T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

New Zealand was batting first and they gave the target of 108 which was not good to win the game. New Zealand was failed to make a good start, Tim Robinson out on the very first ball of the game, then Will Young scored some runs that contain value in the game. Although, later four wickets were gone for the New Zealand and no one even scored 10 but till the Mitchell Santner has arrived in the game, by the way he is the captain, he made some scores and made some sort of partnership with Josh Clarkson.

However it was eventually due to the hard and the smart work of the bowlers they made the victory for themselves. To defend this small target is no joke and New Zealand bowler Lockie Ferguson took 3 wickets and gave only 2 runs. We had similar performances by them.

New Zealand only scored 108 runs making it hard to win. But their bowlers did great job. Game started badly for New Zealand with Tim Robinson getting out on first ball. Will Young then scored some important runs. New Zealand lost four wickets quickly but captain Mitchell Santner and Josh Clarkson worked together well. Bowlers played amazingly well helping New Zealand win. They also did well defending New Zealand small score. The bowlers completely changed the game.

The target that was given by the New Zealand team was not good, then Lockie Ferguson took the 3 wickets back to back in a line (Hat trick). On his amazing performance, he delivered just 12 balls and got 3 wickets. His hat trick boosts the confidence of the team and also boost the hopes for his players and for his supporters.



By the way, Everyone is highlighting to him (including me) but I think there is also much effort of the other bowlers such as Glenn Phillips who took 3 wickets in 11 balls and the last wicket also picked by him.

Hmmm, that's absolutely right because if we have a look at the scoreboard, Indian bowlers have already departure most of thier lineup, and it's it's true if they had scored 30 to 50 more runs guaranteed match will go in their favor but I think due to the quick early on important wicket loss of Indian team push them a few steps back and pressure will start to mounting in such a situation, and if some of the experienced batters failed to read bowlers then the rest of the batters will definitely feel trouble and things will be moving quickly out of their hands, which results in a very low target for them.
Now if we have a look at bowling the only guy who is making things more difficult for South Africa and that is mystery spinner Varun who took the most important danger man klassen and Markram, but was unfortunately unable to get victory.

You are right about match. India lost important wickets early making it hard to score enough runs. Having 30 to 50 more runs would have changed things. Varun bowled amazingly getting key players Klaasen and Markram out. His spin bowling troubled South Africa. But India batting issues and not using Varun good bowling to their advantage lost them game. You pointed out important moments that helped South Africa win. They have two matces left and series is holding at 1-1. So let's see who will win the series.

First of all, it is very odd that they went with a 4-match T20I series. Either it should consist of 3 matches, or 5 matches. Anyway, the third match is scheduled to take place at the SuperSport Park in Centurion. And historically, the pitch at this stadium has favored pace bowlers. And as we saw during the last match, South African pacers are in really good form (especially Gerald Coetzee, Marco Jansen and Andile Simelane). On the other hand, the two Indian opening bowlers (Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan) failed to impress. For how long Indians are going to be overdependent on spinners? And that too in South African tracks.

In the last match, the Indian batsmen openers failed to make the good runs and to set the good target in which they would get the hope to win the match. But in the first match, Sanju Samson performed amazingly but in the second and the last game, no Sanju, no any other player from the Indian team. Gerald Coetzee, Marco Jansen and Andile Simelane has not did even much good bowling, as you mentioned them specially, the each just took the one wicket that was their responsibility as the bowler,  I don't think they did have the performance in which they should be specially highlighted. However, they made a good effort not to give runs and restrict India to only 124 runs.

[UmerIdrees]

Yes, But west indies didn't bowl well and England won it by huge 8 wickets and lead the series with 1-0. West indies batting well scored 180 plus runs but their bowling performance disappointing only Gudakesh Motie picked single wicket but giving to much runs. England chase down the big target in just loss of only 2 wickets. phill Salt played a classic inning scored a century and Jacob Bethell also batting well scored a half century 58 runs unbeaten from just 36 balls. The Player of the match is Phil Salt for his outstanding performance scored a well deserved century 103 runs remain unbeaten from just 54 balls. The Second match of series will be played tomorrow and England is favorite to win this match.

As England team was leading the game by winning the first match, I was thinking in the second game, West Indies will go great but this time too, they have not played well and lost the second game too against the England. But don't worry, I am still hoping that West Indies will win the next three matches and win the series very easily. I hope it will happen. West Indies has won the ODI series but they are struggling so far in the T20 series, let's see will they make a good come back in the series, the chances are low but we can hope for it.

Going in the summary of this match, England has won the toss and they decided to field first that was a good decision. West Indies was batting first and they gave the good target of 158, to make this normal target, they have lost their 8 players wickets. There was nothing special in their innings. They were losing thier wickets. Brandon King out on the start and from that time, bad vibes starting to came for them. Later the next players has also lost thier wickets and after doing much struggle they made 158 as target.

When the England team came to bat then in the first ball of the second innings Phil Salt has lost his wicket and England came in trouble but don't have to worry becasue after him, Jos Buttler played so fastly and made 83 at the 43 balls. Jos Buttler aslo was the player of the match on this performance and he helped the England to this win. England has chased the target at less than 15 overs. Such a nice victory for the England team.

If Samson could have played like the first match then it would not have been difficult to win this match. Some did not perform well in the match and there are some who scored high but their strike rate was very insignificant due to which the number of collection in the match did not increase. Hardik Pandya was able to score 39 runs in 45 balls in the match which no one expected from him. It is definitely difficult to win any match in such conditions. Such was the picture of the 2nd T20 match between India and South Africa. The 4-match series is still tied 1-1 in two matches but despite India having such a good squad they lost the 2nd match which was hard for me to accept even though nothing is guaranteed in cricket.

Well on 14th November we will have first match of Pakistan vs Australia t20 series after impressive victory of Pakistan against same opponent in ODI series, so in order to maintain competition and give opportunity to some new talent Pakistan try some new combination like pick usman , sufiyan , omair, arfat, jahamdad, and Farhan to check thier strength and dropped hasnain , Irfan, Jamal, saim and Abdullah. I know saim were in true form but I think management were in mood of experiment to make sure they have decent bench for upcoming event so such opportunity will give such player extra confidence as they will face one of top side so later on they played frealess cricket against rest of cricket team. Anyway Pakistan got momentum hope they will make some decent results in t20 series too

Only time will tell whether Pakistan can defeat Australia in the T20 series. However, after defeating Australia in the ODI series, Pakistan is hopeful of defeating Australia in the T20 series as well. However, it is not possible to say with certainty how many changes in the Pakistan squad will give Pakistan hope. However, the Pakistan squad is inducting a number of talented new players and some of the cold-tempered players especially Abdullah Shafiq and Saim Ayuib need to be replaced by some aggressive batting groups which Pakistan management is trying to manage at the moment. It is natural that aggressive players will be more important than cold-tempered players in T20, so several changes in Pakistan squad will make Pakistan much stronger.

South Africa vs India Today's third T20 match will be held, this match is on South Africa's home ground so South Africa has a chance of winning. However, we have seen that India won one match in two matches and South Africa won the other, currently the series result is 1/1. However, the odds of today's match are very much in favor of India's victory, so most people will probably bet on India in today's match. But I think that in today's match, the South African team will try to play well, if India wins today's match then they will advance in the series, if

While the last game was low scoring one, i wonder what pitch we see in today's match. The odds for both teams are pretty similar however India odds are slightly lower as we know that India is a better team than South Africa on papers. I would not say that anyone is favourite to win this match in the ground as it will depend upon who play better and take their chances.

In the context of the series, this match is utmost important. The team winning today will not only get the lead in the series plus it will also means that winner's of today cannot lose this series so they will go in the fourth T20 with a target to win the series.

Yes Pakistan win in ODI series has given them confidence for T20 series against Australia. By adding talented new players and replacing slower batsmen like Abdullah Shafiq and Saim Ayub with aggressive ones Pakistan chances will improve. T20 format requires bold playing making these changes important. Pakistan management is making smart decisions. With refreshed team Pakistan can potentially beat Australia in T20 series but only time will tell if these changes will succeed. So let's see what they both will do in this series.

Tomorrow is the first T20 game between Pakistan and the Australia. I think Pakistan is having such a good confidence in the T20 series because they are just coming after win back to back two ODI matches win.

However, I think Pakistan also having a good advantage which is that in the Australia squad there are not too much tough players like Travis Head, and Pat Cummins, they are taking rest because in the few days, they have to play a big trophy against India that is why they took rest and also they have to focus on the test matches that is why I think if they don't play the T20 games then it will be good for them.

Pakistan squad has several reliable batsmen especially Mohammad Rizwan, Babar Azam these two can perform well.  Moreover, those who will get new opportunities will surely try hard to strengthen their place in the squad to perform well. But in the bowling department Shahenshah Afridi, Harish Rauf, Nasim Shah these three bowlers are perfect enough for ODI and T20 cricket. If these bowlers can give their best performance in T20 then surely they will win in T20 series as well as in ODI series.

The third match and the fourth match of this series are left and these two matches can be a treat to watch. India has won the first match in such an amazing way and with good runrate but in the second game, they were facing trouble and they have lost the game but still third and the forth game is left to play.

I hope India wins it and make a good come back in the series as well. In the third match, I am going to bet on the India because I know they wins it and would not disappoint us. I suggest to everyone to bet on team India instead for South Africa. Just my gut feeling.

Absolutely agree with your statement that currently they have good confidence to defeat Australian in t20 series too after defeat in ODI series because some of thier major player like starc , head, cummin, Hazelwood, marsh will not be the part of thier t20 team so things will be a bit easy for Pakistan compared to when thier opponent have full strength squad so it's a opportunity to create history for a first time beat Australian in Australia in back to back two series. Also from some sources Pakistan are bring back thier old t20 opening duo Rizwan and Baber which may lead his team to a very good start just like as usual they does. So odds are really favoring them hope they fulfilled our expectations and will give Pakistan team a new shape and history 🔥

Hmmm.. don't get overexcited. Australia has good player depth. They don't need Starc, Head and Cummins to win home matches. And tomorrow's match will be played at the Brisbane Cricket Ground, where the Aussies have a good record. Spencer Johnson, Nathan Ellis and Sean Abbott are likely to be included in the playing XI, with Xavier Bartlett as the backup. It is not going to be easy for the Pakistani batsmen. Also, I want to see how consistent are the Pakistani bowlers (Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah and Shaheen Shah Afridi).

The high-voltage match between South Africa vs India in the third T20I is going to take place very soon. The captains of the two teams completed the toss at the scheduled time where the South African captain won the toss and they elected to field first after winning the toss. We saw one change each in the South Africa team and the India team. That is, the two parties have brought these changes to make their party more powerful. South Africa team could have fielded with their unchanged XI if they wanted as they beat India in the last match with this unchanged XI but they didn't do that they included another bowler instead of one bowler. Today's match is very important for both teams. The team that wins today's match will definitely go one step further to win the series from the opposite team.

Today's high voltage match is sure to be exciting but unfortunately Sanju Samson was bowled out straight away before any runs could be added to India's scoreboard. Played the best innings for India in the last match and scored a century but was bowled out directly on the second ball of the innings in today's match.

[JSRAW]

Folks were talking about Sanju's 2 back to back tons and for good reasons hyping him up nicely.

But Sanju is keen on keeping the tradition alive of inconsistency by 2 back to back ducks. . For the future, I'll Wait for hashtags of #JusticeforSanju if he gets dropped.

Played the best innings for India in the last match and scored a century but was bowled out directly on the second ball of the innings in today's match.

India and South Africa have their final match of the T20 series today and both the teams will be trying their best to win this match. Because the captains of these two teams may have a thought in their minds today that if they lose today, they will lose the series. Indian opening batsman Sanju Samson completed his century with an impeccable batting performance against South Africa in the first T20 match. But the interesting thing is that in the second and today's third T20 match against South Africa, he was dismissed for zero by the same bowler.

If the Indian batsmen are able to score more than 180 runs in today's match then maybe this match is going to be exciting and competitive. India's batsmen will need to put in an impeccable batting performance today to give South Africa a huge run target to win the third T20 match.
