Finally, finally, finally yes finally Pakistan women teams register their first win today against the west indies women team and we can call this a sort of an upset. The 50 overs match was reduced to 20 overs and Nida Dar took 4 wickets for 10 runs making it hard for the WI to score a big target.
Pakistan team is out of the race of the semi finals but I do hope they win one more match. They still have two more matches left.

Well done Women Team Pakistan  Smiley

Congrats to Pakistan fans they finally have something to cheer about. WI team who has done so good in his opening matches by defeating top teams like NZ and England has lost its path and lost to weak teams like Bangladesh and Pakistan. The run for semi is still very much on for WI, SA, India, England and NZ.

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.
Bangladesh team has always remained in criticism. The appreciation remained for a short time. Let's not be hard on them they have their strategy and they are trying hard to come back as a strong team. Just a little support will go a long way.

Batting first is a bad decision. Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal also expressed the same feeling, stating the wicket wasn't what they expected. In every department, Bangladesh fell short of expectations today against South Africa. As a result, South Africa won the second ODI by seven wickets and 76 balls left.
With two contrasting matches i am waiting to see what will be the result in the next match as Bangladesh have a few tricks up its sleeve in this tournament as they are able to trouble some of the South African batsman and if they do not make blunders even after winning the toss if they did not understand the nature of the pitch then there is a chance for another surprise from Bangladesh.
If something happens often then it isn't a surprise. I don't think the upcoming matches will be on the side of Bangladesh. In the first match Bangladesh got good grip on the match, and they grabbed it at every moment. In the second match South Africa took it so serious and the result changed. I'm not sure of the upcoming matches, yet South Africa will not leave it as the first match. Because, it'll create trouble to the players losing the series in home country.

In the first ODI Bangladesh played good, but it wasn't able to continue it in the second ODI. Scoring above 300 runs is big and South Africa too played with good confidence of winning the match. Few unwanted and unexpected wicket fall disturbed the partnership. This ended with a loss for South Africa. Now in the second ODI South Africa have managed to win the match in a much simple manner as the target is less than 200 runs.
It's not happening first time its usual business in cricket one day you are hero and second day you are completely zero, so we have to accept these things because it's all part of this beautiful game cricket today Rabada was on first from start, and they never allow Bangladeshi batsmen for any good score even still they manage some good runs, but these were never been good target for home team South Africa, so they have done this all very quickly and without any serious trouble now we have third and final match on 23rd March hopefully we will have some good and entertaining cricket from visitors for this decider. Litton, Tamim and Shakib all gone very cheaply and 34/5 was really shocking but still lower middle order done good resistance.

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.

The main reason for Bangladesh's defeat in this match is the poor performance of the top order players. In the first ODI match, Bangladesh won because of the good performance of the top order players. Bangladesh started losing wickets very fast in today's match. I thought they might lose all their wickets before 100. However, Bangladeshi bowlers are trying hard enough to perform well.

Great news for Bangladesh cricket fan. That's a wonderful victory. Shakib was always in discussion - I have seen so much appreciation in forum for Shakib. People spoke so high about Shakib. But Bangldesh team is now emerging as more stronger team than before. Congratulations against. Hope everyone is celebrating in Bangladesh.
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.
Brilliant BD created history with first ever  ODI win in SA. The Bangladeshi team  had never won a One-day International in South Africa in 19 previous attempts, but they have produced a superb display in the first ODI of the tour to break new ground in the format. Bangladesh's Stunning win further strengthens their place at the top of the ICC men's cricket world cup super league standings, where they lead England and India in the top three.

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.
India missed the previous match. Somehow India should've won the match. Mistakes on fielding is a major reason for the loss. In the previous two matches Indian women's bowling is quite good and this time it didn't worked. If India can win the next two matches, then it might get a chance for entering the top four. Now it is West Indies, India and England on the race to reach the top four. Bangladesh is still on the race and West Indies seems to have the highest chance.

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.
The inconsistency of Bangladeshi batting is the reason why world still doesn't thinks they are a good opponent at global level. On somedays you will see outstanding performances from their players and think that they are at par with the best teams of the world but some days you will think of them as underdogs playing just to give their best and don't actually have winning chances. 1st ODI they displayed sheer class but in second they failed miserably. A consistent team would play great on some days but play average on other days, and bad on few. There is nothing like average matches for Bangladesh.
Yeah there is no continuous performance from Bangladesh team. This team has ability to do well in world stage. They have proved that already by winning some great match against strong opponent. They need to perform continuously.

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.

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.
