The way Zimbabwe started their innings I thought Zimbabwe could score 200 runs. But they batted well enough. 249 runs were collected by the players of Zimbabwe. Even then they did not win. Zimbabwe would have won this match if the bowlers of Zimbabwe bowled in a controlled manner. Teja Nidamanuru batted brilliantly today. He scored 110 runs off just 96 balls. And because of his extraordinary innings, the Netherlands team was able to win.
Zimbabwe played well towards the end otherwise such a big score would not have been possible in their favor. But whatever their collection was, if they could have kept the Dutch batsmen under pressure from the start, it would have been difficult for them to make this run. Although they were taken 7 wickets. But I think Zimbabwe will definitely do well in the next matches. Because the top players could not perform well in today's match.

The Netherlands were simply able to win the game because of the last two partnerships that they formed. Otherwise, the Netherlands would have been doomed. As far as the century from Teja is concerned, it was a great one. And of course, the innings from Van Meekran were the nail in the coffin for Zimbabwe. I think after Zimbabwe got six wickets, they actually took it easy. As a result, they certainly underestimated their opponent. This is the reason why they lost this match.

I must say, chasing down a target of 260 runs just under 30 overs is truly impressive. No team has ever managed to achieve such quick chase before. South Africa put on an absolutely dominating performance in the final ODI and managed to level the three-match ODI series by 1-1. But, credit for this remarkable victory must go to Heinrich Klaasen, his outstanding knock really stood out. The South African wicketkeeper put on an absolutely stunning display through batting, also unbeaten on 119 off just 61 balls. Thanks to his brilliant performance, securing a well-deserved win.
South Africa win all credit goes to Heinrich Klaseen he played an exceptional innings of 119 runs in 61 balls with strike rate of 195. This is outstanding performance by him and congratulations to South Africa fir winning this one .
West Indies tried their best to win this match but Klaseen dominated in the game .

1st match of the ODI series between Zimbabwe and Netherlands has started today. Netherlands cricket team won the toss and decided to field first. In the first innings of the game Zimbabwe cricket team batted and collected 249 runs for the loss of all wickets. With no wickets in hand, the Zimbabwe cricket team had to end the game in 47.3 overs. If the Zimbabwean cricket team could have played the full 50 overs, they could have scored some more runs. 249 runs is a mediocre score in an ODI match. Winning a match with this mediocre score is very risky. After that I think Zimbabwe cricket team managed to score well. Now in the second innings game, if Zimbabwe cricket team can perform well in bowling. Then good things can be expected for the Zimbabwe cricket team
I think the runs that Zimbabwe batted first were the right runs for them to win. However, Zimbabwe has started to perform well in bowling. Now Netherlands has come to bat. Netherlands has started to perform poorly in batting. So far.  Netherlands Shakti Shali lost 5 wickets. Looks like easy match made very difficult today by Netherlands. Scored 86 runs in 26 overs. If Netherlands bats like this then Netherlands can't win today. Zimbabwe started bowling very well. Richard Ngarava 5  Takes 2 wickets with 15 runs in overs. Wellington Masakadza takes 2 wickets with 19 runs in 7 overs. Netherlands are under a lot of pressure now.
Zimbabwe bat first and score what you think is a good total, and now the Netherlands are struggling in their batting innings. Note that Zimbabwe's bowling has been strong, with Richard Ngarawa and Wellington Masakadza both picking up wickets and putting pressure on the Netherlands. Based on the current state of the match, it looks like Holland will not win unless their batting improves significantly.

Bangladesh has announced a new squad for the third ODI match against Ireland where Afif Hossain Dhruv and young pacer Shariful Islam have been left out of the squad. Since everyone in the playing XI is doing well, BCB may not want to keep any options. So they are excluded from the squared.  Asif Hossain is expected to remain in the T20 squad even though he has been dropped from regular ODI cricket.

The third match of ODI series is West Indies Cricket Team vs South Africa Cricket Team. Today's match is a very important match for both the teams. It is expected that both the teams will fight hard in today's match. Because the team that wins today's match will win the series. The West Indies cricket team is batting in the first innings. The West Indies cricket team has so far collected 193 runs in 35.5 overs with the loss of 6 wickets. I think it is very important for the West Indies cricket team to keep wickets to finish the 50 over game. West Indies cricket team has four more wickets remaining. If the West Indies cricket team can complete the game in 50 overs then South Africa will be able to give a big target to the cricket team.
West Indies scored 221 runs in 43 overs which is a comparatively good score and they have 7 more overs to play.  But South Africa is a much better team than West Indies, still South Africa has a lot of chances to win, West Indies can get more runs in the remaining 7 overs, maybe they can cross 250 runs. However, it is expected that South Africa will cross it if they get the target less than 300 runs. So South Africa need to bring a better performance in their game and try to collect good runs in the remaining seven overs.  On the other hand, since West Indies have already lost 7 wickets, they will also have to keep an eye on their wickets to complete the full 50 overs. So this game of West Indies with South Africa has been a very challenging match. If West Indies want to win this match, they will have to focus well on bowling and always try to take the wickets of South Africa.  If South Africa get a chance to play the full 50 again, I think they will be able to meet the target set by the West Indies.
Yes it is true and believable that South Africa is a much better team than West Indies.  But in today's ODI match in South Africa, they have already lost four wickets despite collecting good runs in every overs.  And they need 162 runs in 35 more overs.  But it is doubtful whether they can hold their wicket till now. Yes South Africa have more chances to win this match but if West Indies can bowl well and take South Africa wickets as they have already lost four wickets.  Then the chances of West Indies winning will be high also. Now let's see what happens at the end of the game

West Indies have given a target of only 261 runs. This run was not enough to win on such a pitch. Heinrich Klaasen is batting brilliantly. He is unbeaten on 105 off just 58 balls. South Africa collected 250 runs in 29 overs. They need just 11 more runs to win. If the target was more than 300, it would have been difficult for South Africa to win this match. West Indies scored 335 runs in the previous match. I thought they would be able to collect more than 300 in this match too. The performance of their batsmen is very erratic.

West Indies managed to give a good target and now they are really good with their balling side too , they have already taken 5 wickets on 142 runs so apparently South Africa is in tough position right now .
If West Indies keep on taking wickets like this they can win this match easily otherwise South Africa has plenty of overs to chase run.

WI is already leading the series and with today's match if they win they will win the series. At the moment they have scored 221 for 8 wickets. I am sure it would not be easy for them to give SA a target of more than 250 runs. Anything less than 250 in ODI is an easy to chase target. In that sense, this match would be easily won by the SA side unless WI bowlers are able to defend a low target.

South Africa vs West Indies is the match between these two teams that I am enjoying now. In this game, if West Indies batting can hold their wickets now then they still have a big chance to score good runs. If West Indies can score 300 runs today then West Indies  Today's match will have a big chance to win. And if West Indies can make 270 runs then we will see a tough fight between the two teams. West Indies batsman Brandon King was dismissed for 72 runs off 72 balls. If Brandon King could have lasted a few more overs.  Could have completed his 100 runs but could not match 100 runs as he got out. The rest of the West Indies batsmen did not score much today.

Zimbabwe scored 177 runs for the loss of 8 wickets. Masakadza and Madande are batting well. But unfortunately, Masakadza ran out and returned to the dressing room. Madande is still unbeaten with 47 runs. It seems that the Zimbabwean team will be able to collect as much as 220. And I would say if Zimbabwe can collect more than 220 then they will win because Netherlands' batting line-up is not very strong. Their entire performance depends on 2/3 batsmen. In this match, Zimbabwe now seems to have more chances to win.

With each passing over, this match looks like a nightmare for the Dutch. Zimbabwe are at 218/8, with 6 overs remaining. Remember that at one point they were at 98/7, and then at 168/8. The Dutch bowlers have completely failed to take the wickets of Zimbabwean tail end batsmen. If they get to 250 or so, then the match is all over for Netherlands. BTW, I don't understand the strategy from the Dutch captain. He is continuing with part-timers like Colin Ackermann, when he has enough overs from Fred Klaassen, Paul van Meekeren and Vikramjit Singh.

Ireland took the bowling decision in the toss. But the performance of their bowlers was not good. They bowled very badly. Bangladesh collected 108 runs in the last 10 overs. Towhid Hridoy and Mushfiqur Rahim batted brilliantly. This is why they were able to give such a huge target. Bangladesh's collection was only 102 runs in the first 20 overs. Even then it was unimaginable that they would give such a big target. But unfortunately for Bangladesh, the match was abandoned due to rain. Bangladesh would have won this match if the weather was good.

Mushfiqur Rahim century went in vain as rain come down to rescue Ireland. Bangladesh performing too good at there home soil. 349 was a massive target and Ireland would be in trouble if they have to chase it down. Anyways Ireland will be happy at the moment since there is no result of this match. Still one more ODI to go and Bangladesh is favorite for the upcoming game.

Mushfiqur Rahim scored a century but unfortunately the match was affected by rain and Ireland could not complete their innings. As a result the match ended without any result. Bangladesh have been performing well on their home soil and it would have been difficult for Ireland to chase down their target of 349 runs. However due to bad weather the match was abandoned and Ireland must have been relieved to escape unscathed. The two teams still have one more ODI to play and Bangladesh are considered favorites to win the upcoming match. It will be interesting to see how both the teams perform and whether the weather conditions allow for a full match.

Netherlands won the toss and elected to bowl. And they are bowling very well. Zimbabwe lost 5 wickets in 15 overs. They managed to collect only 81 runs. But Sikendar Raja is still at the crease. He is Zimbabwe's most experienced batsman. With him at the crease, Zimbabwe can rack up big scores. If Zimbabwe can score 200 runs, the match will be very competitive.
West Indies are now batting against South Africa. The performance of their batsmen in the second match was excellent. So they were able to win. Hopefully West Indies will be able to deliver a big score target today.
Wellington Masakadza and Clive Madande are on a rescue mission after Zimbabwe lost 7 wickets on just 98 runs in 21 overs. They both have taken the score to 167 and still 13 more over left. Netherlands have performed well with bowl, almost all there bowlers have got wickets. Netherlands must try to get rid of both these batsmen as quickly as possible. If Zimbabwe give target of 225 or above then it will be difficult for inexperience Netherlands side to win the game.

Zimbabwe scored 177 runs for the loss of 8 wickets. Masakadza and Madande are batting well. But unfortunately, Masakadza ran out and returned to the dressing room.

Zimbabwe is all set for a total of around 250-300. There was a 70 run partnership between Clive Madande and Wellington Masakadza which was broken just now. From 98/7, they reached a score of 168/8. They still have two wickets remaining, and it should not be a daunting task to score at 6 runs per over from now. Dutch bowlers initially looked good, especially the pacers (Fred Klaassen and Paul van Meekeren). But the 8th wicket partnership between Madande and Masakadza took the match away from them.
