T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[JSRAW]

✂✂✂✂
Squad is out, in t-20 only surprise was Hardik missing out ( maybe due to injury) and Reddy's inclusion.

At the moment, there can be only one pace bowling allrounder in the playing XI. And for now, that spot goes to Nitish Kumar Reddy. Pandya had an average IPL season, and maybe he needs a break now. Other options are Venkatesh Iyer and Shardul Thakur, but they were not being considered. Still surprised with the inclusion of Samson in the squad. How many opportunities need to be given to this guy? And in case Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Abhishek Sharma opens the bat, with Ishan Kishan at the no.3 position, I can't imagine him getting a place in the XI.

Indian team piggy back on sanju in WC knockouts tho so taunting about "how many chances" isn't fair imo.

I also think new kid should get chance but not like this, it should be smooth transition. Still have plenty of time for experiment at the opening slot.

Management has moved on from thakur ji and venky is nowhere in discussion.

Pakistan Women wanted a bit of a test in this warm up match, hence they gave Sri Lanka a nice target to chase. The best target to beat in Women T20 cricket is more than 160 runs. But here Sri Lanka Women had amazing performance as their batters did not give any breathing space to Pakistan Women bowlers. A team losing a wicket and still making good runs to the scoreboard so easily shows that their top order is in great shape for World Cup. Pakistan Women side just have to improve their plan for the bowlers soon as they are simply letting wickets go due to such easy catches.

That was not two sided match as Sri Lanka W team performance was excellent in this match and they chased the target in second last over . Pakistan W International cricket team made an average target in this match and they should try to make 200 runs in this match and their bowling was also very weak in this match . Chamari Athapaththu gave her all effort to win this match because she made a 94 score in this match and she played 58 Balls in this match. She hit 9 fours and 5 sixes in this match and she was a top quality player in this match. Vishmi Gunaratne also played well in this match and she made half century in this match and she made 63 runs in just 50 balls . Vimukthi took 4 wickets in this match and she was a top class player in this match because no player could take 4 wickets in this match besides that player.

To be honest I don't feel anything about Sky being left out of the team. In my opinion he has been one of the most disappointing players in India's ODI and T20 squads. In the tournaments that India won, his contribution was nathing. The only player I feel sorry for is Shreyas Iyer. He truly deserves a place in the Indian team. He has been one of India's most consistent performers and is  the best middle order batsman in the country right now and he should definitely be a part of Indias squad.

The only significant contribution I remember from him is that catch in T20 wc, which sealed the trophy for India and I do give full accolades for that — to take that catch was something in pressure situation. As for ODI contributions, he was added as Hardik's replacement in ODIWC '23 and holy fuck, the sheer disappointment he was.

I ain't sure if Shreyas should be T20 squad, but should be no brainer for ODIs.

Pakistani team began the game strongly, in power play they added 60 runs. But soon Sri Lankan team broke down their momentum by building pressure through ball. The decision to handing the  ball to Vimukhthi proved to be excellent for them. He smashed 4 important players of Pakistani team. His spell was electrifying the the energy ,and added thrilled among the supporter of  Sri Lankan team. However Pakistani team finished their turn on 168 runs. Sri Lankan team stepped up with confidence because the target was easy. They wrapped this win on the loss of only one wicket. Athapaththu played an ideal innings, significantly added 94 runs. He has the ability to read each ball of opponents and decided his response according to that. No doubt Sri Lankan showcased their strong performance today on County Ground.

This was the third match of the World Cup warm up in which Sri Lanka woman win this match.Sri Lanka woman won this match with 9 wickets and 9 balls remaining.The reason for Pakistan Women defeat was also that Pakistan Women did not work hard at all in the previous series  Pakistan Women need a lot of practice to improve themselves and become stronger.If Pakistan Women had bowled well then they would have been confident of 168 runs while Pakistan Women bowlers took only 1 wicket and did not bowl hard so Sri Lanka woman easily succeed in their target.Sri Lanka woman was such a strong and powerful team that only the first two batsmen were able to achieve the target alone.Pakistan had great batting but it is very important to improve the bowling action.

Yo, I came across something funny when surfing YT — Sanjeev Goenka: Pant The future of IPL

Not sure if Pant was sacked or left captaincy by himself (irrespective of whatever the note says) but now this video has become funny after that happening; must put emphasis on 'mark my words' part, it just makes it much better.

It's in hindi though but Goenka is basically saying: Pant will play for LSG for next 15 years or so and should be winning 6 ipl titles or so during this timeframe and he'll fall into same league as in other successful IPL captains like MSD, Rohit (feel free to do better translation).

The ECB have brought forward start times for England's floodlit T20Is against India next month in order to maximise TV viewing figures.

India's men will tour for eight white-ball games from July 1-19, with five T20Is and three ODIs. The three evening games in the five-match T20I series were initially scheduled to begin at 6.30pm local time (11pm IST), as announced by the ECB last year, but have since been brought forward to 5.30pm (10pm IST) starts after discussions with broadcasters.

Start times for England's home internationals are finalised after consultation between the ECB, venues, opposition boards, and domestic and overseas broadcasters - in this case, Sky Sports (UK) and the Sony Sports Network (India).

The change in start times from the 6.30pm slot, which has become standard in recent seasons, underlines English cricket's reliance on "high-value broadcast series" - effectively, those which feature India - which was laid bare in the ECB's recently published financial report.

India Women vs West Indies Women

26-run win in warm-up match is a huge message by the Indian Women, especially ahead of the T20 World Cup. I think the Windies got into typical spin trap in their chase which brought their run to a sudden stop. 180 can be reached with fast teamwork, and Shreyanka Patil's four wicket finish with top position and Radha Yadav careful cheap spell in the middle stopped the West Indian bats. WI, however, never really had control of needed rate of run until the late fight of their last order. As India leave with their middle order looking very strong and ready, West Indies will have to get their middle order batting and bowling in order quickly to make sure of their stay in the tournament.

Exactly such a result, especially just before start of the tournament, is great confidence builder for the team. I feel stopping the batters in the middle overs will be our major weapon in this whole campaign. I believe using controlled squeeze and not waiting for bats to be wrongly placed or errors is game changing approach. Swing will be this big even if the change is the same, it will be difficult for the most aggressive chasing side to keep pace with the necessary run rate. It is huge, it is statement of purpose and it is also huge proof that side is at the absolute peak of their form to make title claim.

India women's team is very strong. It is difficult for any strong team to defeat this team. India played well in this warm up match against West Indies. Smriti, Yastika and Fulmali batted well. Especially FUlmali's unbeaten 56 runs innings was very necessary. On the other hand, no other batsman of West Indies could bat well except the two openers. West Indies collected 63 runs from the opening pair. Opener Deandra Dottin was able to play an innings of 49 runs. This time India has a big chance of winning the Women's T20 World Cup.

Yes, it is always satisfying if you win the warm-up matches ahead of the actual World Cup matches and the Indian team looked in good form today. Indian Women's top order played well today with the openers having a good start. Later on, Bharti Fulmali also played an unbeaten 56-run innings, but the lower middle order got out pretty quickly; that doesn't matter when your top order is in good form. Also, in the bowling, Radha Yadav and Shreyanka Patil were pretty impressive as they shared seven wickets between them.

Deandra Dottin played very slow in this match and her performance was very poor in this match because strike was a big factor which could give that team win . Campbelle also played very slow in this match And her strike rate was a big issue in this match And after these two players no player could stay on the Wicket And  IND W cricket team easily won this match. Shreyanka Patil took 4 important wickets in this match and she was top performer in this match because she bent the match to their sides as target was not big in this match And West Indies W team is very aggressive. Radha Yadav performance was good in this match because she took 3 wickets in this match and made a match for her team and team coordination was strong in this match..

Bharti Fulmali played a much needed inning scoring a well deserved half century and reached India women target to 180 runs for west indies women. While chasing down a huge total West indies women only managed to score 153 runs by losing its eight wickets and lost match by 26 runs against Indian women. Deandra Dottin openers of west Indies women played well scoring 49 runs, unfortunately she missed his well deserved half century by one runs short. The bowling performance of Indian women bowler Shreyanka Patil is impressive to watch picking four important wickets in his bowling spell and Radha Yadav also bowl a wonderful spell picked three crucial wickets by just giving only 25 runs economy rate of around 6 runs per over with this effort she assited Indian women to win match quiet easily.

This was the third match of the World Cup warm up in which Sri Lanka woman win this match.Sri Lanka woman won this match with 9 wickets and 9 balls remaining.The reason for Pakistan Women defeat was also that Pakistan Women did not work hard at all in the previous series  Pakistan Women need a lot of practice to improve themselves and become stronger.If Pakistan Women had bowled well then they would have been confident of 168 runs while Pakistan Women bowlers took only 1 wicket and did not bowl hard so Sri Lanka woman easily succeed in their target.Sri Lanka woman was such a strong and powerful team that only the first two batsmen were able to achieve the target alone.Pakistan had great batting but it is very important to improve the bowling action.

Sri Lanka won this match due to their strong grip on both bat and ball. They restricted Pakistani team on the low scores. Only openers showed some resistance but soon Sri Lanka broke down this partnership through their fierce bowling. Vimukhti was the prominent bowler in this regard, it is not wrong to ay that he was the reason of Sri Lanka's win. Batsman were weak to understand or read the opponents balls that's why they face quick wickets falls. Sri Lanka celebrated their win because of full preparation and strong partnerships. Pakistani team should pay more focus on the preparation or selection of the players as well to overcome the challenges in future.
