for the team of England to win this match with a very good run rate and they can because they are going to face the United States of America and they must win this because it is their last match too in the Super 8s, and if they win this with a huge run rate then they come on the second position. Also tomorrow is the match of West Indies with South African team so they have to lose it then England may qualify but don’t know why I think West Indies team will make their place into the semi-final and England will be out.

As long as the Bangladesh cricket team is not able to stay free from the political ring, Bangladesh cricket will not prosper. Especially in the current situation Bangladesh cricket can never improve because players are selected politically in Bangladesh cricket due to which good players do not get a place in the team mainly due to political revenge.
Except for Mahmudullah Riyad, all the other players got a place in the team mainly for political reasons. Liton Das, Tanjid Hasan, Nazmul Hasan Shanta are consistently performing poorly but there is no accountability from the team management.
There will be no improvement in Bangladesh's top order until some players are changed in the Bangladesh squad. So I strongly recommend keeping Bangladesh cricket free from politics and changing some of the top order batsmen.

[Haunebu]

England are doing well against USA currently and it looks like they have this one in their bag unless their batsmen choke. Let's see what happens.

Then when there is a match between Afghanistan and Bangladesh, then India could be in danger if this happen so they could be out if Australia win the match with India with too much run rate. Anything can happen at this time. Afghanistan have still chances to go in.

Hilarious! Did you even watch India's matches recently? Australia might defeat them for sure, but expecting them to thrash them after getting defeated by Afghanistan comfortably is simply funny.

Probably you misunderstood it, I am just saying that is one scenario that can happen on paper and the same is being told by others as below.

Mind you, India sitting at the top comfortably with 4 points but their qualification is not a sure thing, just yet. One scenario can ruin the party for the Indians.

- Australia thrashing India in the last encounter and denting India's NRR.  
- Afghanistan giving the same belt treatment (similar to Kiwis) to Bangbros and possibly boosting their NRR.

I know this is unlikely to happen as India is one of the best teams that should reach the finals. The other team who is looking threatening at the moment is Afghanistan and the reason is their spirit. You won't find such a spirit in any other team currently.

There is no denying that India is a weak country these days. India has made their cricket career very strong now. And this luck has come to them through a popular game IPL. All the strong players are coming out from all over India through IPL. India are currently maintaining their consistent performance in both batting and bowling. And it is a very useful and powerful element for a team to maintain batting and bowling line consistency.

On the other hand, Afghanistan has a game against India. The Afghanistan team has played a great game in this World Cup, defeating the mighty Australia team. Afghanistan has achieved a unique milestone in history. Which is floating the country of Afghanistan further forward. Who knows, we may witness some exciting matches ahead!

ICC Men's T20 World Cup, 2024. USA Vs ENGLAND match. England won the toss and elected to field first. Although the USA team in this T20 World Cup started very well. they throw a good challenge to opened. But in this match  USA batter did not play well. Nitish Kumar is a high scorer he made 30 runs from 24 balls. USA team all out only 115 runs in  (18.5) balls.Chris Jordan takes sensational hat-trick he takes four wickets. England managed their win quite easily.  USA bowlers tried to break the opening partnership but they were not able to take any England wickets, England won 10 wickets in just 117/0 (9.4).
