T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[captain4India]

Ireland decimated Oman like they were nothing at all while England stuttered a bit when chasing a modest total against Scotland. New Zealand vs South Africa looks like it will end up in the Proteas favor since Kiwi bowling has been pretty crap lately.

Out of all the teams, West Indies is the one that impressed me the most since they are performing well in all departments. India is the next best one in my opinion.

Most of the big teams are struggling badly I have strong feeling India and South Africa are going to be stayed at top no one going to challenge them just West Indies can give surprise because they are always on for this in any event.
Tomorrow 3 games Nepal vs West Indies, USA vs Namibia and India vs Pakistan I am going to be having parlay adding Australia w tomorrow first game between Australia w vs India w at Sydney give your views about my parlay is this ok.

The Big aren't Struggling that Badly but rather the Small teams are playing really Well. It's injustice to say that the smaller team haven't performed well and Won just because the bigger team did not have "good form". Well all of the bigger teams getting in bad form isn't coincidental but it proves that cricket is evolving and "small" teams are getting better which is great. Cricket won't just remain a sport dominated by a few handful of countries and competition will arise which will make cricket more interesting. It can't reach the level of Football but can become comparable.

Despite the top order not playing well, Chapman, Mitchell and Neesham's responsible batting allowed New Zealand to post 175 for 7 wickets. This is definitely a good total. Chapman scored the highest 48 runs. Daryl Mitchell and Finn Allen scored 32 and 31 runs respectively.
There is no point in saying that the target is too big. South Africa has a high chance of winning this target. Their batting order is also strong. But if New Zealand's bowlers can bowl in a controlled manner from the start of the innings, then they have a chance of winning. 175 runs is enough to fight for.

South Africa have scored 138 runs in 13 overs. They have lost only three wickets. They do not seem to be losing this match. They need only 38 runs from 42 balls to win.
New Zealand's bowlers have failed to do well. Aiden Markram is batting very aggressively. He is still unbeaten at the crease after scoring 68 runs from 31 balls. New Zealand performed very badly today. Even the top order batsmen could not do well, now their bowlers' performance is also weak.

[Compromise me]

Scotland and England face each other in the 23rd match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup today, where Scotland were bowled out for 152 after batting first. The target of 152 runs in this World Cup is not a difficult total and England will meet this total very easily.

However, England were put under pressure early on when their first wicket fell for 2 runs and their second wicket fell for 13 runs. However, England's Jacob Bethell and Tom Benton formed a good partnership and were able to bring England out of that pressure. Now they need to score 74 runs in 9.3 overs, which will not be a difficult situation for England as they still have 7 wickets in hand.

English team lost 2 early wickets and that raised hope of Scotland victory, which would be second upset of this tournament. Thanks to Jacob Bethell and Tom Banton partnership that brought English back in the game. Scotland got two breakthrough in 9th and 10th over, which once again raised chances of Scotland victory but Scottish bowlers were not able to pick wicket of Tom Banton and he remained not out on 63 runs. Scotland team lost the game but they displayed good skills in bowling.   

Scotland International T20 cricket team batting was very bad in the acceleration period and they could not make good score and they made 30 runs short and players should try to stay on wicket but they played bad short and opponent team got opportunity and took catch and adil Rashid played very excellent in the last overs and they restricted opponent team at just 150 runs. Scotland team gave good effort in bowling but after that England team managed the pressure of the match and they won the match in the second last over. England team is very strong team and they need to learn from these teams because these are associated nations but they are fighting well to win matches against big teams and Nepal gave tough Time in first match also .

South Africa have scored 138 runs in 13 overs. They have lost only three wickets. They do not seem to be losing this match. They need only 38 runs from 42 balls to win.
New Zealand's bowlers have failed to do well. Aiden Markram is batting very aggressively. He is still unbeaten at the crease after scoring 68 runs from 31 balls. New Zealand performed very badly today. Even the top order batsmen could not do well, now their bowlers' performance is also weak.

New Zealand's batting and bowling are not performing well. Narendra Modi Stadium is ideal for both batsmen and bowlers. If New Zealand could have scored 200+ runs, they might have had the capital to fight. But New Zealand is not able to bowl as tightly as they needed to to defend 175 runs.

On the other hand, South Africa's batsmen are not to be praised, but the South African batsmen are playing well from the top order. Due to the devastating batting of the opening pair, South Africa scored 83 runs in 6 overs of the power play, losing only one wicket. Aiden Markram was excellent today and everyone else was very aggressive. South Africa's victory is almost certain now.

Australia has lost world cup matches against teams like Zimbabwe. It's a shame for Australia. Australia have been very poor in  both batting and bowling. The bowlers could not do well so Zimbabwe lost only 2 wickets and set a target of 170 runs. Brian bennett played an unbeaten innings of 64 runs. On the other hand, australian batsmen can't do well either. Matt renshaw scored 65 runs. Besides, although maxwell can bat a bit better, none of the other batsmen in the australian squad can play well. Zimbabwean  bowlers muzarbani and Brad Evans destroyed australia's batting order. Both of them took 7 wickets.

It's amazing, last time in the ICC T20 World Cup of 2022, they beat Pakistan in the big match and this time it's Australia. Zimbabwe is not Zimbabwe anymore. Zimbabwe 2 on 2, the nightmare for them was only Australia team and I hope so that the next games will be easy for them.

They just have to beat Ireland and Sri  Lanka, even if they lose against Sri Lanka, nothing much already they are most likely to secure their place for the Super 8, while we might not likely to see Australia there.

  Zimbabwe defeated the Australian national team by 23 runs. Australia decided to field first and scored 146 runs for their team, and in return, Zimbabwe's team scored 169 runs. This match was a great victory for Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe's team chased 50 runs in 38 balls in the first 6 overs, and in return, Australia's team scored 50 runs in 7 overs, and only two of their opponents were dismissed. Only 4 Zimbabwe players won today's match brilliantly, in which two players scored 35.  Scored runs and out of them Brian Bennett scored 64 runs against his entire team and compared to them only two players from Australia scored slightly better numbers in which Matt Renshaw scored 65 runs to increase his team's numbers and one player from Australia Matthew Kuhnemann was out after scoring only zero runs. If he wanted to, he could have made a little effort and scored numbers for his team but he did not try due to which Zimbabwe showed their brilliant performance

New Zealand's batting and bowling are not performing well. Narendra Modi Stadium is ideal for both batsmen and bowlers. If New Zealand could have scored 200+ runs, they might have had the capital to fight. But New Zealand is not able to bowl as tightly as they needed to to defend 175 runs.

On the other hand, South Africa's batsmen are not to be praised, but the South African batsmen are playing well from the top order. Due to the devastating batting of the opening pair, South Africa scored 83 runs in 6 overs of the power play, losing only one wicket. Aiden Markram was excellent today and everyone else was very aggressive. South Africa's victory is almost certain now.

New Zealand lost the match today, but they will comfortably qualify for the Super8. Afghanistan performed pathetically in the tournament so far, which has allowed both South Africa and New Zealand to qualify for the Super8. More interesting is Group B, where Australia is now at the third position in the points table. Zimbabwe managed to defeat them in their last match, which allowed them to overtake the Proteas in the table. Sri Lanka are the table toppers. Australia may still qualify ahead of Zimbabwe, but the remaining matches are very crucial for them. And their next matches are against Sri Lanka and Oman.

Scotland and England face each other in the 23rd match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup today, where Scotland were bowled out for 152 after batting first. The target of 152 runs in this World Cup is not a difficult total and England will meet this total very easily.

However, England were put under pressure early on when their first wicket fell for 2 runs and their second wicket fell for 13 runs. However, England's Jacob Bethell and Tom Benton formed a good partnership and were able to bring England out of that pressure. Now they need to score 74 runs in 9.3 overs, which will not be a difficult situation for England as they still have 7 wickets in hand.

This 23rd match of the series between Scotland and England was the best performance of the England team out of both the teams because when they bowled, they dismissed all the players of the first team, which is the Scotland team, in about 19 overs and when they took the bat themselves, they completed the target given to them in about 18 two balls, which was 152 runs. If you look at it, the Scotland team has a good record in the table and is moving to the second position, but they faced failure in this match, which reduced their quality and standard a little. But if we talk about performance, their good players who failed in this match, I don't know if it was because of pressure or some other reason, but the other team definitely took advantage of this and made a name for themselves. They tried to bring the England team under pressure in the beginning, but Tom Banton supported his team on the basis of his brilliant performance and won the match brilliantly.

[Out of mind]

South Africa team performed well in today's match against New Zealand and they won. Although New Zealand team tried hard enough to put South Africa under pressure but they could not succeed rather South Africa team scored runs very quickly and won. In this match South Africa team won by a huge margin of 7 wickets they really did a very good batting performance in the power play. Aiden Markram is a great captain and he opened the batting and brought the team victory and remained unbeaten with 86 runs. South Africa has won each of the three matches so far which is why they are at the top of the points table in Group D, South Africa team seems to be the strongest in this group at present. New Zealand and South Africa are two strong teams and South Africa have defeated New Zealand in today's match and raised their position in South Africa.

[Unknown Op]

South Africa won the toss and decided to field. And they are bowling quite well. New Zealand managed to collect 71 runs in 7 overs. The run rate is quite good. But they have already lost four wickets. All four batsmen of the top order have returned to the dressing room. Except Finn Allen, no one else could bat well. Allen played an innings of 31 runs off 17 balls. Chapman and Daryl Mitchell are now at the crease. Apart from that, Sartner and Neesham are also capable of batting well. If these four batsmen can play well, New Zealand still has the possibility of giving a big target.

This time the match is making enough a reverse result. This match was ready to go in their favor easily, but the way they are batting, I don't think they will succeed in this way. Compared to New Zealand, South Africa is making their bowling quite good and strong, due to which the New Zealand batsmen are not scoring many runs carelessly. South African bowlers are also controlling the runs and are also getting their wickets so that the target is becoming enough easy for them which will make their victory easy. New Zealand batsmen have scored 65 runs in 7 overs so far and if the South African bowlers try a little harder, New Zealand will become very poor and defeat will come very easily for them, so New Zealand will have to play strong, so they will have to play with good effort.

Out of today’s ICC Men World Cup matches this was best and most enjoyable match where we got to see a tough and interesting fight among South Africa and New Zealand squads. Apart from this match, two more matches were played today. In match South Africa against New Zealand squad, New Zealand squad was begun match first with batting inning and batters were managed to collect 175 scores as a defending after playing 20 overs inning. Marco Jansen bowler played important role in getting victory and he picked up 4 significant wickets. Aiden Markram batter was top scorer and top performer from South Africa squad and he really played amazing inning today and he collected 86 scores off 44 deliveries. With 7 wickets and 17 deliveries, South Africa squad succeeded to defeat New Zealand squad.

South Africa team performed well in today's match against New Zealand and they won. Although New Zealand team tried hard enough to put South Africa under pressure but they could not succeed rather South Africa team scored runs very quickly and won. In this match South Africa team won by a huge margin of 7 wickets they really did a very good batting performance in the power play. Aiden Markram is a great captain and he opened the batting and brought the team victory and remained unbeaten with 86 runs. South Africa has won each of the three matches so far which is why they are at the top of the points table in Group D, South Africa team seems to be the strongest in this group at present. New Zealand and South Africa are two strong teams and South Africa have defeated New Zealand in today's match and raised their position in South Africa.

Nothing wrong with New Zealand batting today, there batting gave a target of 175 runs which is quite reasonable. Mark Chapman and Daryl Mitchell played brilliantly and helped New Zealand in scoring good runs. Marco Jansen was expensive in bowling but he picked 4 key wickets. Aiden Markram remained not out on 86 runs and due to responsible batting of South African players, they won the match in 18th over. From Group D, South Africa already qualified for the super eight while second team will be New Zealand.

[Farhan99]

Scotland vs England is the match that will be played today. Scotland is already in the second position in the points table. Scotland has lost one of the two matches and won one, while England has won one of the two matches. However, today's match will depend on the position of the two teams. If England can win, they will move up. Although England is quite strong compared to Scotland in this match and if they play strongly, they will be able to win. England has already chosen to bowl to follow a target and Scotland is batting at the moment, but they have already lost one of their important wickets in the power play, which has put them under pressure. They will definitely be under pressure due to the fall of their wickets at the beginning. However, this match against England will be difficult for them, England will have a higher chance of winning.

Yrah, In the Men's T20  World Cup England defeated Scotland by 5 wickets. Scotland opens inning first with George Munsey and Michael Jones and among the openers Jones give a very positive start to the team by scoring 33 runs but Munsey losses his wicket early on 4 runs and in middle order Berinngton played a well knock of 49 runs and also Tom Bruce played a well innings of 24 runs and at the end of the innings Scotland set a good target of 153 runs.

England opens inning with Jos Butler and Phil Salt and both the openers don't gives a positive start to the team and Salt scores only 2 runs and also Butler losses his wicket early on 3 runs and in middle order Tom Banton played memorable innings of  63 runs and also with the help of Sam Curran's 28 runs England can easily chase the target and won the game by 5 wickets.

[Smack That Ace]

Nothing wrong with New Zealand batting today, there batting gave a target of 175 runs which is quite reasonable. Mark Chapman and Daryl Mitchell played brilliantly and helped New Zealand in scoring good runs. Marco Jansen was expensive in bowling but he picked 4 key wickets. Aiden Markram remained not out on 86 runs and due to responsible batting of South African players, they won the match in 18th over. From Group D, South Africa already qualified for the super eight while second team will be New Zealand.

I don't think New Zealand batted well. Especially New Zealand's top order performed badly. The pitch was batting friendly. New Zealand needed to score close to 200 to win against a team like South Africa. But due to the failure of the top order, New Zealand's innings stopped at 175 runs.

The performance of New Zealand's bowlers was even more atrocious than the batsmen. New Zealand's bowlers could not even take the wicket of opener Aiden Markram. The African captain was unbeaten on 86 runs off 44 balls. Jacob Duffy gave away 50 runs in 3 overs. Experienced bowlers like Ferguson and Matt Henry also gave away a lot of runs today.

PAk vs IND

Tomorrow, we will see them face each other on the field. Last time, Pakistan lost the match to them, but this time the situation has changed. Pakistan has consistently won their matches and is in good form, and the same is true for India. We can't see any weaknesses this time, and that's why it's too difficult to predict the winner of either team. Let's see who will be the victor, both teams are passionate about victory, and we can expect to be entertained by the match, which will determine the conqueror.

South Africa team performed well in today's match against New Zealand and they won. Although New Zealand team tried hard enough to put South Africa under pressure but they could not succeed rather South Africa team scored runs very quickly and won. In this match South Africa team won by a huge margin of 7 wickets they really did a very good batting performance in the power play. Aiden Markram is a great captain and he opened the batting and brought the team victory and remained unbeaten with 86 runs. South Africa has won each of the three matches so far which is why they are at the top of the points table in Group D, South Africa team seems to be the strongest in this group at present. New Zealand and South Africa are two strong teams and South Africa have defeated New Zealand in today's match and raised their position in South Africa.

Yes, South Africa outstanding batting performance in this match winning the match easily against New Zealand. South Africa chase down a huge total of 176 runs with only lost of three wickets in just 17th over of the match. The man of the Match is Marco Jansen for his impressive bowling performance picking four important wickets by giving 40 runs his economy rate is high but picking back to back wickets restricting New Zealand under 180 runs. After this win South Africa is on top position on point table by winning three back to back matches and qualify for the next round of world cup while New Zealand in on second position on point table, they need to win their last group match against United Arab Emirates, otherwise Afghanistan will qualify for next round

[Mahdirakib]

The performance of New Zealand's bowlers was even more atrocious than the batsmen. New Zealand's bowlers could not even take the wicket of opener Aiden Markram. The African captain was unbeaten on 86 runs off 44 balls. Jacob Duffy gave away 50 runs in 3 overs. Experienced bowlers like Ferguson and Matt Henry also gave away a lot of runs today.

South African batsmen are in good form now. And they are also very favourite to play the semi-final at least in this world cup. New Zealand bowlers performance was indeed bad. But they had nothing much to do there. As the way SA played today, they wouldn't have struggled to chase the target of around 210 runs. SA will surely end the group stage journey without losing any match.

Yes today is the day. And we know that this is a big Rivalry. Both countries really wait this moment and you know they watch the matches on big screens and with zeal. If we talk about who will win this match so this is little bit difficult to say because both team are those which can do anything at anything because anything can happen at any time. Like we have seen how USA played against India and how Netherlands played against Pakistan. So let's wait. I hope Pakistan will give a big surprise.

[JSRAW]

Proteas' fire looks the team to beat in this tournament, afghanistan got close but fumbled and failed to cross the line and SA basically rolled over Kiwis who already took fair amount of beating in recent times.

Rachin still at number 3, which seems weird. Maybe he's saving his hands for some big stage, possibly knockouts?

[Sithara007]

Yes today is the day. And we know that this is a big Rivalry. Both countries really wait this moment and you know they watch the matches on big screens and with zeal.

Like we have seen how USA played against India and how Netherlands played against Pakistan. So let's wait. I hope Pakistan will give a big surprise.

Both the teams are in great form, so this is going to be an evenly fought match. Odds also look interesting. The pitch at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo is likely to give advantage to the spinners ahead of the pacers. Abhishek Sharma is likely to be back in the playing XI for India, and he will replace the useless Sanju Samson. It is not known at this point whether India will retain Washington Sundar in the XI. In that case he will replace Arshdeep Singh. Adding Kuldeep Yadav to the XI is another option. Hardik Pandya is going to be another key player for India. He has excelled whenever he has played against them.

[noormcs5]

Oman team could not do a good bowling performance due to which Ireland team got a chance to score 235 runs in this match. However, if Oman team can control the wicket and perform aggressive batting performance then they will be close to winning this game. But as time goes by Oman team is facing danger, they are wasting a lot of balls and they need to learn to bat for a long time by being patient and calm. Aamir Kaleem and Hammad mirza these two batsmen are playing an important role, if they can perform aggressively in batting properly then Oman team players will be able to create a chance to win.

One sided match for Ireland. At the start they lost couple of wickets where they were just on 24 runs, but at the same time they were not letting the run rate down and this thing was helping them overall in the entire game.

The middle order really played amazingly and full of power hitting, and if we specifically mention a player who did his best but still cannot score 100 due to the limitations of overs, it is one and only Lorcan Tucker, the team leader and the champion. He remained not out and played his part for the team.
