What just happened in the test match between England and Ireland, 20 wickets fell in one day which is crazy to see. I didn't get to watch the match but it would of been good to see as to why so many wickets fell in one day. Can Ireland get the win and put England on the back foot ahead of the Ashes series? Ireland are in a strong position currently leading by 122 runs with England starting their second innings 0/0.

Oh wow, I just had a look at the scorecard and I sure am surprised. Shocked

Jonny Bairstow: ZERO
Chris Woakes: ZERO
Moeen Ali: ZERO
Joe Root: TWO
Jason Roy: FIVE

It seems like Ireland's bowling line-up is improving; gotta see the highlights!
Soon after such a big winning of the world cup England will be watched around. Now giving such a performance is really bad. Another side it shows the improving bowling line up of Ireland. The second day of the match will show what's gonna happen to the match result. A strong comeback is a must in the second innings is a must for England to win the match.

I guess so Ireland will get the win and will take down england badly. That's based on how I see their standings from the previous game they had. Although England had their best players, but I still prefer the courage and teamwork of Ireland. As strong position leads their way to another potential wins, they should be more focus on their team goals.

Considering the T20 team, WI have some strong batting line up once Andre Russell is back. IN T20 WI are the champions only thing is that they lack consistency and not as a unit the team plays. Else it can easily beat some of the best teams.
In the shorter format of the game anyone who has some strong hitters could change the course of the game at any moment, West Indies have some big hitters in their ranks who could change the match in a short period of time. You cannot expect consistency with power hitters and the T20 format is tailor made for power hitters who could smack the ball from the first ball and there are not many players who can do that. I wonder what Bradman could do if they were to play the T20 version of cricket  Grin.

Moreover, the West Indies cricket board should forcefully retire him from the international cricket if he's not willing to provide his services for his original team for some other stupid T20 leagues.
I think that not the right way. A player can play according to their will. Denying to play for the national team does not mean that they can not continue in other international leagues. A player is free to sign up with any team/league.

We have seen AB as an example. The same with football to I think.

One or two expensive over can turn a match in T20 format, West Indies has more benefit on this  Grin
This same statement applies to India too who possess some hard hitters who can finish game on their day. It all comes down to how good each side bowls at the end of the day.
Seem like a lot of us is thinking West Indies can make an impact and win the T20 series :-)

The extra pressure for India is to maintain their standard and perform according to the expectation. This is a huge disadvantage for India. If they can not handle the pressure then they will suffer and if they perform bad in the opening match then game on for West Indies.

Its now difficult to track what people are discussing about cricket. Those who are cricket lovers and does not want to miss any post for cricket will be now have to read 4 threads. 2 already mentioned above and for T20 we have this one  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/t20-and-t20i-cricket-prediction-and-discussion-5102095   Smiley
And the one I am posting now is the main old thread  Cool
I think it's better to maintain this thread only other than any special tournament since this thread is the oldest one. Otherwise, it will look spammy since people will bump each thread regularly which will sometimes be part of spam also.

Royse vai,
This is now getting worse, I think, my personal opinion only. We are getting cross-post which may increase spam as a result after some days. People will discuss the same in both threads.

No sure bud. I think it's only few matches between only two teams to predict win-lose only. A pool like this kind is better when there are more teams like we have seen in IPL and World cup kind of tournament. If anyone has any idea then feel free to propose or start. I will give my full support. I am looking forward to the next big tournament, possibly T20 world cup, champions league, next IPL which are popular for all nations.

By the way, we have now few new and very specific topics for cricketing. Have you noticed these:

Test Cricket Predication and Discussion Thread [self - mod]
ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]
Merging several tournaments like the Ashes and the India-West Indies ODI tournament etc could lead to a bigger pool in this case. Am not sure if you can do that since I never dealt with creating pools before.

Will check out the threads that you mentioned asap. Good to see more and more Cricket related threads popping up. Self-moderating them is another plus point.

Also, will you be starting another pool for the upcoming Ashes and India vs West Indies tournaments Royse? Fun is the priority and I have enjoyed playing in the IPL and World Cup pools recently.

This is true. If West Indies actually win this tournament, I would be genuinely surprised considering the manner in which they played in the World Cup.

The west Indian team does not lack good players. West Indies team has been mismanaged for some years now. But they still can turn the game any side with their individual performances. T20 is a format less predictable than others and a single player can make a difference. So we need to wait and watch how the things turns.
This is true. A single player like Russell or Gayle can make a huge difference in a T-20 tournament, but the manner in which they lost in the World Cup would have crushed their morale and we need to see if they can bounce back or not.

West Indies spend less on cricket, player didn't get paid for a couple of months years ago. They still have some god talents but there's no good mentor.

Its sad to know that gayle will not be playing in series with India. Indian team is already very strong and there was only hope that gayle will give tough time to Indian bowlers. Now with no gayle, West Indies team will be very weak and there would be one sided matches.  Undecided
Gayle is in poor form these days and he will not bring any much good for the team if you think WI is not a good team. Would be a nice series if both team played away series. India will have the benefit of home. Otherwise, in t20, West Indies still a big team.
West Indies is a big team in T20, but they don't have any consistency in the game. If a player starts good then the same gets continued through the match. If the start gets out to the pavilion the same gets followed. This makes them struggle to score reaching an average total. Though it is home benefit for India, West Indies too have got equal winning opportunity.

Back to the Gayle thing, I do not know any update available about his retirement but it's very much predictable that he will retire from ODIs if he can not perform well but for T20s - he is still non-replaceable I think and Gayle should carry on to it.
The problem with all these West Indies players is that they give importance to these domestic T20 leagues than their national side, Gayle is not playing against the series against India is because he is participating in Global T20 Canada tournament, he is a force to recon in the shorter format of the game and he is taking full opportunity to make money while he can by participating in all the T20 leagues around the world who pays good money for him to play.

Gayle is close to 40 and it is not his sole responsibility to rescue the Windies team. The other members should also rise to the occasion, if they want to retain their former glory. You can't even blame Gayle as un-patriotic. West Indies is not a single nation. It is a combined team of more than a dozen smaller countries. So it is not surprising that there is a lack of team bonding.
