After scoring 211 runs Indian bowlers are also doing casual stuff which is not helping them and South African openers are doing their job easily which is really frustrating now after 24 overs we have 118 runs without any lost and both openers are already settled which mean we can expect 10 wickets lost as well which could be really embarrassing for them after having impressive win into their first game of this ODI series.

South Africa may not be able to win by 10 wickets as they have already lost one wicket in 152 runs. South Africa is playing very well in the second ODI match against India. South Africa need only 60 runs to win.Maybe in this match South Africa will beat India by a huge margin of nine wickets to settle the series 1-1.
Apart from Lokesh Rahul and Sai Sudarshan, none of the Indian team batted well today.Based on the batting of these two, India scored 211 runs today which is a very small run.

In today's second match of the ODI series against South Africa, India lost all wickets in the first innings game and collected 211 runs and now are bowling in the second innings. The bowling line-up of Indian bowlers in today's match is very bad. They are yet to take any wicket of the South African team in the game of 27 overs. It is a big failure for Indian bowlers. I never imagined that India's bowling side will be so weak in today's match. On the other hand, the two openers of the South African team have been in great form in batting since the beginning. The South African team has collected 129 runs without a wicket after playing 27 overs so far. Looking at the trend of the game, it seems that the Indian team is likely to lose in today's match. I bet for India team in this match. Now if the Indian team loses this match. Then my bet today will go down the drain

South Africa Needs 174 runs in 40 overs to win this match. South Africa scored 39 runs without loss of any wicket in 10 overs. India didn't perform well only manage to scored 211 runs all out in just 46.2 overs. Inda bastmen didn't bat well only Sai Sudharsan batt welled scored 62 runs in 82 balls and KL Rahul scored a fifty runs that helped India to cross 200 runs total. South Africa bowling performance in this match is amazing especially Nandre Burger who picked 3 important wicktes by giving 30 runs in 10 overs.

Kuldeep Yadav and Avesh Khan both have punishment from both openers and new batsman Tony de Zorz is doing good job look like he is going to be second Chris Gayle in coming days with his style but for performance it's never been easy because it needs good time and experience as well.

South Africa are very close to this win against india and level the series. South Africa needs 44 runs in just 98 balls to win this match. South Africa batsman played very well  Hendricks score a fifty 52 runs in 82 balls and Tony de Zorzi scored 90 runs not out in 100 balls, just 10 runs short from his well deserved hundred. India batting and bowling performance in this match very disappointed no bowlers picked any wicket expect arshdeep singh who picked 1 important wicket by giving 28 runs in 8 overs. After winning this match South Africa level the series by 1-1.

India dominated the first match but South Africa dominated today. India is going to lose today's match mainly due to poor performance of Indian batsmen. They lost the opener Gaikwad by just 4 runs. With the help of Sai Sudarsan's 62 and KL Rahul's 56, India set a target of 212 runs. Apart from these two batsmen, no other batsman in the squad can play big innings. A collection of 211 runs is not enough to win on this pitch.

South Africa's top order batsmen are playing very well. Hendricks was dismissed for 52 runs. Tony de Zorzi remains unbeaten with 102 runs. At the end of 37 overs, South Africa collected 187 runs with the loss of just one wicket. South Africa team has to collect only 25 runs in 13 overs.

South Africa Women vs Bangladesh Women

Today these two teams will playe their first ODI match in East London. Almost both teams have equal performance so we can't say anything at this time that who will win today match. Because if we took a look back on the series of T20 matches so we will see that the series is equal with 1-1 and one oof the match abounded due to rain and this have no result. So in that matches they have almost equal. There were a tour match too. Which won by Bangladesh women team. So let's hope again the Bangladesh will try to win the match like they won the tour match.

Bangladesh's team collected 250 runs and i think it’s a very good target to South Africa's team. SA woman team already lost their main 6 batsman to collect only 86 runs in 23.3 overs, now they're under pressure because they need to 165 runs in 26 overs it will be very difficult to collect huge runs even now they have no big wickets so i hope Bangladesh's team will win the match, I predicted 90% win chances to BAN, they will big win today.

It was unimaginable that the Bangladesh women's team would perform so well today. Bangladesh collected 250 runs losing only 3 wickets. It cannot be called a very big target. Because South Africa women's team was much stronger than Bangladesh women's team. But the Bangladeshi bowlers bowled very well in this match. The innings of the South African women's team stopped at just 131 runs. Nahida, Rabeya, Fahima and Sultana all bowled very well. After drawing the T20 series, Bangladesh won the first ODI match. Bangladesh women's team is likely to win the ODI series.

If considering South Africa's Women's team i also agreed that it wasn’t a very big target, but SA team wickets were falling quickly so they lost 3 wickets to collect 50 runs, their top order was totally failed it might be one of the reason they lost by 119 runs against BAN Women's temas. Yeah, i think the bowlers have won this match for the Bangladesh team, African women's team batsmen could not survive on the field due to BAN team's aggressive bowling.

Team India was given a target of only 212 runs. Still I thought the match would be competitive. Because we saw poor performances from the South African batsmen in the previous two matches. The Indian bowlers played well in the previous two matches. But today India's bowlers can't take advantage of that. South Africa collected 130 runs from the opening pair. And South Africa lost their second wicket for 206 runs. Zorzi's responsible batting helped South Africa win. Zorzi was unbeaten on 119 runs.

The first victory for South Africa in the first match of five match series. Sai sadharsan done a great job and captain himself also but rest if the players doesn't play responsible cricket today. Rinku singh is consistent player but today he was not good with the bat. interesting to see Arshdeep batting, better than many top and middle order.. This is not the natural game of India. Every player should have to prove that he could fill the spot of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. bowling from SA side waa too better which restricted team like india on 206.. zorrzi remain not out with the magnificent match winning performance.

[Out of mind]

India vs South Africa in today's second ODI match, batting in the first innings, India collected 211 runs and got all out. In today's match, the Indian team did not bat very well due to which they did not score many runs. But today it can be safely said that South Africa is looking forward to a great win against India and in the end the result will be South Africa win. South Africa's batsman Tony de Zorzi's amazing batting form today led South Africa to win against India. Tony de Zorzi's brilliant batting performance of 122 off 119 runs saw us win a remarkable victory.

[Essential10]

Today was a disappointing performance from the Indians when compared to first ODI performance. But Sudharsan and Rahul showed that it is possible to score runs with application and patience, but the rest of the team failed to follow suit. We saw an amazing bowling spell by young African bowler nandre burger. The African bowlers bowled with discipline to keep the pressure on the Indian batsmen. Batting a target of 212 runs South Africa got off to a great start  Reeza Hendricks dismissed for 52,but Tony de Zorzi's unbeaten innings of 119 saw South Africa win by eight wickets. South Africa returned to level the three-match series 1-1 and the third match will be very interesting for both the teams aiming to win the series.

In 2nd ODI south Africa won toss and bowls first India made 211 for all out in 47th overs Sudharsan and KL rahul make fifties brilliant bowling by Nandre Burger takes 30/3 wickets in 10 overs while maharaj and Hendricks took 2, 2 wickets south Africa chased this target 215/2 in 43 overs Hendricks make 52 while Tony de zorzi match winning century (119) runs help south africa to chase down the target on lost of just 2 wickets from indian side arshdeep and rinku singh could get 1, 1 wicket and easily SA won this match by 8 wickets

[fuguebtc]

In today's second match of the ODI series against South Africa, India lost all wickets in the first innings game and collected 211 runs and now are bowling in the second innings. The bowling line-up of Indian bowlers in today's match is very bad. They are yet to take any wicket of the South African team in the game of 27 overs. It is a big failure for Indian bowlers. I never imagined that India's bowling side will be so weak in today's match. On the other hand, the two openers of the South African team have been in great form in batting since the beginning. The South African team has collected 129 runs without a wicket after playing 27 overs so far. Looking at the trend of the game, it seems that the Indian team is likely to lose in today's match. I bet for India team in this match. Now if the Indian team loses this match. Then my bet today will go down the drain

Yes, India's bowling has let everyone down. Avesh Khan and Arshdeep Singh who had 4 wickets and 5 wickets respectively last match couldn't do much with the ball this match. Kuldeep Singh who had been very economical in the last match also couldn't stop the scoring or get multiple wickets.

But we have to give the credit where it's due. Tony de Zorzi has scored a brilliant century. Their Opening partnership led them to their comfortable victory. It is a huge improvement for their team if we look at their previous match where they were all out for only 116 runs. Last match not many of their players could score double digits but in this match their batting was good.

India's batting also disappointed everyone. 211 runs is not enough to defend. I think they got overconfident and that's what cost them this match. They need to take a lesson from it.

[Nalain420]

South Africa will bat at a target of 212 runs if the South African batsmen can bat well then today's match will be easily won by South Africa. If the Indian team wants to win today's match, they must bowl well. Let's see how well the Indian team can bowl.

This time South Africa bowled very well and bowled out the entire Indian team in 46 overs. India made only 211 run .But this score is too low to win, South Africa has a chance to win this match very easily. Now south Africa has been playing Hendricks and  De Zorzi partnership on pitch. De Zorzi is batting very carefully and has scored 16 runs in 20 ball and Hendricks made 7 run in 20 balls .If talking about bowling side performance of south Africa player Burger and Hendricks play very well Burger took 3 wickets by giving 30 run in 10 overs Hendricks took 2 wickets by giving 34 run in 9 overs .

Both batsmen of Indian team performed very well but the latter only had more fall of wickets. Due to which, despite starting well, the Indian team got all out under the pressure of the wicket towards the last. Both Sudarshan and Rahul scored half-centuries, but the opening batsmen and subsequent batsmen did not perform well. And managed to score 211 runs in the last minute, Nandre Burger has been the best bowling performance of the South African team. He picked up three wickets in ten overs for just 30 runs. South Africa will surely win as the powerplay has yet to see the fall of any wicket.

Today match India batsman played can not very well. Because he could not increase the run and make the tough target for south Africa. Among them, some batsmen played with effort and struggle but most of the batsmen have made the target of the match by playing in a hurry. The South African bowler did well and did not allow the Indian batsmen to score too many runs. And there is a strong hope that their batsmen will play with similar hard work and struggle and win the match.South African team plays better and better than Indian team.  And the match is won. Had the Indian batsman scored 250 plus runs, they would have probably won the match.  But fate could not be with him.If India bowler control the south Africa batsman then he won the match.Otherwise, India loses this match.

India vs South Africa in today's second ODI match, batting in the first innings, India collected 211 runs and got all out. In today's match, the Indian team did not bat very well due to which they did not score many runs. But today it can be safely said that South Africa is looking forward to a great win against India and in the end the result will be South Africa win. South Africa's batsman Tony de Zorzi's amazing batting form today led South Africa to win against India. Tony de Zorzi's brilliant batting performance of 122 off 119 runs saw us win a remarkable victory.

In today game, South Africa team get a chance by winning a toss and they elected bowl first in 2 nd game. India game showed worst effort in today game and they started first by batting lineup. India team scored total 211 runs in 46.2 overs after 46.2 overs entire team of India team dismissed from pitch. T. de Zorzi batsman effort very good in today game because he scored 119 runs in 122 balls with nine 4s and six 6s on pitch. T. de Zorzi was not dismissed from any bowler of Indian team and we know that India team is not a weak in cricket game. Now , both teams won one game each and equal chance to win 3 rd last game and win this series. South Africa won this game by 8 wickets and 45 balls high margin or wickets and balls.

After the first match bravado, it was only fair that Indians failed in every department. 

The likes of Arshdeep and Avesh already took enough wickets in the first match and it's okay to go wicketless in the final match as well lol  . Having said that, this defeat came because the batters looked like a club cricketer. Rutu, Tikal and Sanju are just wasting time, the first 2 will still get a long rope and rightly so because they have a talent and are new in the setup but no one is sure about Sanju.

Both Indian batsmen and bowlers performed very well in the first match. In fact, because of the good performance of the bowlers, it is possible for the batsmen to do well. South Africa was the first team to set a target of 116 runs. It was not difficult for an experienced team like India to win against such a low target. Indian batsmen's performance was not good in today's match. They gave a target of 212 runs. A target of 280+ might have made the match competitive. As the target was low, the South African batsmen also batted very responsibly today. I think South Africa will be able to win the ODI series.

[kro55]

India dominated the first match but South Africa dominated today. India is going to lose today's match mainly due to poor performance of Indian batsmen. They lost the opener Gaikwad by just 4 runs. With the help of Sai Sudarsan's 62 and KL Rahul's 56, India set a target of 212 runs. Apart from these two batsmen, no other batsman in the squad can play big innings. A collection of 211 runs is not enough to win on this pitch.

South Africa's top order batsmen are playing very well. Hendricks was dismissed for 52 runs. Tony de Zorzi remains unbeaten with 102 runs. At the end of 37 overs, South Africa collected 187 runs with the loss of just one wicket. South Africa team has to collect only 25 runs in 13 overs.

The first victory for South Africa in the first match of five match series. Sai sadharsan done a great job and captain himself also but rest if the players doesn't play responsible cricket today. Rinku singh is consistent player but today he was not good with the bat. interesting to see Arshdeep batting, better than many top and middle order.. This is not the natural game of India.

Indian batsmen have performed well in each of the previous matches. But the Indian batsmen's performance in today's match was very poor. Had the pitch been bowling friendly, the match would have been competitive even after a target of 212 runs. But the pitch was not bowling friendly. Even then Indian batsmen could not bat well today. Sai Sudarsan managed to collect the maximum 62 runs today. On the other hand, we have seen bad bowling from the Indian bowlers today. Even if the bowlers did well, the match was likely to be competitive. Bharti captain used 8 of his bowlers today.

I think they were in a relaxed mode and played with a bit overconfidence after winning the first match very easily. I'm not going to blame the bowlers though for today's defeat. Indian players haven't batted well today. As an opener, Ruturaj Gaikwad isn't doing well in the ODI format. Some Indian player plays a lot better in T20I and IPL matches, but their performance isn't good in ODI format as expected.

It was a fast pitch and all the Indian batsman struggled with the bat and the South African bowlers bowled brilliantly and then the pitch might have slowed down eventually, i did not see the entire match after India were struggling to score runs above 200 as it was a done deal to ask the Indian bowlers to defend a small total.

BAN Vs NZ, Second ODI

Bangladesh's systematic top order has proven to be a failure in today's match too. The batting pitch, while Liton Das, Nazmul Hasan Shanto, and Anamul Haque Bijay, these three batsmen failed. Where these three batsmen would take Bangladesh's run score to a big stage, these three batsmen were dismissed for just 14 runs in total. Soumya Sarkar and Tawheed Hriday are trying to lengthen Bangladesh's innings. But if Bangladesh can play the entire 50 overs today, then maybe the run can become 250 runs. And if Bangladesh cannot play an innings of 50 overs, then Bangladesh's run will most likely be below 200 runs.

Unfortunately,Tawhid Hridoy run out...

The South African bowler did well and did not allow the Indian batsmen to score too many runs. And there is a strong hope that their batsmen will play with similar hard work and struggle and win the match.South African team plays better and better than Indian team.  And the match is won. Had the Indian batsman scored 250 plus runs, they would have probably won the match.  But fate could not be with him.If India bowler control the south Africa batsman then he won the match.Otherwise, India loses this match.

I initially predicted in India's favor, but midway through the game I changed my prediction. South Africa showed a slightly different performance at home. When India batted it felt like a complete bowling pitch. Again, when South Africa started batting, the batting performance looked like it was a batting pitch. Even if India had scored 250 runs today, India would not have won this match, South Africa would have won this match. India won the first match by 8 wickets and in the second match India lost to South Africa by 8 wickets. Both teams are tied 1-1 in the 3-match ODI 2023-2024 series. But the team that will do well and win the next match will be sure to win the series. Let's see which team can win the next match with a good performance and secure the series win.
