Ireland has started their second one-day match against Afghan in an unexpected way. Afghan has already lost the first four-wicket just for 18 runs in 10 overs. Murtagh has done a superb spell for Ireland, bowled five overs and gave just 9 runs and took three wickets and all of them are bowled. Ireland captain is doing a good thing by asking Murtagh to continue his bowling for sixth over. Since he is bowling well so captain needs to ask him to bowl another two overs at least. The current Afghan-run rate is less than 2 runs per over and they need score at least 200+ runs then they can try for winning the match.

Afghanistan openers (Mohammad Shahzad & Hazratullah Zazai) totally collapsed today; the one-down batsman didn't do any good either. The middle-order did perform fine, but they really need to improve their running; two major middle-order batsmen got run-out today. Roll Eyes

Oh well, this win will definitely give a boost up to Irish team for tomorrow's series-deciding match.

I think this win for Ireland makes the series more interesting, Ireland ain't a bad cricket team and will be more competitive with every series they play. I really like seeing these lower ranked teams win as it makes it more interesting to watch instead of the lower ranked teams getting smashed all the time. Well they will need to improve a lot when facing the higher ranked teams such as India, England, Australia etc....

Just to inform everyone, the ACC Asia Cup Qualifier will be starting on 29th August. One team will qualify for the 2018 Asia Cup ODI tournament. The participants for the qualifier tournament are: Malaysia, Hong Kong, Nepal, Oman, Singapore, UAE.

The Asia Cup qualifiers will hold great importance for the countries playing, but I doubt if the larger cricketing world follows these matches. Of course, countries like Bangladesh and Afghanistan have come through these qualifiers and are now regulars at international fixtures. Do any of the book-keepers offer odds for these matches?
Few fiat betting sites offer odds for these matches but mostly one the match day because I check these many time in past right now just two teams looks good for final and these are Nepal and UAE third and dark horse is Oman others are still need some time for have good time in this game.

Apart from Nepal (and to an extent Malaysia), all the other teams are predominantly made up of expats. Teams such as Oman, UAE and Hong Kong normally doesn't have a single citizen in their playing XI. These teams should not be allowed to take part in such tournaments and even if they are allowed, they should be renamed to India B or Pakistan B.

I do not think that renaming this very small teams to PAK Team A / B can serve any purpose. Rather it will just create the confusion. I think Only the countries which have proper cricket setup in their countries should be allowed to take part in asia cup qualifiers , though as often is the case with most of the qualifiers, the matched are mostly boring and they do get any attention other than the playing XI.

Today in first ODI Afghanistan  done great job and now leading this series by 1 - 0 after today match I can say this is going to be one sided series as Ireland has no answer for great spirit of this new promoted team which is doing great job now its just matter of time Afghanistan is going to be one of best teams from Asia and could be much better then few very big teams.

Yes I do think Afghanistan will be a very good team in the next 3-5 years from now, I think it won't take them as long as Bangladesh did to become a big player in cricket. For Ireland its going to take some time before we see them doing well but I think they will also be a great cricket team in time.

IMHO, Ireland team isn't improving at all. They've been playing like this for a long time and haven't been working on their grass root level. Roll Eyes

The whole domestic cricket system of Ireland needs to be restructured completely.

Ireland take on Afghanistan in the first ODI today. Afghanistan dominated Ireland in the T20 series, but I expect ODIs to be more evenly contested. Ireland have had some strong performances against Afghanistan, winning two out of the last 3 matches. However, they lost in the ICC World Cup qualifiers and will want to avenge that.

Let's we have to wait and see just 2 more hours left in the first ODI, Maybe in T20 series Ireland couldn't able to make most so now one-day series is a very good advantage to them in order to prove themselves.

This match has already started. Ireland won the toss and elected to field first and it looks they have taken a good decision. Afghanistan playing their last over and they have scored 225 runs and only last wicket left. It looks Ireland bowlers have done a good work and batsman job to chase these runs. But Afghanistan got good bowlers so need to see how Ireland batsman will manage to chase this total.

Now all eyes again would be set on 4th test match between India vs England as Eng currently leading the series by 2-1. If India can mange to draw or win the match they will still be in series else England will win this series and 5th match would not be much fun then .

Well India have all the momentum heading into the 4th test match and hopefully put up the same performance like they did in the 3rd test match. I think it would be great for the series to see India win and then they play off in the deciding 5th test. The only problem is that we have seen in the past that when India win a test match away from home easily they seem to lose or not play well in the next test match so hopefully they won't let this happen.

Apart from winning and losing the match will be of great tense and it will be a great game of cricket. Since i do not belong to India or England, so i am not favoring any team but i am hopeful to have an healthy and great cricket match between the two rivals. However, I will just back India to win this 4th match, which will make the 5 match, the Final One.

Yes same here, I don't favour any of the teams but like you it would be nice to see India win and make it go down to the wire and both teams fight it out for a series win in the 5th test match. We don't see many 5 test series go into the 5th test match to decide the series so it would be good to see if it happens in this test series and also it will give India some confidence heading into the Australian series later this year where they have struggle and never won a test series in Australia.

Pakistan seamer Mohammad Irfan recorded the most economical bowling figures in Twenty20 history - but still finished on the losing side.

Quote
Irfan took two wickets for just one run in his four overs for Barbados Tridents in the Caribbean Premier League.

The match between India and England will be keenly watched. England managed to win the first two matches, but India fought back in the third match. The series is closely fought and after a very long time. we have a 5 test match series between India and England.
England give every time 5 Matches series last time in 2014 India lost by 3 - 1 but this time many peoples was expecting India will do good and but first 2 tests was completely one sided but third was good fight back by Indians now all eyes on fourth match which is going to played 30 August Southampton which is not good playing place for India as they lost last time very badly hopefully this time they will do some good and try to win

If pitch supports swing bowling then we can't expect much different performance from Indian batters except a couple of guys. So it all depends on what kind of pitch it will be. Also, in last test Indian fast bowlers did a much better performance than expected. But what I feel is England may come back hard in the next match so it will be quite hard for Indian to beat the home team.
