ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[speeder]

Scotland batsmen are not toiling and struggle and scoring runs and not being able to give tough targets. If they do they may lose the match.  Scotland batsmen have set a target of 251 which is a very good target.  Namibian batsmen are not working hard and struggle.  We need 135 runs in 21 overs. Which is possible. Namibia has the win. If they work harder and struggle. Because their batsmen are interested and struggle and they are performing well.  Due to which the bowlers of Scotland have not been able to catch him.  Scotland bowlers are struggling and struggle to get wickets and their runs are limited.

I was also thinking they are too slow while they are chasing this target of 252 because things were going against them after 41 overs, but suddenly we have good aggression from Alexander Busing-Volschenk in 42nd over as he hits 15 runs which bring back them into this match with still they need some good hits like these with their main batsman Zacheo van Vuuren is bringing them down as he is having 55 runs from 96 balls he needs to give his best in current situation, but his style of playing is surely not suitable for this format, and he is still not able to hit big hits which are going to create problems for the Namibia.

Now we have good equation between these two teams for the win of this match with 60 runs required on 44 balls and Namibia is having 7 wickets in hand which is giving them good advantage.

Scotland was really lucky to actually win this match in my opinion. Because the Scotland under 19 team has given away a lot of extra in this match. Giving away 26 extra runs is just a recipe for disaster for any team. But they were able to actually win. But they have to work really hard for the win as well. They were able to win by only three runs in the end. I think I have written in a previous post in this thread that I was actually thinking Scotland is going to win this match. Yes that did happen but I am not so sure if they actually deserved to win this match to be honest.

Yes, this side of the Scotland U19 cricket team was both bad. Where they gave the extra runs. As a result of this extra run, this match could have been overturned by the Scotland U19 cricket team. However, this match has been a very competitive game between the two teams. I enjoyed this match very much. Although both teams in this match are two of the weakest teams in this U-19 World Cup, they gave a very good match as weak teams.

Scotland U19 Cricket Team vs Namibia U19 Cricket Team. In today's match, Scotland U19 cricket team batted first and set a target of 252 runs to Namibia U19 cricket team at the end of 50 overs. Scotland U19 cricket team players batted well in this match. In today's match, Scotland U19 cricket team has a high probability of winning. Scotland U19 cricket team players can win this match with strong bowling performance. However, the players of the Namibia 19 cricket team are not to be left out. They will also try hard to win this match. Now let's see to what extent the effort of the players of the Namibia U19 cricket team is useful.

Finally, this match of ICC Under 19s world cup was finished on crease Scotland U19 squad against Namibia U19 squad. Namibia U19 squad was very near for emerging victory in Play off match just 3 more scores needed Namibia U19 squad won this match but sadly, this was not happen and they lost this match only 3 scores. I really sad for Namibia U19 sqaud and also appreciated their performance in batting inning. Total defeating target for Namibia U19 squad was 251 scores and Zacheo van Vuuren and Johannes Visagie batters contributed their best batting performance in this match anf both also made very strong batting partnership. Johannes Visagie collected 69 scores off 87 deliveries. Zacheo van Vuuren collected 86 scores after playing 119 deliveries. In last over, Namibia U19 squad needed 16 scores in 6 deliveries but Namibia U19 squad batters wasted two deliveries and collected 12 scores in last over.

Today match of Scotland U19 vs Namibia U19 team started. Scotland U19 came out to bat first and set a target of 251 runs for 6 wickets in 50 overs. Scotland U19 team batsman Jamie Dunk got out with 76 runs in 93 balls. Adi Hegde to bat well in today's match.  Couldn't. Adi Hegde 1 run off 6 balls. Alec Price 1 run off 3 balls. Owen Gould 35 runs off 58 balls. Uzair Ahmad 36 runs off 59 balls. Rory Grant 5 runs off 17 balls.  has been

Scotland Under 19 team won the match by 3 runs . That match was very interesting and thrilling match. I enjoyed this match very match. Both teams played well but at the end Scotland Under 19 ODI cricket team won the match . From Namibian Under 19 team batting side, Johannes  performed very well and made 69 runs in 87 balls  and Zacheo  Van Vuuren  performed 86 runs in  119 balls . They didn't chase well . Target was. Not very big but they didn't played with responsibility.Namibian Under 19 ODI cricket team has to change their mindset to win matches .

[redsun114]

ScotlandU19 team performed very well they were able to score 251 runs for just six wickets.  ScotlandU19 have 4 reliable batsmen who have performed very well. Among them, two players have collected the most runs in today's team, Jamie Dunk and Bahadar Eshakhiel, these two batsman have collected 76 runs. But in today's match, there is a possibility of ScotlandU19 winning. But the NamibiaU19 team is also performing very well but the loss of two wickets in the power play has put the team under a lot of pressure. If the ScotlandU19 team can improve their bowling performance then today's match is definitely a possibility.

Scotland done good job in batting and now their bowlers are also doing better job with keeping asking rate high which is going to help them even Namibia is having some good batting but sadly due to slow strike rate and poor technique is going to hurt them badly currently we are had 167 runs from 40 overs with the lost of 3 wickets but now asking rate is almost 8.5 which is surely not easy for them with their main play is on crease and having 51 runs from 90 balls which is also going to hurt them in last few overs because now it's time for them to increase their run-rate and release some pressure which is surely going to help them otherwise things can go out of the hands in last few overs.

What a shameful defeat for the Namibia even they were doing good, but sadly their batsmen fail to keep momentum and at the end lost this match by 3 runs I feel they need to work on their batting which is not as par standard for this format because their set batsman Zacheo van Vuuren out on 50th overs 5th ball play 119 balls and score 86 runs which bring them down with he stays long time and done no effort for having better run rate which help his team for winning this match while most of the time they were having good advantage for keeping their wickets safe.

Scotland done good work and keep their nerve which helps them to win this match which is good sign for them and their youngsters which are doing good job for having better results for the future.

Tomorrow there will be a match between Indian U19 team and Nepal U19 which will be interesting because Nepal U19 has still some players which can show their excellence form in the batting . The Indian Team has already been prepared for it and they have already set their batsmen for the tomorrow upcoming match. Nepal is anyhow good then the previous team they have. Indian U19 Team have good batsmen and they have good cricketing skills in young age.

A match of unequal strength is going to be held between India U19 and Nepal U19. Here I can say with much certainty that India U19 team will win today's match because so far India U19 team is undefeated in this U19 World Cup. However, we expect that Nepal U19 team will be able to perform well against India U19 team and give a good exciting match.
However, in the group stage game, Nepal U19 team got a great win against Afghanistan U19 team but then Nepal U19 team could not win any game. However, after today's match of Nepal U-19 team, the Super Six match will also be over.

Australia Vs West Indies
And shortly after, the first ODI of the three-match series between Australia and West Indies will begin. The West Indies drew a historic Test series on Australian soil with newcomers. However, Steven Smith will lead the Australian team today in Cummins' absence. Both the teams have a lot of new players. Australia are clear favorites in today's match but it is not unusual for West Indies to turn the tide in today's match as they won their last ODI series against England. Going by the last few matches I feel the first innings score for today's match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground could be between 260 and 280. Any team winning the toss can take the fielding. I think second batting team can win.

[synchronym]

Today in super six match India U19 team vs Nepal U19 team but today match I will put India U19 team ahead because India is performing very well their batting line is very good if India win the toss and batting first they will definitely give Nepal a big target. However, the bowling and batting of the Nepal team is fairly good, but a little weaker than the India U19 team. Let's finally see how well Nepal's batsmen and bowlers can perform against India. Of course those who perform well on the field will win at the end of the day. But since Nepal has qualified for Super Six, they will definitely try to play well, maybe we will see something good from Nepal's batsmen and bowlers in today's match. Best wishes to both teams.

I think we shouldn't underestimate the Nepal U19 team in this match. Even though the India U19 team has done well in the U19 World Cup before we shouldn't forget that anything can happen in sports especially in cricket. The Nepal U19 team has shown that they can do well by beating Afghanistan U19 in the group stage. This shows that they have the potential to do well against strong teams. It will be interesting to see how they do against the undefeated India U19 team. By the way you are right Indian team still looking strong.

Asian associate teams in general have made great progress during the last few years, ever since Jay Shah was appointed as the President of the Asian Cricket Council. They have expanded the total membership to 27 countries and a lot of effort is put into countries such as Nepal and Indonesia. And the impact is being felt in major ICC tournaments in the form of improved performances from teams like Nepal. All that said, all that Nepal can hope from today's match is a decent defeat. They are still not up to a level where they can defeat the Indians.

[cozytrade]

The first match of the ODI series between West Indies and Australia is going to start shortly. I see Australia as the favorite team in today's match. From what we have seen in the Test matches between these two teams, both the West Indies and Australia have equal strength. As a result, it is assumed that today's match is going to be a very exciting match. Especially in the game of today's ODI series, I am hopeful that the Australian team will be able to show their strength. Now let's wait till the start of the game and see how deadly the two teams can become.

[Publictalk792]

Today in super six match India U19 team vs Nepal U19 team but today match I will put India U19 team ahead because India is performing very well their batting line is very good if India win the toss and batting first they will definitely give Nepal a big target. However, the bowling and batting of the Nepal team is fairly good, but a little weaker than the India U19 team. Let's finally see how well Nepal's batsmen and bowlers can perform against India.

But since Nepal has qualified for Super Six, they will definitely try to play well, maybe we will see something good from Nepal's batsmen and bowlers in today's match. Best wishes to both teams.

I also think the India U19 team is likely to be better than the Nepal U19 team in today match. India has been playing really well especially their batting. If they get to bat first they could set a really high score for Nepal to try and beat. By the way the result of the match will depend on how well the players perform. Both teams have skilled players who can have a big impact. It will be exciting to see how Nepal's batters and bowlers do against the powerful Indian team.

Australia vs West Indies

The first match of the ODI series between Australia and West Indies is being played today. Australia has decided to field first in this match.There are still 14 minutes left in this game, the game will start in 14 minutes.We saw good performances from both the teams in the Test series which resulted in a draw in the Test series But we expect to see a variation of the ODI series i.e. one of the teams will win the series.Today, the first battle to win the series will begin where Australia will be ahead as the favourite.

One plus point with the Nepal team is that they have so may players with senior team experience in their squad. Gulsan Jha is the backbone of Nepal senior squad for quite some time now, and Dev Khanal also have played for the national senior team. India doesn't have any such players. But then, BCCI is the richest cricket board in the world and the Indian players have access to the best training and infrastructural facilities in the world. In today's match I am not expecting much from Nepal. They should be able to give a decent fight though.

ScotlandU19 team performed very well they were able to score 251 runs for just six wickets.  ScotlandU19 have 4 reliable batsmen who have performed very well. Among them, two players have collected the most runs in today's team, Jamie Dunk and Bahadar Eshakhiel, these two batsman have collected 76 runs. But in today's match, there is a possibility of ScotlandU19 winning. But the NamibiaU19 team is also performing very well but the loss of two wickets in the power play has put the team under a lot of pressure. If the ScotlandU19 team can improve their bowling performance then today's match is definitely a possibility.

In today's match, Namibia U19 need 107 more runs to win which is a tough task for them as they have only 16 overs in hand now. However, they still have seven wickets in hand for which they still have a chance to win this match. Namibia U19's third wicket partnership has been very good as the pair have put up a total of 125 runs which has put them in a strong position. Zacheo van Vuuren is still batting brilliantly for Namibia U19 team, he is unbeaten on 51 runs, maybe a lot depends on him for the victory of Namibia U19 team today.

The NamibiaU19 team had more than enough chances to win as they had a poor performance in the last over.  ScotlandU19 did not bowl and field well, needing only a few runs in the last over as they collected five runs without a ball as NamibiaU19 came a long way to victory.  But despite having enough wickets in the last minute, they could not perform well, it is their misfortune.  The number 47 over collected only three runs here and if NamibiaU19 could have collected a good team ram they would have been on their way to victory.  ScotlandU19 team performed very well from the start due to which the bowling stand at the last minute made it possible to win.

Actually the second match of the test series was unexpected for me because in the first test match Australia win easily the performance was so good. But West Indies recover in the second match and put that test series in a draw. But ODI format I would like to say that the chances of winning is more for Australian team because there batting format for ODI series is much is stronger than West Indies team. I am going to taking Australia today.

It was not just the last over. Throughout overs 40-50, they failed to accelerate, despite the fact that they had plenty of wickets in hand. When Alexander Busing-Volschenk got out, they just needed 56 runs from 6.2 overs with 6 wickets in hand. The batsman who came next (Ben Brassell) wasted plenty of balls and got out with a score of 3 from 7 balls. Peter-Daniel Blignaut tried his best, but by then it was too late. And once Zacheo van Vuuren got out, it was all over for Namibia. It was a match they could have won though.

Namibia U19 needs 16 runs just for Last over (6 balls remaining)
0,1b,4, WD+4,0,w,2
PD Blignaut 20(13)
Here Namibia lost only due to lack of experience especially the target of 16 runs in the last over but when the number 4 ball added five runs with a wide, should have hit a boundary instead of playing a beat shot. Moreover, PD Blignaut being on the non-strike side was one of the main reasons for the team's defeat. Moreover, Namibia U19 team should have played hard hitting short five overs earlier but in reality nothing was expected from them. However, the game ended with a three-run defeat.

Australia has decided to field first in this match.There are still 14 minutes left in this game, the game will start in 14 minutes.We saw good performances from both the teams in the Test series which resulted in a draw in the Test series But we expect to see a variation of the ODI series i.e. one of the teams will win the series.Today, the first battle to win the series will begin where Australia will be ahead as the favourite.

But West Indies recover in the second match and put that test series in a draw. But ODI format I would like to say that the chances of winning is more for Australian team because there batting format for ODI series is much is stronger than West Indies team. I am going to taking Australia today.

I also want to put Australia ahead today. I think Australia will win today. Because Australia's batting and bowling line are both better than West Indies and the game is being played at Australia's home ground. The match has already started, so far West Indies have collected 42 runs by 3 wickets in 12 overs. The two West Indies opening batsmen Justin Greaves and Alick Athanaze and the West Indies captain Shai Hope are out as they are 3 batsmen, so the West Indies are under a lot of pressure at the moment. Kavem Hodge and Keacy Carty are both at the crease, they will need to form a good partnership to get the team out of the pressure. Let's see how many runs West Indies can target against the mighty Australia.

Australia is already on ahead. West Indies team loose their four wicket in 16 over and their current run is 60 and their current runrate is only 3.75 . Even then they have 34 more over I think they have a little chance to make any good score. Because they already loose their big wickets. So I think what they are going to set target for australian team that will be not hard for them. So I will say that australia can definitely win this man if they stop West indies to take crose 200 run today.

In the first ODI match of Australia vs West Indies, the West Indies team is not able to bat very well under the pressure of the Australian bowlers. West Indies batsmen are under a lot of pressure after losing wickets at the beginning. West Indies The current state of play looks like the West Indies team will be all out before they can play 50 overs. West Indies' current score is 86 runs for 4 wickets in 21 overs. Keacy Carty and Roston if these two batsmen can bat well then West Indies can give big run target to Australia then the game will be competitive. But in today's match, Australia bowlers are bowling aggressively from the beginning. Australia is bowling very well. Especially Xavier is bowling very well, bowling 6 overs, giving ten runs and picking up three important wickets.
