Zimbabwe performed well at their venue. Zimbabwe was the favorite to me throughout the tournament. But after losing their first match, I was a bit hesitant. But they performed well in the next two matches. Especially the last match of the series was really appreciable for them. Every player had a good partnership Wessly Madhevere collected 49, Craig Ervine 44, Gary Ballance 64 and Sean Williams 43 all are relatively big scores and they got an easy win.
The first two matches were really competitive and Netherlands was chasing those matches where they won the first match and they came close to victory in the second match and Zimbabwe somehow managed to win that match and the third match was one sided as Netherlands were not able to put a competitive score on board and Zimbabwe chased them without much struggle.
Zimbabwe proved themselves in last two ODIs they played really good and specially in last one their batsman performed exceptionally good.
In second ODI they won by just 1 run which is total luck for them but today they nailed it thoroughly.
It seems that the Zimbabwean players are back to their former form.  Zimbabwe is starting to perform better as the days go by. From the bowling to the batting line, Zimbabwe has become much stronger now.  So I think if Zimbabwe can keep playing like this they will go a long way. But some of Zimbabwe's mistakes earlier went back to their own mistakes. Now they are able to correct their own mistakes which is why Zimbabwe started performing so well.

This is the terrible performance of the Sri Lanka Cricket teams. Only three batters were able to score double-figure runs. Sri Lankan Captain Dasun Shanaka scored a golden duck, while Kushal Medis scored zero runs. Henry Shipley from the New Zealand side took five wickets in seven overs only. Daryl Mitchell and Blair Tickner both took two wickets each. Overall an excellent performance from New Zealand bowlers.

Actually, Sri Lanka played well while they were bowling. It was a good performance from them to get the New Zealand batting team all out before the 50 overs. But after that when they came into chasing, they had an absolutely horrible time. Now I'm just going to say the best score by a Sri Lankan player in this match, it is 18. And there are four extra runs in the 76 that Sri Lanka was able to score. Now Sri Lanka will have to win the next one.

The Netherlands team set a target of 232 runs in the third match of the series between the Netherlands vs Zimbabwe. Considering the pitch it doesn't collect enough to win. The series is now tied at 1-1. Looks like Zimbabwe will win today. And Zimbabwe is going to win the series too.

I agree with you. Zimbabwe looks more likely to win today's match. After 28 overs, Zimbabwe collected 150 runs. And they lost just two wickets. The two Zimbabwean openers started their innings brilliantly. And Ballance and Williams are batting. They need just 82 runs to win. Collecting 82 runs in 22 overs will not be a difficult task for Zimbabwe. The Zimbabwe team is going to win the series against the Netherlands.
Zimbabwe batting was outstanding today they chased a big target so gracefully and easily ,all of their batsman scored good runs  most of them scored half centuries. 
Netherlands batting was good but their balling wasnot up to the mark to beat Zimbabwe .
The target of 231 runs set by the Netherlands as an ODI match was too short to play the full 50 overs. And Zimbabwe took advantage of it.  And won the match easily by crossing that target in just 41 overs And Zimbabwe won by 7 wickets. Zimbabwe is not a much better team than Netherlands.  However, Netherlands' game was not very good today, they had a very poor performance.  And there is no obligation that a team can always play well so it has to be accepted that the Netherlands were unlucky today so they lost the match.

Zimbabwe also won the 2nd ODI match due to their great luck as they won the 2nd match by 1 run. Apart from Zimbabwe playing well, their luck is working a lot.  So they won the 2nd and 3rd matches with Netherlands.  Madhevere collected 49, Craig Ervine 44, Gary Ballance 64 and Sean Williams 43 all are relatively big scores but this score is not very good considering the number of overs they have played. And they managed just 1 for 6 in the entire game. Even if they won the match I would say they need to improve their game more

1st ODI Match Sri Lanka Cricket Team vs New Zealand Cricket Team.  In today's match, the New Zealand cricket team batted in the first innings and set a target of 275 runs to the Sri Lankan cricket team.  The Sri Lankan cricket team went into bat in the second innings and the Sri Lankan cricket team is in a wicket crisis.  Unexpected batting by Sri Lankan cricket team.  Lankan batsmen can't stand straight in front of New Zealand bowlers.  Very weak Sri Lankan cricket team batting.  Sri Lanka have lost 5 wickets and scored only 35 runs in 11 overs so far, looking at the game it is easy to imagine that the Sri Lankan team is going to lose by a huge margin against New Zealand.
In the first ODI of the Sri Lankan team ended with only 76 runs against 274 and they had to accept the defeat by a big margin. Continuous fall of wickets was a major problem for the Sri Lankan team from the start and it continued till the end of the match. It will be very difficult to fight against the New Zealand team with such a performance. However, such a situation is not often seen in Sri Lankan cricket. They may try in the next match but it will be difficult for them to overcome from this situation.

It was a completely unexpected result that Sri Lanka would face such a batting disaster. The pitch was batting-friendly. So no New Zealand batsman could stay at the crease for long. But the performance of almost every New Zealand batsman was quite good. 275 runs was not a big target. If Sri Lanka's top order batted responsibly, they would have been able to collect these runs. But their batting was very bad. Angelo Mathews was able to collect maximum of 18 runs for the team.

The Netherlands team set a target of 232 runs in the third match of the series between the Netherlands vs Zimbabwe. Considering the pitch it doesn't collect enough to win. The series is now tied at 1-1. Looks like Zimbabwe will win today. And Zimbabwe is going to win the series too.

Sri Lanka cricket team defeated by New Zealand cricket team by 198 runs.  It is truly unbelievable that the Sri Lankan team will be defeated by such a margin.  This is the biggest defeat for the Sri Lankan cricket team.  The Sri Lankan cricket team is under criticism after being defeated by such a margin.  There are still two more matches left in the ODI series.  Hopefully the Sri Lankan cricket team will be able to return to form in the next matches.  For the upcoming matches, the Sri Lankan cricket team must be fully prepared.  New Zealand cricket team performed very well in this match.  All in all, the New Zealand cricket team deserved to win this match

Although the Sri Lankan cricket team is currently facing a tough situation in their first ODI against New Zealand there are reasons to be positive about their performance. It is important to remember that cricket is a game of uncertainty and the outcome can change at any time. They have lost some early wickets there is still plenty of time left in the match for the Sri Lankan batsmen to make a comeback and turn the game around. They have a talented group of players who are capable of scoring big runs and creating partnerships. It is important to stay optimistic and support the Sri Lankan team.

Terrible performance by Sri Lanka, was expecting it to be a fair encounter and eventually loosing the match as the target is not that huge but they failed to score 100 runs.

Netherlands and Zimbabwe are playing and hopefully it will be another thriller and the winner takes the series, for the first time Netherlands are batting first and got to a great start.

Sri Lanka, West Indies, Bangladesh.... these are some of the dying teams in international cricket. With each passing year, the gap between them and the rest of the test playing nations get wider and wider. South Africa was also moving in that direction, but Brexit and the termination of Kolpak system which resulted from that made their lives easier. Today was a black day for Sri Lanka. They lost by close to 200 runs. Even associate nations such as Scotland and Namibia perform better than this when they face against New Zealand.

New Zealand vs Sri Lanka I was a bit disappointed to see the match between the two teams. I didn't think that Sri Lanka would be all out for just 76 runs in this match. I thought in this match that Sri Lanka might be all out after scoring 200 runs. But New Zealand said.  Henry Shipley finished the game in a very short time. Sri Lanka team strength Shali took 5 wickets alone. Sri Lanka team was under so much pressure that they could not score 100 runs. New Zealand batted first and scored many runs. New Zealand batsmen and  Well played by everyone.
This is some unexpected disappointing performance by sirlanka they got all out on 76 , Newzealand ballers definitely did a great job Henry shippley took 5 wickets and clear made his team win this easily .
Newzealand have a good target but their balling side dominated today .

This was really an easy win for the New Zealand team. Even they would not have thought that they could beat them so easily. None of the batsmen was able to play the New Zealand bowlers.

Henry Shipley took 5 wickets for 31 runs and was declared the man of the match. The 2nd match between the two teams will be played at Christchurch on March 28. Srilanka needs to improve themselves a lot in order to show a better performance against NewZealand.

New Zealand managed to collect 274 runs. They lost all the wickets. Finn Allen scored 51 runs for the team. The performance of the Sri Lankan bowlers was quite good. Chamika Karunaratne in particular gave a great performance. He managed to pick up four wickets. He gave 43 runs in 9 overs.
I don't think the pitch is conducive to batting. The bowlers were getting enough advantage on this pitch. So if the bowlers of New Zealand are able to bowl controlled then it will be easy for New Zealand to win this match. Moreover, the performance of Sri Lankan batsmen is not regular.

If the performance of Sri Lankan team was good so here is the New Zealand. As I said the New Zealand team is looking strong. Now Sri Lankan team is near to match loss. They made only 56 runs in 16 overs at the Run Rate of 3.5.
And surprisingly lost 7 wickets. So match is giving full favor to New Zealand team. And soon we will see that the New Zealand has won the match. Smiley
Finally Sri Lanka have ended the innings at 79 runs. Sri Lanka should've chosen to bat first after winning the toss, because they could play without pressure. While chasing target there'll be more pressure. Henry Shipley bowled well with the five wicket haul. This was close to his best bowling figure. His best in ODI 5/30 and today he had taken 5/31. New Zealand is strong in bowling as well as batting. Runs came from top order to the middle order players that made New Zealand team reach 274 runs.
