In the first innings, South Africa managed to score 222 runs against Australia losing all wickets. The behavior of the wicket looked like the wicket was a bit bowling-friendly, however the target was 223 for Australia where Australia secured an easy three-wicket win with ten overs in hand. Winning the first match of the series is another step towards winning the series. As it is a five-match ODI series, there is still plenty of opportunity for South Africa to turn around in this series.

South Africa missed the opportunity to secure first win as it was looking easy win for SA once time. SA were so closed to win thais match because all top orders batsmens doesn't batted well. SA bowlers failed to pickup 3 more wickets. at start it wa not easy win but Marnus Labuschagne and agar partnership totally frustrated SA team. In the next matches it will not easy to restrict Aus , their top order will enter in the ground to score big.

Now Australia has regain the no 1 rank after winning the match and now standing with the 119 rating. Pakistan is standing no 2 with same rating. If Pakistan win against the India then Australia will down to No.2 rank otherwise Aus will retain it's position.

What a lovely win!
I've noticed that Australian players never give up; they keep fighting till the end, and this is the result. Marnus Labuschagne once again showcased his value as a concussion substitute. He played a brilliant innings under immense pressure, and Ashton Agar made a handy contribution too. Congratulations to the Aussies! Marnus and Agar's innings were truly magical. Keep it up.

Of course I watched yesterday's match from beginning to end but one thing that really bothered me was that when everyone in the team failed, South Africa's favorite player Temba Bavuma scored an unbeaten 114 in the face of a tough disaster but the man of the match was awarded to Marnus Labuschange. But one of the main reasons why Marnus Labuschange was given the man of the match was that he was the only player to remain unbeaten in the impact player for tomorrow's match, scoring an unbeaten eighty runs and giving Australia an eventual victory. Maybe cricket experts declared Marnus Labuschange Man of the Match for this important contribution.

Man of the match award is usually given to players who are capable of winning matches for their team. In this case, Temba Bavuma despite his century could not guide South Africa to a win. On the other hand, it was Marnus Labuschagne who made a match winning contribution. In my mind, there is no confusion on who should be the man of the match. Anyway, this is a 5-match ODI series. Australia is up 1-0, but still there is plenty of time for South Africa to catch up. And they should also remember that this series is more like a warmup ahead of the ODI world cup.

Pakistan Women vs South Africa Women

Today is the first ODI match between these two teams they will play in Karachi, Pakistan. In both of teams we can't predict who will win because this the first ODI match. But if we took a look on T20 match series so we will see that Pakistan won 3 out of 3 matches. And Pakistan preform really well. In the Today match I hope Pakistan will perform well again. And will try to win this series too.

Pakistani women team is more confident because they recently whitewashed South Africa women in the T20 series. Now ODI Series of 3 match start Today at 3:30 Pm. I think Pakistani women perform well some quality players like Nida Dar, Bismaah Maroof and Saida Iqbal have great form if they continue Pakistan women surely will win this series. South African women tried to win this series because they already lost the T20. South African women team has some great in form players Laura Wolvaardt who Scored well against Pakistani women bowlers

Generally we know South Africa team to be stronger than Pakistan women's team. But Pakistan women team players have shown excellent dominance this season. They played well in the T20 series. And they won the series 3-0. This was a big achievement for the Pakistan Women's team. The 3-0 T20 series win against South Africa was tough. And the Pakistan Women's team will definitely want to continue this dominance in the ODI series as well. However, South Africa women's team is very strong in ODI format. South Africa is currently ranked third in the women's cricket rankings, while Pakistan is ranked tenth. That's why I think the chances of Pakistan Women's team dominating the ODI series is a bit less.

South Africa vs Australian match is a fine example of, what batting depth does to the opposition.

Number 9 batter, which counts as a tailender scoring 48 runs and stitching partnership with a specialist batter. Result, they won the match when they were 7 down.

This is really great performance from the tailend player. The best part, team had more overs left, but they maintained the runrate and won it earlier. The tailend haven't took much pressure. He did what is being suggested by Labuschagne and a solid 100+ partnership between the two have come after Australia's pathetic situation of 113/7. Once again Australia have started its win count.

He hardly looked like your typical tailender but again this tells you about the quality of the Australian team.

Overall, this kind of batting depth will shape the outcome of the ODI WC. If not then your 2-3 bowlers and the same amount of top order batters need to perform consistently

South Africa VS Australia

South Africa batted first in today's match and set a target of 222 runs in 49 overs. South Africa does not think they can win today with the runs they have scored today. If Australia team can perform well in batting then they can win easily by crossing this run. Australia team now come out to bat. 42 runs in 6.2 overs. So far Australia lost 2 wickets. Australia lost 2 wickets and now under a lot of pressure. I don't know which team will win today's match between the two teams.

Although 222 is easily chasible in ODI especially when team like Australia batting which has ability to chase even in t20 but today match is looking in the favor of South africian team. All top Australian batsmens are out without scoring big and now full pressure on the Aussie. In 12 overs Australia made 72 runs. The run rate is good enough but they lost 5 wickets which is big trouble for Australian team and now if they lost two more wickets then very low for Australia win. If Australia make partnership here then match will become tough because score is not big, only problem is wickets and Aus should not take any risk here in this stage .

Australia is at its worst situation losing the 6^th wicket. As of now Australia have scored 97 runs in 14 overs. As said the run rate is well maintained, but the loss of wickets keeps the team at the edge of losing the match. Cameron Green had retired hurt, and his comeback might help in scoring little runs. Anyhow South Africa's winning probability have reached 70% from 15%

I am very surprised by Australia's batting today. I saw Australia's performance in the T20 series. Australian batsmen have batted well in all three matches. And the team won all three. This is why Australia decided to field today after winning the toss. But Australia batted very badly today. South Africa has given a target of only 223 runs. Although Australia's run rate is more than 6.5, the team has lost wickets very quickly. The team lost 6 wickets before collecting 100 runs. After 22 overs, Australia's collection is 149/7. Australia still need 74 runs to win. It doesn't look like Australia will win. Labuschagne remains unbeaten on 38 off 29 balls. And Aston Agar scored 20 runs. The way the South African bowlers are bowling, Australia is probably going to lose today.

South Africa is truly unlucky. Based on the performance at the beginning of the innings, now Australia could've ended the innings losing all the wickets. Labuschagne withstands wicket and scored 52* runs and Ashton Agar is giving good support scoring 27* runs. If the scoring continues this way Australia will win the match before 35 overs, because Australia have the run rate of 6 rpo whereas the requirement is 2.38 rpo. Lets see if South Africa can make it their match or Australia wins the match.

After losing 6 wickets for 93 runs and 7th wicket for only 113 runs I don't think Australia can win this match. Labuschagne Ashton Agar is batting responsibly and Australia are slowly building their way to victory. Australia need only 15 more runs to win in 13 overs. Australia lost 7 wickets and collected 208 runs. Labuschagne remained unbeaten with 76 runs and Ashton Agar with 35 runs. Australia will be able to build such a wonderful partnership in the eighth wicket pair that the South African players probably never imagined. Australia will probably face no more problems in winning the match. After winning the T20 series, Australia will dominate and win the ODI series as well.

Australia performance in this complete series looks like maybe this series is not for South Africa because South Africa lost T20 series 3-0, after losing T20 series we expected South Africa to bounce back against Australia but in the first match South against Australia, Africa lost by three wickets.

In the first innings, South Africa managed to score 222 runs against Australia losing all wickets. The behavior of the wicket looked like the wicket was a bit bowling-friendly, however the target was 223 for Australia where Australia secured an easy three-wicket win with ten overs in hand. Winning the first match of the series is another step towards winning the series. As it is a five-match ODI series, there is still plenty of opportunity for South Africa to turn around in this series.

Thoroughly enjoyed the match yesterday between South Africa and Australia. Matches such as this one shows why Australia is the most favored team to win the ODI World Cup this time. And before that credit needs to be given to Temba Bavuma. After a series of failures, he got one good score to his name and made sure that South Africa reaches a total of more than 200. And then Australia was struggling at 113/7. But the 112-run partnership between Marnus Labuschagne and Ashton Agar took them home. South African bowlers completely failed to break this partnership, after toiling really hard until then.

Australia lost 2 wickets and now under a lot of pressure.

Australia won the 1st ODI match by 3 wickets and leads the 5 match series by 1-0. South Africa had a poor performance in batting they only scored 222 runs in the loss of all wickets in 49 overs. South Africa captain Temba Bavuma played well inning and scored a century 114 runs unbeaten in 142 balls. Australia chased down the 225 runs target in a loss of 7 wickets in 40.2 overs. From Australia Marnus Labuschagne scored unbeaten 80 runs contributions for this victory. South Africa just short 50 runs in target they should improve their batting performance

One of the main contributors to Australia's win today was Marnus Labuschange(80*) who came on as a substitute for Cameron Green. However, he was supported by Aston Ager's 48* which was the highest run of his ODI career. Today, Labuschange and Agar led the team to the port of victory by playing a Test-like style of play in colorful clothes. However, when the Australian team, which lost seven wickets for 113 runs, was facing a huge disaster, if this long partnership had not played in the Test style and played in an aggressive manner, Australia might have been all out before 200 runs.

Right The Recent Performance of the Australian team is outstanding in all formats of Cricket. But the performance of South Africa is very poor they do not play like a team only individual performance could not win matches. In 1st Odi No other batsmen expect Temba Bavuma to score runs but in ODI cricket partnership between players is very important. He is the only South Africa player that play beautiful and score a well deserved century also scored 114 runs unbeaten. While the performance of Australia was brilliant especially when no batters scored Marnus Labuschange and Agar played a good inning and a good Partnership will help to win this match by 3 wickets and 10 overs spare in the match. Josh Hazlewood Australia premium fast bowlers picked up 3 Crucial wickets by just giving 41 runs in 10 Overs and helped the team to victory

South Africa were down too much and the batsmen couldn't score any runs. Only one batsman scored a century and he ended up staying on the field by entering the field as an opening batsman. Vabuma of the South African team scored 114 runs alone but no batsman partnership with him could survive. If Vabuma could have been supported by other batsmen, then the fall of wickets would have been less, so if they could have collected more, the Australian team would have faced a lot of pressure. However, due to the strong Australia team, the South African team was under a lot of pressure in terms of bowling.

Who knows? It might be the opposite. Bangladesh may win the match against Sri Lanka as Bangladesh is under pressure at this moment.

Yeah. It's completely possible because Bangladesh is one of those teams which regularly upsets the favorites. Sri Lanka is primarily depending on Pathirana and Theekshana to restrict the opposing team's total.

On the other hand, Bangladesh continues depending on Shakib who keeps performing consistently in the ODI format. Let's see who wins!

I am not really expecting any upset this time. This time Bangladesh team looks completely out of touch in almost all the matches they played, only good match was the one against Afghanistan but that was also a flat pitch against not so great Afgan pace bowlers. No help for spinners which was why even the star spinners of Afghanistan couldn't perform.

Bangladesh is probably not going to win. And I definitely wanted Bangladesh to perform better in this tournament. After all, Bangladesh has a history of performing really well in the Asia Cup, even though they have lost by a very close margin many times.

I can see they have lost two times against India, in the finals of the Asia Cup. One time they lost by two runs, and after that they lost by one run again. And against Pakistan, they have lost in the Asia Cup final by three runs. I also remember Bangladesh losing a match against India in a final by conceding six runs in the last ball. I don't remember if that was another Asia Cup final or not. But to be honest, if we look at the current squad of Bangladesh team, we actually cannot expect too much.

Asia Cup already entered in Super Four Zone now. There were 6 matches in Super Four Zone and one match played between Pakistan vs Bangladesh. And 5 are remaining. And the remaining 5 matches will be played in Colombo and the Final will also be played in Colombo.
If we talk about over all performance so we will see that Pakistan's performance is really good and according to the current performance I hope Pakistan will win Asia Cup. Not sure but I am expecting that.

After suffering humiliated defeat against Pakistan and having poor form in last few matches, most chances in next match against Sri Lanka at Colombo we will have another defeat for them and with this exit from this event as well because they are not well-balanced side in last few months and their performance is also on decline which is the big problem for them after this Asia Cup we have no time for preparation as World Cup is also coming within 28 days so with current form most chances they could be out of the top eight because mostly quality teams will beat them badly they need to work on domestic level if they want improved results and better performance against quality teams.

Sri Lanka is also facing problems, but they are still much better and well-balanced side which can handle all situations with well-balanced way of playing, hopefully in last few matches of the Asia Cup we will have entertaining cricket from these teams.

Marnus Labuschagne and Ashton Agar unbroken century combination exemplifies the real spirit of Australian cricket, turning the tables when it looked like the game was slipping away. What an incredible innings Marnus Labushagne snd he is the first player in the history of cricket who is the Concussion player in both Test and ODI Cricket..

Australia did not lost the match from the pressure they had. They would have lost this match if their last partnership broken down. South Africa fail to do that. Marnus Labuschagne added 80 runs to his name and is unbeaten. Another batsman Ashton Agar also tried to play carefully in the match adding 48 runs to his name. From a difficult stage they brought this match under their control. Marnus Labuschagne is named Man of the Match in today's match. Finally South Africa got a chance but failed to capitalize on it at the end. Great win for Australia in the first ODI of the series. In cricket, how much advantages the team gets when a player set in the pitch and it can be easily estimated through this match.
