I will be going to tell the most unluckiest countries ever in cricket history,

As you know, in the last post, we knew about New Zealand, and in this post, we will know about India. India is also a team that has the same conditions as New Zealand.

They lost the 2015 World Cup semi-final, and then the 2016 World Cup semi-final in their home ground against West Indies, and after that next year, they lost the Champions Trophy 2017 against Pakistan on 18th June, and then 2019 is coming, that was the last World Cup of MS Dhoni and on 2019 Semi-final Dhoni was run out and after that we never see him.
In 2021, they lost the match with Pakistan and that was a remarkable loss for them. Pakistan won that with 10 wickets, and then they out from the World Cup. In 2022, they lost the Semi-final to England where Ben Stokes and Alex Hales got a wonderful partnership, and you know that in 2023.

Nissanka : Wow! A double centurion from Sri Lanka after what feels like an eternity. What a knock! Afghanistan bowling keeps going down the drain recently. Nabi is playing a gem of an innings both with the bat and ball.

On the other hand, Omarzai is supporting him very nicely. I still feel that Afghanistan will come slightly close and lose. Great fightback!

I was very surprised by Sri Lanka's batting today. This  team has collected 381 runs today. We have not seen such great batting from Sri Lankan players for a long time.

Pathum Nissanka remained unbeaten with 210 runs  off 139 balls. We  haven't seen such great batting in a long time. He batted very well. After giving such a big target, Sri Lanka had no chance of defeat. On the other hand, Afghanistan's top order batted very poorly. Afghanistan team lost 5 wickets for only 55 runs. However, Azmatullah Omarzai and Mohammad Nabi's responsible batting helped Afghanistan collect big. Omarzai was unbeaten on 142 off 113 balls. And Mohammad Nabi scored 136 runs off 130 balls. Afghanistan managed to collect 339 runs in 50 overs.

Yes, the fight between the two teams is quite intense, although this match is sure to be defeated by the Afghanistan cricket team, still the players of the Afghanistan cricket team are passing the innings through hard efforts. The Afghanistan cricket team's batsmen have reduced the target gap given by the Sri Lankan cricket team a lot. Because of the failure of the bowlers, the batsmen of the Afghanistan cricket team have to work so hard in this match. Afghanistan cricket team still needs 70 runs from 16 balls to meet the target given by Sri Lanka cricket team. Now let's see how many runs Afghanistan cricket team must lose against Sri Lanka cricket team in today's match.

In Sri Lanka vs Afghanistan 1st ODI match Sri Lanka team now comes to bat. 61 runs in 8 overs. Sri Lanka team has not lost any wicket till now let's see how well Sri Lanka team can perform in today's match. I think Sri Lanka  Lanka team may be able to give a target of 290 runs in today's match and if they can't score 290 runs, it will be very difficult for Sri Lanka team to win this match. If the bowling line of Afghanistan team performs poorly, Sri Lanka team will win this match very easily.
Sri Lanka batsman played very well and worked hard and struggle and make 381 run.This is the good and very hard target for Afghanistan batsman.The Afghanistan bowler did not work hard and struggled at all and could not stop the runs.  Rather they have achieved a big target of 381.  Which is not going to be fulfilled by them. If they do it will be a big win for them and Sri Lanka's hard work will go down the drain.  But according to my estimation Sri Lanka will win the match and get victory.If Afghanistan bowlers worked hard and struggle they could have won this match.  But now they are ready to lose.The match is on now.  Now let's see who wins.
I thought Sri Lanka would score between 300-320. Lanka's opening pair of Nissanka and Avishka Fernando batted brilliantly, putting on a partnership of 182 runs. Avishka Fernando was dismissed for 88 but Nissanka continued to bat at one end. Nissanka completed his first career double century, remaining unbeaten on 210 runs from start to finish. Sri Lanka was able to set a target of 382 runs due to the skill of the opening batsmen. Afghanistan started to bat and started losing wickets and lost five wickets to score 55 runs. Azmatullah and Nabi are batting brilliantly in the sixth wicket partnership, both of them are already batting on the pitch with centuries. Afghanistan still need 116 runs from 42 balls. If the pair survive I think Afghanistan will lose by a close margin.

In this post, I will be going to tell the most unluckiest countries ever in cricket history, and the most interesting of cricket is there but they are the most unluckiest team ever. They had players, rankings all the things but lost World Cups.

These are the three countries so I will finish it in detailed posts. Yes, I am talking about India and Pakistan, and New Zealand, but in New Zealand, they did not too much interest in cricket. Let's come to New Zealand: They lost the 2011 World Cup semi-final against Australia and the 2015 World Cup final match and then the 2019 World Cup final they lost because Ben Stokes cheated and New Zealand lost. Then, 2021 World Cup final, they lost against Australia and after that, they lost the 2022 World Cup semi-final against Pakistan, and in the last World Cup 2023, they lost the semi-final.

There is clearly nothing interesting here. The Lankans are decimating the opposition thanks to an excellent opening partnership and I am expecting them to post a total of around 350 or higher.

Afghanistan continue underperforming considering their immense potential. This match will go to the Lankans in my opinion.

Lankans are having no problem so far. 181 in 26 overs and still openers are on the crease, both batting on 87. This opening partnership is 4th all time highest partnership for Sri Lanka in ODI. Current forecast is 350 runs and if Lankans keep moving like that they will surely cross 350.
From Afghanistan perspective, they need wickets to stop Sri Lanka from making a massive total. It will be difficult for Afghanistan to win this game but still they must try to stop Sri Lanka from making extraordinary runs.
Pathum Nissanka played an amazing innings, scoring 210* off 139 balls against Afghanistan in the ODI series opener. This is the highest score ever by a Sri Lankan in ODI history. Nissanka's fluent knock will be remembered as one of the best in Sri Lankan cricket history. Apart from Mendis, all the batsmen displayed great batting skills. Considering Afghanistan's team, I don't see any chance of them chasing down this total. Aghan already lost their 2 wickets.

Well, so far both these teams faced each other twice in the u-19 WC finals and India won both finals so not sure if Australia has any advantage.

However, it could be argued that the current Indian batch is not as strong as previous ones so the result could be unpredictable, which makes the contest juicy for everyone.

Conditions also matter. SENA conditions ideally suit Australia. While talking about the senior side, India has world class pacers such as Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami, who neutralize any such advantage. But the U19 squad doesn't have any such edge. India's bowling attack is dominated by spinners, with Saumy Pandey being the top wicket taker in this tournament for them. On the other hand, for Australia Callum Vidler and Tom Straker have been exceptional and both of them are pace bowlers. It is going to be a tough challenge for the Indian batsmen. 
Usually, this statement is true at the senior level and no one can deny this but I am not sure if it's applicable at the u-19 level as well because India has won twice in finals against Australia in SENA countries.

Both teams are high in confidence because of tight wins in the semis and i hope, no one will back down in the finals so it's 50-50 for me.

The AustraliaU19 team has done well and made it to the final, but that doesn't mean they will definitely win against IndiaU19. Just because of that Tom Hartley got the most wickets in a previous match doesn't mean he will be successful in the final. The Indian team also has talented players who have done well in the tournament. It's important to think about both teams strengths and weaknesses and how they have performed overall instead of just looking at past statistics. The final result will depend on how well both teams play and perform on the day of the match.

One advantage with India is that recently a lot of money has been poured into the age group cricket system, and as a result many of the younger players have access to high-class infrastructural facilities and training. The advantage with Australia is that their grass-roots cricket system is quite strong in the colleges and school. That is how they are able to challenge India, despite having less than 2% of the population in comparison. Anyway, fingers crossed for the final. Even now, I would say that Australia has a solid advantage over India.

Looking at the performance of the Australia U19 team in tomorrow's match, it seems that the chances of Australia U19 becoming champions in this final is very low, especially as Australia U19 defeated by just one wicket and advanced to the final. In this case, I don't see Australia U19 as favorites in the final. However, in the final match in front of Australia, the equation will be settled because if the India U19 team wins, then the revenge of the last 2023 Men's Cricket World Cup will be done. I don't think Australia will be able to continue their winning streak in U19 World Cup. If Australia Under 19 perform the way they did against Pakistan in the final, then India will have the best chance of winning the final.

Afghanistan won the toss and invited Sri Lanka to bat in the first match of the ODI series between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan today. In my opinion, it would have been better if the Afghanistan team had batted first in today's first match. We have seen the test match between these two teams where Sri Lanka team performed much better than Afghanistan team and won the match. Now it is waiting to see how well Afghanistan team players can prove themselves as good players in ODI. As today's first match has just started, the course of the game cannot be determined yet. The bowlers of the Afghanistan team have bowled 6.5 overs so far. But in between, the Afghanistan team has not yet shown a strong example of their bowling. Now let's see how well the Afghanistan team can bowl in today's ODI.
Bowling line of Afghanistan cricket team is very bad. In the playing conditions, it seems that the bowlers of the Afghanistan cricket team will fail to stop the batsmen of the Sri Lanka cricket team from batting well in this match. Sri Lankan cricket team batsmen batting is very good. Sri Lankan cricket team batsman Pathum Nissnka and Avishka Fernando in a great partnership, Sri Lankan cricket team has collected 148 runs so far. Looking at the batting of the Sri Lankan cricket team, it seems that the Sri Lankan cricket team can score 350+ runs in today's match.

Sri Lanka is playing really well. They have made 115 runs in 15 overs and they didn't lose any wicket. You are looking SriLankan team at 290 runs. But if they will continue this performance so I think they will easily go above 300 runs. Avishka Fernando and Pathum Nissanka both are playing well. Pathum Nissanka have made 68 runs and Avishka Fernando made 43 runs. If they will play the whole overs so I think they can easily make 350 runs and this target will be an excellent target.

And according to the current situation SriLanka has made 132 runs with no loss.

Nepal vs Canada

Nepal won the toss and elected batting. Nepal batsman makes 10 run in 1 over and Canada no any wicket against Nepal batsman. This is the good started for Nepal batsman. Canada bowler out the Nepal batsman in the first ball of the 10 over. This is the first achievement for Canada team. Nepal batsman makes 53 run in 10 over and 1 out. Nepal batsman are working hard and struggle and make run. Once time again Canada bowler out the Nepal batsman in the third ball of the 15 over. This is the second achievement for Canada team. Nepal batsman makes 224 run in 50 over. This is the target for Canada batsman. This is the good target. Canada batsman can not complete this target and lose the match.Nepal bowler out the all Canada batsman in 47 over and won the match.
This game was very going very good and tough in between these teams Nepal team vs Canada team. Nepal team won toss and Nepal won a chance first bat or bowl lineup in this game but Nepal team chose bat first. This is a new series begun Canada tour to Nepal and Nepal set .
Nepal won the match by his own well bowling prefromance. Nepal team made 224 run and Canada made 217 run Only seven runs were left but unfortunately all the Canadian players lost their wickets due to which Canada lost the match with five overs remaining if they had kept their wicket they could have easily won the match. canda was going quite well in the batting but he could not play full overs , batting side of canada P Singh and Kirton paly very well and both are completed his own century.

Tomorrow is the match of Canada vs Neal once again, and yesterday was the same match for them, which was a surprising match because in 18 overs Canada needed 53 runs and these runs they could easily make, and their 4 wickets were also left but Nepal bowling in the ending was wonderful. Canada touched victory but the Nepal team did a miracle which the Canadian team may never forget. This performance by the Nepal team came surprise to them.

Nepal's bowling is wonderful but their batting was just average, some players made very good runs from Nepal like a player who made 50 from Nepal and who is Kushal Bhurtel, and in this target he had main character while the others made runs but not too much.

I said they were a bit lucky because of the slow over rate they had to bring the fielder up in the circle as they were penalized, and Macmillian utilized that opportunity to hit the winning 4 to the boundary.

MacMilllan didn't utilize anything, it was pure luck, ball took an edge and went for a boundary, it was not intentional shot that you could say he utilized the field.

When fine leg was brought up in the circle, commentator said, is it a good thing in this situation? Because with tailenders, fours usually go through fine leg or third man, yes they were penalized and were forced to bring one player inside but I'd say it was amateurish decision from Pakistan's side that they brought fine leg inside the circle.

You can say that too, it is just another way to put forward his intent to win. Pakistan team was good with thier bowling attack, throughout the tournament they dominated. The problem with Pakistan was that they were dependent in the batting performance of thier openers. That back fired them big time as they waisted so many balls. If they had a 200 runs on the scoreboard they would have won yesterday and we would have been waiting for Sunday to watch the finals.
