Sad to see sky performing like crap these days, but it's just a bad phase which will pass. Fans of Samson are trying to take advantage of this opportunity, but it's truly pointless since Sky is an incredible talent in the ODI and T-20 formats.

The upcoming IPL season could help him recover his form which would help in the upcoming ODI World Cup.

SKY is very good in T20I, but he doesn't perform well in other formats. Samson is not good in any of the formats. Anyway, IPL is only a few days away and this year's tournament is a very big opportunity for both these players to get attention from national team selectors. No matter how much we distinguish T20 from ODI, selection will always be done (for all the formats) on the basis of their performance in IPL. And both the players will come face-to-face at least twice in this season, when Mumbai Indians clash against Rajasthan Royals.

Despite the economic challenges facing Zimbabwe the International Cricket Council (ICC) distributes funds to its member countries based on various factors including performance development initiatives and governance. While the Dutch economy may be more stable and potentially more government funding for the sport, economic stability is not the only determining factor in the growth and development of cricket. Cricket is a complex game and team performance can fluctuate due to various reasons.It is important to acknowledge Zimbabwe's rich history in cricket and the many talented players they have produced. Ultimately the future of cricket in any country depends on various factors including economic stability governance talent development and on field performance. It is important to support all cricket playing countries and work for the growth and development of the game globally.

ICC funding alone can't be enough to promote cricket in the country, government support is must and if there is no supprt from government side then you have problem promoting cricket in the country. Zimbabwe was one of great test teams when players like Grant flower and Andy flower were part of team in late 90s but since then it's complete fall. Recently Zimbabwe participated in T20 World Cup and it gave hope that Zimbabwe may bounce back but its proving to be false once again after seeing there performance in bilateral series.

I also feel that India and Pakistan will play the finals. I also had the same notion in the last Asia cup. The problem is that every Indian and Pakistani fan believes that these two countries will reach the finals except the players.

Whichever country becomes the host would get a good chunk of revenue. Considering the present economic condition of Srilanka I think it would be great for them to host those matches.

Every time expectations are high for the final between these two arch rival sides but every time it never came true as we have last time in t20i while Sri Lanka knocked out India from final and then beats Pakistan for the title, so we can expect many surprises again in this event because right now all Asian teams are doing good even Afghanistan can do upset as we have last time against few big teams, so now I have no expectations for this final because quality cricket is also doing good.

As we are heading for this Asia Cup I want we have these matches in England which could be good for the both teams and also for the fans because this could be better and good place to play cricket in this time and surely ECB and ACC will also have good amount because if we have matches here then surely all stadiums will be packed as we have in Australia.

This is a big achievement for Bangladesh. Perhaps this is the first time the Bangladesh team has won by 10 wickets. Ireland mustered only 101 runs. And another important thing is that the pace bowlers of Bangladesh picked up 10 wickets in this match. ~~

It was a remarkable victory for Bangladesh. They have made their new records in this ODI series. Bangladesh scored their highest ODI total in the first and second ODI, then they won the 3rd match by 10 wickets. The condition of the pitch was helping fast bowlers, and Bangladeshi fast bowlers have done their job perfectly. The youngster Hasan Mahmud took 5 wickets today. I wouldn't be surprised if Hasan Mahmud get the opportunity to play in the upcoming world cup instead of Mustafizur Rahman.

Bangladesh team has created one record after another. It was unimaginable that this team would suddenly make such phenomenal progress. Bangladesh has found several talented players for their squad. And when these players are in form, they are capable of defeating any big team. It was almost impossible to win all the matches in the series against a T20 specialist team like England. Bangladesh has managed to do this incredible work. If the second match of the series against Ireland was not abandoned, the Bangladesh team would have won every match of the series.

Yes, Bangladesh team performs so well at times that any strong team is not a big obstacle for them. But one thing I have noticed is that as aggressive as they are at home ground, they have a major weakness away from home. If they can perform well out side of their country then they can stay at the top position in any format. But regrettably they often fail to do so. Especially they cannot play on bounce pitches. Because of which they have to lose to the big cricket countries.

Performing against weak teams under helpful conditions may not work everytime. Playing against Australia or England under SENA conditions will be extremely different from what they faced while playing against Ireland. Everytime their spinners are not going to get turning tracks, and the batsmen may be facing world class fast bowlers in pitches having lots of pace and bounce. The ODI world cup is due in a few months, and although the conditions in India are similar to those in Bangladesh, it is going to be a tough challenge for them.

In fact, that's the point, there's nothing to be happy about after securing a victory so impressively against such a weak team. When Bangladesh secures such a victory against the likes of South Africa, Australia, England and India, such a victory should be celebrated.

As expected Sanju Samson has started questioning SKY. Shashi Tharoor has been vocal about Sanju Samson not being part of the Indian 11. After the IPL If his performance is better than SKY then I think he will be of the Indian 11 in the world cup.

~~~~

Elections are due in around 12 months from now, and Shashi Tharoor knows that he can't win without the support from the Christian voters (~25% in his consistency). The reason why he remembers Samson all of a sudden is just because he needs votes from that particular section. Samson was given plenty of chances previously and now the BCCI should consider some of the other promising youngsters to replace SKY (if needed). There is no comparison between SKY and Samson. SKY is miles ahead in terms of consistency and skills.

Just because SKY made some ravishing performance doesn't mean he can't be compared with Sanju Samson. Even before the politicians words there were issues around. The only support he have is the social media community who raise voice against the BCCI. This doesn't have any use. It is a proven fact in Indian cricket that the North players were prioritised against the South. This is well known and admitted politics within India. Now we're discussing about the ODI format of cricket. An average of 66 runs is far better compared to 20 runs and both have debuted in the same Sri Lanka series during the year 2021.

Bangladesh cricket team has been able to perform amazingly in the ODI match series against Ireland. Ireland could not create a good advantage in a single match. But I think there is no point in enjoying the victory against this team of Bangladesh. When they are able to put up such a performance against a big team, that team will get their due.

Bangladesh vs Ireland.
Bangladesh could have secured the series win in the 2nd match. But with the match being abandoned due to rain, that chance was greatly reduced. Despite scoring a record run that day, the Tigers had to be content with sharing the result. Along with that, the expectation of winning the series has also increased a little. Rain created more opportunities but Ireland could not capitalize on them.

In the second ODI series of Bangladesh, they scored the highest run in history that day. But unfortunately they did not win the series as the match was abandoned due to rain. However, in the second ODI match, the batting performance of Bangladesh Tigers was very good.

Quote from: NicNacCoin on March 23, 2023, 08:38:26 AM

Besides securing a 10-wicket winning streak today, the Tigers set a record. This is the first time in their ODI history that Bangladesh cricket team reached the goal of victory without losing any wicket. They completed Ireland's target of 102 runs without losing a wicket in 13.1 overs. Congratulations to Bangladesh cricket team, they will perform better in coming days.

The Tigers' performance in the second ODI match was excellent as they restricted Ireland to 101 for 10 in 24.1 overs. And later, both Tamim Iqbal and Liton Das left the field with victory for Bangladesh batting. It was a huge joy for Bangladesh with a huge win by 102 runs for no wicket. And it was the biggest win in the history of Bangladesh with a huge victory played in 13.1 overs. Bangladesh really performs well in every match in its own country's ground.

Netherlands were firmly cruising to victory and at one point they were at 166/1 after 33 overs. At this point they needed 105 runs to win, from 17 overs (at around 6 runs per over). They had 9 wickets in hand and there for had a win probability of more than 90%. But the moment when Tom Cooper got run out, fortunes were reversed. He was the more aggressive batsmen and both Max O'Dowd and Colin Ackermann were unable to keep up with the required rate. After Cooper got out, Netherlands batsmen were scoring at the rate of around 2-runs per over and they lost the match right there.

Some defeats are never accepted. As the Netherlands lost against Zimbabwe yesterday. A one run loss is really painful. But the result of the game could not be like this. Because the middle order to lower order batsmen were not able to sustain the game in the way that the Dutch first row batsmen were starting. Tom Cooper's run out knocked the Netherlands out of the match. But before he was out, the Netherlands had a very good score. Had the middle-order batsmen provided a bit of support after his dismissal, the match would have gone in the Netherlands' favour.

Zimbabwe came back strongly into the game when two consecutive Dutch batsmen made their way to the pavilion for golden ducks. Congratulations Zimbabwe.

If Netherlands players MaxODowd and TomCooper could have scored centuries, Zimbabwe's chances of victory here would have been slim. Netherland's fortunes turned out to be their biggest defeat as Max failed to score a century for just 19 runs. And Netherlands bowling needs to be more experienced to attack the opposition players with fast balls. And the Netherlands suffered the biggest loss with two wickets dismissed which left their match brutally in a run deficit and two wickets up. Had the Netherlands been careful with the wickets, they would have had a chance to win. Meanwhile, Zimbabwe played to the target despite not having a wicket in hand which ensured their win.

This was an unexpected result for me. I thought the Netherlands would win. Because the performance of the top-order players was outstanding. The first 5 batsmen of the Netherlands' top order played very well. But no other batsman was able to perform well. The Netherlands lost three wickets for 197 runs. They failed to collect only 73 runs. However, the performance of Zimbabwe's bowlers in S10 overs was good. Sikandar Raza and Wessly Madhevera took 3 wickets each. I would say that the Zimbabwean team was able to win this match because of the controlled bowling of those two bowlers.

Well, jokes apart. Yeah in such a case venue will be neutral as the Indian team won't visit Pakistan. True, it's not a perfect situation for Pakistan but at least there is something for them too and both parties can claim some sort of victory and do chest thumping. I'd like it if they opt for SL as a neutral venue.

Finally, There is some consensus building up for the 2023 ODI Asia cup.

India is still not visiting Pakistan but from start, it was a well known fact to every party. The good news for Pakistan is that they will host the Asia cup in their own backyard and India will play their matches in a neutral venue. Maybe SL, UAE, Oman or England.

https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/2023-asia-cup-likely-in-pakistan-and-one-other-overseas-venue-for-ind-vs-pak-1365046

Muscat in Oman is likely to host matches involving India, as that city is slightly colder compared to the UAE locations during summer. And in case India progresses to the semi-finals or finals, will these matches be still played in neutral venues? Anyway, this was the most logical solution to the issue and make sure that ACC will not suffer any losses. PCB may lose out on considerable revenues in the form of gate collection and sponsorship, but even for them it is much preferable when compared to the scenario where the tournament is cancelled altogether.

Thats really big reach from Netherlands, because it looked like an easy win for Zimbabwe. In the final over scenario changed completely and scoring 17 runs in the last over is really great. The third run was missed and ended as a wicket. If not the scores could've got levelled. Anyhow this is deserving win for Zimbabwe to make the third ODI even more interesting as it decides the series winner.

I thought Netherlands deserved to win as they came from behind in the first ODI and literally snatched the win from Zimbabwe by the tail end which was a refreshing tale because it is rare now a days considering top teams like India failed to win yesterday when they were on a good position to win the match majority of the time and Netherlands which is literally unknown with players i have not heard making statements like these is great for Cricket.
