Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]

[cryptoWODL]

Test cricket is the real cricket for the players. In test cricket practice they judge a player's performance. Test match is basically a practice game. According to me, there are very few people who watch test match.

Test cricket not enjoyable cricket and nobody enjoy test cricket. We only see the players who are playing test cricket and test cricket changed his mindset.

I saw many big players who played test matches and after the test series,they could not perform well in ODI and T20 formats . ODI and T20 formats are totally different from Test cricket but many cricket boards select the same players for ODI, T20 and Test formats.

 I saw Warner ,I know he is a big players but after playing the  test series,he became tuk player and he dotted many balls in the ODI cricket. That was time but he changed his attitude by controling his mind but that is very tough for the players.Test cricket should be remove and that place,there should be more T20 World Cups and then there will be more enjoyment and there will be more opportunities for businessman to do the business.

You might be wrong first got the most fame in test cricket and was very popular. From the history it is known that Test playing was recognized since 1877. First there was Test format then ODI format and T20 format. When the ODI format was introduced in cricket, the popularity of the Test format decreased slightly as ODIs took less time than Tests. Again when T20 format was introduced in cricket, it became more popular than ODI. Nowadays we see T-Ten being launched again in various leagues which are shorter and more popular.

Test players are different in every country and players who play regular Test matches do not do well in ODI and T20 format. You said test cricket should be done away with, maybe test cricket will be there as long as ICC is there, currently test championships are organized to popularize test cricket. The competition starts with Test matches between different countries to play in this Test Championship.

You need to recheck your comments as few days back I have your post which was in favor of test cricket, and now you are going against this so stop this all if you have no idea about cricket because it's all spamming test is never been bored cricket still good and enjoyable but in last few years we are having change of priorities which are bringing some problems but still five or six teams are doing good for the game, and we will have them for the long time which is good for this format.
Even most of the countries are having trouble due to structure and finances but still this can exist for the long time because we are having strong base in top three which are doing good and having strong teams.

Test Cricket is a slow-motion cricket. It's not popular with all types of cricket lovers. Although it's a game where a player proves themself by playing long in the field. Just it one site goodness, but test cricket isn't a game of enjoyment. If test cricket is loved by all cricket lovers then then ODI match and T20 matches will not be invented.

I think very soon, the Cricket Council invented T10 game (Top 10). I hope this game will be more popular among all classes of people. This will be a fighting game called... "Boom" "Boom" "T10"

[Publictalk792]

After a long time an official test match is coming between India Women vs South Africa Women .
They have played the ODI series recently and India Women team won the series with 3-0. But I appreciate the South Africa Women team performance too. Well both teams are good. So we can't say anything at this time. The match will start on 28 June. I hope both will play good. But here still India women team is looking much stronger. But there is a big difference between ODI format and Test match format so we can't say anything. May be South Africa Women team will perform well and try to win this match. So let's wait for the 28 and Match start.

Nowadays world has become fast moving. People doesn't have time to spend 8 hours a day continuously for 5 days, and that too for a match where there is guarantee that there will be a definite outcome. Still there are a lot of middle aged and elderly people who continue to follow test cricket. But from what I have seen among my friend circle and among my relatives, hardly anyone in the younger age groups follow longer versions of cricket. Forget about test cricket, even ODI cricket is not popular among them.

Test match between India Women and South Africa Women is coming up and it is going to be exciting. India women team won ODI series with 3-0 but South Africa Women team played well too. India women seems stronger but South Africa Women could surprise us. And you are right Test match is different from ODI format so we can not predict what will happen. Both teams might face challenges and it will be interesting to see how they play on June 28. I wish both teams good luck it's going to be great match. But still I think India women team is looking more stronger as compare to South Africa Women team.

Indian women team decided to bowl first in the only test against South Africa. The openers are unbeaten at lunch and made 130 run without losing any wickets. Both Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana are playing in their Sixty’s and hopefully one of them will make a hundred too, if not both.


The interesting thing about South Africa women team is that they have tried 6 bowlers in the 28 overs being bowled so far but still none of them is able to make a break through. By the way, it will be interesting to see how the Indian women bowlers bowl on this red soil pitch. They have included three spinners in their team named Sneh Rana , Deepti Sharma, and Rajeshwari Gayakwad. The pitch does not show any support for the fast bowlers too. Maybe it will change on the 4th and 5th day of this test match.

Right now, we are having wTest no 149 at the Chepauk, Chennai between home team India w vs South Africa w with after winning toss Indian w decided to bat first and this was one of the best decision by Indian team with after winning toss they have opening partnership of 292 as both openers done impressive work and having centuries In front of their names Shafali Verma hits double ton 205 and Smriti Mandhana having 149 as things are going most chances we will have 550 before end of the first day play.

Indian team is doing amazing job in this format as they beat Australia at home and now having South Africa with amazing batting they can win this match as well by big margin with we still have nearly 15 overs remaining in first day's play.

Indian Women's team clearly in control of the game at the end of Day 1. Only 4 wickets have gone down on day 1 while the Indian batting lineup scored 525 runs. South Africa bowlers struggled to get wickets on day 1 and now it will be a big ask for their batting lineup to level the Indian team's first inning score. Indian team might declare their innings tomorrow after scoring 600 runs. Before this test, Indian women team has whitewashed South African women in ODI series of three matches.

Yes, 1 st day was completed today and India-W team won the toss and they got a chance to take first bat or bowl and India-W team choose bat first. This game was playong on MA Chidambaram Stadium. South Africa-W team already lost one series in past and their effort in this series was very poor and now again their team effort was not good at this time in bowling lineup. In 1 st day, India-W team grabbed total 525 runs in 98 overs by losing 4 wickets. S Verma completed double brilliant century and total made 205 runs in 197 balls and she hitted 23 4s and eight 6s. Her batting inning strugge was super brilliant and one other batsman also played very well and she scored 149 runs in 161 balls nad she hitted one 6s and 27 4s. Both these batsman was now dismissed from pitch. H.Kaur and R.Ghosh both are still playing their lineup with good start and both are very close to their half century and I see the effort of this player Kaur in past games, she also very good player and hope we see another century of this player if their team continues play their inning.

The Indian Women's team had some fun today.

-Highest opening partnership in Women's tests.
-Second highest runs partnership for any wicket in Women's tests.
-Most runs(525) scored on a single day in the Women's tests.
-Fastest double ton for Shafali in Women's tests.
-Shaifali smashed 8 sixes today, no other women cricketer managed to cross even 5 sixes in their entire test career.

[Out of mind]

I was really surprised to see the result of India Women's team vs South Africa Women's first test match today. India women team has collected such a big score on the first day they are really batting amazing, in this test match women team is playing much better than men team. India Women's batsman Shafali Verma batted brilliantly in today's match, and her collection of 205 runs off 197 balls made it very interesting.
Moreover, Smriti Mandhana was in excellent batting form with 149 runs off 161 balls, everyone was impressed by the batting performance of these two. India women's team scored 525 runs today in the first day's test match with the loss of 4 wickets, but the team has the potential to make a bigger score.

Such a good opening partnership performance is worth a record, as the opening batsman Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana have had a long partnership here. But the subsequent wickets performed much better on the first day. Shafali Verma scored 205 off 197 balls, and Smriti Mandhana scored 149 off 161 balls. 

Today's Test match has done well keeping the wickets in check and India Women's team has a chance to play again for the second day. If the players of South Africa women's team perform like this, then they will definitely lose this match, because so far the Indian team has scored 525 runs in 98 overs.

[Bitcoin_people]

The performance of the India women's team on the first day was truly remarkable. South Africa Women's team may not win Test matches with India either. Batting first in today's match, India women's team made a remarkable score, 525 runs on the first day, which South Africa women's team will never reach. As India women team scored huge runs by losing 4 wickets on the first day, however, they will bat more excitedly on the second day. And I think South Africa women's team will never be able to meet the target given by India but India will achieve it by a huge margin in the first test match.

Indian team might declare their innings tomorrow after scoring 600 runs. Before this test, Indian women team has whitewashed South African women in ODI series of three matches.      

Currently Indian women are in good form they have hosted ODI series, Test series and T20 series against South Africa women team. However, the ODI series between them has already been played with Indian women winning each match to take the ODI series 3-0 against South Africa women. The only test match between the two teams has started today. Where the bowling lineup of South Africa failed again. Two batsmen of the Indian women's team scored a century in this match, one of them scored a double century.

But I am most surprised by Smriti Mandana's current performance. This female player scored 117 runs in the first match of the ODI series. He also scored a century in the second ODI and scored 136 runs and in the third ODI he was dismissed for 90 runs narrowly missing out on a century. Perhaps a continuation of his good batting performance which saw him score a century in his only Test match. The Indian women's batsmen ended the first day with 525 runs for 4 wickets and they will have a chance to play again tomorrow. Maybe Indian women will go for a big collection and then declare an innings.

Indian women team are on fire especially thier opener mandhana who consecutively scored a two century in his last three matches and scored a 90+ innings too in second last match and now continue his journey with another century in first test match of the series against South Africa and I think that the player who set momentum for his team. Anyway Indian team scored a 500+ runs till now in first day of test match and just lose 4 wickets, while I am impressed from indian opener verma who build a huge partnership 290+ runs along side with his partner and scored a single handedly double century. Now I believe after 700 or around it they will declare innings which I believe a decent decision because south Africa will not able to even go close to that target. Hope indian team will continue his winning streak here too after previous white wash series

[JahriMeayer]

India Women vs South Africa Women test match started, India Women won the toss and opted to Bat. And I can't imagine india women team can play this way, i mean they just break all the batting records. Shafali Verma (*205) did double century alone, Smriti Mandhana(149) did century and estimate an half century. Rest of players also played too good but these two players really Showed us legendary performance. Now Harmanpreet Kaur and Richa Ghosh are on the batting and close to half century. And they Total collected 525-4 runs in 98 Overs, Which is a strong amount of Target for South Africa Women, in my opinion.

[ThemePen]

What a great day in the first inning of India women team and South Africa Women team only test match. Shafali Verma and Simriti Mandhana just did an excellent performance. Shafali Verma made double century which was unexpected. And Simriti Mandhana made 149 runs. In total they played 98 overs and they made 525 runs and they lost only 4 wickets and they will continue the second today. And I am looking that they will go above 600 easily. And I don't think so the South Africa Women team will give any lead to them. So let's see what will happen.?

Exactly Indian Women team played extra ordinary. Especially these two players which you have already mentioned. First is Shafali Verma she was just amazing she made double century means made 205 runs. I really appreciate her batting because in her playing she hit 8 sixes too. And Simriti Mandhana is the heroen of the Indian Women team she play consistently in matches. She played really well in ODI series and she played really well in this test match too. She made 149 runs which and excellent score. In total India made 525 runs which is an excellent score too. And you are right I also don't think so the South Africa Women team will not give any lead to them because score is very high.
