The match starts in a few minutes between Pakistan and Sri Lanka and also toss starts in 5 minutes.

I think you haven't any idea that Pakistan vs Sirilanka schedule tomorrow and you are expecting today, but it's true that it will be deciding match for both of team because winner will be quality for Asia Cup final against India and loser will be eliminated for the tournament, In my view paksitan are awake from long winning streak sleep and now they will be fully focused on the only decider match . No doubt some of quality pacer will be not available but I am quite sure that the new boy will fullfill too paksitan fan expectations. Now the only problem which will Pakistan face that thier main spinner performance were quite bad and currently they have none more quality spinner which utilize the situation completely and book a strong victory for his team

3rd ODI match between England and New Zealand will start in some time. Right now, the series is tied at 1-1, with New Zealand winning the first match and then England winning the second one. New Zealand is suddenly looking competitive, after the inclusion of Trent Boult. But even then, the poor form of other bowlers and the absence of Kane Williamson is dragging them down. During the second match they were bowled out for just 147 runs. Apart from Daryl Mitchell and Will Young, none of the other batsmen managed a score of more than 20.

Sorry, I didn't check the schedule and I thought that today was the match of Pakistan vs Sri Lanka.

NZ started really well thanks to Boult, but England soaked up the pressure brilliantly thanks to Stokes and Malan who are on course to scoring half centuries and maybe even centuries later on.

If this partnership continues for a long time, this game is pretty much over for NZ. They desperately need a wicket now.

Pakistan would have definitely been ahead against Sri Lanka if Pakistan could have fielded their regular team. Ever since it was confirmed that two of Pakistan's regular fast bowlers will not be able to play against Sri Lanka, it seems that Pakistan may not be able to do well against Sri Lanka. Since two key bowlers will be unavailable for the match against Sri Lanka, Pakistan's batsmen must shoulder a big responsibility. Pakistan fans will have a little more faith in captain Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan in particular. If these two batsmen as well as the opening pair can collect a good run then Pakistan's victory against Sri Lanka will not be a difficult equation. However, no matter how well the batsmen bat, the Pakistan cricket team and Pakistan fans will definitely miss two important fast bowlers in the match.

If this partnership continues for a long time, this game is pretty much over for NZ. They desperately need a wicket now.

Even after losing two wickets for just 13 runs, England is batting brilliantly. In 25 overs, the team scored 181 runs, losing 2 wickets. On an average they are collecting 7.5 runs per over. Dawid Malan remained unbeaten on 83 off 75 balls and Ben Stokes on 85 off 61  balls. Looking at the batting of these two batsmen of England, it seems that they want to provide the target of runs. If they can collect 200 runs before 30 overs, and if they don't lose wickets, the England team may be able to provide the target of 400 runs. England's batsmen are playing very fiercely today. In the previous match too, England won by 74 runs. England will maintain this consistency in today's match as well. Moreover, since it is a batting friendly pitch. So England cannot beat New Zealand if they give a target of less than 300.

[Out of mind]

New Zealand vs England 3rd ODI match will be interesting, and both teams will try hard to win. As of the two ODI matches that have been completed, England have won one and New Zealand have won one match. Accordingly, the team that can win today's match will be ahead to win the match, and then they will have a chance to win the series. England batting in today's 3rd ODI match is already having a great batting performance, England batsmen have really captivated the audience with their batting. England's two batsmen Ben Stokes batted brilliantly and scored 96 runs off 70 balls, while Dawid Malan scored 90 runs off 84 balls, which is really impressive. England, have lost two wickets so far in today's match, but the two batsmen currently present may be aiming for a century. England team has collected 200 runs in 27 overs at the moment with the loss of 2 wickets, but if we keep coming today, England may close to 400 runs.

Its true Pakistan are well ahead against Srilanka .Not only Srilanka but also they are now world ranking no.1 team .Cricket always is a game of fun so that any team can beat any team on their day .Srilanka has strong bowling and batting line up they have the ability to beat Pakistan .I am not sure and didn’t notice any news that 1/2 key bowler can't play tomorrow match ,I think they have enough bowler on the line up so it could't be any difference .We have seen how India beaten these strong bowling line up so any team can beat them on their day as i said earlier .India now on the top and they are just waiting for their oponent who would be Srilanka or Pakistan .We may find a final result on tomorrow .Let's see what happen on the tomorrow match.

New Zealand vs England 3rd ODI match will be interesting, and both teams will try hard to win. As of the two ODI matches that have been completed, England have won one and New Zealand have won one match. Accordingly, the team that can win today's match will be ahead to win the match, and then they will have a chance to win the series. England batting in today's 3rd ODI match is already having a great batting performance, England batsmen have really captivated the audience with their batting. England's two batsmen Ben Stokes batted brilliantly and scored 96 runs off 70 balls, while Dawid Malan scored 90 runs off 84 balls, which is really impressive. England, have lost two wickets so far in today's match, but the two batsmen currently present may be aiming for a century. England team has collected 200 runs in 27 overs at the moment with the loss of 2 wickets, but if we keep coming today, England may close to 400 runs.

Won't be surprised if England ends up at somewhere around 400. They are 250/3, with 16.2 overs remaining. It is very much possible that they may end up with a massive total. All the 3 wickets to fall till now were picked up by Trent Boult. Other New Zealand bowlers are looking pathetic. Lockie Ferguson went for 56 runs from his 5 overs, while Rachin Ravindra went for 28 from his 2. Kyle Jamieson continued with his poor form, conceding 47 runs from his 6 overs. And England still has powerful batsmen to come next, including Moeen Ali, Liam Livingstone and Sam Curran.

So England cannot beat New Zealand if they give a target of less than 300.

I also think England's target today is to give a target of more than 400 runs. The batsmen are batting aggressively from the beginning of the innings. They collected 253 runs in 34 overs. Still their average runs are around 7.5 a night. They are playing very well. But I feel bad for Dawid Malan. He failed to score a century for just 4 runs. After collecting 96 runs off 95 balls, he returned to Sajghar. Ben Stokes is still unbeaten with 124 runs off 89 balls. Buttler is also unbeaten with 18 runs off 12 balls. Every batsman in England is batting at a smart strike rate. And if England don't lose any more wickets till 45 overs, they will set a target of more than 400.

South Africa vs Australia match South Africa are batting first innings and they have already scored 224 runs with the loss of 2 wickets. If South Africa can't win in this third ODI match today, it might not be possible for them to win the series. Because South Africa lost against Australia in the previous two matches and if no one can win today's match against South Africa Australia then the ODI series will be lost.

South Africa clinched the 3rd ODI against Australia with a commanding 111-run victory. South Africa stay alive in the series with an impressive win. South Africa posted a formidable 338/6 on the board while batting first, and Australia was bowled out for 227. Notably Australia had a blazing start, scoring 140 runs in just 14 overs in their chase but they lost their second wicket Mitchel Marsh, in the 14th over, with Warner already reaching a quick 50 off 27 balls. Despite their aggressive start, Australia run rate was 6.57 and they couldn't sustain the momentum leading to their downfall in the match.

While Australia were chasing massive target of 339 in first 15 overs they were in complete control and veteran David Warner, Travis Head and captain Mitchell Marsh give Australia impressive start with this mostly were feeling now things are looking easy for them, and they are going to win 6th match of their tour, but suddenly we have magic from the South African bowling which were badly down throughout in this series and give their team first win of this series after losing 3 twenty/20 and 2 ODI matches.

South African top order also done good job and have good partnerships which helps them for having massive target which was important after having worst streak of losing matches against this young Australian side which are here before world cup for their preparation, and they are doing impressive job without their many first choice players which were not available for this series.

400 runs is not a easy task. England playing well but it is very difficult to collect more then 400 runs. they score 290 runs in 38 overs they have 12 more overs to play. maybe they can make a target around 380 runs. it is failure of New zealand Because they bolling badly that's why England are able to collecting such a big runs. there run rate is 1.27 which is a very cool. New zealand maybe will not able to collect such a big run like England. so today England has big chance to win the match

[Sithara007]

LOL.. England looking very solid on their way to a 400 plus total. After 40 overs, they are 307/4. 10 runs per over should give them a total of 407, while 12 runs per over will be 427. Ben Stokes is just hammering the Kiwi bowlers, like they are from a grade-3 club. Everyone has got the stick so far. Even the reliable Trent Boult has gone for close to 6 runs per over. Jamieson, Ferguson and Ravindra are having horrendous economy rates. What has happened to the New Zealand bowlers all of a sudden? They used to have the best pace bowling attack 2-3 years ago.

New zealand maybe will not able to collect such a big run like England. so today England has big chance to win the match

I know it is very difficult to score 400 runs. But if England continues to bat like this, England will collect more than 400. Stokes in particular is batting brilliantly. After 43 overs, England collected 336 runs. Stokes remains unbeaten with 173 runs off 117 balls. If Stokes stays at the crease, scoring 70 runs in the last 7 overs is not a difficult task for a team like England. Stokes also has the likes of Moeen Ali and Sam Curran to support him. So I don't think collecting more than 400 is too difficult.

What a comeback! Ben Stokes has achieved the highest individual score for England in ODIs, scoring 182 runs off 124 balls. He came to bat when Trent Boult was bowling exceptionally well, and England was facing a tough situation. However, Stokes played an outstanding innings and has taken his team to a commanding position. England is on track to set a big total, and they are certainly looking to take the lead in the four-match ODI series tonight.

Bangladesh Team has already been eliminated from the Asia Cup. Mushfiqur Rahim went back to Bangladesh to see his newborn and he does not want to play the last match against India. I was interested to know who is going to replace him. I do not see any other option than Anamul Haque Bijoy. But a news reporter from Bangladesh confirmed several board directors of Bangladesh team wants Naim Sheikh to play the last match against India and Afif hossain get another chance and he will replace Mushfiqur Rahim. As a Bangladeshi, I don't really understand what is wrong with the Bangladesh cricket board. What they want actually? Do you think it's fair to have someone capable in the squad but not giving a chance?

Ben Stokes 182
David Malan 96
Josh Butler 38

In the 3rd ODI match between England and New Zealand, I saw some batting today which was incredible, especially what Ben Stokes showed in today's match is really commendable. If David Malan, Ben Stokes, Josh Buttler, these three batsmen had not performed today, England's team score would not have been 368. However, in today's match, England finally got all out and England got all out with 11 balls to spare. But England is more likely to win today's match if there is no other reason for match over reduction then England's chance of winning is 100%.

Credit goes to Trent Boult for achieving his sixth ODI five-wicket haul! Even though England's batters were putting pressure on all the bowlers, Boult stood out and did his job effectively.
Yes, England has a very good chance of winning. However, England's bowling unit is somewhat ordinary.

3rd ODI match between England and New Zealand will start in some time. Right now, the series is tied at 1-1, with New Zealand winning the first match and then England winning the second one. New Zealand is suddenly looking competitive, after the inclusion of Trent Boult. But even then, the poor form of other bowlers and the absence of Kane Williamson is dragging them down. During the second match they were bowled out for just 147 runs. Apart from Daryl Mitchell and Will Young, none of the other batsmen managed a score of more than 20.

England performance in this was Soo cool. England give a big target to New Zealand team. They managed to score 368 runs in 48.1 overs and then all team out. I think New Zealand team made a wrong decision by choosing to bowl first which proved to be costly for them. Trent Boult's bowling performance was outstanding as he took 5 wickets against the England team. In first over, Trent Boult out England opener Bairstow in 0 runs on just 2 balls. This must have been a big setback for England putting them under pressure. However, England managed to maintain their performance D Malan and B Stokes incredible batting and they successfully scored 368 runs today. So let's see what the performance of New Zealand batting performance they chase down this target or not in today's match.

The way England were batting, it was very difficult for the New Zealand bowlers to stop them before 400. But in the last 10 overs, the New Zealand bowlers bowled brilliantly. They picked up wickets very quickly. After the dismissal of Ben Stokes, the England team managed to collect only 20 runs. They needed to deliver at least over 380 targets. Trent Bould's performance was outstanding. He picked up 5 wickets. Ben Lister also took 3 wickets. However, England set a huge target of 369 runs. As the pitch is batting friendly, New Zealand still has a chance to win. The match will certainly be competitive.
