ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

That is not possible  to emit corruption from the team of Pakistan and from the World cricket. Pakistani cricket is destroyed due to corruption of big persons and also Politics played vital role to destroy Pakistani cricket. Pakistani cricket could be best but many selectors and coaches occupied the seats which they didn't deserve. When Imran was a PM of Pakistan ,he made Rameez Raja as a chairman of cricket board but he took bad decisions for the country and he damaged major. Then Amir is in the team but his performance is zero but he has reference of Wahab Riaz because they did work together and Wahab supported Imad and Amir . This politics is damaging the Pakistani cricket.We saw the performance of Pakistani team in World cup that was zero and Pakistan could be out of the next World cup.

Corruption is the main reason, along with nepotism. Because political interference is there for almost all the Asian teams (including India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka). BTW, I am quite surprised with your outburst against Rameez Raja. He was the one who rescued PCB. The PSL was about to implode as a result of fights between the franchise owners and PCB, but Rameez stepped in and came up with a deal that is acceptable to everyone. Also he was the one who finalized the media rights deal a few years back, which significantly boosted the PCB revenues.

There is politics in every country's cricket but politics is always a bit more in Asian teams. When the power is there, the team is made according to its wishes, the players get opportunity in the team as per their wish, but forgetting all this, if everyone appoints players thinking about the country, then every team will definitely do well. We can talk about Bangladesh, we can talk about Pakistan, a lot of dirty politics is done about cricket in these two countries. Basically because of this dirty politics in cricket career of many talented cricketers are destroyed and many unqualified cricketers are sitting in the position of qualified cricketers. All these countries do not think for a moment to make a player who does not deserve a chance in the team as the captain of the three formats. If we think about our country, we must come out of this kind of dirty politics

It is not easy to come out of this dirty politics in cricket in such countries because there you will find this bad politics in every department and not just in the sports. So in order to eliminate this, the whole structure needs to be changed. Again this is not possible because those who are in control do such things, so the common man has no play in all this.

By the way, even with such corruption, the Asian countries produce such big players which shows that there is no shortage of talent and with all these politics, the players show their level of performance. For example, i heard a lot of politics in the Sri Lankan country but yet they were able to win the World Cup.
If they were the first world country, they would have produced better cricketers than the Australian and England ones.

In today's 13th Match of Scotland vs Oman team, Oman team came to bat and scored 123 runs in 38 overs losing 10 wickets. I think the run target given by Oman team was not the right run to win. Scotland team batsmen easily crossed this run.  will win the match.Scotland team need 25 runs to win this match.

They lose badly in T20 World Cup and Rameez Raja provide base for the destruction of Pakistani cricket. Pakistani Cricket is over and there is no talented persons in International cricket. Many talented players are not selected due to lack of reference. Azam Khan is referenced player but he has no body language like a cricket player . A cricket player should be fit person but he seems to be resler and didn't play role in winning any match and he is not match winner player. Imad Wasim is also referenced player and he is still in the team after bad performance against India team.He could not play well in the World Cup ang againt India he could be match winner but he didn't do that.

Exactly this is a big deal. And PCB is in it. They are hosting the champion trophy therefore they can't focus on the U19 teams and can't consume the funds on them because they have a big challenge ahead means the champion trophy. We know that how the economic situation of the Pakistan and in this situation the security the management means everything has some cost. So in this situation PCB can't focus on U19 teams. But that's right that the U19 teams are the real future of a main cricket team. I hope after the champion trophy PCB will focus on new talents.

Anyway guys PCB has proposed a champion trophy 2025 schedule to ICC and I am damn sure it gona be official and it's a dream comes true moments for paksitan because in 2000 century it will be for a first time that paksitan hold such big ICC event, more than 850+Crore INR will be spent on all stadium renovations and all proration so paksitan will not compromise on anything to hold such big tournament, I know some indian journalist has making things spicy to attract audience by making a fake statement regarding BCCI that they will not allow his team to move to paksitan for Champion trophy but just like from some source if by chance Indian team didn't visit then maybe sirilankan will took his place but paksitan has given a bold statement that no matter indian will visit or not but tournament venue will be just and only paksitan,
So guys what do you think will indian team visit or boycott the CT25, but to be honest many want Virat in paksitan and just like Rajeev Shukla announced that boycotting CT25 is base less there is no statement from official till now

Proposed Champions trophy 2025 Schedule

Hindukush Strikers has very strong team and they are leading in the point table too because they have 6 points. They played 3 matches of this season and they won all the matches.
In the yesterday match their performance was exceptional. First in bowling they performed really well and they collected all wickets when Maiwand Champions reach 172 runs. 173 runs target was not a good target. Hindukush Strikers started their turn and they lost one wicket when they chased the target. Abdul Malik played really well and he made 90 runs. And his partner Rahmat Shah also played well and he made 69 runs. I hope Hindukush Strikers will continue their performance and they will win this league too.

These days it is rare to see the ODI matches. Today is the match of Oman and Scotland and these are the matches for the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 2024/27.
This time, the match just starts so both teams are in level. Oman is doing batting first and in the first over, Oman made not too many runs just four but at the same time, it was good because it is One Day International match not a T20.

Kashyap Prajapati and Pratik Athavale opened the matches usual for the Oman team. The second over was not good for them, I think they have to try to make the good runs at the first powerplay around at least 40 or 50  without losing any wickets then it would be great for the next overs and for the next batsmen too.

Scotland is a strong and well-perform team.  And it is against a weak Oman team.  In which the team of Scotland has played the match with a lot of hard work and struggle.  Oman batsmen had 50 overs from which they scored 123 runs which is very easy.  The Scotland bowler did very well and took wickets and stopped runs and got easy targets for his batsmen.  Their batsmen have scored 100 runs in 13 overs.  Their batsmen need 23 runs in 36 overs which has become very easy for them.  This match has proved too easy for Scotland.  Everyone could have predict this match.  Congratulations to Scotland on this win.  Congratulations to them in advance as they need 30 runs and will win the match.Oman bowlers can not do anything now, if their batsmen had given more targets, then victory could have been theirs.
