ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[ZAINmalik75]

haha Sri Lanka's performance makes me smile. Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to bat. And after taking the batting decision and starting the innings badly, it is unimaginable. They lost 6 batsmen to collect 12 runs. I never thought Sri Lanka were a team worthy of the final though. They were very lucky so they won against Pakistan and managed to qualify for the final. However, I don't see any possibility that Sri Lanka will win this match.

It's really shocked each and every fan of cricket because no one expect such results from sirilankan. Like myself and other fan want a both side balance fight and nail-biting match but unfortunately sirilankan side didn't show any resistance although they have dozen of overs but they didn't manage to utilize them properly by making decent runs and reduce as much as possible pressure by holding wickets in hand.
But anyway if sirilankan side has a mind to play such kind of game then they should give opportunity to Pakistan because I believe paksitan will give a tough fight and fan will get huge fun and joy also broadcasters will get handsome money and reapidly increased viewership. Congratulations to India for a champ of Asia cup.

What a shameful performance from Sri Lanka! They have destroyed the fun of the final with their poor batting lineup.

Yeah. They played gully cricket and embarassed themselves. They will never forget this loss.

No one predicted that the Srilankan team would collapse so badly in the finals. A day, that the whole of Sri lankan nation would not like to remember at all.

Such a defeat at home ground in front of jam packed stadium, Sad, isn't ?

Yeah. I felt sad seeing all the Lankan fans in the stadium who had the wind knocked out of them thanks to their players. Siraj's one over where he took 4 wickets sealed the deal for the Indians.

[teosanru]

Overall it was an incredibly dull day for cricket.

We had one final and one series decider but both the fixtures turned into one-sided affairs. Not sure if India would take (except cup) any lessons from this match, Siraj taking 6fer was the only highlight. South Africa on the other hand would take this series win delightfully, considering they lost the first 2 matches and came back strongly.   

All these matches are turning out to be fine warm-up matches before the WC and everyone is trying new combinations and testing their bench strength. From next week we'll have another set of warm up bilateral series between Ind vs Aus, Ban vs NZ and Eng vs Ire. Let's hope no injuries for the main players. We are already seeing a fair amount of injuries in every team.

From India's pov, i'd prefer testing bench strength and surely rest Bumrah, Rohit, Kohli, Hardik, and Siraj for at least 1 match.

Even though we didn't saw a very competitive match of cricket today but I still am impressed with how Indian bowling attach performed. Usually we go to world cups with our batting strength but this time it's our bowling strength which looks amazing. Indian pitches are going to provide much less help for pacers but even then if these guys can move the ball like this it's really going to be hard to beat India.

India vs Sri Lanka match is really funny match. I really can't believe that an ODI match can be like this.  Where Sri Lanka have played very well in previous matches so far, how Sri Lanka lost all wickets for just 50 runs after playing more than 15 overs against India.  And India beat Sri Lanka by scoring 51 runs in just 6 overs. Now it seems that after losing the last match against Bangladesh, India is preparing very hard for the next match. The result of which was seen today he he he

I Think The Asia Cup final was an uninteresting, one-sided contest. India triumphed securing victory with an astounding 10 wickets and an amazing 45 extra overs. Fans of the Sri Lankan team were disappointed by the team poor performance as they fell victim to India potent bowling attack. As the Player of the Match Mohammed Siraj shone thanks to his superb 7-1-21-6 bowling performance. Kuldeep Yadav was justifiably named Player of the Series after he amassed an incredible nine wickets in just four matches securing India victory in this outstanding competition.

What a great match Sri Lanka team lost all the wickets batting first in the Asia Cup final in just 50 runs. Anything can happen in cricket. I don't know if such a match ever took place. However, as far as it seems, no other team has been in such a disaster in any finals. Sri Lankan team is good but I don't know if anyone in the cricket world has seen such an immature style of play. On the other hand, India did not lose any wicket to chase the run. No one expected the final match to turn out like this. Had the game been between India and Pakistan, the picture of the match would not have been like this.

This is not the real match,I had personally think this as the match fixing.Mostly in the Final,the huge money was played in the match fixing.Already we know India is strong team as consider to the Srilanka,So the victory is the confirm one.But the 50 runs in 50 overs is seems like the match fixing,who know the Srilanka players may involved in the match fixing.As we see all the players of the Srilanka had only scored of few runs and Captan duck out is unexpected one on this final.They never take any responsibility after the loss of many wickets.This is not real Srilanka,because as we know Srilanka had played his best in the match against the Pakistan.Total disappointing to the Srilanka fans.

[JunaidAzizi]

I have never seen such a bad performance from SriLanka team as they started from the power play and got all out in just 15.2 two balls. Not being able to score more runs today left the SriLankan fans completely destitute. This kind of performance could never be accepted by SriLankan team fans. India team managed to win easily but Indian team bowling performance was very good. The Sri Lankan team was forced to lose wickets due to bowling pressure alone. SriLankan team came to the final at the last minute and we never expected such a performance. While SriLanka scored a lot of runs in the previous match, the SriLankan team conceded defeat to Siraj in this match as picking up 6 wickets was a good bowling performance for the Indian team.

Well, I was waiting for the final and quit all of my work today just to see the match and get some enjoyment by watching it. I thought the Sri Lankan team (which defeated the Pakistani team and gave a very tough time to Pakistani batsman) would do a great battle and would, never give up easily but when I saw the Sri Lankan batsmen give their wickets one by one so I was very sad that how a team who came to final playing like that. After losing 7 wickets on 37 runs I thought now maybe their batsman would do some and at least they will cross the hundersds but unfortunately, they all are down on 51, Such a shameful performance for the Sri Lankan team. India is a very strong team and they have won the Asia world cup and now they did this.

The final match would have been more crowded and exciting if it had been an India vs Pakistan match. Even if it was a Bangladesh vs India match, the match would have been enjoyable. Sri Lanka's performance was very disappointing. They were very lucky against Pakistan. Otherwise, Sri Lanka could not have qualified for the finals. I never imagined that we will see such a poor performance from Sri Lanka in the final of the Asia Cup. Sri Lanka were very well aware of this pitch, especially since the match was played in Colombo. However, the Sri Lankan team has been in bad shape for a long time. The team lacks experienced players. The performance of the players is very erratic. And the Sri Lankan management is failing to solve this problem for a long time. Hopefully we will see more responsible performances from the Sri Lankan players in the future after such a humiliating defeat.

If the information could be revealed correctly, then various issues might have come up with this match. Such behavior has never been seen before in an ODI match. Match fixing is an easy work at the moment, but because there is no proof of it, there is nothing to do even if it happens in front of our eyes. As a result, there is nothing to do but accept the result. Everyone knew that Sri Lanka would lose against India but no one knew that they would lose all their wickets in just 50 runs. I think the Sri Lankan team handed the trophy to India before they even competed in the conditions of their game. However, these words have no basis. Because emotion and reality are different things. But the way the Indian team is showing their game, they will have full domination in the upcoming World Cup.

South Africa are currently under a lot of pressure with the loss of four wickets. South Africa has performed very well in the past matches but in today's last match the South African team lost wickets heavily. Losing wickets in power plays in ODI matches certainly puts the team under pressure.

South African side make a good comback against a strong opponent in ODI home series and not only tied the series yesterday but won the consecutive three last matches and ODI series too which is really big achievement for them because before a world cup such kind of performance will boost thier moral and motivate them too, so it's true that they lose Quick early on wicket of thier captain but later middle order batter markram fix the situation and score a big bunch of runs later miller, jansen and rest of the player add some decent runs to score board and thus they scored a a quite significant target which easily defended by them with the help of this mistery spinner Maharaj and young guy jansen which really damage Australian lineup before done something significant.

South Africa winning a series always used to be a great task. Most of the time South Africa team used to perform well, and they won't win at the end. This makes me think South Africa to be unlucky to win matches as well as series. Even in this tournament the team made a good comeback, and in today's match I thought somehow Australia will chase the target. Luckily things favoured South Africa and the team have won the series. Marco Jansen's five wicket haul and his 47 runs from 23 balls from the lower order is really great contribution that had helped in the winning of the match.

Well, I was waiting for the final and quit all of my work today just to see the match and get some enjoyment by watching it. I thought the Sri Lankan team (which defeated the Pakistani team and gave a very tough time to Pakistani batsman) would do a great battle and would, never give up easily but when I saw the Sri Lankan batsmen give their wickets one by one so I was very sad that how a team who came to final playing like that. After losing 7 wickets on 37 runs I thought now maybe their batsman would do some and at least they will cross the hundersds but unfortunately, they all are down on 51, Such a shameful performance for the Sri Lankan team. India is a very strong team and they have won the Asia world cup and now they did this.
 

Exactly I was thinking just like you. That if they beat Pakistan so they will give a tough time to Indian team too. But I was wrong and we say in punjabi ( 50 scoran ty e thuss ho gaye). I was not expecting this type of performance from Sri Lankan team. By the way Congratulations to India who won the Asia Cup. According to the performance of Pakistan in the first matches I was expecting that Pakistan will win the Asia Cup but unfortunately I was wrong.

Wow what's going on. I can't believe that Sri Lanka played so badly at their home ground. I was shocked when I saw the score board. I was busy all day today with my personal work so I didn't have time to enjoy this match.
But I expected something better from Sri Lanka. I don't understand what is the problem inside them today, their batsmen could not survive against the Indians.

Or better to say they could not survive against Siraj! I did not watch a single ball of the game because I lost all interest in the Asia Cup and did not place a bet in this match. Moreover, I was on a family tour and almost forgot about the final game. I noticed the score after Magrib Salah when Trickbd telegram posted the update with "Nagin Dance Title" and saw Sri Lanka's 50 and the innings break on the Cricbuzz website. I thought maybe it was due to rain. Then I looked closely with some interest and saw Siraj had destroyed them. Sri Lankan captains said Bangladesh defeated India because their prominent players weren't playing. I guess he was trying to release the pressure!

Congratulations South Africa By winning with a decisive margin of 122 runs and won the series 3-2. Aiden Markram and the middle-order batsmen produced a commanding total of 315/9 despite losing their leader early. Australia was startled by the bowlers, who held them to just 193 runs under the leadership of the mysterious spinner Maharaj and the teenage prodigy Marco Jansen.  Aiden Markram received the Player of the Series award for his consistency, while Marco Jansen received the Player of the Match honor for his all-around excellence. In my opinion for South Africa this victory is a key turning point that will bolster their spirits before the World Cup.

This was an impressive comeback from the SA team from 0-2 down to 3-2 win. It's all about SA's middle order. They are peaking at the right time, just before the World Cup, and they will be a dangerous side looking at the correct form of their players.
Let's hope their bad luck in the ICC World Cup ends this year.

Touring South Africa Australia had a great early performance and whitewashed South Africa in a three-match T20 series to win the T20I series. But despite Australia winning two consecutive matches in the first ODI series, the picture of the series changed in the third ODI match. Set a target of 338 runs to South Africa in the third ODI, Australia were defeated by 111 runs in that match. In the next two matches, South Africa scored over 300 runs in each match, and even though they were trailing 0–2 at the end, they won the next three matches to take the series 3–2 to South Africa. Admiring South Africa, it was truly a remarkable comeback that enabled South Africa to defeat Australia in the series.

What an impressive comeback by South Africa in the series! They were trailing 2-0 but managed to secure a remarkable series victory. It's extraordinary, to say the least. The decision of the Aussie captain to bowl first three times in a row after winning the toss is surprising. Australians didn't perform well, and this should serve as a wake-up call for them, especially considering the upcoming World Cup.

Australia were missing some of their star players to be fair(Steve Smith, Pat Cummins etc) and they experimenting with some players which is why they will be a lot, lot stronger in the World Cup.

Also, they tend to perform really well in big events like the World Cup and they are one of the favorites this time around.

[Shumyl]

I have sad news and I have good news for Pakistan. The sad news is as you know that Naseem Shah is injured that’s why they don’t play some matches in the Asia Cup. Naseem Shah had a shoulder injury so they cannot play in the World Cup 2023 and the doctor of Naseem Shah said that most probably Naseem Shah needs to leave cricket for 1 year at least.

The good news is that M. Amir is coming to play in the World Cup 2023. M. Amir is replacing to Nassem Shah.

The South African team has returned to the ODI series with much strength. After their defeat of the T20 series, they were expected to lose the ODI series as well, but their performances have been promoted. South Africa team win by big margin against Australia in the last three matches. So, we can be very confident that the team won due to their good performance. Some of my favorite players who perform well in the last match. They have been able to score big at the end of the series such as De Kock, Hendricks, Markram. In the 3rd ODI South Africa win by 111 runs, 4th match by 164 and 5th by 122 runs. So we definitely consider that it is a good come back.
