Westindies performance has not been upto the mark in recent times. They were struggling against India earlies and they are now struggling against Newzealand. I hope they do not lose more matches against them otherwise it will demoralize the WI side before the worldcup.
West Indies current season in T20 is going very badly especially West Indies T20 series loss against Bangladesh, T20 series loss against India, recently. The first match against New Zealand was a hard-fought loss. However, it looks like the West Indies will not play too badly against New Zealand. In the second match I think West Indies will start with their win.

Afghanistan vs Ireland
Afghanistan vs Ireland Today Afghanistan have saved 122 runs during this middle game. And with Ireland in a much better position, Afghanistan are much more likely to lose. But meanwhile Afghanistan players did not play well due to lack of skill. Afghanistan's wickets have fallen the most due to which their run rate is very low.
The spinner bowler does not get much advantage at Ireland's home venue. We already know that Ireland's cricket pitch is mainly conducive to medium pacers and pacers.Rashid Khan and Mujibur Rahman are not performing very well in this venue. Md. Nabi and other all-rounders are not able to show their best performance. Afghanistan vs Ireland Today Afghanistan have saved 122 runs during this middle game. And with Ireland in a much better position, Afghanistan are much more likely to lose. But meanwhile Afghanistan players did not play well due to lack of skill. Afghanistan's wickets have fallen the most due to which their run rate is very low.
Hashmatullah Shahidi is still there, but he is rapidly running out of partners. Ireland bowlers seems to be on fire and taking full advantage of the home conditions. I am surprised that Craig Young is still out of the playing XI. Mark Adair got in, probably because of his superior batting skills. And more importantly, Curtis Campher picked up two important wickets. In order to have a chance of win, Afghanistan needs at least 140-145 runs on board. And given the current situation, that maybe difficult.
Ireland will probably do this to secure a win in this match. Afghanistan's 122 runs is a paltry tally which Ireland will not find difficult to achieve at home. The current state of the match requires 60 runs in 10 overs.

Among the first 5 batsmen in the West Indies squad, none other than Shamarh Brooks has played well. Boorks scored 42 runs off 43 balls, with a strike rate of less than 100. Batting like this against a big target like 186 is not possible to win. On the other hand, experienced batsmen like Hetmyre returned to the dressing room after collecting only 2 runs. Until the West Indies batsmen can get back on track, we will continue to see poor performances from them.
What do you expect from West Indies? They used to be good in the T20 format. But given their recent performances, I have doubt about that as well. The Kiwis had some classy batsmen such as Kane Williamson and Devon Conway. But even then, the West Indian bowlers conceded too many runs. Their inconsistency is surprising. Obed McCoy was smashed all around the park, days after he had his 6-wicket haul against India. When are we going to witness some consistent performance from the West Indians?
New Zealand won the first T20 against the West Indies. I am not trying to blame the West Indies here because they did try their hardest. The problem for the West Indies was that they could not play Mitchell Santner. That was the reason why they lost the match. The problem for the West Indies of not being able to play spin bowlers has been hanging on for a long time now. It is evident that they could not fix the problem even now.
West Indies have reliable power heaters but as long as they don’t improve in that bowling department they are not able to win T20 matches against the bigger opponents. Now they will have to win two T20 matches back to back against New Zealand to claim this T20 series. And I really don’t think they will be able to do that.

Afghanistan Vs Ireland, 2nd T20I
The toss has been won by Afghanistan, and they will bat first. There is no change in either team today. Since Ireland already leads five T20Is 1-0, Ireland have proven that they are capable and confident enough to progress to 2-0 today. With a goal of leveling the score at 1-1, Afghanistan hopes to bounce back from this game. Again, Ireland will chase, but will they succeed like in the first T20I? As a result, Afghanistan batters should be able to post a decent total.

Well, this score was certainly unexpected for me. It was expected that Afghanistan would perform a lot better against Ireland, but it is Ireland who is doing well against Afghanistan so far. 10 overs have been played and the score is 62. And Afghanistan has lost four wickets. This is not a very favorable score for Afghanistan in my opinion. But I know that even if Afghanistan is able to score 140 they have the power to defend that total. So the key for Ireland will be not to lose focus and not let Afghanistan score more than 130.

As in the first match, Rahman Ullah lost his wicket at the start and Afghanistan stumbled at the start. Needless to say, Afghanistan will probably lose this match to Ireland. Rashid Khan in particular deviated slightly from his performance. Rashid Khan is not able to perform like before. Stay tuned till you get the next update.

The two opener batsmen returned to the dressing room after collecting only 1 run each. Usman Ghani managed to collect only 1 run from 9 balls. And Afghanistan scored only 59 runs in 9 overs and lost 4 wickets. Afghanistan probably won't win. Ireland's bowlers are in great form today.

In the second match I think West Indies will start with their win. West Indies will also lose the series against New Zealand. Their performance in the last few series has been very poor. Even against New Zealand, the West Indies were defeated by a small margin of runs. But the performance of most of their batsmen was poor. Batsmen are not in form. Also, the squad lacks experienced bowlers. West Indies cannot win the series against New Zealand either.

West Indies brought some hurt Odean Smith and Romario Shepherd The batsman showed New Zealand some damage to their bowling page. Although they lost to the West Indies by a narrow margin, their performance in the last over was a very poor one for New Zealand. New Zealand played very well on their home ground Due to which I got to see their team win.
What a performance from the duo, Shepherd have managed to score 31 of 16 balls and Smith have scored 27 of 12 balls. If the middle order have managed to score little more, this could've been a win for West Indies. As said, New Zealand bowlers could've struggled to restrict this duo from scoring. Being on the home ground is really an advantage and the teams will be making more plans for the second T20.Among the first 5 batsmen in the West Indies squad, none other than Shamarh Brooks has played well.

Pakistan's next set of matches will be with Ireland and the first of three test matches will start from 16 August. Seeing the recent performance of Ireland team, Pakistan needs to play well otherwise upsets can happen.

In the end, Mitchell Santner won the match for New Zealand. He had amazing figures of 4-0-19-3 and got the crucial wickets of Nicholas Pooran, Shimron Hetmyer and Shamarh Brooks. West Indies never really had a good chance to win. The moment New Zealand put up a total above 180, the outcome of the match was clear to everyone. James Neesham's little cameo towards the end (33 from 15 balls) turned out to be decisive. West Indies bowlers need to stop leaking runs towards the end overs.
