Sri Lanka vs West Indies
World Cup Qualifier Super Six Match Sri Lanka Vs West Indies. Sri Lanka and Netherlands have already qualified for the main stage of the World Cup. Sri Lanka are unbeaten so far in World Cup qualifiers. West Indies failed to qualify due to poor performance. Sri Lanka's bowling line and batting line are better than West Indies in today's match. Sri Lankan players have been performing well. West Indies are not performing well despite being a strong team. It is expected that both the teams will try to play well today. I think the chances of Sri Lanka winning today's match are very high.

The match between Sri Lanka and West Indies is only a regulation match as Netherlands and Sri Lanka have already qualified for the main stage of the World Cup. Before the start of this World Cup Qualifying tournament, everyone thought that maybe Sri Lanka and West Indies would make it to the main stage, but West Indies proved us all wrong. West Indies did not show their best performance due to which they did not qualify for the 2023 ODI World Cup. Not qualifying for the main stage of the World Cup is a huge failure for a team like West Indies. A team that has failed throughout the tournament but will definitely want to win the last match against Sri Lanka. Because West Indies have played four matches in Super Six where they have won only one match.

For those who are wondering what are the long-term implications of qualifying/not-qualifying to the world cup for both Netherlands and Scotland, I would provide some stats. Associate nations who qualified to the 2015 ODI World Cup received an additional funding of $1 million each. Netherlands is likely to receive this amount in 2023. Ever since Srinivasan/Pawar took over the ICC and BCCI two decades back, matches between associate nations and full members are almost inexistent. Netherlands will get a golden opportunity to play 9 matches against full members, since they have qualified. Scotland on the other hand have no ODIs scheduled against full members until 2027.

And the last match will be played on 9th of July and this match will be played between two qualified teams mean Srilanka and Netherlands .

IMO, Scotland was the better team by a good distance. They lost only because of poor captaincy. First of all, they should have easily made 300 batting first. However in the last 6 overs they could make only 43 runs, at 7 runs per over. Tomas Mackintosh was scoring quick runs, but he got no support from the other end. If they had made another 20-25 runs (which they should have done), then Netherlands would have never qualified for the world cup. And while bowling, the retarded Richie Berrington refused to give a second spell to Chris Sole. If you make these sort of retarded decisions, then you don't deserve to qualify for the world cup.

Really shocking performance from Sottish team after having impressive win against team like Zimbabwe they have done big shit in this match against the Netherlands and now out of the world cup here I also completely blame the captaincy and his batting as well because he can do much better, and surely they can easily touch 300+ but due to poor performance now they lost this golden opportunity for having place into mega event of this year.
 
Bas de Leede was hero for the winning team with his all round performance, first he takes five wickets and then have very aggressive century which help his team for having spot into world cup while they lost 4 wickets I was feeling it's going to be easy win for the Scotland but suddenly poor captaincy and bowling give good chance to Dutch, and now they have flight for the world cup after thrashing Scottish in this last game for these both countries into this event.

The match b/w UAE and USA was thrilling till the end.  This time Asif Khan performed very commendably, where he played exceptionally well with Sharma and Basil Hameed.  Even the USA team showed some impressive performances But their bowling was not right which is a major reason for their loss.  To win, the team must perform well both in batting and bowling and sometimes luck also plays an important role in the game.  Unfortunately luck did not favor them this time.

The way the USA played was absolutely commendable. Although they can't win. Players often get nervous when batting against a big target. But the USA players batted well in this match. Unfortunately, the USA lost by just 1 run. But probably no one imagined that the USA would put up such a tough fight in this match. Team USA has some very talented players. If these players get proper support then they will become more experienced. And we'll see more great gameplay from Team USA in the future.

In this event USA was the worst team as they fail to have any win but still in this last match they have done good job and fight hard till last ball 11 required in last over but still they manage to score 9 runs with lost of two wickets create good drama in this game, but UAE win the game and have end of this event on high note.

After winning toss UAE done good job and score 308 runs with the help of the Asif Khan big inning 151 which contain six sixes in reply USA which lost few quick wickets but still they were on their best have good fight middle-order give good stand and have good chance for the win of this match but fail with now things needs good changes and improvement in all departments if they want to have better chance for the future in this game.

Bas de Leede is just 23 years old and he has a bright future ahead of him. And furthermore, he is a home-grown player. He of Dutch origin and was born and brought up in the Netherlands. Netherlands played extremely well this time and they deserve to be in the world cup. Players like Bas de Leede, Logan van Beek and Scott Edwards put a lot of effort this time. Feels bad for Scotland, but it was due to the stupidity of their captain that they are out. Chris Sole was not given a second spell and that allowed the Dutch batsmen to score the required runs.

Sri Lanka vs West Indies
World Cup Qualifier Super Six Match Sri Lanka Vs West Indies. Sri Lanka and Netherlands have already qualified for the main stage of the World Cup.

Not qualifying for the main stage of the World Cup is a huge failure for a team like West Indies. A team that has failed throughout the tournament but will definitely want to win the last match against Sri Lanka. Because West Indies have played four matches in Super Six where they have won only one match.

The Sri Lankan team has qualified as per the earlier predictions. According to that prediction West Indies and Zimbabwe teams were also likely to qualify but neither of them could qualify. The Zimbabwean team did well in most of the matches but they could not sustain it towards the end. Due to which they failed to qualify for the World Cup this year. On the other hand, the West Indies team once upon a time won the World Cup, but now there has been a big deterioration in their cricket. Due to the low quality of performance, now they cannot qualify for the World Cup.

Sri Lanka won the toss and opt to bowl

The toss of the final World Cup qualifier between West Indies vs Sri Lanka has already taken place with Sri Lanka winning the match against West Indies and opting to field first. As most of the World Cup Qualifiers were interrupted by rain and the result of the match was decided by DLS system, Sri Lanka won the toss and decided to field to give Sri Lanka some advantage of DLS system due to rain. Sri Lanka have nothing to win and West Indies nothing to lose in this match. Because the win or loss of this match will not have any effect on the team as the two teams have already been decided for the main stage of the World Cup. In this match, Sri Lanka may field players who are out of their original XI. Because this match is a big opportunity for Sri Lanka to test the players on the bench.

[Sithara007]

West Indies has started quite confidently in the match against Sri Lanka. Johnson Charles has already hit two sixes and along with Brandon King he has added 33 runs in 5 overs. West Indies has only one win from 4 matches in Super6 stage and their only win came against Oman. And this is the last match of the Super6. After this one, only one more match remain in this tournament. And that is the final between Sri Lanka and Netherlands (to be played on 9th July at Harare). Both the teams have already qualified, so the results won't mean much.

West Indies started good. Theekshana came for his spell and took wickets of Brandon King and Shai Hope in his second and third overs. West Indies have reached 55/2 at the end of 10 overs. The team keeps the score coming good amidst the wickets. One more match left and the winning doesn't gonna make any changes as Sri Lanka and Netherlands have already qualified and flying to India.

Nor do today's game result matter to any team. West Indies wont play ODI word cup no matter whether they win or lose today's game. WI have lost 3 wickets in first 10 overs and the score is just 57. Maheesh Theekshana done the job for SL by picking all three wickets. WI were comfortable till the time Maheesh Theekshana was brought in to bowl. Seeing performance of WI in this CWC its now very clear that they don't deserve to play ODI world-cup.

[Popkon6]

Sri Lanka is a very strong team this season. Because the ICC World Cup has not lost a single match this season and will not lose today. Meanwhile, West Indies have had a poor performance in terms of batting, the fall of 5 wickets has put the team under a lot of pressure. Because if the Sri Lankan team has to fight and win then West Indies must score 300 plus runs. Sri Lanka today's match they did not enter the field with a lot of pressure because they are all ready for the final. Today's match is a race between the two teams to complete themselves as even if West Indies win they will not enter the final.

[Bitcoin_people]

Sri Lanka vs West Indies, Super Sixes, West Indies are batting in the first innings. West Indies have done their batting performance very badly today they have lost 5 wickets. West Indies are under huge pressure today due to the loss of 5 wickets. Sri Lanka has had a great bowling performance today which has resulted in the fall of so many wickets in a short span of time in today's match. Especially Maheesh Theekshana from Sri Lanka bowled brilliantly he took hat trick with three wickets today. At the moment West Indies are under pressure due to which their run rate has reduced. If they perform badly then West Indies will never win today's match against Sri Lanka. At the moment, West Indies have collected 93 runs in 20 overs with the loss of 5 wickets.

[Litzki1990]

Sri Lanka is a very strong team this season. Because the ICC World Cup has not lost a single match this season and will not lose today.

Sri Lanka is generally considered to be the best team in Asia. But unfortunately they did not do well in the Super League due to which they had to play the qualifiers to make it to the main stage of the World Cup. Yes they have not lost any match in the World Cup Qualifiers so far but their batting performance has not been very good. Matches are won depending on the bowling. Sri Lanka may not have beaten a World Cup qualifier so far but there is a huge difference between a World Cup qualifier and a World Cup main event. In the main stage of the World Cup, Sri Lanka will be a weaker team than the other eight teams,the remaining eight teams are stronger than Sri Lanka. How Sri Lanka is eligible for this 2023 World Cup has to be verified with the performance of the main phase of the World Cup.

[onecall123]

Sri Lanka winning all four of their matches so far, while West Indies have only managed to one win out of their four matches. Sri Lanka enters today's match as clear favorites, and hopefully their winning attitude continue throughout the World Cup qualification matches. One of the key reasons behind their success for their opening batsmen, had no problems chasing the target. Choosing to bowl first, Sri Lanka has already taken seven wickets of the West Indies team. It looks like Sri Lankan bowlers determine to bundle out West Indies to a low total.

[Unknown Op]

Sri Lanka won the toss and opt to bowl

~~snip~~

Sri Lanka which won the toss in the current World Cup qualifier between West Indies and Sri Lanka chose to field first. Since neither team has anything to lose Sri Lanka can use this match to put their bench players to the test. West Indies are now in the middle of their batting innings and have 151 runs in 33 overs while losing 7 wickets. In light of past results West Indies has a difficult task to achieve success. The actual winner will not be known until the match is over.

Today's odi match between United States vs United Arab Emirates has started. United Arab Emirates came to the field to bat first and scored 308 runs in 50 overs.  United Arab Emirates has to do. Now United Arab Emirates come to bat. They scored 10 runs in 2 overs. United Arab Emirates has not lost any wicket so far. But I am worried about who will win the match between the two teams today. It seems that United Arab Emirates is better in the bowling line.  Can perform and win the match.

UAE gave a good run target to United States but on the other hand United States are also playing well but they lost one wicket in short time which is a negative point for them but United States can get close to UAE's target and if they play well they can beat their given target. The match is going to be tight fighting

United States vs United Arab Emirates The match between the two teams is very intense. United States is trying hard to win this match. It seems that United Arab Emirates has some hope of winning this match if they can keep their wickets. United Arab Emirates started batting first.  Bowling has started very well. Which batsman of United Arab Emirates team has batted very well today. Bowling has started very well.

UAE have done well this season but Asif Khan came in at the last minute to score a big run. But still he remains undefeated in this match can ever be imagined as Asif Khan collected almost half of the team's runs and took the team to the winning end. Meanwhile, despite the good bowling, USA couldn't grab the win in the end, it's a pity and last minute fielding failure cost them some more runs. USA in particular gave away 23 runs extra. USA's failure here is because the captain lacks experience. An experienced bowler was needed at the last minute. Experience complete bowling is required to overcome this pressure moment.

The United Arab Emirates scored well but they lost the confidence as the opposition United States almost reached the target. Fortunately United Arab Emirates team won. There is no big effect of win or loss in this match but good batsman has been found in the United Arab Emirates team, he is Asif Khan. He was able to score 151 runs by his batting. It is a great achievement for United Arab Emirates to find a good batsman like him. The United States, on the other hand, cannot forget the 1-run defeat.

There was a lot of faith that the United States would be able to meet the target that the UAE had given. And USA almost made up for it but lost the match by just 1 run. I predicted from the early performances that the match would be a tight one and it was. the match was so hard fought that the match was almost going to be a draw but UAE won the match by just 1 run. It is very nice to see such a game. USA had a lot of effort and they put in a very good performance which is really commendable

Sri Lanka have been playing well since the start of the World Cup Qualifiers while West Indies have not been doing so well.  In today's match, Sri Lanka won the toss and decided to field. The game put West Indies under a lot of pressure from the start and looked likely to be bowled out before they could play the entire over. Sri Lanka bowling is very good especially Sri Lanka player Maheese Theekshana bowled 10 overs and picked up four wickets. His four-wicket haul instilled a lot of confidence in the minds of the Sri Lankan players.

West Indian update score
Socre 177
Over    39 (11 over are left)
Total Wicked Los : 8

The WI are currently under a lot of pressure as their target is quite low and all their batsmen have lost their wickets. Considering the situation,it seem unlikely that the  WI will be able to win this match. This match can be considered as a guest already given the circumstances. If k.Carty and k.Sinclair can deliver a good porformance on the pitch there is hope that the target can be improved. Now everything depends on how they perform as there are still a significant number of overs left, but there are not many reliable players left to bat. Best of luck to them.
