Indian bowlers are not very experienced. They don't have players such as Bumrah, Shami and Ishant in the squad. Pace bowling will be handled by Siraj and Prasidh, with help from Deepak Chahar, while spinners for this match are Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel and Deepak Hooda. I would say that India looks more stronger in the batting department when compared to bowling. And it will be interesting to watch the performance of Sanju Samson, who is being given an opportunity despite repeated failures earlier.
India VS Zimbabwe
The Zimbabwe vs India series is going to take place shortly. Zimbabwe played well against Bangladesh in their last series and won the series. But I don't think Zimbabwe will win any match against India. India will win this series very easily.
I thought Virat Kohli would be given a chance in this series. And it will take an effort to bring him back to form, as Zimbabwe's bowling line-up is weak. But the Indian management did not keep Virat Kohli in the squad.
India is not playing it's A team in this bilateral series with Zimbabwe. I am expecting the Indian side to win the series comfortably but I think it will not be an easy task. In the last series with Bangladesh Sikandar Raza played exceptionally well and out of the three matches he score century in two which led his team to win. If this guy plays well against India then the Indian team will face problem. The Zimbabwe vs India series is going to take place shortly.

Zimbabwe's wins in two series against Bangladesh depended solely on Sikandar Raza's performance. But don't forget that Indian bowlers are more experienced than Bangladesh. Indian captain KL Rahul won the toss and decided to field. Zimbabwe must score more than 300 if they want to win. Because India has great batsmen like Shikhar Dhawan, Gill, Deepak Hooda, Ishan Kishan and Samson in the squad.
There is good news for West Indies. They managed to win the ODI match against New Zealand. And with this win, they have 90 points in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League and are now almost guaranteed of a position in top-8. And what this means is that it will be very difficult for both Sri Lanka and South Africa to qualify for the ODI World Cup in 2023. South Africa also forfeited the ODI series against Australia and this puts them in a very difficult position. Sri Lanka has 6 matches remaining and South Africa has 8. Now it will be almost impossible for them to catch up to West Indies.
West Indies win their first ODI against New Zealand after a nine-match losing streak! Fans of WI want to see this. It doesn't matter to them whether they win or lose. Regardless, they are champions. In the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League, they currently have 90 points following this comfortable win. Among the top eight teams, WI is in a comfortable position for a direct entry. Yes, Sri Lanka and South Africa should take into account their point standings and remaining matches or they may find it difficult to qualify.

Bad, really bad performance from New Zealand. West Indies took the best decision of bowling first after winning the toss. New Zealand put on a very low score Which was very easy for West Indies to Chase.
And about the World Cup, I think all of them will be able to qualify for the World Cup 2023 But now it seems like West Indies is going to be ahead. I believe we are talking about direct qualifications for the World Cup. It will be interesting to see West Indies getting qualified and South Africa and/or Sri Lanka have to wait. And South Africa not playing against Australia has made it harder on themselves.

78 says 119 runs to be taken but it is not too difficult for Netherlands team.But they have already lost five wickets, if they had two more wickets and one good wicket they could have won the match more confidently.But it is not very difficult for Netherlands to win the game, if they play with a little focus, they can win this game.If Pakistan can give a good bowling performance then Pakistan will be able to secure victory in today's match.But I feel today's match can be in favor of Netherlands if the batting performance and wickets can hold up.
NED 196/5 (37)
PAK 314/6 (50)
Netherlands needs 119 runs in 78 balls
NED 196/5 (37)
PAK 314/6 (50)

I would like to say that Netherland is not absolutely out of the competition in this match against Pakistan. Even though I really do not believe Netherland will be able to win this match. Because the required rate is more than nine and the Netherlands only have four wickets in hand. But as long as Edwards is in the middle I think Netherland have hope. Lets see what will happen.

West Indies is really passing through bad times. They have not seen any good performance in the last few matches or series. But they won the last T20 match against New Zealand. Their ODI series starts tomorrow. Let's hope they try to recover from their mistakes. Under the leadership of Nicholas Pooran expect that their performance will be better.
West Indies is not fielding their best team and hence they are struggling but the surprise in today's match up is that New Zealand is really struggling with the bat as they lost their 6th wicket for 126 runs and all of their top order batsman are back in the pavilion and Michael Bracewell along with Mitchell Santner is in the crease and they need to play a longer innings to rescue New Zealand to a respectable score, if not West Indies will win the match without much struggle.West Indies is really passing through bad times.

NZ 190 (45.2)
WI 86/3 (17)
West Indies need 105 runs.
Since Nicholas is batting pooran Markut has the batsman only if he can bat just ten overs, the game will surely go in favor of West Indies. New Zealand have chased few runs so it will not be too difficult for West Indies to target this small capital. Today's match will definitely go in favor of West Indies.

There is an ODI match between West Indies and New Zealand on 18th. I think West Indies are a very strong team on their own ground. And Nicholas Pooran is likely to lead the way for the West Indies. The West Indies team has already developed a lot under his leadership. W

OK... these three matches are going to be part of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League. And more importantly, they will be the last matches in ODI super league for West Indies. At this point they have 80 points from 21 matches. I guess they need at least one more win, to stay comfortably at top-8 position in the super league. Sri Lanka has 62 points with 6 matches left. And their remaining matches are against New Zealand and Afghanistan. If Sri Lanka manages to win 3 out of 6, then they will qualify instead of West Indies. Both teams West Indies and Sri Lanka former World Champions in this format are now struggling badly for avoiding qualifying round is surely a serious concern as both are badly going down in quality and need some serious changes which are indeed if they want to stay in good shape otherwise this is going to be disaster for them in near future.

Just to let you know that Netherland is ranked 15th in ODI ranking and Pakistan is ranked 4th. I expected far better performance from the Pakistani side considering Netherland was were not playing in full strength. If Pakistan would have been playing with the top 5 ODI teams the end result would have been completely different. There is a serious issue with the Pakistani side and the selectors should start working on it.
You need to know that Netherlands was also playing without their regular bowlers such as Paul van Meekeren, Roloef van der Merwe and Timm van der Gugten as they busy with county cricket. Even Fred Klaassen is playing the Hundred in England. So the absence of players was more of an issue for Netherlands when compared to Pakistan. But that also meant that they could offer chances to some of the promising youngsters, such as Aryan Dutt, Tim Pringle, Vikramjit Singh and Vivian Kingma. And at least Dutt and Kingma made an impression during the first match.

Oh, dear! Right now, ranks are not working for any team as we already have few good examples in Ireland vs New Zealand and India they are giving their best against top ranked teams because they have few players those are playing in England counties and have good experience same happening here in Netherlands case as well but still it's a good entertaining match between these two teams with Pakistan needs to improve as always.Good thing their bowlers squad is again doing good and many youngsters are already had quality to join good ranks no Afridi and Hassan Ali but still they are restricting them under 300 is also good achievement because once I was feeling they can win, but Naseem Shah last few overs were exceptional even he was playing his first ODI.
Pakistan VS Netherland was a serious moral disaster for the Pakistani side. Netherland were not playing with their main squad and still they managed to chase and we're defeated only by 16 runs. Pakistan needs more bowlers like Shaheen Afridi. This team is too much dependent on Babar Azam and Afridi. If one of them is not in the team they crumble very easily.
Although the margin of victory was small, at no point Netherlands looked to be in a position to win the match. Pakistan was playing under unfamiliar conditions, and without their strike bowler. We need to give them credit for winning the match. BTW, despite the absence of Shaheen Shah Afridi, I thought that Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf bowled quite well. Mohammad Wasim was also quite good, although he was a bit unlucky not to get more wickets. In the batting department, Fakhar Zaman was amazing once again. The combination of Fakhar Zaman - Babar Azam always works for Pakistan.
