ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[synchronym]

Yes they play very well and work hard and struggle in all matches. Yes you are right because they work hard in all the matches due to which they get very tired.
 Yes, because one match schedule ends, another schedule comes out due to which they cannot get rest.Yes, Virat Kholi, RK Rahul, Rohit Sharma, there are players who have made India proud.

All the players from all the countries we have seen those countries that are qualified were played amazingly. Specially the struggle of South Africa we have seen was amazing and the Team Afghanistan is stepping forwards towards their  better play and that is the reason they are have some good players now. And also if we talk about the Finalist Indian team also played well regarding to their players they hits most sixes as Rohit Sharma is an example for the World.

And finally the winner of the World Cup Australia was too good on their final day at India, but may be they have new players now in the t20 series against India that's why they lost some matches against them.

Those who have batted in the T20 style have scored most of the runs in this World Cup tournament. South African players mostly batted in T20 style which is why they managed to score maximum runs in this World Cup tournament. India has performed brilliantly in their own home field, and the performances of Australia, Afghanistan, and New Zealand have been eye-catching. Each of the stadiums where this World Cup match was held was designed with batting aids to score more runs and make the game more interesting. We have seen them score big runs in this World Cup tournament and we have seen big collections. But in the end, Australia performed better than all the teams due to which they managed to win the World Cup.

There was a time when scoring 300 runs was a dream for every team as 180 to 220 runs was a huge target. During that time bowlers ruled the cricket and it was not very difficult for them to get wickets. With the change of time, a lot of research has been done on wickets to make the game more attractive to people and how wickets can be made to benefit the batsmen and get runs to the batsmen. The wickets in this World Cup were not for the bowlers but the wickets in this World Cup were for the batsmen and the batsmen ruled these wickets. Even after crossing 350 plus runs we saw victory and in another match New Zealand almost got close to 400 in the second innings but still unfortunately New Zealand lost that match. Now maybe such a change is happening in the future we will see more changes and that change might come in favor of the batsmen.

op You are right everything changes over time. Playing cricket is no exception. In the words of our Bangladesh team, they have many records of winning matches even after scoring 250 runs. And now Bangladesh cannot win many matches if they score 300 runs. The stronger the current team is in batting, the better the team is in terms of performance. The match we had with New Zealand vs Pakistan in the 2023 World Cup I saw  match, New Zealand set a target of 400 runs to Pakistan. Unfortunately New Zealand could not win that match. Pakistan won the match due to rain due to rain. After Pakistan won that match, the New Zealand captain said that Pakistan was the favorite team and lucky.

Cricket has become a batsmen's game now. Boundaries have become shorter and new rules for powerplay restrictions and noball has out the bowlers at a disadvantage. When a team scores 400 batting first and then goes on to lose that match, you know how biased this sport has become. And it's not like New Zealand is a weak bowling side. They had exceptional bowlers such as Trent Boult, Tim Southee and Mitchell Santner in their squad. I am not sure whether this is the way for cricket to move forward. I would rather prefer some sort of equilibrium between the batsmen and the bowlers.

I know a lot of people are going to talk trash about me and my opinion, but I honestly think that a big reason why cricket has moved to a certain demographic like this is because of India. Honestly, before India had so much power over the ICC, the rules and everything seemed to actually be in a pretty balanced state. That is also a reason why a lot of great bowlers were being produced by a lot of countries. But now there is no respect for any bowler in this game. Now it is about who is less bad in bowling. And what I am going to say next is not aimed towards India. Because people in general also like to see fours and sixes. Probably that is also a reason why ICC has made so many decisions to actually favour the batsmen in the game.

Yes you are right there was a time when players did a hard performance and reached only 200 around the target but at that time all the teams had the best bowlers who took many wickets and gave the lowest score to them, like Pakistan had Shuaib Akhtar, Shahid Afridi, before them, Imran Khan, Wasim Akram, Srilanka had Malinga and in the same way other teams had also their best players. But now the cricket world is ruled by the batsman they give the highest score and also chase a huge target. A live example in the recent World Cup where Maxwell did 202 runs by himself while he was injured just imagine how a person can do such a big score with an injury. Now cricket is going towards more advanced and in the coming time, I think there will be more speed in the matches and maybe the batsman can cross the 500 targets.

Cricket has bees so fast now, as we can only see show from the batsmen side, but in the past their were bowlers who bowl like a speed of 150kph and we have seen them they have long hairs and when they entered the ground mostly the batters on the ground will be frightened as we can saw that Shoaib Akhter from Pakistan's Team. Not only he there were too many these days, we have also seen Bret Lee when he came to bowling mostly the batsmen will also be in the pressure position. Also Dale Steyn was one of the best bowlers of his era.

But now  we didn't see the charm in the bowlers and we can't see those bowlers who have some long hairs and have some stamina to bowl like what they have to do in the past against different teams. Now we can only see sixes everywhere and runs everywhere.

The match we had with New Zealand vs Pakistan in the 2023 World Cup I saw  match, New Zealand set a target of 400 runs to Pakistan. Unfortunately New Zealand could not win that match. Pakistan won the match due to rain due to rain. After Pakistan won that match, the New Zealand captain said that Pakistan was the favorite team and lucky.

In that match, Pakistan knew it could rain so they played aggressively and won due to luck, afaik just before curtains were put over for rain, Ish Sodhi's over where he gave 20+ runs put match in Pakistan's side, but still were Pakistan to chase full 400 score, they'd have probably lost the game.

I agree with you that cricket has changed Nowadays. At present the focus is more on the batsmen and their ability to hit sixes and score runs. In the past we have bowlers like Shoaib Akhtar Brett Lee and Dale Steyn who were not only fast bowlers but also have a aggressive bowling style. When they on the pitch they mostly pressurized the batsman.

Being a Pakistani we really miss Shoaib Akhtar. He was a good bowler. I remember that match in which he bowled and the batsman was Sourav Ganguly and Shoaib Akhtar Broke the Ribs of him.
By the way we saw in the world cup now the 300 runs are nothing but in the past 300 runs was a big figure. And now 350 to 400 runs target is mostly common.

There are a few bowlers who can clock 150 kmph nowadays. Mark Wood, Mitchell Starc, Jasprit Bumrah, Adam Milne, Lockie Ferguson and Anrich Nortje are a few examples. But Lee and Akhtar during those days went up to 155-160 kmph. And they had better skills and wicket taking abilities when compared to the current generation of fast bowlers. Also, the focus has shifted to T20 cricket from test cricket. That means that the bowlers try to be as economical as possible and they are not willing to risk too much to take the wickets.

Broke his ribs? Are you actually making fun of a cricketer getting hurt badly by another cricketer? If you are, you are messed up in the head. If not, I guess I misunderstood what you wrote.

Also, Akhtar is a legendary bowler for sure, but he did get destroyed by batsmen like Tendulkar etc now and then.

Akhtar, at his peak was almost unplayable. I still remember his first test match against India. That was played at the Eden Gardens in 1999. In the first innings, Akhtar ended up with 4 wickets, including those of Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman. All of them got clean bowled and one of the Indian batsmen told media that it was very difficult to even see the ball when he is bowling. He picked another 4 wickets in the second innings (Rahul Dravid, Nayan Mongia, Anil Kumble and Venkatesh Prasad) to give Pakistan a rare test victory against India in that country.

Shoaib Akhtar was definitely one of the best bowler of his era. But the Team Pakistan didn't support him and the PCB didn't even support him in his last matches that he played in the World Cup. The World Cup that was played I think in 2011 . That was his last one in which he should be supported on the both side even from the team it has and from the PCB. But he was so sad when he was taking retirement from the cricket. Even he was the greatest pacer against the top batsmen. When he mostly came to bowl all the batsmen will be so scary.

You can add Umran Malik in that list because he can clock 155 consistently but not accurate as the legendary names mentioned but we also need to accept the fact the cricket is becoming batting friendly so we may not see such kind of bowling ever again in the history books.

But am I the only one who enjoys the solid defence from Rahul Dravid when balls bowled at him clocking 150kmph?

I mentioned only those who are regular in international cricket. Umran Malik is quick, but then he is not even a regular for his IPL side. Anyway, nowadays very few few of the fast bowlers even try to bowl as quick as they can. The focus is on control, so that the economy rate remains good. Those who didn't did that got replaced, such as Dale Steyn. Another factor that has impacted the fact bowlers is the heavy penalties that are being imposed for slow over rate. Most of the pacers nowadays have shorter run-up, in order to save time.

Cricket is a game where having a time restriction is not good at all. Cause if you restrict the fielding team with time the bowlers are not going to be able to perform well. Because a bowler needs a little bit of time to get ready for the next ball. Especially if he is a fast bowler. Nowadays, I have seen some bowlers, even run back to his mark as soon as he balls his ball. That is definitely not good. But with everything, getting faster and faster, and ICC giving every benefit to the batsmen, this was definitely going to happen. That is also a reason why many teams want to have three spinners in the team. They can move on with the overs quickly. There was a time when the top teams had four fast bowlers in the team. Those days are now past.

Recently india announced their ODI squads for South Africa tour KL Rahul lead the indian team and sanju samson wicket keeper. India changed their most of players who played world cup 2023. Virat kohli, Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Muhammad Shami, Jasprit Bumrah and Muhammad Siraj not included in ODI squad. I think Fast bowlers are big challenge for team India becoz their senior bowlers are not playing. Their main spinners Axar patel, Chahal and kuldeep are in the squad. Their batters are Ruturaj gaikwad, Rinku singh, shreyas iyer, Tilak virma, Rajat Patidar and Sudharsan. lets see this new squad could won series in Africa

I am not sure what can be done for the time restriction. ICC introduced the rule, as the media rights holders were complaining about matches getting delayed and overshooting the allocated timeframe. And obviously when the duration is being considered, the pace bowlers are going to get more when compared to the spinners. And this means that when it comes to selection, the spin bowlers are sometimes selected ahead of pacers, just because they will help the captain to finish overs within the allocated time.

I believe selectors are checking their bench power into this series which is good and now as they have huge pool with good bowlers and all-rounders giving rest to their few main players is also good idea because with these things can go in positive way and youngsters can also take good experience.

These all new batters are doing good job so they deserve chance into this series for the future most chances now after T20i World cup we will have good changes in white-ball format team for the India because now it's good time for looking into future and having all youngsters into their pool as well which will increase their quality and performance they can give tough challenge to South Africa which is having another disappointing end of their campaign into ODI World Cup.

I would use the word rested instead of replaced because these players have been in action for the past few months and they need ample time to recover from the stress and everyone brought back in for the test matches that is where the real game begins.

ODI squad looks good especially Rinku has been given chance if I am not wrong, and hopefully he will seal a spot in the team if he does what he is doing in the Indian pitches on SA pitches too.

I think the problem could easily have been fixed. Remember there are a lot of sponsors for football and a lot of companies are also dying to be the sponsors of big clubs. But if you think about it, football is really not that good of a sport to be the sponsor. Because in theory, football does not have any break. They only have one break of 10 minutes. Other than that it is straight match time throughout the whole 90 minutes. And in cricket, you can have a commercial break after every six balls. so should definitely be more profitable for companies. But the problem is football is played by almost all the countries in the world professionally. And cricket is honestly played by 10 to 12 teams. The other teams are just made out of India and Pakistan players. so if ICC did not have such a problem with promoting cricket to the whole world, I think they wouldn't have been under so much pressure on finishing the match in time.

It is actually good to see that India is taking the health of players seriously, and giving the players rest who are performing consistently for a long time. And this will also create opportunities for other players to show what they are capable of. India has a big pool of talent. A lot of players can go unnoticed even after performing really well.

Remember Ambati Rayudu? I think if India had given him enough chances he could have performed really well for his country. I don't want any good player like him to go unnoticed and the way India is approaching things right now, it looks like that is more unlikely to happen.
