Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]

[noormcs5]

I think most of us Bangladeshis fan were counting on Mominul Haque, especially Mominul Haque and Liton Das, to make the partnership bigger, but Mominul Haque got out with a partnership of 62 runs. Although it is impossible to touch the target for Bangladesh batsmen in this match, but if Mominul Haque and Liton Das could have made more partnerships, then maybe the gap in runs could have been reduced a bit.
I think the pair of Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Liton Das is a good pair for Bangladesh in this Test series, but given their scoring speed and the way they face the West Indies bowlers, I don't think these two will stay out for long. Finally, I would like to say one thing, it would be foolish to expect anything good from the Bangladesh team in this match.

There was little hope for Bangladesh first with Mominul Haque and then with Litton Das but they both got out after making 50 and 40 runs respectively. This is a test match and they should not get out after getting an eye in and look to play for a longer period of time. I wished that one of them had to stay till the end for Bangladesh to reach anywhere near to the West Indies score.

However, i think one thing that due to to these two batsmen innings, i hope the Bangladesh risk of getting a follow on is highly less now. they just need a 100 more runs to avoid the follow on and still 5 wickets in hand. Just a small partnerships will help Bangladesh avoid it. Bangladesh can still go for a draw in this match provided they do not hurry things in batting and play calmly.

[minairia3]

There is no batsman in Bangladesh who can form a long partnership. Mominul Haque is out with a half-century and Mehdi Hasan Miraj and Liton Das are trying to prolong Bangladesh's innings.
It can be said for sure that Bangladesh will be defeated if they cannot make a big run partnership. Because West Indies have declared an innings of 450 runs in their first innings, Bangladesh must score 350 runs even if they do not take the lead.

My guess was that Bangladesh would score less than 250 in their first innings. And that is more likely to happen. Liton and Mominul were able to bat a little better. But it was not enough. Bangladesh lost 6 wickets to score 166 runs. Mominul scored 50 runs and Liton scored 40 runs. Mominul and Liton are very experienced batsmen in the Bangladesh squad. These two batsmen needed to make a little bigger partnership.

At the moment, Bangladesh's score is 189 runs for the loss of 6 wickets. My guess is that Bangladesh will lose all their wickets by scoring 230-250 runs. Jaker and Taijul are not experienced batsmen. A big innings cannot be expected from these two.

The main weakness of the Bangladesh team is their batting order. There is not a single batsman in the squad who is capable of batting responsibly and playing big innings. The batting of every batsman in the squad is very irregular. However, due to the good performance of the bowlers, the Bangladesh team is sometimes able to win against big teams.

However, the Bangladeshi bowlers could not do well against the West Indies. Despite the pitch not being batting friendly, the West Indies scored 450 runs in the first innings. The Bangladesh team is close to scoring 203 runs for the loss of 6 wickets. If Jaker Ali stays at the crease, Bangladesh may be able to collect close to 300. However, the chances of this are very low. Jaker ALi is unbeaten with 31 runs.

[Unknown Op]

India outstanding batting performance in first inning declared the inning after scoring 487 runs in a loss of 6 wickets. India set a huge total of 534 runs for Australia to win this test match. Jaiswal and KL Rahul played a handsome 200 plus runs partnership that helped his team to score 500 plus total against Australia. Virat Kohli played a out classed inning scored a well deserved century after a long while. India amazing bowling after scored huge total and Jasprit Bumrah also bowl magical spell in second inning picked 2 important wickets including the big wicket of Labuschagne. it's seems very difficult now for Australia because they lost 3 quick wickets in just 12 runs. Australia needs 522 runs to win this test match and I don't think Australia have a chances to win this test match.

Really Unbelievable performance was displayed by Indian squad against another monster squad Australia but this time Australia squad played a bad match and their second batting Inning is ongoing and they lost their 3 crucial wickets in early stage and these three Nathan McSweeney, Marnus Labuschagne and Pat Cummins wickets was cleared out of Australian squad now they have great burden to remaining batters and I feel that Australia squad will accept defeat with big leading scores. Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Soraj these two bowlers picked up the Australian squad, two wickets was took Jasprit Bumrah and other one was picked by Mohammad Siraj. Virat Kohli successfully completed the scores of century after their innings end and he managed total 100 scores. Yashasvi Jaiswal completed two achievement first century and second he collected more 50 scores total 167. I will predict that Australia squad will achieve 100 scores and will face defeat by more than 400 scores.

[ZAINmalik75]

When Dhruv Jurel got out, I thought that it is going to be yet another instance of middle-order collapse for the Indians. But then, Washington Sundar joined Virat Kohli and stabilized the innings. India is leading by 387 runs at the moment, and they may bat until they get another 100-120 runs. And this is also another opportunity for Kohli to score some runs. Australian captain has once again resorted to the spinners, with Travis Head and Nathan Lyon in the attack right now.

Wow what a knock from king Kohli after a long time of bad stats, I think that century especially against Australia full strength squad will really help him to rebuild his confidence and make some more record before announced his retirement from international duty. Anyway indian scored a very handsome target at such difficult Australian situation which mostly team failed to does but all credit goes to young jasiwal and Rahul who degrade Australian bowler confidence and set momentum for his team. I know currently it's a very huge target of more than 500 for Australian to chase in two days which look like difficult but not impossible for them because any vital partnership between any two Australian duo can change game tune but if bumrah continue to get his wicket then definitely it Gona be any easy victory of Indian team

[As-Soon-As]

West Indies scored 250 runs for the loss of 5 wickets on the first day. I thought West Indies would be all out between 340-350 but in the end West Indies declared the innings by 450 runs. West Indies batsmen batted well with patience. Alick Athanaze and Mikyle Louis both got out unfortunately coming close to centuries, Justin Greaves batted well at the end and was unbeaten on 115 runs. Anyway, Bangladesh went into bat with a big run lead, so far Bangladesh has collected 40 runs with the loss of 2 wickets in 20 overs and the 2nd day's play is over. When the wickets of Bangladesh started to fall, wickets started to fall like a storm. The performance of Bangladeshi batsmen is not good. Bangladeshi batsmen cannot bat well with patience. I think it will not be possible for Bangladesh to score 450 runs in the first innings. Let's see how the Bangladeshi batsmen perform on the 3rd day.

It seems that Bangladeshi batters doing some recovery today because I was expected that Bangladesh team will going to lose more than 5 wicket until now but they lose only one wicket today.
And the Bangladesh team currently score 95 run and they loose three wicket even then Bangladesh trail by the 355 runs so I think it could be also really hard for them to chase. I stick to the West Indies team for winning this  match as well I do in the past.

West Indies International cricket  was not favorite for that match but that team played very incredible in that match. Bangladeshi team is not favorite against any team and no person could predict for that match but now West Indies is ahead and they will easily win this match and  now Bangladeshi team lost 4 wickets and they will lose this wickets without reaching close to the target. I think West Indies will give next batting to Bangladeshi team and West Indies will chase easily. Greaves made century in this match and he played crutial role in this match and many players participated to stand good total on board. Athanaze and Louis also gave incredible inning in this match.

Since the opening batsman was out, the Bangladesh team has been under heavy wicket pressure, Mahmudul Hasan Joy and Zakir Hasan have performed very badly this time opening. It is foolish to expect good runs from the Bangladesh team's score with these batsmen, Zakir Hasan has performed so badly in the past batches. Zakir Hasan can never bat at a strike rate, he should be stopped for this Test match.
Even though the bowling in the Bangladesh team is at a normal level in the squad, the batting is performing very abnormally, it is very difficult to take the Bangladesh team forward with such a performance. They have entered the field as top batsmen but their performance is very bad, they should not enter the field as opening batsmen with such a performance.

Yes, it is kind of a comeback from Virat Kohli. It is said that the record of a century can't be beaten. If he continues to score centuries often, it is possible to beat the record of Sachin, as Virat Kohli has reached 81 centuries, as he's just 19 centuries away from Sachin's record of 100 total centuries Indian performance is really surprising because the team that ended up with 150 runs has scored 487/6d in the second inning. Australia seems to be the same as the first inning, as they've lost 3 wickets for 12 runs. Let's see if the Australia team can make things turn in favour of them.

I thought earlier that Bangladeshi batsmen would perform so badly, should not expect too much from Bangladeshi batsmen. Yes, Zakir Hasan has been performing badly for a long time, I don't understand why such batsmen are given a chance in the team. I think Bangladesh batsmen lack practice, they should practice hard. Jaker Ali and Mominul Haque both scored half-centuries, and no other batsman managed to score half-centuries. Litton Das was dismissed for 40 runs. However, Bangladesh amassed 269 runs with the loss of 9 wickets, still trailing Bangladesh by 181 runs. Bangladesh will be all out in the beginning today. I can see the possibility of defeat of Bangladesh in this test as well.

I agree with you that Bangladeshi batsmen are not doing well. They have been having hard time and it is sad to see them not playing as well as we thought they would. Zakir Hasan has been playing badly for long time and it is confusing why he is still in team. I think one reason they are not doing well is that they are not practicing enough. They need to work harder to get better. Jaker Ali and Mominul Haque did well by scoring half centuries but overall team didn't do well. Bangladesh is behind by 181 runs so it will be hard for them to catch up. It is likely that they will lose this test match.

The performance of India in the second innings makes it impossible for Australia to beat them in this match. In the first innings, India's total was 150 which added to 487 in the second innings, on the other hand, Australia's total was 104 in the first innings and in the second innings they have already lost 3 wickets for 12 runs. In this situation, India's opponent will win the first match. But how did India score so many runs in the second innings on such a pitch? Yashasvi Jaiswal scored 161, on the other hand, Virat, who had negative comments in the previous Test series, now improved from that situation. His innings of 100 runs will definitely be appreciated.

We were thinking that the pitch have become better and that is why the Indian batsmen were able to make such a good score but as soon as the Australia started the 2nd innings, we knew that it was the performance of the Indian batsmen that they make such a nice score on the same pitch where Australian batsmen unable to bat. They lost three wickets for 12 runs and not its 90% confirm that Australia will lose this match.



Jasprit Bumrah took 2 wickets while Mohammed Siraj took a single wicket and they didn't let the Australian batsmen settle in the 4.2 overs that were played at the end of the day. I think Indian may take remaining wickets quickly and we may see this match ending in the 2rd or 3rd session tomorrow.

A huge setback for the Australian team as they lost half of their team in the fourth innings and at just 79 runs while chasing a target of 500 plus runs. I think it will be a very easy win for the Indian team and they will lead this Test series. After a very outstanding batting performance in the India team, he sent the Australian half team home with an impressive bowling performance. Mohammed Siraj picked the three important wickets by just giving 19 runs while captain of Jasprit Bumrah picked two wickets. Australia needs 455 more runs to win this match and its seems very difficult for now because Australia lost 5 wickets. I think India will clean bowled Australian team under 100 runs and get a huge margin of victory.

After India scored 300+, I was sure that Australia would not be able to win this match. Because it is very difficult for them to win by batting against a target of 300+ on this pitch. India has set a target of 534. It is almost impossible to win on such a big target on this pitch. Moreover, Australia's batsmen are not in good form.

Despite scoring only 150 runs in the first innings, India played brilliantly in the second innings. Especially from the opening pair, India scored 200+. Jaiswal was able to score 161 and Kohli was able to score 100 runs. On the other hand, Australia's top order could not do well in the second innings either. The total score of the first four batsmen of the top order is 9 runs.

Australia's score is only 104 runs after losing 5 wickets. Australia needs to score 430 more runs to win. Since Australia has already lost 5 wickets. So Australia has no chance of winning this match.

After losing three wickets for the first 12 runs in their second innings, the Australian batsmen tried several times to form a partnership but could not build a big partnership. Before the lunch break, Australia managed to accumulate 104 runs for 5 wickets on the scoreboard. The pair of Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh is very important for Australia. If these two can score big then Australia can reduce the margin of defeat a lot. But if the Indian bowlers can make these two wickets fall quickly, it won't take long for Australia to be all out. Australia really don't have much to do in this Test match now they just need to play well so that they don't lose humiliatingly against India. On the other hand beating Australia by a big margin on Australian soil is definitely a big achievement for India and it goes without saying that India will celebrate this win big.

[Swordsoffreedom]

Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh are now at the crease. These two batsmen are the most experienced batsmen in the Australian squad. And both of them have the ability to play big innings. Even then, I think the chances of Australia batting for 534 runs on this pitch are very low. And since today is the second session of the fourth day, there is no possibility of a draw in the match.


source: Google

I don't know how Google did it. India's chance of winning is 0.1% and Australia's chance of winning is 1%. I don't understand how India's chance of winning is 0.1% even after giving a huge target of 534 runs. Moreover, Australia has already lost 5 important batsmen in the top order. How is Australia's chance of winning still high? If Head-Marsh pair breaks, Australia's innings is going to end very quickly.

[As-Soon-As]

Here, the Australian team lost four consecutive wickets in a blink of an eye, but such a quick wicket loss for the Australian team is very dangerous for a Test match. Because the Australian team players still have to score 395 runs, because the Indian team has given a big run target. They have collected 159 runs in 35 overs for the exchange of 5 wickets, but the Australian team has already lost the top 5 attacking batsmen.

 The Australian team's run collection depends on these two batsmen, Mitchell Marsh and Head, as the important batsmen of the Australian team at the moment, because Travis Head has already collected 81 runs. In the end, if these two batsmen can perform well, then I think the Australian team will definitely have a chance to win.

[God Of Thunder]

Woh Woh!

It looks like Australia has no clue where they are playing right now. Travis Head has just returned to the pavilion, and they had only four more wickets in hand but 368 runs to chase, which is impossible now. When Yashasvi Jaiswal was playing, it seemed the wicket was turned into a batting-friendly pitch. But now it seems like it was all Yashasvi Jaiswal's talent, and he managed to stay that long.

The result is almost certain. The Indians are going to win the match by a big margin. It was a good comeback from them. Virat Got his century after a long time. Credit to him as well. He played well. India needs four more wickets now to end the match.

I don't know how Google did it. India's chance of winning is 0.1%, and Australia's chance of winning is 1%.

It’s weed effect, bro. I wish I could bet against them.

[Nrcewker]

Here, the Australian team lost four consecutive wickets in a blink of an eye,

Now Travis Head is also gone. The Australia team is really struggling against this new Indian bowling lineup (excluding Bumrah). We have to praise Bumrah and Siraj for their continuous pressure against the Aussies, and with the audacity Harshit is bowling today, it doesn’t seem that it’s his debut match. The Indian batters did a brilliant job in the second innings, specifically Jaiswal and Virat, for which India are now a few wickets away from winning the game. I think captain Rohit Sharma will join the team from the 2nd test.

No one expected such a drubbing from India. Australia are trailing by 355 runs, with just 3 wickets in hand. They suffered a batting collapse in the first innings, and then the same happened in the second innings as well. Travis Head was the only Australian batsmen to offer any sort of resistance, but he also fell before reaching the three digit mark. Now it is just a matter of time, with Mitchell Starc and Alex Carey at the crease. Mitchell Marsh just got out, nabbed by debutant Nitish Kumar Reddy.

It was really surprising that India would come back with an incredibly good performance in the second innings.  But just like the first innings, Australia suffered a batting disaster in their second innings as well.  Now there is no chance for Australia to draw or win the match. Especially now, if these two batsmen Alex Carry and Mitchell Starc are out, then Nathan Lyon and Josh Hazlewood can extend the innings, but cannot save them from a draw or defeat.

[libert19]

Head was looking headache again, but glad was destroyed in time. Padikkal dropped Marsh and missed run-out (definitely wasn't easy but a better fielder might have done it) — Padikkal is definitely a goner next match. Jurel's catch of Starc, absolutely beauty! Put good fielders at silly point/short leg.

Eddit: Corrected fine leg to short leg.

If they hadn't lost the early wickets yesterday, it would have been a possibility. Although the score is very high. Travis Head did well enough and if two other players could have extended the score, it would have been a possibility. Mitchell Marsh has been able to do something from his position. The middle and lower order have been able to score quite a bit more than the previous innings. We have nothing more to gain from this match. The upcoming match will be competitive because both the teams have already got an idea of ​​the pitch conditions and the bowler's action. Australia will lose by the same margin as Yashasvi Jaiswal scored in the second innings for India.
