T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[Bitcoin Smith]

One more failure for Rutu, I guess it's time to make the necessary change.

I had bet on Ruturaj to hit 0 sixes, worked out well.

I bet on KKR in their ongoing match against CSK earlier and it looks like I might lose my bet thanks to some shit bowling by Vaibhav etc while their spinners like Anukul and Narine are bowling well.

KKR bowlers did good comeback though (or is it CSK batters that forgot to play?).

Have no idea what Gaikwad is doing anymore. KKR still has a chance to win this one if they manage to restrict CSK under 210. Let's see if Kolkata can get their first points properly.

Deffo under 210, might not make 200 even.

Edit: Glad to see Narine open again, not sure why he was sacked off in first place when he does better there.

Edit: Ruturaj dropping dolly, csk fanbase gonna eat him alive now.

Edit: Absolutely pathetic!

CSK scored 30 runs off the last 28 balls, probably they are the team with the worst run rate in both powerplay and death overs, and that explains why they are struggling. But thanks to CSK bowlers they did well and better than anyone could have expected and finally Noor came into the rhythm, which is a good thing for CSK.

KKR never looked in the chase, they lost the game inside the powerplay and then they only had the catching up while losing too many wickets.

Peshawar Zalmi is a strong team this time, and looking at their performance and the victories they are achieving one after another, it is certain that they will win this tournament. Babar Azam is in good form and has scored massive runs this season compared to the previous one. Now, Khushal has also played a significant role in setting a high target. Both of these players, along with other run scoring players in the Peshawar Zalmi team, are performing very well. If they continue with the same performance, then nobody can stop them from winning the trophy in this PSL. In this match, Tariq and Nafay are good players, and Peshawar needs to target them as their first priority because if they play long innings, then the winning streak of Peshawar Zalmi will be broken.

I think it maybe one sided game for Peshawar Zalmi tomorrow because as Muhammad Haris was playing in really a great way last time. He understood how to read the bowl and play the shot accordingly, especially the crucial factor is that he was smashing the bowl with the middle of the bat, which always results in six or at least four. At the same time, Kusal Mendis is being so good in his previous game and also the top scorer in the PSL so far with 309 runs.

Yeah, I also think same because if we analyze the bowling order so the story is almost same. The wonderful spin attack such as Sufyan Muqeem who played immediately in the previous game too and of course he will play tomorrow too, also the top wicket taker with 13 wickets and also the third player with the most wickets in this edition of HBL PSL 11 is Iftikhar Ahmed who is also from Peshawar Zalmi with  9 wickets while pacers are average that can help them, so all good for them.

Shivam Dube was supposed to step up scoring during the depth overs, but yesterday he scored just 13 from 12 balls. Sarfaraz Khan is considered to be more suitable for the test format, so I would say that his 23 from 18 was quite decent. The problem with Chennai Super Kings is that in the unlikely scenario of top-4 getting out before the depth overs (Sanju Samson, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ayush Mhatre and Dewald Brevis), and in case Dube fails, then they will put up a poor finishing show. And yesterday, Sunil Narine was a revamped beast when he came to bowl during the final overs.

Namibia vs Scotland First T20

First T20 between Namibia and Scotland in Windhoek is new beginning in that both will be eager to show which team will be best in this shorter, faster form of game. Whether Namibia can outplay Scotland, mentally, by forgetting their recent loss against Scotland. Also, taking early wickets should stop otherwise strong middle order batters of Scotland, in my view, will be deciding factor in match. Scotland appears to be very calm and cool at this time and this means that anything Namibia bowlers can do to make sure they keep their score low, they will have chance to return with high chances of winning.

CSK vs KKR is easily the worst game that I have seen in this season so far despite Chennai scoring close to 200 primarily thanks to how boring it was. CSK struggled quite a bit to reach 190+ when they should have easily crossed 200 at one point.

On the other hand, KKR played like proper sloths struggling to hit every ball out of the park. Players like Allen, Green etc were overhyped to the high heavens. Kolkata still hasn't gotten 2 points properly which is embarrassing to say the least.
