In this event first time we have three teams from subcontinent and other thing is some good performances from Indian, Bangladeshi and Pakistani women's can encourage thousands of others at their respective countries specially Bangladeshi women's are in good touch after beating Pakistan and having very close lost against West Indians even once I was sure these ladies can win but sadly their poor skills and inexperience give them this shocking lost otherwise this was going to be historic movement for them as first time entry and won two matches which is really amazing performance.

Right now Indian women's are fighting for place in semifinal even now it's looking difficult but still have good chance. Pakistani Sidra first player completing a hundred in this competition, another milestone look like all well for these all women.

If India can make a good performance in this tournament I think they will be able to get some help from the BCCI which they should have got a long time ago.
So, they will be determined to show a good performance in this tournament.

But, the only reliable team in this tournament is Australia at the moment because other than them I cannot predict confidently about any other team. The West Indies are looking quite good though. But, I think they are riding their luck and it's probably a matter of time before their luck runs out.

The way the Australian team chased the Indian target of around 277 runs, it seems that they are unbeatable and they out perform all the other teams participating in the world cup. I can see them a clear winner in this world cup.
Today, we also witness another thriller match between NewZealand and England. NZ become really close to winning this match and they only needed one wicket to make the match in their name. But luckily England survived and chased the target.

The Australian team really looks to be unbeatable and they are basically running over every opponent in their path. I really have no idea which team in this world cup will be able to stop Australia. They have a team of great players. And almost all of the players are performing regularly and consistently. I thought England could be the one who will defeat Australia but they haven't been on a good run in this tournament.

Another match up and another surprise from Bangladesh but i would say the pitch was turning a lot and it was a difficult pitch to bat and Bangladesh was wrong in assessing the pitch as they won the toss and elected to bat. If they would have sent South Africa to bat after winning the toss, i think the situation would have been different. Toss was crucial in a pitch like this and Bangladesh ended up in the receiving end.
Yeah, the pitch was difficult for batting and Bangladeshi openers failed to make a strong partnership today. The middle order batsmen tried to make Bangladesh alive in the game, but the target was really low. The captain of Bangladesh didn't expected such pitch. South Africa has won the match easily. The 3rd ODI match will determine the series winner. The match will be played in SuperSport Park cricket stadium, where the first ODI took place.

de Kock absolutely devastated the bowlers of Bangladesh. I agree that Bangladesh did not read the pitch well. It was a bowling pitch at first. And it was obvious that  Parnell getting injured helped Bangladesh to get at least a few runs on the board, otherwise, it could have been a lot worse.

Afif was the only one who tried to put up a fight and scored 72 runs. The top order of Bangladesh absolutely failed. South Africa had an easy victory of seven wickets.

Bangladesh after scoring 300+ runs in first ODI failed to score even 200 today. The main reason for this is that shakib was out on zero. Bangladesh team is extremely dependent on Shakib. Kagiso Rabada was the man for SA who destroyed Bangladesh batting by taking 4 wickets. I am sure SA will win 3rd ODI also.

There was a huge debate on Pakistan and Aussie test match and the dead pitch, someone suggested that there should be a set pattern and rules for making pitches. But seem like many teams get an edge when they play on home ground and they are well practiced and well aware of how the ball will spin on that pitch. Let's hope the best team wins.

Bangladesh's performance in the first ODI surprised me. Their performance in today's match has surprised me even more. At the end of 12 overs, Bangladesh collected 34, they lost four valuable wickets. And if they can't build a partnership, they will lose all their wickets before 100 runs. Mahmudullah and Mushfiqur are in the crease. Both are experienced players. Let's see if the team can play well at this bad time.
It is a bag of surprises from Bangladesh and i was happy to see Bangladesh perform like they did in the first ODI but in the second one i knew South Africa will be waiting to smash them but i did not expect Bangladesh to fold like this and in return Quinton de Kock is batting as if he got a huge target to chase striking at over 165 and the match would end pretty fast if it continues like this Cheesy.

Even though Bangladesh started badly but still managed to make 194 runs in the end. Mahmudullah, Afif Hossain and Hasan Miraz helped them scored a decent score. However, in the chase, south Africans are too good and they should comfortably win this match. Quinton de Kock scored 62 and now they should easily win this match unless we see some really bad cricket from the SA. The required run rate is 2.8 with 8 wickets remaining.

South Africa VS Bangladesh

After a great victory in the first match, Bangladesh decided to bat after winning the toss in the second match. Now it seems they were overconfident today. Overconfidence is never good. Bangladesh lost two wickets for only 8 runs. Tamim returned to the dressing room with 1 run and Shakib with 0 runs. Mushfiqur and Liton are now at the crease. If they can't prolong the partnership then Bangladesh will lose badly in this match.
Bangladesh did won the first match but this does not mean that they will keep winning all the matches against south africa. The heroes of the first match Tamim Iqbal, Litton Das and Shakib Al Hasan all of them are out cheaply and i think that bangladesh will put on a modest total today.
For sure, you cant take south african lightly in their home ground, first match was an exception though. I would call that match an upset.

This WC has lost its charm as Australia is unbeaten so far and it seems very much likely that they will take the Cup home. Apart from that full credit to teams of WI and SA for beating teams like NZ and England. I am sure in next WC we will see more improved performance from India and Bangladesh.
Even today India gave a decent target of 277 but couldn't defend it, purely a bowlers fault.
Well.. I was expecting Australia to win. Right now in women's cricket Australia is what India is in men's game. They have several superstars such as Ellyse Perry, Megan Schutt and Meg Lanning. Indians on the other hand are having a very unbalanced side, with the 39-year old Jhulan Goswami still heading the pace attack. This time the top order also failed for India (Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma made a total of 22 runs between them), but Mithali Raj and Harmanpreet Kaur guided them to a decent total. But in the end, it came to experience and better ability to preform under pressure.

Australia and England are the two better teams in this competition and everyone expected them to be the winners, I mean one of them. But England did not look to perform at their best in this tournament. And Australia does not seem like they have too much trouble from the other teams. All the other teams playing in this tournament are just not at the level of Australia in women's cricket.

The way the Australian team chased the Indian target of around 277 runs, it seems that they are unbeatable and they out perform all the other teams participating in the world cup. I can see them a clear winner in this world cup.

Second ODI between South Africa and Bangladesh scheduled for today. Since the series is a part of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League, another defeat for South Africa will push them further towards oblivion. Right now they just have 39 points from 11 matches and are placed at the 10th spot behind West Indies and Pakistan. They need to win at least half of their remaining matches, else they need to play in the qualifying tournament in order to gain an entry to the ODI world cup of 2023. Bangladesh on the other hand is very comfortably placed.

Yes it will start shortly at Johannesburg. Bangladesh played quite well in first game but there only issue is consistency. They have won the first match but they don't have the capacity to repeat that in coming matches. This is dilemma of Bangladesh for last 2 decades. My bet today will be on SA as they will definitely take revenge of first ODI defeat.

NZ-W vs England-W
This is an important match for both teams. A loss here for England means they are going back home while for NZ-W a win here definitely means a chance to play semi. Nobody has predicted such tight points table before the start of this WC.
So far England is favorite for this game as they bowled out NZ for 203 runs in 49 overs and in there innings they are 42/1 in 9 overs.

Another defeat by Indian Woman in the World Cup even though they scored a decent total with a blistering innings from Harmanpreet Kaur and Pooja Vastrakar and a slow paced innings from Mithali Raj and still Australia was too good especially their top order Rachael Haynes, Alyssa Healy and Meg Lanning and it looks like they have the complete team to win this world cup.
Indian Women does the best, but they weren't able to take some early wickets. This is the reason for the loss against Australia Women. If the partnership were broken at certain time interval surely the batting order will collapse, but Australia used to gain confidence when the partnership gets built. India have lost its matches against New Zealand, England and now Australia. This narrow it's entry to the top four. As said Australia is strong enough to hold the Cup once again.

Winning against Australia was not easy. They are the strongest team in the tournament. And they are still undefeated. However, the performance of India's batsmen is very commendable. They were able to give a target good enough. If the Indian bowlers had performed a little better, India might have won. But the bowlers' performance was poor. Now, it remains to be seen whether the bowlers' performance is poor or more experienced than the Australian batsmen.

It is a huge win for Bangladesh as i did not expect this kind of performance from Bangladesh while touring and the odds were huge if you placed a bet on Bangladesh to win the match and they batted really well and they were able to pick wickets and put pressure back on South Africa and it was a great victory. Tomorrow is the next match and the odds are still showing Bangladesh as a heavy underdog, but i am not sure whether they will showcase the same level of performance.
Shakib's entry is huge benefit for them, and they have done historic win against mighty South Africa in away match after having great win in test against New Zealand now peoples can feel good for win again in tomorrow match and first ever series win against South Africa after first ever win in ODI in South Africa.
 
From start, they were in good touch with Tamim, Litton and Yasir all were on fire with Shakib after having very solid target of 314 in bowling again they were very good and not allowed any South African for having any good chance for giving them challenge David Miller and Van Der Dussen both try for some resistance but it's well short fall now tomorrow match is also going to be very exciting hopefully we will watch very entertaining match from both teams.
