It is good for Zimbabwe. If small teams are continually get this opportunity, they will do better. Just look at the Afghanistan cricket, they deserves praise today. The maturity they have shown in cricket has made the whole cricketing world splendid. If they can maintain this consistency, they will be able to improve their cricket in the upper level.

I am not sure whether it will be good for Zimbabwe, they need to find quality players and for getting exposure and experience playing against top level teams would benefit the talents, other than that there is no point in conducting these ODI series where the players hardly play the entire quota of overs let alone have a competitive match in any aspect.

Even for punters the odds are not that great since it is a one sided trashing.

We already figure out this many times here now time is running out for this all because they need good and professional management but sadly right now they have corrupt and crap political influence which is not allowing their domestic set-up to have better system even they are having good funds from ICC, and they also can do some marketing which will bring some good amount in their wallet for better things they already lost their golden era just because of this political influence and their quality players are living outside this country for decades which can change things for them, and they can do good even not at top but still good which is acceptable for all.

Now wait for revolutionary person who super head them, and they have few good things for their cricketing community because they are also good for ODI and T20 format instead of playing in all three formats which is surely not good for them right now.

I remember Zimbabwe playing against Bangladesh 10 or 12 years ago. At that time also, the Zimbabwe batsmen did not have any sponsor for their bat. And after all these times they still don’t have any sponsor. I know that they have a lot of problems going on. But if the money is put into the right hands, I think these things should have been taken care of by now.

Just look at the Bangladesh cricket team, they don’t even play very well but they have almost everything. I am not saying that the Zimbabwe team is much better compared to Bangladesh or Afghanistan. But I really don’t see any improvements in the last few years from Zimbabwe. And on the other hand, we can see Afghanistan basically does not have any stability right now doing very well in cricket. Zimbabwe should be able to utilize the money well to at least have a good future in cricket.

The case with Afghanistan is surprising. Despite the fact that Afghanistan is under Taliban regime, the cricket team has performed exceptionally better against top teams. They managed to defeat both Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, who got the test status decades earlier when compared to them. Sri Lanka's case is also understandable, since the country is going through a lot of economic turmoil. But then what happened to Bangladesh? Apart from some issues between the players and the board, they were doing relatively well compared to the other teams.

The performances of Afghanistan and Ireland are surprising everyone now. Afghanistan is now very strong in ODI and T20 formats. They performed exceptionally well against Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. And looking at their performance, it looks like they will be able to do well against any strong team now. I would not be surprised to see Afghanistan in the Asia Cup final.

The Bangladesh team is ruined due to the corruption of their BCB bosses. Their domestic league is very weak. And so they are not finding new talented players. At the same time, Bangladesh is not getting good performance from the squad players. If new players are not found, the performance of the Bangladesh team will further deteriorate.

Afghanistan team is completely dependent on spin bowling. They have some world famous spinners in their team who can turn the match at any time. But they performed very well against Ireland relying on spin They have developed a lot in T20 as well as ODI cricket. Hope they do better in future.

It can be said that their progress is more relatively short period of time. Rashid Khan and Nabi are two world famous all rounders. Any big batsman has to bow before their spin ball. Also, they are very good at batting. There are some bowlers like Mujeeb and  Fazalhaq Farooqi  who are also bowling well. Also there are good hitters in the team so I can support Afghanistan as a complete team for any of the format.

Rashid Khan and Mujibur Rahman are the two most feared spinners of the Afghanistan cricket team.They can knock out the best batsmen in the world in any time.They bowled like googly and beat the batsmen. Besides, the rest of the Afghan team played quite well.They have good quality batsman.There is good understanding among their team.They have the ability to do well in any format  T20 or ODI.

Both Rashid and Mujibur are among the best spinners in the T20 format. Afghanistan is quite strong in the spin department. Even their irregular bowlers such as Izharulhaq Naveed and Zahir Khan are in great demand across the franchise T20 leagues. Their pace bowlers are relatively inexperienced and that can be their weakness. Bowlers such as Fazalhaq Farooqi and Azmatullah Omarzai have the pace and venom, but they can be put under pressure very easily. Naveen-ul-Haq is slightly better, but he is also not very experienced.

Afghanistan team is now very strong in terms of bowling and batting. Here I look at the statistics of some players who have come to good positions in a short period of time especially in ODI format. One such is Fareed Ahmad who has managed to take 15 wickets in 11 matches.  Fazalhaq Farooqi He played only 7 matches and took 13 wickets and Mujeeb Ur Rahman He played 52 matches and took 79 wickets. However, among them, Mujibur Rahman has already gained quite good reputation.

Pakistan and Hong Kong are competing in Asia cup today at Dubai. Hong Kong is not coming slow and they gave competitively better performance as a new team.
despite of the fact they are nervous and gave a few no balls and wides.
But the team is not of local HongKong players seems like they are all international.

Tomorrow there will be third ODI between Zimbabwe and Australia. Australia have already won the series and chances are they will won the last ODI also. Zimbabwe put up a decent show in first ODI scoring 200 runs but in second ODI it was a total disaster. Whole Zimbabwe team was bowled out for just 97 runs.
Let's see how Zimbabwe performs tomorrow.

Despite getting so many opportunities, Zimbabwe could not give any good cricket in few days. It is said that their players did not qualify to play with the big team. There is no question of winning with Australia. It wouldn't have been less if they could have put a little pressure on them but they couldn't do anything against them. Anyway will have to wait for the last match to see what they can do.

Guys you are on wrong thread because this is related to ODI and you are talking about Asia Cup which is playing under T20 rules, so please leave this all here and go to relative thread for more discussion about this because this counts as spam and mods can punish you for this here on this thread.

Too many peoples are feeling not good about Zimbabwe as they already have enough time but still fail to give better results in all formats which is true but sadly right now no one can do anything about this ICC needs to check on these things and bring some better system which help to increase in quality but with ICC local boards are also had responsibility to do better things for the improvement of quality and bring better domestic structure which helps native players to have better facilities for good game.

It is certainly going to be a whitewash by Australia in my opinion. There is no way Zimbabwe is going to win against Australia.

I am actually going to be surprised if Zimbabwe even makes this match competitive at this point. The way Australia had won the first two matches it is quite certain that they are going to dominate the third ODI as well. Zimbabwe did score 200 runs in the first ODI but that didn’t do anything. Australia found it really easy. For Australia, it was like walking on the cake. And I think it is going to be something same like that in the third ODI as well.

Australia is batting first and they already lost three wickets and i was surprised to see the scoreboard as Zimbabwe was able to pick the wickets of Aaron Finch, Steven Smith and Alex Carey for just 31 runs on the board.

Australia need a good partnership from David Warner and Marcus Stoinis and they have Glenn Maxwell in the end to increase the scoring pace.

Losing 3 wickets might've created pressure on Australia. On the other side David Warner is strong nearing his 50 runs. So, the score will reach good amidst the early wicket fall. It looks like Stoinis won't make big runs, he seem to withstand the wicket fall. Zimbabwe right now needs to fasten the match with few more wickets. Maybe restricting within 250 runs will let Zimbabwe play freely and try for a win.

[n0ne]

Big winning opportunity for Zimbabwe. Earlier while checking the score the winning probability of Zimbabwe was just 8% and now the winning percentage for Zimbabwe is 75% which shows Australia haven't performed well. Australia have ended the innings scoring 141 runs. Finally Zimbabwe can boost themselves with a good win against Australia. The interesting thing, Warner have scored 94 runs facing 96 balls. Remaining runs were the contribution by the remaining players excluding 9 extras.

Zimbabwe have been playing a lot of bad games for the past few days which is needless to say if Zimbabwe want to stay in the field they need to focus on them first.  There was a possibility

[Sithara007]

WTF just happened? 

Australia got bowled out for 141. And David Warner scored 94 out of the total. Ryan Burl took 5 wickets, while Brad Evans picked up two. A very good chance for Zimbabwe, to pick up 10 very important points in the ICC ODI super league. But it is not ging to help them. Even if they win all the remaining matches, they are out of contention for automatic qualification for the ODI World Cup 2023.
