ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[Swordsoffreedom]

The first ODI match of England vs New Zealand has started and England are batting now. In today's match New Zealand opted to field and England opted to bat and they have already lost 3 wickets. England's batsmen are batting well although they have lost three wickets at the moment but they still have enough wickets in hand. And currently the two batsmen who are at the crease are both batting well especially Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes if they can survive then the team can score well in England. If England can score 270 plus runs in today's match, it will be very difficult for New Zealand to win the match. And England will do well to win today's first match and as England batsmen have scored 165 runs now, they can expect to score more runs in the next round. If England can bat well and improve their performances in today's match then there will be a chance to win the match against New Zealand.

New Zealand won the toss they decided to field but so sad they are not able to benefit much. I can see England lost their first wicket by 80 runs and lost 3 wickets in just 101 runs, hell! !

The problem is after that New Zealand bowler could not bowl well, at the end of 46 overs England lost 4 wickets and collected 257 runs. I think they will probably provide a target of 290/300 runs, so it's really a good enough target to fight. Actually Zealand will not be able to win this match if english bowlers can bowl in a controlled manner. Yes I know their batsmen are in good form so the match suerly will be competitive, both teams have equal chances of winning.

New zealand won the toss and decided to field.  But they are not able to benefit much.  England lost their first wicket by 80 runs and lost 3 wickets in 101 runs . But after that the bowlers of new zealand could not bowl well. At the end of 46 overs,  England lost 4 wickets and collected 257 runs. England team will probably provide a target of 290-300 runs. And it's a good enough target to fight. New zealand will not be able to win this match if England's bowlers can bowl in a controlled manner. However  New zealand's batsmen are in good form. The match will be competitive. Both teams have equal chances of winning.

Your guess is correct. England team has given a target of 292 runs. England collected 291 runs losing 6 wickets. Jos Buttler scored the highest for the team, 72 runs. Dawid Malan, Stokes and Livingstone also collected more than 50. Willy's innings of 21 runs off 11 balls was also quite effective. A collection of 291 runs can be considered as a good collection on this pitch. The pitch cannot be said to be conducive to batting. Bowlers are also getting a lot of benefits from this pitch. So both teams still have a chance to win. New Zealand's batsmen have played very well in the last two matches of the T20 series. If New Zealand can put up a similar performance today, they will win today's match.

Dawid Malan, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler and Liam Livingstone have all contributed well with the batting with average score above 50. 291 runs is certainly a competitive score. This score will not be easy for the New Zealand team. But if they can perform in accordance with the last T20 match then chasing this score is not difficult. Basically, we can make a prediction depending on the position of the opening batsmen. This is the first match of ODI series as England team lost the T20 series so they must plan to do well in this series. However, the New Zealand bowlers could not make much effect on their bowling they got six wickets. In that contrast England's bowling action is relatively good. But they have to wait for their performance on the field.

England played very well, the target of 291 runs is really a very good target. New Zealand only came into the field with the bat so it is still not possible to predict how well they can play. But based on previous England and New Zealand games and today's target, it can be assumed that England are likely to win the match. New Zealand scored only 10 in 3 overs.  Whose run rate is 0.55 and on the other hand England's run rate is 0.97 so New Zealand is still far behind.

I think 291 is a good score by England and the early advantage goes to them in this match. Although the New Zealand team are capable of chasing this total but the team that already has runs on the board, always have an advantage and they can put the opponents under pressure by taking a few quick wickets.

Someone from the New Zealand team needs to play the sort of innings which the England captain played today for his team. He scored quick 72 runs with a strike rate of over 100 runs.

Reserve days are fine if it's happening for all remaining matches, atm it's too distasteful and tbh i won't feel bad even, if reserve day faces a washout.  

Your points are all valid and I agree with everything except for the reserve day getting washed out which would imply next level bad luck.

New Zealand's batsmen have played very well in the last two matches of the T20 series. If New Zealand can put up a similar performance today, they will win today's match.

I feel that England will win this one though it could go right down to the wire. Stokes, Buttler and Liam were brilliant and Ravindra was the only NZ bowler that impressed me. Waiting for Williamson to return soon.

[Out of mind]

England scored 291 runs after 50 overs in their first ODI match. England put in a good batting performance which led to a big score of 291 runs and played well against New Zealand. Today's match will surely ensure victory against England if New Zealand can perform well. New Zealand is batting at this time to reach the target given by England, if they can bat like this then they can definitely reach the target given by England. England's batting performance today is great, their batting is really amazing, they have been batting well since the beginning of the game. If they can score runs so fast, then surely New Zealand batsmen will be able to beat England today. New Zealand have improved their batting performance and bowling performance in their first ODI match, which puts them in a good position, so New Zealand are likely to win today's match.

Tomorrow Bangladesh will face Sri Lanka and it's a match to win for Bangladesh if they want to play final. Even if they can win the match against Sri Lanka, the next match won't be easy for them as the opposition is India. Bangladesh had a couple of close match against India but they never managed to win against them in such tournaments in the recent years.

Mushiqur Rahim expect for a short visit to Bangladesh because they are expecting to have their 2nd child. He might come ack to Bangladesh right after the match against Sri Lanka and then he will go back there. I hope everything will be okay.

I don't think Bangladesh have a real chance this time for qualifying through the cup. For starters even Sri Lanka wouldn't be easy to beat and obviously considering after how Sri Lanka comfortably best Bangladesh in group stages and even Pakistan beat Bangladesh very comfortably. I am looking forward to match for the Sunday which is India vs Pakistan. I wish this one doesn't suffers the fate like the previous match. Both in terms of rain and Indian batting order.

England vs New Zealand in today's match, England has batted and given a target of 291 runs. New Zealand team is now out to bat. New Zealand has scored 42 runs in 7 overs. New Zealand has not lost any wicket so far. Which team will win today's match?  It seems very difficult. If the batsmen of the New Zealand team keep wickets and play, they can win this run very easily. However, if the batsmen of the New Zealand team perform poorly, it will be very difficult for the New Zealand team to win the match.

The England team has provided a target for Descent. Still not sure if they will win. Because New Zealand is batting very well recently. New Zealand's two openers are batting very responsibly in today's match. New Zealand did not lose any wicket in 9 overs and managed to collect 52 runs. New Zealand's batsmen are collecting an average of 6 runs per over. If England can't pick up a few quick wickets then I don't see them winning. Openers Will Young 24 and Devon Conway remain unbeaten with 22 runs. The match is under the control of New Zealand. England used three of their bowlers in these 9 overs. But still not able to take a single wicket.

New Zealand are playing very well and their chances of winning are slowly increasing. New Zealand is not bad at playing cricket.  Compared to England, they are almost as strong a team as England. At the beginning of the game, it is difficult to understand the merits and demerits of any team.  New Zealand's run rate was 0.55 in the first 3 overs but now their run rate is around 1. The way New Zealand are playing I think they are going to win the match. It is true that the target given by England is not small but New Zealand seems to be able to overcome it

At the end of 15 overs, New Zealand collected 82 runs losing only 1 wicket. This is undoubtedly a very good collection. However, England's collection at the end of 15 overs was 81 runs with the loss of 1 wicket. After a good start, England set a target of 292 runs in the end. The way England started their innings, I thought they would set a target of more than 300 in this match. However, Devon Conway remains unbeaten with 39 runs. Will Young remains unbeaten with 29 off 33 balls. The spinners are bowling very well. Adil picked up Rashid Young's wicket. Pace bowlers are not able to make much use of this pitch.

[Insanity]

South Africa Women's Team vs Pakistan Women's Team. In the first match of the ODI series today, South Africa Women batted first and played 50 overs, giving Pakistan Women a target of 293 runs. I never imagined that South Africa women's team could give such a big target to Pakistan in today's match. Today, the batting performance of the South African women's team is no less than that of the male cricketers.

Now the Pakistan Women's team is batting for a target of 293 runs. Pakistan women's batting performance in today's match is very poor. Pakistan Women's team has so far scored 121 runs in 27.3 overs for the loss of 7 wickets. South Africa Women's bowling line-up in today's first ODI match is amazing. South Africa women's team is very dominant throughout today's match. Pakistan Women's team is going to fail by a huge margin against South Africa Women's team in this match

I don't have a problem with reserve days. In general, i support such a move but favoring only 1 match because it has more financial weightage than other matches, even the final. Not a good look IMO.

It's like ACC led by Jay Shah treating Srilanka and Bangladesh as an illegitimate children. Normally PCB does tons of drama but they seem to be on board with the decision because it suits them.

New Zealand batting was already over and I didn't expect that the New Zealand team's performance would be incredible. New Zealand scored 291 runs in 50 overs and lost 6 wickets. The performance of all team batsmen was appreciable because All players except a few had a fantastic performance. Now the Australian team batting lived and they scored 108 runs in 19.2 overs by losing 1 wicket. I think that the performance of both teams great I see the tough match between them. Now let's at the end of the match Who will be the 1 first ODI match?

LIVE play - new zealand @ 1.8 odds

They need  175 runs from 177 balls with 8 wickets in hand

So  far except woakes none of the england bowlers have been economical  and i think this should be a comfortable chase for NZ  from here on out

New Zealand are slowly building their way to victory. They are not in much of a hurry. Since the target is 292 runs. An average of more than 5.5 runs per over now will not be difficult for them to win. England's collection at the end of 26 overs was 131 runs with the loss of three wickets. But the players of New Zealand managed to collect 149 runs with the loss of two wickets. New Zealand must collect 143 runs in 24 overs. 143 runs is not a difficult task for a team like New Zealand if they don't lose quick wickets. Also Conway is batting very responsibly. He remains unbeaten with 65 runs off 76 balls.

[Haunebu]

I don't have a problem with reserve days. In general, i support such a move but favoring only 1 match because it has more financial weightage than other matches, even the final. Not a good look IMO.

Yeah. This is all usual stuff though and viewers will just forget about it as time passes while the ACC will rake in the big bucks laughing their way to the bank. Am not expecting any of this change anytime soon.

They are poised to defeat England comfortably unless they suffer a crazy collapse which most probably won't happen.

[ZAINmalik75]

Anyway in the first ODI, the South Africa team is playing surprisingly well. Sune Luus and Marizanne Kapp both have scored 80+ runs and this at the moment seems to be a match winning partnership.

Yeh absolutely thier performance compared to T20 series were quite impressive as because don't even win a single game while now they are quite pumped and well prepared and partnership of two middle order batter really boost them because due to thier 200 runs partnership they able to put some good number on target board. While during chase thier Bowler also done good job and took important which really push Pakistan under huge pressure and such things work for them because Pakistan lose all of this wicket before 127 runs left.

Kane Williamson will be participating in the ICC Cricket World Cup.

It's quite impressive news for black caps because he is the most important player for them especially in ODI format because his number is ODI format for NewZeland really impressive, so availablity of him will really make thier batting line-up more stronger, it's true that he was off the pitch for long time due to injury so definitely he will little bit off colour at start but later he will be familiar with situation again
