Ireland wasted a great opportunity yesterday. If they had taken one more wicket, then Pakistan could have been bowled out for less than 200. But the Irish captain put too much faith on the inexperienced Tyrone Kane and he bowled more overs than the experienced pacers Tim Murtagh and Boyd Rankin.

Pakistan vs. Ireland test match started today (from Day 2) after constant rain yesterday. Right now, 268 for 6, while Shadab Khan and Faheem Ashraf still staying & playing pretty good.

This time, Pakistan's middle order made the innings. Usually, if Pakistan's top order fails, the middle-order fails as well, but that didn't happen this time. Asad Shafiq's inning was quite a good one, but captain, Sarfaraz Ahmed, yet once again, played a disappointing innings. He has been unable to get rid of "twenties" in each inning for a while now, if we take a look at his all matches from 2017-2018.
 
Let's see how the second day goes tomorrow.

Pakistan would have been a little bit worried, when they slipped to 159/6. Ireland could have hardly asked for a better start to their debut match. The continuous rain the previous day would also have helped the Irish bowlers. Thankfully for Pakistan, their lower middle order has bailed them out.

Today kkr was on fire setting a target of whopping 245 runs where the top scorer for sunil narine which is funny seeing he's a bowler and not a all rounder , karthik also playing well and was there when the team needed him the most, though even after this win the standing still don't change as kkr has already played 12 matches and mumbai has played 11 kkr would want mumbai to lose the next match otherwise they come back to 5th

the match looks like fixed without a doubt, they were cruising really well when chasing and suddenly loosing wickets and ends up chocking rather than getting the win
When RCB loosing the matches  -  Match Fixed
When MI winning the matches  - Match Fixed

Grow up mate, you are raising questions on ABD & Virat Kohli, who got 1.76 Million USD and 2.72 Million USD respectively for this season, they already have enough money.
Do you really think that if a match is fixed each and every person in the team will have the knowledge about it, be realistic and do not say fixed matches are impossible, we have seen a lot of fixed matches throughout history and there were matches where i lost money because it was purely fixed and then the investigation years down the line is revealed and we wont get that money back.

I agree, not all the players are booked, but some are booked for sure. IMO, there's a lot of "spot-fixing" in these tournaments that ultimately leads towards the match getting totally fixed.
Before this commercialism Cricket was very good and gentlemen game but now its very dirty because most of players going for good money not giving 100% spot fixing is also very big issue right now which is bringing down very quickly this good game but no one can do this right now as all going for money

What a knock from KKR, 245 our off 6 wickets which is the highest team total of IPL 2018. Short boundaries and pure batting pitches. Thought kxip will chase this down, only if Gayle(out) and Rahul play longer innings. In the meantime, losing 2 key wickets in a row. Kings XI Punjab need 188 runs with 8 wickets and in 84 balls.

When you post a total of almost 250, you have covered almost 99% of the path to victory. Kings XI played well to come within 32 runs of the target. KL Rahul seems to be in fine nick.

Kings XI team tried as much they can dude. None of the team has driving to show that they are best team on this year. As I see peosaonlly pick a team means I will part of the team mate.
If you want to bet the matches, please do not have the same issues the ever people.
Since all the team looking for marketplace guys why really fight to keep the reputation without red trust. These are relly helpful one.

Pakistan vs. Ireland test match will be starting from tomorrow in Malahide Dublin.

IMO, this won't be an easy win for Pakistan. Pakistan has been focusing too much on T20s lately and didn't make the ODI and Test matches the part of focus. They don't have any perfect combination for a test team.

Ireland can be deadly in the home conditions. My advice to Pakistan is never to take them lightly. It is a mistake that West Indies did, when they visited Ireland for a one-off match in 1969. And this is what happened:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKN4vVm7Ffs

Bowled out for just 25 runs!!!

Well play for the first day of the match was called off due to rain. Let's see what happens tomorrow. This should turn out to be something interesting, unless rain ruins some next few days as well.

Just as expected. Rain is the biggest hindrance to the game of cricket in Ireland. It may sound unbelievable, but more than 50% of all the home matches of Ireland have been washed out during the past 10 years.

Looking at current match with the spectacles of 1969 is not a wise idea, though Pakistan is not at its best I don't think one can anticipate a defeat for them lmao don't tell me you're placing money on Ireland.

Man approves god disapproves this was such a keenly anticipated day and bam the rains have decided to make their mark felt, I do hope 4 days of full play can be expected. Let's see how this contest goes based on the moods of the weather.

I think this will be an interesting test match as it will Ireland's inaugural test match so it will be interesting to see how well they go playing their first ever test. Also there is going to be one of the oldest debutant playing in Ed Joyce who would be the oldest Test debutant this century at 39 years. Joyce will become the oldest Test debutant since South Africa's Omar Henry who debuted at 40 years old in 1992 and the oldest this century ahead of Australia's Bryce McGain who debuted in 2009 at the age of 36. So already there is a lot of history in this test match.

On paper, their bowling attack is quite strong with players such as Yuzvendra Chahal, Umesh Yadav and Tim Southee. But I have a feeling that they should have purchased one tearaway pace bowler during the auctions. Pat Cummins or Matt Henry could have done the job.
You have to remember IPL is played in Indian pitches and the best bowling attract does not mean that they need a tear away another fast bowler, they need to include a genuine second spinner and it can make a huge difference in these pitches, SRH plays two spinners and they have the best bowling attack in this entire tournament and they are winning matches simply they are bowling really well.

You may be having a point here. Spinners do play a very important role in the Indian pitches. So in addition to Yuzvendra Chahal, they should have added another experienced spinner. Anyway... now it is too late for any of that.

Rajasthan Royals have managed to win their match against Kings XI Punjab in spite of scoring just 158. Rajasthan Royals spinners managed to restrict Punjab to 143. This is in spite of KL Rahul scoring an unbeaten 95. It isn't often that a batsman scores 90+ in a low scoring T20 match and yet his team loses.

Franchises such as RCB are having good players, but their team bonding is not up to the mark.

Their bowling is also very weak and inconsistent, which is one of the main reason behind their failure. RCB has lost 3 matches due to the poor death bowling.

Kohli as a captain and a player is really humbled by the entire teams performance of this IPL, even with big names they could not even win a match, this is ridiculous, the match looks like fixed without a doubt, they were cruising really well when chasing and suddenly loosing wickets and ends up chocking rather than getting the win and now they can join their families soon.
