ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[Insanity]

Afghanistan have nothing to lose in the third match of the series. Afghanistan have already won the series by winning two consecutive matches. The funniest thing is that Afghanistan beat the African team very badly. In the first match, Afghanistan managed to all out Africa for just 106 runs and in the second match, Afghanistan set a huge target of 315 runs. Chasing 315 runs, all their wickets fell for just 135 runs. It is definitely understood that Afghanistan has been able to make great progress in cricket. If they continue this improvement, now they will act as a threat against the big teams, not only that, but it will not be difficult for them to win. Afghanistan's bowlers have to be praised. In one match Fazalhaq Farooqi and Rashid Khan in other matches have been a big threat for the opposing teams.

Afghanistan won the series by winning the first two matches. So the third match was not important for Afghanistan. That's probably why Afghanistan didn't give full effort to win this match.

The way Afghanistan played in the first two matches was surprising. Honestly, I was not ready to watch such a one-sided match. Afghanistan dominated and won both matches. I felt the South African batsmen were very helpless especially against the Afghani bowlers. It is very clear that Afghanistan cricket is improving. Now this team is capable of challenging any big team. I am very happy with the performance of Afghanistan pl Afghanistan's bowlers in particular have performed very well in the first two matches.

It's just that Afghanistan cricket team has managed to improve themselves a bit. Afghanistan team winning the series against a strong team like South Africa is a huge achievement for Afghanistan. But in my opinion Afghanistan team needs more tough practice to compete with strong teams. So that they can consistently go further in the future. On the other hand, the disappointing performance of the South African team players was really disturbing. However, in the third match of this series, the South African team managed to save some dignity by winning.

However, in the third match of this series, the South African team managed to save some dignity by winning.

I think one of the main reasons for the development of Afghanistan cricket is that the players are hardworking, and they perform regularly in various franchise leagues. Afghanistan players are very confident now due to playing in various franchise leagues regularly. They can easily adapt to any environment and play well. Afghanistan's players did well because they were confident against South Africa as well.

South Africa team is strong. In this series, South Africa have provided opportunities to several of their young players. However, most of the batsmen in the South African squad were experienced. But even these experienced batsmen cannot do well against the Afghanistan bowlers. This is indeed the failure of South Africa.

Afghanistan and South Africa in UAE, 3 ODI Series, 2024 - 3rd ODI Afghanistan won the toss and elected to bat first. Afghanistan managed only 169 runs lost of all wickets.  South African bowlers are bolling very well. Lungi Ngidi, Nqabayomzi Peter and Andile Phehlukwayo are all taking 2 wickets for their bolling spell. South Africa easily managed their target in just 33 overs and lost of 3 wickets. Aiden Markram played a match-winning innings of 69 runs from 67 balls.

Well I liked the effort and their game play of Afghanistan team in this series otherwise side, Bangladesh team performed great in test series and now Afghanistan team beated South Africa team in ODI series and won the series with 2 wins and one lose. Yes Afghanistan team lost the 3 rd game and they gave low runs to South Africa team for chase and their batsman failed to set competitive runs target. South Africa is not a weak team and they many series past and they have good results and won many series with tough opponent. But in this series they lose 1 st and 2 nd both games and but in 3 rd they won. Bowling effort of south Africa team in 3 rd game was quiet unique and he stopped Afghanistan team. Lungi took down 2 early wicket and created high pressure to next batsman and confuse them. Andile and Peter both these bowlers also took down 2 wickets each and showed great struggle in game.

I don't think we should not blame if Afghanistan lose the last match of the series, they can't win all the matches but the important thing for them is that they have won the series against South Africa and not many cricketing experts would have thought about this. Another thing that people are saying is that South Africa won the last match by a big margin (that was by 7 wickets) but in the match before that Afghanistan won by 177 runs and in the first match they won by 6 wickets. So Afghanistan also won both matches by big margins.

Afghanistan won the series by winning the first two matches. So the third match was not important for Afghanistan. That's probably why Afghanistan didn't give full effort to win this match.

The third match was the most important for Afghanistan but unfortunately Afghanistan did not perform as well as the previous two matches.  Had Afghanistan won the third match, it would have created a record whitewash against a strong team like South Africa. In the third match, except Rahmanullah Gurbaz(89), none of the batsmen could perform well, so Afghanistan's collection did not go above 169 runs. But this consolation win was necessary for South Africa because if South Africa lost tomorrow's match, they would surely fall shy of a whitewash against a team like Afghanistan.

Afghanistan were bowled out for just 169 in the third and final ODI against South Africa. In the first two matches we saw Afghanistan win by big margins but the runs they scored in the third match made it difficult to win against South Africa and that was the case. Afghanistan's bowling attack is good but they could not keep South Africa at bay for long on this small target. South Africa secured a big win by 7 wickets in the third and final ODI match against Afghanistan. But Afghan cricketers and Afghan fans might be happy with the outcome of this series as the result has gone completely in their favour. 
Congratulations to Afghanistan for the first two matches of course.

South Africa amazing comeback after lossing back to back two matches. Afghanistan lost their third match. Some of the reasons for the match are that there were two runouts the team did not play the full 50 overs and two main players were on rest the top Spin bowler Rashid Khan and fast bowler Fazal Farooqui. Afghanistan all out in just 169 runs in 34 overs of the match. Rahmanullah Gurbaz played an out-classed inning of 89 runs when the team needed it but unfortunately missed his well-deserved century by 11 runs short. South Africa chased down the easy target in 170 runs in a loss of just three wickets in 33 overs. If the Afghanistan team plays full over and scores a target of nearly 260 runs then it will be difficult for South Africa to win it. despite Afghanistan low target they fight well in bowling but Aiden Markram palyed an outstanding inning and win match quite easily for south Africa.

South Africa lost the first two matches by a big margin against Afghanistan so it was definitely a very important thing for them to win the third match because if for any reason South Africa lost the third match against Afghanistan then they would have been completely whitewashed. 

In the third ODI match against Afghanistan, we saw that the South African bowlers managed to bowl economically as well as keep wickets falling at regular intervals due to which South Africa managed to bowl out the team for just 170 runs. 
South Africa did not have to play with too much pressure as the target was not too high and they managed to win easily against Afghanistan.

Isn't a record in itself that Afghanistan has won the series against a strong team that is South Africa 

Asking them to whitewash the opponent is to much expectation from them. Even the strongest teams would not be able to win all matches against South Africa. Also remember that South Africa beat to Afghanistan in the World Cup Semifinals, so you can understand how strong is the one day team for South Africa who reached the final of the Men's World Cup. I would pay tribute to the Afghanistan team for this performance.

India Under-19s vs Australia Under-19s

Is there anyone on this thread who is watching this competition Australia Under-19s touring of India for playing one day matches lead three match and two matches were successfully completed.

Second match of this competition was finished today among India under 19s squad against Australia under 19s squad. At the beginning of match, Australia under 19s team has begun this match first with batting inning with managing 176 low scores and set to India under 19s team. Middle order batter displayed some support to squad these Christian Howe and Addison Sheriff delivered good performance with collecting 28 and 39 scores respectively. India Under 19s squad defeated the Australia under 19s simply with no burden of high scores and also their bowling inning performance is not very strong just like India Under 19s squad. In 22 overs almost half inning playing, India Under 19s batters achieved all scores just lost one batter, Abhigyan Kundu and Sahil Parakh both build long and strong batting partnership anf supported their squad to secure victory and managed 109 and 53 scores respectively. In both innings, India Under 19s squad is stronger than Australia under 19s squad.

We are currently enjoying great cricket from Afghanistan team and they are improving themselves day by day. At present, the Afghanistan team has as good batsmen as they have good bowling. South Africa cricket team recently visited Dubai to play three ODIs against Afghanistan. The Afghanistan cricket team completely dominated the series from the start as they miserably defeated South Africa in the first two matches to clinch the series with one match to spare. Maybe through this series, the Afghanistan team has won the glory of winning the first ODI series against South Africa.

We thought that the way Afghanistan performed in the first two matches, maybe in the third match, they will beat South Africa by a big margin. That didn't happen, on the contrary, South Africa defeated Afghanistan by a huge margin of seven wickets in the third ODI. A win in the third ODI match might be a consolation for South Africa, the runners-up in the T20 World Cup.

In both innings, India Under 19s squad is stronger than Australia under 19s squad.

India's Under 19 team won this match by 7 wickets. It was a one sided easy win for them. Australia under 19 team made 189 runs and in the process they lost all their wickets. This was part of the Youth ODI Australian team visiting India to play. India U19 opting to field first was a good decision and they got quick wickets for the Australian team. KP Karthikeya was the man of the match. Looking at the Indian squad, Rudra Patel, Sahil Parakh, Hardik Raj and many others, we may be seeing some of these playing for the national team in few years time.

Yes ,you are right.  SA International cricket team is good team and their performance was not good in this series. We cannot underestimate Afghanistan team because now that is not small team and their bowlers are top of the World and their performance is at top . In today match ,Rahmanullah Gurbaz played well and he was awarded as player of the match and he made 89 runs in just 94 balls and he was also awarded as player of the series because he did well in all series and his team won this series due to great performance.Aiden Markram made important runs for his team and his team won the match easily by 7 wickets. In this match,we didn't see Afghanistan team as a team and no player did well except Gurbaz and they could win this  match also

India Under19 cricket team beat Australia by 7 wickets. India bowled out Australia for 189 runs and controlled game from start to finish. Choosing to bowl first was smart move.
India bowlers did great job and KP Karthikeya was best player of match. This win shows India has talented young players like Rudra Patel, Sahil Parakh, and Hardik Raj, who could play for India national team soon. India is doing well in developing young cricket players and this win makes the future look promising.

Today's third ODI match between Australia vs England is going to be the most interesting. As both teams are tied with one match each in the series, the team that wins today's match will be the only one to win the series. In today's match if England team plays with their best performance and can improve their game then it is definitely possible to beat Australia. Moreover, if the batsmen of the Australian team can be put under pressure by the bowling line of the England team, they will not be able to collect much runs. And if the opening batsmen survive then Australia will make a big score and if the score is big then Australia is more likely to win. All in all I think we are going to see a great and interesting game in today's match and here I think Australia team will play their best today and win.

There are several mistakes in your information. I don't know which match you are talking about. The second match between Australia U19 vs India U19 was played yesterday. And in the match Australia under 19 set a small target of 177 runs. India under 19 reached the target of victory with the loss of just one wicket. India scored 177 runs in 22 overs and easily won the match.

Australia under 19 team is not that strong. India won the first match very easily. In the second match, India batted with a target of only 177 runs. It was also a very small target. Opener Sahil Parakh was unbeaten on 109 off 75 balls. Sahil Parakh was man of the match in this match.

I think he is talking about first match 189 runs can be a mistake of typing. Because he was talking about the 7 wickets remaining win of India's team. So that was the first match in which India won the match by 7 wickets.

Well overall India performance was really good. And they are playing Very well. And I will agree the above post from these under 19 team there will be many players who will play in the national team. And this is the upcoming talent which is practicing at this time.

[As-Soon-As]

Today the third ODI match will start between England team vs Australia team, in this match England team will have to try hard as Australia team has won consecutively in the first and second ODI match of the past. Because the total ODI matches between these two teams will be five so today's match will depend on these two teams to win the series. If Australia can win today's match then surely they can win the ODI series, so England team will have to perform most aggressively.

The victory of this third ODI match is the most important for the England team, Harry Brook will be the captain of the England team in this game today. He must use a different strategy to win this match today, then England team can play a role in winning this match.  So wait until the end which team can perform well.

United States of America has chosen to bat first in the 33rd match of ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2. The USA is the strongest team of the two and has won their last 3 games. Talking about the United Arab Emirates they have won only one match and that was the last match against Namibia. A win for USA will mean that they will level up with the Netherlands points (who have 12 points). USA is in the 3rd sport with 10 points. However USA has played less matches, only 7, and this will give them an added advantage.

Also you can see that on the top of the table Canada who has 14 points has already played 11 games and by the time the USA plays 11, they would have had much higher points, provided they win their matches.

The match has started before some time between United Arab Emirates and United States of America. Five overs have already passed too. The United Arab Emirates won the toss, they decided to bowl first and their bowlers picked an early wicket of Andries Gous.

Now, Monank Patel and Smit Patel are trying to make a partnership. Smit Patek is looking good as he made 24 runs and did good start. This time, I think United Arab Emirates have to pick another wicket that causes United States of America's other batsmen may come in pressure and till the next 7 to 8 overs, the United States of America will not try to hit boundaries due to pressure.
