T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Crypto Library]

It's Top End T20 Series (Australia) 2025 ongoing combinely between three international B teams, like Pakistan B, Bangladesh B and Nepal A main teams, alongside with eight different Australian and Americans base academic teams. So it's great initiative from cricket Australia to groom the young talent to provide them opportunity to show his skills in order to get opportunity in first class cricket as well as some franchise Cricket. It's true that things will be tough for academic player to compete with some pro but it will really help them to polish thier skills as well as will help them to get some experience while facing them

Umm, Got it, it's something like a cocktail tournament of some national teams and with some academic team. It seems like an interesting tournament, but all the matches are being played to find out the difference between the strong and weak teams in the eight tournaments, and besides, it is becoming very difficult for me to analyze this match to predict it.

The Chicago Kingsmen are an American T20 team, but it seems like they are giving the academy teams of Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Australia a hard time, which is really interesting, while the American cricket team can't keep up with them in the national squads.

Today was the match between Melbourne Stars Academy and Bangladesh A in the Top End series. Bangladesh A were batting first and if we look at their previous results so they were also losing multiple games before and for this game, I little bit knew that they are going to lose it too. Now Melbourne Stars Academy are on the fifth number and I hope that they will increase their rank more and will qualify for the Semi-Final.

So far the top four teams are
1  - Chicago Kingsmen
2 - Pakistan Shaheens
3 - Perth Scorchers Academy
4 - Northern Territory Strike

Yeh it was expected from Bangladesh B to lose that matches against Melbourne because they were not looking in true colors and lose most of thier previous matches terribly and that's why holding bottom of the table. While Melbourne Stars has some decent stats and it's more likely to qualify for semis alongside with the Pakistani shaheens and standing dominator Chicago Kingsmen, due to momentum they got and number of points they have. Hope so it will be interesting fight while it's clear that both of these national team Bangladesh and Nepal will have out of the tournament due to terrible performances.

But I had hope for Bangladesh A squad that they would win this today match because before starting match, in previous match, Bangladesh squad surprised everyone when they defeated Northern Territory Strike squad which is one of strong squads. But in today match, this kind of performance was not expected from Bangladesh players but gave hard time Melbourne squad. This match was very important for Bangladesh squad and no doubt opponent squad was also quite hard and challenging. Bangladesh A squad was started match with batting and batters were collected 156 scores as a defend. In bowling side, Bangladesh looked strong and top order batters of Melbourne squad displayed bad performance but Jonathan Merlo batter played really superb inning and he collected 61 scores for squad and supported in good way. Bangladesh A squad were participated in 5 matches and they just won 2 and position is 8th out of 11.

Chicago Kingsmen seems to be in terrific form. So far they have won all the 5 matches that they played at the Top End T20 Series. And given the fact that the team is mostly comprised of players who are eligible to represent the United States, I would say that this is an important development. They have a few overseas players in their team, such as Sharjeel Khan, Asif Mehmood, Syed Saad Ali and Scott Kuggeleijn, but the top performers were American players such as Shayan Jahangir and Hammad Azam.

Bangladesh A cricket team  gave excellent target in last match and they brilliant effort in this match as they made good target in this match. Afif Hossain was a person who did good job in this match and he made runs for the team but important thing is , he was not out in this match and Yasir Ali played crutial role because he played with excellent strike rate. Nurul Hasan was awarded as player of the match because he made 35 runs in this match and he also graped two catches in this match. Jordan Silk could not give win to his team because his effort was excellent in this match but team lost that match.Connor Carroll played with strike rate of 143 which was very best in this match. Northern Territory Strike cricket team lost the match by 22 runs.

But today they lost important game and total they lost 3 games and won 2. In Melbourne Stars Academy team vs Bangladesh A team, Melbourne Stars Academy team won toss and they got opportunity to take first bat or bowl and they elected bowling first and gave batting opportunity to Bangladesh A team. Bangladesh A team batted well but they set little bit small target 156 runs in 20 overs by losing 8 wickets. Saif struggle was very good and he made 45 runs in 35 balls ans hitted two 4s and one 6s. But all his effort was not much gave benefit to team because bowlers performed very poor and lost this game closely 3 wickets and 4 balls. Hamish bowled very well from Melbourne Stars Academy team and he took down 3 wickets in 4 overs and gave 21 runs. Melbourne Stars Academy team chased down all runs and Jonthan helped a lot team to win game and he scored 61 runs in 38 balls and hitting four 4s and three 6s.

There is a match between Nepal and Pakistan Shaheens coming up tomorrow. Both the teams are in good momentum, and Shaheens have won 3 out of the 5 matches they have played so far. And this will be the last match for both the teams in the Top End T20 Series, unless they qualify for the semi-final phase. Shaheens are currently on the second position in points table, so there is a chance that they may play the semis. Nepal has just 4 points from 5 matches, and for them it is going to be tough.

Today we will watch between Nepal cricket team and Pakistan Shaheens cricket team. Nepal cricket team performance is not good in the last few matches and they could lose this match because that team could win only 2 matches out of last , 5 matches.  The performance of Pakistan Shaheens football team was brilliant in last 5 matches and that team won 3 matches out of last 5 matches. But that is cricket and we could see different result from the stats and expections because any team could win the match against any team.Players have to give full effort to win this match and which team will play well will win the match as performance of Pakistan Shaheens is excellent in last matches.

Well Pakistani Shaheen done a brilliant job and finally seek his revenge against Adelaide Strikers Academy, maaz sadaqat the uncaped young sensation shocked everyone and scored his first ever maiden century on just 59 deliveries, alongside with his opening partner Yasir khan whome also able to scored his half century too. and thus Pakistani Shaheen scored a handsome target before innings end. While Adelaide during chased hardly able to scored below 100 and givenaway rest of his wickets and Shaheen won the math successful. But still they are two point behind from standing dominator hope in coming days they will overcome the situation.

Pakistani Shaheens beat Adelaide Strikers Academy and get their revenge with great win. Maaz Sadaqat played amazingly and score first hundred runs in just 59 balls. And Yasir Khan also did well with scoring fifty runs. Together they set huge goal for Adelaide. After that bowlers  did their job and stop Adelaide from scoring even hundred runs and winning match for Shaheens. This big win is great boost for team and they still need to catch up to top team in standings.

In this match, Pakistan Shaheens team gave a target of 202 runs to Adelaide Strikers Academy team. Both teams are very good teams and Adelaide Strikers Academy team could have easily completed this target but it could not happen and their team lost by 107 runs and none of the players of this team showed any special performance in this match due to which they faced failure. Pakistan Shaheens team had a very good start in which Yasir Khan scored 51 runs and Maaz Sadaqat scored 104 runs and made four runs in this match and the rest of the players also performed well and gave a good target which the opposing team could not meet and they faced failure and Pakistan team won this match and all the team showed hard work and dedication in this match like a good team.

When Bangladesh scored 156 runs target with excellent performance of Saif who scored 45 runs, their bowlers failed to stand consequently, and they lost by 3 wicket with remaining four balls. Hamish with 3 wickets and Jonathan 61 runs was fantastic scoring by Melbourne team in finishing match with win.

Looks like they forgot Shreyas Iyer.

It's not just Iyer. They didn't add Jaiswal or Sundar either which is hilarious to say the least. These morons keep sticking to players based on references instead of giving proper performers like Iyer their well deserved opportunities.

So many people want Iyer to become the captain of the T20 team or ODI team or both, but these corrupted fools keep blocking his upward progress consistently. Smh!

While India is having top quality players in all formats but sadly still things are never been working highly competitive and always concerns are coming after announcement of players for any tour or big event few players surely deserved to be had spot in for squad, but selectors are not going as they needed.

I check and have no argument about squad because they selected all players those deserved to be in team and players those are missing surely not bad, but sadly they have to select only 15 players and this is surely problem for them and then it's also problem for player fans those are not included in squad they started their social media war which is always at the top in every event.

It is really sad to see the retirement of cricketers from South Africa and West Indies. There are many cricketers who retire from their country's cricket just to play in foreign leagues. For this reason, many criticize these players, but if we consider their issues from the perspective of those players, then we will feel that what these players are doing is not wrong. The West Indies Cricket Board is not a developed enough cricket board, they cannot pay the players properly, many times such issues have come to the fore that West Indies players are coming to play the World Cup tournament on their own funds. Maybe no cricketer would want to ignore such a big offer of money and play for the national team for free, that is why they play cricket for the national team for a while and then when they get good recognition in foreign leagues, they retire from the national team and focus more on earning money.

The reason for retirement from the national team to play foreign leagues may be that the cricket board of that country has not been able to properly evaluate the players. If I talk about West Indies, then I have to say that most of the players from West Indies play foreign leagues more and so far there is no foreign league where West Indies players have not been seen on the field.
I think West Indies players retire very quickly to play foreign leagues because they do not get proper evaluation from the cricket board of the country.
As you said about South Africa, to be honest, I have not seen the players of the South African cricket team retire in that way.

Quinton de Kock, AB de Villiers, Faf du Plessis, JP Duminy might be good examples for you. Quinton de Kock retired from the South African national team despite being in great form only to give more priority to foreign leagues. Faf du Plessis retired a long time ago but when he decided to retire he was in great form, still I see Faf du Plessis playing in different T20 leagues especially IPL every season he is the auto choice of different teams. Again AB de Villiers' retirement was really unexpected and many thought that AB de Villiers might come out of retirement and return to the national team but that did not happen. Apart from the few names I have mentioned, I have seen many other cricketers who could have played more time for the national team but they retired from the national team only to give more priority to foreign leagues.

The whole 15 player excuse is just silly and stupid in my opinion since they have full control over who is in and out at the end of the day. It's their clear bias towards certain players which is the actual reason, but they clearly aren't gutsy enough to admit that.

India should most probably win the upcoming Asia Cup with any lineup, but it sucks to see supremely talented players like Iyer, Jaiswal etc not being included thanks to the shitty management.

One correction: 15 players restriction is not an excuse but rule and it depends on the tournament and it's organisers like ICC or ACC ( which includes substitute, backup or replacement).

Rules could be flexible for bilateral series but even they have limitations on squad.

The match between Pakistan Shaheens and Nepal going to be started in an hour or so. Nepal are the bottom side of the table they have 4 points but if they wins this game with such a good run rate then they may come to the Pakistan Shaheen's place on 3rd number. Because as you can see in the point table, that the team who are above Nepal having 6 points and their ranking is based upon the Net runrate. Infact at the moment five teams have total of six points each. On the other hand, the game holds equal importance for the Pakistan team and it would be great if they win. '

Nepal won their last two matches, so I would say that the momentum is with them. Shaheens on the other hand, has 3 wins from 5 matches to their name. And the important point to remember here is that this is going to be the last group phase match for both these teams. Shaheens need to win this match, in order to gain entry to the semi-finals. For Nepal, even if they win today's match they can't qualify for the semis. So far it has been a disappointing tournament for them, despite the occasional wins.

This game is surely going to be an easy win for the Pakistan Shaheens to win, and after winning this game, they will come to the second position as they have such a reasonable run rate by winning their game.

I am pretty excited to see Faisal Akram bowling today, such a wonderful bowler. I think Nepal, Bangladesh A, HH - A, and ACT are out of the league, but still, if something unexpected happens, they could make their comeback, but with low chances. Let 's see what is going to happen today; there is no chance for Nepal.

I don't think so that this much will be that much easy for the Pakistan Shaheens team. Because already we are  seeing that Pakistan Shaheen team lose their 9 wicket and after 19th over they two only 128 run which is very low in the case of T20 format.
And this is why I can also say that they can also be in struggle  in todays match. That I don't think that Pakistan Shaheen score will be much higher than 140 and this is not a good score in the case of t20 match. 
I would say that if any other team had been in Nepal's place in this match, they would have easily won the target of this score. Now it is to be seen how the bowlers of Pakistan Shaheens team perform, if they cannot do well, Nepal will definitely win today.

It is a rule being used as an excuse by Agarkar and the rest of the management in this specific case. They have the final say on who is in and out which is why this is a childish excuse to hide their true opinions.

These fools are still trying to push for an Indian all format captain when most feel that it's better to stick to separate captains for different formats at present. Smh!

Shaheesn batsmen not batted well and Irfan helped a lot by scoring 42 runs in 26 balls and hitted three 4s and one 6s. Two more batsmen made decent runs otherwise all remaining batsmen showed very poor and lost wickets after making small runs. Nepal performed very outstanding effort and they gave tough time to Shaheens team and they were very close to win game but unfortunately they lost game by 1 runs. Wasim and Faisal both bowlers bowled with great struggle and Wasim took down 2 wickets and wasim took down 2 wickets.

This was a match that could have been won by Nepal. But once again, they lost as a result of poor planning and captaincy. At one point, Pakistan was struggling at 74/7. But then Nepal allowed them to reach 144/9 in the next 7.3 overs. Their bowlers leaked a lot of runs during the depth overs, and dropped catches further made matters worse. And while batting, the openers (Aasif Sheikh and Kushal Bhurtel) wasted too many balls during the initial powerplay, which made it impossible for the middle order batsmen to chase down the target.
