ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[Smack That Ace]

In ODI Sanju's fans might be correct and i also like to see him getting big rope but only in ODI not T-20, may be his time will come again after T-20 2022 WC.
In t-20 he had fair amount of opportunities and he failed to capitalize on that, 20-ish average with 135 SR is not going to help his case anyway. If he had average of 30+ with the same SR then management could have think about him fitting into top 5 but for top5 slots competition is tough and you can't survive in such setup with those numbers. 

As a player, Sanju Samson is one of the big names in the IPL. But I don't like his attitude. A few months ago, he had an altercation with the Kerala Cricket Association (KCA) officials regarding team selection for domestic matches. And in this season of the IPL, he refused to give chances to Karun Nair, and chose instead to stick with Riyan Parag (who was the most useless IPL player in the entire season). He is quite young and has a lot of potential, but sometimes keeping a low profile helps to grow at international level.

Ha! that's a first instance i'm hearing attitude complain about him and didn't knew about these incidents. I do consider him as down to earth guy on-off the field.
One could strongly argue about him being bias against some players but at the same time Captain should've say when selecting team for obvious reasons.

As a human everyone has issues. And when it comes to certain players those issues are inexplicable. Sanju Samson is obviously a human and to err is human. But these types of mistakes are unacceptable at this level. I have no idea why he didn’t give any chance to Karun Nair. Instead, he gave Riyan Parag chances after chances when it was evident that he was going to fail. Those types of mistakes can obviously be very detrimental to the team. In fact, it is not only him that seems to love to be in the spotlight, it seems like Indian players, in general, like to be in the spotlight one way or another. Keeping a low profile is not something they aspire to do.

Looking for the decider match between West Indies and New Zealand. In the second game New Zealand made the easy win and managed to tie the series 1-1. In that match Finn Allen made a tremendous performance scoring 96 runs while the entire team struggled to perform. The target looked chaseable, but the opening order of West Indies weren't good to carry the responsibility. If they play in such a way this match too gonna be loss for them. A win in this match is much important for West Indies, because winning the series adds 10 World Cup Super League points.

Today is the last match between West Indies vs New Zealand for this ODI series. Where both have won one match. Today will be a series deciding match. I'd say both teams are perfect. 50-50 chance of getting the series for both of them. Winning this series will be a lot of motivation on behalf of west indies. But New Zealand is a reliable team that is not easy to beat.

Pakistan players are not able to play much ball game today.  Pakistan lost by 6 wickets.  Now let's see what the rest of the players can do for their team today.  I don't think Pakistan can win this match today.  That's because the ball players could not run today.  better players are all out.  Now Pakistan can win today if the rest of the players get runs.  Otherwise, he will not be able to do anything in this match.

I didn't expect a strong team like Pakistan to put pressure on a weak team like Netherlands. Apart from Babar Azam, the only batsman of the team, 91 runs, all the other members did not make much progress.However, Pakistan's bowling line is very strong, so the match will go in Pakistan's favor even with a small capital.

Pakistan VS Netherland

Pakistan as usual is not a team to rely on as they as a team depend on a few players to perform and win for them. Amazingly this team only scored 206 runs in the last ODI against Netherland. A T20 match between big teams will have a chasing score of more than 200 runs. Pakistan A team is struggling to play against a team ranked 15th in the ODI format.

Netherland has already lost 4 wickets and has already scored 114 runs. They still have a lot of overs in their hands but they lack the experience to play in such a situation. But, even if they lose this match I am sure they will lose a lot of experience.
I still hope Pakistan does not lose this match.

[CryptoBuds]

Pakistan set a target of just 207 runs today. It is very difficult to win such a low-run target. Apart from Babar Azam, no other player on the team could play well. Babar Azam was out after collecting 91 runs off 125 balls.
However, there is no consistency in the performances of the Netherlands players. Opener VIkramajit returned to the dressing room after collecting 50 runs. Tom Cooper remains unbeaten with 36 runs. Besides, no other top-order batsman could play well. The Netherlands lost the fifth wicket for 116 runs.

What if we see the upset today and Netherlands make win from this match? They need 91 runs from 104 balls which is very much under the control. The only disadvantage they have is that they lost 5 wickets already. Copper is playing at 36 and a lot depends on him if the Netherlands wants to make a match out of this. The Netherlands have lost two close matches and hopefully, they can turn the tables this time around.

That will be a big upset. Also, the current odds are favoring the netherlands at the moment. No one would have thought that netherlands will show such a stunning performance. Pakistan needs quick wickets here else netherlands will make history today.

Tom Cooper and Nidamanuru have been playing very well in the fifth wicket partnership. They have already collected about 40 runs from this partnership. Now Netherlands needs 52 runs from 48 balls. If the Netherlands doesn't lose wickets, they look set to collect 52 runs off 48 balls. It will be a shame for Pakistan to lose against a team like Netherlands.

The match is slowly tilting in the favor of Netherlands. The close they come to the target, the more chances they will win this match. All they have to do is not to lose the wickets and the runs will come by automatically. Although the run rate is 6 runs per over, the occasional boundaries will further reduce this rate. Look like this match will go right down to the wire and its hard to predict the match winner at this point.

The Netherlands needs 30 runs from 27 balls to win. While Nidamanuru returns to the fold with 24 runs, Tom Cooper is still at the crease with 62 runs. If Tom Cooper stays at the crease, he looks set to give the Netherlands a win today. But Pakistani bowlers are very experienced. Probably Pakistan will not be defeated in this match.

It was really Promising match played between Netherlands and Pakistan. Netherlands lost the match by 9 runs. They might have won the match if they add some more run. Pakistan won the series but the game was under Ireland favor. At the last segment they lost wicket and as well as the series despite having 1.2 overs.

It was a disappointing match for the fans as it was a low scoring match and when Pakistan folded for a low score of 206 runs, i thought Netherland will be able to chase the score as it is a well below par score in ODI when teams are scoring above 200 runs in T20. But Pakistan had the bowling strength to restrict teams like Netherland even with a sub par score was incredible. I wonder what the odds were when Netherland started to bat.

Netherland score 197 in 49.2 overs . they need more 9 runs in 4 balls . Now the Netherlands is very difficult to win  . Today's match between Netherlands and Pakistan was a nail-biter.  I enjoyed watching today's game . Today's game impressed me a lot. Let's see Finally who will win.

Finally Pakistan won with Netherlands . It was a very good match.  Although I was a supporter of the Netherlands.  But the Netherlands could not win this time . I wanted to bet for Netherlands in offline with my friend but for some reason I didn't. If I had bet then I would have lost my money. thanks god

A good fight from the Netherlands in this third and final ODI of this series where they were chasing a target of 207 in absence of all quality bowlers from Pakistan but till they fail and all out in 49.2 overs with just 9 runs short of target again Babar is survivor for Pakistan with bat his third fifty of this series give good support after this inning Mohammad Wasim and Naseem Shah both done good job and restrict Netherlands batting even once they were near to win, but sadly experience counts in Pakistan favor, and they were able to defend this small target with their new young guns.

Cooper also done third fifty for home team, but this was not enough for having win in this match here now Pakistan needs to work on their batting because it has terrible issues and need to fix as soon as possible.

It was close match and in the end Pakistan won the match by just 9 runs. Only babar azam was able to score 91 runs and it was because of his knock that Pakistan won todays game otherwise Netherlands have done a good job. Both teams were not able to play 50 overs. But it will boost the confidence level of Netherlands team.

If the Netherlands had the opportunity to play full of 50 overs, their chances of winning would have increased. But like Pakistan they also were not able to play 50 overs.  Pakistan though played 2 balls more than them. However, Pakistan vs Netherlands was a very good match today.  Both teams lost/win by just a few runs.

[Vaskiy]

Through this ODI series Netherlands have proven their ability. Every match have turned to be a learning and the improvement can be experienced over each match. In the first match Pakistan set a target of 314 runs and Netherlands was able to reach 298 runs which is big. In the second match it was an easy win for Pakistan.

In today's match it was the winning chance for Netherlands which has been missed by a margin out of small mistakes. Slowly bottom teams are competing good against the top teams is really good to watch.
