Pakistan team is in the best position right now. Because they are almost at the end of the match by protecting the wicket. However, Pakistan's victory depends on these two batsmen, Rizwan and Saud Shakeel, who are currently batting. Because I can see that if Pakistan wins today's match then Shafique, Rizwan and Saud Shakeel will have the most role. As today's game Sri Lanka team gave Pakistan a big score of runs. This target is the most difficult to achieve but Pakistan team players are patient due to which they are close to winning the match so far. Right now Pakistan team can win 37 runs from 33 balls.

First Abdullah Shafique and then Mohammad Rizwan snatched the victory from the Srilankan team. Who would have thought that an unpredictable team with unpredictable batting can chase this much score?

The Srilankan bowling line completely failed against the Pakistan batsmen and Mohammad Rizwan played a remarkable innings, even though he was getting unfit at the end of the innings but still continued to play for his team.

The below scorecard will tell you all,

At one point, it didn't look like Pakistan would win the match so easily .The Pakistani team showed excellent performance in chasing Sri Lanka target of 345 runs and won the match by six wickets.Pakistan opening partnership failed as usual, but the replacement of Fakhar Zaman by Abdullah Shafiq, and his brilliant performance can surely play a major role in the opening problem in the upcoming matches.The captain failed once again today and did not perform well but Mohammad Rizwan as always supported the team and played an important role in winning the match.After losing the second wicket for 37 runs, the target of 345 runs was not looking easy,but the brilliant partnership of 176 runs made the win easy.I think there is no reason why the Sri Lankan bowlers failed in this win, because the Pakistani bowlers also failed completely against the Sri Lankan batsmen.

Pakistan has successfully chased down the biggest total in the history of ODI World Cups against Sri Lanka in Hyderabad. Pakistan achieved the target of 345 runs in 48.2 overs. Mohammad Rizwan scored 131, while Abdullah Shafique contributed with an impressive 113 runs as prominent batsmen. This is now the highest successful run chase in the 48 years of World Cup history.Pakistan was 37 runs in loss of 2 wickets, to chasing 345 runs and Mohamed Rizwan smashed 131 runs unbeaten from 121 balls. It's a knock for the ages in World Cup history. Mohammed Rizwan won the Player of the match award for his amazing hundred. Two wins for Pakistan in the first 2 matches of world cup as they have moved to second place in the points table. New Zealand still remains at the top with a better Net Run Rate.

England won the match with Bangladesh by 137 runs, it is very sad for Bangladesh. Shakib Al Hasan played very badly today.  He is an all-rounder player who can be seen playing very well but at times he plays so badly that it is unimaginable. Because of Shakib Al Hasan, Bangladesh often lost matches. as he is an all-rounder Player, that is not expected from him. England played very well in this match, the target of 364 runs was not a bad score

In fact, in today's match, not only the batting performance of Shakib Al Hasan, except for two or three batsmen, the batting performance of almost everyone was very bad today.In fact, in today's match, not only the batting performance of Shakib Al Hasan, except for two or three batsmen, the batting performance of almost everyone was very bad today. Mehdi Miraj, who had a good performance in the previous match, also played poorly in this match, although he took four wickets in the bowling line-up but also gave away a lot of runs. As Bangladesh's batting performance was bad in today's match, their bowling performance was even worse, although it was normal that the batsmen would get a different favor on the pitch played today, but today they suffered a loss due to Bangladesh's overall poor performance. Anyway, I hope they don't lose confidence and do well in the upcoming matches even though there are bigger and stronger opponents ahead.

Pakistan made a history today by chasing highest target in ODI history and this is Pakistan 8th consecutive win against Sri Lanka in ODI world cup. Pakistan have low probability when Sri Lanka gave a target of 345 runs. The best thing that worked today for Pakistan is replacement of Fakhar Zaman with Asad Shafique.
In the next game, Pakistan should also try to replace Shadab with next available option. Pakistan next match is with India and they haven't wont won any game against India in ODI WC.

Pakistan really surprised everyone and chased the historic runs chase which will really boost their moral and confidence for the next big match against India at Ahmedabad, no doubt it's totally flat pitch but they way the two guy dragged the inning from bottom to top was phenomenal because when you lose two of your best batter at really early stage, and you have such a mountain like target then it's really difficult to come back and fulfil the team needs without any hesitation and damage.
I think management should give more early chances to Shafiq rather than Fakhar because Fakhar is completely out of form from long time while shafiq is absolutely talented diamond and has ability to lead Pakistan out form and damage top order

First of all I will say that England lost their first match, so I was sure that this team will win against Bangladesh either way. And the way England batted from the beginning of the innings, they had the possibility of 400+ runs. But in the last 10 overs, the bowling of Bangladesh's bowlers was very controlled. Due to controlled bowling England team could not collect 400.
Bangladesh's poor batting performance is nothing new. The main problem of this team is the erratic performance of their batsmen. We saw the same thing against England. Without Liton, Bangladesh's top order batsmen could never do well. Bangladesh's next match is against New Zealand. Hope we will see better performance from Bangladesh in this match.

This is their largest target chase, earlier it was against Ireland. The best performance was from Rizwan who played an excellent game out of the pain in the leg muscles. He understood that the match is going good, and walking to the pavilion as retired hurt might affect the match. Sri Lanka played really well, but they weren't able to defend as the bowling unit isn't good enough. We encountered the same in the previous match where South Africa scored 400+ runs.

Earlier, Ireland had won by chasing the highest run target against England. But Pakistan broke their record in this World Cup to win by a target of 345 runs, which is now the highest run chase in the history of Cricket World Cup. Sri Lanka batted first and made 344 for the loss of 9 wickets. Pakistan went down to bat for the win and scored 345 runs for the loss of 4 wickets and won by 6 wickets. Pakistan's first two wickets fell very early, I thought Pakistan might lose today. But the excellent batting of Mohammad Rizwan and Abdullah Shafique led the team towards victory. Sri Lanka couldn't bowl well that's why they couldn't win today even with a huge target. Congratulations to the Pakistan team for chasing a huge target and winning.

[Sithara007]

Pakistan is at the second place in points table, after two consecutive wins. They won their first match against the Netherlands, and now they won against Sri Lanka as well. A few months back, they were one of the favorites to win the world cup. But a pathetic performance in the Asia Cup lowered their odds for world cup. I am OK with their batting as of now. But the bowling still needs a lot of improvement. Shaheen Shah Afridi, Hasan Ali and Haris Rauf are leaking too many runs and spinners like Shadab Khan are not managing to get wickets. The absence of Naseem is pretty obvious.

Bangladesh vs England

After winning the first match of the World Cup with Afghanistan, Bangladesh cricket team Tigers started the World Cup mission with a bang. World champion England is playing Bangladesh again today. Captain Shakib Al Hasan won the toss and decided to bowl first with England for the second time at this stadium in Dharamshala. England came to bat at the request of Shakib Al Hasan. England went into bat and collected 49 runs without losing any wicket in 8 overs. If the batting continues like this, England can put Bangladesh in a very difficult moment. In other words, England can score 350+ if they bat like this, I think it will be very difficult for Bangladesh to score 350+. Want to predict the future, can Bangladesh beat England and win the second match of the World Cup today?

Bangladesh make a bad decision they should bat first because it's full batting support pitch and they can make a handsome target at bat first without any pressure and later through his quality bawler they defend they required target. Anyway England are much better team than Bangladesh in white ball format so it's oky because they deserve it now Bangladesh should focus on next matches because they just need 5 more victory to qualify for next stage of the competition.
Anyway they can restrict England at small target if they broke the momentum set by malan and his partner, which may be I think the turning point of match while due to bad start and quick early on dismissal really push them down and that why they unable to match the required run rate which cause them a defeat

There was no mistake in Bangladesh's decision but their mistake was in their performance. Most of the matches that have been played in Dharamsala so far have been won by batting in the second innings and the average score per innings at Dharamsala is around 230 to 240 where England have scored 360 plus runs which is why Bangladesh have not been successful in chasing such a big margin.

In the first 8 matches in the World Cup tournament, most of the matches were won by all the teams batting in the second innings. Basically, Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan wanted to take this opportunity. Had Bangladesh bowled in a controlled manner early on and if they had not lost four early wickets in the second innings, this match could have been much closer. Best wishes for Bangladesh's next match.

Pakistan bowling was predicted to be the best among the participating teams. Everything is against the prediction and not much of improvement happening with bowlers. Indian pitches are batting supportive and this will be additional pressure for the bowlers. Naseem Shah's absence is a big setback to the team. The replacement Hasan Ali had performed good taking 4 wickets, but the economy is not the best. In the match against Sri Lanka, the final 10 overs were under control, if not score could've reached atleast 370 runs which could've been pressure for Pakistan batting.

Yes, you are write if they can't control them in the first 10 overs they would never win this match but seems like they were ready even for the 400 target just look to them winning the match by 6 wickets and 10 balls likely 2 overs before they over the match. If baber azam had not out through the catch they would have won that match very early but somehow the lost their captain's wicket they didn't panic and showed the best performance in which the two players Rizwan and Abdullah a massive scored 131 and 113 which shows that they were ready for this before coming to the ground. Warm wishes to the Pakistani team and to those who support the Pakistan team.

India's second match today. They will be playing against Afghanistan, at the Feroz Shah Kotla ground in Delhi. Afghanistan is currently at 9th position in points table, and with the spinners (Rashid Khan and Mujeeb Ur Rahman) completely out of form, I don't think that they stand a chance against India. I am curious to know whether Suryakumar Yadav will be included in the playing XI for today's match. In that case, Shreyas Iyer will be warming the bench. There should be no other changes, with Bumrah-Siraj-Pandya leading the pace attack and Jadeja-Ashwin-Kuldeep handling the spin department.

Afghanistan's innings depends a lot on the opening partnership. If the opening pair can do well then they can bat till 50 but if the opening pair is out early then it is not possible for them to bat 50 overs. Afghanistan will not be able to survive against India for long with India's bowling lineup. India is undoubtedly going to win this match. If India win the toss in this match then they will choose to field first. If it is said to bet against both then India will be worst and very few people can bet on Afghanistan that too for very less amount of money. If India win this match, they might move to the second position in the points table as they defeated Australia by a big margin in the first match.

When Captain Babar and Imam couldn't perform, rebuilding the innings was a challenge. However, Rizwan and Abdullah stepped up and did a great job. Rizwan, despite the pain, played a remarkable innings and ensured victory by staying on the crease till the end. It's important to have clear plans and goals in such situations. Fortunately, Rizwan got support from Abdullah. Sri Lanka can only blame themselves for this defeat as neither their bowling nor their fielding was up to the mark.

Lol. These are all silly excuses frankly speaking. They lost by 137 runs which implies that they were decimated by England in more ways than one. Excluding Shakib and Mustafizur, all of their bowlers keep bowling like crap.

None of their batsmen are consistent either. These two reasons are primarily why they keep losing again and again against big teams.

If I want to say for Pakistan then I must say Pakistani players have more endurance. Rizwan He was standing at the crease with his pain. So here it should be understood how many cricket lovers can stand on the field in such a condition. This shows the endurance of the Pakistani players which I am a little less hopeful than the unique players. The big score given by the Sri Lankan team seemed impossible for the Pakistani side at the start of the game but was more surprised when the wickets started to fall. But then Shafique and Rizwan played the most important role to ensure victory for Pakistan team as they both scored centuries under great pressure.

Had Bangladesh bowled in a controlled manner early on and if they had not lost four early wickets in the second innings, this match could have been much closer. Best wishes for Bangladesh's next match.

The team structure of the Bangladesh team is basically loneliness. Because Bangladesh could not play the entire match on its own this season is the most painful. Because they often perform poorly against big teams, but they are happy to win against normal teams. The players of Bangladesh have absolutely no patience because they have been losing wickets since the beginning of the game. I didn't like the team formation at all due to which Bangladesh got this result. Because leaving out the experienced players and adding new players to the national team squad is the biggest mistake.

I agree with you, Bangladesh cricket team has suffered a massive collapse due to the addition of new players by removing the skilled old players of the Bangladesh team. As good a performance as can be expected from an accomplished old player. That performance is never expected from a new player. Cricket pundits of Bangladesh team think that new players can bring better success than an old player. The pundits of Bangladesh cricket team never want to accept the fact that the Bangladesh cricket team is going towards decline due to the exclusion of old skilled players. I think Bangladesh cricket has been engulfed by corruption. In the current situation of Bangladesh cricket pundits, it seems that the Bangladesh cricket team will never be able to turn around again
