Got 2.9 odds for NZ , that is something I cannot push away although I know Aussies are the favorites . Nz are capable team who defeated Indian team in their last series so anything about 2.5 odds is worth the risk .

I missed the window, odds are average for both teams now so skipping the game. consider yourself lucky that you got good odds for kiwis, they seems in good position and might cross the line comfortably.

Edit : Ops 1 wicket down..

Edit 1 : 3rd wicket down....

NZ require another 86 in 67 balls and have 3 wickets in hand . They had being losing wickets at regular intervals due to which their has not being any kind of good partnership which can help them to reach near the Oz score . Though the asking rate is rising continuously need to check how close NZ can reach and can they survive full 50 overs .

Yup because more than 80 people have been confirmed to have coronavirus in India and also India witnessed its first death because of Coronavirus so yeah it is a sensible move although they could have placed behind closed doors just like Aussies and Nz did today .
Even the IPL is postponed -> https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/ipl/top-stories/its-official-ipl-2020-postponed-to-mid-april-due-to-coronavirus/articleshow/74609776.cms

The worst news for me was the postponement of IPL and there is nothing concrete that it will start in April. If things go from bad to worst they might cancel it completely for this year. I was very much looking forward to this tournament.

That was always on the radar and I was little surprised when initially they said that it will continue as per schedule beacuse this is something which cannot be taken lightly and if anything happens to players then who would be responsible and government would not like to take chance when they want to control things as it’s getting worst day by day in country as numbers are on rise of such cases .

NZ defiantly would be unhappy the way they had batted as the chase was not that difficult and losing by 71 runs when just have to chase 258 is a big thing. . NZ could not build a good partnership which could have taken the game from Oz . NZ will have to rethink now so that they can be back in the next match with a win and make series interesting .

Why do I feel that this is just the beginning and by next match Newzealand will be a complete different team with a different approach. They did the same with India a d they might do the same with the Australians.

We always have to look at the big picture isn't it ? India just had its 2nd death due to coronavirus in matter of 2 days and hence all the decisions regarding sports are right and we just have to be okay with it right now .
There are tournaments which have a tradition of being played for more than 100 years in other sports ( like French open and other grand slams ) which might potentially not be played this time , just imagine that .

The New Zealand bowlers did well to restrict Australia to 258. Trent Boult bowled very economically, and Lockie Ferguson (back in the national team after three months) picked up the wickets. But their batting failed.

Well.. I am glad that this match went forward. The boards have cancelled the T20 series between the two teams, and from what I have learnt the remaining two matches from the ODI series have been also called off. So I guess we may not be witnessing much cricketing action for the next few months.

Exactly, 28 years ago on this day, March 25, Pakistan won their first ever One day International world Cup in 1992. It was a day to remember and a rejoice for the nation.     Happy Memories.

The Pakistani team of 1992 was legendary. They were captained by their best ever captain (Imran Khan, who is now the Prime Minister of Pakistan). The Pakistani pace battery back then was probably the best at that time. They had bowlers such as Wasim Akram and Aaqib Javed. Even the batting lineup was very strong, including Inzamam-ul-Haq, Aamir Sohail, Javed Miandad, Rameez Raja and Moin Khan.

That was the time when Pakistan had really very good fast bowlers and who were one of the best in the world. As the years pass by once all this legendry retired then we dint had many who were there for a long time. Many came and gone for short duration but not like who had served the country for 10 years or so. Shoaib was one of them who was very quick and did well for his country.

Reverse swing was first invented by Pakistani pace bowlers during the 1990s (especially Wasim Akram, Aaquib Javed, Waqar Younis and Mudassar Nazar). It took more than a decade for the other players to learn this trick. And this gave them a huge advantage during that time, as the other bowlers (who depended more on seam, rather than swing) struggled on flat sub-continental tracks.

Best ever Reverse Swinger was Sarfraz Nawaz he give good tips to Imran Khan and Mudassar Nazar then its shifter to others like Wasim Akram Waqar Younas and Aaqib Jawad now its all around the world its really change concept of fast bowling and bring some good charm for them but now Pakistan is going much behind as they are not bringing good bowlers.

Reverse swing was once a forte of Pakistan cricket team. Till mid 90s they were dominating the cricket world with this concept of bowling. Then came globalization in each 2000 and famous Pakistani bowlers were hired as balling coach, these guys taught other teams this concept. Now except Pakistan all other teams have good bowlers.

This is why you should not reveal your trade sceret.

Although all of them were great players but if you remember the team was not so strong and to qualify for the last four, they had to depend upon the other matches result also had to beat the unbeaten NZ in their own home ground. The win in the Semi final against NZ was a miracle where Inzimam-ul-Haq who was fresh into team that time, played a match winning innings.

Yes.. I researched a bit and found that it was Sarfraz Nawaz who invented reverse swing. According to some sources, he invented it along with another Pakistani fast bowler (Sikander Bakht). However, according to Shaharyar Khan, this technique was first invented by Salim Mir (who played for the Punjab Cricket Club in Lahore along with Sarfraz Nawaz). Anyway, it was Nawaz who first introduced it to international cricket (during the late 70s).

I never watch him in any format as he was retired very early but my father really love and believe this was one of best bowling spells by any bowler as he destroy Australia in MCG with his lethal weapon and change the game very quickly https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/17094/scorecard/63235/australia-vs-pakistan-1st-test-pakistan-tour-of-australia-1978-79
