ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

Pathirana and Theekshana do it again along with Shanaka this time around. What would Sri Lanka do without these two splendid bowlers. They won 13 freaking matches on the trot now which is impressive.

The winning streak of Sri Lanka is going to end either against India or against Pakistan. Bangladesh has lost the game for the failure of the top order. Apart from Towhid Hridoy and Mushfiqur Rahim, no batsmen have played an innings which can contribute to the win. Bangladesh has no chance to qualify for the final now. This is quite funny that Bangladesh team management still giving chances to Naim Sheikh even though he is performing badly in every game.

Bangladesh will actually do well in cricket if they bring some structural changes in cricket especially opener position is very important for Bangladesh. Ever since Tamim Iqbal, Bangladesh have been failing to fill the opening slot. Liton Das performed well as an opener for a few days but lately Liton Das' performances have been lacking even though Liton Das has returned from injury. Bangladesh lost today's match against Sri Lanka only because of the failure of the top order batsmen.  
Liton Das, Shakib Al Hasan completely failed in terms of performance in today's match. If the top order batsmen fail then it becomes difficult for the lower order batsmen to win the match.

Even though Bangladesh had a chance to win today's match, Bangladesh lost due to bad batting. Compared to the last few matches, Bangladesh's opening batting was better in today's match. In the last few matches I have seen that Bangladesh's opening batting got out in the power play, but in today's match they batted well until the power play. Mohammad Naim is not performing well, getting out for 21 runs in 46 balls and putt the team under pressure. If Shamim Hossain and Towhid Hridoy both played at the end, Bangladesh would have had a chance to win. Bangladesh lost today's match and got knocked out of the Asia Cup Super Four. Sri Lanka won today's match to make it 15 consecutive matches unbeaten in ODI format, congratulations to the Sri Lankan team.

Bangladesh's batsmen had enough chances to win the match against Sri Lanka but lost due to their poor batting performance. Although in today's match, Bangladesh batsmen had a good batting performance in the beginning and their run rate was increasing well. However, after the fall of the wickets, Bangladesh's batting performance began to deteriorate and the match came to a last minute loss, much to the dismay of the Bangladeshi fans. In today's match Bangladesh batsmen batted well first, but later they lost due to their poor performance however Sri Lanka's bowling line was excellent due to which they beat Bangladesh. And Bangladesh lost today's match and dropped out of the Super Four because if they win their next match against India, they will be eliminated from the Asia Cup.

I expected a better performance in this year's Asia Cup. Because we saw a good performance from the Bangladesh team before the start of the Asia Cup. But this team's performance in the Asia Cup was very poor. Only one of the four matches performed well. The target was not very big in today's match. The performance of Bangladesh's opening pair was also quite good. But the performance of the middle order players was not good. If Shakib and Liton had performed well, maybe the result of the match would have been in favor of Bangladesh. The performance of these two important batsmen of Bangladesh was poor. However, I don't expect much from this team in the World Cup as well. It seems that this team will be eliminated from the group stage.

I agree with you that only those teams will be tough opponents for he Sri Lanka team. The team Sri Lanka is showing a winning spirit and almost every team has lost games against them. I'm quite sure that team Pakistan will be a tough team for team Sri Lanka but still the Sri Lankan team has shown the intense winning spirit this time and I'm sure that the match will be a tough one for Pakistani team as well.

The Indian team is another tough team for team Sri Lanka and surely it will be hard for Sri Lanka to win against team India but still I would say that the match will be tough for team India as well. Team Bangladesh lost the match and it was really a horrible performance by the Bangladesh team but we can't say anything because they were playing against Sri Lanka team and losing was in their fate this time.

Team Bangladesh lost the match and it was really a horrible performance by the Bangladesh team but we can't say anything because they were playing against Sri Lanka team and losing was in their fate this time.

Everything will be dependent upon the match tomorrow now, if India wins tomorrow I'll say India and Sri Lanka have a good chance of qualifying while if Pakistan wins tomorrow I'll say it's Pakistan and Sri Lanka which have a higher chance of qualifying. Bangladesh's performance was really very much expected. They are really not playing their best game in this tournament.

Australia team is dominating the series. In the first ODI South Africa team got an opportunity, but they weren't able to make it a winning match as the bottom order built a good partnership which isn't expected. In this match from the beginning of the match the Australia team performance is much on fast scoring. David Warner gave good start and had a century (106 runs) along with Travis head scoring 64 runs. Further good contribution came from Labuschagne(124 runs) and Inglis(50 runs). In the Chase South Africa kept losing wickets as they had high pressure as well as the target is big. First two matches won by Australia and near to winning the series.

Australian team rocking their tour to South Africa,South Africa was the strongest team.The Australia had won all the 3 T20 matches in the recent days,this show the way of Australia in the tour to the South Africa.In the first ODI,South Africa had scored 222 runs.Which is less than the Bangladesh against the Sri Lanka.Bangladesh score of 236 was the good against the Sri Lanka in the recent matches.So the South Africa should improve their game against the Australia to avoid of complete loss of the series.

Australia De ranks Pakistan from the top and reclaims their No.1 ODI team ranking. Now Australia is the No. 1 ODI New Team after defeating South Africa 2 ODI in a row. Australia is a very balanced team they have the best batsmen like Labuschagne who scored a Century in 2nd Odi, David Warner also played a beautiful hundred and Travis Hear scored a half century reaching Australia total to 392 such a huge target for any team.

Australia bowling is also top class like Adam Zampa who picked 4 wickets by just giving 48 runs in 9 overs and Nathan Ellis also picked 2 wickets by giving 32 runs in 8 overs and all out South Africa in 269 runs win the match by a huge margin and it is a huge victory for Australia.

The biggest reason that Bangladesh lost in my opinion is because Shakib didn't perform on the day that his team needed him the most.

The team needed performance from the most top-order batters. Liton Das recently recovered from Injury and came back to the Asia Cup. But he did not perform yet. Opner Naim Sheikh Played all the matches, and this guy could not perform either. Shamim Patwary and Afif Hossain were given a chance because they could score quick runs. They did not play well either.

Their top-order batters need to be more responsible. Bangladesh had better options but we all know that there are some kind of grouping in the team. Which is why some players were over looked and did not get a chance to play a single game.

Bangladesh's performance was really very much expected. They are really not playing their best game in this tournament.

There can be a Pakistan India final too and let this happen as we never had a final between these two countries in the Asia Cup. That is really strange as both are the strongest teams among others and they should have met in the finals of Asia Cup more often.


Since the World Cup is near, there is a prediction pool {ODI World Cup 2023 Prediction Pool🏆} & Discussion Thread, the entry fee of this pool is 1mbtc and Royse777 will also contribute as a sponsor and escrow of the event. But i see very little interest this time as compared to previous prediction pools held on this forum.

Any reasons for this   or maybe the members aren't aware of that thread?

This is my personal view all members are aware about this but mostly are not interested which is wired because I watch in last IPL pool which was organized by you many regular members were not take part which was wired so again same thing happening even still we have 25 days and Most chances we will have nearly 5 to 7 members but look like priorities are completely changed recently.

I can't figure out the exact reason for this lack of participation by the members.

Well, the last when I participated the entry was free (in IPL Pool) and this time there is an entry fee, so maybe this is a reason why members are reluctant to join the pool. Don't know the exact reason but it seems that such pools are not trending at all in our forum and no one is keen to take part in such pools.

[Patrol69]

The current position of match is that Bangladesh got 236 runs in 48 overs and Nine players are out. They need 22 runs in 12 ball so the match is very tough.

There is a great chance for Sri Lanka to win the match Nine players of Bangladesh are out and this one wicket can be taken any time. In todays match saqib ul hassan did not play well and out by getting only 3 runs.

Towhid Hridoy's best efforts at the end failed to lead the team to victory. If the rest of the team could support Towhid Hridoy then Bangladesh could have won this match. After the dismissal of Towhid Hridoy, the number nine and number 10 batsmen tried hard to get the team to win but ultimately they failed to win the team and Bangladesh came very close to winning against Sri Lanka and lost. In big tournaments like Asia Cup, Bangladesh has announced the team with some new players.

Bangladesh did not evaluate the experience, if some experienced players were in the squad then the performance of Bangladesh would have been much better than the current squad. 

It doesn't matter that Bangladesh lost one match after another in the Asia Cup because Bangladesh will learn from this match and use it in the next match which may never come for Bangladesh.

I partially agreed with your opinion because in past we have few pools with high fees as well and right now we also have few pools running with very high fees but mostly are in soccer so just because of this too many participants are around there but here we are having conflicts of interest so just because of this mostly not participating in these pools.

This pool having fees of 0.0025 and still have 40+ members its not all about fees mate.

The main reason of Bangladesh loss against Sirlinka was that he fell off the wickets of Bangladesh batter Mohammad Naim played a test inning with 21 runs in 46 balls and Liton Das didn't perform well 15 runs in 24 balls. Shakib Al Hasan captain of the Bangladesh team only scored 3 runs in 7 balls. Only Bangladeshi batter Towhid Hridoy played a fighting inning of 82 runs in 97 balls unfortunately missed his well deserved century by 18 runs. After the wickets fell of Towhid Hridoy Bangladesh lost the match just 21 runs short of chasing down the target. Mahesh Theekshana picked 3 wickets including Hridoy wicket and helped to win the match for his team. Today Super Four Asia Cup match is between India and Pakistan.

I think Anamul Haque should have been given a chance. But Bangladesh management did not give chance to Anamul Haque even in one match. Naeem's performance as an opener was very bad. Miraj's batting was more responsible than Naeem's. Mirage is not really an opener. He usually bats in the 6/7 position. Even then he played well enough in the opening. Towhid Hridoy played well only in yesterday's match. Also he could not score a run in any match. Shamim's performance is weaker. The performances of all the young talents in the team have been poor. This is why Bangladesh failed in the Asia Cup.

Although the batsmen of Bangladesh did not do well, the performance of the bowlers of Bangladesh impressed me. Bangladesh have improved their pace bowling tremendously. Taskin, Shariful and Hasan all bowled brilliantly. If the performance of the batsmen along with the bowlers is regular, the team can do well in the next World Cup.

It's a combination of several reasons basically. Some people lost interest in such pools because of constantly losing while some others aren't willing to take any risks with their money. Also, some people have no idea about them.

Superb marketing could help attract more participants from different corners of the forum.

The biggest match starts in a few hours, Pakistan vs India. The people are so excited about this match, until not the final. If the rain comes so ACC decides to give a reserve day on 11th September. This is good but the rain prediction is also on the 10th and 11th of September, This is so bad. Anyways, Jasprit Bumrah playing today's match. But, Pakistan also had Baber Azam.
