Placed a bet on England today with @2.68 odds  Lips sealed So cheering for Buttler & co  Grin

Okayish start for England if we go by their own standard but they didn't lose any wickets so its a positive sign, i feel dirty but want to see off day for Kuldeep again and don't want to see another 2 wickets in an over spell from Lord Thakur.  Roll Eyes
Once again the top order is striking well and the huge total looks very reachable at this time. Wondering no bowler managed to take any wicket at the half way mark and the only one wicket came from run out from hitman.

I am also having belief on the LORD THAKUR! Can he do it one more time? Haha... Grin
The inexperience was showing Pretty clearly in India's bowling today. One average match for Bhuvi and the whole bowling attack couldn't find their momentum. Especially Krunal he was hilarious in his bowling I have to say. India over relied on their spinners who were good for nothing today. If England would have batted first today they would have scored 400 easily.

I am not too confident to place a bet on England, even in the last match they got a good start and then ended up loosing and this time they have Liam Livingstone, Dawid Malan and Moeen Ali are in the team which can make a difference but still i will pass on placing a bet as i lost a few bets placing on England to win in the series and 336 is always a competitive one if they start loosing wickets.

England look like they are screwed once again since 337 is a bigger target when compared to the previous 317. India will probably win the ODI series too at this rate.

Rahul was awesome along with Pant. Hardik's blitz towards the end was satisfying as expected. England are clearly missing Archer while Iyer's replacement(Pant) was the right call.

If anyone is watching the match between Bangladesh and New Zealand? I am annoyed to see the poor performance of the Bangladesh team. The team is not stable. The squad is changing for every series, and often the batsmen are changing their own batting positions. Yet they are not being able to play well. Moreover, the conflict between their boards and players is nothing new. The board's conflict with the world's best all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has been going on for a long time. It is not possible to perform well if the problems between the team and the board are not solved properly.
No surprise there. I don't know why people tend to underestimate New Zealand. They are one of the best teams in international cricket right now and they can challenge any of the big 3 nations. They have top batsmen such as Ross Taylor and Kane Williamson, and their pace bowling department is perhaps the best in the world right now (Trent Boult, Kyle Jamieson, Lockie Ferguson, Matt Henry, Neil Wagner, Tim Southee.etc).  

No mate, I didn't underestimate the New Zealand team. They have developed a lot in cricket. They and one of the most powerful squads in the world. Every player on the team is awesome. I am just telling about the Bangladeshi squad and their board. I have no complaints about the New Zealand squad. They have done a great job.

This is a completely one-sided game, there is nothing left to watch. Bangladesh has already lost 8 wickets and they cannot even reach 200. Newzealand is a far better team than Bangladesh, there is no point in comparing them. 2 more ODI left and I am sure NZ will win this series.

I agree with you. The whole series was one-sided. Bangladesh team could not perform well in a single match. In the previous match, although they were able to give a good run target, they lost the match due to poor fielding and poor bowling.

This is good for the Morgan and England team. Morgan is an extraordinary player. He is experienced enough. But, it will take some time to adapt to the weather and the environment and the pitch in India. If he becomes the captain of KKR, he will be able to easily adapt to this environment before the World Cup .

Morgan is a classy player, but he is going through a lean patch now. I hope he will be able to perform well during IPL 2021, for his team (Kolkata Knight Riders). He will be captaining players such as Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Shakib Al Hasan, Pat Cummins, Lockie Ferguson and Shubman Gill, which can be quite challenging. But he needs to be 100% fit and I have doubt regarding that after hearing the news about the hand injury.
I am hopeful that he will be fully recovered before IPL starts. KKR's squad is very stable. Eoin Morgan will be able to carry out his responsibilities properly. With Shubman GIll, Cummins, Russel and Shakib, I think Morgan will be able to take the KKR team a long way. The team would have been stronger if there had been another skilled batsman in the KKR squad.

i am not sure whether he is a part of any IPL team and if that is the case if he is getting the opportunity it will help him out.
Yes he is and luckily he is going to be the captain of KKR for IPL 2021 edition since they are having hard time finding the right captain for that team every year so this year they are going back with one of the successful international captains in their team.

Bangladesh batsmen doesn't have the ability to handle the raw pace and bounce of the New Zealand fast bowlers. Even when Pakistan was touring New Zealand a few months back, their batsmen also faced the same issue. Now there is no quick fix solution for this, as this issue exists for all the South Asian teams (although India has made a lot of progress on this aspect recently, as seen from their recent success in Australia).

In this series, we need to remember that on top of all the other factors, New Zealand is having the home advantage as well. The New Zealand bowlers can be literally unplayable, in the bouncy and green pitches of Auckland and Wellington.

Dawid Malan has got highest chance to open for England. Eon Morgan used to perform good on home ground than touring. India being a country with completely different climate conditions too is a reason for his bad performance. Eon Morgan used to give promising performance on unexpected matches. This time it looks like a self rest knowing his performance.

Malan is considered as a T20 specialist and I don't know how successful he will be in ODI format. From what we have seen in the first match, England top order is doing OK. Their middle order and lower order is in horrible shape and they are unable to handle both the Indian spinners and pacers. If Malan could strengthen the middle order, then that would be good for the England prospects. Morgan was a big disappointment BTW.

When it comes to Morgan i do agree that he is struggling now but he has won matches from unexpected circumstances and he is an integral part of the team.
If England is looking at Morgan to lead the team for the next world cup later this year he needs to gain the experience in playing in these conditions and i am not sure whether he is a part of any IPL team and if that is the case if he is getting the opportunity it will help him out. His lack of experience in playing in these conditions might be the reason for his struggles and one good innings and he will be back in form.

Will see whether Malan will open or come down the order as England is safe with their opening partnership but they struggle in the middle order and Malan should come at one down and then try to play the anchor role which we have not seen, hopefully he will change according to the situation. When it comes to Morgan i do agree that he is struggling now but he has won matches from unexpected circumstances and he is an integral part of the team.

Not a good news for English team. Their middle order was already struggling now England skipper Eoin Morgan is also out from the ODI series due to hand injury.

Maybe a blessing in disguise for the England team. So far Eoin Morgan has played 6 matches in the Indian tour (5 T20Is and 1 ODI) and his highest score is 28. His poor form was one of the reasons why they struggled after getting so many good starts. Dawid Malan was really good in the T20 series, and I guess he will be able to boost the English batting in the remaining matches. Also, Liam Livingstone is a promising young player.

England is having injury issues and with Eoin Morgan out of the series and the reports are that Liam Livingstone will be making his debut along with Dawid Malan.

For India Shreyas Iyer is out of the tournament as well as for the IPL as he injured his shoulders and it will take months for recovery.

Might be, we can judge after the conclusion of the series. You cannot put the entire blame on Morgan for their middle order struggle, everyone was struggling even though they have one of the strongest teams in papers they are yet to showcase that in the series.
