Chasing score of 292 to win , Ngidi got rid of both openers Warner and finch quickly and put OZ under some pressure as they are now 61/2 in 10.4 overs. The run rate is good but if SA can pick another quick wicket here then this would just add more pressure and fall of wickets may begin in that stress . On other hand OZ now require a good partnership to reach to 292.

148/3 at the end of 30 overs. It seems a very difficult task for the South Africans. I still think Australia is dominating this match. SA does not have good batsmen left to chase this kind of score.

Australia started really well taking the wickets from the start but South Africa is recovering as Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller are putting up a good partnership for the 5th wicket and they are doing that at a good pace, i went for a bet for Australia to win the match and hopefully i will not loose this one as i already lost on in the T20 where South Africa restricted Australia in the second match which was unexpected.

Australian team is in form and probability of them winning this match is very good. South African team has recovered from the early downfall. I expect them to easily score 250 and above. This match will have close finish I think.

Klaasen is batting on 119 runs and Miller got out at 64. SA have a decent score on the board now and are 283/6 in 49.1 overs. Looking back the way they lost quick 3 wickets the team would be very satisfied as the middle order pulled them out from that initial trouble. Now SA will have to pick up early wickets else OZ opener are very aggressive and will take the game away if they stay 10 -15 overs on the pitch.

1st ODI between SA vs OZ have being played at Paarl. SA winning the toss decided to bat first and lost their first wicket on the first ball itself. SA are now 82/3 in 17.4 overs. Verreynne is batting on 26 and SA now require a good partnership to ensure they could sustain full 50 overs and can score as close to 300 runs in order to put pressure on OZ.

It looks as if the partnership between Heinrich Klaasen and Kyle Verreynne pulled South Africa out of trouble. When Temba Bavuma got cleaned up by Pat Cummins, they were struggling at 48/3. This partnership has added valuable runs, and that too at a good pace. Ashton Agar is not playing today, which is very surprising after his good performance during the T20 series.

Good news for both India and Pakistani fans. Asia cup will happen and both these team will play at a neutral venue, which of course is Dubai. I expected this to happen after Sourav Ganguly took the chair of BCCI president.

Asia Cup used to be one of the most high profile tournaments in the international cricket calendar. I am sad to witness its decline. Now they have converted the tournament to T20 format from ODI, which will further erode its importance. They could have at least increased the number of teams from 6 to 8, but right now they are not interested in that idea. Else, it would have given cricket crazy nations such as Nepal a chance to compete against the big teams.

Srilanka scored 345 batting first, Fernando and Mendis scored more than 100. After such a big score on board not all teams have batsmen who can chase it. It was a completely one sided match from the beginning.
Sri Lanka dominated the series and there is one more match and i am not sure whether West Indies can bounce back to save the face or Sri Lanka will white wash the series. If i remember correctly this is the first time in a long time that Sri Lanka was able to put up a huge score like this and completely dominated the match and most of the members are still new to me and hence not confident on wagging a bet.

@pakhitheboss though the target was huge but West Indies batsman didn’t even try to chase it they surrendered the match right from the start, and that was disappointing to watch. @7788bitcoin yes there’s one more match left and I don’t expect West Indies to bounce back, especially after their recent performances therefore I feel that Sri Lanka will win the last match easily.
Now today we have first ODI between South Africa vs Australia with Australia is very hot favourite for this match and they are going with few advantages which are going to help them but its still limited overs match so we can expect any result 1st March we have two more ODI's first Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe and second one Sri Lanka vs West Indies these all are going one sided as home teams have some better advantages.

Now in last few months Sri Lanka is very improved side as now new players doing good for them hopefully they will able to set things in long run set up for West Indies they completely fail to produce any good result outside home so this third match is going to be very crucial as they want to avoid whitewash but history is not going with them.

Sri Lanka completely dominated West Indies in the match today which i did not expect this kind of dominance from Sri Lanka, Avishka Fernando and Kusal Mendis scored centruies each and the next highest score was from Thisara Perera and the rest of the players were not even able to cross 20 runs and yet they managed to put 345 runs on the board but Sri Lanka bowled really well and bowled West Indies out for just 184 runs earning them a 161 runs victory.
Today West Indies play like a crap side as they completely fail to produce any action after very good start Cottrell was on fire from start but Sri Lanakan comeback was also extra ordinary with two hundreds and then 345 is really good target for any team in batting Hope alone do some resistance but all others down very badly.

Missed the Sri Lanka vs West Indies match. Checked the scorecard only after reading the posts here. Never thought that it will turn out to be such an exciting match.. The partnership between Wanindu Hasaranga and Lakshan Sandakan changed the course of the match. It's a three-match series, and therefore West Indies need to win both the remaining matches.

Both teams done good job and West Indies was able to win at the end but they can blame their bowlers as too many no-balls and wides hurt them badly at the end Hero of match was Hasaranga who keep his mind cool lead the team for first ODI victory its really interesting match look like we have something to watch in this series.


Sri Lanka won a really close match and not West Indies. I am surprised to see Sri Lanka staying till the end even after loosing their wickets and winning the match with the help of Wanindu Hasaranga as he scored 9 runs in the 49th over which was crucial as they were not having wickets in hand. With an entertaining first match the series will be tightly contested rather than one sided affair.

If anyone would have told me that Sri Lanka would be winning this match and that too in such a thrilling fashion, then I would have laughed at that person because even in my wildest dreams I would not have expected Sri Lanka to win this contest. Further I have to admit that I have underestimated the Sri Lankan team
The Srilankan win was unexpected one especially when West Indies were able to give them target closer to 300. The match was a thriller and i have not seen such an close ODI in recent times.


and henceforth I’ll be watching their contests keenly as there’s an opportunity to make lots of money if they can keep giving such performances consistently.

So you will be betting on Srilanka or WestIndies in the future matches ?

Just now watched the highlights of the match. This was a match of nerves, very close match and very interesting. Next match will be more interesting and I am sure WI will come back. They played very well but lost. 9 run score by Wanindu changed the games outcome.
