South Africa once again looking strong in this world cup. After losing a game against Netherlands they have made a strong come back in today's game.
There is a partnership of 125 runs on 73 balls between Heinrich Klaasen and Marco Jansen. South Africa looking to score somewhere around 400 runs and once they do that it will be very difficult for England to chase that.

In the current World Cup, Sri Lanka have played three matches but failed to win a single match, thus Sri Lanka are at the bottom of the points table. Today Sri Lanka can celebrate their first win in this World Cup by winning this match against Netherlands. Chasing a target of 262 runs set by the Netherlands, Sri Lanka scored 132 runs in 24 overs for 3 wickets. Sri Lanka need to score 131 runs at the moment to win. But I think it will not be too difficult for Sri Lanka to win by 131 runs today. I can predict Sri Lanka advance victory today in my fortune telling.
Sri Lanka is looking still strong but they also lost 3 wickets. Then need to hold wickets the target is not high they can chase if they hold the wickets. At this time they have made 178 runs and lost 3 wickets. They need 85 runs on 108 balls.On the other hand South Africa and England are playing 20th match of ICC World cup. South Africa made 275 runs in 42 overs and lost 5 wickets. Let's see who will win in these two Matches.
In the Netherlands vs SriLanka match, the Netherlands set Sri Lanka a huge target of 262 runs. SriLanka is performing well. SriLanka need 159 runs in 33.1 overs to win. Which is not unusual if they bat well they can win easily. The Netherlands will have to play at their best at the moment then SriLanka will be under some pressure.

The Netherlands won the toss and chose to bat first against Sri Lanka. We might see the first close match of this World Cup. On paper, the Sri Lankan team looks strong, but the Netherlands has the momentum from the previous match, along with boosted confidence. All their batters are in good form. The Netherlands will try to score runs against Sri Lankan pacers. Sri Lanka's spin bowling will be the deciding factor in this match. I am hoping that this will be a close contest.
What a strong comeback, Netherlands 91 runs in loss of 6 wickets from 21.2 overs to 262 all out from 49.5 overs. Another great effort from Netherlands who are showing that they very much deserve to be at this tournament. The lower-middle order into the rescue for the Netherlands in matche against Sirlinka. The record-highest 7th wicket highest partnership of 130 runs between Sybrand Engelbrecht and Logan Van Beek has taken the men in orange to a good total 262. Dilshan Madushanka picked up 4 important wicktes by giving 49 runs in 9.4 Overs and Kasun Rajitha also picked 4 wickets by giving 50 runs in 9 overs, standout bowlers for Sri Lanka against the Netherlands. 
The Netherlands team was under a lot of pressure from the power play. But the Netherlands team did not perform well in the beginning in today's game as the bowling pressure of the Sri Lankan team resulted in the loss of 6 wickets for 96 runs. But I thought the Netherlands team would not score that much and might get all out by few runs today, but no. Saybrand and van Beek turned the game around for the Netherlands as both scored half-centuries. Their performance has assured victory for the Netherlands team and will give the Sri Lankan team a big score of runs. And Netherlands team is also very strong in terms of bowling so today's match between Sri Lanka team and Netherlands will be very competitive.
The Netherlands team has given a target of 262 runs at the last minute.
When the Dutch team lost six wickets for 71 runs, it seemed that the Netherlands might not be able to collect 120 runs, but the Dutch batsmen later showed that they can back up well under the pressure of a batting disaster. They could not play full 50 overs but in the end they threw a target of 262 runs on Sri Lanka. If the Netherlands bowlers can bowl well and put pressure on the Sri Lankan batsmen then they are likely to win against Sri Lanka like South Africa. We expect the Netherlands to put pressure on the Sri Lankan batsmen. The Netherlands team has given a target of 262 runs at the last minute.

Netherlands already lost 3 wickets and now they are on 54 runs and only played 12 overs. If they will continue this situation and Sri Lanka bowlers bowl more decently so I think Netherlands will not cross 100 runs. If Netherlands will cross 100 runs so over all they will not cross 150 runs. Kasun Rajitha is on fire at this time and already bowled 6 overs and got 3 wickets and gave only 24 runs.
Batting in the first innings of the Sri Lanka vs Netherlands match, Netherlands have lost 6 wickets so far. And the Sri Lankan bowlers are doing a good bowling performance in today's match for which Netherlands are under pressure at the moment. Sri Lanka is a strong team compared to Netherlands and they play well but unfortunately Sri Lanka have not won a single match so far. So far Sri Lanka have played three matches and lost all three matches, accordingly they have a chance to win the match against Netherlands today. But we saw how Netherlands performed in the previous match against South Africa and beating South Africa was really great. In today's match against Sri Lanka, if Netherlands will perform bowling as before, Sri Lanka will definitely lose to them. However for today's match I think Sri Lanka will perform well enough and win the first match of ICC 2023 World Cup. At this moment, Netherlands have lost one more wicket and collected 222 runs for 7 wickets in 45.1 overs.

So today Netherlands and Sri Lanka wil face each others. Netherlands already surprised us when they were against South Africa. So today Netherlands can gice surprise again. Because Sri Lanka has very bad performance in this world cup and we can see Sri Lanka in the bottom in points table. Netherlands have much better performance as compare to Sri Lanka.
If Netherlands will win today match so Netherlands will be in the list of 4 points. And will compete with South Africa Pakistan and Australia. So let's see who will win todays match.

At this time, the match can go in favor of Sri Lanka team because the Netherlands plays very poorly. The twenty overs were passed and the Netherlands couldn’t complete 100 scores and also, they lost 5 wickets, so it’s clearly a chance for the loss of the Netherlands, and just now one more wicket hit and all the batsmen of Netherlands lost a wicket and now bowlers are forced to do the job of batting. I think the Netherlands all-team would be out in the 30 to 35 overs,
This is also a great chance for Sri Lanka to grow their run rate and points. They should not miss this opportunity and win by a big margin.

Sri Lanka have already played three matches where they have not won a single match whereas Netherlands have won one match in the first three matches. Netherlands won against South Africa but today against Sri Lanka is going to be a tough match for them. The match that Netherlands won against South Africa was an accident and accidents don't happen in every match. With this match against the Netherlands today, Sri Lanka may have a good start to winning the World Cup. In a press conference yesterday, the Netherlands captain said that the win against South Africa was an accident, but winning against Sri Lanka would not be an accident. Against Sri Lanka, the Netherlands may go into the field with a winning plan but it is very difficult for them to win this match.

Today there will be two World Cup matches. The first match will be between Sri Lanka and Netherlands. Both the teams have performed poorly which has resulted in the bottom of the points table. Sri Lanka is at number 10 in the points table and Netherlands at number 9. So far Sri Lanka have played 3 matches and lost 3 matches. On the other hand, Netherlands played 3 matches and won 1 match. Netherlands surprised by defeating South Africa, a team that performed well in this year's World Cup. If I have to predict today's match, then I think Sri Lanka are favourites. Today Sri Lanka are very much ahead to win. All World Cup teams have won at least one match, but Sri Lanka is yet to win a single match. Today it looks like Sri Lanka will get their first win.
2nd match England vs South Africa. South Africa has been performing well in this World Cup. But in the last match against Netherlands they performed very badly and lost. England won 1 out of 3 matches. South Africa won 2 out of 3 matches. South Africa is in better form than England according to current statistics. We will see a very competitive match. It is very difficult to predict this match. But South Africa are some way ahead to get the win.

I would say Pakistan's bowlers are responsible for the loss in this match. The batsmen batted well enough. It is unimaginable to win with a target of 368 runs. Bengaluru's 368 was probably the second highest score on this ground. And the average score of the first innings on this ground is 235 runs. There, Australia set a target of 368 runs. This is a very big target. It is very difficult to win such a big target against any team. Had Pakistan won today, it would have been a record.
Pakistan's opening pair played well. Babar and Rizwan's partnership would have lasted Pakistan's victory. But Adam Zampa bowled brilliantly today. He has brought back several very important batsmen to the dressing room.
I think both are the responsible for this loss. This pitch was a batting pitch. So the bowlers from both sides tried well. There is a big issue in Pakistani team players when the first wicket go down rest of the players become under pressure. Pakistan's opening pair played well. Babar and Rizwan's partnership would have lasted Pakistan's victory. But Adam Zampa bowled brilliantly today. He has brought back several very important batsmen to the dressing room.
Australia set a huge target for Pakistan and this was looking more difficult to chase. Congratulations to Australia.

I don't understand why everyone is blaming the batsmen, when Pakistan lost the match as a result of poor bowling. Abdullah Shafique and Imam-ul-Haq did well IMO. They scored at a run-a-ball, and added 134 runs for the first wicket partnership. It was the middle order that couldn't keep the momentum going. Babar Azam failed yet again, while Mohammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel couldn't convert their good starts to 50s. In the end, Pakistan had plenty of overs remaining, but ran out of batsmen. They were bowled out with 4.3 overs remaining in the innings.
I agree with your statement both batter and bowler are 50:50 responsible of this defeat, because first they leak tons of runs against thier top order especially Haris which are at another level while after that Hassan Ali and Nawaz they all of them allow thier opener to took a good start which will make things easy for them if they are ahead toward big Target, some miss field and catch dropping took match away form paksitan.While if we have a look at thier batting then thier main batter baber Azam dismissed with adding a significant runs at such important stage and I things that the stage where paksitan start to choke and later after iftikhar and Rizwan they completely lose a grip and hence they lose an important match, anyway it's much worth for Australia than paksitan because they are at bottom of table before that victory

Tomorrow is the two matches. One of Netherlands vs Sri Lanka and both teams are on downfall so any team doesn’t affect their wins or lose. This match will be played in Lucknow.
The team of Sri Lanka didn’t have any good results in this World Cup matches even though the Netherlands played better than Sri Lanka. The Sri Lanka team lost against Pakistan, Australia, and South Africa and the Netherlands team beat the South African team in this World Cup, so it totally means that the Netherlands is better than Sri Lanka. The Netherlands also lost their 2 matches but the Netherlands is a new team, they don’t have any big wins in cricket but Sri Lanka is a big team and this is a shameful thing for Sri Lanka if they lose this match.
