ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[kro55]

I think basically India is a team that has performed brilliantly on their home soil from start to finish. Basically their home soil is why they played so well and won every match no team could beat them. They won till the last match which was really interesting and they had confidence that they will play well from start to finish in this 2023 world cup and win the world cup. The way the Indian batsmen are playing now, we can say for sure that they will definitely win the next match against New Zealand and reach the final. Since they are playing on their home soil, they will not lose to the opposition in any way, but they will play the way they have played from the beginning to the end. Indian team is currently in the best position and they have played with such confidence that they have not lost a single match till now. However, I believe that this World Cup 2023 is going to be held in India, so the World Cup will stay in India and may not go to any other country.

India is really showing great performance and they are far ahead of every team. India is already a very good team besides they are playing at their own ground.  So India's performance has increased a lot. I think India can win the World Cup this year. But South Africa can be an obstacle for them.  But I think India will be more likely to overcome this obstacle and win this year's Cricket World Cup. India is very weak in football but they stand apart from the rest of the world in cricket and have the ability to beat every team. And that's why they play so well in most matches it doesn't matter how strong the team is against them

India won every match. Indian players have also performed very well against teams that have qualified for the semi-finals. India won by a huge margin of 243 runs even against a big team like South Africa. Every batsman in the team is in very good form. The team is not dependent on any particular batsman. Also Mohammad Siraj, Shami and Bumrah are bowling brilliantly. The spin bowlers are also in good form. When every player in the team can perform well, it is not difficult for the team to win. There is no doubt that the New Zealand team is strong. However, the team's batsmen failed to consistently perform well. India has a squad worthy of winning the World Cup this year.

India vs Netherland

India won the toss and decided to bat against the Netherlands. India showed great dominance and won every match. I have no doubt that India will win today's match very easily.

Indian team show great performance and really shocked the crowd, they were more confident from start of his last match of quarterfinals. Rohit just like his previous match give a brilliant start to his team along side with shubman gill later Kohli took charge but the way Iyer and Rahul wind up the inning is fascinating because both of them played firey innings with a  9 sixes and 21 boundaries and scored his important centuries. While the Netherlands who had played magnificent against South Africa failed against Indian Line-up, they try hard to fill the required target but it's far away from thier performance reach and that's why they lose with a big margin

We don’t have any match today and we also don’t have any match tomorrow but on 15th November, a big match is taking place which is India vs New Zealand, and you know in the previous World Cup same semi-final was held, teams are exactly the same, and first semi-final is in between New Zealand vs India, which lost by India at that time, and India lose that match with a huge embarrassment, so India team was very angry after that lose so they are want to take revenge this time.

Indian players want to take revenge. I think this time the conditions will favour the Indian team more than the New Zealand team.

Not only the New Zealand team but both Australia and South Africa are worried about India in this world cup. But luckily those two teams didn't meet India in the semi-finals. Because playing against India means accepting a certain defeat in that match. But New Zealand has nothing to do. Had they been in the 2nd and 3rd positions on the points table, the dream of playing in the grand final might have come true.

India team is the strongest team at the moment and every player is playing as the best performer now. After winning all the matches of the tournament, India will definitely not lose the dream of playing in the final. When a team has the best bowlers, the team naturally feels relaxed. All the current bowlers in India are successful. Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami, Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav who will be considered weak? All are bowling well. Any batsman will not stay long in the match and will be  defeated by them especially for this World Cup.

This time situation is very different. India is getting full advantage of playing at home. There is very rear chance of India not lifting this world cup. Both New Zealand and South Africa are the only sides left that haven't won any ODI world cup so far and it looks like both team have to wait for 4 more years. There is a possibility that Aussies might be able to beat India if they make it to finals.

I somewhat agree with you. Playing against India now means a sure defeat. However, it is not possible to make sure predictions in cricket. However, as India has performed in every match of this World Cup, it would not be wrong to say that India will win.

The match between New Zealand and India in the group stage was competitive. The match was abs exciting. And so it is not correct to say that New Zealand has no ability to win against India. India will definitely have to play well if they want to beat New Zealand in the semi-finals. However, if Indian players can maintain this consistency as they have performed in the previous matches, India is sure to qualify for the finals.

Their chances of winning the cup are 90% if you ask me primarily because of their amazing bowling attack since they can take care of the team even if their batsmen collapse like crazy which has happened in the past.

South Africa seems like their biggest rival among the competitors thanks to their phenomenal batting line-up and decent bowling lineup.

[HONDACD125]

This time situation is very different. India is getting full advantage of playing at home. There is very rear chance of India not lifting this world cup. Both New Zealand and South Africa are the only sides left that haven't won any ODI world cup so far and it looks like both team have to wait for 4 more years. There is a possibility that Aussies might be able to beat India if they make it to finals.

The place where the Indian team is playing is when Australia were at their peak and beating Australia was not easy. Australia used to beat every team easily but now that position has been taken over by India and now no team seems to be able to beat India. Both New Zealand and South Africa will have to produce exceptional performances to reach the final.

Both will be competing against the best teams in the world, but New Zealand and South Africa are also very capable, they have good bowlers and batsmen who can take the match any time . I think South Africa can beat Australia in the semi final in. However, whichever team plays India in the final is hard to beat from a performance standpoint, and only bad luck can currently beat India.

[Mahdirakib]

South Africa seems like their biggest rival among the competitors thanks to their phenomenal batting line-up and decent bowling lineup.

Australia is quite strong with their batting line up too. I'm expecting a competitive match between Australia and South Africa in the semi-final. South Africa had won easily against Australia in the group stage match. But I hope Australia will be able to beat them in the semi-final.The betting odds is in favour of Australia, and it is around 1.70× now.

Australia used to be a very good team and they gained a lot of fame in the world of cricket but now India is completely ruling the game of cricket. No team can beat them easily now. Along with India, South Africa is performing very well in this year's Cricket World Cup. the final match may see these two teams playing against each other

Both will be competing against the best teams in the world, but New Zealand and South Africa are also very capable, they have good bowlers and batsmen who can take the match any time . I think South Africa can beat Australia in the semi final in. However, whichever team plays India in the final is hard to beat from a performance standpoint, and only bad luck can currently beat India.

But whichever team qualifies for the final, I think India will be one of them. and they might play against South Africa or Australia too. New Zealand has some potential. Earlier such performance of India was not seen in cricket game but recently their game is really great. Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Rahun they are performing brilliantly in India team.

The home ground also play huge role in the league,this time India had the luck to get their chance.As like the England hosted the game and won the World Cup,this time India had 70-80 percentage of winning chance of the World Cup.The Australia was the next team had the chance for the World Cup next to India.Because the Maxwell was the key player of the Australia was get into the form now.So this may be the huge problem to the South Africa in the World Cup semi final.The South Africa also waiting for the big win of the Semi final after many loss in the semi final of the World Cup.We should wait and see the South Africa master move in the semi final against the Australia team.

you are right. India is good team but you can't say the semi final match will be very easy for India . New Zealand team  fielding is top class whole the World  and they save 20-25 runs by their good fielding and their batting side is also good and they have capacity to set a 300+ score on board and they also have  capability to chase a big score like 300+ .In past World Cups , New Zealand team played excellent against India.Now, New Zealand team is free of pressure and all pressure is on the team of India because they won all matches and they have a fear of lose . In my opinion , in 15 November New Zealand will win and it will qualify for final.

Even in World cup matches history New Zealand having good advantage against India but in India they never won against home side with two matches in 1987 both won by India and now in 2023 again won by India but in other seven matches we have five wins for the New Zealand and one for the India with one is abandoned mean here India is clearly having good advantage for and having spot into last two, but their recent history is also not with them with in knock out matches they were mostly having collapses which is matter of the worry for the home fans.

In 1987, they lost semifinal against England and then in 1996 against Sri Lanka but win in 2011 is also with them with these facts and figures most chances they will be over through this Kiwi challenge and wait for the next opponent which could be for me Australia because their comeback after losing two early matches is impressive, and they are surely team to watch in big games as well but still South Africa is also doing good in this event.

That true but India won every match and they great effort to won the semi final and Finnal. This ICC world cup of 2023 the India batsman played very well and defeated the greatest team. The batsman and bowler of India team play very well in every matches.If India batsmen and bowlers work hard, they can win this years World Cup.And if they work hard a team like England and a team like New Zealand cant spoil anything.Now India must work hard and win this years World Cup.

In my opinion , in 15 November New Zealand will win and it will qualify for final.

The 2019 semin final is completely different scenario compared to now and for the record the match dragged to second day so the playing condition changed which is the reason why India can't able to make it but no Indian's can forget that run out.

But now the story is different and Indian bowling unit is more stronger than ever but we can't rule of Kiwis too so it may be a good contest but the clear favorites are India to win that match.

[TakeItEasy]

That true but India won every match and they great effort to won the semi final and Finnal. This ICC world cup of 2023 the India batsman played very well and defeated the greatest team. The batsman and bowler of India team play very well in every matches.If India batsmen and bowlers work hard, they can win this years World Cup.And if they work hard a team like England and a team like New Zealand cant spoil anything.Now India must work hard and win this years World Cup.

India has already won 2 World Cups and the New Zealand has won 1 Title, comparing the 4 teams I think India is the most dangerous Team among all of these now, as we can see its bowling and batting side so crucial along all the matches they played recently. I don't think they played a better World Cup than this, so the other teams are also good enough to give huge target like South Africa, New Zealand but Indian Team has something huge to do in the coming match.

Although we can also expect some good runs from the Team South Africa they can still have a chance to Qualify for the Final and I have seen them in their almost matches they have a hard luck at the end. But I hope they can make it better this time if the luck of South African Team is with them. So, we would like to enjoy the matches BTW if any team hits sixes.

[Haunebu]

Australia is quite strong with their batting line up too. I'm expecting a competitive match between Australia and South Africa in the semi-final. South Africa had won easily against Australia in the group stage match. But I hope Australia will be able to beat them in the semi-final.The betting odds is in favour of Australia, and it is around 1.70× now.

Yeah. Australia's batting line-up is great too and they excel in critical matches, but they have been inconsistent throughout this tournament so far while South Africa have been a bit more consistent than them in all areas.

Am expecting a proper contest between both these teams and I truly hope South Africa doesn't choke once again.

After the first 2 defeat, Australia bounce back well tho and everyone chipped in, including top order, middle order and bowlers as well so they are on the right track despite their recent meltdown against Afghanistan.

So far, SA is dominating when batting first but at the same time they look completely different outfit when chasing the target so it'll be an interesting contest if they win the toss.

[lixer]

India won every match. Indian players have also performed very well against teams that have qualified for the semi-finals. India won by a huge margin of 243 runs even against a big team like South Africa. Every batsman in the team is in very good form. The team is not dependent on any particular batsman.

There is no doubt that the New Zealand team is strong. However, the team's batsmen failed to consistently perform well. India has a squad worthy of winning the World Cup this year.

In these home conditions they are clearly set for the having third world cup into their pocket specially their wins against Australia and South Africa give them good advantage their all top order batsmen giving their best and having nothing to worry with bowlers combination is also deadly Mohammad Siraj and Jaspirat Bumrah and after these two Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja not allowing any team to stand against them.

Now after having 9 wins out of the 9 matches we can expect another two wins for them as well in big matches with Australian challenge is also surely look like not bad Maxwell done one of the best batting in this event and having first double century as well and after this we have another good inning from the Mitchel Marsh which play impressive knock of 175 against Bangladesh done good job on right time hopefully we will have good competition of the titans in these last few matches.

[TakeItEasy]

There will be a Semi- Final match played between India and New Zealand, Rohit Sharma, Shreyas Iyer Kl Rahul are in form now, and if we think their other batters who have also strong enough to provide good shots all over the boundaries, a benefit for the Indian Team is that they have their home ground in which they plays a good cricket as compared to other grounds.

Also New Zealand cricket Team is giving a tough time, as they practices their players in the practice session today. Kane Williamson is the key player for the team of New Zealand and we know if he scores big the New Zealand can chase even a big total in the matches we have seen. So, he have to play some big shots and a knock will be need in  order to win the match.

Obviously they win 9 matches and they good performance in these matches. That's why next two matches they always won. Maxwell the batsman of Australia is not less against India team. Mitchel marsh defeated the Bangladesh and they proof to Australia for good batsman.It seems to see them between these matches is very tough for those team.If Australia batsmen Maxwell and MitchelMarch and other batsmen play with struggle and effort  they can reach the final.

[GbitG]

Australia is quite strong with their batting line up too. I'm expecting a competitive match between Australia and South Africa in the semi-final. South Africa had won easily against Australia in the group stage match. But I hope Australia will be able to beat them in the semi-final.The betting odds is in favour of Australia, and it is around 1.70× now.

I think South African team will give them tough time but at the end winner will be Australian because they made for surviving in such tough last stages of world cup, when ever they qualify for a final they won, so you can get idea from there how well their body language and confidence are high stage where mostly team chocked and unable to Handel pressure situation especially we have seen Asian team for such attitude. Anyway, it will be really surprising for me if South Africa beat them and move to the final, but I think it will somehow depend on pitch conditions and toss too. One thing more which I should add that Australian star bowler M.starc will take his retirement right after world cup from ODI format.
