Rajasthan Royals  vs Mumbai Indians

Today for another time we have two games in the IPL and I am going to talk about the first game that is a key match and one of the most important matches, Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians. Last chance or golden opportunity for Rajasthan Royals, they are in the fifth position right now with 14 points, and if they get two more points in their last game today, then no one can stop them from qualifying for the top four.

RR has won the match by 30 runs RR batted first and set a massive target of finish their innings with a strong score of 205 runs for the loss of 8 wickets and They did so well because everyone contributed like Jaiswal started fast with 27 runs hurl with 38 and shanaka with 29 and altlast jofra archar surprised everyone by smashing 32 runs and Mumbai only managed to score 175 runs

After this game between Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians the qualifiers of playoff can be cleared after the victory of Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings eliminates from this event. Rajasthan Royals opens innings first and the top order gives an ordinary start to the team and in middle order Dhruv Jurel was very impactful and Jofra was very impressive in this game even with bat and played a very aggressive and required knock for the team and Rajasthan set a strong target at the end of the innings. Mumbai Indians openers was not in good batting form and lost there wickets early on and putting additional pressure on top order but in middle order Suryakumar paying his responsibilities in a well way and by putting a remarkable half century and also Hardik was so impactful but after putting great efforts Mumbai don't chase the target successfully and Rajasthan wins this game.

All players of Rajasthan Royals cricket team played very well in this match and they did great effort in this match And they tried to build pressure on opponent team and their performance was great as comparison to opponent team. Dhruv Jurel is emerging star and he played for the team Ang made important runs for the team when it was need of the team and played with strike rate of 146 in this match and collective score of that team was more as pitch was good in this match and Mumbai Indians gave their wickets at the start and they could not chase this target at the end. Suryakumar Yadav made a half century for the team and no other player of that team could make half century in this match . Pandya is a capitain of that team and his team is losing.

Playoffs week is finally here. Hope it delivers a lot more entertainment than the mostly boring league phase. RCB vs GT up first where I am expecting GT to comfortably move to the final while SRH vs RR is the eliminator where SRH will probably win.

I don't expect every game to be thriller, it was good league phase, I would rate it good 8/10 from entertainment perspective (what other perspective there could be?). RCB is better team than GT, so they should be winning 1st qualifier but I am all in for RCB losing here and then facing SRH in q2 (I am pretty certain of SRH winning against RR).

MI and LSG just won 4 times overall. Pathetic!

Dunno what happened with MI but LSG management is pathetic (including Pant as captain), and this was very well reflected in their performance.

Edit: Correction.

What a great match by Rajasthan Royals squad and now fourth playoff place has also been fixed. Match among Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders can no longer affect top 4 standing. Reason behind this is Rajasthan Royals’ victory. If Rajasthan Royals had lost then Kolkata Knight Riders  squad would still have had possibility to qualify for top 4 but now that is no longer possible. Royal Rajasthan squad was begun match first with batting inning and batters were managed to collect 205 scores off 20 overs inning. Special thanks to Dhruv Jurel and Jofra Archer batters played amazing inning and both batters were collected 38 and 32 scores respectively. Mumbai Indians squad was fell short by 30 scores and Royal Rajasthan squad succeeded to secure victory today. Jofra Archer played crucial role in getting victory and he managed to pick up 3 significant wickets.

The game between KKR and Delhi Capitals was very enjoyable and Delhi Capitals easily won this game but this game is not so important for both teams because both are eliminated from Indian Premier League but instead of this a quality cricket can be seen in this game from the side of Delhi Capitals. Delhi Capitals opens innings first and in top order KL Rahul was so brilliant tonight and consistently put a great impact on opponents and in middle order Axer Patel was also very impressive and Delhi ends the innings with a good total. KKR openers looking confident and also both openers puts a very positive start for the team especially Ajinkya Rahane was very impressive but in middle order the other batters don't implied their potential in positive way and don't chase the target and Delhi Capitals manage the pressure of game in a good way and won this game.

Dunno what happened with MI~

They had the best possible team and everyone in the team also in the form when the tournament started but somehow they didn't find their rhythm which usually happens to them at every season but once they are set they will make their way to the top but this season it didn't happen.

And what happened to Hardik is also a mystery, but most likely he is done with MI with the way he behaved in the last match and post match presentation as well.

England Women  VS  New Zealand Women

The New zealand Women's team and the england women's team faced each other today in the last match of the three-match  series. These two teams  are strong in women's cricket. Both have won one match each in the first two matches. So today's match was the final match for  them.

The New Zealand women's batsmen batted  very badly today. Although the first two matches were quite competitive , today's match was one-sided. New zealand was only able to give a target of 81  runs. It was not possible to win such a  small target. The England Women's team reached the target of  victory  before the 14th over, losing only  3 wickets.

And what happened to Hardik is also a mystery, but most likely he is done with MI with the way he behaved in the last match and post match presentation as well.

Lol now what did he do? Don't tell me if he indirectly blamed the senior players for not showing up and not giving their best, which also means not supporting him?

It's not only him tho, plenty of Indian T-20 wc winner players were meh this season

This match involves RR or MI teams in which almost both the teams have shown good performance but first the RR team batted in which they made a target of 205 runs. Dhruv Jurel and Jofra Archer who have made the most effort in making it were the ones who scored 38 and 32 runs. They have made this score for their team while keeping their wickets strong. If MI bats in return, they have been able to score 175 runs out of the target. From their team, Suryakumar Yadav scored the most runs for his opponent and his team, which is 60 runs, but no one else supported him and tried to score more runs than that. By the end, all their players were out. Due to being out, their batting has been affected, due to which they have lost this match by a few runs after making such a good score

What it prove, though? IPL is far superior than world cup in terms of talent? Because the pitches are easier compared to WC, they just want to see more runs on the boards so it's almost flat pitches throughout the season with very few exciting 160 chases.

I keep thinking what they could have done better? It is all becase of Bumrah failed to take early wickets or the whole team went off rail due to internal politics or something...

England Women  VS  New Zealand Women

The New zealand Women's team and the england women's team faced each other today in the last match of the three-match  series. These two teams  are strong in women's cricket. Both have won one match each in the first two matches. So today's match was the final match for  them.

The New Zealand women's batsmen batted  very badly today. Although the first two matches were quite competitive , today's match was one-sided. New zealand was only able to give a target of 81  runs. It was not possible to win such a  small target. The England Women's team reached the target of  victory  before the 14th over, losing only  3 wickets.

From the beginning England Women were stronger than New Zealand women and their performance was more aggressive so England Women deserved to win the series but still New Zealand women batted so poorly that they were not expected to play so poorly.New Zealand women were so weak that they could not even complete the allotted overs.England Women bowlers restricted New Zealand to 80 runs and I think that was the lowest target that New Zealand Women had ever set.New Zealand women would just come out in pitch and get out and England Women bowlers took three wickets each.The target was so low that England Women batsmen batted brilliantly and won the series.

Another shit controversy hit the IPL. Travis Head and Kohli seemed to have sort of issue in their recent match where SRH crushed RCB and I wasn't even aware of this until Head's wife posted about cricket trolls(Mainly RCB idiotas) targetting their family.

India keeps getting a bad name because of these sort of neanderthals. This just made the whole SRH-RCB rivalry more intense. Immature Kohli and some of his braindead fans...smh!

One could say lot of things, fatigue after winning t20 wc like fire was missing and not just Mumbai Indians ( Bumrah, tilak, Hardik) but happened with Arshdeep, axar, dubey. Sky and varun were in bad shape in wc as well, only sanju, Abhishek and kishan did good here.

In regards to MI, think they didn't turn up as team. Bowling responsibility was on Bumrah and Boult, former did restricted runs on few encounters but overall both failed to pick up wickets and let's not talk about their batting, it was disappointing.

[Doll2233]

Similarly Rajasthan Royals have joined the strong teams by playing very well.With today win although if you look at it Mumbai India could have achieved a target of 205 runs from Rajasthan Royals if they wanted to because every team in IPL is capable of achieving a target of around 200 but Mumbai India missed this wonderful opportunity.Every batsman of Rajasthan Royals has strengthened the team score by scoring more runs in fewer balls.Although the highest score of 38 runs was scored by Rajasthan Royals all the batsmen worked hard while Surya kumar Yadav scored 60 runs alone for Mumbai India but due to the negligence of the rest of the batsmen they did not benefit. Mumbai India is a very weak team but Punjab Kings was on top from the beginning but now they are at number 5 due to negligence.

What a brilliant performance Delhi Capitals team showed in this inning. Kl Rahul played outstanding inning, he scored 60 runs in 30 overs in which they hit 5 fours and 4 sixes. Also another 4 players showed brilliant performance and they succeeded to gave a good total. On the other hand opponent team could not bowled well. In bowling line three bowlers proved expensive for team. Kartik Tyagi, Sunil Narain and varun. They bowled very poor bowling. They gave more runs and could not take wickets. And in batting side they took start well inning and scored well runs. Rahane played well inning, he scored 63 runs in 39 balls. Some other players add some runs well but other players could not perform well. They lost back to back wickets and could not chase this total. For Kolkata Knight Riders team this total was not tough if they played with planning and sensibly. Anyway they showed poor performance and lost the match very badly.

Today, the high-voltage match of IPL will see both teams enter the field with their highest performance to enter the final. GT team and RCB team have enough good players, world-class batsmen and bowlers. Although we can already see that RCB team has a slightly higher chance of winning, so if they can manage the game properly, then there will be a higher chance of winning. But GT team also has enough good players that will lead them to victory, in which case there will definitely be a good competition between the two teams. Since there is a win-lose in the game, any of the two teams will enter the final by showing a surprise in this match today, and the team that is more fortunate will win.

Definitely it is going to be an exciting and high voltage match between these two . Both teams are best and have a dangerous match winner players but if I have to go with one than that would be RCB . The main reason is that RCB has alot of confidence right now and their top batsmen are in great form. Even GT have a great bowling attack and a very smart team but I think RCB has more power in their batting lineup. If RCB win the toss and bowl carefully in final overs so there strong batting should easily help them win . I predict that RCB will win.

I was not expecting such kind of performance by New Zealand Women team. It was everything to bowl first as the hosts had New Zealand Women packed out at scanty score of 80 runs in 19.1 overs. Charlie Dean, the star spiner, was most certainly not playable, charging the lineup with remarkable 3/13, and pace spearhead Lauren Bell with 3/14. Jess Kerr  was alnone , with a resisting 20 runs, made any real resistance, the other members of the batting list falling under heavy fire, with unavoidable discipline.
Home side proceeded to chase small target at easy going pace, taking 13.5 overs to get small target in bat form in hand in order to end game on 81/3 and to secure comfortable 7-wicket win. That was the last T20I so now England has won the series with 2-1.

Total failure in this important match of series is a huge heart attack among the New Zealand fans. Single standalone effort of Jess Kerr only shows how mentally one dimensional rest of batting lineup appeared to be in stress. I do not think 81 will ever have troubled deep batting side such as England in their home country. They were tactful, took their time without making unnecessarily shot and anchored the pursuit with pure professionalism, to seal series win 2-1.
New Zealand must consider one area, how they head to the knockout games in regards to batting and they should improve their batting line otherwise they will not be able to compete with top teams.

Even I was expecting from the first ODI match that England women team will win the series but unfortunately New Zealand women team won one match so that ODI series was drawn.
And then here in the T20 series, I thought England women would win but that expectation was somewhat shattered by New Zealand women winning the second match and for the same reason in the third match I really didn't expect New Zealand women to lose so badly even though it is unusual for them to lose but they performed badly beyond expectations.

[CryptoYar]

Huge final round of tournament with playoffs stage is exciting. Both teams were totally matched with eighteen points apiece in league phase, and this gave them unbelievably even match. It is very important stage, and clash between strong batting line up with international superstars and very disciplined, team bowler that meets pressure well. I think it will be management of cold evenings and early swing in this special place that will be final winner in night. Although historic reputations build retail frenzy around singular batting stars, powerplay types of execution have been known to win playoff game. Group who succeeds in taking early wickets within initial six overs will easily put opponent into difficult situation and have way of reminding opponent how to follow through to end of knockout game.

Deffo disagreed. We haven't seen any exceptional talent, have we? If anything, all I remember from this season is absolute lacklustre fielding, made me wonder how you could be this pathetic and play in one of best cricket comp in the world.

Another shit controversy hit the IPL. Travis Head and Kohli seemed to have sort of issue in their recent match where SRH crushed RCB and I wasn't even aware of this until Head's wife posted about cricket trolls(Mainly RCB idiotas) targetting their family.

'SRH crushed RCB' — RCB didn't even try to win that game, just played it safe.

On trolls, Shreyas Iyer's sister was also trolled for some reel she posted earlier, and this was her response: https://x.com/mufaddal_vohra/status/2058947121190220109

This just made the whole SRH-RCB rivalry more intense.

Yes, that's why we have to see this match-up this season.

Immature Kohli and some of his braindead fans...smh!

Yes, immature indeed, still not sure why he behaved the way he did. I felt bad for Head.

Since there is a win-lose in the game, any of the two teams will enter the final by showing a surprise in this match today, and the team that is more fortunate will win.

Today is the Qualifier 1 match between the 1st and 2nd teams in the points table so it is expected to be a very competitive match. The team that wins this match will qualify for the final and the losers will get another chance but both the teams should give a great effort. This season there were two matches between the two teams where both the teams won one match each.

Anyway if we look at the performance of the last 5 matches then RT has lost only 1 match in the last 5 matches and RCB has lost 2 matches in the last 5 matches. So based on the performance I would like to put GT ahead. I have bet on GT in this match, let's see which team can win.
