Today it’s do or die situation for both India and Nepal. The team which will win today’s match will directly go to the semifinals. If today the game is also abandoned due to rain, then both the team will get 1 point each, and India will easily qualify for the Semi finals. If we compare the teams, then India is a strong team, and can easily beat Nepal, but no one knows the future. Anything and everything can happen. We can see India vs Pakistan final match, if both sides wins their next all matches.
I do not think that Bangladesh is playing bad in this match. They have maintained a run rate which is more than 5 through out this innings. They have only lost 2 wickets till now and they still have 18 overs to bat. I am expecting them to put on a decent target and their is a possibility that they might score more than 290 if this pair plays till the 40th over. I found Shanto to be more aggressive than Hasan today and after watching the Afghans bowling I am certain they till now have nil clue as to how to get this partnership broken. I am eager to watch what happens when the Afghans come to bat and bongs come to bowl.
In today game we have complete different Bangladesh side which lost against Sri Lanka first game because from start they were aggressive and confident which allow them to attack on quality spinners of Afghanistan and with this aggression things were completely in favor of Bangladesh because from start they have good strategy which allow them for having very good target which was achievable on this pitch but good captaincy and bowling on good line-length allow them to win this match and secure their spot into top four.Afghanistan which recently lost three matches series against Pakistan in Sri Lanka were completely not in frame throughout this match which is surely miserable for them because now most chances they will be out of this event in next match against Sri Lanka, so they need to regroup and have better mindset for the next game like Bangladesh.
It was a crucial match for Bangladesh, and they managed to win with a good run rate, which keeps them in the tournament. Afghanistan already in back-foot, and right now in a tough position. Also their there's a narrow chance of staying in the event. They'll need something close to a miracle in the next game against Sri Lanka to have a chance at progressing.

In the Bangladesh vs Afghanistan team match, Bangladesh team won the toss and came to bat. Scored 63 runs in 11 overs. But now the Bangladesh team batsmen are under a bit of pressure after losing 2 strong wickets. Towhid Hridoy was out for 0 runs in 2 balls. Najmul Hossain Shanto got out with 0 runs in 5 balls. Today 2 batsmen of Bangladesh team got out with 0 runs. In the previous match I saw Bangladesh team batsmen could not win the match due to bad performance. But in today's match if Afghanistan team players perform well then Bangladesh The team's chances of winning this match are very low.

Today, Bangladesh batsmen have done a great batting performance by batting in the first innings. 334 runs after 50 overs with the loss of 5 wickets, Bangladesh managed to collect a good score today. The way Bangladesh batted today against Afghanistan must have collected good rams to win and Bangladesh are likely to win today's match. Bangladeshi batsman Najmul Hossain Shanto gave an amazing batting performance which was really good, he managed to score 104 runs off 105 balls.
An amazing display of batting performance by the Bangladesh team they set a big target of 335 runs in 50 overs for Afghanistan. Bangladeshi batters especially Najmul Hossain Shanto played good innings of 104 runs in just 105 balls with Mehidy Hasan also a brilliant century scoring 112 runs in 119 balls and helping to score a big target of 300 plus for Afghanistan. While chasing down the target Afghanistan lost his 4 wickets in 195 runs in 36 Overs. Afghanistan Needed 140 runs in 80 balls and 6 wickets in hand It seemed difficult to chase down such a big target but Afghanistan played well especially Hashmatullah Shahidi captain of the Afghanistan team scored fifty in 58 balls and still playing with Muhammad Nabi. Bangladesh bowlers bowling well Taskin Ahmed picked 1 wicket by giving 27 runs in 7 overs and Shoriful Islam also picked 1 Crucial wicket. Bangladesh have a good chance to beat Afghanistan

Another batsman bats well Mehidy Hasan Miraz collects 112 runs from his bat 119 balls was really good batting by two batsmen. If Bangladesh can bowl well in today's match then Afghanistan will be under pressure and it will be very difficult to win the match and Bangladesh will have the most chances in the match.
After Bangladesh's humiliating defeat in the first match against Sri Lanka, it was imperative for Bangladesh to perform well in the second match because if Bangladesh did not perform well in the second match, their Asia Cup dream would have ended in this match. The target of 335 runs in ODI cricket is very big but the problem for Bangladesh is that Bangladesh has fielded a team with only five professionals. Bangladesh should have played with seven batsmen instead of playing with one bowler, then Bangladesh could have done better in bowling. How Shakib Al Hasan leads the field against Afghanistan is now to be seen.

I am eager to watch what happens when the Afghans come to bat and bongs come to bowl.
Bangladesh registered their third highest total in ODI with 334 runs on the board and Afghanistan will be forced to keep the same momentum and strike hard to chase down this total and my prediction is that they would loose wickets trying to keep up with the run rate and they end up loosing big.I am eager to watch what happens when the Afghans come to bat and bongs come to bowl.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Najmul Hossain Shanto scored centuries each and Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim finished off in style.

Pakistan team bowling performance is very good at the moment one wicket has fallen. Due to the dismissal of the opening batsman Rohit Sharma, the Indian team became very weak. Shaheen afridi in particular was a great bowler towards Rohit Sharma. But Rohit Sharma couldn't resist the onslaught, the ball swung so much that it hit the stumps straight away. Indian team's run rate is very low because Pakistani team has strong bowling points so if they can collect runs then Indian team will be under pressure at the last minute.
Yes, in yesterday match Shaheen Shah Afridi bowling performance was unbelievable. Shaheen took the wickets of India top players including Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja and taking total 4 wickets. Unfortunately, the match had no result as it was suspended due to rain and both teams were got 1-1 point. When Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma got out the Indian team was under significant pressure. Rohit Sharma who was the captain was out after scoring just 11 runs and Virat Kohli was out after scoring only 4 runs. These two top batsmen out had put India in a pressure. However, the long batting partnership between Ishan Kishan and Hardik Pandya revived India. chances of winning the match. Still, it is important to note that Pakistan team is not weak team and if their bowling performance is strong and their batting performance would have been equally good but we could have seen this if the entire match had taken place.
In the event of India vs Pakistan match exaggeration the nation forgot the Hockey final between India and Pakistan. The ODI match ended without result whereas the hockey match was won by India on the penalty shootout. Thrilled match in which India was behind and with the hard fight leveled the goal 4-4. Further on the shootout India had won the match 2-0. So on the same day India was unable to win the cricket match, but recorded a win against Pakistan in the hockey.
What a big disappointment, the first match between India and Pakistan this year getting abandoned due to rain. Indian team batting order destroyed by Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf. Pakistan spinners were in effective yesterday and the fielding was bad. Of course there were some incredible catches which cannot be ignored. Ishan Kishan aggressive batting was the best thing yesterday, Hardik Pandya gave him good support on the other side. The next match will be played against India and Nepal. I do not think India will face any issue against a weak Nepal team, if rain does not disrupt the match.
An exciting match getting abandoned due to the rain. I was expecting to see Pakistan batting and chasing a target of 267. I never expected that the match will get abandoned. Both team get 1 points each. While Pakistan qualifies for the super 4 stage in the Asia Cup, India is distant behind for now.
Afridi and Naseem were responsible for the small target by India. If Ishan and Hardik had not played well then the target would have been less than 200. This time the Indian middle order was able to hadle the pressure. Bhumbra played far better than the Indian batting top order. I never expected Gill to struggle so much against the Pakistani bowling power. He was worst than Rohit & Kohli in this match as he was able to score just 10 runs after facing 32 balls.
Next match is between India and Nepal. I don't think India will have much issues with the weaker Nepali side. The only problem would be rain as it can cause the match to get abandoned.

I had a feeling yesterday, when the match got interrupted twice due to rain that this match would get abandoned. This time of the year organizing a tournament in Srilanka is a big mistake. Other upcoming matches might get affected due to rain. The next match between India & Nepal is being played on the same ground. The fate of that match can be similar to yesterdays match.

Good luck for you. I won't say that Pakistan is a weak team but in India vs Pakistan match, India have already finished batting and set a target of 266 runs. Do you think Pakistan can beat this target and win the match? Pakistan can definitely win if they bat well as this target can be considered a good target in a 50 over game but if a team plays well this target is not too big a target. The match was stopped for a while due to rain but now the rain is over so Pakistan will start their batting in a short while. So the match is going to be more exciting now
The match ended without any result and I would say both teams are in a position to win this game. India recoverd nicely after losing early wickets due to 138 runs partnerships between Ishan and Pandya.
Pakistan were not able to capitalise the early advantage they gained. Pakistan are not good chasers and 266 runs were not easy to chase on a wet outfield. Both teams have qualified for next round due to this draw.
Tomorrow is the biggest match in the cricket world Pakistan vs India. The two countries where people are crazy about cricket. The country that hosts this is Sri Lanka and the city is Kandy. Bumrah has come back to the team of India after a long time. But, the India team depended on Bumrah, Rohit Sharma, and Virat Kholi. Pakistan had all types of players if we need a fast bowl so Haris Rauf, Batsman Babar, and Rizwan.
Pakistan vs India team match will start tomorrow. In this match I hope to enjoy a lot of beautiful matches between two teams. There are many good players in both teams. It is very difficult to predict which team will win in this match. But I like Pakistan team players very much. So I thought I will bet in support of Pakistan team in this match. If Pakistan team can bat first and give a good run target then Pakistan team will have hope to win this match. On the other hand India team bowling and batting are in very good form now this match is very much packed. Will rise between two teams.India were under a lot of pressure with the loss of wickets at the start but Hardik Pandya and Ishan Kishan formed an important partnership which was very important for India. The two have now put on an unbroken partnership of 83 runs leading India to a huge total. These two batsmen are trying hard to get India out of the doldrums when every other top-order batsman has failed miserably. It is expected that if the Indian pair can bat till 40 overs, their collection will go above 280 runs. If the target is above 280 runs, it will be difficult for Pakistan to top this run. A mention that Ishan Kishan has already completed his seventh ODI half-century of his career. An unbeaten 56 runs at the wicket and eventually India's total reaches 150 runs.

Today match was impressive one. after getting 4 wickets it was a bonus opportunity for Pakistan to pick some more wickets and restrict India team below 200. Pressure built on india at the time when score was 66/4. Rohit sharma and Kohli which has a very good batting record doesn't make any good score on the board today. Ishan kishan and Harthik pandya today performance is much appreciated and what a time to make partnership.
India and Pakistan both has long batting line up and you cannot feel comfort after taking 5 wicket also. These two deserve for century but luck did not favor them. Shaheen Afridi done a great job especially wicket of Pandia which could create lot of problem for Pakistan and If he stands till the end the score would absolutely 300+ . Today Pakistan spin bowling completely failed, maybe due to patch condition.
