Pakistan again bowled well but the Kiwis bowled better. The whole Pakistani batting line up just collapsed. Only the Captain stood thier but was not that agressive considering the number of balls he faced. The series is now tied and the last ODI will decide who will win it. Pakistan are still the favourite but after today's game I think the Kiwis do have a chance.

Kiwi's gave their regular performance. Pakistan batsmen didn't perform well. In between the team had some improvement, once again team have turned to be dependent upon specific players. In the match it was Babar Azam and Rizwan to score. No more scoring players on the home ground. This is reachable target. Let's see what is the ability of Pakistan in the upcoming ODI.

India VS Srilanka

The second ODI between these two teams will be played today. The match will be played on Eden Gardens. The last time these two teams played on Eden Gardens, Rohit Sharma score 200+ runs. I am hoping a simpler kind of performance by this time too. I am expecting both Ishan Kishan and SKY to be part of the playing 11. The problem with Srilanka is lack of experience bowlers. I do not think Dilshan Madushanka will be part of the Srilankan playing 11 as he had dislocated his shoulder in the previous ODI. Their batters are in good form and I expecting a good & exciting game of cricket today.

Of course, New Zealand's comeback in the second match yesterday was due to the strong performance of the New Zealand bowlers compared to the Pakistani bowlers. If you look carefully, you will see that all 6 New Zealand bowlers took a wicket yesterday. On the other hand, Pakistan's only batsman, Babar Azam, has not seen a half-century. Mohammad Rizwan scored 28 runs after Babar Azam's 79 runs. However, Pakistan's two batsmen unexpectedly ran out and pushed the team into more trouble.

Poor batting from Pakistan resulted in their loss and I couldn't find anything threatening from the New Zealand bowlers. The Kiwis were missing many of their star bowlers such as Trent Boult and Kyle Jamieson. And despite that all the Pakistani batsmen except Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan failed to score runs. At no point during the chase Pakistan looked to be in a comfortable position. Wickets were falling regularly and the required run rate was also constantly climbing up. The New Zealand spinners were impressive yesterday. Bowled 30 overs in total and conceded just 114 runs after taking 5 wickets.

In the first match, India played really well and Sri Lanka did not have too many chances to win. I think something like that is going to happen in this match as well. India is obviously in better form right now. And India is also better in terms of the quality of the team in my opinion.

I am not giving Sri Lanka too many chances to win this match. But I do hope that Sri Lanka will be able to perform better compared to what they did in the first match. At least I do not want it to be one sided. But I think Sri Lanka should be ready for another batting track.

In the 1st odi match India vs Sri Lanka India performed very well and defeated New Zealand by 67 runs which was a very good score.  Today is India vs Sri Lanka 2nd ODI match again.  India cricket game as a popular and strong team they always have more chances to win.  So this time also according to my prediction I see India as the winning team. But Sri Lanka will have to struggle a lot to win the match.  It is doubtful how much Sri Lanka will be able to pressure India

In the first ODI match between India vs Sri Lanka, India did a great performance to defeat Sri Lanka by 67 runs.We saw that Virat Kohli was selected as Man of the Match in that match In the first ODI match, Virat Kohli was able to score 113 runs off just 87 balls. The second match between Sri Lanka vs India will be played on 12th January. Hope India will enter the field to win this match. And the Sri Lankan team will want to win this match to level the series. Expect a very fighting match between India and Sri Lanka today.

The match will take place at Eden Gardens. It is going to be yet another flat track where India will be able to get to a total of close to 400 if they bat first. Indian batsmen are in good form, and on the other hand the Sri Lankan bowlers have been leaking runs without any exception. Wanindu Hasaranga used to be very effective in these conditions, but now the Indian batsmen seems to have studied him thoroughly and they know how to deal with him. Pacers such as Kasun Rajitha and Dilshan Madushanka are unable to do much under conditions that are not helpful.

I think Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will play a potential role today like in the first odi match. Dasun Shanaka can perform well for Sri Lanka but he cannot tackle everything alone.  So for the team to win, all the players have to play well. If India bat first, they will score more than 350 runs today. Sri Lanka will also score 300+ runs.  But if they play a bit better, they can put India under pressure

The team that bats first and can give a big target will have more chances of winning. In the last match, India batted aggressively from the start for which they managed to through a big score. Sri Lanka were defeated at that venue. If a normal target of 300 runs was given then Sri Lanka could have done well in the match. One thing I notice is that in this series both Sri Lanka and India are trying their best to collect a big scores.

[Sithara007]

Some of the decisions from Rohit sounds odd. He chose Shubman Gill ahead of Ishan Kishan and the most baffling one was the omission of Suryakumar Yadav. This is one of the reasons why Rohit should be replaced as the captain by someone young. He is just turning out to be Kohli on steroids and is not exactly captain material. One of his decisions worked well so far, and that was to pick Umran Malik ahead of Prasidh Krishna. I am not expecitng any changes to the Indian playing XI. For pace bowling combination, it is going to be Shami-Umran-Siraj.

Pakistan performed bad and now the series is on 1-1. And the next match will decide who will win the series. Both teams will do their best to win the match. And the next match is going to be interesting. And I hope  Pakistan will not that mistakes which has made in the last match. Let see what happen?

It's true that Pakistan perform too bad , No one hold on pitch with Thier partner for long time in order to build a strong partnership , Not every only Baber will perform and will win match for them , They must help him to build partnership which will help Pakistan to win but they didn't, after defeat I don't know why people make baber responsible for this defeat, he score huge as compared to other.
Now they must need changes in squad in order to win this ODI series against New Zealand.

Pakistan needs the win more than New Zealand at this point. Pakistan is nearly full-strength, although their best bowler is missing. On top of that, they have the home advantage as well. New Zealand is missing several of their pacers and their batsmen are not in good form. Despite all that, if New Zealand manages to win this ODI series, then it will provide them with a huge boost ahead of the 2023 ODI World Cup. Match will start by 3pm Indian time tomorrow and both the teams will be desperate to win the match and thereby the series.

Yes this is typical Pakistani batting who always failed to perform and because of that Pakistan lost another match. Disappointing performance by batsman and Newzealand was regular like always its not like they did something extra .
Pakistan will loose this series if they continue like this.

Srilanka won the toss and opted to bat first. A good decision as haze might play a role in the second half. Also the temperature tends to suddenly drop at night. I will not be easy for the Indian batters to chase the target set by the Srilankan batters. Any target which is 250+ would be good on this field.

I don't know what Sri Lankan batters are doing. They made a good comeback after an early wicket but now these guys are getting bamboozled by Kuldeep and Axar.

I was hoping for a big target chase but now it would be a miracle if SL crosses 200-220 mark.

101/1 to 126/6

In the 2nd ODI match Sri Lanka vs India the match between these two teams has started. Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to bat and scored 149 runs in 27 overs. And Sri Lanka have lost 6 wickets so far.  If they can't play, there is a possibility that they will be all out today. Because now Sri Lanka have only 4 wickets left. We can see that India bowlers have started bowling very well from the beginning.

I have never seen a team from the subcontinent struggling against spinners. Kuldeep & Axar destroyed thier middle order. Rest Umran & Shiraz took care off. None of the Srilankan batters were able to form a good partnership. They tried but eventually gave up against the good Indian bowling on a batter friendly pitch. A complete dominance by the Indian team. It is an easy target to chase and a win win situation for India.
