ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

After the match between South Africa and New Zealand, the World Cup is alive again. Now, other teams like Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Afghanistan have the chance to be in the semi-finals if they play good cricket from here and win all of their matches. This defeat impacted NZ's net run rate big time, and now they have to win all of their matches to qualify, and their next match is against unpredictable Pakistan.
If SL wins today's match against India -although the chances of this happening are negligible- they will be in the race for the 4th spot in the semi-finals. Finger crosses to an amazing end to this World Cup group stage.

Well.. one of the disadvantages with having 10-team group is that after a few matches we will get to know who is going to qualify for the semi-finals. Now it is certain that India and South Africa will be in the semi-finals. There is some doubt regarding Australia, but they should be able to qualify as well. And then it is going to be a direct fight between New Zealand and Pakistan for the remaining slot. All the other teams are out of reckoning, with the exception of Afghanistan. That means that 4 out of 10 teams have no chance of qualifying for the semis.

Quite disgraceful performance from the Kiwis yesterday. The moment South Africa reached more than 350, I knew that there was no chance for a New Zealand win. But then, the Kiwi batsmen didn't even put up a fight. They surrendered without any resistance. Only Glenn Phillips was able to score runs freely and take on the South African bowlers. Keshav Maharaj, the only Protean bowler who looked out of form till now picked up 4 wickets yesterday. Marco Jansen and Gerald Coetzee were also exceptional. Now New Zealand faces a real danger of not qualifying for the semi-finals.

last night match New Zealand put on their weakest and South Africa show of this World Cup as they carry on being affected by injuries. South Africa have broken the record for the most sixes and the most hundreds by any team in a single World Cup. my prediction for today match played between india and Srilanka. India is favourite to win this match because they didn't lose any match in thid world cup win 6 of 6 match in this world cup and standing on second of points table with 12 points after South Africa. This win against Srilanka will conferm the semi-finals spot for India.

After lost against India they are trying to regroup themselves but sadly nothing working positive with match against Australia were good but suddenly against South Africa they fall down badly which bring their fourth spot in danger as well now things are fascinating with who is going for the fourth spot even still I am feeling New Zealand is favorite, but now anything can happen while Pakistan is also going to give their best even we have new about internal conflict but still things are looking positive.
Now England is down and out with this most chances their hopes for the Champions League are also going to be ended because they have no chance for the top seven spots as well with next matches against Australia and Pakistan could be not easy for them to have win and take seventh spot most chances they could be ended at eight spots with Bangladesh and Netherlands going to down.

We never imagined that the New Zealand team would lose so badly against South Africa. Because even though New Zealand lost the last two matches, they lost by a very narrow margin. In the match against Australia vs New Zealand we saw a total of over 760 runs. And so everyone expected to enjoy a competitive match. But New Zealand lost the match by a huge margin of 190 runs.

Sri Lanka won the toss and took the fielding decision against India. It is very difficult to bat well in the second innings on this pitch, but still the Sri Lankan captain decided to field. But the Sri Lankan bowlers are bowling very well. Sri Lanka managed to take the wicket of Rohit in the first over.

[Bureau]

Srilanka won the toss and chose to bowl first, they started well by taking the wicket of Rohit Sharma. Then two catches were dropped one for Shubhman Gill and the next one for Virat Kohli. If they had taken these two wickets then India would have been in big trouble. For now, both batters are hitting the balls for boundaries with a run rate of 5.73. With the current run rate the projected target is more than 300 runs and if the Indian batter gets those runs then the Srilnakan team would be in trouble. Both opening bowlers bowled really well but now the bowlers are bowling a lot of lose balls, not looking great for Srilanka now.

Partnership of Shubman Gill  and Virat Kohli is going well and they have 123 runs partnership. If these two batsman will not leave the pitch so India can go above 350 runs and this target will be a good target for SriLankan team and difficult to chase. Because India's bowling line also good you can see the previous match of India with England.

[Bitcoin_people]

In the India vs Sri Lanka match, Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to field, and India batted. The batsmen of the Indian team are doing a great batting performance in today's match. If there was some pressure at the beginning of the match, then again Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill eased the pressure. The two have made a great pair, of course the target they are playing in I think they will both score centuries very soon. If Sri Lanka can't take wickets then surely they can lose to India by a huge margin. And right now India team has collected 140 runs in 24 overs and lost 1 wicket. In the end if they can survive I think they can score 350 runs.

A strong start for India in Mumbai despite losing captain Rohit Sharma in the first over. India are at 164/1 in 28th Overs. Virat kholi make his fifty and Shubman Gill also scored impressive knock playing at 75*. Sixth 50 plus score in last eight ODI matches for Virat Kohli. Virat kholi is on fire scored 83 Not out and very close to makehis 49th Odi hundred. Chameera drops Kohli Tough chance for a bowler, but the big man survives.i think Giving Kohli second chance is worst crime in cricket

[Sithara007]

Nothing surprising in the India vs Sri Lanka match so far. India have already reached 164/1 after 27 overs and looks like they may end up with a massive total in the vicinity of 350 to 380. Virat Kohli looks quite confident out there, and he may get his 49th ODI hundred today. Shubman Gill also looks comfortable, but his strike rate is a bit low till now. Sri Lanka actually got a good start to this game, when they got Rohit Sharma out in the very first over. But ever since, the match has been under complete domination of the Indian batsmen.

Agreed after Asian Cup final they are completely down and out of the game against India right now I have no words how to describe their pathetic batting just early 4 overs with 3 runs on board and their 4 top order batsmen gone really can't believe this is Sri Lankan national team here in this mega World Cup event.

Mohammad Siraj is nightmare for them, they are not able to play him I was expecting some reasonable performance but at this current rate look like another thrashing lost is waiting for them.

Sri Lankan 4 top batsmen out with just one have 1 run in front of his name other 3 out on duck what a shameful batting.

Partnership of Shubman Gill  and Virat Kohli is going well and they have 123 runs partnership. If these two batsman will not leave the pitch so India can go above 350 runs and this target will be a good target for SriLankan team and difficult to chase. Because India's bowling line also good you can see the previous match of India with England.

Rohit Sharma opened the toss in the match but Rohit Sharma was not lucky enough to win the toss.The Sri Lankan captain wanted India to bat.Indian batsmen have scored 357 runs in 50 overs and 8 outs. Indian batsmen have scored so many runs that it has become very difficult for Sri Lanka to complete this target.India has given this target to Sri Lanka in abudant style.Based on the calculation that Sri Lanka are batting, it seems that they will lose the match. India lost four wickets in four overs of Sri Lanka and scored seven run.

[synchronym]

The Sri Lankan batsmen are disoriented after coming down to bat against the target of 357 runs given by India. Sri Lanka's first sari batsmen went back to the dressing room helpless against the Indian bowlers. Sri Lanka's current score is seven runs for 4 wickets with 4 overs to play. Sri Lanka's current state of play looks like they will be all out within 100 runs. India bowler Mohammad Siraj is bowling brilliantly. 2023 World Cup The way India is playing this game, it seems that they will play the World Cup final. Both India's batting and bowling are very strong.

India ended up collecting 357 runs for the loss of 8 wickets. Shreyas Iyer and Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill batted very well. Unfortunately no batsman scored a century Virat Kohli was dismissed for 88 runs Shubman Gill was dismissed for 92 runs Shreyas Iyer was dismissed for 82 balls. India's wicket fell at the start Rohit Sharma got out in the first over Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill both gave great performances to help the team score a lot of runs. Batting on a target of 358 runs, Sri Lanka lost 4 wickets in 6 overs. It seems that Sri Lanka can get all out before 30 overs. Mohammed Siraj bowled brilliantly and took 3 wickets in 3 overs. India will win today by a huge margin.

I am seeing lot of swings in the indian bowling line up which is very hard to pick. Srilanka batsmens completely failed to understand the ball and this why they are losing wickets. Siraj which are usually not considered a wicket taking bowlers completely destroyed the SL batting and all dangers man backs to pavilion. Srilanka couldn't win this match. They will now try to build the partnership to increase score. spin is also yet to be bowled. Kuldeep Yadav is ready to please the crowd. This tournament proved so bad for Srilanka team and they should work on their performance.

What the hell is going on with SriLanka team. They lost 4 wickets. By the way excellent bowling by Muhammed Siraj. He got 3 wickets. I don't think so the SriLanka will go above 50 runs. India confirmed its spot for Semifinal and the performance of India is showing that India will win the world cup. I know its too early to predict but the performance of India is showing everything.

What a massive wickets by Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah. The Asia Cup final vibes are coming from Mohammed Siraj, as he took wickets in the final of the Asia Cup and the teams are also the same so history can repeat by itself.

This match must be won by Sri Lanka because this is the last chance to qualify in the Semi-Final otherwise, the hopes for winning the trophy will be finished for Sri Lanka. Almost 10 overs were passed and they couldn’t touch thirty scores and the target that India gave was also very high (over 350+ runs ) so you can say that Sri Lanka is out of the tournament.

[3kpk3]

Lmao. I knew 358 was way too high for the Lankans considering the fact that India has the best bowling attack among all teams in this tournament. For some reason, Siraj performs extremely well against the Lankans.

16/6 is absolutely insane and embarrassing. India will go back to the top of the table in style with a huge NRR boost.

Indian squad has finished their batting inning just a little while ago. Opening batters Rohit Sharma performance in today match was really worst he just made 2 score but performance of next batters like Virat Kohli, second opener batsman Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer was incredible all these batters made 262 scores out of 356 defending target score. At present, Sri Lanka squad batting inning has begun and the are currently batting on the crease. I feel that indian squad today will break record of winning match by huge margin because Sri Lanka squad made 21 score in 11 overs and also their squad 6 batters right now.

Now 6 wickets are down with only 14 runs on the board. This is high class fast bowling by the Indian team. The SriLankan batsmen have no chance whatsoever in this match.  When we look at the score card, we only see Zero and a couple of 1 runs. No batsman is able to score runs against this bowling attack. Only Angelo Mathews has been able to enter in double figures and is not out at 10 runs.

Mohammed Siraj took three wickets, Mohammed Shami took two wickets and Jasprit Bumrah took a single wicket.  

Well, no one expected this poor performance by the Sri Lankan batsmen. Yeah, losing is part of the game but what is this, 14/6 ? A pathetic performance by the Sri Lankan batsmen.

There is nothing new from the Indian batting side with all batsmen in good touch, and they are giving their best in this ICC World Cup against their home crowd, but we have one of the most disgraceful performance form the former world champions like England which is currently at the 10th spot and in this match Sri Lanka is completely surrendered by Mohammad Siraj and Jaspirat Bumrah.

For me this is one of the best bowling spell from any team in this event after ten overs we have just one boundary and 14 runs and 6 batsmen gone without doing anything positive for their team we already have 55 dot balls which is also surprising for me because this was not expecting in this game at Wankhede, which is supposed to be batsmen heaven.

After Mohammad Siraj now we have Mohammad Shami who strike in his first over as he is already having impressive world cup with ball.
