ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

The other day i was comparing Virat and Babar, who is better,

This time, I will tell you about Babar Azam who will prove them goat means the greatest of all time. Ab Devillers "If I am from another galaxy, Babar Azam is from another planet" Virat Kohli "In front of Babar Azam's cover drive, my cover drive is nothing." Sachin Tendulkar "If you think that Babar Azam is not a good player so you know nothing about cricket." Ronaldo & Messi in the same interview "We are lucky that Babar Azam chose different sports." and many other players also said good words for Babar Azam but I forgot it. Anyway after seeing this, you can't hate Babar Azam. 'BA56'

Namibia played well and won. But after watching the performance of Nepali players against Canada I expected better performance from Nepal in this match. We have seen great batting from Nepali players in all three matches against Canada. But in today's match, the Nepalese players were able to provide a target of only 133 runs.

Expectations were much higher from them as they has shown good results in thier recent previous matches but later after expensive and sudden collapse of thier top order they unable to control situation and that were become the main reason of thier defeat, as everyone has idea that 130+ around target is not enough to defend at ODI even you have plenty of quality bowlers too. In my mind it's not even enough for T20 too because cricket are becoming more and more advanced and quick and that why we even see a 240 around score in single T20 innings. Anyway Nepal should learn from his mistakes and work on thier weak zones in order to make a strong comback in second match

This time, I will tell you about Babar Azam who will prove them goat means the greatest of all time. Ab Devillers "If I am from another galaxy, Babar Azam is from another planet" Virat Kohli "In front of Babar Azam's cover drive, my cover drive is nothing." Sachin Tendulkar "If you think that Babar Azam is not a good player so you know nothing about cricket." Ronaldo & Messi in the same interview "We are lucky that Babar Azam chose different sports." and many other players also said good words for Babar Azam but I forgot it. Anyway after seeing this, you can't hate Babar Azam. 'BA56'

Bro are you serious or is it joke, in think you are trying to make fun of baber Azam. I don't believe in comparison and in my mind every one has thier own class, records and style of play.

Namibia won by 4 wickets against Nepal in ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League two. The match has held in Mulpani Cricket Ground, Kathmandu, Nepal. Namibia just won the toss and they went for fielding. And Nepal batsman started losing their wickets from Earlier and they made only 21-4 which is too poor in a ODI Format Match. Then Bhim Sharki(44) and some all rounders manage to scored some runs and they able to collect total 132 runs. Need to must mention Gerhard Erasmus who got 5 wickets which was extra ordinary. And then Namibia came to bat and they slowly played the match. Some wickets gone and their top ordered batsman manage everything as planned and got the victory from nepal.

It wasn't expected such a poor performance from Nepal against Namibia. the reason behind nepal lost the match was, top order batsman unable to defend bowls as excepted and had to return from the field for their early collapse. Top batsman wanted to score more and that's why most of them lost their wicket as they failed to handle the pressure of that situation.  Bhim Sharki did 44 runs from 86 bowls. Rest of players didn't Played well but atleast scored better than top order batsman. 132 was the total target that Namibia easily Crossed and won the match. The day before tomorrow Nepal will be play again with another team. Hope they would develop themselves on next match

I think Namibia deserved to win against Nepal in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League two. Even though they lost the coin toss and had to start fielding Namibia's bowlers did really well. They made Nepal best batsmen lose wickets early and that was surprising when they lost 4 wickets and made only 21 runs which is not good. By the way Gerhard Erasmus did a great job by taking 5 wickets which was really amazing. Excellent played Namibia

Nepal give very disappointed performance they all Out in just 132 runs in 42th over of the match and Namibia winning this game easily. Namibia won that game by 4 wickets in first match of ICC Crick world cup league 2. The man of the game player is Gerhard Erasmus from Namibia for all round brilliant bowling and batting performance by picked five wickets hail 5/28 and All out Nepal team. Nepal will take series his batting performance and improve it for winning next games.

Yes you are right Nepal performance in the match against Namibia was not good. They only scored 132 runs in 42 overs which shows that they were not very good at batting. Namibia played very well and won the game by 4 wickets. Gerhard Erasmus was the best player he took five wickets for only 28 runs. Nepal should think about how they batted and try to get better for future games. They need to look at their weaknesses and make changes so that they have a better chance of winning in the next matches.

Defeating Nepal at their backyard is not that easy, but Namibia managed to do that. And remember that the Namibian team was without their superstar David Wiese. On the other hand, they brought in Jack Brassell who performed exceptionally in the recently concluded U19 world cup. These two teams (Nepal and Namibia) are among the fastest growing associate teams in international cricket. It is difficult to say who is better out of these two, but I am happy with the fact that both are playing with 100% native squads and still making great improvement with every passing year.

Teams like Oman and UAE are 100% composed of expats while teams like USA and Canada also have players mostly of South Asian origin. That's quite right when we say that only Nepal and Namibia in ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 have 100% native players. ICC has objection on teams from gulf countries who have 100% expats that are on work vise.
Namibia has participated in many ICC tournaments while Nepal for the first time will play T20 world cup this year which will give them good confidence.

First match of this fight yesterday between Nepal squad against Namibia squad and I did not believe such performance from Napal squad side because I watched many matches of Nepal squad in other competition and they gave very challenging time to against sqaud and defeated with their fantastic performance but in first match against Namibia squad, their performance was very bad and their squad member collected just 132 scores and whole squad was cleared out. Just Bhim Sharki batter played very good inning and he collected 44 scores off 86 deliveries and resting batter did not contribute their best performance. But their bowler put a bit pressure on Namibia squad member because Namibia squad lost 6 batter wickets when they emerged victory in this match. But after all, Namibia squad got a victory in this match with 4 batter wickets.

Let's see in next fight among them and who will emerge victory in second match.

It was a poor batting performance from Nepal side after they won an ODI series on same ground against Canada. The whole Nepal batting lineup collapsed on just 132 runs with Bhim Sharki as top scorer with 44 runs. Gerhard Erasmus has his best bowling figures of 5/28 in that game. Namibia had to work hard to win that game, they lost 6 wickets while chasing that small target. Namibia is top team of this tournament and Nepal need to perform better against them in upcoming games to stay on top.

This is surely the best point of these both associate teams with both having 100% native players, and they are also working on their quality which is improving in last few years with if they keep going then surely we will be having few good white ball teams in near future Namibia recently beats Zimbabwe for the qualification of T20i which is also good because they are bringing quality and also having good merit system which is allowing their players to give their best for having chance at the top level.

Nepal is also around here for years, but sadly they fail to produce good results because we have tough competition for them in Asian region with too many quality teams already and few others with adopted players are also coming which are surely hurting their cause.

Yes I fully watched the match between Nepal and Namibia in the first match.  Where Nepal team players played irresponsible game. Nepal is a much stronger team than Namibia. So I thought in this match, Nepal team will start with victory in the first match against Namibia. But unfortunately the players of Nepal team lost all the wickets by scoring 132 runs in 41.1 overs of the first innings game. The Nepalese batsmen were devastated by the excellent bowling of the Namibian bowlers. Due to which the players of the Nepal team ended the first innings with an unexpected score. But the match was a very enjoyable match. I was very happy to enjoy the match.

If cricket is not played by the local players of a country then the game of cricket is not very attractive. We are seeing more of this practice in some countries in recent times. I have mentioned earlier where I felt that the ICC may have continued such an effort as countries that did not like cricket but they became enthusiastic about cricket. I am very optimistic about some of the new teams, Nepal being one of them. Who has improved a lot in cricket in a short period of time. If they participate in the World Cup, they will gain more experience and their cricket will improve.

You are right when players from a country play cricket it makes the sport more special and interesting. It is sad to see some countries not valuing their own players and depending too much on players from other countries. And I also think t is good to see that the ICC is trying to make cricket more popular in countries where it wasn't popular before. Like you gave an example of Nepal. And I think if ICC will give more funds to these kind of teams so these teams can come up with new grace and can give more surprised in World Cups.

In ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 match between Nepal vs Netherlands already started. Nepal won the toss and chose to bowling first. It seems they are doing good performance. Because after 12 over Netherlands only took 35 run and the also loose their two strong batsmen. Netherlands current run-rate is about only 2.91. I think it was not a good start for Netherland team.
Before the starting this match, I was thought about that Netherlands would won this match without any questions. Now I think it kinda became hard to understand what gonna happen. Their two openers both are failed to do the performance. If this continue I don't think that Netherlands will be able to cross 200run today. Can't say with guarantee yet because, Nepal's batting is still left.

Agree Both Nepal and Namibia teams has so much improved their cricket. In recent match the victory of Namibia over Nepal is Good sign for Namibia. Namibia chased down the target 134 runs in just lost of 6 wickets in 33 overs of the match. Jan Frylinck bat so welled in that match scored 34 runs, unfortunately missed his well deserved half century by 16 runs short. Namibia won the match against Nepal very easily by 4 wickets. Player of the Match is Gerhard Erasmus for his amazing all round batting and bowling performance they picked 5 crusial wickets for his team by just giving 28 runs and all out Nepal team in 132 runs. Nepal very set back performance in that match.

At this moment, both squads have left the ground because match has already finished of this competition ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 and this match was played among Netherlands sqaud and Nepal squad. In previous match Nepal squad was displayed really a bad performance in first match and gave very low defeating target because of this, Nepal sqaud lost this match but current, their squad comeback in today match, they defeated Netherlands sqaud members very badly aand just lost one batter wickets, they achieved all target which was 137 scores. Aasif Sheikh and Kushal Bhurtel both these batter came first in field as a starter batter displayed nice performance but one batter Kushal Bhurtel was wiped out at 28 scores but Aasif Sheikh 54 scores with not out. Next batter Anil Sah also collected 57 scores and contribute best performance in this match and at last, Nepal squad emerged victory.

[jasonjm]

Nepal won the match comprehensively by 9 wickets and under 16 overs. This victory is a morale booster for them. Batting first, the Netherlands's batter got the start but could not convert it into an opportunity. A 138-run target is nothing in international cricket. NED batting failed miserably. In response, Nepal played good cricket and won the game comfortably. Nepal improved their game a lot compared to the first match, where they got all out on a similar total. In this match, they batted aggressively and did not allow the Netherlands bowlers to settle.

[Justin999]

ICC CWC League 2 is started. Netherlands vs Nepal match has end today and surprising Nepal won by 9 wickets lol. Ned bat first and did 137 run from (39 overs). Most of players tired to defense the bowl and collected a lower amount of runs. Kushal Bhurtel got 4 wickets alone. But when nepal started batting, it seems they were playing T20 match. They improved themselves a lot. They played too good today and they just Crossed 137 run target with 15 overs only. Where hald century done by Anil Kumar Sah and Aasif Sheikh respectively
