Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]

WI is a more pathetic team than Srilanka, they failed to qualify for the ODI World Cup. They are not that good in test cricket and are ranked below Srilanka in test ranking. They do not have batters with mentally strong enough to play long innings and they lack specialist bowlers for long formats. There was a time when they dominated both test and ODI and that time has long passed. Australia is the best team in the world in test cricket and the possibility of a whitewash cannot be denied in the upcoming series.

This series will help Aussies in improving there test stats. There will be lots of cricket in Australia for WI, they will play 2 test, 3 ODIs and 3 T20Is. In test its almost impossible to beat Aussies at there home. They have an excellent test record at home. I don't think WI team is capable of facing mighty Australians at there home. WI only have a chance in T20I series.

West Indies will not be able to make a good advantage against Australia in two Test matches and three ODIs. That's because Australia has already played a great Test match against Pakistan, Australia batsmen have performed brilliantly, so West Indies can't beat Australia, there's no chance of losing the ODI match either. Because Australia team is in great form since winning the World Cup, their batsmen are batting brilliantly and bowling well. Because of this, it will never be possible for West Indies to beat Australia in Tests and ODIs. But if West Indies play well in T20 matches then maybe they can win a T20 match against Australia. Now let's see how well West Indies can perform against Australia.

There is tour match going on between WI and CAXI. The domestic teams of Australia are as good as there test team and so far WI has done a good job. WI scored 251/8 in first innings before declaring it. In reply CAXI were bowled out for 175 runs. This performance just gave a hint that WI might perform good in upcoming test against Australia.

An warm up is being held between Cricket Australia XI and West Indies. Batting first, West Indies scored 251 runs to declare their innings in this warm-up cricket match. Later when Cricket Australia came to bat, they were all out for 174 runs in 54.4 overs. Now again West Indies are batting in their second innings and they have collected 56 runs for the loss of two wickets in 12 overs.Based on the performance of this warm up match it is understood that the West Indies team is going to present a good series against the Australian team. Looking at the list of West Indies cricket team players for this match, it seems that most of their players are new.

You are right that cricket is a game of uncertainty, the team that performs well on the field will win. But if we look at the test matches between Australia and Pakistan, we will definitely understand how powerfully Australia has won almost every match. From that side it is expected that Oostende will win the Test match in Australia but still it cannot be said that if West Indies can perform well then West Indies can win. Best wishes to both teams. If West Indies play well in T20 then maybe we will see competitive T20 series against Australia. But I will put Australia ahead in Test match. West Indies may have performed well before. Current Australia team is performing well. From that point of view, the Test series against West Indies is expected to be Australia .

There is nothing to predict it is a known fact that there is no match between these two teams. There was a time when WI was feared in international cricket in the past decade they have lost it. They do not have players suitable to play in the ODI, how will they play a 5-day match? It is not that I underestimate the WI, it is simple I do not estimate them against the mighty Australians. If you are planning to bet on WI in the upcoming test series then you would lose money. Do not overthink about them they will be out of the ICC cricket playing nation in the future.

Absolutely I agree with you, cricket is indeed a game of uncertainties, and performance on the field is most important. Reflecting on the Test matches between Australia and Pakistan emphasizes Australia's dominant record. While expectations favor Australia in the upcoming Test match against West Indies, the unpredictable nature of cricket means anything can happen. Considering Australia's current strong performance, they are likely to have an edge in the Test series against West Indies.

I agree with you, also I'm a supporter of AUS but also I liked the performance of the Legend player of WI. You know that WI wasn't a normal team before. The WI government can't give the support of Cricket players. If the WI players get proper utilization from the government then they will come back strongly. I won't one of the famous teams vanish from this cricket world. I hope the West Indies cricket team will come back soon.

@roksana.hee the difference between Australia and other teams is their mentality which is set to dominate and win every match and if you see each and every player’s of theirs just doesn’t want to win they want to crush their opponents and that’s why they do well in all formats. Lastly Pakistan needs to rebuild before they can challenge a team like Australia because currently they’re not ready to face the big 4 but they do have player’s who can definitely step up provided they’re given the correct guidance.

On stumps day 2, West Indies got a lead of 214 runs with 7 wickets in hands and it seems like we will see result of this game. Tagenarine Chanderpaul son of legend Shivnarine Chanderpaul scored just 17 runs in his both innings. West Indies batting is backed by his bowling also in this game, if this continue in test series then WI can produce good results.

In the warm-up match the West Indies scored 137 runs for three wickets in their second innings.They are already 214 runs ahead of the CAXI. Joshua da Silva of the West Indies team has so far scored the highest 55 runs for their team. The West Indies team will resume play on the third day and maybe they will be able to do more in this innings than the first innings and even win the Test match against the CAXI.

Australia is currently having clear edge against all teams in all formats as they are dominating team in both men and women's with their best and strongest structure which is having impressive impact and their recent wins against Pakistan is clearly giving impression how strong they are, and now we have West Indies which is also not good side with having too many problems most chances we will have no resistance from the West Indian for having another clean sweep which will keep them at the top of the WTC table.

In ODI and T20I, we can expect some better performance from the visitors but in this red-ball format most chances things will be in complete control of the Australian team which is starting after retirement of their legendary opener David Warner.

You are right since winning the 2023 world cup Australia team is in great form they are playing well in every match. Especially in the three Test matches against Pakistan, Australia's batsmen have batted exceptionally well. Australia team has won three Test matches due to excellent batting. Australia team will do very well against West Indies because every Australian player bats well. Australia's bowling is excellent so it looks like they will do very well against the West Indies.  Maybe West Indies team can do well in T20 if they play well Westin T20 match we will see competitive match. On the one hand the players of the Australian national team are doing great and on the other hand the Australian women's team is winning with a bang against India.

After watching humiliating defeat of Pakistan against Australia in three matches series I am having not good hopes for the West Indies as they are currently at their lowest level in all formats with having no good chance of improvement in near future but their bowlers still done good job in this three day match and having good and quick wickets for the all hopefully tomorrow we will have result of this match as well with right now they are leading by 214 runs and just 80 to 90 more runs are good enough for them to have give batting to Cricket Australia XI for having some more practice for their bowlers before start of the first test match which is going to play at Adelaide, on January 17.

Australians are true professionals and their cricket board is very supportive of their players. And that is also one of the reasons why Australian players are some of the highest paid cricketers in the world. Indian players on the other hand are swimming in wads of cash, but they focus more on showoff rather than professionalism. And now coming to West Indies, I am not sure whether they can be competitive against the Australians. They performed poorly in the tour match against Cricket Australia XI (which didn't had any player with international experience).

Currently, Australians are doing one of the best things in sports, and they are surely taking good benefit of them as well like cricket at the top and rugby and field hockey are also best and few other sports they are enjoying because they are grooming their youths from early ages and bring best of them at right time which is surely amazing with now it's time for the Indians to learn and bring some better changes even it's not easy and not happening in near future because too many problems and other difficulties which are clearly not allowing them, but now money is also not used wisely which is also creating problems.
West Indies could be going for like we have Pakistan few days back and most chances these two test matches are going to be one-sided affair but good for the home side as thy will be able to have the good number of points for the WTC league table.

Indian cricket is now tightly coupled with there film industry and that's why there is too much showoff in Indian cricket. They are too good at there home ground but average performer when playing outside.
West Indies playing good against Cricket Australia XI, on day West Indians lead by 356 runs and they have bowled out Cricket Australia XI in there first innings on just 175 runs. West Indies dont have the capability to beat Aussies but they must give there best here to make sure they don't lose by big margins.

When was the last time the West Indies performed well against Australia while playing in Oz? I remember a tour two decades back when Ramnaresh Sarwan had his career almost destroyed as a result of poor performance there. And then he got into some ugly spat with McGrath as well. Australian bowlers are deadly while bowling at home. Only a very few opposition batsmen have been successful against them. On top of that, this time West Indies doesn't have a lot of experienced players in their squad.

It was always like this Bollywood and Cricket both have been associated or linked with each other. When India and Pakistan had good relations some Pakistani players were frequent to Bollywood parties and some had their girlfriends from the industry. Glamour and Cricket go hand in hand in India there is no denying it. Indian team is good in their home ground like other teams that is why we use the term home ground advantage. Playing in SENA countries has always been difficult for cricket teams from the subcontinent due to the pitch.

West Indies unless they win I won't say they are playing well. Again it is not the proper Australian team that they are playing with as it is the B team.
