Pakistan vs United Arab Emirates
In the last match of this group, Pakistan batted first and scored 146 runs. Fakhar Zaman scored a brilliant fifty for the team and Shaheen Afridi scored 29 runs off 14 balls towards the end. Whoever wins this match will go to the semi-finals. Now it is to be seen whether the United Arab Emirates can match this run.

Although I expected Pakistan to score above 160 runs, they ended their innings below 150 and besides Fakhar Zaman, I didn't see anyone else batting well. Most of the batsmen wasted the ball and scored less runs.
But we all know that Pakistani bowlers are capable of defeating the United Arab Emirates batsmen, so I hope that Pakistan will win this match. I can already see the United Arab Emirates team under pressure, but if they do not take three more wickets in the next five overs, then Pakistan may fall under pressure.

In today's T20I match between Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates, Pakistani batsman Saim Ayub achieved an important record that only three players have achieved in the past. Today, Siam Ayub created a record of hitting golden ducks in three consecutive T20 matches, making him the third player to do so for a full-time T20 player. In 2009, West Indies' Andre Fletcher hit three consecutive golden ducks. In 2012, Pakistan's Mohammad Hafeez hit three consecutive golden ducks in T20Is. And in today's Asia Cup, Pakistan's opening batsman Saim Ayub created the record of hitting three consecutive golden ducks.

This is not a good record for Saim Ayub and Pakistan. Except for Fakhar Zaman, no other Pakistani batsman could score as good as expected. After losing two wickets in the beginning, Fakhar Zaman and Salman Agha put on a 61-run partnership but after that Pakistan kept losing wickets as they lost six wickets before reaching 100 runs on the scoreboard. For UAE, Junaid Siddique bowled brilliantly and took 4 wickets for 18 runs in 4 overs. Had Shaheen Afridi not been able to collect 18 runs in the last over, Pakistan's runs would have been much less. However, in the end, Pakistan scored 146 runs for 9 wickets after the end of the allotted 20 overs. UEA will come out to bat shortly with a target of 147 runs to win. If UEA's opening batsmen can give a good start, then they have a chance to win today's match.

When Pakistan participates in big matches they play weakly, while they should build strength within themselves by playing well, but they are not able to do so in any way. In today's match too, they are playing against a weak team against whom they have scored only 146 runs which is very low. If their bowling is not strong, it will be easy for UAE to win this match. UAE batsmen are playing and they have scored 44 runs in 7 overs so far. Pakistan bowlers are trying to stop UAE's run and their hard work can make it quite easy. But I hope Pakistan will win this match because their bowling is moving towards success. If they lead themselves towards negligence then this victory will become a very bad defeat for them.

Ireland's performance in the first match of the T20 series was extraordinary. Compared to England, Ireland batted and bowled quite well, I would say that Ireland put in enough effort to win the match. However, England won today's match by only four wickets, if Ireland could have bowled a little better and put pressure on England, they would have had a chance of winning. Ireland batted first and scored 196 runs for the loss of only 3 wickets, the team's batsmen bowled well, due to which they scored a big score. However, if Ireland could have dismissed England's Philip Salt batsman in the beginning of today's match, they could have easily defeated England. But in this match, England's batsman Philip Salt was able to win the match due to his good batting.

England team played a strong game  and also showing amazing performance. It's great to hear that they are making good progress and wining games. I hope they continue to play well and keep wining in the future too. England team won the game by 4 wickets and 14 balls. The 1st match between England and Ireland team was held at  The Village stadium. England won the toss and elected to bowling first. Team members gave a very good team performance. The best batting performance in England team was by Phil Salt  scored 89 runs and 46 balls hitting 10 fours and 4 sixs. Congratulations England for upcoming matches.

First of all, there was doubt about whether the Pakistan vs United Arab Emirates match would be held, but even though the match started an hour late, Pakistan really performed badly in the first innings against United Arab Emirates. I never expected to see such a performance from a team like Pakistan in such a big ICC tournament. Pakistan suffered a lot of batting disaster against United Arab Emirates in the first innings and they struggled a lot and scored only 146 runs for nine wickets. Initially, it seemed like United Arab Emirates batting would defeat Pakistan, but later Pakistan's bowlers bowled well and they are now on the verge of victory. While India defeated United Arab Emirates in a very limited overs, Pakistan's defeat against United Arab Emirates was possible, which proves that Pakistan is currently a much weaker team than India.

It felt like they were playing with their own B team and struggling to breakthrough. I expected much more from Pakistan. But they did perform worst against UAE , India showed a great resilience and excellent performance. Pak won by 41 runs there could have a big score gap . Sad for umpire who got hurt during the match

What an outstanding play was England Vs Ireland . If anyone loved power hitting this match was for them. Salt batted so well . England is coming back to action once again.

What an outstanding play was England Vs Ireland . If anyone loved power hitting this match was for them. Salt batted so well . England is coming back to action once again.

Ireland scored a big score of 196 runs for the loss of just 3 wickets against england's strong bowling order. This is undoubtedly a big achievement for Ireland. Although  they lost the match, it cannot be denied  that Ireland performed well. If Ireland's bowlers could have bowled well, they had a chance to win. England reached the target of victory in  17.4 overs losing 6 wickets. Phil Salt played the most important innings of 89 runs off 46 balls. Apart from that, Jos Buttler, Bethell and Sam curran played quite well. Buttler scored 28 runs off just 10 balls.

I would also say the same thing because team like Ireland when they were playing against the strongest team like England we expected them as usual common run around  of 120 but in this case we saw Ireland batters are also stay very chilly against the England bowlers.

And in this case even then Ireland team lose this match they show us a competitive performance against England team where we all know that Ireland team was the underdog team. Even then in my mind when I saw this kinds of series it's say What is the real meaning of these series where the opposing teams are much weaker than each other?
However, after watching the batting performance of the Irish team today, I feel that there is something to be learned from these series as well.

It is foolish to expect anything good from Pakistan. Especially their batting order performance is very erratic. Pakistani batsmen could not play well against UAE. Even then Pakistan team was able to win, congratulations to them.
Pakistan could collect only 146 runs after losing 9 wickets. Except Fakhar Zaman and Shaheen Shah Afridi, no one else could bat well. Opener Sahibzada Farhan collected only 5 runs from 12 balls. Agha Salman was able to play an innings of 20 runs from 27 balls. Pakistan will play against India in Super 4. No doubt Pakistan is going to lose this match too

In this regard, I think most people are now feeling the lack of experienced players like Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam in the Pakistan squad because they are facing a lot of struggle to score batting scores against both weak and strong teams.
And yes, if Pakistan plays a match against India in the Super Four, they will definitely lose, and maybe we will see the loss in a worse light than in the last match. Because such a victory reduces confidence more than it increases it because the United Arab Emirates is a very weak team and the Pakistan team has to struggle to win against them, especially in terms of batting.

If Pakistan performs like this against weak team, how will they fight to win against India? If a team's condition is such that they are in a weak position at the beginning of the game, then the interest in that match starts to decrease. Pakistan's current performance is also like that. If they cannot do well against the UAE bowlers, then how will they beat the Indian bowlers? There is nothing to complain about the pitch conditions because India performs well enough and if they need a score of 200, they will collect it.

Well Ireland has rich extension cricketing history and they are full cricketing member for a long team, but lack of focusing on thier domestic cricket structure they failed to get some big game changer and that why even having huge experience still they failed to secure a vital victory against strong opponent at major events and series, but yeh today they really deliver an impressive act of play. While on the other hand england after tieing thier previous series with proteas by 1-1 continue his victory streak against Ireland after having such decent Target for them at bat first. Honestly salt were really impressing everyone now days as he really diverting matches for his team singlehandedly and that's really strengthen English side.

Pakistan team will play and there will be no drama there, what happens! But in the end, the game was played even though it was late and Pakistan won, congratulations to Pakistan. However, although Pakistan did not perform as expected by the audience, the target of 147 runs given to them seemed like they would win because the pitch was very slow, especially the outfield was slow. But one thing everyone should remember is that Pakistan is the most unpredictable team in the world. When they gave a target of 147 runs, I was confident because Pakistan would not play the semi-finals in the Asia Cup, which could have been very disappointing for the Pakistani audience, but Fakhar Zaman's 50 runs off 36 balls and Shaheen-shah Afridi's 29 runs off 14 balls helped Pakistan to score a fighting score, although it was not a lot of runs, but later on, because of the good bowling of the Pakistani players, they were able to keep their team in the Asia Cup.  However, it is true that it was not very difficult to chase down 146 runs, but the main reason they lost was because of the UAE's batting disaster, otherwise they had a chance to win.

Pakistan faced a humiliating defeat in the first match against India. Pakistan was given a target of just 128 runs. India won very easily. India and Pakistan are going to face each other again in the Super Four. And I am sure Pakistan will lose again. It is impossible to beat a team like India with such bad and inconsistent performance. Pakistani players have the capacity to perform well. They are quite talented and experienced. But every player in the squad has been inconsistent in their performance. This is their main weakness.

Yes Pakistan have talented players but they have a weak mentality. Their batting against UAE was not good at all as they lost the crucial wicket of Saim Ayub in the first over and the second wicket for 9 runs. After the humiliating defeat against India, they needed more practice to improve their weak points but they are repeating the same mistakes. If they face India again in the Super Four, Pakistan will lose again. They are so mentally disturbed on the day of the match against India that they cannot compete. I have seen this trend in the past too. I think Pakistan team needs a major change and practice is more important to improve their mental health.

They somehow managed to get full points from the match versus the United Arab Emirates. At one point, Pakistan was struggling at 93/6. But then the big hits from Shaheen Shah Afridi and Mohammad Haris took them to a respectable total of 146/9. Once they crossed 140, it was beyond the reach of the UAE batsmen, especially against experienced bowlers such as Haris Rauf and Shaheen Shah Afridi. Rahul Chopra and Dhruv Parashar tried their best, but the lower and middle order collapsed like a peck of cards.

It's only because of Shaheen Shah hitting towards the end that took Pakistan score to 146. Saim Ayub got his third straight duck of this tournament. This match clearly shows how weak Pakistan batting is, if they can't play UAE bowlers then how can they face Indian and Sri Lankan bowlers in next round. Pakistan should have given a target of 180 runs in yesterday match but they struggled to score runs against UAE. This tournament has made Shaheen Shah a real all-rounder though he was previously known as genuine fast bowler.

The performance of Pakistani top order batsmen is terrible now. We will not find a batsman in the squad who is capable of batting responsibly. Pakistan was able to collect 127 because of Shaheen Shah Afridi's innings of 33 runs off 16 balls against India. Afridi scored 29 runs off 14 balls against UAE. If Pakistani top order players do not return to form, good performance cannot be expected from this team. Pakistan will lose again against India by a big margin in Super 4 if the performance of their batsmen does not improve. With such a bad state of performance, Pakistan will not be able to win any match in Super 4.

[Crypto Library]

It felt like they were playing with their own B team and struggling to breakthrough. I expected much more from Pakistan. But they did perform worst against UAE , India showed a great resilience and excellent performance. Pak won by 41 runs there could have a big score gap . Sad for umpire who got hurt during the match

Actually in the case of batting performance from Pakistan team in this match wasn't expected that they will got stuck in only 146 Run.
However, Pakistan team played well in the later bowling innings as I said in my post that if Pakistan team cannot take three wickets in the next pass over then the pressure will come on them but here Pakistan team was able to successfully create pressure on United Arab Emirates team and as a result of which wickets fell faster later on, and the final result gave Pakistan victory.
However, we all know what will happen in Pakistan's next match. India and Pakistan will never be able to win with their current team and form.


And what are your thoughts on today's match? Between Afghanistan and Sri Lanka, which team do you want to see as the winner or do you think will win?

And what are your thoughts on today's match? Between Afghanistan and Sri Lanka, which team do you want to see as the winner or do you think will win?

If Afghanistan wins today's match, Bangladesh will definitely be eliminated, in which case Sri Lanka and Afghanistan will qualify for the second round.
Again, if Afghanistan can beat Sri Lanka by a big margin of 75 runs, then Bangladesh and Afghanistan will qualify for the second round. If Sri Lanka wins, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka will qualify. However, for now, I will consider Sri Lanka as the favorite and think that Sri Lanka will win today's match.

[ThemePen]

This match clearly shows how weak Pakistan batting is, if they can't play UAE bowlers then how can they face Indian and Sri Lankan bowlers in next round. Pakistan should have given a target of 180 runs in yesterday match but they struggled to score runs against UAE. This tournament has made Shaheen Shah a real all-rounder though he was previously known as genuine fast bowler.

Their batting was big concern as they only scored 146 runs against UAE. Saim Ayub third duck in row was also problem. However best thing for Pakistan was Shaheen Shah Afridi who saved team with his quick 29 runs and took key wickets. He is becoming real all-rounder which is huge help. Win puts Pakistan in next round but they will need to fix their batting problems to compete against stronger teams like India and Sri Lanka.
