ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[|MINER|]

Well.. get adjusted with that. Players such as Smith, Warner, Hazlewood and Starc have either retired entirely, or from certain formats. Now the burden has to be taken up by the younger players like Cooper Connolly, Matt Renshaw, Cameron Green, Xavier Bartlett and Nathan Ellis. The fact that they are unable to perform well against Bangladeshis at the dustbowl in Mirpur should not be held against them. The conditions are outright hostile, and even players of the calibre of Virat Kohli would struggle to bat there. These should be considered as temporary setbacks. 

Actually I agree with you that the Bangladeshi team always do good in this pitch condition especially on the mirpur stadium but I don't think this is only the reason the Australian team lost against Bangladesh team by disasterly.

Instead, I would like to say that the Australian team is basically a disaster right now, in other words, this situation has been prevailing in the Australian team since the previous international tournament. If we look at the previous series with Pakistan, the Australian team also lost badly there. So I would not call it a temporary set back, the Australian team is really not a strong team like before.

[ThemePen]

It was total disaster lost three wickets for total of 0 runs in the first two overs.
But credit be it to the Bangladesh as they entirely deserved this boost. Taskin and Mustafizur had ability of two stars with ball and to dominate an opponent of size of Australia at home, is huge for their confidence. They have once again shown their skill in such situations. It is easy to see 3-0 sweep and tempting to go along with it, but Australia do not lie flat for this long. Corners are turned and they are a proud team, typically fighting back the most. A desperate Australia side is always dangerous and Bangladesh dare not slow down in the third game.

Most teams have one or two main bowlers but Bangladesh keep changing their fortunes, one match Rana, the next Tanvir and Taskin. Such unpredictability is very difficult to plan for. With movement that new ball bowlers received in early stages, it doesnt matter how strong batting line up is on paper, the best batsmen find it difficult to stay alive. It is an illustration of where this team is going when they win series with a game to spare against Australia. This success was surprise a few years ago but Bangladesh are definitely putting something together for white ball cricket.

What a desperate began of Australia, their three top orders were out without making any changes on the scoreboard. It was  crucial moments because team was heading slowly to lifting the target. 81/6 on twenty one overs indicating poor grip on the game. Labuschagne and Bartlet came late but both reached out their fifties, that's the momentum audience was waiting eagerly. But due to rain match reduced to 42 overs and 195 runs target set out DLS method for Bangladesh. Bangladesh Reply was historic, they clinched the match with their outstanding performance. Although Tanzid Hasan disappointed today, but rest of the batsman showed resistance. They played each ball confidently and reached out the results. Bangladesh outstandingly wrapped the match in just 35 overs and celebrated their memorable moments wit.

Bangladesh cricket team is looking strong because their players are playing in the different leagues of the World and all players are giving their best for the team which is best for the team health and if only one player is playing in the team and whole team is dependent on only one player, that is dangerous for that team because that player could be out in important match And team could collapse so players should try to give 100 percent effort for the team to win the match. Taskin Ahmed took 1st wicket of the match and he applied pressure from the first ball of the match and Mustafizur Rahman took next 2 wickets after that . Australia team throw their 3 wickets with no score which was imbarassment for that team.

The match was reduced to 42 overs from 50 overs due to the DLS method, which occurred due to the rain. And I think if the DLS method did not occur, still in that case Bangladesh was most likely to be named the winner, their progress is so good. Bangladesh is improving in every format and in every match we see them in a different kind of aggressiveness. It was excellent for them to win the series, and still they have a chance to dominate in all three games and whitewashing Australia is not so far.

LOL.. it has nothing to do with Bangladesh improving. They won just because of the dustbowl at Mirpur. Even India will struggle to win there, as the pitch strongly favors the bowlers. Bangladeshi bowlers such as Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman made maximum use of it, and the Australian batsmen couldn't offer any resistance. One more match remain, and it will be played at the same venue. But the series is at 2-0, and already won by Bangladesh. BTW, it was nice to see Soumya Sarkar back in the team. He did well, given the pitch conditions (42 from 47 balls).

BAN role is included in this but before that, we don't need to explain how efficiently and intelligently they played against PAK. BAN nice and intelligent play shows us that they have used some intelligence to play with AUS and make them useless against their own opponents. The second game was equally stupid for AUS because BAN knew this game super than the AUS players and they were more capable of playing in their own stadium, so they will complete the game with their own intelligence. There are many reasons for this, AUS useless play is also proven in this and they have been playing like this in their 5 games.

[Smack That Ace]

A match between Canada vs USA is being played now. The Canadian team is in a good form. They won against netherlands a few  days ago. Although the match was quite  competitive. Canada is performing well in today's match as well.

Canada  has managed to score 142 runs in 30  overs. Canada has lost only three wickets. This is undoubtedly a  good total. If Canada can somehow score up to 280 , they will definitely win. If they score 200+ , the match will become competitive.

Here back to back couple of wins for the Bangladesh team, it was significance the way they dominated and congratulations to them on winning the series against Australia, They have finally completed another milestone in their entire history before they also achieved the honor of beating Pakistan and now also beat twice in a row to an one of the SENA (South Africa, England, New Zealand and Australia) team.

Top order was clearly failed, they lost early wickets that why the pressure was started to build up in the middle order which results they also not  able to stable the game and make the come back from that stage. Only Josh Inglis was standing for some time but not for such long. Too many wickets loss in the middle orders, then Marnus Labuschagne and Xavier Bartlett hit fifty but still that effort wasn't enough for them to win the match.

Anyone following the match between Canada and the United States of America at King City? This is the 112th match of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2. At innings break, Canada has reached 275/8. American bowling completely failed, with Saurabh Netravalkar and Shubham Ranjane going for more than 6 runs per over on a surface which offered a lot of support for the bowlers. If Canada wins this match, they will be able to (temporarily) overtake Nepal. Canada has 23 points from 26 matches, while Nepal has 24 from 28 matches. It doesn't mean a lot, since both the teams will fail to finish at top-4.

I won't say that the United States team bowlers are completely failed because even then the Canada team took 275 run I don't think it's like a mountain target even it is average as good target.

I personally think that if United state of America They can maintain a run rate of 5 without losing wickets in the power plays and then go towards the last over if there are wickets, then they can win. Moreover, the American batting line-up is stronger than the Canadian batting line-up, so it cannot be completely said here that the Canadian team will win this match.
Anyway USA started their betting and they took eight run after 1.3 over

This is definitely a big achievement for Bangladesh. I see this series against Australia differently. There is a big difference between the previous series wins and the current series win. Although Bangladesh's pitch was popular for spin attack in the past, Bangladesh has won the series against Australia in the current series by creating a comparatively batting-friendly or bouncy pitch. More importantly, they have paralyzed Australia's batting attack.

In the first two matches of the series, Australia was unable to score 200 runs on the scoreboard. Although Australia's quota of 50 overs was not completed in both innings. But it must be said that the Australian batting unit has held its own against Bangladesh's bowling unit. There is only one more match left in the ODI series, Australia has to win the last match to save its honor. We may see changes in both teams in the last match, Michell Marsh may join the XI.

Congratulations Bangladesh team won Odi series and 3 rd game will be played tomorrow. Even if Australia team wins this game, winner of series will not change. In 2 nd odi game, Australia team won toss and they selected batting first and gave bowling opportunity to Bangladesh team. Australia team set 187 runs target in 42 overs by losing 8 wickets. Marnus batsmen batted well and made half century 55 runs in 85 balls and hitted three 4s. Bangladesh team again beated Australia team and chased down target in 35 overs and won 2 nd odi game by 5 wickets. Mustafizur bowler got player of game award because his bowling effort was very helpful and took down 3 wickets in 7 overs and gave 27 balls. Tanzid opener batsmen did not bat well but second opener batsmen Soumya performed great and made 42 runs in 47 balls and hitted five 4s and two 6s. Congratulations Bangladesh team won this 2 nd game by eaisly and this is 2 nd series that Australia has lost.

Australia team throw their 3 wickets with no score which was imbarassment for that team.

Apart from this, their batsmen have changed themselves and have improved themselves by eliminating their shortcomings, so they have become strong to defeat even a bigger team. If this continues to be beneficial for them, then we can go ahead and know them as a good and strong team. They should not put everything on one and even if they are weak, they should work together and when it is their turn to play, they should work hard and make efforts so that every batsman and bowler can make their team successful. The way Bangladesh is playing is good, but it should gradually get good. The Australian batsmen gave a good target to defeat Bangladesh, but the Bangladesh batsmen were not ready to give up, due to which they achieved the target and succeeded.

Although the United States of America team is slightly ahead of Canada in terms of cricket, their start was not very good. They lost their three wickets for just 54 runs and now have scored 131 runs and lost four wickets. Since the target is 275, I would say that the United States of America is not yet risk-free because they still need 145 more runs but have only six wickets left.

However, one thing the United States of America has going for them here is that their current run rate and required overs rate will help them a lot towards the end if they have enough wickets.

A match between Canada vs USA is being played now. The Canadian team is in a good form. They won against netherlands a few  days ago. Although the match was quite  competitive. Canada is performing well in today's match as well.

Canada  has managed to score 142 runs in 30  overs. Canada has lost only three wickets. This is undoubtedly a  good total. If Canada can somehow score up to 280 , they will definitely win. If they score 200+ , the match will become competitive.

Yeh the Can team batted very well and scored 275 runs in which all the players from the beginning to the end did their duty and strengthened the overall score. The USA bowlers could not stop the increasing score of Can. They used to take wickets, but the Can batsmen did not come under the pressure of falling wickets, that is why their score became very strong. The game is still going on. 125 runs are required on the third ball of 21 overs. In fact, this game is going to be very competitive. If no more wickets fall, USA will winning this game very easily. Very mediocre bowling is being seen from Can and the game seems to be going into the hands of USA. Can can change the course of the game if it wants.

Thus the match is over and USA won this match. Canada managed 275, which was an impressive score on paper but did not hold in chase to the end. USA had more than plenty of opportunity to run after it and that is sign of how shaky Canada bowling was on the day. Canada batsmen did their job, which is just as well because they were not to be faulted for not getting scared when wickets fell and making a large score. But in 50-over cricket one needs both sides to perform and the bowling was just too easy to hit. USA have been making fast steps as cricketing nation. Canada bowling needs to be fixed in order to be able to present steady threat to the likes of USA.

The match was reduced to 42 overs from 50 overs due to the DLS method, which occurred due to the rain. And I think if the DLS method did not occur, still in that case Bangladesh was most likely to be named the winner, their progress is so good. Bangladesh is improving in every format and in every match we see them in a different kind of aggressiveness. It was excellent for them to win the series, and still they have a chance to dominate in all three games and whitewashing Australia is not so far. 

LOL.. it has nothing to do with Bangladesh improving. They won just because of the dustbowl at Mirpur. Even India will struggle to win there, as the pitch strongly favors the bowlers. Bangladeshi bowlers such as Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman made maximum use of it, and the Australian batsmen couldn't offer any resistance. One more match remain, and it will be played at the same venue. But the series is at 2-0, and already won by Bangladesh. BTW, it was nice to see Soumya Sarkar back in the team. He did well, given the pitch conditions (42 from 47 balls).

Mirpur's Dustbowl and seamers making a mickey out of Aussie's batters? Sounds contradictory to me lol

Think Bang Bros deserve some credit and one should blame the pitch every time. Maybe opposition had shitty batting line up.

1st ODI, Afghanistan tour of India

Finally, today will be the first one-day game between Afghanistan and India. Now, if we look at some of the updates for Afghanistan, the major and most important update is that Rashid Khan has come back to support Afghanistan in all the One-day matches. By the way, Rashid Khan played IPL a lot; that's why he knows how to trick all the Indian batsmen and has ideas about their weaknesses. I think if Afghanistan is to win this match, Rashid Khan has to perform.
