Lol. You do realise that Ashwin is the reason India won against Pakistan before Karthik almost messed it up towards the end, don't you? Think!
Agreed. Ashwin is the best spin bowling option India has at this point, although his batting may not be as good as Axar. And Yuzvendra Chahal is nowhere in the picture as a spin bowling option. And now coming to the position of wicket keeper, it is a tough choice between Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik. The latter got a few chances till now and couldn't make use of them. His age seems to be catching up. I guess Indians can give a chance to Pant tomorrow, since their match is against a relatively weak team.
Another player that needs to be dropped is Ashwin, he took only one wicket in three matches and has not been contributing through his bat.
Lol. You do realise that Ashwin is the reason India won against Pakistan before Karthik almost messed it up towards the end, don't you? Think!He hasn't been contributing and he needs to be dropped but it all depends on the team management. Rahul Dravid has already clarified KL Rahul and DK. Rishab Pant might play tomorrow if DK is declared unfit otherwise these two guys will remain. Ashwin can get replaced by Chahal in tomorrow's match.
P.S: In today's match, Mark Wood bowled the fastest ball in T20WC which was 154 MPH.
Buttler and Hales partnership was the reason why NZ lost this one. Phillips was the hero once again, but he didn't get enough support from his teammates due to which they ended up falling short at the end.
NZ are over-dependent on players like Phillips, Conway etc which is their weakness currently in the T-20 format.

The Gabba, Brisbane England and New Zealand are two very well-known teams in this field.
A few days ago, New Zealand faced Australia in the T20 World Cup. This venue was but Australia's own ground. But it was seen that New Zealand set a target of 201 runs in that match but Australia came to bat in the second innings and managed to get 111 runs after losing all the wickets. So no matter how familiar the field, cricket is actually an uncertain glorious game. It is never possible to predict how a team will perform.
The Gabba, Brisbane England and New Zealand are two very well-known teams in this field. Both the teams have faced each other many times on this ground but one important thing is that night matches become very difficult to bat towards last. Especially at night, the fog and humidity on the pitch make the pitch messy, resulting in poor batting. Moreover, as I have seen in the past matches, it has become very difficult for those who have batted at night to win. From this point of view, the England captain has very wisely decided to bat first in the innings. As of the last report, England scored 77 runs after 10 overs without a wicket. Finally it can be said that it will not be very difficult for England to give a target of 180 runs. On this pitch, it will be very difficult to target above 170 runs in the night.

England @1.65

Interesting odds! England won the toss and selected to bat first. This is a good decision by the English team management. Now, it would be more interesting to see what will be the Kiwis bowling strategy. I am pretty sure England batters would like put on a target excess of 170 as in the night it will not be easy to bat for the Newzealand batters.

This is going to be a tough one but England should win it, especially because Australia won yesterday, so are joint Group 1 leaders with New Zealand who surely want to double whammy guarantee progress and kick out a tournament favorite!

Our goal is to see good cricket matches between Asia's two best spinner factories.
And I think we achieved our goal! Afghanistan probably felt they could have done more but 144 was still a pretty respectable score from their first 3 batters. But when Farooqi bowled such a maiden, people began to doubt Sri Lanka honestly. But after the break, 6 and 4s rule, Sri Lanka should easily win in I would say 10 mins max.
Hello Salman - this is one of the best forums so far. You have been doing a great post since the start of the forum
I have not watched any match today but by looking at your posts I got the idea what is going on. Well done - keep it!

Thanks I guess
I know tons of other better posters but as long as we all do our sincere best and actually post to support something we believe in right? Afghanistan started so good that in the first 10 overs their projected score was 170+ and now after the 19th over they are struggling to reach 150. Good comeback by the Srilankan team but as usual their fielding has been not upto the mark. The target 145 runs can be achieved easily if the Srilankan batter do not rush to achieve it. Winning this match for both the team is very critical for them to stay in the tournament.
Afghanistan's bowling line is stronger than Sri Lanka, especially Mujeeb, Rashid Khan, Nabi bowled very strongly in the spin line. So it's not very easy for Sri Lanka to score runs, It will not be possible to meet the target. Moreover, if Afghanistan could have scored 160 plus runs, the match would have been a 50-50 chance. However, Afghanistan's bowling line-up has been under pressure for now. Sri Lanka scored 28 runs after six overs. In this case, Nissanka went back to the pavilion as per Farooq.

Afghanistan take on Sri Lanka today with 88 runs in 12 overs till the last news. In the previous matches, Afghanistan and New Zealand were drawn without a toss due to rain Abandoned at one-one point.Later, the match between Afghanistan and Ireland was abandoned with one -one point each without a toss. So far, Afghanistan are ahead of Sri Lanka with two points from three matches without a win. On the other hand, Sri Lanka are at the bottom of Group 2 of the points table with two points from three matches.

A lot of debate is ongoing regarding Mankading, after Glenn Philips invented the new method to avoid getting run-out. This is not a risk-free method, as the bowler can still stop in his stride and run-out the non-striker. There needs to be a balance in between. If the bowler ignores the non-striker, then it will give an advantage to the batting team. But at the same time, if the bowler runs out the non-striker, then everyone will complain about the lack of sportsman spirit. The best solution to this issue is to deduct runs from the batting team as "short run", if the non striker ventures out of the crease before the ball is bowled. ICC should look in to this.

Was surprised to see some people actually thinking that they still had a chance despite losing their first two matches narrowly.
They would have been the best contender for this world cup T20 if they have a good batting lineup. Their bowling is one of the best now in the world but sadly their batting lineup isn't. Especially when your Top order is out of form consistently, it gets hard to win a match. I can't remember when I last time saw Babar Azam play in form. Rizwan is not in good shape either. Well, I supposed them to be a good contender and expected to see India and Pakistan qualify from this group. 
Ireland's bowling department did very well early on but later Aaron Finch hit 44 balls A big innings of 63 runs put the team in a respectable position. Australia scored 179 runs for the loss of five wickets in the last twenty overs. Watching Australia play in the end proves that good teams are always determined to do well. However, a big challenge ahead of Ireland is how much success they can achieve.
Smaller teams are usually under a bit of pressure when playing against bigger. Though Ireland did well in the beginning later they failed to control Australian batsman. Australia three batsmen who have performed well. Finch played a big innings of 63 off 44 balls. Although Ireland's cricketer are playing better than before but they remain at the bottom in the pints table of the tournament.I agree with @LDL that Ireland actually started quite well against Australia in bowling. However, I believe the problem has arisen in that Ireland has considered 70 runs in 6 overs from over 11 to 17 if I am not mistaken.
That is the stage where I think Ireland lost the match. That was a big turning point in the match. And the bowlers of Ireland were unable to do much against the very aggressive batting of Australia. In the second innings, Ireland did not have a partnership either. The cricket of Ireland has improved but has not improved to the level where they will start defeating bigger opponents in my opinion.
Australia vs Ireland, 31st Match, Super 12 Group 1 The game was played very well. Australia team won today's T20 World Cup Australia vs Ireland match. Australia scored a lot of runs batting first and their performance was very good. Stannis, Mitchell Marsh and Finch gave a very good performance to the visitors in today's game. Ireland did not bat very well due to which they lost all wickets. If Lorcan Tucker had been on the field batting for a little more time, Ireland would certainly have had some hope of victory. But Ireland team did not perform well in today's game so they lost to Australia. Today Australia vs Ireland match score.
Australia - 179/5
Ireland - 137/10
Australia - 179/5
Ireland - 137/10
They tried Hooda yesterday because he is an all rounder but never gave him a chance to bowl then why select him. Another player that needs to be dropped is Ashwin, he took only one wicket in three matches and has not been contributing through his bat.
I guess Rohit Sharma forgot that he existed in the team
Otherwise, he would have been allowed to bowl when Ashwin was getting hammered. Ashwin has not been at his best in this T20 world cup. Chahal should be given an opportunity in this world cup he has a proven record and he can get more wickets when compared with Ashwin. Jump to:
