T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Cheema02]

The fourth match of the series is going to be held shortly. New Zealand is already leading 2-1 in the series. Although South Africa won the first match, they lost the next two matches.

South Africa captain won the toss and decided to bat. In the previous match too, South Africa batted first and set a target of 137 runs. New Zealand reached the target with the loss of just 2 wickets. So South Africa will have to try to deliver a big target today. A target of 180+ should be attempted.

The match will be held in Wellington. It is not a bowling friendly pitch. Another interesting fact is that the team fielding first on this pitch gets more advantage and wins more matches. So it does not  seem right to win the toss and decide to bat in today's match.

I don't think South Africa decision to bat first is bad decision because South Africa batting wonderfully scoring huge 164 runs on board in bowling friendly pitch. South Africa team always chokes while chasing down target thet why their decision to bat first is right. The man of Match performance by Connor Esterhuizen for scoring a well deserved half century and out after adding important 57 runs to the team total from just 36 balls and reached team total to 160 plus. South Africa also bowls amazingly in this match they bowled out New Zealand team at just 145 runs in 19th over of the match. New Zealand didn't played full overs because of South Africa bowling performance especially Gerald Coetzee picked 3 crucial wickets by just giving 31 runs and assisted South Africa team to win this fourth T20 match and level the series with 2-2.

I was wrong in my previous post where I said that New Zealand squad would defeat South Africa in next two matches as well. But today 4th match has been finished and New Zealand squad faced defeat in this match. South Africa squad was begun match first with batting inning and batters were managed to collect 164 scores after playing 20 overs inning. Thanks to Connor Esterhuizen batter who displayed strong batting performance and he managed to collect 57 scores off 36 deliveries. Gerald Coetzee bowler player crucial role in getting victory and he picked up 3 significant wickets of New Zealand squad and restricted New Zealand squad below target. With 19 scores, South Africa squad succeeded to defeat New Zealand squad and with this victory, T20 competition has been balanced.

The drama in the five-match T20 series between New Zealand and South Africa began with South Africa's victory in the fourth match, and the fifth match will determine which team will win the series.
After South Africa won the first match and lost two consecutive matches, supporters thought that South Africa might lose the series if they lost the fourth match, but South Africa came back in the fourth match and the series is still level. They made a dramatic comeback in the series by bowling out New Zealand by 19 runs in the fourth match, and the fifth match will determine which team will win the series.

I expected New zealand to win the series easily. But after South africa's win today, the series is tied at 2-2 . The outcome of the  last match will determine which team wins the series. South africa's batsmen have given a decent target today. At the same time, their bowlers have also been able to do their job properly. However, with the series tied at 2-2 , the last match will be a close contest. Both teams will try their best to win the series.

Qiana Joseph was looking to smash the bowl and only look for the boundary that was an good approach in T20 for sure whether you are chasing or setting target but at the same time she was wasting much balls that if the ball was not connecting to the middle of the bat so Qiana Joseph should not wait for that one perfect shot and could have a boundary, she had to ran hard between the wickets so that the team can have advantage as well. These balls carry much importance, and surely we have the right to blame her as well.

Yeah, in this loss to the Australian Women, the West Indies Women need to improve as a team, not as individuals.

Today's match was very difficult for New Zealand, especially all the New Zealand batsmen where they could not score any significant runs.
It is not that South Africa set a very big target by batting first, a target of 164 runs is not a very big collection in modern T20Is. If one or two of New Zealand's opening batsmen could have scored some runs in the beginning, then New Zealand had a great chance to win today's match, but everyone from the top order to the lower order of New Zealand showed failure today. Especially except Tim Robinson's innings of 32 runs off 22 balls, no other batsman could score any significant runs.
As a result, South Africa won against New Zealand by 19 runs in today's match too

[virasog]

Two for South Africa and two for the New Zealand team. Now the next game will be the final match and the most interesting, surely both of the teams will try to push their best effort and go with the perfect playing 11 otherwise just imagine if the scorecard would look like that 3-1 so the team in upper hand always try to have different playing 11 to check their player and potential in overall squad but now it is 2 - 2 so thrilling for the next match 

[Farhan99]

So, in the third match of the series between New Zealand and South Africa, I gave a prediction not a clear cut one but I said that New Zealand had the upper hand in the match and in the series, and they would win. They won exactly as I predicted, but now, unfortunately, they lost the match to South Africa, who won by 19 runs. Somehow, New Zealand was very close to the target and still had some balls left, which they could have used to win, but they had none on the crease and lost. However, looking at the state of play, I will say they will win the next match, and I have a strong gut feeling that they will be the winners of this series.

Yeah, in 4th game  between New Zealand and South Africa was amazing and full of suspense until the game was end and its end with the victory of South Africa by 19 runs. South Africa opens inning first with De Zorzi and Wiaan Mulder and both  the openers don't doing best for their team  and don't gives a positive start to the team and De Zorzi scores a well knock of 23 runs but Mulder lost his wicket early on duck and in middle order African batters seems solid and  Esterhuizen stable the innings by playing a aggressive knock of 57 runs and also Rubin Hurban carry on to make runs and played a very useful innings for his team and scores 28 runs. New Zealand opens inning with Tim Robinson and Katen Clarke and among the openers Robinson played a good innings while chasing the target and gives a very booster start to the team by scoring 32 runs but Clark just scores 9 runs and in middle  order Dane Klever playing a efficient inning of 26 runs and put well efforts in run chase but after that New Zealand batters don't able to stable the innings and falls off wickets continue until the they lost all wickets and New Zealand don't chase the target successfully and South Africa won the game

Yeah, in this loss to the Australian Women, the West Indies Women need to improve as a team, not as individuals.

Yes waiting to get perfect shot is luxury that team cannot have against organized Australian attack but instead, they should have been focusing on getting ball off side and pushing it through gaps to get easy singles to keep scoreboard moving.
I think West Indies can only really beat best teams like Australia if they focus on use of hard runs and fast running instead of trying to hit every ball with big shot. To be winner, whole team should change their mind way to value each ball and remove large number of dot balls that are now slowing them down.

It was really a crazy momment in this series.
Actually, this series is a lot like the recent series between Bangladesh and Pakistan. That is, in the last match of the series, we will be able to identify who will actually win. For example, in the series between Bangladesh and Pakistan, Bangladesh performed very well in the first match and Pakistan won the second match strongly. In the third match, there was confusion and later Bangladesh won.

Now, the series between New Zealand and South Africa is basically happening like that. First, I thought that New Zealand would secure their victory in this match, but South Africa came back in this series with good bowling. Now, the fifth match will basically decide which team will win.

Today match was very interesting for South Africa fans because winning today match was very important for South Africa because if South Africa lost there would be no need to win the next match. But South Africa won the match and put New Zealand in trouble.South Africa fought brilliantly.They were able to achieve the winning due to South Africa excellent bowling which New Zealand could not match.New Zealand performed very poorly.The New Zealand team could not even play the full match.Now both teams are under pressure because both are equal in the lead.South Africa can take revenge for its semi final against New Zealand.For this South Africa needs a lot of hard work otherwise it will miss another opportunity.It is a notable to see all the batsmen and bowlers of South Africa do their duty and help the team win.

South Africa won the game, but the start made by them was not as good as we had expected, but of course at the same time nothing can be perfect, as always we expected there are always ups and downs in the games, so that the team can automatically achieve the motive and milestone.

However, Wiaan Mulder got out on golden duck after playing a couple of ball, 2 bowls. But the next players of the top order as well as the middle order tried to stabilise the game and did their best.

The last match is here by tomorrow, three T20i and then three one-day games will be played. By the way, even before the series, I sometimes felt good for the West Indies, but overall I was supporting the Australian women's team because of their track record of winning, but then I often realized the West Indies women might surprise us. However, so far nothing great has come, but let's see, in total four games are left and the West Indies have a chance to dominate the one-day series.

Final T20I in Kingstown is last chance for West Indies to break Australia momentum before tour moves to ODI series. I agree that while Australia winning history makes them favorites, West Indies have real opportunity to surprise everyone as format changes to longer, more tactical game. And yes small differences in fitness and fielding have cost West Indies so far, but if they can tighten up their game by just 10%, they could finally pull off an upset. I think West Indies are actually much stronger in ODI format, and winning tomorrow T20 finale would give them winning energy needed to potentially take one day series 2-1.

The drama in the five-match T20 series between New Zealand and South Africa began with South Africa's victory in the fourth match, and the fifth match will determine which team will win the series.
After South Africa won the first match and lost two consecutive matches, supporters thought that South Africa might lose the series if they lost the fourth match, but South Africa came back in the fourth match and the series is still level. They made a dramatic comeback in the series by bowling out New Zealand by 19 runs in the fourth match, and the fifth match will determine which team will win the series.

This match consisted of 20 overs, which included the teams of South Africa and New Zealand. South Africa decided to bat first, in which they gave a target of 164 runs, which is considered a good score. Their decision to bat proved to be good for them. From their team, Connor Esterhuizen scored 57 runs and Rubin Hermann remained not out at the second position, scoring 28 runs. All the players from their team scored some or the other, which increased their target and George Linde from their team also remained not out at the third position, scoring 14 runs. Their team kept their batting strong, due to which they gave a good target. In comparison, from the New Zealand team, Dane Cleaver scored 26 runs and with him, Tim Robinson scored 32 runs. The players in their team scored a little. They should have supported their team and scored more runs, but they failed. So South Africa  The team took advantage of this and won the match by 19 runs, which was a good win.

The match was totally dominated by by South Africa. Their decison to bat first was indeed a good decision and they gave a tsrget which is considered nice on a pitch like that and in this format. Connor Esterhuizen got on the front foot for the Team and striked harder. He batted nicely and got hi fifty which helped his team big time. New zealand didnt bat as well and thats the reason they couldnt finish the game off. However they came close and just lost by 26 runs because it didnt seem they would do that too. Kudos to SA for a great win.

The NZ20, proposed new franchise-based T20 tournament in New Zealand, is set to be backed as their preferred domestic T20 competition.

It will replace the Super Smash, which began in the men's format in 2005/06, and women's format in 2007/08, and deviate from the current local association-based competition to a franchise-based format.After SAT20 , ILT20 , CPL & 100 , Looks like we getting IPL investment in New Zeland franchise league too but i'm struggling to see how this work? SAT20 is a huge sucess because of time zones , you can have game on prime time for indian viewers which is not possible for games happening in New Zealand.

Good batting by Tony de Zorzi and Connor Esterhuizen. When Mulder got out early so it was looking pretty hard and challenging for South Africa but they both overcame this fear and worked as the team in unity which led to a big win and obviously team won in the unity and not only because of these both players 'Tony de Zorzi and Connor Esterhuizen. Everyone contributed and they were able to pile up a reasonable total.

[Haunebu]

The South Africans somehow won against the Kiwis even after posting a below par total thanks to which the series decider could be interesting later on. I only recognize just a couple of players from both sides since many new players have been given opportunities to play.

My prediction is that the Kiwis will win and secure this particular series comfortably in the decider.

South Africa batted well in this match. This was the highest total of this series. And compared to the previous matches, South Africa's bowlers also bowled well in this match. As a result, they were able to win by a margin of 19 runs and were able to equalize the series 2-2 . Especially Subrayen and Keshav Maharaj bowled very well. In  7 overs, these two bowlers gave away only 35 runs and took  4 wickets. The result of the series depends on the last match. I guess New zealand will be able to win the series.
