ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

Not sure about South Africa. They need to win at least 5 out of their 8 matches. And their remaining ( matches are against: Netherlands (2), India (3, in India), Australia (3, in Australia). They may easily win the two matches against Netherlands, but I am doubtful whether they may manage 3 wins from the remaining 6 matches.

And regarding Bangladesh and Afghanistan, they performed really well in the ODI super league so far. Bangladesh had series wins against West Indies and Sri Lanka. Afghanistan swept Zimbabwe, Netherlands and Ireland 3-0, while got occasional wins against other teams.

I still feel that the South African side would be able to get through as they have beaten India in the past and also Australia. Out of six matches, they can easily win 3. Bangladesh and Afghanistan are the weak teams out of those 7 who have already qualified. They won't be able to create any buzz when they play in World Cup.

I agree with you most chances South Africa will be last team with few chances for Sri Lanka as in last few matches they are not performing good and this is going to hurt their cause badly West Indies is already out Ireland is also not capable of beating South Africa, so we will have some challenge between these two teams where South Africa is well favorite with their quality and performance level.

After this Asia Cup and T-20 World Cup Sri Lanka is going to New Zealand which is surely going to be tough for them and South Africa is having eight matches which are giving them good advantage most chances they can win easily four or five matches which are enough for them to qualify into World Cup without any qualification.

There is no way to call Bangladesh and Afghanistan teams weak in ODI format. Bangladesh and Afghanistan are capable of performing well in this format. They are even capable of challenging any strong team. But they are weak in T20 or test format.

After todays win by Afghanistan over srilanka no one can say that Afghanistan is a weak team, they are as good as anyother ODI team. i am sure the way they are going very soon they will get a test status. Last team to get test status was Bangladesh in 2000, since then no new team has got test status.

Afghanistan always surprize the world. It is amazing  that Afghanistan has made it position clear in top seven. And South Africa and Sri Lanka are still to get the green signal to come up to 20-30 Super league.

No doubt Afghanistan is one of the most exciting team in current cricket world like we have West Indies few decades back and then Pakistan in 90s unpredictable and full of excitement about their games which can go either way right now Afghanistan is also going on this way, but sadly they have big disadvantage they can't play at home and most chances it's not possible in coming 10 to 15 years as we have situation in Afghanistan.
 
But, they are still full of energy and have good commitment about this game which is the best part of this game their sports authorities are also doing good work and have good domestic games which are helping to improve quality and better environment in this country for next generation.

ZIM vs AUS the 1st ODI of the Tour no doubt that AUS is a very powerful team right now against ZIM according to the current updates the Match is ongoing and ZIM is opening with the 64 Runa on a loss of 1 Wicket and excitement goes on with the 16 Overs. Seems like ZIM is struggling for the Runs but heavy play by the players appreciated as Partnership is far more important then the Runs Rate in the first 25 oblvers and ZIM is trying to hold down the Wickets

Now Zimbabwe is batting.  They are playing much better.  Zimbabwe have lost 5 wickets so far.  They scored 186 runs in 44 overs.  Looks like they can score more than 220 runs in this match.  All their good batting outs.  Now they have to face many problems to get runs.  Wesley Madhavere scored 72 off 91 balls.  I think he played very well.

First of all, I am not 100% sure whether South Africa will be able to win the two remaining matches against Netherlands. And the remaining 6 matches will be played in India and Australia. Getting 3 wins doesn't look very easy. Anyway, as of now Sri Lanka has the maximum chances, in case they can get 3 wins from their 6 matches. And it is quite possible because their remaining matches are against Afghanistan and New Zealand. If they could get 2 wins against Afghanistan and one against NZ, then they're through.

Only time will tell which team will qualify but after watching Afghanistan win against Srilanka I am sure it would not be easy for Srilanka anymore.

While watching the match yesterday I saw an advertisement on the Disney Hotstar app. The advert in question is of 1xBET and I would like to check with you and @JSRAW if is this even legal. Are these apps allowed to promote gambling in India?
Another important thing is that this company is known for conducting fraud and illegal activities. I came across a Scam Accusation about it.

There has been an end to the Zimbabwe vs Australia match. There was no doubt that the match between these two teams was very one-sided, as we all expected it to be. With five wickets in hand, Australia won the match with almost 17 overs to spare. Despite Zimbabwe's best efforts, the Australian team was unfazed by what happened, and they walked away with the victory. As a result, Zimbabwe simply did not score enough runs on the board to win the game. In addition, they got all out before the 50 overs were fished. The Australians did not have any problems whatsoever during the whole process.

Its first of three match ODI series and chances are Aus will whitewash Zim here. Zim are making a come back to main cricket after sometime, they have a bright past. They must not get disappointed with such loss rather try to bat full 50 overs and score as many runs as possible, this will boost there confidence for long term success.

The opening from Zimbabwe is good, but the middle order failed to score. If Munyonga and Raza have managed to score little runs. Zimbabwe could've managed to add more 50 runs to the total. Raza is complete disappointment, because scoring 5 runs facing 24 balls in an ODI is poor performance. Anyhow it was good Zimbabwe played well and it'll improve in the coming matches.

They did not do well in the first match. Expectation was more than they have done. Due to low scores from the good players, total run in the match was very low. However, It was the first ODI match between Zimbabwe and Australia in the series. Australia win the match by five wickets. In the next match Zimbabwe may be able to do better.

Pakistan and India are playing in Dubai.
Pakistan has made 148 and India is not batting at 12/1 - the stadium is full there are lots of blue shirt in stadium too. Let's enjoy the match

Zim are too much relying on Raza and thats a good sign. If Raza perform then Zim performs well and vice versa. Wessly Madhevere scored 72 runs and  Tadiwanashe Marumani 45 runs other then that its a dry score card. Its good to see ICC giving Zim ODI series againest test teams, that will help Zim in coming back.

Bad news for Pakistan players that they lost against Indian players. If Pakistan players come into the game with a bit of focus, they don't feel that they have to lose against India, but it is a big bad news for Pakistan.  i think

Seems like Pakistanis are not much interested in cricket these days - because there is a heavy flood running in Pakistan and the people are busy helping flood affected areas.
Yesterday for the first time - people did not show much enthusiasm for the match and they remained busy in helping the people in need.

How is that related by the way? If Pakistan had won the match against India you would not have given such a statement . If flooding and natural calamity were the reason for them losing the match then they could have skipped the match or they could have asked the Pakistani community in the middle east to help the destitute affected due to the floods.

Did they? They could have gone a step further and could have asked the Indian team, BCCI, or the emirates cricket board to donate the earnings from this match to the relief efforts. Did they? No, they went ahead with the match and lost it. Do not bring such emotional issues to get a safe exit for the effortless effort of the Pakistan team.  

It is only a game! It has nothing to do with the situation currently in Pakistan. If you are so concerned then go ahead and donate your earnings to this noble cause.

Finally a relief for India after they lost by 10 wickets here few months back. But one thing is clear whether it's shaheen Shah or Naseem Shah they can't play any of them. Pakistan will donate earnings after conclusion of this tournament. People of Pakistan are already donating to many charity organisations to help flood affected people.

With the respect I am feeling you are on wrong thread because yesterday we have no ODI this was a T20 game and both teams play very good with India was well-prepared, and they have done good homework before start of the game just because of this they won this match with just two balls were remaining in match which mean we have very interesting match where both teams fight till end and then India won this match.

Indian bowlers done good job and not allow Pakistani batsmen to play freely which was turning point of this game specially Hardik Pandya and Bhuvneshwar Kumar both were on their target in bowling then Hardik Pandya gave good stand in batting which gives them a hard fought win in second game of this Asia Cup.

[Sithara007]

Why everyone discussing the Asia Cup here? This thread was designated for ODI cricket, and not for T20I.

A few more updates regarding the 2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League. Tomorrow, there is going to be an ODI between Australia and Zimbabwe (2nd match in the three-match series). If Australia win the two remaining matches, they will end up with 100 points, and that will ensure their qualification to the next year's world cup. Anyway, it is just a formality now. The more interesting series is the one between India and South Africa, starting in October. South Africa needs to win at least one match.

[GigaBit]

Zimbabwe lost one match in the ODI series between Zimbabwe and Australia and it is easy to say that the remaining two matches will also be one sided matches. Australia will win the series. But I have little hope that Zimbabwe will be able to build counteraction in today's match. If T Marumani , Madhevere , Raza and Chakabva can perform well. If these four player can push the score ‍and keep them under pressure in bowling then Zimbabwe's dream may come true. Then a big change can be seen in their cricket.
