Sri Lanka vs Netherlands

Today is the final match of World Cup Qualifier Sri Lanka vs Netherlands. Both these teams have qualified for the main stage of the World Cup. Sri Lanka played well in the World Cup qualifiers and won all the matches. Sri Lanka is a stronger team than Netherlands in today's match. Sri Lanka bowling and batting line is better than Netherlands. Netherlands lost their Super Six match against Sri Lanka, which Sri Lanka won by 21 runs. I think Sri Lanka will win today's match too.

Bangladesh could not save the series, Afghanistan won the series one match earlier. The Tigers lost shamefully by a huge margin of 142 runs at their own home ground. The flow of events in the last 60 hours centered around Tamim Iqbal's retirement was bound to have an impact on field cricket. The performance that the fast bowlers of Bangladesh have maintained in the last two or three years has not been seen in this series. This defeat of Bangladesh is actually a concern as Bangladesh's first match in the World Cup is against Afghanistan. Even in the same group of the Asia Cup, the opponent will be Afghanistan. The time is very short, in this short time, Bangladesh has to turn around and play cricket on the field. The cricketers have to stay away from what is happening outside. Afghanistan's series against Bangladesh gave it an extra advantage in the Asia Cup and the World Cup.

Sri Lanka have the biggest chance of winning the trophy today. Because the Netherlands of the moment did not perform better than Sri Lanka and came to the final. Especially Sri Lanka's best form is Karunaratne in the batting line if he performs well in today's match then Sri Lanka will surely win.
From this point of view, Netherlands will definitely lose today with Sri Lanka.  
Sri Lanka team has not lost with any team in ICC World Cup 2023 that's why we believe that they will definitely win today's match.

 Netherlands lost their Super Six match against Sri Lanka, which Sri Lanka won by 21 runs. I think Sri Lanka will win today's match too.

The Super Over was played against the West Indies team. @Bd officer your information is wrong. I was with this held game.

Obviously, Sri Lanka is a better team compared to the Netherlands. But it will be interesting to see if Sri Lanka uses the full strength of the team against the Netherlands. I am guessing that Sri Lanka might rest some players. And if that happens and the Netherlands also goes into this match with full strength, the results might be different than what we are thinking.

But in general, Sri Lanka to be able to win this match easily in my opinion. Obviously, it is going to be a surprise if Netherlands somehow manages to win this match. But I believe it will be better for both teams to rest some important players so that they don’t get any kind of injury just before the World Cup.

I think both of you are talking about two different games. @Bd officer, He’s talking about the match which was played between Sri Lanka and Netherlands in the “super six” stage. The Netherlands lost the match by 21 runs against Sri Lanka. Even though the Netherlands did really well in that match in my opinion. @Popkon6 is talking about the match which went into “super over” between West Indies and the Netherlands.

It was basically a simple misunderstanding.

Srilanka are unbeaten so far in this tournament so they definitely have an upper hand in today's match. There were two encounters between both these teams in this CWC and both are very close. In warm up match SL won by just 3 wikcets while in super six match SL were bowled out for just 213 runs and Netherlands were just 21 runs short of winning the game. Both teams have qualified for WC for outcome of today's match won't matter.

Since Sri Lanka are stronger than Netherlands, Sri Lanka will want to win the toss and field first. Sri Lanka will be considered one of the most successful teams in the World Cup qualifiers if they can finish the last match with a win.

Very worst performance have come from Bangladesh. The team was in good position with better confidence winning its recent series against Ireland, gave tough fight in the series against England, won against india. Likewise the team was at its best. All of the sudden Afghanistan have made the Bangladesh team really low with the batting and bowling. Both the openers of Afghanistan scoring century shows how good this team have practised. A big learning for Bangladesh before the World Cup and the Asia Cup.

Bangladesh can not expect such a bad performance from them. Because the past matches were hard fought and won the reputation but Afghanistan pushed Bangladesh to utter destruction. Neither of them could perform well in terms of bowling and batting, which is why Bangladesh's result stands today. Although Bangladesh started this ODI section with such poor performance I think Bangladesh will lose in the third match. Here Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zardan of Afghanistan have taken the Afghanistan team to the top of the victory with a fiery performance.

Even the previous loss isn't that bad. For that itself the captain ended his cricketing career and he have taken back the decision just because the Prime Minister have requested. Now he might have thought we shouldn't have taken back the decision. As said the top players did the best, and what a partnership from the two. They have played as if like they've played more number of matches.

Bangladesh team needs Tamim Iqbal at the moment as well as in the upcoming Asia Cup and World Cup. Tamim Iqbal is a reliable batsman for the Bangladesh team and currently he is captaining the Bangladesh team. No one expected his sudden retirement. The senior officials of the cricket board tried their best to withdraw from his retirement announcement but he did not accept their request. Finally he changed his status at the request of the Prime Minister of Bangladesh. But the way the Bangladesh team lost yesterday's match due to his absence, it is not difficult to understand how important Tamim Iqbal is for the Bangladesh team.

Sri Lanka vs Netherlands

Today is the last match of ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier. These two teams already qualified for the ICC ODI world cup. And we take a look on the performance of both teams so we will see that Srilanka is more strong as compare to Netherlands so just like you I also think that Srilanka will win this match too. Because it has performed good in these qualifier matches.

Tamim Iqbal is a very good quality batsman, everyone knows it. But Tamim Iqbal is very needed for Bangladesh team. But no one expected Tamim Iqbal to take such a decision. But what happened is a big loss for Bangladesh team. But Tamim  If Iqbal can bat better than before then it will be a big gain for the Bangladesh team. I have seen Tamim Iqbal play a big role in the previous matches. Now it is to be seen whether Tamim Iqbal can do as well as before.

Already both the teams have got qualified for the World Cup. The result of the match isn't a big thing. In 32 overs Sri Lanka have scored 158/3 which could reach 250 - 300 runs by the end of 50 overs. Sri Lanka have lost early wickets and now Arachchige at 48* runs and Asalanka at 29* runs on the crease. This could be a winning match for Sri Lanka as the experience will always have its role.

[Bitcoin_people]

Sri Lanka is opening the batting in the Sri Lanka vs Netherlands match. Sri Lanka are not having a very good batting performance against Netherlands today due to which their run rate is not increasing much. Right now they have lost 6 wickets which is unlucky for Sri Lanka as the Sri Lankan batsmen are under a lot of pressure. Netherlands bowlers Vikramjit Singh and Saqib Zulfiqar both bowled brilliantly to take wickets today. Even though Sri Lanka have more chances to win today's match, it looks like it will be very difficult for them to win the match. It may not be possible to get to the opposition team with so few runs, so they have to hold the game until the end to increase the runs. If Sri Lanka could have scored 250 runs in today's match, then there would have been a chance to win the match, but it may not be possible to score so many runs, they don't have many wickets. At the moment Sri Lanka score 184 runs 37 overs 6 wickets.

Today is the final match of the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier. In today's final match two teams face each other, Sri Lanka Cricket Team vs Netherlands Cricket Team. Today's match will determine which team will be the champion. In this final match, the Sri Lankan cricket team is batting in the first innings after losing the toss. They have been playing very well in batting since the beginning. At the moment, the Sri Lanka team is 170 runs with the loss of three wickets in 34 overs. Sri Lanka cricket team is expected to score 300 runs in today's match. In today's match I have selected Sri Lankan team as favorite team. Let's wait till the end and see which team can qualify as champions

Since Sri Lanka are stronger than Netherlands, Sri Lanka will want to win the toss and field first. Sri Lanka will be considered one of the most successful teams in the World Cup qualifiers if they can finish the last match with a win.

Sri Lanka will definitely not want to lose against a team like the Netherlands. But Sri Lankan batsmen are not playing well today. Sri Lanka collected 213 runs in 43 overs. But they lost 7 wickets. Sri Lanka will probably not be able to give a target of more than 250. The Netherlands batsmen played very well in the last match against Scotland. And if the Netherlands batsmen are able to bat responsibly against Sri Lanka, then the chances of victory for the Netherlands in today's match are high. But the Sri Lankan bowlers are quite experienced. And so I would say both teams have equal chances to win so far.

Sri Lanka is batten right now and they have collected 226/8 in 44.2 overs. If I remember correctly, they have already got more runs than they scored in that last match against the Netherlands. I don’t know if Sri Lanka will be able to play the whole 50 overs. I think they might actually be all out before that.

But I believe Sri Lanka will be able to defend the total. I think they will probably be able to get somewhere around 240. If Sri Lanka can reach  250 from this situation, it is going to be a really good score for them to defend. But the Netherlands still has a chance. they will have to keep wickets in hand.

The Sri Lankan team could not collect even 250 runs. Sri Lanka lost all wickets by 233 runs. Sahan scored the maximum 57 runs for Sri Lanka. On the other hand, the performance of almost every bowler in the Netherlands was quite controlled. The way Nedland has batted in the last few matches, it can be assumed that 233 runs is not a big target for them. However, in the previous match against Sri Lanka, the Netherlands team was defeated despite batting on a target of only 214 runs. And so it would be foolish to think that the Netherlands will easily win today's match. Sri Lanka's chances of winning are still high.

[synchronym]

Netherlands won the toss and decided to field and they took advantage of this decision. Sri Lanka were bowled out for 233. Sri Lanka were playing well from the start. Today's World Cup qualifying final match is very important for both teams. Sri Lanka have not batted very well so they should try their best to take their wickets when the Netherlands bat. Today's match will be out of their hands if they don't take wickets. In today's match the bowlers of Netherlands have bowled well, if they can bat the way they have been bowling then they will be very close to victory. Let's see which team is able to win in the end.

[n0ne]

Sri Lanka haven't lost any of the matches in the World Cup Qualifier. With its previous win Netherlands is highly confident to chase targets. However to play against experienced teams is still a struggle. The score of 233 runs seems a reachable target, but Sri Lanka is getting better in its bowling order. Particularly the spinners were performing good, today the fast bowlers have been giving good break from the beginning. Already Madushanka have taken 3 wickets as Netherlands have lost 4 wickets scoring 39 runs in 8 overs.

[JSRAW]

Lol Bangladesh completely rolled over against the Afghans? Losing is okay but that badly, well it should be worrisome.

Latter out batted and outbowled (Both pace and spin) the former convincingly. I Hope Bongs bounce back in the next match otherwise it'll hurt their WC preparation.

In first two ODI's of this series they have nothing positive batting, bowling and fielding all going badly down and sudden retirement of Tamim Iqbal is also having bad impact on their performance now he is back, but things like these bring negativity on teams and players with Afghanistan is surely improving and now having good experience in ODI and twenty/20 which is helping them for having better results.

Now we have last ODI on 11th July hopefully things will be better for them but overall they need to bring some changes in their system and team as well because with this performance we can't expect anything good from them in big events like Asia Cup and World Cup most chances they could be fought for the 9th or 10th spots if they keep going like this.

If we leave this out for a moment then I just got to know that Afghanistan become the second team to win the ODI series in Bangladesh. No other team, except England and Afghanistan enjoys this feat.

I do remember Bangbros defeated India recently but kinda surprised about this fine home record.

Vikramjit Singh 13

Apart from these two players from the Netherlands, none of the other players could touch the double-digit mark, instead, most of the wickets were Zero run out. Here is the complete failure of the Dutch batting line.

On the face of it, Sri Lanka seemed to perform very poorly today, especially as they were bowled out for 233 in the 47th over. But no one could have predicted that the target of 234 runs would become so difficult for the Netherlands. Many cricket fans had assumed that the Netherlands would probably become the champions in the CWC 2023 but there were doubts whether the Netherlands team, who were 5 wickets down for 41 runs, could possibly top the 100 mark.
