Indian players are batting well after winning the toss and deciding to bat. India collected 219 runs in 35 overs. The team scored 6.25 runs per over. Rohit Sharma is out after collecting 40 runs off 24 balls. Kohli remains unbeaten with 67 runs and Iyer 70 runs. And the way India are batting now, they will score at least 150 runs in the last 15 overs. Even collecting more than 150 is not surprising. Because Indian batsmen have this ability. Today India looks set to deliver more than 370 targets. But with the South African batsmen in great form, the match will be very competitive.

I think SA will choke.

A target like 370 will be very difficult to deliver. Maybe team India will give a target like 330-350. Iyer batted very well. But he could not score a century. Virat Kohli is still unbeaten with 74 runs off 92 balls. After 39 overs, India collected 236 runs. At an average of 10/11 runs per over, India will probably not be able to score more than 350. But no matter how big the target, the South African players will play to win. Yesterday we saw Pakistan win by batting at a huge target of 402 runs. I think today's match will be similarly competitive.

A blistering start by India went down the drain after Rohit's wicket. Indians were at 62 runs at just 5.5 overs when they lost Rohit and 90-ish when the power play ended but since then Gill-Rohit-Iyer added only 31 runs in the last 10 overs, some shitty anchor innings are going on from the Birthday boy Koach and Iyer.

Yeah, Rabada and Maharaj did bowl some finest overs but both batters looking defensive, especially Iyer which is completely opposite of his own gameplay.

They took their time but now back in business.

Rohit Sharma's team won the toss and decided to bat at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. India's opening duo Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill started the batting brilliantly. Rohit Sharma looked like he was playing at T20 level. Rohit Sharma was dismissed for 40 off 24 balls. After a while Shubman Gill was out. The Indian team was under a bit of pressure after the dismissal of the two front-row batsmen. Then Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer are playing beautifully and have formed a beautiful partnership. The way Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer are batting, it seems that both will see centuries. Virat Kohli scored 73 runs off 89 balls and Shreyas Iyer scored 77 runs off 87 balls. If they can play like this then India will score 370 plus runs.

Run rate slowed down a lot after Rohit and Gill gone and especially when Shreyas came to the crease, he's eating dot balls as if playing test cricket, at least he should keep rotating strike.

He covered it up well and just now out at 77, bit hurry because he could have easily made 100 instead of looking to hit shot at every ball.

Interrupted again, annoying cause match is just so interesting to watch right now. Anyway, if Pakistan wins this game whole credit will go to Fakhar Zaman, who knew what huge total they were chasing yet didn't lose hope and kept playing aggressive.

Had Fakhar Zaman not hit three sixes in the 25th over, tomorrow's match would have gone in New Zealand's favour. However, rain and God helped Pakistan yesterday, so Pakistan managed to beat New Zealand yesterday and keep the dream of qualifying for the semi-finals alive.

I thought yesterday that Pakistan will never be able to meet the target of 401 runs. Because I have never seen Pakistan break the record of 400 runs and win. It is true that if Fakhar Zaman had not hit three sixes in the 25th over yesterday, Pakistan would never have won. Actually Pakistan had good luck yesterday that is why Pakistan won yesterday's match due to rain otherwise Pakistan would never have won.

The match between India and South Africa is going to be played at the Eden Garden in Kolkata. Meanwhile, India won the toss and decided to bat. Both the teams are guaranteed to play in the next round. Both the teams are in great form in this tournament. India has not lost a match so far. India is a very strong team at home ground. Md. Sami has been in great form picking up 14 wickets in the last three matches and the team is also in great form to say the least. Can South Africa stop India today or will India remain unbeaten?

One team love to chase and the other keeps showing its class when batting first but here the former opts to bat and the latter seems happy because it plays out perfectly in the context of big matches. Both want to test the different scenarios.

Teams sitting on the sidelines will keep their eyes open as well as they could potentially face one of em in the semis.

I was also in that 99% of people who lose hope, at the first when I saw the target cross over 400 I lost hope it was the first one in this match. And after the Pakistan inning start and when I saw the first wicked drop it was the second time I lost hope in the team. But that wicket is become good for the Pakistan team. When Fakhar Zaman started beating and the way he hit the balls I regained my hope that if they went the same through the same and did not drop any wickets then winning the match was confirmed. Baber also played well he stood on the wicket and saved it if one of them got out then they did not win this match but yeah we have another amazing player M. Rizwan who is also a skipper.

Pakistan team is an unbelievable team, they lost which they were about to win and they won which they were about to lose, the biggest example is yesterday's match. When the first innings ended so Pakistan fans lost their hope but they still watched and when Abdullah Shafique out in the second over so Pakistan was sure that they will lost the match but Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman built this hope again, and both players led Pakistan win.

Fakhar Zaman did a very great come back, he hit 18 sixes in just two innings and he replaced to Imam and Imam hit just 3 sixes in both 2019 and 2023 world cup overall. I don't know if they bought Fakhar Zaman late in the team as the chances of Pakistan proceeding further in the tournament is still slim.

Now, everyone can say that they might have won this game by chasing 400+ runs, but I think Pakistan would not have a chance if they played complete 50 overs. Against Australia, they were doing great, and then they suddenly collapsed and lost the match. 400 is an impossible target anywhere in the World.
Credit goes to Pakistan for how they paced their inning. Fakhar was exceptional, and Babar played a captain inning, continuously rotating strike. Initially, when Fakhar was under pressure, he scored a few boundaries and eased him a bit, and the rest is history.

In the other match, Australia comfortably won the match against England. As everyone expected, England's batters lost their wickets at regular intervals, and none of their batsmen stood up to the challenge of chasing this total. They added valuable runs at the end, but they were not enough to get them over the line. With this loss, England's future in the Champion Trophy 2025 looks gloomy. They have to win their remaining couple of matches to have a shot at qualification.

Not just me 99% of people were in favor of New Zealand winning after scoring 401 runs but the rain law changed the scenario of the game. The forecast was that there was a possibility of rain, which is why Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and decided to field first so that when it rains, they can bat according to the rain laws. After New Zealand scored 401 runs in the first innings, the target for Pakistan was 402 runs. Chasing the target of 402 runs, Pakistan batsmen Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman batted aggressively from the start. The two batsmen batted in t20 style to put Pakistan ahead by 20 runs before the second innings was rained out and when the rain came in the second innings the match referee did not delay in making the decision Pakistan was declared a twenty-run winner shortly after the rain in the second innings.
Congratulations to Pakistan.

So we have Pakistan as winner, rain saved the Pak today, bad luck for NZ and bad luck for viewers as well — this was turning our to be such an interesting match.

After this match and the one between Australia and England played yesterday (which Australia won), it is interesting to see the points table for the teams still in the tournament.
A lot can happen and we are yet to see who will be the winner in the table to play the number 4th team in the semi finals. If some major upsets don't happen. New Zealand should move ahead even if they lose to SriLanka by a lesser margin. But I think that NZ should beat Srilanka.
Australia and Afghanistan have one extra match with them, which may give them another added advantage.

Congratulations to Pakistan.

Only Fakhar Zaman played aggressively, Babar was playing slow, he went a while without single boundary too. Had it been anyone else but Zaman RRR would have climbed high and Pakistan would have lost, even when playing aggresive as they did it their RR was staying near 7.5-8.

Although good on Babar for strike rotation.

Babar Azam batted at a strike rate of 104 and Fakhar Zaman batted at a strike rate of 155. As Fakhar Zaman was batting very aggressively and the ball was coming to his bat well, Babar Azam rotated the strike most of the time. The equation for Pakistan was that if they wanted to win in the rain, they had to keep their wickets as well as score runs, as Fakhar Zaman was picking up the runs and the run rate was at a very good level, Babar Azam did not make the mistake of giving away wickets unnecessarily. The state of the game was such that if Pakistan had lost two or three wickets then Pakistan would have definitely lost this match. Pakistan managed to play according to plan till the rain against New Zealand which is why they were able to win this tough match.

What you have said does not make any sense to me. Afghanistan defeated Netherlands and Netherlands beat South Africa does not really mean Afghanistan will beat South Africa easily. I don't know why you are quite confident regarding this victory. You said South Africa did not show better performance than Afghanistan, are you sure about that? Did you see South Africa's score in this World Cup? They are in great form and all their performers giving their best which made them one of the semi-finalists. South Africa did not lose any other match except against the Netherlands. How did you say that they did not show better performance? I guess you are not blind folded.

Peoples don't know what to say and how things works but mostly try to create theories which never works because things works in sports without any theory like this any team can win in any game and top teams can lose their games against any bottom side with those watch sports and specially soccer in every season understand this all same happen here in this World Cup, but I believe most chances South Africa will handle this all easily at the end because their performance is good, and they have good winning streak as well with tomorrow their match against India is also very important because they can win and go through at the top of the league table as well which will be big boost for them before big games which are going to start soon after group stage matches.

I expected that but Pakistan batting was so turned on today and depleted KZ bowling unit can't control the furious Fakhar and the last over before the rain interruption was the key. Unlucky day for NZ but its good for the tournament cause now the spots are still open and theoretically still 7 teams are fighting for it.

On another match, ENG is playing the most defensive and already the required rate is over 6.5 but the players can change that in few overs so all they are focusing now is keeping the wickets in hand and bring their Ashes rivals down.

After having target of 402 New Zealand surely were on dream run because this was highest ever target to chase with Pakistani batting were struggling on these batting pitches but today things gone completely against them as Fakhar Zaman was doing like we have in WWE destruction things and Kane Williamson decision to give last over before rain give them massive below Sodhi concede 20 and this was the difference between these two teams after match ended just because of the rain.

England is surely now down and out with seventh sixth lost in seven matches, but now they have chance for the good end of this event as they are going to face Netherlands and Pakistan into their last game even most chances their chances are ended for the top seven spots because we already have Sri Lanka at this spot with their next game is against Bangladesh.

Pakistan got 21 wins by DLS method in the rain interrupted match between New Zealand and Pakistan. Also, as the fourth semi-finalist, New Zealand and Pakistan will have to face a tough test once again. Both the teams have equal 8 points although New Zealand is slightly ahead in net run rate. Both the teams have one match left and there is no option for them to win to advance to the next round, so the upcoming matches of both the teams are do or die matches. Australia won by 33 runs against England in the second match of the day. Australia are third in the points table and have two more matches to go against Bangladesh and Afghanistan, both of which they are likely to win. India and South Africa have officially qualified for the next round. And Australia's chances as the next team are very high. But it is now uncertain which team will go to the next round as the fourth team.

Today's match in the ICC World Cup was very important for Pakistan and New Zealand. This match has brought one of the two teams to the semi-finals.Fortune favored Pakistan. New Zealand gave Pakistan such a big target but still they lost. Pakistan batsman Fakhar Zaman gave full support to Pakistan.Pakistan batsman Fakhar Zaman and Babar Azam made a partnership of 194 runs and won the match.Pakistan won the match due to rain.As much as Pakistan's batsmen played well, their bowlers bowled badly. New Zealand's bowlers got only one wicket after Fakhar Zaman hit sixes. And Babar Azam gave full support along with Fakhar Zaman. today's ICC World Cup match was very impressive.
