ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

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.

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.

This was the 112th match of the series between Canada and the USA team, in which Yuvraj Samra of the Canadian team scored 52 runs and all the other players together scored 275 runs. Nicholas Kirton scored 53 runs, which was the highest score of a player from his team and a total of eight of their players were out. They thought that they would win the match by scoring 275 runs, but this was their misconception. The other team, which was the USA team, seemed more active than them because it took their team 50 overs to achieve the target given by the other team, but they won the match. If we look at their team, which lost five players and here they beat the other team by five wickets, the highest scorer in this match is Milind Kumar, who scored a magnificent 110 runs. Apart from this, the rest is a good performance, due to which the target given by the opposing team was achieved.

Mainly in this match the United state of American team did a brilliant recovery at their batting, even there is starting was not that much solid they did good from the middle order especially the guy who took century Milind Kumar and also another half century from Shubham Ranjane.
After the Canadian team batting score many people over thought that maybe the USA team will going to be lose this match but they worked wrong at this time. And as well Canada also lost the opportunity to push up their rank ahead of Nepal team.

Bangladesh Vs Australia, 3rd ODI

Finally, after a long wait, here we have the third match of the series. Before, in the first two games, Bangladesh dominated a lot; now, they are in a leading position. They have already won the series, but Australia still has a chance to avoid three losses. But before the series, we did not expect Bangladesh to win, and they really surprised us. I am sure a lot of people would have placed the bet on an Aussie win, but they also experienced big losses.

Bangladesh team has come out to bat in the third ODI match even though they have already won two matches in the series and are the series champions. A great achievement for Bangladesh, this win against a strong team like Australia has given them more confidence. Although Australia team will have a chance to win a match in their series today, if they fail to win, then they will definitely lose badly to Bangladesh. Bangladesh team is already batting and they have lost one wicket if Australia team can put pressure on Bangladesh team in today's match then they may have a chance. Most people have bet against Australia but based on their performance, they are not able to show that performance at Bangladesh's home ground at the moment. If Australia team loses today's match against Bangladesh team, then it will be a big loss and a whitewash in the series.

Bangladesh won the toss and chose bat first and now the current run rate of Bangladesh team is approximately 4.9 per over Bangladesh team make 41 runs in 8 over and lost 1 wicket Bangladesh team is going to make a strong partnership and then accelerate the score Australia team is also looking for a wicket Now see which team is perform well in this match.

India has finally won the game, where as Afghanistan also gave an wonderful competition, hopefully in the next games of this series they will have success in just a single game but of course after experience this close battle, India should try to prepare more for the next games maybe they took Afghanistan lightly as they are in their best or prime form that comes one in a billion, back to back wins in tournament, being unbeaten is really rare. 

No doubt Indian team is playing brilliant cricket nowadays but it should not be matter that you won ICC tournament and being unbeaten because every game is a new game and to judge the results before is not a good approach, well hopefully as you said we all want just a single win for Afghanistan, it will really boost their confidence and at the same time Indian pitches has been proven so lucky for the Afghanistan team in the recent years.

Currently, Australia are chasing 44/2 and Shoriful Islam has already taken two big wickets. Spin and the heat adds to the pressure on visiting batsmen and required rate is rising, with things not easy in Mirpur even at the best of times.
At this time it appears to be total sweep. Bangladesh have been better to Australia in all parts of cricket this series and today is no exception. To avoid this, Australia would have to have perfect performance and they are failing already in chase. If they complete this, then we will have historic series for Bangladesh.

For now I think Australia is in better position and they are trying well to chase the target. Australia is playing at the run rate of 5.49 and they required 5.53. They have made 98 runs and lost 3 wickets. Cooper and Marnus are on the pitch and trying to save the wicket. Cooper is at 52 runs and Marnus made 12 runs. If this partnership play longer and save the wicket so I think Australia can win this match. We know Bangladesh has won the series but Australia will try to avoid 3-0.

The Australian team will have to perform well in this match to save their self-respect. Because the Australian team has already lost two matches, it is most important for them to win this match. However, so far the Australian team is slowly moving towards the goal of winning by keeping the wickets under control, the Australian team's opening batsman Cooper Connolly has scored 70 runs in 69 balls. However, if the Australian team can perform like this for some more time, then it can easily avoid being whitewashed in this match. However, the Bangladesh team is not performing well in bowling, so the Australian team's victory seems certain in this match.

AFG is getting better but they can't beat IND, not in the next 5 years for sure unless DL plays its part.

India can have two or even 3 full different squads and still be good enough to beat any team in the world right now, the talent pool is so big and no team can compete with them. Only hiccup is with their Red ball for the same reason, since everyone is focusing on short format the players for test era seems extinct.

3 squads might be overstretch.

Making 2 winning team is doable and 3rd would be extremely competitive and can win against top teams on their best day. It's a same in white ball cricket.

Test squad still going through transition period and will take some time.

3 possible squads and third might be mediocre, especially the bowling, because we don't have much quality in pace beyond a few names other than that every other department can be sorted out.

Test team is in transition, we have been hearing this for a while but still we are not seeing the changes, the selection for test team is based on IPL that is not the right path.

BTW, India won pretty comfortably.

I think, 3rd team won't be mediocre in batting. We have fair amount of batters , finding bowlers could be tricky and headache tho.

Last match against afghanistan could provide some context. Atleast 6 regular ODI players ( Virat, jassi, hardik, pant, kulli and siraj) were missing. Still no load in batting and bowling looked decent and debutant did the job.

Test transition usually take 2-3 years and if there are no replacement ( for particular spot) if not, then more. Take a example of number 3 ( pujara's replacement) and Hardik replacement as seen all rounder ( almost 8 years now). All we did a bit of jugaad with Thakur.

I do have a strong feeling that Australia will win this 3rd and the final ODI and avoid being whitewashed. It is Cooper Connolly who is keep the hopes alive for them as he is batting on 86 and looking quite in a good form. However, Australia would like him to stay till the end as they still need another 121 runs to win. The match is at a critical stage as one or two more quick wickets by Bangladesh and the game will be back in their court.

I don't know what happened to Australia all of a sudden. They haven't done well in the World Cup. They also lost the series against Pakistan a few days ago. Australia lost the first two matches of the ODI series against Bangladesh. It is not known whether they will win the third and final match. If Australia loses the final match too, it will be a huge shame for Australian cricket.

Bangladesh has set a target of 275 runs. This is a pretty good target. Australia's batsmen will definitely have to play well if they want to win. Australia have scored 191 runs in 33 overs for the loss of 4 wickets. So far, the match is under Australia's control. Cooper Connolly is batting very responsibly today. He is unbeaten on 105 runs off 96 balls. Australia needs 84 runs off 102 balls to win. If the Connolly-Green pair can survive the 10 overs at the crease, then perhaps Australia will not lose this match again.

[BitDiscussion]

Australian youngsters are trying to rebuild themselves after losing ODI series against Pakistan and now Bangladesh in the third game at Mirpur. They are chasing a target of 274 and have early losses, but Cooper Conolly and Marnus Labuschagne have a good partnership that bring Australia on track to avoid a whitewash.

Cooper Conolly is doing a good job after reaching out on his career-best score, while veteran Marnus Labuschagne is giving good partnership. Things are now completely under Australian control in this game.

Looking at the current situation, it seems that Australia will win because so far Australia has scored 200 runs for the loss of 4 wickets in 35 overs. Australia needs 75 runs to win in 15 overs and they still have 6 wickets in hand so at the moment the match is in Australia's control. Yes Cooper Connolly has performed brilliantly for Australia and so far he is unbeaten on 111 runs. But today Bangladesh's bowling line could not do so well, except Shoriful, no other bowler could do well.

[Mahdirakib]

What a dramatic end of the 3rd ODI match. Australia should have won the match very easily, but they hardly managed to win the match narrowly. They won the match by 1 wicket only. Australia needed 9 runs from the last 5 overs, they had 5 wickets in hand. Where the set batsman Cooper Connolly was dominating with his performance. Surprisingly they lost 4 more wickets to score the remaining runs. Shoriful Islam bowling performance was magnificent today.

In the end Aussies must be happy that they avoided a 3-0 defeat in ODI series. Cooper Connolly who has previous best score of 61 runs in ODI played today an innings of 149 runs. Aussies won the game just because of Cooper Connolly superb batting today otherwise they would have lost the last game also. Shoriful Islam also bowled best spell of his ODI career by picking 6 wickets but still his team lost the game. Next both teams will play T20I series and Bangladesh need to maintain this form if they want to the T20I series also.

Nahid Rana's brilliant bowling in the first match, Mustafizur Rahman's best performance in the second match and Shariful Islam's career-best 6 wickets in the last match remind us how strong Bangladesh's fast bowling unit is going to be. Where Bangladesh used to create spin tracks in Mirpur at one time, fast bowlers are now ruling.
And talking about the result of today's match, I would say that if Tanjid Tamim had not missed the catch, the result of the game would have been in Bangladesh's favor, but the way Bangladesh's bowlers, especially Shariful Islam, bowled in the end is really commendable.
Bangladesh's bowlers are showing their best performance at the moment, and the batsmen are also returning to their form.
Yes, if they can maintain this consistency, Bangladesh has a chance of winning the series against Australia in the next T20 series.

This match was too close. At one moment, I thought that Bangladesh may win this as well when they lost the ninth wicket at 271 runs with still a few more runs to go and last wicket in hand. Cooper Connolly would have been very disappointed if the Aussies would have lost this one as he made 149 runs and also he missed his 150 runs by just a single run.

Thanks to Adam Zampa and Riley Meredith who were able to make the final few runs and took the Australian team over the line.

[Compromise me]

For now I think Australia is in better position and they are trying well to chase the target. Australia is playing at the run rate of 5.49 and they required 5.53. They have made 98 runs and lost 3 wickets. Cooper and Marnus are on the pitch and trying to save the wicket. Cooper is at 52 runs and Marnus made 12 runs. If this partnership play longer and save the wicket so I think Australia can win this match. We know Bangladesh has won the series but Australia will try to avoid 3-0.

That was a very tough Match for both teams as Bangladesh International cricket team made a good target on board and they tried to defend that target. Tawhid Hridoy played important inning for the team because he made 83 runs for the team and he hit 8 fours in this match. Litton Das played very slow in this match and he should try to play with speed because they should try to make 300 score in this match to be dominant in this match. Cooper Connolly played important inning for the team and he made 149 in this match but after that there was collapse in this match and Australia team could not stop their wickets and Bangladesh team was very close to win this match but they could not win at the end because they are not eligible to handle the pressure of the match.

[Bitcoin_people]

Australia team defended their honor today in this ODI match against Bangladesh and won their last match by one wicket. Cooper Connolly's unparalleled batting performance which brought the Australian team victory, he scored 149 runs in 134 balls. Cooper Connolly opened the batting and took the team to the edge of victory and they won the series 2-1 against Bangladesh. Shoriful Islam bowled brilliantly in the bowling performance of Bangladesh team, he took 6 wickets in total, this ODI series was very exciting. However, in today's match, if Bangladesh team could have dismissed Australia's opening batsman Cooper Connolly early, then this match would have been in Bangladesh's possession, but anyway Bangladesh team also played well.
