2 interesting encounters coming up people. We have Afghanistan and Bangladesh duking it out and it's tough to tell who will win among them since they seem evenly matched, but my bet is on Bangladesh.

Also, we have South Africa taking on Sri Lanka and am expecting them to comfortably defeat the Lankans primarily thanks to their great batting line-up.
Currently, Afghanistan's performance is relatively poor. Our Bangladesh is currently much stronger than Afghanistan. In the last 2015 and 2019 World Cups, we started by winning the first match. Hopefully we can start with a win in today's first match of the World Cup. If we look at past matches we can say that Bangladesh is definitely stronger than Afghanistan. But nothing can be said for sure here because it is impossible to tell what happens on the field of play. Good luck to you. Hope your bet is successful. I used to participate in betting but unfortunately due to problem with my betting account I am not able to participate in betting.
Both team has a good performance and both team has 50/50 chance to win. Bangladesh is considered a good team, this time Afghanistan is not a bad team either. Afghanistan are batting first and have scored 20 runs in 4 overs so far. The quality of play is not bad, Afghanistan can probably give Bangladesh a target of 260+ runs. Achieving such a target will not be very easy for Bangladesh but it is not impossible either. Taskin Ahmed conceded only 8 runs in 2 overs. His bowling quality is very good. The performance of both the teams looks very good in the match
Bangladesh's captain Shakib Al Hasan made a breakthrough, dismissing Zadran for 22 off 25 balls. Afghanistan appears to be a well-rounded team, particularly in their bowling department. In the World Cup stage, Bangladesh has often proven to be trustworthy. While Afghanistan team has yet to register their first victory against Bangladesh in this ODI World Cup stage. The question remains: can Afghanistan get their first ODI World Cup victory against Bangladesh? Let's see.

I like to treat everyone as a friend 🔹
The two teams will play Afghanistan vs Bangladesh in the first ICC World Cup match today. Bangladesh has decided to bowl the opening and Afghanistan will bat, between these two matches today I think Bangladesh can win. We have seen that Bangladesh were in good form in the warm-up matches, and they have batted and bowled well, so they can play well against Afghanistan today. But if Afghanistan can improve their game, they may have a chance to win against Bangladesh today.  Afghanistan's batsmen need to put up a good enough batting performance against Bangladesh today and score higher runs. But in today's match, according to the bet avoidance, Bangladesh has the highest chance of winning, and Bangladesh will try to perform well against Afghanistan in today's match. Moreover, most of the people are betting on Bangladesh to win, and my personal prediction for today's match is that Bangladesh will win the match.

Once again, the problem with less experienced sides such as the Netherlands is that they buckle under pressure. If they had utilized the opportunity, then they could have got Pakistan bowled out for 220-230. Pakistan were at 188/6 at one point. But the Dutch bowlers allowed them to add close to 100 runs after that, as lower order batsmen such as Mohammad Nawaz and Shadab Khan made crucial contributions. And the Dutch captain also made a lot of mistakes, as he didn't utilized two of this best bowlers during the depth overs - Logan van Beek and Paul van Meekeren.

The Netherlands clearly showed a lack of experience. They were well in the game in the first innings, and then the captain decided to go with part-timers and leaked easy runs. Pakistan's batting lineup panicked, but in the end, they somehow managed to set a good total.
While batting, the momentum was with the Netherlands, and they were going nicely. The partnership between Vikramjit and De Leede looked threatening, and if they had continued the partnership, Pakistan might have panicked, but Vikramjit's poor shot selection cost them the match, as the other batters were not able to withstand Pakistan's fast bowlers. 
Overall, not a dominating performance by the Pakistani side, on the other hand, the Netherlands played some good cricket, and the a lot of positives for them from this match, especially De Leede.

Statistically Dharamshala's wicket and Bangladesh's fast bowling unit will give Bangladesh a much better lead than Afghanistan in this match. Fast bowlers will get a lot of bounce on the wicket that has been built in Dharamsala which is very good for Taskin Shariful Hasan Mahmood or Mustafiz. 
We have nothing to plan or think about Bangladesh's bowling, only concern is what the Bangladeshi batsmen do. When we look at the list of batsmen, it seems that Bangladesh has the best batsmen in the World Cup but the field performance fails to prove that Bangladesh is the best in batting. 

Like in the Asia Cup we might see Liton Das and Mehidy Hasan opening the batting (However, Mohammad Naim opened with Mehidy Hasan in the Asia Cup) .Best wishes to Bangladesh team, hope they start with first win against Afghanistan.

This game is really an eye opener for Pakistan team. Today's game clearly indicate that Pakistan had a terrible batting lineup. There is 120 runs partnership between Rizwan and Saud then there is 64 runs partnership between Shadab and Nawaz. Due to these two partnership Pakistan was able to score 286 runs. Vikramjit Singh and Colin Ackermann played well from Netherlands side but were not able to get good support from other end. In the end, Pakistan will be happy for not losing 2 valuable points.

Lack of experience had its impact on the match. These are good opportunities. In bowling they're good, but certain partnerships weren't able to be broken. With the batting they should've done better. The team had got good batters, and I expected atleast 250+ runs from them losing by a small margin. More 9 overs remaining, if they had stood wickets more 50-60 runs could've come. In yesterday's match it was Bas de Leede who is really good with the bat and ball.

They have  an excellent squad. The squad has a lot of  experienced players. But the performance of the players is very erratic. If Rizwan and Shakeel had not played big innings today, Pakistan would  not have scored 200 runs.  Pakistan's top order failed today. Pakistan won because the opponent was a weak team like Netherlands. If the opponent in this match  was a team like bangladesh, afghanistan or sri lanka,  Pakistan would have been defeated in this match. Pakistani batsmen have to bat more carefully in the coming matches.
We have seen a match that we can say is scoring on these pitches, as the pitches in India are completely made for batting. Pakistan, today have their match in hand finally, as they have defeated the Netherlands team by a best margin of 81 runs. Both Muhammad Rizwan And Saud Shakil added 68 runs each to the total. Also, Shadab Khan and Muhammad Nawaz batted well, by scoring 32 and 39 runs consecutively. While in bowling Hassan Ali bowls well and took 4 wickets.

The Netherlands Team failed to achieve their target of 287 runs today, while they all fell for 205 runs. Although they tried hard. A good match we have seen today.

You know most of the matches of this World Cup will be played on batting friendly pitches.  In the warm up matches we saw that every team was able to score high n every pitch was batting friendly.  Also in the first two matches of the World Cup we saw batting friendly pitches. Even then England, Pakistan and Netherlands did not do well.

Pakistan have been suffering from their batting weakness for a long time. We have seen Pakistan poor batting in the Asia Cup matches as well.  If Pakistan's batsmen bat in such a manner in the upcoming matches, they will not be able to qualify for the semi final.

Netherlands team is not experienced enough, they scored 205 runs against Pakistan. Their bowlers performed well but batsmen did not perform well.  However the batsmen of this team are also capable of scoring high.

Let's focus on tomorrow's 2 Big Matches!
1st Match will be between Afghanistan and Bangladesh:
If we look at their recent matches, they both have played 15 matches in which Bangladesh won 9 times and the remaining 6 matches have been won by Afghanistan, not a big difference between their winning performance. The Bangladesh Team is looking strong enough to play some sensible cricket tomorrow.

2nd Match will be between South Africa and Sri Lanka:
Both teams looking good, but South Africa is massive these days, they have already played 80 matches till now in the ODI in which South Africa has won 45 matches the most, on the other side Sri Lanka has won 33 times, and the 1 match has been tied in between them. We will see some good cricket tomorrow between these two, especially from the side of South Africa.

After losing three early wickets Pakistan done good job and was able to score 286 runs on board even Netherlands were disciplined in bowling and fielding, but sadly they were not able to stop Mohammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel to score this good target and bring themselves in difficult position but still this was entertaining match to watch till end as after having target like this their batsmen play good and bring Pakistani bowling under pressure which was perfect part of this match but still at the end experience works for the Pakistan, and they were able to bowled out them at the score of 205.

Even Pakistan won, but now they need to sit and think about their future matches because with this performance they are not able to have chance for the top four, specially against top teams which can pull them out of the game with their quality and performance.

Pakistan team in deep trouble. They have lost 6 wickets so far and net score is just 188. It looks like that Pakistan won't be able to play there full 50 overs quota today. Saud Shakeel and Rizwan are the top scorer with 68 runs each. This is not a good start of the tournament from Pakistani side, with this batting they won't be able to progress much further in the tournament.
They have recovered a bit and the score for them is 286 runs for all wickets down. Pakistan may be able to make a score which they will be able to defend against the weak batting side of Netherlands.  Special thanks to Mohammad Rizwan  and Saud Shakeel who made 68 runs each. Also we see some batting by the bowlers like Shaheen Shah Afridi and and Haris Rauf which helped Pakistan reached a reasonable score.

Netherlands are 52 runs with two wickets down. I don't see them winning from here. I guess Pakistan will easily win this match. I hope no one bet on Netherlands today.

Pakistan vs Netherland

Pakistan managed to score 286 runs in 49 overs after losing all wickets in the first innings against Netherlands. There were more expectations from Pakistan where the Netherlands were Pakistan's opponents. Babar Azam Mohammad Rizwan did not perform well.  Pakistan lost three crucial wickets early on which caused them to be in a lot of batting trouble early on but the middle order batsmen of Pakistan were able to take flight after that.  

A target of 287 runs on such a batting friendly wicket is an easy target for any team, if the Dutch batsmen don't give away wickets and if they can hold on to the wicket then they can surely collect 287 runs.  
After 12 overs so far, Netherlands have collected fifty-two runs for two wickets. Since Netherlands lost two wickets in the beginning, this match is still in favor of Pakistan.
Yes, you are right. Pakistan can win this match easily because Pakistani bowling line up is very good and Pakistan  Can defend this score. Pakistan will win this match .In past, Pakistan played very on Indian Wickets. Now, Netherland is playing very well. Muhammed Rizwan played excellent and made  68 runs in just 75 balls. Shakeel made  68 runs with just 52 balls, Muhammed Nawaz made 39 runs in 43 balls. Pakistan all team out by making 286 runs. Bas de Leede  took 4 wickets  by giving 62 runs in  9 overs. Colin took 2 wickets  by giving 39 runs in 8 overs.Vikramjit Singh is playing very well and he alive on 35 runs in 51 balls and Bas de Leede is not out on 27 runs in 28 balls. Netherland 's score is 88 runs with fall of 2 wickets. Match is very interesting but Pakistan will win at the end.
Everyone knew that Pakistan was the favorite in this match. But in the match when Netherlands built a partnership after losing 2 wickets that was quite commendable. If two more batsmen like Vikramjit Singh and Bas de Leede were in the team or could perform like them, it would have been a good session against Pakistan. But I saw that after the loss of the 3rd wicket, no one else in the Netherlands team could build a good partnership. Logan van Beek did well for the team. He was ultimately unbeaten in the team no one give him support. Netherlands lost the match by 81 runs but they had 9 overs to spare. If they had wickets, maybe they could have set a new record in this match. Finally it was no longer possible. As the condition of Netherlands team their contribution were not bad against Pakistan.

Netherlands need 162  runs in 25 overs to win. It is difficult for a team like Netherlands. And the opposing Pakistan bowlers are very experienced. And today their performance is very controlled. We haven't seen many good performances from Pakistan's batsmen. Even then they managed to settle down a target of 287 runs. If the bowlers can continue bowling under control, it will not be difficult for Pakistan to win.
Haris Rauf took two wickets in an over and the balance of the game shifted again in Pakistan's favour. I guess, at one moment it seems that Vikramjit Singh and Bas de Leede would take the game away from Pakistan and that innings by both of these players looked a bit threatening.

Anyways, Pakistan were able to bowl them out in 200 odd runs and they won the match by approx. 80 runs. Saud Shakeel was the player of the match as he made 62 runs in only 52 balls earlier in the afternoon today.
27th over of Haris Rauf was game changer for the Pakistan otherwise things were going into trouble for them spinners were not effective as they needed in middle over and Partnership between Vikramjit Singh and Bas de Leede create headache for the Pakistani bowling specially Bas de Leede having very good start of this event with bowl and bat first he took 4 important wickets which bring Pakistani bowling under huge pressure and during his batting he was really impressive, and his short selection was also amazing.

With this lost surely they are going to have heartbroken but still we can expect good performance from them in coming matches specially against minor teams because their quality is not good enough for challenging top teams.

Pakistan leave the field with a huge 81-run win over the Netherlands, congratulations to the Pakistan team. We have seen that Pakistan team did not perform very well in the beginning of today's match, but later they scored good runs due to the excellent form of Rizwan and Saud Shakeel. Setting a target of 286 runs, Netherlands were bowled out for 205 runs to meet the target and Pakistan secured a huge win. In Pakistan's first match of ICC world cup today, they put on an interesting performance in front of the crowd and won brilliantly at the start. But we have seen Pakistan lose their warm-up matches and seeing their performance, many thought that Pakistan might not win today's match. But their batting and bowling lines have improved tremendously at the start of the World Cup compared to the warm-up matches, so if they can keep going, good things are definitely in store for the Pakistan team. Pakistan team is currently in good form and if they can improve their batting and bowling a bit more, they will surely have good points.

Pakistan put themselves in a great position after giving a target of 286 runs after losing 3 quick wickets at the beginning and middle phases. The partnership that saved them was between Shakeel and Rizwan.

Leede bowled really well. Netherlands have a couple of good batsmen, but I don't think they will score above 250.
In today's match, Netherlands have already scored 150 runs in 29.2 overs with the loss of 5 wickets. Pakistan's bowling line-up is good and they are performing very well today. However, in today's match, Pakistan performed poorly in batting. At the moment, however, Pakistan are in danger as the Netherlands now need 137 runs to win. Today's ground being a batting pitch, 137 may not be too difficult for Netherlands. But today's match cannot be predicted as the ground is a batting pitch.  Do you think Pakistan can stop Netherlands before 286 runs today?
Looking at the momentum of the game, it is clear that to stop the Netherlands, the bowlers of the Pakistan team need only one more push. The Netherlands team has so far collected 202 runs for the loss of 9 wickets in 40 overs. Although the Netherlands team batsmen have 10 overs left. But, in terms of wickets, the Netherlands are in dire straits.  Now if, the bowlers of Pakistan team can make a wicket fall of Netherlands team. Then the Netherlands team will be forced to end the innings here. I hope the Pakistani bowlers will be able to stop the Netherlands team in a very short time. The bowling of Pakistani bowlers in today's match is really commendable
