ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

Yes you are right they have started the T20I series now. And I also surprised when I saw her (Hayley Matthews). She was really good in ODI series but in T20I series first match she disappointed me she got out on second ball with zero run.
I was not expecting such kind of performance from her. I hope that she will make a comeback in second match and will play better. By the way Pakistan gave a tough time to West Indies in first T20I match. Unfortunately Pakistan lost the match but they tried well.

Exactly we all know that she was really good in ODI format and she made 325 runs in total in three ODI matches. She also collected 5 wickets too. But in T20I match she didn't played well. Even we can say that she didn't play. She got out without any runs. But in bowling she collected 1 wickets. I hope she will see focus on her mistakes and will try to fix them and will come with more power and practice. And I also hope she will do better performance in the coming matches. And will again help her team to win the second match too.

It is a shame for Pakistani women. Already was whitewashed by West Indies Women in the ODI series. In the first T20 match too, they lost by one run to West Indies women. However, Hayley Matthews could not play in this mess. Played just two balls and was cut out and returned to the gallery. His total of 325 runs in the ODI series is unforgettable. Hope you do better. And Pakistani women reinvent themselves.

Pakistan women's team lost ODI matches against West Indies women's team very badly. In ODI match against West Indies we saw batting disaster of Pakistan women team they lost every match due to their batting disaster maybe thought first T20 match Pakistan women team will turn around. But against West Indies Pakistan women team tried hard to win maybe yesterday's match was not on the side of Pakistan women team because the bowlers of Pakistan women team bowled very well against West Indies women team. Pakistan women's team lost the match yesterday by one run dramatically. However, if the batting of the Pakistan women's team could have been a little more responsible, yesterday's match would have been won against the West Indies. The bowlers of Pakistan Women's team bowled very well as they restricted a strong West Indies Women's team to just 122 runs. If Pakistan Women's batsmen could have batted responsibly, the first T20 match would have been Pakistan Women's.

There were two teams who is now playing in Pakistan first is West Indies Women team and second is New Zealand. In both cases I was looking that Pakistani teams are not looking much stronger as they should be. Both teams should try to focus on mistakes and should fix it for better performance. So now Pakistan Women team will play second T20I match so I think they will play well in today match and can make a comeback.

Hard luck for Pakistan women lost the first T20 match by just 1 runs against west Indies women. Pakistan women while chasing down an easy target only scored 121 runs in a loss of 8 wickets and unfortunately lost the match by one runs. The Player of the Match is Karishma Ramharack from west Indies women for his amaall-aroundround performance especially bowling performance picked 4 important wickets by giving only 15 runs in his bowling spell.

Basically Pakistan Women teams needs more practice and they need to focus on their management and also they should fix their mistakes which is really important for a team. If they will not make the mistakes which they were making in previous matches so they will make a strong comeback in the next matches. Pakistan Women team is playing in home ground and still they are not able to win the match. So there is the mistakes in teams which must be resolved. I hope they will do better in next games. Today they will play next match in T20I format so I hope they will do better in today match.

Pakistan did win the New Zealand Series however overall there are no any good sentiments for the Pakistan team, both women's and the men's cricket team performances.

In the powerplay in the yesterday match, Pakistan bowlers were not able to do anything which is why they were losing their boundaries back to back, and also Pakistani bowling attack of pacers in the powerplay has been decreased not increased but then Usma Mir came, he picked a wicket and once again the matter has been true for Pakistan but with one wicket nothing can happen so he picked 2 wickets and not allow to the batsmen of New Zealand to make runs.

While Shadab Khan, Imad Wasim, and Iftikhar Ahmed defending score, but in the middle Babar Azam gave bowl to Shaheen Shah and he also picked wickets that helped Pakistan put pressure on the opponent and that move paid off as Pakistan won the last match against New Zealand.

Yes you are right. There are no good sentiments for Pakistan. They can come up if they will watch out their mistakes otherwise they can not be able to stand against big teams.

As you described the situation of the match exactly they done like that. Usama Mir get 2 crucial wickets. After him we know Shaheen Shah Afridi was there and he put some pressure on New Zealand team. Muhammad Amir now disappointing to the fans and he is not bowling good now. By the way I will still congratulate the Pakistan team.

Today they will play next match in T20I format so I hope they will do better in today match.

You are right Pakistan women needs a lot of improvement i his bowling and especially in batting unit to perform well in next matches. I think main reason of Pakistan women team badly performance is mismanagement of Pakistan cricket board. Bismah Maroof who is captain of pakistan women team take retirement from international cricket.  he is outstanding all rounder player of pakistan women team leading run scorer from the Pakistan women team in ODI and T20 cricket.

Once time again Afghanistan bowler out the Sri Lanka batsman in the fourth ball of the 27 over. This is the second achievement for Afghanistan bowler. Sri Lanka batsman makes 304 run in 50 over and 8 outs. This is the target for Afghanistan batsman. This is the good and hard target. Afghanistan batsman can not complete this target and lose the match.

With DLS Method this match was finished today and this fight has begun among Sri Lanka A sqaud against Afghanistan A sqaud this was the first unofficial match of this competition. In this match, I did not see any much difference among these squads like performance in both innings. But victory always goes to one squad in two different squads. One thing I noticed that Sri Lanka A sqaud defeateing target was very impressive and challenging with total of 304 scores and also I know that Afghanistan A did not much powerful squad and also played very bad innings in previous competitions which their sqaud played. With just 8 scores Sri Lanka A squad got a victory and Sahan Arachchige bowler made his best contribution for their squad and picked 3 wickets along with Nuwanidu Fernando batter also collected 83 scores which was big number one more batter also displayed significant strength in batting inning Nishan Madushka, he also collected 72 scores off 82 deliveries.

I totally agree with your thoughts on match between Sri Lanka A and Afghanistan A teams. DLS method made the first unofficial match exciting and it was great to see Sri Lanka A team easily achieve the challenging target of 304. Small win margin of just 8 runs shows that both teams played with lot of spirit. Sahan Arachchige bowling was excellent he collected 3 important wickets and Nuwanidu Fernando made 83 runs and Nishan Madushka made 72 runs which really help the team. By the way Afghanistan A team is not as strong they showed moments of promise and it will be interesting to see how they do in the next match. Over all match was really exciting.

Sri Lanka A team played really well in this match. 305 runs target was a good target. Afghanistan was trying well but unfortunately rain was there and they lost the match by DLS method.
So for now Sri Lanka A is looking strong as compare to Afghanistan A team. After all today is the second match between them. And if there will be no rain so we will see that which team is better. I hope that SriLanka A will continue their performance and will win this match. I might be wrong. But I think they can win.

Generally, when matches are played in DLS format, the latter teams are more likely to lose, as the pitch is much cooler after rain. But in this case the Sri Lanka team performed well as always before the rain, but as soon as the Afghanistan team started to bat, the rain came immediately and the match was suspended for some time. At that moment, when the match started in DLS system, Afghanistan team lost, because the ball started to swing more and the speed increased. So facing various problems Afghanistan team batting could not perform well due to which this match was lost.

Sri Lanka A versus Afghanistan A

Afghanistan batsman makes 29 run in 10 over and 5 outs. Afghanistan batsman are not working hard and struggle and can not make run. Afghanistan batsman makes 121 run in 27.2 over and 10 outs.

2nd match between Afghanistan A and Sri Lanka A was done. And once again Sri Lanka won the match but this time Afghanistan team did worst performance. Because in 1st match, they did decent amount of runs which was 277, while Sri Lanka had 304 scored. But this time Afghanistan all out within 121 runs only. Their top players out with lower runs while their all rounders Farmanullah(37) and Qais Ahmad (43) makes runs for their team. Otherwise it could be worst. I must say Sri Lankan bowling line was so perfect. Even they also have done well in batting. At beginning they lost their two openers but Kamil Mishara(45) played brilliantly and had a great contribution behind this achievement of Sri Lanka team

This match was limited to 30 overs due to rain. And Afghanistan A team performance was not good. They made 121 runs in 27 overs and all the team out. From Srilanka A bowlers Sahan Arachchige, Chamika Gunasekara and Mohamed Shiraz was good in bowling and they collected 6 wickets in total(2-2-2). After that Srilanka started their turn and again rain started and they made 104 runs in 15 overs. And due to DLS method the target shortened to 101 runs so Sri Lanka won the match easily. They have 5 matches series and now they are at 2-0.

Over all if we see so Sri Lanka A team is looking more strong as compare to the Afghanistan A team. While this match was limited to 30 overs but Afghanistan didn't play well they only made 121 runs. And the target wasn't high. When SriLanka A team started playing and they just near to their victory the rain started. We can see that they made 104 runs in half of the given overs. So they could win the in next 2 to 3 overs because the target was not high. By the way Sri Lanka A won the match by DLS method. And I hope they will continue their performance in next matches and I think they can win this series with 5-0 easily. So let's see what they will do in next matches.

I think Sri Lanka A team is stronger than Afghanistan A team based on their recent matches. In a short 30 over match Afghanistan had trouble scoring runs and only made 121. Sri Lanka A team was easily winning scoring 104 runs in almost 15 overs when rain stopped the game. They were close to winning. Sri Lanka A won match using a special rule called DLS. Since they played so well and I also think they might keep winning and take the whole series 5-0. It will be exciting to see if they can keep playing well and will win series.

Nepal once again lost to West Indies A, at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground. Despite winning the first match they are now trailing the series 1-2. And today they went down by a bug margin. Batting first, West Indies set up a strong target of 228, after Johnson Charles
made 119 from just 61 balls. Everyone except Gulsan Jha went for more than 10 runs per over. And in return none of the Nepal batsmen could get to 30, as they were bowled out for just 151.

This West Indian side which is here in Nepal for the practice of their players having too many big names which already have mark in international cricket and things are also well under control lost their first game this was surprising, but now they are doing good job and having comeback with mostly players are here as they are looking for their best possible players those will be available for the selection of next world cup and this is good chance for them to give their best. For me most surprising thing is Nepal were able to chase 200+ runs into first game which is really impressive job from them now we have two more games so most chances now West Indies will be not allowed them to have anything positive.
