Today's match is Zimbabwe vs India but Zimbabwe's batting has performed very poorly. It looks very sad to watch the game as Zimbabwe team is under a lot of pressure at the moment with 2 wickets down. 5 runs for 2 wickets at the moment is very difficult for Zimbabwe. Arshdeep Singh and Bhuvneshwar Kumar put in such a good bowling performance that both took two wickets in two overs. India's victory in today's match is sure and they will go to semi-final and Zimbabwe unfortunately won't win today's match they have performed very poorly at present.

Netherlands won @10.50
Pakistan won @1.20

Told you guys, it is making big money to bet always on the underdog in this tournament so far, the rain, the pitch, the short format is making it all so special for the less fancy opponents. My South Africa pick is out, well done Netherlands, I totally underestimated you.

Congrats Pakistan and India you guys get to meet England and New Zealand now.

Many people were watching Bangladesh Pakistan match, finally the result of this match came in favor of Pakistan.  Pakistan secured the semi-final as the second team from Group Two.  Pakistan will next face New Zealand on the 9th.  I think South Africa's loss to Netherlands was a huge opportunity for Pakistan.  Since Pakistan cricket team has confirmed semi-final I hope they do well in semi-final.  Hope we all enjoy the match between Pakistan and New Zealand on the 9th.

Pakistan cricket team won very easily. Today's match was an important one for both the teams. Bangladesh scored 127 runs in that important match. However, 127 runs in today's match was not enough for any team to win. Today's match was a match where a win would guarantee the semi-final and a loss would mean a farewell from the T20 World Cup. Bangladesh could not use that opportunity. Due to which they lost very easily to Pakistan. Pakistan chased down the target of 128 runs with ease and won by five wickets.

In the end Pakistan wins and qualifies for the semifinals. They dominated the match from the first ball. Now they will play against Newzealand and India will play against England. If both Pakistan and India win the semifinals then we will see both of them playing against each other in this world cup finals.

With only 127 runs, Bangladesh cricket team's bowlers have struggled a lot against Pakistan. But it is not possible to win a match against a team like Pakistan with so little investment. If the Bangladeshi batsmen could have finished the way they started in the beginning, the result of the match might have been in favor of Bangladesh. So far the Pakistanis have amassed 121 runs for four wickets in 16 overs from five balls. It is only a matter of time before Pakistan wins this match This match was a do or die match for both. The team that will win this match will confirm the semi-final.

Bangladesh is struggling on the field with a target of 128, which is not a tough fight, as the target of 128 is not enough to reach the semi-finals.  Pakistan is already reaching their goal.  Let's assume that Pakistan make it to the semi-finals.  Pakistan have already collected 80 runs with the loss of only two wickets.

Edited: 94/3(15 ov) need 34 run to 30 balls
Edited: Pakistan need 22 run to 27 balls

Finally Pakistan won the match with 5 wickets. Congratulations to the Pakistan team for qualifying to the semi-finals.

If you win, the semi-finals. Aiming to go to the semi-finals Bangladesh cricket team has given a target of 128 runs to Pakistan.Expecting more from them is nothing but foolishness. Today the target of 128 runs is not safe for the Bangladesh team. But the bowling performance of Bangladesh is not very good. Today they are performing very badly. If Bangladesh loses to Pakistan today, they will be out of the T20 World Cup. Whichever team wins today will get a chance to play in the semi-finals.

Both the teams have equal chances but Pakistan's bowling action and batting will lead them to win this game. Pakistan are an unpredictable team who perform at their lowest when most are expected of them. However, if they win today's match, they will have a chance to play in the semi-finals, and no team will want to miss that chance. The current condition is completely control of Pakistan.

Pakistan will win it is 99% sure. so it is a sure bet for Pakistan. 1.20x is still huge offer . so anyone can make money from here now. I am going to make bet $200 for Pakistan . let's enjoy this match and make some easy money he he. for betting $200 i can get return $240 there $40 will be my profit which is huge for this easy match. I apprised it

Those Dutch boys won an amazing game! Having lost to Netherlands, South Africa was eliminated, and India made the semi-finals. Next up is Pakistan vs Bangladesh. Although both sides have equal chances of making the semis, Pakistan's chances of making the semis are higher. The rest will follow, but Pakistan deserves to be in the semis. Pakistan @1.20 & Bangladesh @4.20

T20 Bangladesh vs Pakistan match is taking place today. It is very necessary for the two teams to win today's match because if Bangladesh cannot win today then they will not be able to reach the semi-finals. And if Pakistan loses to Bangladesh then Pakistan will not be able to go to the semi-finals. The team that wins today's match will be able to participate in the semi-finals. Today's game will be a very contest as both the teams have a lot of big pairings so we will enjoy the game.

South Africa's loss to the Netherlands stunned the crowd. That equation was about to change where India and South Africa were dreaming of a semi-final. If Pakistan wins today's match then semi final match between India and Pakistan will be held. However, when these two competitors are on the field together, the discussion of cricket is at the highest level. But nothing can be said certainly yet. If Bangladesh can pull off a surprise like the Netherlands, the equation will change again.

Pakistan @1.27
Bangladesh @3.80

The team that wins the Bangladesh vs Pakistan match will qualify for the semi-finals.  If the game of two teams is abandoned with equal points, then the team with higher run rate in terms of net run rate will qualify for the semi-finals.  However, South Africa, Bangladesh and Pakistan have chances to qualify for the semi-finals.

Again there is a chance for Zimbabwe to reach the semi-finals because if they can beat India with a good run rate then Bangladesh will leave Pakistan and reach the semi-finals of Zimbabwe.

If abandoned matches due to heavy rainfall...
Bangladesh Vs Pakistan (Both 5 )
India Vs Zimbabwe (if Zimbabwe won then zim 5)

South Africa 5
Bangladesh 5( imagine)
Pakistan 5 (imagine)
Zimbabwe 5(imagine)

In the hypothetical equation above only the net run rate equation would qualify any team to the semi-finals.

What just happened? Another big upset in T20WC! I never expected South Africa to lose to Netherlands. Pakistan has a good chance of getting into the semifinals now. All they need to do is to defeat Bangladesh today and they will rank up to number 2 on the point table. If India loses to Zimbabwe today then they will still qualify for the semifinals. Now their is a tiny probability of these two biggest rivals to play the final of the T20WC

Looking at the odds for today's match South Africa @1.05 & Netherlands @10.50, those who placed their bets on the Dutch have been rewarded royally.

There is a real chance of upset now. Probability is that South Africa may still win this match, but they are in trouble. South Africa at 115/6 after 16 overs. With just 4 wickets remaining, they need another 44 runs. Heinrich Klaasen is still there at crease, but he is running out of partners. Keshav Maharaj is capable of making some big hits, but after him the tail starts with Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje and Lungi Ngidi. Heinrich Klaasen seems to be under enormous pressure and the required run rate has now climbed to more than 12 runs per over.  

Edit1: Heinrich Klaasen is out and South Africa need 39 runs in 15 balls. History being created at the Adelaide Oval.

Edit2: South Africa need 36 runs in 12 balls. Keshav Maharaj struggling with his running, with Kagiso Rabada at the other end.

Edit3: South Africa need 26 runs in 6 balls. Big handicap for South Africa, because Keshav Maharaj is injured and can't run.

Edit4: South Africa need 19 runs in 3 balls. Netherlands just need to make sure that they don't bowl any extras.

Edit5: Netherlands win by 13 runs. One of the biggest upsets in the history of the T20 World Cup. South Africa are out of the tournament and it also means that India is now confirmed for the semi-finals. Bas de Leede finishes the tournament with a total of 13 wickets. Netherlands NRR is now adjusted to -0.849. That means that if Pakistan beats Bangladesh today by a good margin, then they don't need to play qualifier tournament for 2024 edition. 

The Super 12 Group One game of T20 World Cup is almost complete.  New Zealand and England two teams have passed the semi-finals.  The rest of the teams are disqualified.  Australia in particular were disqualified due to their net run rate despite a four-run win against Afghanistan.

Super 12 (Group 1)
Eliminate team
Australia
Afghanistan
Sri Lanka
Ireland

Qualified to semifinal
New Zealand
England

Group 2 games are still incomplete but it can be assumed that South Africa will qualify for the semi-finals if they win against the Netherlands in today's match.  And if he loses then he will not be able to qualify.

Super 12 group 2
Eliminated team from semifinal

South Africa
Zimbabwe
Netherlands

Possible qualify to semifinal
India
Pakistan or Bangladesh

South Africa is a very good team and offers only 1.05x returns for this team which is negligible.  And on the other hand Netherlands is giving 10.50x return.  It looks very bad that the difference between the betting returns of the two teams before the start of the game is huge. Betting on this game is very risky.  Because if South Africa were to bet for a huge small return but they accidentally lost this match, it would be the biggest failure. So I am not interested in placing any bets on this match.  Although in the last match too I lost the bet and lost some money

Some spectators have the clear idea about the semi -finals. It was not assured though. In today's match, Sri Lanka will lose, it was thought from the beginning and at the end of the day it happened. In another group, India will be in the top position according to the prediction. If South Africa loses, Pakistan will have the chance. However, if South Africa win in the match they will be ahead in the point table. Even if Pakistan wins with Bangladesh, they will not qualify for the semi final. South Africa and Netherlands odds South Africa @1.05 Netherlands @10.50 according to the odds this is very simple that the next match South Africa will in the match.

England won @1.24

South Africa @1.05
Netherlands @10.50

I would be tempted to bet on Netherlands actually but they really have not shown us that they can perform against the big teams, while I still am praying for my South Africa ticket to hit lol

Good luck everyone, it is heating up big time!

@Maidak supporting England?
