Srilanka still in the game but they need wickets to win this game. So far it's dry performance from Srilanka bowlers as they have picked only 2 wickets. The game can turn into SL favor if they can pick wickets in quick interval.

Expected Sri Lanka to perform better as Afghanistan is touring and yet they are able to perform better restricting Sri Lanka to 268 runs with Charith Asalanka playing the sole innings of 91 runs and the rest of the players did not contribute much and their bowlers are not able to pick wickets and put pressure on Afghanistan batsman and now they are cruising to victory as they only need 39 runs to win.

Afghanistan get a comfortable victory against Sri Lanka in the first ODI match, even without their star player Rashid Khan. Afghan team now holds a 1-0 lead in the three-match ODI series. It was wonderful to witness the team's excellent teamwork and performance on the field, resulting in their convincing win. Ibrahim Zadran, fearless batting approach was truly delightful to watch. He came incredibly close to scoring his fourth ODI ton, falling just two runs short.

I think Afghanistan secured a great win without Rashid Khan. But if Rashid Khan is back in the team then surely Afghanistan will be in strong form which will be very scary for Sri Lanka, because Rashid Khan is the best in terms of bowling. In this regard, Sri Lanka should perform better as their wickets have fallen the most and the run rate is very low. I usually see Sri Lanka in ODI matches with a high number of wickets falling and Sri Lanka's performance against Bangladesh in the previous season was very poor. But this time Sri Lanka lost the first match with Afghanistan, I think Sri Lanka's weakness is a lot. Sri Lanka must perform well in the next match.

For the Afghanistan vs Sri Lanka match, both the sides have roughly equal chances of a win. Afghanistan need another 207 runs to win from 38 overs, with 9 wickets in hand. Rahmanullah Gurbaz got out to Lahiru Kumara earlier.

Afghanistan need 97 more runs in 19 overs with 8 wikcets in hands, this very much tells the fate of this match. To me Afghanistan will win this match quite easily. Ibrahim Zadran just got out after scoring 98 runs in 98 balls. Srilanka still in the game but they need wickets to win this game. So far it's dry performance from Srilanka bowlers as they have picked only 2 wickets. The game can turn into SL favor if they can pick wickets in quick interval.

What a win for Afghanistan. Srilanka scored a decent 268 runs but they were not able to defend it. In the very first match at Hambantota, Srilanka, the host team lost the match. Shocked

Almost every batsman from Afghanistan contributed or this win. Ibrahim Zadran scored 98 runs and Rahmat Shah scored 55 runs, and this partnership between the two gave Afghanistan a perfect platform to win this chase.

The next match between the two teams will be played on Sunday and the host team has to gather up all the confidence to compete strongly else the series could go in the favor of the Afghanistan team.

Namibia got off to a bad start against Karnataka in the first 50-over match at Windhoek. At one point, they were at 107/6, but then a 7th wicket partnership between Jan Frylinck and Pikky Ya France somewhat stabilized the innings. Now they are at 151/7 after 34 overs. Namibia has depth in batting and it should be possible for them to post a decent total. For Karnataka, Vidwath Kaverappa was exceptional, with figures of 5-1-9-2. But the IPL sensation Vijaykumar Vyshak has been expensive so far, and he conceded 46 runs form 7 overs till now. Rishi Bopanna has taken the 7th wicket and he has two wickets to his name.

For the Afghanistan vs Sri Lanka match, both the sides have roughly equal chances of a win. Afghanistan need another 207 runs to win from 38 overs, with 9 wickets in hand. Rahmanullah Gurbaz got out to Lahiru Kumara earlier.

Ibrahim zadran and Rahmat shah made this match for their team although both of them are out still they can win this match easily now .
Sirlanka balling side was weak they couldn't stop Afghanistan from scoring runs.

Today's 1st ODI match of Afghanistan tour of Sri Lanka team has already started.Afghanistan won the toss and decided to bowl.Sri Lanka now came out to bat.137 runs in 30 overs.So far Sri Lanka has lost 4 strong wickets.Looking at the game It seems that batsmen of Sri Lanka team are under a lot of pressure. Fazalhaq Farooqi of Afghanistan team took 2 wickets with 22 runs in 5 overs. It seems that Sri Lanka will not be able to score more than 250 runs today.

Sirlanka managed to give a decent target to Afghanistan which they'll have difficulty chasing .
Till now Afghanistan is doing good with bat their runtate is good too and 9 wickets intact.
122 in 20 overs is a good start now if they'll maintain this partnership between Ibrahim zadran and Rahmat shah they can keep the game in their side .

Afghanistan has lost momentum against Sri Lanka in the first ODI. After reducing the Lankans to 84/4, the Afghan bowlers allowed Dhananjaya de Silva and Charith Asalanka to build a partnership for the 5th wicket. Now Sri Lanka looks set for a total of around 260-280, unless the Afghans can pick up a couple of wickets in quick succession.

Meanwhile Karnataka has won the toss against Namibia and elected to field first. Karnataka is being captained by Ravikumar Samarth, while Namibia is being led by Gerhard Erasmus. This series consists of 5 ODI matches, and all of them will be played at the Wanderers Cricket Ground in Windhoek. Apart from Samarth, the Karnataka squad contains promising players like Vidwath Kaverappa and Manoj Bhandage.

It's 99 runs partnership between Charith Asalanka and de Silva that has helped SL in posing a target of 268 runs. Apart from these 2 batsmen there is not much contribution from rest of batting lineup. Afghanistan have started the run chase and after 2 overs Afghanistan are 8 without any loss. The target is not very huge if Afghanistan played with caution then they can easily chase it.

BCCI could compensate the broadcasters with a couple of bilateral series, this should cover their loss if there are any.

The problem will come when it's Broadcaster vs ICC.

In case of Asia Cup, it is going to be Broadcasters vs ACC. And I don't know the details, because unlike the ICC, ACC never publishes the bid details on media rights. In case Pakistan pulls out of the ODI World Cup later this year, then it will impact the ICC. Already there is an understanding that Star Sports (and Zee also) paid a lot more for the media rights than the initial estimates (2024-27 cycle). If there is a possibility of Pakistan pulling out of the subsequent tournaments, then they may ask the ICC to bring down the auction rate (2026 T20I World Cup is supposed to be hosted by India, while Pakistan is hosting the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy).

Star's recent deal of the Asia Cup is about to be over this year (2016-23) and i believe the current media rights deal won't be too expensive, that's why i said that BCCI could compensate them with a couple of series. BCCI is the largest partner anyway so it comes down to them.

ICC will start shitting bricks if it happens, i think BCCI will sit back and enjoy the drama.

Sri Lanka were all out for 268 runs in 50 overs. Sri Lanka were under a lot of pressure after losing wickets in the beginning. Charith Asalanka played brilliantly and was dismissed for 91 runs, missing the century by a few runs. Dhananjaya De Silva was dismissed for 51 runs. Apart from the two of them, no one else could score a half century. Afghanistan has done great bowling, Afghanistan has a chance to win today.

Afghanistan has started very strongly and now Sri Lanka is struggling at 95/4 after 21 overs. Four of their top order batsmen are back in the pavilion, including Angelo Mathews, Kusal Mendis, Dimuth Karunaratne and Pathum Nissanka. Fazalhaq Farooqi has taken 2 wickets till now and the remaining wickets were picked up by Mujeeb Ur Rahman and Fareed Ahmad. Sri Lanka needs to be cautious now. The pitch at Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium is quite supportive for batsmen and any total less than 250-260 would be easy target for the Afghans.

The pitch is not bowling-friendly. However, the performance of Sri Lanka's top order left me very disappointed. Pathum Nissanka scored 38 runs. Besides, no other batsman can play well in the top order. Sri Lanka scored 30 runs from the partnership of Asalanga and Dhananjaya. Sri Lanka now collects 114 runs. If Sri Lanka can't collect a big score from this partnership then I think there is no chance of Sri Lanka winning. Given a target of 200-220, Sri Lanka will not win. A target of at least 260-280 runs must be given to win.

Afghanistan vs Sri Lanka Fast ODI match has started and Sri Lanka are batting in the first innings. Afghanistan has decided to opt bowl in the match. Sri Lanka are more likely to win today's match at their home ground they must perform well to win. If Sri Lanka can improve on today's batting performance then surely they will be able to win their first ODI match against Afghanistan. If Sri Lanka can hold on to wickets in today's match, they will have a chance to score a lot of runs. Sri Lanka is more likely to win the match, Afghanistan may be under some pressure if they bowl well in today's match. Sri Lanka is already likely to win most of the matches while Afghanistan's percentage is very low.

Afghanistan won the toss and elected to field. Sri Lanka scored 62 runs with 3 wickets in 15 overs. Dimuth Karunaratne was dismissed for 2 runs off 6 balls, Kusal Mendis was dismissed for 11 runs off 17 balls, Angelo Mathews was dismissed for 12 runs off 21 balls. Sri Lanka's runs are almost OK, but are under pressure to lose 3 crucial wickets. Fazalhaq Farooqi took 2 wickets, Fareed Ahmad Malik took 1 wicket.

This match will be very competitive. The Afghanistan team is strong enough. And Afghanistan's performance is improving day by day. On the other hand, the performance of the Sri Lankan players is completely erratic. There is no batsman in the team who is able to perform consistently and responsibly in every match. And so in this series, I consider the Afghanistan team as the favorite.

At the end of 20 overs, Sri Lanka scored only 85 runs, and they lost 4 important wickets. Dhananjaya De Silva is at the crease. And if he can't bat well then Sri Lanka will not be able to score even 200 runs today.

Sri Lanka is more likely to win against Afghanistan but based on the recent performances the two teams will be almost on equal footing in the recently concluded IPL where the Afghan cricketers have performed brilliantly in batting and bowling. Every player who has performed in the IPL is in the squad against Sri Lanka except Rashid Khan. Rashid Khan's absence may be some comforting news for Sri Lanka. So far 3 overs have been played where Sri Lanka have already lost one wicket. If the wickets fall so quickly in the ODI match, the team is in a lot of batting trouble. I don't want to put any team forward for now because Afghanistan bowling line-up can destroy any batting line-up at any time.

As per the ODI team ranking Afghanistan is right above Srilanka. As per overall performance of the Afghanistan team in ODI they have not played a lot of bilateral matches this year. Therefore the stats shows better than Srilanka.

The biggest benefit for Srilanka is that they are playing on their home ground. The wicket does help the spinners and both team have good spin attack. At the moment Srilanka has already lost it's first wicket within the powerplay. Not a good sign in my opinion.

As this series is being held at Sri Lanka's home ground, Sri Lanka will undoubtedly take the home advantage in this series. In bilateral series, each team usually takes home advantage. If a country hosts a series, then the pitch is made according to the bowlers of that country, as a result of which the host bowlers get a better advantage.
Afghanistan is very strong in terms of spin bowlers and they will have some advantage against Sri Lanka. It seems that Sri Lanka has made a bowling dependent pitch. Because Sri Lanka have collected only 39 runs in 9 overs where they have already lost two wickets.
