ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

Sanju Samson have only played one game, that being second, in first he didn't get chance to bat since score was low and early batters finished the job. Tilak verma has been given more chances and has failed, so he should be put on bench and any other should be given chance.

Sanju Samson has got lot more opportunity than Tilak Verma in his career, still he's making the same mistake as he did earlier. He won't get such opportunity in the future and if he does not bat well today then it should be considered the end of his career. There are far better batter and WK who are eagerly waiting to get a chance. I agree Tilak Verma should be removed from the playing 11 and someone else should be given a chance today. He has been an utter failure behind the wicket and in front of the wicket, last game he faced 30 balls and scored only 10 runs. No one expect such kind of performance from a newcomer like him.

India is a big country with a big population filled with talent. It takes someone to be a very good cricketer to even play a match for the Indian national team. And nobody can be given too many opportunities in the Indian squad.

Tilak Varma and Sanju Samson have been given quite a lot of opportunities. There is no doubt that both of them are talented but none of them can afford to make more mistakes at this point. Because other talented players will come and take their place. In the recent u-19 Asia Cup, although India wasn't able to win it, we saw some talented batters there as well.

Sanju Samson and KL Rahul are at the crease and don't forget the fact that both these batsmen have career batting average of more than 50. However at this point they are trying to settle in rather than going for the risky shots. On the other side, Beuran Hendricks and Nandre Burger have picked up two wickets apiece. Despite the absence of key bowlers such as Anrich Nortje, Kagiso Rabada and Marco Jansen, the Protean bowlers are doing a very decent job. And once the spinners (Keshav Maharaj and Aiden Markram) come to bowl, it will be even more interesting.

The third match of the ODI series between South Africa and India has started. Today's match is very important for both the teams to win the series. The team that wins today's match will win the series. Both teams have collected 1-1 from the previous two matches. I have picked South Africa as the favorite team in today's crucial match of this series. The South African team is bowling at the beginning of today's match. The bowlers of the South African team have so far bowled 9.5 overs and managed to knock down 2 batsmen of the Indian team. If the bowlers of the South African team can put the batsmen of the Indian team under severe pressure in today's match. Then it will be very easy for South African team to win the match against India. I think South Africa fans are likely to profit by betting on today's match.

They can't afford to make mistakes either because the playing XI has long tail and of course two all-rounders are there but if there are some quick wickets then the results won't be any different from previous match so team India has to play sensible to win this series.

Edit KL Rahul got out while writing so Indian fans be ready to see rare bilateral defeat by team India.

I think India will win today as India have already scored 102 runs for three wickets in 22 overs. Sanju Samson and Tilak Varma are now batting at the crease.
A while ago Lokesh Rahul got out for just 21 runs.I expected Lakesh Rahul to play well as captain in today's match but he failed. Anyway now Sanzhu Samson is moving towards his fifty runs, maybe he will play a good role today and play an important role in his team's victory.
Today both the teams have to play well because today is the series deciding match, the team that wins today will win the series.

In today's crucial match of the ODI series, South Africa is the favorite team, and India seems to be struggling. With the bat, India has already lost three wickets, including an unusual dismissal for skipper KL Rahul, who only managed to score 21 runs. A partnership is desperately needed at this moment.
It looks that there might have been over-experimentation and poor team selection for this crucial match, and now India has to deal with the consequences. There's a feeling that they might be focusing on preparing for the upcoming test series, hence giving chances to youngsters in these unnecessary ODIs. While India may lose matches, the youngsters will gain valuable exposure. However, it's questionable whether this is the right selection for becoming a winning team. South Africa should capitalize on these opportunities and win the match as well as series against India.

It's good SA won previous game, keeps excitement alive for the last. Hope to see change regarding Tilak Verma, he should be rested, didn't do anything in T20 series or in these ODIS.

The first game was won by India by 8 wickets and then the second game was won by South Africa again by 8 wickets. You can call this a coincidence but it also shows that the two matches were one-sided where in the one match India completely dominated while in the other match, South Africa dominated in the match.

In the 3rd ODI, India scored 132 in 30 overs and lost 3 wickets. Sanju Samson is looking good at 52 runs and may make big runs if he stays till the end. Rest all the batsmen had a start with Rajat Patidar making 22 runs and KL Rahul made 21 runs but they could not took the start to go on and make high score.

The match is not in the favor of India yet and it is also not in favor of South Africa, rather it is at a critical stage and both teams looking to dominate the other at the current stage.

Matches between India and South Africa are very tight throughout the day as South Africa bowled very well today due to which India scored only 135 runs in 31 overs. Their run rate is very low in this game and it looks like India might lose the match against South Africa. South Africa has really gone to a very good level in the game of cricket and are they overtaking India too.  India has been seen losing matches against South Africa before. The same is likely to happen today.

135 in 31 over with 3 wickets down is not a slow game. The run rate is over 4 and with wickets on hand, any team would score about 250 with this run rate at current time as the run rate would increase over the last 10 overs. India is doing good with it singles and overall they are batting at a good rate and could reach above 250.
The previous two ODIs were also low scoring ones. This games seems would be the highest scoring game of the whole series. I see India winning at this rate as it would be difficult for South Africa to chase a larger score against the Indian bowling.

Tilak started of like a test inning, probably because what happened in the last match and now he got the pace too since he is known for fast scoring. On the other side good to see Sanju Samson playing responsibly, hope he will play the Anchor role cause he is the senior player now and taking the responsibility is one of the reason to have a permanent slot.

In the third ODI, South Africa won the toss and decided to field to target. Although India are chatting at the moment but their runs have not increased comparatively much, for which they have not been able to reach 200 runs so far. Indian team batsman Sanju Samson has been batting brilliantly, he is playing perfectly for his century and he has collected 64 runs off 90 balls. If India can bat till the last minute and score 250+ runs, it might be an interesting game against South Africa. Although South Africa are preparing to play today's match with a target so that they can win the series by winning the third ODI match. However, South Africa will try hard enough to win today's match, and I think if South Africa can bat well then it is possible against India.

Tilak Verma is playing ODI matches in Test style. In today's ODI match, India must bat in T20 style, then maybe the runs could have been over 350. But if India must win today's match, they must score runs in T20 style in the next 10 overs and take the team score above 300 runs. samson is unbeaten on 95 and Tilak Verma is unbeaten on 48 off 75 balls.  However, 48 runs off 75 balls did not look good for India in this ODI match.

Edited: Tilak Verma out with 52 runs costing 77 balls ..
Edited: Samson Nervous 90...4 runs behind for Century.

In the third ODI match of India vs South Africa, this match is hosted by Paarl, and according to the current situation there is no chance of rain but just for sure, I will tell you the current weather of Paarl. There is 33-degree weather which means that rain will not come on the ground and we can see the match without any problem.

Today is sunny weather in the Paarl ground. Well, you have received weather information now you should have information of the current situation of the match, and the situation tell that this match will be won by India.
Although India's score may look on the lower side, but as you know they have batted and give the target, so they can create pressure in the 2nd innings.

The weather conditions are all favorable but most likely due to the pitch condition of the wicket the runs may not be coming but according to the India over there are some runs less. The reason for this must be given to the batsmen in the India top order as India went into a bit of backward form after falling by two wickets for 49 runs and with Tilak Verma batting in a fairly Test style the economic run rate dropped a bit. However, today's match is a must win for India to win the series and on the other hand, a must win for South Africa to win the series. But if India can collect like 300 runs then there will be a lot of possibility for India to win the match.

Edited: Sanju Samson's First maiden 100 for ODI carrier. Congratulations.

India VS South Africa 

Today is the last match of South Africa vs India ODI series. As both the teams have won one match each, today's match is an important match for both the teams. As the series is tied at 1-1, today's match is going to be the final match. South Africa batting first in the first match could not give the target enough runs. India easily won the first match. In the second match, South Africa turned around with a brilliant performance, and beat India easily. So we expect to see this match full of rivalry today. The team that wins today will win the series. Let's see which team can show great performance and win the series.

This South Africa vs India match is going to be really competitive. As both the teams are currently tied with one match each, if they win the third ODI match in today's match, either of the two teams will definitely win the series. If India can match the impressive performance they did in the first ODI against South Africa today, then it is definitely winnable. And if South Africa can perform as well as batting and bowling in the second match, then they will surely win a wonderful series in their own home ground.

Today every team will want to give their best performance.India did not play well against South Africa in the second ODI as they were bowled out for just 211 runs as South Africa beat India by 7 wickets.
But it seems that India will play well against South Africa in today's match and they will be able to win.This is my thinking.But there is one truth about the game of cricket which is that cricket is a game of glorious uncertainty.The team that plays well on the field will win.

The Indian team today defended the wicket but could not advance in terms of runs. Currently India team has collected 235 in 44 overs with the loss of 4 wickets. But I can say that the performance of the Indian team is very good as Samson scored a century in 110 balls and completed 100 runs. In this way, if the Indian team can finish the game completely, then they can collect 280 plus runs. South Africa team is not performing well in terms of fielding.  So far 16 runs have gone extra due to South African team's fielding and bowling missing.

Sanju Samson  is going well and made 96 runs. And India has made 230 and lost 4 wickets. If Sanju Samson will play till end so I hope India will go above 280 runs. And if India will go above 280 runs so this will be good target for South Africa team. And this will be little bit difficult to chase.
And now while writing this message Sanju Samson has made his century. And India has played 44 overs and 6 overs are left so there is possibility that India can go above 280 runs.

[JSRAW]

Samson's fan will have a field day tonight   and they deserve it.

Very Impressive and sensible ton from Sanju, it was tough to bat on as the pitch is slow so I think this inning will impress selectors or his critics as well. Almost 5 overs left so need a strong finish from Sanju and Rinku, anything close to 280-290 would be a competitive score here.

India VS South Africa 

[....]

Today match is very important match for both squads because this match will decide who will win this competition. In this match, South Africa squad performance was not impressive too much as expected because South Africa sqaud was not break batters of Indian squad at low scores and India squad collected 296 scores and too close for 300 but now their batting inning was closed and total 296 scores was defended target off 50 overs. Both sqaud ls have equal possibility for victory in today match if south Africa sqaud played well in batting inning then they definitely emerge victory but Indian squad bowlers is also very dangerous and they should not underestimate their bowling.

[libert19]

India makes 296, looks good total as wicket looks difficult to bat on. I'm drifting towards India to win this one. Sanju, Tilak needed to mark and they did, Rinku as expected turning out to be a good finisher.

Due to good and timely sensible batting from Sanju Samson Indian team touch very competitive target of 296 which is defendable for them on this pitch under these conditions and if they are going to win this match this could be good for them before test series as they already ended on level in T20i series they need to going on with their aggressive approach because South African relatively new batting is not competitive like Indians.
Even after winning second match they are also confident, but now this is big target and conditions are also bowling favorable so now we will have good match between all young blood from these both countries with I am now favoring India for the win they are going good job throughout after lost in ODI world cup final.
