ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

Devastating news incoming for Australia ahead of the Champions Trophy. It looks like Pat Cummins maybe unavailable for the tournament. Also, there is some uncertainty regarding Josh Hazlewood, who is recovering from an injury. In the absence of Cummins, in all probability it will be either Steven Smith or Travis Head who will captain the Australian team. Previously Mitchell Marsh was ruled out of the tournament due to back injury. All that said, Australia will be the favorites to lift the trophy as they have enough player depth.

Pakistan had a terrible time going on in test format at home. They have won only one home series out of last six. Recently PCB hit upon the idea of making spinner friendly pitches to win the series and it worked against England but not against West Indies. So it's not the pitch that's the issue but the performance of the team. Batsmen like Babar Azam and Shan Masood are doing more damage to team then good, it's time for these big names to play domestic and improve there performance while giving chance to your talent in squad.

Not sure it's the rock bottom or we have to see more worse before seeing the trajectory going up.

Pakistan is one of the most unpredictable and interesting cricket team which have good history but sadly their off the ground issues always bring them down while in last few years things were going badly wrong, and now they are having the worst ratings in all formats.

Many good and skilled players which are ready to give their best but sadly due to poor structure and worst management they are not able to perform as they needed now Champions Trophy is big test for them but most chances things could be not as many are expecting because few players are under pressure and not able to give their best in these conditions. I am not sure if they will be having good performance in this Champions Trophy, and they also needed good time to bring themselves back into good position if management able to adopt few good decisions which are looking not easy.

Another exciting series between India and England will be held in the next few days, meaning the ODI series between England and India will be held in a few days. Maybe everyone has observed the recent T20 series between these two teams where India was the more aggressive in terms of performance and statistics. So in this situation we can say that if the England team wants to have any chance of winning against India, they will have to play very well. According to past records, India is still far ahead of the England team, also India has many experienced players in this series, which gives them the best chance of performing well.

Upcoming ODI series between India and England is very exciting and based on their recent T20 series India seems to be in better position. England will need to play their best cricket if they want to compete with India strong performance. In past India has usually been better than England and with experienced players on their team they seem likely to win this series. England will need to come up with good plan to deal with India strengths if they want to have any chance of winning. It will be interesting to see how England responds to challenge and if they can make India work hard to win.

In the T20 series alone, India won four matches and in most of the matches the margin of victory was huge. England didn't do well against India in T20 series so maybe they are planning ODI series but I think ODI series also won't help them much. Young cricketers were in the T20 series but the ODI series will see experienced cricketers so England are unlikely to do well there. There will be wins and losses in the game but I want England to lose with respect even if they lose. Tomorrow we will see the first ODI match between India vs England. The toss will be very important in the first ODI match. Both teams will decide to field first if they win the toss as currently most of the teams tend to field first.

Tomorrow is the first match between India and England in the ODI format. Just England lost the T20 series against India. Also if we look at the head to head of both of the teams in the ODI format, India is winning the last four matches out of 5 matches since 2021. Lost a single match there in 2022, the month was July. However this time I am looking India with more strong players and with more strong names. Finally Virat Kohli is back, in T20 we were missing him but now he is back in the team with hopes.

The first ODI between India and England will start from today. According to my country's time, there are only 13 hours left for the match to start. In the meantime, we have seen a five-match T20 series between India and England in which India won all four. England won one match, but in the fifth match, England lost the worst to India. The first match of the three-match ODI series will be held today and it will be very exciting, but if England can add more experienced players to their team. Also, since India will be playing the ODI series with their experienced players, this ODI series will be more exciting. Let's watch this ODI series and see which team can win the series with their best performance.

India (probable ODI squad):

3 Virat Kohli
4 Shreyas Iyer
5 KL Rahul/Rishabh Pant (wk)
6 Hardik Pandya
7 and 8 two of Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel and Washington Sundar
9 Kuldeep Yadav
10 Arshdeep Singh
11 Mohammed Shami

India's dominant squad against England is very strong. Everyone in the squad is experienced and skilled. That is why there is a possibility of a big defeat for the England team in this series too. If the first 4 players in the squad can play then it is very easy to expect 350+ in the match. The England team's squad has also changed slightly as it was in T20 but I am not expecting anything from them yet.

The India of Rohit and Kohli vs the England of Buttler and Root

Yes, tomorrow is the first match of the ODI format between India and England, this is the ODI series between these two teams. The T20 series between them was completely one-sided as India won all the matches by huge margins, so we are hoping that the ODI series will not be like that. There are some England batsmen who will definitely try harder to play well with a lot of experience. We have probably seen many times that teams that are currently performing very strongly can win matches. We would like to see good performances from some of the England batsmen, such as Joe Root and Buttler. If these players perform well, their team will be able to collect good scores.

Not sure it's the rock bottom or we have to see more worse before seeing the trajectory going up.

After the T-20, ODI and Test humiliation, mix it with the antics of different gangs within the team. I believe they are in a much better space right now where the likes of Babar and Shaheen took a back seat. They'll still lose a few games but that's about it but they are on the right track.

Bumrah is missing, it must be due to an injury he got in the last test of Sydney and if rumors are true then the Indian bowling lineup is cooked for the Champions trophy.

Devastating news incoming for Australia ahead of the Champions Trophy. It looks like Pat Cummins maybe unavailable for the tournament. Also, there is some uncertainty regarding Josh Hazlewood, who is recovering from an injury. In the absence of Cummins, in all probability it will be either Steven Smith or Travis Head who will captain the Australian team. Previously Mitchell Marsh was ruled out of the tournament due to back injury. All that said, Australia will be the favorites to lift the trophy as they have enough player depth.

News that Pat Cummins might not be able to play in Champions Trophy is very bad for Australia chances. It is also unclear if Josh Hazlewood will be healthy enough to play because of injury. But Australia has some strong leaders and either Steven Smith or Travis Head would be good captain if Cummins can not play. It was also problem when Mitchell Marsh had to pull out of tournament because of injury. But Australia has many talented players which should help them deal with these losses. They still have very strong team and they have good chance of winning trophy.

Pat Commins is a very skilled and experienced leader, so the absence of a player like him is bad news for the Australian camp. However, even if Australia's players are absent, there will be no reduction in the strength of their overall squad, as they have a dozen backup players.

I don't think anyone can replace Cummins, he's different breed — skilled bowler, batter and exceptional leader, no one comes close from current lineup imo.

Meanwhile, we have another news from Australian camp, Stoinis announces retirement from ODI format, he was selected for CT earlier now there will be replacement.

After the T-20, ODI and Test humiliation, mix it with the antics of different gangs within the team. I believe they are in a much better space right now where the likes of Babar and Shaheen took a back seat. They'll still lose a few games but that's about it but they are on the right track.

Credit for Shaheen down fall goes to his father in law i.e. Shahid Afridi and if Shaheen continue to follow the advices of Shahid Afridi then his international career will be over very soon. The rivalry of Shaheen and Babar costed Pakistan much in all formats. I would strongly suggest to remove Babar Azam from team because of his bad performance and also promoting nepotism in the team. But it's pay back time for Rizwan to keep Babar in ODI and T20 squad just like Babar did with Rizwan.

Shahid Afridi is control freak and it rubbed on Shaheen as well, There is not much to do and just needs a humbling from the management by dropping. They did in the test and if he continues his antics behind the scenes then should be dropped for a couple of series in White ball cricket as well.  

Babar is not a T-20 player, soon the PCB realizes the better. I won't touch him in ODI and Test tho.

Ind vs Eng

Looks like a batting track and Poms are belting Indians. Hoping for a high scoring chase, hopefully 350+.

Edit

Lol Philly boy just gifted his wicket.

Edit

England's two openers started brilliantly. However, England lost their first wicket for 75 runs and their third wicket for 77 runs. Harry Brook could not add any runs to the scoreboard.

Phil Salt batted aggressively. Phil Salt scored 43 runs off 26 balls. Ben Duckett was able to play an innings of 32 runs off 29 balls. Now there are two experienced players like Root and Buttler at the crease. However, England lost wickets quite quickly. England's run rate is quite good. However, if they cannot survive at the crease, England will not be able to give a big target. I do not see the possibility of England winning if they do not give a big target against India.

[Compromise me]

Another exciting series between India and England will be held in the next few days, meaning the ODI series between England and India will be held in a few days. Maybe everyone has observed the recent T20 series between these two teams where India was the more aggressive in terms of performance and statistics. So in this situation we can say that if the England team wants to have any chance of winning against India, they will have to play very well. According to past records, India is still far ahead of the England team, also India has many experienced players in this series, which gives them the best chance of performing well.

The first ODI between India and England will start from today. According to my country's time, there are only 13 hours left for the match to start. In the meantime, we have seen a five-match T20 series between India and England in which India won all four. England won one match, but in the fifth match, England lost the worst to India. The first match of the three-match ODI series will be held today and it will be very exciting, but if England can add more experienced players to their team. Also, since India will be playing the ODI series with their experienced players, this ODI series will be more exciting. Let's watch this ODI series and see which team can win the series with their best performance.

After England lost the T20 series against India, now the ODI series has started.  In which England are performing quite well this time England can be expected but we should not underestimate the strength of India because they can control England at any time.  England have won the toss and decided to bat first, which they are doing well, their batsmen have 50 overs, if they save wickets and score more runs, it will be their advantage.  Their batsmen have scored 100 runs in 15 overs and conceded 3 wickets to India who are still playing.  If they play the whole innings like this, they can give a target of around 300 which will be strong for India and England will also play hard and well bowling which will benefit them a lot.  England can be strong for India this time but for that they have to good performance which they are doing slowly.

[libert19]

England struggling kind of, especially after Root's departure just now. They had excellent start from Salt-Duckett, Salt fucked up and got run out, soon after Duckett swings and hands over the catch, superbly taken by Jaiswal (literally felt to be copy of Head taking catch of Rohit in ODIWC '23).

England's total in 8 overs was 75/0, in the 11th over England's total was 77/3. The scenario of the match changed in just 3 overs. Harishit Rana gave away a lot of runs. He gave away 26 runs in one over. However, Harshit Rana took two important wickets of Brook and Duckett. England team would have been in a better position now if they had not lost three wickets in a row. The way England started the innings, I thought the team would give a target of 350+ today.

Jacob Bethell and Jos Buttler are batting very responsibly. After 28 overs, England's total is 153 runs for the loss of 4 wickets. Now the main target of these two England batsmen is to stay at the crease. Buttler is unbeaten with 42 runs off 50 balls and Jacob Bethell is unbeaten with 15 runs off 29 balls.

[libert19]

Don't think England is going to give competitive total, not sure what exactly they did wrong but after fiery start they had, they should have definitely done better and should have given target along the lines of 350.

By the way, it's now official that Cummins and Hazlewood are out of Champions Trophy, confirms Cricket Australia. With Cummins not being there, Australia's chances to lift the trophy have decreased significantly.

Experienced batsmen like Ducket, Liam Livingstone and Root are not playing well. If these batsmen could have batted with some responsibility, it would have been very easy for England to collect 300+. Salt, Buttler and Bethel have been able to bat somewhat well.



After 40 overs, England team has managed to collect 206 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. I thought that England would see a bigger score than this. England played very badly in the T20 series. England lost all 4 matches mainly because of bad batting. England failed to bat well against Indian bowlers in the ODI series too. Such a decline is not really expected from a big team like England.

After England lost the T20 series against India, now the ODI series has started.  In which England are performing quite well this time England can be expected but we should not underestimate the strength of India because they can control England at any time.  England have won the toss and decided to bat first, which they are doing well, their batsmen have 50 overs, if they save wickets and score more runs, it will be their advantage.  Their batsmen have scored 100 runs in 15 overs and conceded 3 wickets to India who are still playing.  If they play the whole innings like this, they can give a target of around 300 which will be strong for India and England will also play hard and well bowling which will benefit them a lot.  England can be strong for India this time but for that they have to good performance which they are doing slowly.

Right now England have scored 236 runs for the loss of 8 wickets in 45 overs. But looking at England's performance, it seems that they can score a maximum of 260 to 280 runs today. Right now England have 2 wickets in hand and there are 5 overs left. Meanwhile, if England can give India a target of 280 runs, then I think their first ODI match will be very exciting. For today's match, I will not make any prediction in favor of any team because both the teams are quite strong. Let's enjoy the match till the end and see which team can perform best and win today's first ODI match.
