India U19 Team vs South Africa U19 Team India U19 team performed really admirably in today's game. India U19 team performed well against Afghanistan U19 team India U19 team performed well against South Africa U19 team. India U19 team has retained the top spot in the points table due to their best performance. The way the India U19 team is performing, it seems that they will win the final match. Great win against South Africa U19 team. Congratulations to the India U19 team.

Today is the match of the South Africa U19 team vs Afghanistan under 19 and this is a proper chance for South Africa to play the final match against the India U19 team.

In this match, the South African team did wonderful bowling but if they bowled like they bat so they could easily win this match with a good run rate and if they won with a good run rate so after two days the final match would be played between India and South Africa. South African bowlers don't allow the Afghanistan team to beat them on their home ground.

It looks like that the Zimbabwe bowlers are very effective against the weak Srilankna batters. Before the 10th over was bowled they got 2 wickets, as the Srilankan batting line up is very weak. The amount of hype Zimbabwe gathered in the first ODI was amazing! As of now they are doing what they hinted. If Srilankna team losses this match it would be a clear indication that they should not be part of the test team squad. As being a test match playing team the board gets more paid by ICC. With so much corruption these guys should be stripped out of the test playing nations.

Zimbabwe vs Sri Lanka, today in the ODI series second match, Zimbabwe team batsmen batted very badly. But in today's match Zimbabwe batsman Craig Irvine played quite well. Craig Irvine of the Zimbabwe team was dismissed after collecting 82 runs off 102 balls. This batsman of Zimbabwe team has performed well. However, if Craig Irvine bats a bit more responsibly, he could have scored a century in today's match. But unfortunately the 8th over bowling of Dushmantha Chameera of Sri Lanka team knocked out this great batsman of Zimbabwe team. After the fall of Craig Irvine, no other batsman of the Zimbabwean team could stand the crease well in the face of the powerful bowlers of the Sri Lankan team. Zimbabwe team batsmen fell one after another due to strong bowling by Sri Lankan bowlers. In this match, Zimbabwe team lost all wickets after playing 44.4 overs and gave a target of 209 runs to Sri Lanka team. I think this target of 209 runs is not too big for Sri Lanka as a strong team. Now Sri Lanka is batting in the second innings. Sri Lanka lost 2 wickets for 36 runs at the start of the game. Zimbabwe's bowling looks to be off to a good start. If the Zimbabwean team can bowl well, maybe something different will be seen in this match.

Looks like Srilankan bowling has comeback, 6 wickets gone in quick succession. Zimbabwe had a run rate above 5 earlier now they are below 5. Only 10 overa left and they haven't been able to cross the 200 runs mark. If they can't go above 250 or upto 250 runs then this match will end up with them losing. Srilankan batting is not that good but a decent target is required to defend it by the bowlers. The only batter that batted well was the captain of Zimbabwe. Rest are just not that good as none of them have been able to get a 50 for themselves in this match.
The Sri Lankan bowling attack was brilliant especially the middle order batsmen performed fairly well but towards the end the Zimbabwean batsmen failed completely as they could not cope till 50 overs but were bowled out for 208 runs in 44 overs. However, Sri Lanka are batting at a target of 209 runs and Aviska Fernando was dismissed LBW early on. Later, Samarawicrama was cut out by Richard Ngarava. Now Sri Lanka is facing many setbacks especially two wickets falling for 16 runs means Sri Lanka are likely to lose today's match.
In the second ODI match between Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe started the batting fairly well but in the end they could not play the entire over and were bowled out for just 208 runs. If the Zimbabwean team could have played a full over, some more runs would have been added, but today's match could not have been won for them, but the game would have been full of competition. With a target of 209 runs, Sri Lanka batsmen are batting but Zimbabwe have made a great start. Sri Lanka's current score is 44 runs for 2 wickets with 12 overs to play. Maybe the Lankan team lost two wickets after 40 runs, but they are under some pressure, but they have the players to score 209 runs. I think Sri Lanka will win today's match very easily. Let's see how well Zimbabwe can perform in the end.

Previous match in between these sqaud Zimbabwe sqaud against Sri Lanka squad was ended with no result. In this match, Sri Lanka squad performance was very notable and reliable and they also collected good scores after playing 50 overs. But in current match, Sri Lanka sqaud performance was not going to be impressive in low overs they lost two main batters Avishka Fernando batter and Sadeera Samarawickrama batter. First Avishka Fernando batter collected only 4 scores and he got out and second Sadeera Samarawickrama  also collected only 4 scores. But Sri Lanka sqaud have high possibility to emerge victory in second T20 match. Now let's see Sri Lanka squad defend this 208 scores in remaining overs or batter or not.

Looks like Sri Lanka will easily win their ongoing match against Zimbabwe thanks to the low target and home turf advantage as expected. I placed a bet on the Lankans and am expecting decent profits.

I have no idea why anyone would bet on Zimbabwe considering the fact that they lost repeatedly against the Irish recently.

SL VS ZIM 2nd ODI

Zimbabwe's batting line has improved today compared to the first match. However, Zimbabwe's opening batsman Tinashe Kamunhukamwe has performed poorly in both the matches, getting out for 0 runs in the first match and also getting out for 0 runs today. Zimbabwe's batting line was good in the beginning, but after losing two wickets in a row, Zimbabwe is under some pressure. Sikandar Raza is one of the players of Zimbabwe he got out for 1 run today. Craig Ervine batted very well getting out for 82 runs. So far Zimbabwe have collected 183 runs for 5 wickets in 37 overs. Clive Madande and Ryan Burl are both at the crease and they both need to bat well. Zimbabwe's bowling is not very good or 280+ runs otherwise Sri Lanka will win easily. Let's see how many runs you can score in the end.

Zimbabwe's team is very weak this season, as they are not able to perform well defending the wickets. But in the second ODI match today, the Zimbabwean team kept the wicket but could not advance in terms of runs. If the Zimbabwe team wants to win this match today, then the batting performance has to be improved, if the Sri Lanka team can be given a target of 300 plus runs, the Zimbabwe team can win. Now the current pair is Craig Ervine is progressing towards the century, if he can play patiently today then Craig Ervine will definitely be able to complete 100 runs. He is at his best in the current season.

Craig Ervine has taken Zimbabwe to 158/4 after 33 overs. They have a good chance to make to 280-300. Ryan Burl is at the crease along with Ervine, and he is a very strong player as well. And after these two, it is going to be Clive Madande who is yet another talented batsman. Most of the Lankan bowlers have done well till now, and Maheesh Theekshana has been the pick of them. He nabbed the wickets of Joylord Gumbie and Milton Shumba. But any total in excess of 260 would be really challenging to chase at the R Premadasa Stadium.

Zimbabwe vs Srilanka

Today is the second ODI match. As we know that in the first match the match was abounded due to rain and finish without any results. But in that match the Srilanka team was looking more strong they set a good target. And Zimbabwe made 12 runs with 2 wickets lost when the rain started. Means they are weak as compare to Srilanka team. So I think Srilanka will win today match. If Srilanka will take first turn and set a target of 250+ runs so this will be a good score which will be difficult to chase by Zimbabwe team. So let's see who will win today match. Smiley
In the game of cricket I have seen many matches where many weak teams win against strong teams.Perhaps he can expect Zimbabwe to repeat that today.In the first ODI, Sri Lanka batted first and made a good score, perhaps Zimbabwe could not have won the match.But in today's match, Zimbabwe are batting first, at the moment they have collected 14 runs for one wicket in 3.5 overs.If Zimbabwe can build a few good partnerships they might be able to score 250 plus runs today.

Srilanka is no more a powerhouse of cricket and their level is similar to that of Zimbabwe. The host team won the toss and is batting very well with a run rate almost reaching 5.5. They have lost only 1 wicket this shows how bad Srilanka is bowling against them. The issue with the Zimbabwe side is that their middle order is unreliable as of now the top order is batting very well and a target near 300 runs would be hard for the Srilankan batters to chase.
It is true that Sri Lanka has lost its past heritage in cricket especially when Sangakkara, Mahela Jayawardene, Mathia Muralidharan, Sanath Jayasuriya, Thilaka Ratne Dilshan, Sri Lanka have given cricket services during their time Sri Lanka is likely to lose even with a weak team. Once Sri Lanka's main opponents were Australia and India, now Sri Lanka performs poorly even against Zimbabwe. Sri Lanka can qualify for the Champions Trophy this year, but looking at Sri Lanka's past records, I can't believe how degraded today's Sri Lanka is!

The Sri Lankan team scored massive runs in the first ODI match, but the match was postponed due to rain due to which the entire match was not completed. But in today's second ODI match, Sri Lanka team will definitely perform well as Sri Lanka team is in very good form in the current season. In this case, the batting line and bowling line of the Zimbabwean team cannot perform well due to which they show weakness in most of the matches. I bet for Sri Lanka team today, because Sri Lanka team did well in the first match and Zimbabwe team lost two wickets in the beginning, Zimbabwe team did not bet.

In the first ODI against Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka batted with power but due to rain, the game was not played again. Zimbabwe team is batting first in today's second ODI If Zimbabwe team can bat well and give Sri Lanka a target of 250 runs then maybe Zimbabwe can win the second ODI. Although the chances of Zimbabwe winning against Sri Lanka will be very low but the game of cricket is a game of uncertainty so it cannot be said which team will win if Zimbabwe can bat well then maybe they can win against Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka team current score 70 runs 17 for 2 again its game on. The way Zimbabwe team is batting if they don't lose their wickets then maybe they can score 250 runs if Zimbabwe team can play full overs.

Zimbabwe team they have performed well since opening today, Zimbabwe team has survived the field by protecting wickets, collecting 126 runs for just four wickets in 26 overs. If two of Craig Ervine and Ryan Burlcan perform for a long time, then if they can give a target of 270 runs, the Sri Lankan team will definitely have a competitive match with Zimbabwe. Sri Lanka team will definitely try to perform well in today's match.

You are right, sometimes a weak team can do well with a strong team. But it is impossible to say how well the Zimbabwe team can do against the Sri Lankan team in the second match of this ODI series today. All cricket lovers know that Sri Lanka is a much stronger team than Zimbabwe. However, in today's match, the batting start of the Zimbabwe team is very good. The Zimbabwe team has so far scored 72 runs for the loss of two wicket in 17 overs. If the players of the Zimbabwean team can maintain the run rate like this then a good score can be expected for the Zimbabwean team. However, there are many good bowlers in the opposition strong Sri Lankan team. Now it is to be seen how well the batsmen of the Zimbabwe team can play in front of the strong bowlers of the Sri Lanka team.

Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe 2nd ODI match is going to start today and today's match is expected to be really interesting. We saw the first match only to have the game stopped due to rain and then not restarted, and the result not given. But if Sri Lanka can improve their batting performance and bowling performance a little bit better today than the first day then maybe Zimbabwe will put up enough fight to win the match. As both the teams will try to play well to win the second match, if today's match is also rained out like the first match, it could be very bad for both the teams. However if the weather is good today then I think Sri Lanka have more chances to win against Zimbabwe, why Sri Lanka is expected to win as it is a home game.

Zimbabwe won the toss and decided to bat. But Zimbabwe couldn't get off to a good start in today's match. They lost two wickets for just 5 runs in the first match as well. Although the match was abandoned due to rain, the Zimbabwe team was not defeated. In today's match, Zimbabwe lost the wicket of Tinashe Kamunhukamwe in the first over. Kamunhukamwe failed to collect any runs. After 4 overs, Zimbabwe collected 15 runs. Setting a target of less than 260 will not be possible to defeat the Sri Lankan team. Zimbabwe have some talented batsmen in their squad. If the top order bats a bit better, Zimbabwe can collect more than 250.

I would say Zimbabwe were quite lucky in the first match. Hence the match was abandoned due to rain. If not, the chances of Zimbabwe losing the match were high. Batting with a target of 274 runs, Zimbabwe lost two important batsmen to collect only 5 runs.

Sri Lanka is a much stronger team than Zimbabwe. However, Zimbabwe's performance has been erratic. Their entire performance depends on certain players. Although the performance of Zimbabwe's bowlers is quite good, the performance of their batsmen is poor. If the Zimbabwean batsmen perform well in today's match, they have a chance to win against Sri Lanka. Otherwise Sri Lanka will have a very easy win.
You are right, if it wasn't for the rain I think Sri Lanka would have won the first match because Zimbabwe were under pressure after losing two wickets early on. Sri Lanka is definitely a stronger team than Zimbabwe. Both batting and bowling are much better than Zimbabwe in Sri Lanka. The match will be at Sri Lanka's home ground and surely Sri Lanka will perform well. Today I think Sri Lanka's chances of winning are very high.
First ODI match of Zimbabwe vs Sri Lanka we got to see the batting line of Sri Lanka but it started raining while Zimbabwe batting and then the field didn't play if it had not rained maybe Sri Lanka would have won this match. The second one day match will start shortly but I will put Sri Lanka ahead in today's match because Sri Lanka is much stronger than Zimbabwe in terms of both batting and bowling. But Zimbabwe bowled well in the first ODI if they bowl better in the second ODI then if they can restrict Sri Lanka to 250 runs and if they bat well then maybe Zimbabwe can win. But it will be very difficult for Zimbabwe to win against Sri Lanka but the game of cricket is a game of uncertainty and the team that performs well on the field will win. So finally let's see how well Zimbabwe can perform on the field.
