Is anyone enjoying the match between Sri Lanka women's and Netherlands women's team? The Sri Lankan women's team batted first and set a huge target of 279 runs. It seemed to me enough to win. But the Netherlands collected 159 runs in 33 overs, and they lost only 3 wickets. 120 runs were needed for the victory of the Netherlands in 17 overs. It is unknown at this time who will win this match. But I am keeping the Sri Lankan team ahead. They will win if they can control the bowling.
Once after this post checked with the score. Netherlands have lost its winning chance, because it have lost 6 wickets. Another thing just seven overs left and it requires 10+ runs per over which isn't an easy thing. The win of Sri Lanka is almost confirmed. In the last ten overs Netherlands have lost 3 wickets and the run rate isn't maintained.

I checked the scoreboard of the match. The Netherlands need 83 runs in 38 balls to win. And the Netherlands lost 6 wickets. There is no chance of their winning at this moment. While Babette and Kalis batted brilliantly, other batsmen has failed to stay on the crease for long. That is why the Netherlands will be defeated.

Good news for Afghanistan as ICC Governing body 'will continue to support' Afghanistan as a member . During T20 WC it was very much on the cards that ICC will cancel Afghanistan membership due to new regime. ICC will monitor situation closely in Afghanistan specially in relation to woman cricket. Let's hope new regime will cooperate with icc to ensure its membership.
This is very good decision from ICC because currently they need some good gesture for spreading this cricket around the globe if they ban Afghanistan then it's surely hurting this game very badly few very talented players from this country are doing good and can play good role for more adoption in this war hit country. Currently, we are already losing some good support in West Indies and have not good enough in some more countries which is not good, but this is perfect decision from the governing body.
Yes, I do think that this is a good decision by ICC and maybe banning the agonist and cricket board could have resulted in Afghanistan not playing cricket for a long time. I am happy that world-class players in Afghanistan will still get paid and still be able to play cricket.

This is the worst possible decision. And in the history it will be remembered as one of the follies from the ICC, which is controlled by the BCCI. The legitimacy given by ICC means that the Taliban controlled cricket board will continue to receive close to $8 million per year in funds from the ICC, and I have no doubt that a large part of it will be diverted for terrorism. If that happens, then the ICC will be held accountable. The rules must be uniform for everyone. If they can ban South Africa for apartheid, then why not Taliban?I don't think that this money will go to some terrorist organization or will be used for any terrorist work. But even though I am a big supporter of Afghanistan cricket, I still think that the money would have been a little less. I am not in support of banning the Afghanistan board because they have some world-class cricketers.

Wait, why should the cricketers be punished because of some terrorists? I cannot and absolutely will not agree with this statement of yours. And tell me this why does finding the cricket team gives legitimacy to The terrorists? Everyone is not a terrorist 
.
I'm not in favor of any kind of ban-politics of ICC in cricket, if any country wants to boycott Afghanistan team due to regime change then they can do this in bilateral level, its their right to do so. However counter argument to your comment would be. What was the South African players fault when they faced a ban from the ICC due to racial tension in their country? What was Zimbabwean cricketer's fault when their government tried to take complete control of their cricket? .That is actually true and for some reason, I think some rules in ICC are just shit. Just like the Duckworth Lewis rules. I don't think any team should be banned unless there are some serious crimes or something like that.

Yes Zimbabwe has faced ban from ICC and I dont know what is their fault, surely it was not thr players fault and they are suffering from this. Many of those now become unemployed as cricket was their source of income and they cannot get another job. It is sad to feel that because of these thing players get suffer. Yes a couple of those can play some franchise cricket but what about othersYes, people who play cricket as their profession can face some really difficult times when their international cricket team gets banned from cricket. I mean it's not like football where if you get banned from international football you can still play for the league and earn quite a lot of money.

Maybe because Afghanistan is going through a tough time right now? Call of the other countries mentioned have their own cricket board and have their own sponsors. But we all know Afghanistan went to play the T20 world cup depending on the money of Muhammad nabi himself. So I think if any team needs financial support right now it is Afghanistan.
First of all Afghanistan should not be playing international cricket right now. The country is being ruled by a terrorist organization which is regularly committing mass murder and genocide. Allowing them to participate in the ICC tournaments gives some sort of legitimacy to the terror regime there. Teams like Australia have asked the ICC to suspend them, but the BCCI doesn't want that. So forget about the additional funds. They should be happy that they are still receiving some funds from the ICC.

.Few months back when Afghanistan was in real trouble but ally with the USA and their allies countries then all was OK now suddenly it's terrorist and stop cricket it's really poor feeling from few peoples with mind set about their own agenda hopefully we will have some better and safer way for all peoples in near future.
ICC also need to be neutral about this, and they need to came out from just one country influence because it's not in favour of fair play and this sports which is already struggling in few countries for surviving.

Before IPL, India must have been used domestic matches and tournaments to find out the new talents still IPL might have simplified their job, I agree but nothing new in terms of identifying a new talent because of IPL; it has been happening for years. Same way, we cannot say BPL or PCL or any other tournaments are not doing the same. If authorities who responsible on identifying new talent are corrupted then no tournament will help right talented people and IPL cannot be an exception. IPL is big in terms of revenue hence it is setting examples and milestones for other countries to follow.
T20 leagues are good to choose players for National T20 squad only. Right now whats happening in Asia is that those who are performing well in T20 leagues are inducted in ODI and Test squad. ODI and Test is proper cricket and only genuine batsman and bowler can perform there. These picks from leagues are destroying test and ODI cricket. I think it is ok because we are supposed to watch some new players in the t20 format for almost every team as the t20 format is really fast-paced so every team needs young and agile players in the field. And as we know that t20 cricket does not require as much skill as one day or test cricket so teams often look for hard hitters and young players.

Political talks aside, whoever rules a country has the right to control its cricket board. If taliban are new leaders of Afghanistan then they must be given funds by icc to regulate cricket affairs in the country. ICC must audit those funds issued to Afghanistan and should suspend funds only if they are not properly utilised. That's what I think.

Players like nabi and rashid and whole team was improving alot in cricket but don't know what can be the best way to tackle with this

I am sure the selectors would have checked the background of the selected players. They would know who suits good for ODI and who is better for test cricket. It is not always compulsory that they check their T20 performance. Another issue is there is not much ODI or Test cricket being played and a lot of T20 nowadays. That might be another reason why these new players are being selected from T20 national league.
