I would like to include few more.

1. Ravindra Jadeja winning runs for CSK followed by emotional Hug from MSD (best of all).
2. Glorious run feast for Gill including a double ton.
3. Rohit Sharma destructing every bowler in the World cup, including the final.

In overall, 2023 had some exciting moments but the curve of ODI is going down evidently since teams are focusing more on T20 leagues hope the legacy will continue better than this.

What are your thoughts on Afghanistan's performance and the overall standings in the tournament?
If you ask me about the whole tournament so I will say that Indian Under Nineteen team is better than from South Africa Under Nineteen and Afghanistan Under Nineteen team. Because if you took a look on the first match of this Tri-Nation Tournament how decently Indian Under Nineteen team beat the Afghanistan team.
 And now the India and Afghanistan both have 2 2 points. Still we can't say anything. But I hope the Indian Under Nineteen team will win this Tournament.

Afghanistan U19 lost the first match from India U19. And they had to win this match to cover up the last match loss. Afghanistan Under Nineteen team tried really well. They set the target of 177 runs for South Africa Under Nineteen team. The target wasn't much higher or you can say it wasn't difficult to chase. But the South African team was not able to chase. They just made 129 runs with all team out. Unfortunately they lost the match. Arab Gul and AM Ghazanfar was good in bowling from Afghanistan. They got 4,4 wickets. So for now, in the point table India and Afghanistan have 2,2 points. And South Africa has zero points.

Afghanistan U19 performed well in their match against South Africa U19, securing a target of 177 runs and winning the match. Arab Gul and AM Ghazanfar played a significant role in the bowling department, each taking 4 wickets. With this victory, Afghanistan U19 has accumulated 2 points in the point table, along with India U19. On the other hand, South Africa U19 has yet to secure any points.

What are your thoughts on Afghanistan's performance and the overall standings in the tournament?

You are right the target wasn't much higher and that was chase able but unfortunately South Africa U19 did not chase it. Afghanistan U19 gave a target of 177 runs. They played only 39 overs. Because South Africa U19 has good attacking bowlers. Like we can see Mondli Khumalo collected 4 wickets and Kwena Maphaka collected 3 wickets.

After that South Africa U19 started their turn bu unfortunately they have not a good batting line they were not able to chase the 177 runs target. They played 30 overs bur unfortunately lost all wickets at 129 runs. Arab Gul and AM Ghazanfar both collected 4,4 wickets. Excellent performance Afghanistan team. Smiley

Top 10 cricketing moments for me in 2023.

1- Bazball.
2- Yashasvi Jaiswal's debut test Daddy Hundred because of his struggle story.
3- Head's ton in WTC finals and ODI WC final against India.
4- Maxwell's freak double ton against Afghans in ODI WC.
5- Afghanistan beating England and Pakistan in the ODI WC
6- Rachin making a statement in ODI WC
7- Kohli's 50th ODI ton.
8- Shami's dream run and unforgettable spells in the ODI WC.
9- First WPL
10- India W beating ENG W and AUS W in tests.  

Yeah, what year it was, and you paaji have summed it up beautifully. The dream of Jaiswal to be part of the Indian cricket team has come true, whereas as for now he is in the process of destroying it in South Africa. Maxwell cramped body but never stop attitude got him his double century against Afghanistan has now been recorded in the history of cricket. When Kohli got his 50th ODI ton, every Indian cricket fan was celebrating his achievement.

You should have added another cricketing achievement to that list. The Australian captain, Pat Cummins achievement as a bowler in 2023 was astounding in 2023.

Indians need to think about this as well and having approach of better things is also important if they want to have one of the best in the world with their game and technique.
Indian women's team lacked mental strength among their players which led to their second match loss to Australia women's team. I thought the India women's team might win the second match but they lost to Australia by just three runs. India Women's team has not been able to perform in ODI matches as per the way they played against Australia Women's team in the first Test match. Let's see third ODI match Indian women team if they can win their last match against Australia women team.

Sad news for South Africa U19 squad fan because this sqaud lost this match very badly because defending target given by against sqaud Afghanistan U19 squad was not fantastic which but South Africa U19 squad was not defended this target. Highest scores were made today by Lhuan-dre Pretorius batter from South Africa U19 squad but this sqaud lost this match. In Afghanistan U19 squad, Rahimullah Zurmati batter played good inning and this batter made highest scores from Afghanistan U19 squad 47 scores in 83 deliveries. Let's see how South Africa U19 squad display in next match against India U19 squad.

I believe India actually took that a little easy. Otherwise, there was no reason for them to actually lose that match. They had a very good situation from which they should have been able to win. But in the end, I think Australian women did very well to come out as the winner from that match. India had a golden opportunity to stay alive in the series. But they didn't take the chance well at all.

And I believe Annabelle was given the man of the match because she had the most effect on the match. And the importance of her in that match was good enough for Australia.
We have two problems here with Indian team, one they took this match easy and other needs to work on their technique which is not suitable for the ODI from test to quickly playing ODI surely it's not ideal situation, but they need to understand and give their best for the win which is important. Australians are best cricketing minds in world with their grooming and technique and professionalism is impressive which helping them for having success after success and not think what happen yesterday just go ahead for today and tomorrow this mentality helping them for having better results.

Indians need to think about this as well and having approach of better things is also important if they want to have one of the best in the world with their game and technique.

You summed up one of the best years for cricket very nicely. Maxwell's miracle, Kohli's 50th ton, Afghanistan recreating David vs Goliath moments and the first WPL were truly exceptional moments.

Am personally looking forward to the T-20 World Cup and new IPL season next year. Exciting stuff!

Yes, you are right. We saw exciting scenes in the World Cup 2023. Rohit Sharma failed in 2023 for winning World Cup. Indian International cricket team aimed to win World Cup 2023 but Australian team played very well . Especially Travis head who changed the fate of India. Indian International ODI cricket team was unbeatable in 2023 World Cup but India lost World Cup due to proud .No doubt Indian International ODI cricket team has top class bowlers like Mohammed Shami and Bumrah and Indian team has top class batsmans like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. With this they failed to win World Cup final. It shocked Indian fans.

At one stage of the match, Indian supporters thought that India Women's team would pull off an easy win but finally it was not happen. The game of the whole team changed in the last 3 overs. India needed 21 from 18 balls to win but found it difficult to prevent their wickets from falling from then. The Indian team lost the match after coming back from the chances of winning the match easily. Vastrakar lost his wicket in 47.4 overs and Harleen Deol in the 49th over. Thus in the end they lost the match by only 3 runs. They would not have lost the series if they had won the second match of the series. Now India women will have to take the title of Whitewash if they do not win the last match. They will definitely try to do well in the last match.


Australian women's team won the yesterday's match against India with the just three runs. It was a very intense match where the result did not come until the last ball but after the last ball we got a result and the result was very good for Australian women.

Annabel Sutherland was the player of the match but I think Annabel didn't play that well. Maybe she played well but not so well as per her form. But as the others player's performances were so down. they are not played better than her , so from somewhere we should agree herself on the player of the match. She gave 47 runs in bowling that was on the higher side but took three wickets, She scored only 23 runs.

I believe India actually took that a little easy. Otherwise, there was no reason for them to actually lose that match. They had a very good situation from which they should have been able to win.

2023 is almost over and 2024 is extremely close people. This was a great year for cricket in my opinion primarily thanks to another entertaining IPL season, ODI World Cup, Ashes etc off the top of my head.

Personally, my favorite moment was Maxwell's miracle which is the stuff of legends where one man saved an entire team when they were done and dusted. Looking forward to 2024 cricket.

An incredible year for cricket! It's wonderful to hear that you had a great year of cricket in 2023, with highlights like the IPL season, ODI World Cup, and the Ashes. Maxwell's miracle sounds like an unforgettable moment indeed!

As we approach 2024, what are you most excited about in the upcoming cricket season, and do you have any predictions or players to watch out for?

Tri-Nation Under-19s Tournament in South Africa

South Africa U19 vs Afghanistan U19

Today is the second match of Tri-Nation Under-19s Tournament in South Africa. There was the first match between Afghanistan U19 and India U19. In that match India U19 won the match. Today Afghanistan will play with South Africa U19. The match will start after 5 hours. And this is little bit difficult to predict that which team will win the match. But I hope Afghanistan U19 will try to win this match to cover up the last match lost. Let's see what will happen?  Smiley
South Africa under 19s team won the toss and they gave a chance to Afghanistan under 19s team for bat first on ground. Afghanistan under 19s team effort was not brilliant as we expected but Afghanistan under 19s team made only 176 runs target in 39 overs and they lost all wickets. R.Zurmati player showed good effort and he scored 47 runs in 87 balls and hitted four 4s. One of more player J.Zadran also performed good and he scored 33 runs in 53 balls and he hitted four 4s. At this time, South Africa under 19s team batting is starting on pitch and South Africa team has scored 100 runs in 22 overs and losing 6 wickets, only 76 runs for chase in 28 overs and also 4 wickets left.

Australia W VS India W 2nd ODI
There is a saying in cricket, "Cricket is a game of glorious uncertainty". So it cannot be said in advance which team will win. But based on the game on the field it will be proved which team will win. But according to our plan we hope that the team we support will win.
You are absolutely right predicting any team victory from start is meaningless because we all know that team won by thier performance not by our prediction and all those will win who performed well on day match. If we took these guys idea then according to them Australia, India, paksitan shouldn't be defeated against a weak team which is totally wrong because at different event and series it got proved and they lose against a weak team for several times

The second ODI will be played between India Women's team and Australia Women's team. Earlier, India Women's team lost to Australia Women's team by a huge margin of 6 wickets in the first ODI match. India Women's team must win two more matches against Australia Women's if they want to win the series.
Second ODI has been finished and Australia took dominance over Indian, no doubt indian side give them tough fight back but thier performance were not up to the mark and that's why they lose and important match through which they lose thier entire ODI bilertral series too. Some guys from Indian side done a good job but unable to make a victory for his team.
In the second ODI of Australia Women's Team vs India Women's Team, India Women's Team restricted Australia Women's Team to 258 runs. In the first ODI, Australia women's team won brilliantly, in the second ODI too, after giving a target of only 259 runs, Australia women's team won the match by just 3 runs. Congratulations to Australia Women's team for a five run win.
In the second ODI match as well, the Indian women surrendered like helplessness to the Australian women's team like in the first ODI match. We saw Australia women's team win the first ODI by a huge margin of 6 wickets against India's women's team and they maintained that consistency in the second match and even won the match. I think India may have lost to luck in the second ODI where they lost to Australia Women by just three runs. Australia Women's team has already won the series 2-0 with a win against India Women's in the second ODI.
op I agree with you because Australia women's team performed very well in the first match and won very convincingly. But in the second ODI match, India women's team kept the Australia women's team under a lot of pressure, they managed to limit the Australia women's team to 258 runs. But the Indian women's team did not bat that well. If the Indian women's team could have batted a little better, then maybe they would have won against Australia women. Could have won the second ODI match. It's very bad for the Indian women's team as they lost the second ODI to Australia by just three runs. Of course, India women's team will prepare well for the next match. Play well so that they can win the next match.

The main thing that I will say Indian women team was not have that performance that they have on the men team. Indian men's team is a strong team against Australia team but Indian women's team is very weak against Australia women's team.  Which we have seen time and time again, I don't think there is anything good for the Indian women's team in the upcoming matches.

The performance difference between the Indian men's and women's cricket teams, particularly against the Australian teams. It's important to acknowledge that each team has its strengths and challenges. However, it's worth noting that sports can be unpredictable, and teams may evolve.

What specific improvements or changes do you think could enhance the performance of the Indian women's team in future matches?
