ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[SATWAT]

Another surprise is loading in PCB and in PCT. In the last few days, we got a lot of surprises but now the biggest is coming soon. Again, our nation came inside of the era of Babar Azam’s captaincy once again and this time here are Imad and Amir also. Again 56 is going to be captain. From the day where Mohsin Naqvi joined PCB until today, this chairman has been the best chairman ever of Pakistan in the recent days.

PCB offered Babar Azam to be the captain once again and he agreed now at this time, the Pakistan cricket team training season at Kakul is on the way and after this training season Babar Azam will become captain and maybe New Zealand will also host while him as captain.

Pakistan Cricket Board looking to bring Babar Azam back as captain

Yes, I am also hearing a lot of people talk about it right now. Also watching the news outlets going crazy about this news. I don't think it is already official. There is a discussion going on about it. But most likely it is going to happen. Very well the channels and the media outlets are trying to milk every possible view out of it. But anyway I think it is going to be really good for Pakistan cricket team going forward. That decisions that were being taken previously, I am going to be honest that I did not like those. But recently it seems like the Pakistan Cricket Board has started to make good decisions

Things like these are never been new in Pakistani sports we have history with personal likes and dislikes with political influence and many other factors are killing merit and quality of players and teams as well currently we have no sports in Pakistan which is doing good few days back we have humiliating defeat in soccer and surely things like these are going to happen with other sports as well with now cricket is also going down for the years because we have fixers back into team which are no positive sign.
They need to look into future instead of having players those are doing nothing positive and have reputation of bringing team and country down with their own agendas, we need professional peoples those can understand all and can go through with this all.

Bangladesh Women's team participated in three ODI matches in ICC Championship match and got all out before 100 runs in three ODI matches. Bangladesh bowlers performed relatively well but the batsmen performed so badly that they could not score a hundred runs in a single match. Nigar Sultana scored the highest run for Bangladesh in today's match with 16 runs and Marufa Akhtar scored the second highest run with 15 runs. Then no batsman managed to score significant runs and seven Bangladeshi batsmen were dismissed in single digits.

Well, talking about the performance of the Bangladesh team and failure in three consecutive matches shows that the team is not ready to continue and win a match. The credit for this poor performance I think goes to the coaches because there must be some mistake in their coaching strategies that their team did not even go beyond the 100 scores or maybe the team did have not the ability to face the pressure, after all, it's a women team and will be panic easily but if a team on such an international platform behave like this then I think they first need good training and then came to the field. But somehow the Australian team is also a stronger one and can not be easily beaten. Just think about how their bowlers grabe the Bangladesh batsman and did not allow them to make more runs.

I don't think it is fair to say that Bangladesh bad performance is only because of coaches. Coaches do play a part in how well a team does but skills and abilities of individual players also matter. It is not right to blame only coaches without thinking about how well players are doing and what they are thinking. We should also remember that Australian team is really strong with good bowlers. Instead of blaming anyone it would be better to look at what needs to improve and work on getting better skills and strategies. Every team has tough times and it is important to learn from mistakes but Bangladesh still not focusing on it.

Yes you are right dear it is not completely fair to blame coaches for Bangladesh Women team bad performance. Players need to play well on field and their skills and abilities matters too. It is also important to think about how strong other team is like we have seen how Australian Women team is performing in cricket world.
Instead of blaming coaches it would be better to look at what needs to get better and work on improving skills and strategies. So as you mentioned Bangladesh women team should focus to correct the mistakes which they are making when they will fight with mistakes and try to fix them so they can beat Australia Women team too.

Although the Pakistani team need a change at the top, I am not sure Babar Azam is the right option. He was given the chance once, and he failed to perform. In case he is made captain again, then it need to be ensured that his performance is not impacted. PCB is desperate, because their experiments with Shaheen Shah Afridi was a disaster, and Shan Masood also underperformed at this level. I would have rather gone for Mohammad Rizwan, but he seems to have few backers in the PCB.

What a team decides on the field depends entirely on the captain as well as the entire team depends on a coach. A head coach is hired so that the players can do well under that coach and all decisions are taken with the consent of the coach. The position of the player, which player will play and which player will be placed in the eleven, but a coach depends on it. Just as a good coach can turn a weak team into a consistent team, an incompetent coach can throw a team's performance into disarray. In the 2023 India World Cup, we have seen Bangladesh's batting positions change regularly. If a batsman who is used to playing in a position is tried to play in any other position without playing in that position, he will definitely not perform well. So the good performance of a team depends a lot on the head coach of that team.

You are right PCB will back Babar Azam again as captain of the T20 team but it is not sure if it will happen or not the decision of the Paksitan cricket board is not right they will make Muhammad Rizwan New captain of the Pakistan team. Muhammad Rizwan's performance in PSL is outstanding as captain of Multan Sultans they reached the time into final third consecutive time but unlucky they didn't win the final match. I also heard some news Muhammad Amir and Imad Wasim Took back in retirement and will play in the upcoming T20 cricket World Cup.

Australia Women have played another excellent match against Bangladesh Women as well as defeated them 3rd time continuely in 3rd ODi. And i think nobody wonder when Australia women gained Such victory cause usually they are much strongest team among Cricket teams. But Bangladesh Women performed poorly, 89 runs made by them. Australian players Ashleigh Gardner and Kim Garth both of them got 3 wickets. And their players also did great batting

Of course, Bangladesh Women's matches against Australia in the ICC Champions match have been of unequal strength and the run scores in the matches have been completely unequal. Whereas Bangladesh could not score 100 runs in any of the three matches and Bangladesh was miserably all out in each match.
In fact, Bangladesh women's team will not do well against Australia on the bouncing pitch, especially if the bowling is good, there is no chance of the batsmen doing well, because the batsmen are not used to playing bouncing balls or pace bowling, and if the ball has little pace, it becomes difficult for Bangladesh women to defend. That is why Bangladesh has been all out below 100 runs in every match.

This is a big win for the Zimbabwe team.  Their batsmen set a target of 184 runs in 20 overs.  Which is a great goal.  Their batsmen worked very hard and struggled to score very well.  But Papua New Guinea batsmen could not achieve this target and will lose the match.  Their batsmen did not play the match with interest.  If they played they could probably win.  And luck did not cooperate and could not win the match.  My congratulations to the Zimbabwe team for the win and may they continue to play like this and win matches.  The Zimbabwe bowler also put in a lot of effort and struggle and won the match.The Papua New Guinea team should improve their performance. If they do not they can not win the match.

Sir, you are right and I accept that the skills and capabilities of individual players are more matter but I think the teaching and strategies of a coach are even more important than individual player's skills how let me explain. We know that when a players come to a team he or she does not know enough to jump into the field and after coach training, he or she can express their skill and what they learn from the coach. So basically it's a coach who is responsible for the the player's performance. There are a lot of examples in the cricket world that choch decisions causing the failure of the team like South Africa lost a match in 2019 and all criticize the choch for his poor management and selection.

We can't rely on coach or anyone about the development of the players or teams this all needed a good and solid strategy which working from school level or having system like U15, U17 and U19 are also helpful because from this level things can give good confidence to players, and also we will be able to natural leaders as well which will be able to lead the teams after completing their all proper training and other things at this level.
In the past, we have national b teams and other teams which were regularly going on tours and many players were able to learn about their problems and also have good experience and technique which give them chance for fixing all and then joining national teams this all were good and fair enough but now all ended and quality and performance of players and teams are going down badly.

A coach can certainly play an important role in a team. But there's no reason to blame coach for improving the players' performance directly. No matter how good the coach is, what will the coach do if the player can't show his performance on the field? If it is done that the best coach in the world today is appointed, will that team do well in cricket? Of course not.

A coach can play a supporting role in improving a player's performance in some respects, but he can never play a leading role.

I want to share some light on what a coach can focus on.

1. Assist in human preparation.

2. Assist in strategic planning.

3. Monitoring player fitness.

4. Maintain good team relations and play a role in the game.

5. To identify the issues that should be given importance in improving the performance of the players.

A coach plays an important role in such matters.

Snip

I completely agree with your points on role of coach in team. While coach can certainly provide guidance support and strategic planning ultimately it is up to players to perform on field. Coach can assist in human preparation monitor player fitness and maintain team relations but players themselves must take responsibility for their performance. It is collaborative effort between coach and players to achieve success on field.

I agree with what you said. It is important to have good plan to help players to improve starting when they are young in school and youth teams. Making teams for players U15 U17 and U19 can give them experience confidence and leadership skills they need for future. Also having national B teams and other groups that help players improve and go on trips can help them find and fix their weaknesses improve their skills and eventually join national team. Not having these plans recently might be making players and teams not do as well. By the way it is important to invest money in these plans to ensure cricket has strong future.
