T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Jaweria parveen]

RR vs RCB, now this is the matchup I am excited for, both are quality teams, expecting a competitive matchup. Seems oddmakers have come to their senses and have adjusted the odds this time around — current odds are 1.95/1.85 (RR/RCB) but I made a bet on RR yesterday, back then odds were 2.05 for RR.

On note, yesterday was disastrous, made 6 bets, lost 5.

Everyone is waiting impatiently for this and it has become their habit and success to powerful themselves with their super performing and new experience. RCB has Virat Kohli in the team for whom people are crazy and as far as I know RCB performing, they can win this game because of their thinking and struggling. I believe that RR is 2 points ahead on the table but it doesn't take long to turn the tables and RCB is enough for that. RR performing is also not that consistent that's why they are the powerful and at their peak. As soon as this game starts, both their performing and colors will start changing and unless either team scores 100 or more runs in the first 10 overs, then we have to pray for this team to win because this game can go out of hand for them. Your bet is because of the high number, rather than my bet, RCB thinking and ideology and their game will be second to none on the field.

RR has won 3/3 games they have played, whereas RCB has won 2/2, so they are 2 points ahead but not really.

RR performing is also not that consistent that's why they are the powerful and at their peak.

What?

As soon as this game starts, both their performing and colors will start changing and unless either team scores 100 or more runs in the first 10 overs, then we have to pray for this team to win because this game can go out of hand for them.

I don't think crossing 100 runs in first 10 overs tells anything.

I don't think crossing Your bet is because of the high number, rather than my bet, RCB thinking and ideology and their game will be second to none on the field.

What??

Edit: wow! Rain again. Ruins my mood.

KKR scored 181 runs today, their batting performance was not that exciting. If they fail to win today's match against LSG, then they will be at the bottom of the points table. KKR team was in good form last season but in this IPL they are very weak with good players in their team. The chances of winning against LSG in today's match are very low, if KKR team fails to beat their opponent today then it will be disappointing for them. LSG team has already lost three wickets but if they can bat patiently then there may be a chance of winning. Right now LSG team needs 94 runs in 55 balls which can be very difficult if they do not lose wickets then there will be a chance of winning. KKR team is trying to improve a lot in their bowling performance and is trying hard enough to win with their opponent.

This match involves the teams of KKR and LSG, in which the LSG team decided to field first and gave the KKR team a chance to bat, in which the KKR team scored 181 runs in 20 overs for their opponent team. From their team, Angkrish Raghuvanshi scored 45 runs and along with him Ajinkya Rahane scored 41 runs. All their players have shown a very good performance and moreover, Rovman Powell remained not out by scoring 39 runs. He has shown strength for his team and their opponent team LSG achieved the target by scoring 182 runs and achieved the target. If we look at their team, two players scored 54 runs, including Ayush Badoni and Mukul Choudhary and this was also not out. Along with them, Aiden Markram scored 22 scores, due to which they were able to achieve the target and this  Mukul Choudhary, who was declared the Player of the Match in the match, performed very well and took advantage of this match and won it by 3 wickets.

Electric crowd! This is what makes game alive. Archer may go expensive often, but chances he creates are immense and it's what counts. Plus, the way RCB is going and the firepower they have got, we may finally see 300 score today.

Edit: ^ nvm.

Edit 2: I can't believe they managed to pass 200.

Archer started with a bang and even if he went for runs he created the chance with Virat too. Modern-day captains are not attacking as they used to be in the past. I guess Virat has a weakness when someone bowls outside off so there should be a first slip when he starts his innings.

Edit: Bisnoi got him, clean bowled... Even 200 chase is gonna be pretty interesting in my opinion.

[JSRAW]

Nice to see that pitches seems to be fairly diverse so far and catering every set of fanbois.

Belter 250 pitch, fun 200-220 decks, competitive 160-180 pitches and bowling chokes 140-150. Also add few last ball finish and thrillers.

Last night, there was Peshawar Zalmi vs Hyderabad Kingsmen and I typically enjoyed watching that game, which was a nail-biter. We got the result on the last bowl. Early Hyderabad Kingsmen with not so good batting, but then the way they made the comeback was significant. Some batsmen from Peshawar Zalmi were looking for boundaries, but from the other end, Babar Azam was building the innings and scored some crucial runs, which really helped the team a lot, while the game was still so intense.

Actually, the way Karachi Kings have performed so far, I never thought that they would lose to Peshawar Zalmi by such a big margin, I was really hoping that we would see a competitive performance from them but Karachi Kings batsmen failed miserably today.

Kings top order David Warner and Muhammad Waseem were in total zero today, can you imagine? At the same time, Azam Khan's 25 runs off 27 balls was basically the highest score from them. What a shameful performance from Karachi Kings.

Mir Hamza have to take a break, because often when he is in the mood, he always dominate and do good bowling but when he's struggling so he can't even defend the target. At the same time, Karachi Kings have many other great bowlers, especially pacers, so they must go with them too, so that everyone gets the chance to showcase their skills of bowling and chase some big milestones, which of course help the team as well as players to boost their confidence for the further games.

202? That is a below par target right there, but they managed well despite losing wickets constantly thanks to some many freaking batsmen in the lineup. I was stunned to see Venkatesh Iyer coming 7 down. They just have a couple of good bowlers though.

RR should finish this one pretty quickly if Jaiswal and Vaibhav get going on top. This totally seems like a one sided contest to me. Bet on RR and excited to see how this one pans out.

[libert19]

Suryavanshi sach me Surya ka vansh lgta, itna bright hai, lol. Jurel also looking fire, playing confident shots.

...I was stunned to see Venkatesh Iyer coming 7 down.

Where would you want him to come in? He was impact player, came when they were out of batters.

Bet on RR and excited to see how this one pans out.

Same.

[Bitcoin Smith]

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is just getting better match after match and to be honest the way he plays even the legends may not have such kind of ability. I mean, scoring at a 300 strike rate is simply unreal.

RR should have no issues in winning this game too, just about run a ball is needed to win this match with 6 wickets in hand. But RCB posted a very good total after how terrible they started their innings, Rajat Patidar is playing back-to-back responsible knocks.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru really deserves praise for the way they batted today but Rajasthan Royals have made their batting performance even more incredible internationally which made it not too difficult for them to get this target of 202. Perhaps if they had got a chance to play a few more balls then I think their score would have gone up to 240.

Anyway, the Rajasthan Royals have performed very well in this Indian Premier League season, which is basically what we were missing last season.

KKR team is trying to improve a lot in their bowling performance and is trying hard enough to win with their opponent.

In the Indian Primer League the game between KKR and LSG was very energetic and interesting and KKR defeated LDG by 3 wickets. KKR opens inning first with Ajinkya Rahane and Finn Allen and among the openers Rahane was in good form and gives a very solid start to the team by scoring 41 runs but Allen just scores 9 runs and in middle order Raghuvanshi is in classical mod and showing a very powerful hitting by scoring 45 runs and  also Rovmann Powell  showing great courage and scores 39 runs and at the end of the innings KKR set a very huge target of 182 runs. LSG opens inning with Mitchell Marsh and Aiden Markram and both the openers showing there talent and class and Markram gives his best ever by scoring 22 runs and also Marshs just scores 15 runs  by and in middle order Ayush Badoni  was amazing and played a well knock of 54 runs and also Mukul was in aggressive form and played a winning knock of 54 runs and LSG successfully chase the target and  won the game

[Bitcoin Smith]

RR won the chase pretty comfortably, thanks to Suryavanshi and the Dhruv Jurel, who just carried the game till the end. So they are the one who remain unbeatable after the royal clash.

Just a thought came to me, RR starts every season like this, they will be winning 7 out of the first 8 games then there is their jinx. They are terrible at the back end of the season. I hope their curse is not there anymore.

As of now, it looks like they are in contention to lift the trophy this year, along with RCB.

In this match Phil Salt who is a player of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru team was dismissed by the opposing team bowlers for zero run and he was the opening player and tried his best to put pressure on them but he also set a brilliant score of 201 run which includes the hard work of all the player. The team that is playing against him is the Rajasthan Royals team. They broke their target and scored 202 run and win this match. Dhruv Jurel and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi both put their full effort to meet the target given by the opposing team and they completed almost half the runs. If the bowlers of the first team had shown a little more effort, there would have been 12 balls left, from which they completed the target. If they had shown some toughness in a few balls, they could have won too. Their batting was good, but still they faced failure.

Both these teams played the match with a short target and in this, Super Giant achieved their victory. Kolkata Rider's batsmen were a bit careless, if they had tried, their target could have been stronger and due to this strength, they could have tightened their bowling and in the last moments, they lost, it could have been turned into a victory which they did not do with their hard work. Some of their batsmen scored less runs, if they had worked hard with their other batsmen a good target of 200 could have been set and they worked hard to not let Super Giant batsmen score runs till the end, but they also played with full preparation and managed to achieve this target in 20 overs and succeed. Kolkata Rider bowler also controlled the wickets but he did not focus on the runs, which Super Giant batsmen took advantage of and they succeed in this match.

What an outstanding performance of Peshawar Zalmi today against Karachi Kings. The way they made game and pitch difficult for the Karachi king was truly appreciatable. Kusal Mendis completed his sensational century and Babar Azam played the innings with maturity give benefit to their team. But response of Karachi king was too much unexpected and miserable even not a single has the ability to play defending innings. And as a result Karachi King face heavy defeat with the huge number of 159 runs. There is a need for Karachi King to reassess their team.

Abbas Afridi was not fit today, because he was struggling to make his complete run up that we can even analyze it in the early stages of game, he was struggling to go with his full potential and work with his run up, that's why of course this thing raises to several tensions during the game for Karachi Kings and now the question is when he is not fit then why he is playing 

At the same time, in this schedule of PSL, there are many big breaks to the team, so of course no matter how many times you are bowling in the nets, match practice is match practice.

[ThemePen]

Quetta Gladiators easily beat Rawalpindiz by 61 runs after scoring 182/6, with strong 53 runs by captain Rilee Rossouw and fast 39 runs by Hasan Nawaz. Rawalpindiz chase failed badly as their captain Mohammad Rizwan was out on first ball itself and entire team all out with only 121 runs. This match showed that Quetta is very well even and confident team and Rawalpindiz team on other hand seemed to be lost with their fifth straight defeat. Quetta did wonderful job of mixing experienced with young talent where Rawalpindiz team was unable to play as team despite having big stars. Rawalpindiz are in serious trouble and likely can not make next round unless they can quickly fix their batting problems.

[JSRAW]

As of now, it looks like they are in contention to lift the trophy this year, along with RCB.

Wait for it, its a freaking long tournament and not unusual to teams to run out of carrots as it progresses.

3-4 games in a trot going in opposite directions and everyone is in ditches. Almost every season plays out similarly for a team or two.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is just getting better match after match and to be honest the way he plays even the legends may not have such kind of ability. I mean, scoring at a 300 strike rate is simply unreal.

RR should have no issues in winning this game too, just about run a ball is needed to win this match with 6 wickets in hand. But RCB posted a very good total after how terrible they started their innings, Rajat Patidar is playing back-to-back responsible knocks.

I want to know why this kid is not yet in the Indian T20I squad. If he can make such big scores in the IPL, then he can repeat that performance during international matches as well. As of now, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is the top scorer in this season of the Indian Premier League, with 200 runs from 4 matches at an average of 50.00. His strike rate stands at an astonishing 266.66. Second placed Priyansh Arya has 242.10, but he has scored only 46 runs. Incidentally as of now all the top-3 run scorers in this season of the IPL are from Rajasthan Royals. Yashasvi Jaiswal is at second place with 183 runs, while Dhruv Jurel has so far scored 176.

He will get his run soon in some t-20 bilateral, at the same it would be too unfair for guys like abhishek and kishan if they get axe because of it, samson should see the writing on the walls tho. It'd also unfair to jaisawal, poor guy was front runner in 2023-24.

His SR is unbelievable, before the IPL, some pundits ( uttapa etc) were saying that kid is riding his luck and he'll be found out by bowlers this season but so far no signs of slowing down, it'll happen tho as its normal in cricket.
