T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[noormcs5]

Another series for Pakistan, three T20Is with the Australian team. All the games are scheduled to be played in Lahore and on the PCB site, tickets have been available online since yesterday.

Neither of the teams announced their squad for this tour and even Pakistan did not announce for the World Cup, whereas Australia have done this. I think Australia should protect their key players from injury for the tournament and let some other players come into the squad and think about the future.

They will arrive in Pakistan on Wednesday, as all three matches will be played at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. The matches are scheduled for January 29, January 31, and February 1. All the matches are very important for both teams, as the T20 World Cup 2026 will start soon, and Pakistan is located in Group A while Australia is in Group B. All the matches will start at 6 PM PKT. The games will be full of thrill, as Australia has a strong team, while Pakistan doesn't want to lose any match on their home ground. We will see a big fight between them.

Since the series is being organized as a preparation for the World Cup, both the teams will play the series with the teams announced for the World Cup. But they will definitely use the players carefully. Winning or losing the series will not be their main objective, but rather to prepare well.

We may see players in the field who are outside the World Cup team or will be careful during practice and stay away from risky practices. But they will play with the starting XI.

Are you fully sure that the players that the Australian team has included in their squad for this Pakistan series are also included in their squad for the T20 World Cup? If that is the case, then I would also say that the Australian team should finish this series with their secondary players in the squad, and besides, there is a possibility of winning against Pakistan even if their secondary players play.

We will be able to see more clearly who will be in the squad for this series when the match starts, but even if we don't see any changes to Australia's squad, we will have to consider whether they will use this match as preparation for testing the players.

Yeh definitely that's interesting and were expecting to bring some ordinary clashes for fan, Pakistan were expecting to continue his innings with his full fledged squad for world cup because somehow they will be tested against quality player for better preparation before world cup. Rest of clashes will be held at Lahore Gaddafi Stadium, while I was expecting a 5 matches series as Pakistan already filled Australian board demand to keep his star player at BBL at Sirilankan series. Anyway management should try his young name for strengthen thier bench for world cup.

It is smart choice to play whole series in Gaddafi stadium since it can make sure that players do not get tired ahead of world cup and crowd plays in loud and high pressure conditions. Although Australia has already picked their team to take part in world cup as way of giving their players some calmness, Pakistan is waiting till very end to use these matches as test run for their players. It is fair that Australia keep their star players such as Mitchell Starc safe to stop cases of injury so that they can try out younger players in future. Interestingly, PCB is also using special hybrid pitches in Lahore that seem to be same as one in India and Sri Lanka, making this series great training camp for both teams. This will allow Australia to protect their players as well as provide their subs with chance to train against Pakistani fast bowlers in real life situations.

Actually, the purpose of such a warm-up match before the start of any big tournament is only one, and that is a real preparation before the start of the big tournament. However, in this case, I don't know how much the Pakistan Cricket Board has been able to create a hybrid pitch similar to India or Sri Lanka, but I would consider this decision as the smartest decision.
At the same time, I would say that not only in Australia, but also in Pakistan, if any of their players are prone to injuries, they should be rested, but if this series can be played with the full squad, I think it will be best for both teams.

Afghanistan vs West Indies

Today is very important game since it will help both Afghanistan and West Indies to get ready for T20 World Cup that will start in next one month. Afghanistan is very strong nowadays as their captain, Rashid Khan, has returned to lead their famous spin bowling attack on dry grounds in Sharjah.

West Indies have lost some of their star players who stay in South Africa but they still have strong hitting players such as Evin Lewis who can score runs quickly. Game is also chance to get even, as junior team of Afghanistan won match against junior team of West Indies last night. I think that Afghanistan has advantage as their bowlers are best fitted to such local places and West Indies may not be able to score against such good spin by such great bowlers.

Yes, the upcoming T20 World Cup is going to start from the 7th of next month, so this series is important for both the teams, so through this series, both the teams can prepare well and find out their weak points. However, West Indies are not in good form at the moment, they are not as strong as they were in the past. They lost 3-1 against New Zealand in the last series. Now Afghanistan is not a bad team in T20, especially Afghanistan's strong spin bowling which can be challenging for West Indies. However, in the last 5 matches between these two teams, West Indies has won 2 matches and Afghanistan has won 3 matches. Also, we can say that Dubai International Cricket Stadium is Afghanistan's home ground, so based on performance, I would like to put Afghanistan a little ahead. But I hope the matches can be competitive.

[Out of mind]

In the first T20 match between Afghanistan vs West Indies, Afghanistan is batting in the opening and they have already lost two wickets in their power play. There are good players in Afghanistan and West Indies teams. Each team plays well in T20 matches, but the victory will depend on how well Afghanistan can score in today's match. However, West Indies players can bat very well. They are very skilled in T20 matches, in that case, they will definitely try their best to win against Afghanistan in today's match. If the pair of Darwish Rasooli and Ibrahim Zadran lasts for a long time, Afghanistan can collect a lot of runs, of course, today's match is more likely to be won by Afghanistan. However, if they cannot do well in bowling, then there will be no chance of winning against West Indies, in that case, they will have to perform well.

Afghanistan vs West Indies

Afghanistan vs West Indies are evenly matched teams. Both teams have a chance to win. There is no doubt that this match will be very competitive.

Afghanistan won the toss and decided to bat. They lost Gurbaz's wicket on the first ball. And they lost their second wicket for 19 runs. Afghanistan managed to score 51 runs in 6 overs of the power play. Ibrahim Zadran scored 32 runs and Rasooli scored 15 runs. Both the batsmen are batting responsibly. I estimate that Afghanistan will give a target of 180+ today.

Yes of course this World Cup will be played from February 6 to March 8 and 20 teams have been included in it and four groups be formed and each group include five teams.The series that is being played before the World Cup is a great practice for the playing teams.This practice will help them in the World Cup.West Indies is not showing itself to be a disciplined team and West Indies mostly faces defeat so they do not have a chance to prove themselves better in the World Cup yet. Along with them Afghanistan has qualified for the World Cup.The series between West Indies and Afghanistan has been won and after them the series between Pakistan and Australia is starting.which is being played for their practice.

West Indies team not in good form these days, we recently saw West Indies losing 3 match T20I series to Nepal in last September. Afghanistan is much stronger team compared to Nepal and that means West Indies need to work hard to win this game. Afghanistan so far doing good in first T20I, after 14 overs Afghanistan score is 111 and two wickets have gone down. Ibrahim Zadran along with Darwish Rasooli is on the crease and both batsmen have completed half centuries. The projected score for Afghanistan is 175 and if that is achieved then it will be a challenge for West Indies team to win this game.

Your guess is correct. Afghanistan team managed to score 181 runs. Considering the condition of the pitch, this is definitely a good total. Interestingly, Afghanistan lost 2 wickets for just 19 runs. Their total at the end of 20 overs was 181/3. West Indies bowlers managed to take only three wickets. Zadran-Rasooli pair managed to score 162 runs. Zadran's total was 87 and Rasooli's total was 84.

West Indies bowlers could not do well. West Indies are strong in T20 format. But the team is not in good form right now. Afghanistan's dangerous 182 runs will be very difficult for West Indies. Afghanistan's chances of winning are high.

T20 is unpredictable format and WIndies despite not having good form can win this match. 182 is defiantly not an easy target but WIndies have hitters in there batting lineup that have the capability to play big shots and score runs. After 3 overs, the score of WIndies is 20 runs and they have lost the wicket of Brandon King. WIndies need to accelerate the scoring rate otherwise it will be difficult for them to win this match. Afghanistan have done the hard work in batting and now its up to there bowlers to win the game.

West Indies on tour of the UAE to face Afghanistan as they are preparing for the big ICC T20 World Cup which is going to start in few days in India and Sri Lanka, today in first game, they got good start but Ibrahim Zadran 87 and Darwish Rasooli 84 steal the show with their big partnership of 162 which bring their total on 181 at the end of 20 overs. West Indian bowlers faced troubling time with Shamar Joseph conceded 40 runs in 4 overs.

In second innings, West Indies lost their captain in first over as Mujibur Rahman struck and give setback, at the end of 3 overs they are on 20 for 1 still long way to go against quality spin bowling of Afghanistan.

This West Indies squad does not have the ability to win the target of 182 runs. West Indies cricket is not in good shape now. Their performance is weak now. It is very difficult for this West Indies squad to win even against teams like Bangladesh or Zimbabwe in the T20 format.

None of the batsmen in the West Indies squad played well. Quentin Sampson was the highest scorer. He scored 30 runs from 24 balls. West Indies lost the match by 38 runs. 3 T20 matches will be held in this series. And I am sure Afghanistan will win the series. The overall condition of West Indies does not seem good to me today.

[Mahdirakib]

~snip~ WIndies need to accelerate the scoring rate otherwise it will be difficult for them to win this match. Afghanistan have done the hard work in batting and now its up to there bowlers to win the game.

West Indies have lost the match by a big margin as their batsmen couldn't perform well. They just kept losing wickets without having any effective partnership. West Indies had some well-experienced batsmen in the squad, none of them played well in the match. As always, some bowlers of Afghanistan have done so well in the match. It helped them to win the match easily.

Afghanistan outstanding performance in start of T20 series winning their first match against West indies. West indies give very disappointed performance in this match while chasing down a 180 plus runs target only managed to score 143 runs by lossing its nine wickets and lost match bu 38 runs margin. The man of The Match is Darwish Rasooli for his impressive batting performance scored a well deserved half century and out after scoring 84 runs from just 59 balls, brahim Zadran also played an important inning of 87 runs and remain unbeaten at the end of inning and assisted Afghanistan to posted 180 plus Target and lead the series with 1-0.

Afghanistan vs West Indies

1st T20I between Afghanistan and West Indies today is great example of how far Afghan team is improving, especially in their skills to take over game to lead and hit back at same time. West Indies bowlers were attacked early on which helped Afghanistan to set very good target of 182 runs. Afghan bowling attack, with exactness of their world famous spinners, completely stopped power hitters of West Indies, when it was time to protect score. Winning moment was surely power play, three key wickets were lost by West Indies, and they could not get back because needed rate of runs became out of their reach. 38 runs gap of win is clear sign that Afghanistan is ready to test best teams in world by mixing their old bowling skill and new batting form.
