231 runs is a very low score in ODI cricket against the mighty Australia who recently won the ODI World Cup. A strong Australia team has already scored 83 runs for a wicket in 11.2 overs against the West Indies, meaning they need just 149 runs to win this match. Maybe very soon the Australian team will win this match and go one-nil in the ODI series.

Yes, a target of 232 runs in the ODI format is not enough to win against a strong team like Australia. Today, West Indies' batting line could not do well as a result of which they were all out before the allotted overs. Apart from Roston Chase and Keacy Carty, no other batsman could do better. The bowlers have nothing to do with such a small target.

Anyway, with a target of 132 runs, Australia came down to bat and so far collected 138 runs by taking 2 wickets in 22 overs. Josh Inglis batted in T20 style, getting out for 65 off 43 balls. Australia need just 94 runs to win. They have enough wickets, I think they will win before 35 overs.

At the moment, the Australian team has collected 174 runs in 28 overs with the loss of 2 wickets. Australia now need only 58 runs to win against West Indies. As West Indies could not give Australia much of a target in this first ODI today, Australia is going to meet their target very easily. I am also thinking the same as you, Australia may end today's match in 35 overs.

It looks like Australia will win today without much resistance from the Windiese. They bowled well to restrict the WI batter form getting a good total on the scoreboard and now they are batting well. The run rate is sky rocketing as runs are coming easily for the Australians. I don't see much success for WI bowlers as all are getting hammered. Only one wicket gone and they are already at the half way mark, another Australian dominated cricket match.

Australia vs West Indies
The target that was given by the West Indies was definitely not big enough. I'm giving a team like Australia a target of 232 is never going to be enough when you do not have a very explosive bowling lineup. And right now Australia is absolutely finding it easy to chase the target. Right now Australia needs 29 from 100 balls. For a team like Australia that is really easy. And Australia also has eight wickets in hand. So there is no way Australia is losing.

After winning toss a good decision to bowl first helps Australia with they took few early wickets which helps them to bring under pressure West Indies which is having problems in batting after 4 early wickets I was not expecting we will have this figure but both batsmen done good job and having good partnership which bring them to this total which is still not ideal to defend on this pitch.

Australian top order in good touch as all done half centuries during this chase and have no problem to win this match without any problem, currently Australia needs only 11 runs with 15 overs left and both Green and Smith doing regular job to keep strike and hit all around for the another win.

[Essential10]

The West Indies team is not performing well in comparison, their performance needs to be longer. Only the West Indies team scored 231 runs but all wickets fell. The Australian team is currently performing very well these seasons and ODIs are usually a game of survival for long periods of wicket keeping. Now Australia team batting performance is very good as they entered the field as opening batsman also performed very well. Now Green and Steven Smith are in the field as a partnership, if these two experienced batsmen can finally perform, then they can surely fulfill the target of 231 runs. Australia need only 65 more runs.

The toss was very important in today's match so Australia won the toss and decided to bowl. Australia managed to capitalize on the early bowling spell, especially as West Indies lost four wickets for 59 runs. Keacy Carty and Roston Chase made a partnership of 110 runs for the fifth wicket. Looking at the fifth wicket I thought the run would cross 250+. Roston Chase was dismissed for 59 and Keacy Carty was dismissed for 88 in the next wicket. Xavier Bartlett bowled brilliantly for Australia with a maiden over taking four wickets for just 17 runs in 9 overs. 231 run was not a fighting score for West Indies against Australia. Although Australia lost Travis Head in the first over to bat, Australia did not come under any pressure. Josh Inglis opened the batting in T20 style, scoring 65 off 43 balls. Green and Smith put on an unbeaten 149 for the third wicket and won by a huge margin of 8 wickets with 69 balls in hand.

[redsun114]

We are currently having three matches in progress in ODI World Cup U19 while India is doing good job and have 180 runs after 34 over with the lost of 3 wickets most chances they will again touch 300+ which could be huge for the Nepal Uday Saharan and Sachin Dhas both playing good and have fifties with 120 runs partnership.

Second Match where Australia is having some trouble while they are playing against West Indies with 130 runs lost of 5 wickets and things are looking interested because West Indies can fight back for third win and having chances for the last four.

In Third match South Africa is also having some problems while they are facing Sri Lanka with 155 for 6 they need some more runs if they want to have better chance for the last four with things are tense while West Indies is performing better right now.

India U19 vs Nepal U19

In the 33rd match of the 2024 U19 World Cup, the mighty India U19 team will face off against the Nepal U19 team.

Tackling such a small team like Nepal will not be a big problem for team India who already continued his winning streak from start of the tournament. Currently they are in good touch, no doubt thier top order lose quick his important wickets without adding any significant contribution but now things are in thier control and Thier captain a long with Thier middle order batter managing to build more than 100+ partnership now which will put thier team on track toward a big target like above 250 which will be fair target to defend as they have quality bowler too.
Anyway I will be more excited if India and paksitan continue his winning streak and kick out all rest of the team from tournament and we have a grand rivalry final again after long them and believe me this match will be the most viewed match of entire tournament

You are right friend, 231 scores defeating target was not very big target when facing squad is Australia squad and Australia is not a weak squad but in top ranking squad in Cricket world. The outcome of this match was Australia squad defeated West Indies squad very badly and emerged victory by 69 deliveries remaining and also 8 batters. In this first ODI match West Indies against Australia squad, West Indies squad was stated this match first batting inning by calling of Australia squad. Beginning of West Indies squad batting inning, both starter batter Justin Greaves and Alick Athanaze did not displayed their actual batting skills both got out at low scores. Next batter displayed very good performance Keacy Carty collected 88 scores off 108 deliveries. Kavem Hodge also collected 59 scores off 67 deliveries which displayed awesome performance. But this defeating target was not big for Australia squad and these three batters Steven Smith, Cameron Green and Josh Inglis were enough for 231 scores defeating target. Congrats Australia squad for 1st win in this ODI match.

We are currently having three matches in progress in ODI World Cup U19 while India is doing good job and have 180 runs after 34 over with the lost of 3 wickets most chances they will again touch 300+ which could be huge for the Nepal Uday Saharan and Sachin Dhas both playing good and have fifties with 120 runs partnership.

I feel that out of the three matches today, apart from the India and Nepal matches, the remaining two matches will be fiercely fought. India will still bat 8 overs, their score is 236/3 over 42.3. Uday Saharan and Sachin Dhas continue to bat to build a partnership of 174 runs. Hopefully, if these 4th wickets partnership at theirs last for a long time, they will easily score 300+ runs. And even if India scores 300+ or ​​less in this match, I think India will win, besides, India's big line is very strong.

Second Match where Australia is having some trouble while they are playing against West Indies with 130 runs lost of 5 wickets and things are looking interested because West Indies can fight back for third win and having chances for the last four.

Australia lost 5 wickets for 87 runs and is under a lot of pressure. Sam Konstas and Raf MacMillan try to put the team score for the sixth wicket. Australia score 158/5 over 41. Australia will need to bat well in the last nine overs otherwise  West Indies' run chase will be very easy.

In Third match South Africa is also having some problems while they are facing Sri Lanka with 155 for 6 they need some more runs if they want to have better chance for the last four with things are tense while West Indies is performing better right now.

Africa  Batsmen are under a lot of pressure as they get out frequently in Africa's middle order. Anyway South Africa score 182/6 over 42. If Africa want to fight against Sri Lanka, they have to get close to 250 runs.

This 231 was made possible because of 88 runs inning from Keacy Carty and 59 runs from Roston Chase. See scorecard of West Indies and its totally dominated by Australian bowling. Australians have easily chased target by losing just 2 wickets. There is not much WIndies bowlers can do while they are defending a low target of 232. Aussies were well prepared today and didn't took WIndies bowling for granted as they did in last test.

The total of 231 wasn't substantial, considering the pitch was excellent for batting. Debutant Xavier Bartlett played a key role with figures of 4/17, restricting the visitors. Australia successfully chased down 232 runs in less than 39 overs against West Indies, showcasing a dominant performance by the World Champions. The third-wicket partnership between Cameron and Steven Smith played a crucial role in Australia's victory in the first ODI.

The West Indies cricket team did not only bowl badly but the batting side was also unpredictable. I think the collapse of the two openers of the West Indies cricket team broke the foundation of the batting of the West Indies cricket team. Due to which the players of the West Indies cricket team had some fear. If the batting of the two opening batsmen of the West Indies cricket team could have strengthened. Then even weak batsmen would get motivation for good batting. However, today's first match defeat against Australia, I am very disappointed. I hope the West Indies cricket team can return to their form in the next match

West Indies team to bat first. Losing two wickets for six runs, West Indies batsman was under a lot of pressure. Keacy Carty worked hard enough to take the team forward from there. But he could not make a good partnership with him and if any batsman could have made a good partnership with him, maybe the West Indies team would have given a bigger target to Australia. Keacy Carty did a great batting with 108 balls 88 Run out. In today's match West Indies team's batting was definitely weak. West Indies team's batsmen should have batted better. To win the match against Australia, Australia must give a big target otherwise they will never win the match against Australia. Australia won by 8 wickets. Congratulations to the Australian team.

It was a long game delayed the 2nd inning by poor weather, Nepal started fine and had a good runrate at the end of 11th over but their downfall started with the first wicket. None of the batsmen made any good effort except for the captain Dev Khanal. There was nothing impressing was presented by the Nepali team except for one of the longest last wicket partnership that led to Nepal batting the whole of 50 overs and not being all out. Nepali team can return home still satisfied, India has been the most impressive team of the whole tournament till date and it was not among the worst defeat from India. Pakistan vs Bangladesh would be one of the deceive match tomorrow.

[tbterryboy]

-snip-

We have nothing special from these matches just Australia vs West Indies stopped due to rain and both teams having one point each which is not going to have problem for any team because Australia is going to stay at the top with South Africa after thrashing win now having second spot and West Indies will keep at the third spot. India done good job and now as expected Nepal is having just formality and huge defeat is waiting for them two centuries by Indian batsmen and now Saumy Pandey is increasing his tally of wickets

Now tomorrow we will have few more games but mostly as usual could be one-sided with just match can create some entertainment which is going to play between Pakistan vs Bangladesh even this is also not going to have any impact on league table.

Congrats Australia squad for 1st win in this ODI match.

Of course, Australia was not going to face any problems winning this match. Australia was able to win the match by 8 wickets and also had 69 balls in hand. This type of target is easy for Australia to chase. Now West Indies will have to win the next match if they want to stay alive in this series. But let alone winning this series, if West Indies can somehow win one match it is going to be an achievement for them in my opinion.

I am curious that why Shamar Joseph is not included in today's ODI. Is he injured or he was not part of ODI squad? No problem faced by Australians today in winning the game. First they bowled out West Indies team for 232 run and they chased it without any hassle. Australians were playing without Cummins but didn't feel his absence as debutant Xavier Colin Bartlett bowled brilliantly and took 4 wickets. There are two more games still to be played after that and West Indies need to improve there performance in upcoming matches to avoid whitewash.

[JunkieMiner]

Australia Team was too good during the First ODI between Australia and West Indies Team. Australia won the first match as they had already reached their target of 232 in just 39tth over and this was their positive victory for starting from the 1st ODI with a win. Mostly when a series between the team starts their is quite a huge impacts of the first ODI on all of the teams. When some team win the first match then their impact towards the other games will also be good.
