Bangladesh struggled to post a competitive score in the second ODI, with Soumya Sarkar scoring his third century in ODIs with a brilliant performance of 169 runs. Despite being dropped three times by the New Zealand fielders, he capitalized on the opportunities. Duffy, on the other hand, was the standout bowler for New Zealand with 3 wickets and bowled a powerful last over to O'Rourke to claim three wickets. It will be interesting to see if the Bangladesh bowlers can restrict New Zealand to 291 runs or if New Zealand can successfully chase down the target and win the series today.

Bangladesh VS New Zealand

Bangladesh has played their turn and made 291 runs in 49.5 overs. There is the man who really deserves appreciating words he is Soumya Sarkar. He really played well and if Bangladesh will win this match so credit will go to this person. He made 169 runs. Other plyaers were not standing with him. If they also make good partnership so I am sure about the Bangladesh could easily go above 350 runs.
Well, New Zealand has started its turn and made 30 runs without any lost of wicket in 6 overs. Rachin Ravindra and Will Young are playing at this time if this Partnership will remain on the pitch till 150+ runs so I think New Zealand can win this match.

Soumya Sarkar may gift a victory to Bangladesh today. But the interesting thing is that he hardly got any support from the other batsmen. Apart from his 169, the next top score was 45 from the no.6 batsman Mushfiqur Rahim. And it's not like the New Zealand bowlers were wayward. They bowled with tight line and length, especially Adam Milne, Jacob Duffy and William O’Rourke. Adithya Ashok, on his ODI debut did a decent job as well. Still, a Bangladesh win is not confirmed yet. The pitch looks good for batting.

This is a common image of Bangladesh in general. When a batsman bats well, if another batsman can provide good support, then the team score is likely to be bigger. Only Soumya Sarkar played an innings of 169 runs in this match but then not a single batsman could help him in such a partnership. This can be seen as the consistent failure of Bangladesh's top order batsmen.

But one thing was better if Bangladesh could have won today's match then Soumya Sarkar's innings of 169 runs would have been the best match of her career. But New Zealand's innings got off to a good start as they have already scored 90 runs for the loss of one wicket. Although Bangladesh's target of 292 is not bad, this target is not a difficult target for New Zealand at the New Zealand venue.

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.

The opening pair of South Africa's batsmen performed very well, due to which the pressure on the wicket was reduced later on. But Tony de Zorzi stayed in the field from opening batsman till the end, and Tony de Zorzi scored 119 runs from 122 balls not out. This young batsman played the biggest role for the victory of the South African team. But the bowling of the Indian team could not get this young batsman out of the South African team.

Despite Soumyo Sarker's massive collection of 169, Bangladesh failed to give away the 300+ target. I do not see any improvement in Bangladesh's batting order. Soumyo played well today. But Bangladesh's top order is weak as usual. Anamul Haque 2, Shanto and Liton returned to the dressing room with 6 runs each. If these 3 experienced top order batsmen could bat well, Bangladesh could have given a target of more than 350 in today's match. I don't think 291 is enough to beat New Zealand.

Bangladesh team has given descent target of 292 runs. But considering the pitch it is not enough. Bangladesh team needed to collect 40-50 more runs. It seems that the New Zealand team is going to get an easy win in today's match.
New Zealand collected 111 runs after 18 overs. New Zealand's average collection is more than 6 per over. And New Zealand lost just one wicket. If the Bangladeshi bowlers cannot take 3/4 wickets before 30 overs then there is no chance for Bangladesh to win. New Zealand will win very easily with a target of 292 runs.

[Sithara007]

Well... as of now it looks like New Zealand is having the upper hand. They have lost just one wicket (that of Rachin Ravindra) and they have raced to 100+ in less than 18 overs. After the initial fireworks from Rachin, now Will Young and Henry Nicholls are batting at brisk pace. Unless Bangladesh can get one or two quick wickets in the next few overs, the match will rapidly slip out of their control. And I don't know why the Bangladesh captain is sticking with pacers such as Tanzim Hasan Sakib. He needs to have spin from both the ends.

[libert19]

#INDvsSA: Not Ruturaj's days in these odis, failed in batting and dropped catch too. Tilak Verma's position should be given to someone else honestly, he has been given so many opportunities in t20s and these odis, nothing substantial yet.

Bangladesh teams top orders are always failing to collect good start, it’s their common weakness for the long time. Yeah, only 2 batsman taken good runs Soumyo Sarkar 169 (151) & Musfiqur Rahim 45 (57), it was surprised to BAN team Soumyo got century after 5 years it’s a brilliant come back. Without top orders batsmans runs they will never reach 300 runs, so it’s not a fighting scored to New Zealand, they will win because they have strong batting line up.

Bangladesh vs New Zealand in the second ODI, Bangladesh set a target of 291 runs to New Zealand. Soumya Sarkar scored a century after five long years. Soumya Sarkar played very well today Soumya Sarkar scored 169 runs off 151 balls. After Bangladesh batted so well today, they may not be able to win this match today. Because New Zealand is batting brilliantly. New Zealand need 38 runs from 60 balls.

Every New Zealand batsman is batting well, especially Will Young (89), Rachin Ravindra (45), Henry Nicholls (95), Tom Latham (22*) none of them bats badly. However, except Soumya Sarkar and Mushfiqur Rahim of Bangladesh, none of the remaining 9 batsmen have collected good runs from the bat. So how will Bangladesh perform well as a team? The top order batsmen in the Bangladesh squad need to be given temporary rest at times so that they can prepare themselves and perform well in the next matches.

Soumya Sarkar of Bangladesh team performed well enough, but the next batsmen could not support him. Soumya Sarkar scored 169 runs off 151 balls, but the fall of three wickets in the power play meant that the reverse batsmen could not stay on the field for long. But the New Zealand team has performed better than the Bangladesh team, the New Zealand team has so far scored 266 runs in 42 overs for just 3 wickets. The batsmen of the New Zealand team, starting from the opening, out of three consecutive batsmen, two batsmen have been out on the way to a century. The New Zealand team will definitely win in a short time.

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.

Sanju Samson is trying his level best to cement his position in the Indian team by not playing good cricket. India has enough wicket-keepers/batters for themselves and they can rotate these guys but players like Samson are not worth getting selected. It is only the fans of Samson that are trying their level best to get him a confirmed slot whereas he is not bothered at all. I felt that Iyer should have been in the team yesterday and it is okay to not take wickets once in a while but it is not okay to leak runs like Avesh Khan did in the match. Why he gets a slot is questionable when we can see he is not good for any format of cricket.

Bangladesh team failed to win today's match due to lack of experienced bowlers in the squad. Maybe Bangladesh would not have been defeated today if they had better performance from the bowlers. Bangladeshi bowlers have managed to take only 3 wickets of New Zealand. Bangladesh did not have any experienced bowlers in the squad. At the same time two Bangladeshi bowlers Hasan Mahmud and Sakib gave a lot of runs. Apart from Miraz and Shoriful, none of the bowlers controlled their bowling. Bangladesh has already lost the series. Waiting to see if Bangladesh can make a comeback in the third match.

[Fuso.hp]

The management and selectors have been under a lot of pressure due to the inclusion of Soumya Sarkar and repeated chances, but the selectors have put their faith in Soumya Sarkar and Soumya Sarkar fully repaid the faith in the second ODI against New Zealand. Soumya Sarkar played a brilliant innings of 169 runs against New Zealand which is the second highest individual score in ODI cricket for Bangladesh. Soumya Sarkar's innings of 169 runs defeated Bangladesh on the day but one of the biggest takeaways for the fans is Soumya Sarkar's return to form after a long time. Although Bangladesh lost the match, Soumya Sarkar was awarded the Man of the Match for his brilliant innings. Congratulations Soumya Sarkar and congratulations to New Zealand Cricket.

Mostly the player of the match chose from the winner team but today we saw that the player of the match is Soumya Sarkar. He played really well. He needs the Bangladeshi player with him on pitch but no one of them who make partnership with him.
New Zealand played wisely and won the match. They have remained one Match of the series and New Zealand already won the two matches. It means New Zealand has won the series now. And now series is 2-0. Bangladesh will try to win the last match to avoid from 0 winning match of this series.

2nd ODI, Bangladesh tour of New Zealand. We watched the performance of Soumya Sarkar. His performance became unbelievable. His outstanding score is 169 from 151 balls including 2 sixes and 22 fours. If his best performance the match was beaten by New Zealand's all of the top order batsmen named Will Young  (89), Rachin Ravindra (45), Henry Nicholls (95), Tom Latham (34), and Tom Blundell (24). Congratulations to the entire New Zealand team.
