Netherlands Vs Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka, who are yet to win a match in three matches at the 2023 World Cup. Without seeing the face of victory in this World Cup, Sri Lanka will face the Netherlands today. In today's match, the Netherlands scored 262 runs after losing all the wickets in the scheduled 50 overs. Sri Lanka will enter the field today with a target of 263 runs, but it is expected that Sri Lanka can win by defeating the Netherlands in today's match. Meanwhile, the Netherlands created a sensational atmosphere in the World Cup by defeating South Africa. But let's see who wins this competition by defeating them in today's match. But I can predict Sri Lanka win today.

I won't say there is absolutely no chance of Pakistan winning. This is a much more difficult task, but it is not impossible. The outfield is very fast. If Pakistan's batsmen can stay at the crease, they have a chance to win this match. Scoring runs will not be too difficult if Pakistan's batsmen can stay at the crease. But the performance of Pakistan's batsmen is very erratic. They cannot be trusted.
Pakistani openers Imam Ul Haque and Abdullah Shafique have started well. Pakistan collected 40 runs in 5 overs. The team has not lost any wicket yet. They are batting very smoothly. Abdullah scored 10 runs from 11 balls and Imam Ul Haque remained unbeaten with 25 runs from 19 balls. If the opening pair is prolonged, the match will become more competitive.

Chasing down a score of 360+ is never easy, no matter what the pitch is like. But runs are coming from Pakistani batters, which is a good sign. However, they need to be cautious about not losing wickets quickly because if they lose 2/3, it puts them under pressure. Still, I believe Pakistan has a chance to chase this total, especially on this flat track with a small boundary. It's an opportunity for them to score and win the game. But, Australia is the favorite, and I think they might win comfortably.
Marcus Stoinis and Adam Zampa proved instrumental with the ball after centuries to David Warner and Mitch Marsh. Pakistan played well but in bits and pieces. Imam, Abdullah scored 50s and Rizwan scored with 46 ans Saud Scored 30. Australia hit 19 and Pakistan hit 6 sixes, that was another major difference. Iftikhar had been unlucky in both matches against India as well as against Australia. The difference proved to be those dropped Catches. Aussies bowling remained disciplined and which won them the match
South Africa performed well in the first two matches. They won by big margins against Sri Lanka and Australia. But in the last match the team suffered an unexpected defeat against the Netherlands and lost by 38 runs against the Netherlands. That is why it is very important for South Africa to win today's match. On the other hand, out of 3 matches, England lost both. Therefore, if they do not win today's match, it will become more difficult for England to qualify for the semi-finals.
South Africa is not batting well. They are under pressure at the beginning of the innings. South Africa lost de Kock's important wicket for just 4 runs. And at the end of 6 overs South Africa collected only 18 runs. I think England will be able to win today's match.

Netherlands managed to score 262,which is decent target to defend. I liked how they managed to keep score running with singles and doubles than relying on boundaries, they probably would not have made this target had they tried to hit hard and would have gotten all out much sooner.
Regarding SL, if there was ranking for worst fielding, the top contenders would be Pakistan and SL

LOL.. Netherlands in very poor condition in the very next match after their upset win against South Africa. They were 91/6 after Scott Edwards got out. Now Sybrand Engelbrecht and Logan van Beek have helped them to reach 130/6. The first target for the Dutch would be to reach a total of at least 200. I am not expecting much from them in this match, as some of the Sri Lankan batsmen are in great form and also due to the fact that the pitch at Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow seems to be very batsmen friendly.
Although the top order did not play well, a descent of 263 runs provided a target. I don't think the Netherlands will collect more than 200 today. Engelbrecht and Van Beek's excellent performance helped Netherlands to collect 262 runs. Engelbrecht scored 70 runs and Van Bekk managed to play an excellent innings of 59 runs. This is a good enough target to consider on the pitch. However, Sri Lanka's batting order is strong. We saw a great performance against Pakistan. And so the Netherlands bowlers have to do controlled bowling from the beginning of the innings. Both teams have chances to win.

The way the Netherlands performed against South Africa and the way the Netherlands performed today against Sri Lanka, I feel that if they are coached properly, they will be as strong a team as India and Pakistan. Their lives are not so easy as the cricketers of India Pakistan Australia New Zealand Bangladesh. They are well seen in the big tournaments of the World Cup but they work hard outside the tournament. Some work as delivery men and some work in workshops to manage their families. Underprivileged cricketers are performing brilliantly in world tournaments today. The Netherlands deserve credit for the runs they managed to score against Sri Lanka. There is cricketing talent in the Netherlands and the Netherlands Cricket Board must come forward to find that talent.

Okay, this is game over for Pakistan, The 8th wicket is down and the run rate is climbing up.
It was turning out to be a perfect chase, almost but Aussie kept chipping wickets in intervals. Now I can understand why Pakistani fans use the word "Zimbabar" every now n then.
Going forward Australia needs to work on their catching, they also dropped a few catches and gave good competition to Pakistan's fielders. Today they were saved but against top teams, it'll cost them a match.

Australia was saved today only with the excellent score they could muster up, all thanks to openers. They can't expect such inning each time. Aussies might make it to semis but not further. I feel we will see India vs NZ in finals, only these two appear worthy teams to me.
On a side note, neither Australia or Pakistan could capitalize on foundation openers had created.
Pakistan started this by dropping Warner along with 3 other drops, clown captaincy by Babar. Australia's middle order returned the favor with their ridiculous batting, followed by Australia dropping both openers and they stitched 100+ runs partnership but Pakistanis did what they do best and failed to capitalize and kept losing wickets despite a majority of batters getting a nice start.
Netherlands are batting in the first innings against Sri Lanka and may not be able to score too many runs in today's match. I am currently watching the game, but Netherlands are not giving a very good batting performance, and they are losing wickets only. If the Netherlands team continues to play like this, I think they will not be able to cope with Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka is a strong enough team compared to netherlands and today match Sri Lanka is more likely to win, and I have made a prediction, Sri Lanka will win the match. Although today we can see the performance of Sri Lanka's game, today they have some improvement in their bowling performance. However, Netherlands' bowling performances are stronger, if Sri Lanka does not bat well for them, they will not be able to win. And right now Sri Lanka have taken one wicket from the Netherlands, so far they have lost 1 wicket and collected 23 runs in 7 overs.
Australia vs Pakistan match If Pakistan could have stopped Australia within 300 runs then Pakistan would have won the match tomorrow. We all know that Pakistan's bowling line is very good but yesterday Pakistan's bowlers were almost helpless against David Warner's hostile bat. Shafique and Imam-Ul-Haq had a good start and their partnership has progressed well but both of them could not bat very well after their fifty. Adam Zampa bowled brilliantly and took four wickets in 10 overs. Congratulations Australia team beat Pakistan by 62 runs Australia won this match Congratulations.
In the first 8 overs, Pakistan's bowling was on top of the Aussie openers, but that first spell by Haris Rauf was the turning point of the match; he was continuously bowling poor line and length and was punished by Warner and Marsh. Once these batters started making runs, there was no one stopping them. They hit 6s with ease. Poor bowling by Pakistan in the middle overs as well; apart from Iftikhar, no other spinner was impressive. And don't talk about the Pakistan fielding in the match; it was below standard, and even the associate team can do better than what they did in the field. Credit to Australia for the way they have bowled Pakistan out on a batting paradise. Hazelwood, in my opinion, was at his best in accessing the conditions and hitting the right length.
Pakistan is in deep trouble, Rizvan is out after scoring 46 runs. 7 wickets down and the asking run rate is now 10.4, this match has gone out of Pakistan's hand. Another pressure match and Pakistan batters are unable to handle the pressure. The bowling and fielding of the Pakistan team today was way below their standard. Looks like they haven't been able to come out of the loss against India. Much needed win for the Australian team in order for them to make a comeback in this tournament.
Pakistan team will lose this match because Pakistan has lost 8 wickets in 280 runs .Adam Zampa is bowling very classic and Australia is very close to win . Adam Zampa changed the side of the match by taking 3 wickets in consecutive overs.Adam Zampa spell was excellent and he took 4 wickets by giving 53 runs in 10 overs . Stoinis took first 2 wickets and break the partnership of Imam UL Haq and Abdullah. Pakistani openers played well and set partnership of 134 runs . Muhammad Rizwan and Iftikhar started to build partnership but Adam Zampa review bent the match into Australian side. David Warner will be man of the match who played excellent inning of 163 runs and stand a big target .Mitchel Marsh also performed century and made 121 runs in just 108 balls.Australia will get 2 points on the points table and Australian points will be 6 .

When Babar Azam and Mohammad Rezwan got some stability on the wicket, I thought that maybe these two batsmen would seal Pakistan's victory and then strike but in reality something different happened. Congratulations to David Warner and congratulations to Australia for a nice win.
It was a wonderful performance from the Australian openers and the Pakistan openers started out with a century partnership and that is the start Pakistan needed to chase a total like 367 runs and they were handling the Australian bowlers really well until Marcus Stoinis got the ball and once he made the break through and sent their openers back to the pavilion they started to control the match better and started picking wickets. When Babar Azam and Mohammad Rezwan got some stability on the wicket, I thought that maybe these two batsmen would seal Pakistan's victory and then strike but in reality something different happened. Congratulations to David Warner and congratulations to Australia for a nice win.
368 is defiantly not an easy target to chase and that too against Aussies bowling lineup. The dilemma with Pakistan batting is that most of top order players are playing with too much defense. They are not scoring runs with requirement of the game. Only Abdullah Shafique was able to hit two 6 among top 4 batsmen. Imam and Rizwan as usual scored runs with run a ball and that is not helping Pakistan.
Well.. let's not blame the Pakistani batsmen. A target of 368 would have been quite formidable even against weak teams such as Sri Lanka. And here we have Australia, who has world class bowlers. It was a near-impossible task to start with. But then credit goes to the Pakistani batsmen for giving a tough fight. They kept the losing margin to two digits. And this is going to matter, when the semi-final slots will be decided on the basis of net run rate. And as of now, both Australia and Pakistan are having equal points.

Pakistan was defeated by 62 runs in this match against Australia. Pakistan were bowled out in 45 overs where they managed to score 305 runs before being bowled out. Pakistan needed 62 runs in 5 overs when they were all out. My bet was on Pakistan in this match and I was a Pakistan supporter in this match so as a Pakistan supporter I felt bad that if Pakistan could have held their wicket for a little longer they could have chased down another big target and won. The opening two batsmen got off to a great start and did more than they were required to do but Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan shied away from the task. These two reliable batsmen needed to stay on the wicket for a while longer. When Babar Azam and Mohammad Rezwan got some stability on the wicket, I thought that maybe these two batsmen would seal Pakistan's victory and then strike but in reality something different happened. Congratulations to David Warner and congratulations to Australia for a nice win.
A comprehensive victory for Australia as they defeated Pakistan by 62 runs in Bengaluru. This Back to back victories for Australia have propelled them to the fourth spot in the points table, while New Zealand maintains their top position in world cup. Marcus Stoinis took 2 wickets his bowling figures 2/40 in 5 Overs and captain Pat Cummins shine with the ball also took 2 wickets for Australia against Pakistan.David Warner was awarded the player of the match for his incredible performance Scored 163 runs against Pakistan. Adam Zampa spin bowl to much that difficulty for Pakistan batters in Bengaluru on a flat deck he took 4/53 wickets in 10-Overs and Win match for Australia all Out Pakistan 305 runs.

It is gradually becoming difficult for Pakistan to win the match. However, their two openers batted very responsibly. Pakistan's two openers got off to a decent start. But could not score a century. But the important thing is that Pakistan captain Babar cannot play well. Babar and Rizwan's performance was very important in this match. Now as Pakistan needed around 8.5 runs per over, hard hitting batsmen like Babar and Rizwan were needed. Babar could collect only 18 runs. Talented batsmen like Rizwan, Shakeel and Iftikhar are still there. But I don't think Pakistan will be able to win.Okay, this is game over for Pakistan, The 8th wicket is down and the run rate is climbing up.
It was turning out to be a perfect chase, almost but Aussie kept chipping wickets in intervals. Now I can understand why Pakistani fans use the word "Zimbabar" every now n then.
Going forward Australia needs to work on their catching, they also dropped a few catches and gave good competition to Pakistan's fielders. Today they were saved but against top teams, it'll cost them a match.

Right now, Pakistan team chase down 273 runs target in 40.1 overs by losing 6 wickets. At current time, M.Nawaz and U.Mir are batting in the pitch and recently I.Ahmed dismissed from the pitch by A.Zampa bowler of Australia team. Now Pakistan team need 41 runs target in 81 balls and 2 wickets remaining for playing. A.Shafique and Imam ul Haq played very well for their team. A.Shafique scored 64 runs in 61 balls and hitted seven 4s and two 6s in the pitch and Imam ul Haq scored 70 runs in 71 balls and hitted ten 4s. But other players did show Their actual performance in front of Australia including Captain. Now let's see they will chase down this remaining target or not? I didn't think they will win this today match.
