Second test match between Bangladesh and Zim has started and at the end of day 2, Zimb were 25/1 trailing by 497 runs. This would be huge task and the first task for Zimbabwe would be avoid follow on. Considering it is the Bangladesh home ground things would not be very easy for the Zim to score such huge total.


To be honest I can't see Zimbabwe avoiding the follow-on, that's also if Bangladesh decide to enforce the follow-on if it comes to that as not many teams now days enforce the follow-on. This test match could be over in 4 days, it all depends on how well Zimbabwe bat later today.

I don't think we can expect a big change from this Zimbabwe batting line-up. They have already lost the five batsmen and left only a couple of the main batsman and rest all bowlers so if Bangladesh bowl well then can take rest of the wickets in less than another 50 runs. Zimbabwe for a long time they didn't improve their performance and now their performance is worse than some of the new international teams.

The match between Pakistan and New Zealand tied due to rain and now both the teams will share the trophy. Very bad luck for Pakistan, as they were about to win the ODI series against New Zealand after 7 years.

Pakistan had made 279 in 50 overs and NZ was 35/1 in 6.5 overs. It was tough for Pakistan to tie the match due to rain and could have won the match as they where bowling quite well. On other hand NZ would find them self lucky that rain just came at the right time else it could have being D/L method applied.

SA won the 3rd ODI by 40 runs and also the series 2-1 against Australia. I really thought the match would go down to the wire but thanks to the great bowling of Rabada and Steyn at the end helped bowl Australia out for 280 runs. I thought that Shaun Marsh played well for his century but he needed to stick around longer if Australia were to win. Anyway congrats to SA on the series win and now the two teams play one T20 on Saturday.

As expected, India Whitewashed West Indies in T20 series, many matches are turning into last ball endings, which makes me think that whether these matches are made like this or what... Anyways, it was an easy bet and won.

The match went till the last ball and this was a exciting match as compared to rest of the 2 matches. This was the actual contest as compared to other matches and also worth watching and full of excitement. Dhawan was named Man of the match for his 92 runs.

Awesome start by Pakistani bowler, Shaheen Shah Afridi. Pakistan has successfully put up a good score and it's not going to be easy for New Zealand to cross the target. Most probably, Pakistan is going to win this one and ultimately win the ODI series against New Zealand after a very long time.

Great total for SA after the poor start, Miller and Faf du Plessis put on a 200 run partnership to put SA in the box seat to win this match however Australia is not going to give up without a fight as currently 191/4 in the 37th over with Shaun Marsh playing well on 84 n/o and Carey on 21 n/o and Australia still have Maxwell to come so if these two can get to 250 runs before losing the next wicket I think Australia is within a good shot at winning the match and the series.

Australia won the toss and elected to bowl first in the 3rd of final ODI match against SA. In the 38th over SA are 170/3 and look in a strong position to at least make 280-300+ runs. Faf du Plessis and David Miller are keeping the SA innings together adter the great start by Australia, if these two can stick around for another 5 overs then SA should get close to the 300 run target.

David Miller changing gear now. he looks dangerous, let see if he can ruin the Starc economy rate. if he does then easy 300 mark.

OZ vs SA 3rd ODI have started and , OZ won the toss and elected to field. SA are 173/3 in 38 overs and Du Plessis and Miller are both playing well and have completed half century. If they stay another 5 -7 overs on the pitch then 300 could be on the cards and for OZ it would be difficult to chase looking at their present situation.

Will there be a twist in tomorrow's match.? I think West Indies will try to do something against India because if they dont then they will be Whitewashed. Also the odds of winning for WI will be high and I am gonna try that.
This make sense because last match of this tour and they already have some heavy defeats so they have to do something very surprising as they are currently world champions of this format they can go for win.

Twist or no twist, Will keep my eye on Ind W vs Pak W match tonight instead of Ind M v WI M

It goes same like two series decider game is playing today,

australia vs south Africa & Pakistan vs New Zealand, both this series is going superb

Australia after losses won the first match and now today decider match will be, Pakistan also won superb.

India vs West Indies match will be dead rubber as India won the 2 T20 matches of 3 match t20 series, so hope that WI win this match and save from white wash.

After around 11 hours, we'll have the final match of the ODI series played between New Zealand and Pakistan. This one will be quite interesting, as Pakistan and New Zealand, both have won each of the first two games and the last upcoming match will decide the winner of the series.

this is the 12th consecutive ODI loss of Pakistan against New Zealand Roll Eyes

if he's being considered as compulsory by PCB for the ODIs, then at least his number should be moved to somewhere in middle-order so that he may not ruin the opening of the match. It'll eventually be done but only after a few more failures.

Just caught the highlights like an hour ago, Fakhar played a decent knock at run a ball. Should help him with his confidence issue. I hope he gets another 50 in the upcoming match, will surely help him get in form.

Indian women cricket team done really amazing there because of they have loss queck wikets in powerplay in that time I thought Indian women team will not cross 140 runs but they did really great give a target of 194 to new Zealand team but they are loss the match what I was excited in end.

Harmanpreet kaur steals the show with 8 sixes. couple of them were huge.


Even when they got banned, I had posted here that the decision was too harsh. A lot of the other players have done the same, and they have escaped with small monetary fines. Then why single out Warner and Smith?

Are you referring to Sachin and Dravid's ball tampering case? Smiley

ICC decision was 5 test ban but CA took this on another level due to public sentiment and players attitude toward the game that they can get away with anything. that tour was already in limelight due to Warner's behavior.

Like I already mentioned before that Ball tempering was always part of the game and each and every team does that most of the players used to get away with a couple of test ban or sometimes only warning but this time CA dropped the bomb on players.

I don't know if anyone of you guys noticed or not but all 3 players are Batsmen who are facing a ban. not a single Bowler got into this mess, especially Starc.

As Flintoff said about Starc after Sandpaper Gate “He’s got the ball in his hands, he’s running in thinking, ‘he’s Wasim Akram’. This ball’s moving everywhere, he’s thinking, ‘I’m cracking it here, I’m doing something which is unbelievable’
