After losing the T20 series badly, South Africa are continues their struggle in the first ODI against Australia. This isn't the ideal start for their preparations for the World Cup. However, Bavuma showed his leadership qualities by fighting alongside the tail-end batsmen. He remained unbeaten with an impressive 114 runs! Bavuma's brilliant innings helped South Africa reach a total of 222-10.

Edit: Finally the Captain have played in a much responsible manner scoring 114* runs (142 balls). South Africa have set a target of 222 runs, lets see how fast Australia could reach the target.

After completing the t-20 series. The first match of the ODI series between South Africa and Australia has started today. Australia is fielding after winning the toss and deciding to field first. Bowlers of Australia team have picked up 5 wickets of South Africa so far. South Africa is a disaster in terms of wickets. I thought as a South African fan even if they don't do well in T20, maybe they can do well in ODI matches. But looking at the prestige of the game, it seems that the South African players could not change the style of the game. So far in the first innings game, South Africa have amassed 130 runs for the loss of 5 wickets in 31.4 overs. Due to the strong bowling of the Australian team, there is a lot of fear among the South African batsmen

Am expecting this match to have a predictable end where Sri Lanka will probably end up winning against the Bongs though it might go right down to the wire since both teams are evenly matched in my opinion.
Both teams desperately need this win to get one step closer to winning the cup.

Who knows? It might be the opposite. Bangladesh may win the match against Sri Lanka as Bangladesh is under pressure at this moment. I don't think Bangladesh will manage to beat India anytime soon. So, Beating Sri Lanka is the only chance for them. Even though I am from Bangladesh, I don't think Bangladesh has a chance to play final because they are way down.
Bangladesh has some good memories against Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka which is why I expect Bangladesh to fight back. Even Bangladesh always had close matches against All Asian teams, especially in the Asia Cup. If you look at the last five Asia Cup finalists, Bangladesh Played three out of the five last finals.

To survive in this Asia Cup mission, Bangladesh must win tomorrow's match. If Bangladesh can win tomorrow's match, then there will be a chance to qualify for the next round.

Some players are doing bad regularly, Bangladesh should field some other players instead of those players. At the moment, a big shock for Bangladesh is that Bangladesh's inform batsman Nazmul Hossain has been ruled out of this Asia Cup tournament due to a mild injury.
As Bangladesh has been doing very well in ODI cricket lately, Bangladesh must win against Sri Lanka. Before entering the field against Sri Lanka, Bangladesh must make a separate plan with batting and then enter the field.

South Africa vs Australia 1st ODI match South Africa batting. But today's match South Africa's batting performance has not improved at all, they have already lost 5 wickets. Australia bowling line is very good for which they bowled well and put South African batsmen under pressure. Temba Bavuma is currently in the batting for South Africa, he has shown a good performance from the start and if he can continue, he will hope to score good runs. At the moment, if South Africa can improve their batting performance in the match, it will be possible to score a good run. At the moment South Africa's batting has lost 5 wickets for 108 runs in 27 overs.

Commision etc are not a reason, there are many layer to it.
This one is my best guess, there are many ticket/pass quota systems for influential people . It can be anyone like a local cricket club, players, govt ministries, complimentary passes to celebrities, all state board associations, sponsors etc. Sometimes numbers can touch at least 2-3k seats and when these passes come into circulation, the majority of passes go directly to friends and families. It happens for every international cricket match in India/IPL and most of the tickets happen to be premium seats so when there are some marquee/hyped matches, there is a possibility that some might think of selling his/her pass on the black market.
I remember one such opportunity wherein I got a VIP pass in IPL. This was back in 2016 and when IPL was in the phase of becoming the biggest Cricket franchise league. You could easily get an alcohol based drinks with a iew which was incredible. The ticket covered everything as in the food & alcohol. Anyone who gets a VIP pass or experienced it would know how enjoyable cricket can become with such an atmosphere around you. It is like watching cricket in a 5 star hotel.
That doesn't mean that this platform charge INR15 lac. The tickets generally costs around 7k to 10k depending on what you choose. This is nothing but extortion on the pretext of watching a match between the biggest rivals. Some of Pakistani elite might have brought those tickets. Knowing Indian elite class they would have ignored it and would have worked on their network of influential people to get a VIP ticket.

South Africa VS Australia
I am also excited to see today's match between South Africa and Australia. This match already started a few minutes ago and Australia won the toss and decided to bowl first. I see that the performance of South Africa in this match is also not as good as in previous matches. South Africa scored 73 runs in 19.3 overs and lost 3 wickets. T. Bavuma played well and scored 33 runs in 55 balls and the other players disappointed the SA team and this can be the reason for South Africa's defeat today. Other hand performance of the Australian team was great and let's see this performance maintained in the batting lineup. September 07, 2023, 07:43:30 AM
BCCI deserves the blame for this, these fucks just don't care about the fans. In India ticket distribution and sale is a joke anyway, as far as Indian matches in WC or IPL marquee matches are concerned. In an ideal situation, tickets should be available in the public domain for at least 6 months before the WC so that fans can plan everything in advance.
I don't understand this one thing, that is how BCCI allows such shit to happen within their nose. Isn't they who have given contracts to certain companies to sell tickets online or offline. They should be aware of such extortion by a company like the one reported. Then why were they not able to take action before the media got hold of this issue. I am pretty sure someone from BCCI got a huge commision to ignore this scandal. This is a slap to India and big slap to Jay Shah, he should have taken action before such issue came to the media. Being the son of the home minister of India he should have used his dad's contact to get hold of the situation before it became viral.

South Africa VS Australia
I am very interested in today's South Africa vs Australia ODI match. I haven't seen a better performance from South Africa in the T20 series. South Africa lost all three matches in the series. Not that South Africa played too badly. Australia's players are in very good form right now because of South Africa's defeat.
The series is important for Australia. Australia will play a series against India after this series before the World Cup. As Australia aim to become world champions, they need to continue their good performance in the ODI format from now on. Players have to come up with consistency of performance. Otherwise, it will not be easy to maintain consistency in every match of the World Cup. I think Australia will start the series with a win against South Africa today.
The Match between south Africa and Australia has started. Australia win the toss and decided bowling Australia did very well to decide the bowling as night fielders can have difficulty fielding. This match is very important for both team so both will try their best to win the match but Australia has more chance to win. And if we look at the previous matches of south Africa, they did not perform well in any of the matches . Australia is A very strong team and David Warner and Cameron Green are back in the team to make their team even stronger.I am very interested in today's South Africa vs Australia ODI match.

Bangladesh lost by a big margin against Pakistan in Lahore yesterday. The wicket of the match in which Bangladesh was bowled out for 193 runs yesterday was a batting-supporting wicket, that is, a batsman can comfortably bat on such a wicket, but Bangladesh could not score good runs despite having such a beautiful batting-supporting wicket. Bangladesh has played three matches in the Asia Cup so far in which Bangladesh has lost both matches. The second match of Bangladesh's Super Four is against Sri Lanka, whereas Bangladesh has already lost the first match against Sri Lanka in the group stage. The match against Sri Lanka will be held in Sri Lanka so Sri Lanka will get extra support from the fans. To survive in this Asia Cup mission, Bangladesh must win tomorrow's match. If Bangladesh can win tomorrow's match, then there will be a chance to qualify for the next round.
Now a days,the Pakistan bowling was good compared to the other team in the Asia Cup.The bowling of Pakistan against the india also good,only the Hadrik and Ishan had take responsibility in the match and increase the run to 260 runs.If they not take the responsibility in the game,the Indian team will go away from the league.The rain also favour the team India and leads to the draw of the match.Now India qualify by beating the Nepal,hopefully the team Pakistan and team India going to final of this league.

Otherwise, it will not be easy to maintain consistency in every match of the World Cup. I think Australia will start the series with a win against South Africa today.
This series is very important to both teams(Not just Australia) to be frank. Australia is on a high these days in literally every single format which is why they are most probably the favorites to win the World Cup this year.South Africa are the underdogs in this series and the World Cup basically.
Australia won the toss and decided to field. And I think it is the right decision for them. Because the Australian team fielded first in the last two T20 matches. And Australia got a very easy win in match two. In the second match, South Africa set a target of 165 runs. And the Australian team reached the target of victory in just 14.5 overs. South Africa set a huge target of 191 runs in the last match. And in this match, Australia reached the target of victory in just 17.5 overs. And so in today's match if South Africa can stop the team between 250-260 then Australia will win today's match very easily. Australia's batsmen are in good rhythm now.

Netherlands has announced the squad for ODI World Cup, which will start next month. Remember that the ICC tried their best not to allow any of the associate sides in the tournament, and the Dutch managed to qualify despite all these. IMO, Scotland deserved the spot more than Netherlands, but to send a message to the ICC any associate representation next month would be enough. They have gone for a mix of youth and experienced players. County players including Paul van Meekeren and Roelof van der Merwe return to the squad, while younger players such as Bas de Leede and Aryan Dutt have been retained. Sybrand Engelbrecht is the big surprise.

you are right, This ODI series is very important for both the teams. But I don't mention South Africa because their performance is quite poor right now. I don't think this team has the potential to win the World Cup. Even the T 20 series has evidence of this. The South African team could not win even one of the three matches. Australia will try their best to win the ODI series. And this will be the warm up series for them. However, the series is going to take place shortly. Whether the match will be competitive cannot be said for sure. Because South African batsmen are not in good form.

Bangladesh is getting demolished by Pakistan at the moment. Their score was way too low to begin with thanks to bad performances by most batsmen while their bowlers aren't able to do much.
Imam and Rizwan scored half the runs themselves. Very bad performance by the Bongs in literally every department. Predictable encounter!
Bangladesh needed more experienced batsman to face such strong bowling lineup of Pakistan. The youngsters played with fear and got out without any good contribution to the scoreboard. Shakib and Mushfiqur partnership had created some hope for Bangladesh, but they couldn't give a big target. The betting odds was only 1.02× for Pakistan to win the match after the first innings. Sri Lanka is favourite in the next match, but I think Bangladesh will make a comeback in it.Imam and Rizwan scored half the runs themselves. Very bad performance by the Bongs in literally every department. Predictable encounter!

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.
