Mah-E-Par Stars vs Hindukush Strikers

Today in Ghazi Amanullah Khan Regional One Day Tournament competition total 10 matches were successfully completed and finished and in 10th match both Mah-E-Par Stars sqaud was participated for clash. In this match,Mah-E-Par Stars squad proved to be very powerful squad against Hindukush Strikers sqaud because their sqaud achieved big scores Defeating target of total 264 scores and Hindukush Strikers sqaud bowling inning performance was very bad and they did not defend their target and secure victory. In begining of Mah-E-Par Stars sqaud batting inning, both starter batters Masood Gurbaz and Naveed Obaid  displayed very impressive performance with strong partnership in batting and hit mid century and collected 52 and 71 scores respectively. Mah-E-Par Stars  squad members achieved the Defeating target of 264 by 76 deliveries and 6 wickets batter. Fareed Ahmed and Gulbadin Naib both bowlers picked up the total 6 wickets and each bowlers picked 3 wickets with showing Fantastic performance.

The Hindu Kush batsmen were not able to give a tough target to the Mahapara batsmen.  If their batsmen were to target more than 300, it was not going to be difficult for the Mahapara batsmen.  Because their batsmen were quick and efficient from the start.  Yes, if their bowlers had some courage and effort, they could have stopped the runs.  But it could not happen and Mahapara batsmen won the match by completing the target of 265 in 37 overs.  Mahapara bowler has also given a good match effort.  Their bowler bowled out the entire team in 48 overs and achieve an easy target of 264 and their batsmen work hard and fought hard to score runs and win the match.  Hindukush team is a good team but they fail to prove their perform in this match and will lose the match. If their batsmen were fast and their bowlers stop the runs then they could have won the match.  But Hindu Kush could not succeed in this.

Yes you are right. HinduKush Strikers was not good in batting. They just made 264 runs and they lost all wickets. From Mah E Par Stars Gulbadin Naib and Fareed Ahmad was good in bowling and they both collected 3 3 wickets. And Zahir Khan collected 2 wickets. But score was very low which Mah E Par Stars chased easily. In their batting line Naveed Obaid was good who made 71 runs. And after him Hashmatullah Shahidi was good who made 64 runs. And if we take a look on the points table so we will see that these two teams are on top in the point table with 8 8 points. So I think they will play the final too. And just like today match Mah E Par Stars has ability to win the trophy.

Indian pacer Mohammed Shami has come up with some controversial comments regarding his exclusion from some of the matches in 2019 ODI World Cup. He was dropped despite picking up 13 wickets from 3 matches. Shami was quite hostile against both Virat Kohli and the coach Ravi Shastri. I won't be very surprised. The combination of Kohli and Shastri did pushed out a number of good players from the Indian team and replaced them with substandard players who would act as their yes men.

Watched the whole interview (if anybody wants they can watch here, it's in Hindi though) — found nothing controversial, and what hostility are you talking about? There was no mention of Ravi Shashtri in whole interview while there were only brief moment of him talking about Kohli that too of different subject and that was him bowling to Kohli in nets.

Namibia won the match by 6 wickets against oman. Many were expecting Oman to won the match as many talented players in their squad who showed good performance in T20 World Cup. But Namibia archived the victory against oman team. Namibia won the toss and opted to fielding. So Oman went to bat first but their starting was disappointing enough as their top batsman Kashyap & Pratik got out with lower runs. Although Khalid Kail and Zeeshan Maqsood both did half century and scored 51 runs. And oman total Score was 233-8 runs which was a fair score for ODI match where Ben Shikongo got 4 wickets alone. Afterwards Namibia started batting and they able to surpassed Targeted runs which was set by oman. They scored 234-4 runs where Jan Frylinck(73) and JJ Smit(44) performed good enough behalf of the team. And won the match finally

One another match of ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 competition was finished today and in this match both Oman squad and Scotland squad participated for fighting. Oman sqaud condition was not good in this competition and their played total three matches but their squad did not win any single match. But Scotland situation was better than. Oman sqaud and today match, Scotland squad defeated Oman sqaud with massive difference of overs and wickets. Their bowlers were very confident in this match and they beated the batter Oman squad with their bowling skills and Oman squad batters wiped out all wickets at 91 scores which seem very easy to achieve and emerged victory. This would be happened only the help of this bowler Charlie Cassell because his bowling skill was very impressive and he picked up total 7 wickets and restricted the batter of Oman sqaud at low Defeating target. Scotland squad was simple achieved total scored of Oman sqaud, Richie Berrington and Brandon McMullen both batted great in batting inning and collected 37 and 24 scores respectively.

Today a game which was played between Oman vs Scotland at Dundee we have many records broken by 26 years old young Scottish debutant with his bowling he took 7 for 21 which are best for any debutant bowler in ODI history, and he also took 2 wickets in his first ever over in ODI which is another record for this youngster.

Due to this amazing performance we have Oman bowled out on 91 in 21.4 overs which was really poor from them and Scotland able to chase this target in just 15.2 overs with they won match by huge margin of 8 wickets after this win now they are having third spot in ICC MEN'S CRICKET WORLD CUP LEAGUE 2 behind Canada and Namibia.

UAE and Oman yet to win any game after having three games each with this look like we are going to have them at the bottom of league table for long time because things are looking not favourable for them.

Wao what a performance delivered by this Scottish pacer in his debut just like you guys explained, I know it's against weak team but for records and achievements it's doesn't matter it will be count as like any other, Scotland batting line-up has already proved Thier strength and potential in recent world cup against several quality like England but now their bowling side are also improving with time to time and that really awesome for Scotland fan because soon their team will improve his number on standing table. Anyway oman really played awful and unable to Handel even single player spell and thrown out all of his important wickets before adding any significant contribution and thus lose the match but to be honest Thier defeat were almost confirmed from start of the match.

Charlie Cassel made the debut for Scotland today, and immediately entered his name in the record books. His figures from today's match were 5.4-1-21-7. This is the best ever performance by a debutant bowler in ODI cricket. The previous record was held by Kagiso Rabada of South Africa, who returned 8-3-16-6 against Bangladesh during his debut. Cassell played this match only because pacer Chris Sole withdrew from the squad as a result of personal reasons. And at one point Cassell had unbelievable figures of 1.3-1-0-4.

Exactly Scotland performed really well in the yesterday match. And the only reason of this match winning is only one man. Charlie Cassel. He is the one man army of this match and he collected 7 wickets. And he collected these 7 wickets in 6 overs. He deserved the title of man of the match.
Well in total Oman has collected only 91 runs. And that was not a good score. And Scotland chased that target with in 17.2 overs. This match was creating a feeling of T20I match means I was thinking that may be I am looking at the stats of T20I match.

Scotland team performance is very admirable. I appreciate the bowling of Scotland team especially you have mentioned a player Charlie Cassel. His performance was excellent. He destroyed 7 players of  Oman team and due to this Oman just managed to make only 91 runs. In which Pratik Athavale  the only one who made 34 runs.
When Scotland started their turn so I was thinking that they will chase the target without any loss but they also lost 2 wickets but they chased the target because the target was not high. Well I appreciate the performance of Scotland team and congratulate them on their massive win.

In bowling side, Scotland bowlers also supported their sqaud to secure victory in this match and Michael Leask picked up 4 batter wickets with 9 overs.

Scotland is playing amazing in this match and won the match. Nambia lost the match but their recent match effort was very good . Scotland played a good match their performance was impressive. Everyone showed great skill in their team played really well. Namibia they will continue to play better in the upcoming matches for elimination in this tournament. They seem to be in great form and playing exceptionally. I was also disappointed from the performance of Namibia. Scotland also has the potential to win this tournament but Namibia need more hardworking. Scotland won this match by 47 runs. Scotland total runs for 290  and won the match. Namibia total runs for 235 and lost the match. The 15th match between Scotland and Namibia at the country forthil stadium. Namibia won the toss and batting first. The best batting performance in Scotland man team was by George munsey scored 91 runs and 62 balls hitting 13 fours and  3 sixs.

Whenever I watch the match between Scotland and Oman I always predict that Scotland will win the match.  The main reason is that I know the performance of Scotland and Oman.  Even if the Scottish team loses the match I don't feel sorry.  Scotland team works hard and struggle in the match and win the match.  And in this match too, Oman batsmen have scored only 91 runs in the 50 over innings.  And it turned out to be a very easy win for the Scottish batsmen.  And their batsmen won the match by scoring 95 runs in 17 overs.  And it was the role of their bowler in the actual victory.  If not for their pressure and wickets, the match would not have reached this extent.  I give Oman the ability to say well done every time.  Because I have watched many matches between them and most of them Oman lost.  Their batsmen need to improve their pace and give a difficult target with good performance so that the next team's batsmen cannot complete the target and they can easily match.

Yes in past game, Scotland won the match with amazing gameplay and their performance have been outstanding and Scotland team is proved to be strong team. The poor batting performance in the Oman man team was by  Bilal Khan Scored 0 runs and 2 balls  hitting 0 fours and 0 sixs with some other batsman and I expected that these batsman shakes some energy and set competitive record . Bilal Khan played a very bad match for Oman. Their whole team players need to work hard now.the 16th match between Scotland and Oman was held at forthill stadium. Scotland won the toss and batting first. He only conceded 5 runs in 36 balls and took 1 wicket.Scotland won the match by scoring 95 runs while Oman set only  91 runs record .

In ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 series, 16 th game was played between Oman team and Scotland team. Really in this game, Oman team played poorly in batting lineup and Oman team set 91 runs target in one day game total 50 overs. Scotland team bowlers really showed amazing effort with bowling lineup struggle. C.Cassell wonderful effort was showed in this game because he took down total 7 wickets and this one was the big record in history to take 7 wickets. Due to his brilliant bowling effort he got a player of game award. Oman played total 3 games and out of 3, Oman team lost all games. Scotland team played in series very well and in this game, Scotland easily chased down all target and won the game. R.Berrington played good in batting and he scored 37 runs in 43 balls and B. McMullen also performed good with scoring 24 runs in 28 balls both players were not dismissed. Congratulations Scotland to win this game and hope in next games their team will perform same like these games.

Yes that was an amazing match. Especially the bowling of the Scotland team. And if we will talk about the bowling of the Scotland so there will be a prominent name Charlie Cassell who collected 7 wickets. Just due to him Scotland won that match. Oman made only 91 runs. Which Scotland chased in 17 overs. Scotland also lost 2 wickets in this small target. Congratulations to Scotland team.

The biggest joke is that Charlie Cassell was a last minute replacement. He was included in the playing XI only because Chris Sole withdrew due to personal reasons. Anyway, there is no doubt that Scotland is the strongest associate team at this point. In reality, they are much stronger than second division full member nations such as Ireland and Zimbabwe. Time has come to give them full member status, as they have been performing consistently over the years (and that too with native players).

We are having good development in few countries cricket, but now it's time we have changes because ICC already give full member status to Ireland and Afghanistan which is surely not good deal for these countries because they are not able to perform as expected and things are not going ideal for this status as well.

Just because of this is the correct time to have changes and reduced countries for test format with we need to have 14 to 16 teams for ODI and 18 to 20 for the T20I because with this we will be able to have improved quality and better number of games for them in every year. Allowing more countries as full for all format is surely not good because we have few countries which are not able to give their best in all formats even recently we are lacking quality and consistency from countries which are having enough system and funds for these formats due to domestic issues.

Namibia vs Oman

Today another match of ODI competition which is playing among these sqauds Namibia, Oman, Scotland. Today second last is ongoing among Namibia squad against Oman sqaud and after this match, last match still remain for bat and this match will play among Scotland squad against Namibia sqaud. If I guess in today match who will win this match then I choose Namibia sqaud because Oman sqaud condition in their matches were very bad with losing all previous matches. Right now, Oman bowlers are displaying very good performance and Their bowlers picked up 4 wickets of Namibia batters and put in danger zone because Namibia completed almost half innings and their batters collected just 86 scores with lost 4 wickets. I feel that This match is in hand of Oman sqaud if their bowlers restricted whole Inning of Namibia sqaud below 150 scores their sqaud will surely got points with win this match.

I feel that This match is in hand of Oman sqaud if their bowlers restricted whole Inning of Namibia sqaud below 150 scores their sqaud will surely got points with win this match.

Considering the past matches, Namibia is performing quite well in the ODI format. However, according to the statistics of Oman's past matches, Oman have played three matches before without winning even one. However, in today's match, Namibia is not moving with much pace, run rate below 3.5. The fifth wicket partnership of Malan Kruger and JJ Smit is trying to turn things around. All Oman bowlers are bowling well and Namibia put the batsmen under a lot of pressure. At the end of 41 overs, the collection of the Namibian team is 140/4. There are only 9 more overs to bowl, but if the run rate doesn't pick up now, it will be very difficult for Namibia to cross 200 runs. But I think if Namibia go above 200 then it will be very tough match for Oman as Namibia have some quality bowlers in their team.

[Bitcoin_people]

Namibia vs Oman, in today's match, Namibia team is batting in the first innings, they have already lost 5 wickets. Michael van Lingen is in great batting form he scored 40 runs off 55 balls unfortunately he couldn't make his half century. Malan Kruger is in batting form at the moment, he is fighting hard for the team and is batting towards a good score. Malan Kruger scored a half-century of 51 off 77 balls, but he looks set to do better for the team. However, if the Oman team can bowl well in today's match, the Namibia team will not be able to score too many runs. At the moment, Namibia's collection of runs is 168 in 46 overs for the loss of 5 wickets, compared to today's match, it looks like they won't be able to put up a big score.

You said correct  ,  In cricket  there should be less teams in T20 World Cup, ODI World Cup and Champion trophy. We observed pamp in Bangladeshi cricket before 5 years when they were host of World Cup . Bangladeshi team and Afghanistan team are of same calliper and they could not maintain their performance and they could not win the World Cup . Afghanistan International cricket team played well in last tournament but they could not win the semi final . We know that Afghanistan team is not that kind of team that will win the the world cup. Same case we saw when we found Bangladeshi team as a host of Asia cup before 5 years and they played final of Asia cup and they lose the final against India easily.ICC need to think about that otherwise we will see that kind of opponent in final match.
