T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Farhan99]

Today, Australia is facing Oman at Pallekele International Stadium. As we know, both teams are out of the tournament. Australia lost their two matches to Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka, and it was the worst performance in their history, I guess. Somehow, they are both here to complete their group matches and can leave with pride if they secure a win. Both teams are ready to defeat their opponents,  however, my prediction goes to the Australian team in today's match, and there is a good reason behind it that I will disclose after the match.

In the Men's T20 World Cup Australia defeated Oman by 9 wickets. Oman opens inning first with Aamir Kaleem and Jatinder Singh and among the openers Jatinder gives a positive start to the team by scoring 17 runs but Aamir losses his wicket early on duck and in middle order only Wasim Ali played a defensive  innings of 32 runs but the other team was panicked and falls of wicket continue and at the end of the innings Oman set a very low target of 105 runs. Australia opens inning with Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh and both the openers gives a very positive start to the team and Travis played a well inning of 32 runs and also Marsh  played a aggressive knock of 64 runs and in middle order with the help of Inglis's 12 runs Australia can easily chase the target successfully and won the game by 9 wickets.

Afghanistan team is out of the tournament and have not qualify in Super Eight round. Yesterday Afghanistan team played 39 th last game of this tournament with Canada team. Afghanistan batsman made target of 200 runs in 20 overs by losing 4 wickets. Ibrahim batsmen batted so well in opening and he made 96 runs in 36 balls and hitted seven 4s and five 6s. Gurbaz also helped team to win this game and played good with Ibrahim and he made 30 runs in 20 balls and hitted five 4s. Canada batsmen failed to win this game and he chased only 118 runs and lost game by big margin 82 runs. Nabi bowler bowled brilliantly and he took down 4 wickets in 4 overs and gave 7 runs. Congratulations Afghanistan on winning easy and one sided game but they lost this tournament.

Afghanistan's exit was expected, they don't have the ability to beat New Zealand and South Africa to reach the Super 8, especially when playing on batting-friendly pitches. If they were playing on spin-friendly pitches, I would definitely expect Afghanistan to make the Super 8. Even though Afghanistan's exit was already confirmed, they had to play a match against Canada to keep the rules, the result of the match was also expected, Canada was not a tough opponent for them. Afghanistan played well in every department.

Zimbabwe was very unexpected in this World Cup. They finished the group stage undefeated even in a group with strong teams like Australia, Sri Lanka and Ireland, and they are even the top team in that group. I would like to see them in the semi-finals, although this competition is very tough. Zimbabwe, South Africa, India and West Indies have formed a strong group.

It was a consolation win for australia. Their fate was  predestined. Their World Cup journey came to an end after defeat against Sri lanka.
Oman is one of the weakest teams in this world cup. It is easily predicted that Australia will win this  match. And we got the expected good performance from them. But I was most surprised by australia's performance against zimbabwe in this world cup. Zimbabwe set a target of only 170 runs. Anyway, australia lost the match by 23 runs. Australia's bowlers also performed poorly against Sri lanka. Sri lanka reached the target of victory by scoring 184  runs in just 18 overs.

Aussies were not able to qualify for Super 8 and despite winning their last game against Oman they will be flying back home. Oman team was asked to bat first after Aussies won the toss. Oman team scored just 104 runs and Aussies finished the match in just 10 overs.

The game between Australia and Oman was last game of the group stage and tomorrow super 8 matches will commerce. First game of super 8 will be played between Pakistan and New Zealand. Both teams have lost a match in group stage and NZ are slightly ahead of Pakistan.

We can't say anything about the Super Eight matches, especially the first match of the Super Eight and the 41st match of the World Cup is going to start with the match between Pakistan and New Zealand. The Premadasa Stadium in Colombo is a neutral venue where both Pakistan and New Zealand will play as neutral teams, where the team that can play with a good balance team has the potential to win. However, I will put Pakistan ahead from this point of view because Pakistan's bowling is better than New Zealand's and Pakistan's spinning bowling has played much more aggressive cricket. However, the performance of the batsmen is better than that of New Zealand's bowlers, so there is no room to underestimate any team. However, as a Pakistani supporter, I definitely think that Pakistan will be in the role of winning this match.

Oman's team faced failure in this match because after the toss, their team got the opportunity to bat first in which they scored 104 runs, which is very low in 20 overs, but if hard work and bowling are used well, this is also enough to win the match. But what they had in their overview was that the performance of all such players was unacceptable. They scored very low scores. The other team, which was Australia, had to take advantage of it. Almost one of their players was out and they completed the target given to them in nine overs and four balls. If their record is also seen in the table, both of them have played four matches in which Oman's performance has been very bad because they have lost all those matches and the Australian team has won two and lost two. But in this match, the Australian team won by one wicket and defeated the other team by nine wickets and 62 balls.

From 21st , the Super eight games will start and the first math is going to be between Pakistan and New Zealand, super important game for both of the teams and if we talk about the teams in group stage so they have almost the same results,. Pakistan won against all the teams except India and same for the New Zealand, lost to South Africa but won against other easy teams like Afghanistan, Canada and United Arab Emirates.

Pakistan and New Zealand head to head:
New Zealand won almost all the last 5 games in their home ground of a series but just a single game won by Pakistan due to an amazing knock of Hassan Nawaz but this time he is not a part of squad.

Before Pakistan team was even struggling in the group stages games that firstly hardly won against Netherlands and then somehow won against U.S.A, lost to probably the best team India but last time it was one sided game for Pakistan against Namibia, that was the scenario of group stages but now they have entered into the danger zone, can't even afford to lose a single game because Pakistan to face New Zealand, England and Sri Lanka. Let's see will they make it this time or again back to Pakistan.

The bad play in the 2026 T20 world cup started with close wins over other countries and has ended with a loss to India, Pakistan is now in high pressure group of death in Super 8s where they can not pay to make single mistake. Beginning day, February 21, against New Zealand at Pallekele, they play against tough plan which includes matches against last champions England and strong Sri Lakan team.
Pakistan has been winning in most cases when their backs are against wall, but they have to score better against spinners such as Mitchell Santner tonight otherwise they will be kicked out and will be sent home at an early time. This first game against Kiwis will most probably decide whether they make it through rest of the cup or not.

The organizers want Pakistan to face India in the semi-finals, since these matches generate tons of revenue. But for that to happen, both these teams need to qualify for the semis. In case of India, there is a very good possibility that they would qualify. But I am not sure in case of Pakistan. That said, given the viewership numbers from the other matches involving India, I am sure that even if the match between these two sides doesn't get realized, both the ICC and the media rights holders will be able to make huge profits from this tournament (although there is a perception that the media rights were oversold).

Both already made sure of their place in Super 8 part, with India being first in Group A and Pakistan beating61 run defeat to India to make sure of final victory over Namibia. As India still holds top position in Group 1, it is Pakistan that has must win situation in their first Super 8 game with New Zealand later this evening at Colombo to continue their semi final dreams.

To me, though this particular match might not be happening again in knockout, tournament is already huge success. Group matches alone have already shown ad prices of 40 lakh per 10 seconds and viewer numbers of 85 million. Although it is said that TV rights have been over sold at 3.1 billion, home-soil energy in India and the travel growth in Sri Lanka show that money strength of the tournament is stronger than ever.

Less than 3 hours in start of Super 8 round, matches New Zealand is going to compete against Pakistan. I am expecting good balanced game from both the sides but New Zealand's batting is looking better and stronger which could be their advantage, but Pakistan's spinners got attacking bowling, this could be a plus for them through out this world cup.

Sri Lanka lost to Zimbabwe while England is also looking not good with this level of performance, I am expecting New Zealand and Pakistan have fair chance of going into next round while India and South Africa are from Group 1, with this most chances another encounter between India and Pakistan would be possible which could be brining good excitement for fans in these tense conditions, today I have wagered on New Zealand because I am expecting them to be having extra edge with their batting depth.

Pakistan and New Zealand head to head:
New Zealand won almost all the last 5 games in their home ground of a series but just a single game won by Pakistan due to an amazing knock of Hassan Nawaz but this time he is not a part of squad.

Pakistan may have won one of the last five matches at the New Zealand venue, but this will not affect the victory of today's match because Pakistan's bowling is in a very strong position at the moment. Today's match is neutral for Pakistan and New Zealand, so no team will compromise anyone at this venue. However, in today's match at a neutral venue, a lot will depend on the batsmen, especially since most of the T20 matches are being played on batting-friendly pitches this year, as a result, the performance of New Zealand's batsmen is higher than Pakistan's. Therefore, it can be said that New Zealand is ahead in terms of potential in today's match.

Australia looked so helpless when they were playing against Oman which makes sense. They didn't enjoy decimating Oman at all which could be seen all over their faces. How the mighty have fallen. Anyway, Super 8 stage is all set to begin soon.

NZ vs Pakistan should be interesting. Pakistan is clearly overdependent on Farhan. If he gets going, I think they will win. If not, NZ should win. Simple prediction.

This game of Pak vs Nz is an interesting game and Important too for both teams. However due to rain the game has been delayed after pak winning the toss and choosing to bat. And seeing the rain it doesn't seem it's going to stop nowhere close today and it's likely the match will be tied and each team will get a point. This will put both teams at a disadvantage for the Semis and will become an advantage for England and Sri Lanka. Let's hope for the best and hope to see good cricket.

Rain Rain go away to come again another day, every body wants to play ... 

The match was very important for both of the teams and several hours ago the weather was alright but right now not good vibes are coming out, however the rain is not getting slow, the situation is not so good.
However, Pakistan won the toss and they decided to bat first which is I think not so good because the pitch is wet now due to heavy rain here , the bowlers can have advantage of wet pitch especially the seam and the swing.

The rain came after the toss, so in this case, it is not the fault of the Pakistan captain, that is, what can he do if it rains after winning the toss? If it had happened after the rain, then the Pakistan captain would have decided to field for sure, but this may have been a huge mistake by the Pakistan captain and the price of this mistake will definitely be paid in today's match. Usually, after rain, there is a lot of moisture on the pitch, due to which batting becomes very difficult. Therefore, it will be really difficult for Pakistan to bat, besides, the poor performance of the Pakistani batsmen will force them to bat even worse due to the rain.

Yes, you are right. Anyways Pakistan have 9 batsmen and 2 proper spinners, they have many all rounder's in their team. Mike Hesson is the coach and he is trying every body to play everywhere, means that he is making a team full of all rounder's and I think this is not a good adopt because if a person focus on both aspects so it is understood that he cannot put the same effort on both sides, it is good to have specialist bowlers and batsmen, then it would be great for Pakistan and they can have some little bit of advantage.

[Bitcoin_Budha]

A big relief for Pakistan match called off they are sharing one point with New Zealand now they have fair chance of win against their opponents which will allow them to have spot into last four because only this match was looking challenging for them while England and Sri Lanka both are having not good performance which could be helpful for Pakistan.

Tomorrow both big games first England are going to face Sri Lanka while in second big game India going to entertain second favorite South Africa most chances these both could be in final as well but still West Indies and Pakistan can make something entertaining as they are in and also have chance to go into last four.
