I will tell you the ranking of every particular team that plays cricket, and the teams who are present in the top 1. On number 1 India had a place, and in this team, all the players were very well, this is the team that can win all the matches but cannot win the important match that decides the champions and from this thing, they were never won an ICC trophy from the last 10 years,

They won the last Champions trophy in the captaincy of Dhoni and after this Indian team has never won any ICC trophy, and the last ODI World Cup that they got was under the captaincy of Dhoni, and the last T20 World Cup they got, was also inside the Ms Dhoni's captaincy.
Yes, you are right.  Indian International cricket team is top class team and no team is like Indian International cricket team. Indians are very focused on their quality cricket but  they lose World cup final against Australia. They remained unbeaten in the Whole tournament and they lose match that was final. In 2017, Pakistani International cricket team lose India by a high margin. Indian lose Pakistani International cricket team in pole match but lose the final. It means Indian International cricket team can't handle pressure of final match and they are the winners of small matches and they can't win big matches.

Good game and good show by the Ireland Women, they played some good cricket because the way they achieved the target in just 13.1 overs, even I have noticed at some point whether they are playing the tt20 cricket but rather saw at their openers were smashing through out the boundaries and they have made good runs and that was all about their passion to the cricket and the way they have already been produced some good cricketing shots today.

Ireland Women's team vs Zimbabwe Women's first ODI match, Zimbabwe did not bat that well as Zimbabwe Women's team was bowled out for just 170 runs. Zimbabwe women's team should have batted responsibly because only 170 runs is not a big target in an ODI match. So if Ireland could have given a little bigger target, then today's match would have been within their reach. Ireland's bowlers bowled exceptionally well in today's match as they bowled out their opponents Zimbabwe for just 170 all out. It is expected that Ireland will not have much problem to win the target of 171 runs. Because they have 50 overs in hand, so if you watch them protect the wicket and bat responsibly, they will easily win against Zimbabwe women. Now let's see how well the Zimbabwe women's team can bowl in the end.
In the first ODI between Zimbabwe Women and Ireland Women, Ireland Women won the toss and sent Zimbabwe Women into bat. Zimbabwe Women played defensively from the start but kept losing wickets along with short partnerships, collapsing for 170 in 42.5 balls. After the end of the first innings, the match was interrupted by rain, Ireland women's team had to make a target of 110 in 21 overs using the DLS method. It didn't take long for the Ireland women's team to chase down the target, with Amy Hunter scoring an unbeaten 36 off 39 balls and Gaby Lewis scoring 65 off 41 balls. Ireland women's team lead the series 1-0 with a big win by 10 wickets.

Actually it is not Ireland and Afghanistan are making their survival difficult. Ireland is in very poor form ever since they got the test status in 2019, and even if they lose to these teams it can be justified by saying that they lost to test nations. But what about the recent defeats to African associates such as Namibia and Uganda? And also in the ODI World Cup qualifiers, they lost to Scotland and Netherlands. These sort of defeats triggers a lot of questions and the decision by ICC to keep the test status of Zimbabwe will look more and more unjustified with each passing day.

I think ICC don't have much options to choose from. There are 12 test teams at the moment including Zimbabwe and Ireland. Bangladesh has got test status in 2000 and in last 23 years they were not able to produce any good test results but they also have test status intact. West Indies and Sri Lanka are also down and out in test but they also have there test status. There are only 4 to 5 out of these 12 teams who have the capability to play test and give good performance rest are there to just fill the table. 

I will tell you the ranking of every particular team that plays cricket, and the teams who are present in the top 1. On number 1 India had a place, and in this team, all the players were very well, this is the team that can win all the matches but cannot win the important match that decides the champions and from this thing, they were never won an ICC trophy from the last 10 years,

Zimbabwe women's team scored only 170 runs for 10 wickets in 42.5 overs. I saw the highlight of this match Zimbabwe women lost their wicket at regular intervals their first wicket fell for just 4 runs then the second wicket for 39 runs. The 170 runs scored by the Zimbabwean women's team will probably be too easy a score for the Ireland women's team.Because 170 runs is not a very big and strong score in ODI cricket if Ireland women batting well according to their strength today they will win this match today.Now the innings break.The game will start in no time and the Ireland women's team will fight for victory.

This was more or less expected. Men's game is alive in Zimbabwe, just because they have some legacy players such as Sikandar Raza, Sean Williams and Craig Ervine. Almost all of them are in their late 30s and may retire from active cricket very soon. And now coming to the women's game, they have no such luxury. Domestic cricket is in pathetic state and whatever funds they get from the ICC gets stolen by the politicians. Zimbabwe is going the same way as Kenya. And my biggest worry is that South Africa may follow the same path.

Zimbabwe Women vs Ireland Women
First ODI


Ireland Women team won the toss and chose to bowl first. The match has already been started and Zimbabwe Women was playing. And at this time match has stopped due to rain. The Match already set to 46 overs due to rain and now they have stopped the match due to wet outfield. Zimbabwe already played 15 overs and made 43 runs and lost 3 wickets. If the Match will start again so it will be little bit difficult to say which team will win.
While typing the match has started again.

This is the first ODI match between Zimbabwe women and Ireland women. Ireland women won the toss and first decided bowling. Zimbabwe women batsman makes 3 run in 2 over and Ireland no any wicket against Zimbabwe batsman.This is very bad started for Zimbabwe women batsman. Ireland women bowler out the Zimbabwe women batsman in the last ball of the 3 over. This is the first achievement for Ireland team. Zimbabwe women batsman makes 15 run in 5 over and 1 out. Zimbabwean batsmen are not working hard and struggle and not scoring runs. Zimbabwe women batsman makes 30 run in 10 over and 1 out. Once time again Ireland bowler out the Zimbabwe batsman in the fourth ball of the 13 over. This is the second achievement for Ireland team. Zimbabwe women batsman makes 170 run in 43 over and 10 outs. This is the target for Ireland batsman. This is the easy target. Now let's see Ireland Batsman can complete this target or not.

Zimbabwe Women vs Ireland Women 1st ODI match will be competitive if Zimbabwe Women can give Ireland Women a big target. Before Zimbabwe vs Ireland 1st ODI match it is not possible to say which team will win of course cricket is a game of uncertainty whichever team plays well will definitely win. But first as Zimbabwe women batting first they must keep the target if they can give Ireland women a big run target if they bowl controlled then maybe they can win today's match. Although the match was stopped for a while due to rain, Zimbabwe batsmen may not be able to do much as the field was wet. Still, let's see how many runs the Zimbabwe women's team can target to the Ireland women's team.

It seems that Group B have some top teams which include England also which have some good batting players and when we look at South Africa which seems to be more dangerous teams according to their bowling attack which mostly putt them in the winning situation and the other team West Indian are also famous for their sixes against different teams. So, the matches between these group will be quite good and we can easily get some enjoyment likely to be very soon.
In this event, we have no big team all are doing good but as we know India is having much better and solid system for the youths so just they are had chance for staying as favourite, but others can face unpredictable results because these youngsters are going to start their careers, and they have to face ups and downs which are surely giving them good lessons for their rest of the careers.

In group B, we have England, West Indies and host nation South Africa which makes some interest about them because here any team can do good performance on game day and can go to the next round with others are having not better teams like this group but this is still game of nerves and any team can win on game day with their solid performance.

India will be the favorites without any doubt. They performed quite strongly in the tri-series against Afghanistan and South Africa. After them, it maybe Australia and England, as they have a very strong grass-roots setup. And then South Africa will be having the home advantage. You can't discount New Zealand and Pakistan as well. BTW, I don't have high hopes for West Indies. They are in overall decline, and the same can be said about Sri Lanka as well. And regarding the other teams, Afghanistan and Bangladesh may score a few upset wins.

So let's see which team will perform well and will win World cup.
It is hard to tell which team will win this year, defending champions India looks good. Australia is doing well and they can be seen as one of the contenders. Not sure about Bangladesh they won the Cup in 2020 so did South Africa in 2018. India has won the maximum time and this time they are again the favorite to win. The teams to look at this year are the USA, Namibia, and Nepal, they are all new teams. I have not seen these three teams play so won't be able to comment on how good they are.
There is no doubt most of the teams are unpredictable, and we can expect any result from them like we have few weeks back while India and Pakistan lost into semifinal, and we have Bangladesh and UAE into final with Bangladesh won the Asia Cup with after watching groups we can predict about few teams which can make into way for the last four like India, Australia are hot favourite with England and South Africa will fight for top spot with Pakistan and Afghanistan will fight for the top spot into their groups but still any upset still can happen.

But, good thing happening as we are now having teams from Namibia, Nepal and USA as well which are doing good progress into game and things can take good turn into future for them as well.

Afghanistan and Ireland both teams have test status by ICC but they're not still played enough match in test cricket but they also got status and ICC given status 19 teams and ICC ranking nearly 100 teams in ODI format but how much team got qualify to play world cup and other big event. So status is doesn’t mean every team will play well and show good results.
Yeah, Afghanistan and Ireland got into test status in 2019 and both are having only 7 test matches in last four years with Afghanistan won 3 and lost 4 and Ireland was unable to win any which is clearly indicating how things are going in this format, so better thing is now they stop this all and bring more teams for the white-ball format which helps them for having more interesting cricket and which is also better for the entertainment purpose.

We are currently having 12 teams in test format and just 5 or 6 are able to have better things with all others are losing their quality and things are also not favourable for them in finances, so now it's time for bringing more teams into shorter formats instead of going into this which is not affordable to all.

England U19 vs Pakistan U19
Bangladesh U19 vs Australia U19
Scotland U19 vs New Zealand U19


I am not sure who will win the matches from these teams. But I think Pakistan U19 Australia U19 and New Zealand U19 may win today match. So let's see who will win today match. Smiley

Most of the warmup matches till now have got washed out. And today's matches are the last batch of warmups, as the tournament will get started on 19th January. India U19 will be playing against Sri Lanka U19, and I hope that the Indians will get at least some match practice out of it. A few days back, they were involved in a triangular tournament, which also saw the participation from South Africa U19 and Afghanistan U19. India U19 will be one of the favorites to lift the trophy, along with the hosts and Australia U19.
