Finally now we can see the World Championship of Legends at ESPNcricinfo, today we have Semi-Finals. The first Semi-Final will play between Pakistan Champions and West Indies Champions, while the second match will play between Indian champions and Australia Champions.
By the way, the Indian is very stronger but every body knows Australia in playoffs as there is the biggest example of 2023. Pakistani openers can easily make 150 against any team as we have seen them against India while they made up to 210 in 120 balls and until 150 score, Pakistan don’t had a loss of even a single wicket.

Look at this Glenn Phillips's save [1] in LPL, guy can make his team win matches by mere fielding yet he didn't play a single game for SRH in this past IPL season, despite Markram failing constantly, he was given chances, dunno what was going in Cummins's head to bench Phillips tbh.
I kept hoping he'll play game until final but it never happened.

The third match of the series between New Zealand Women vs England Women is going on now. England won the first two matches of this 5-match series by big margins. England won the first match by 59 runs. And England won the second match by DLS method by 23 runs. We have seen excellent batting and bowling from England in both the matches.
As usual, England's bowlers bowled well in the third match as well. New Zealand women's team managed to collect 141 runs losing 8 wickets in 20 overs. Captain Sophie Devine remained unbeaten on 58 runs. Besides Suzie Bates managed to collect 38 runs. Batting on a target of 142 runs, England lost the wicket of Maia Bouchier in the first over. Still I think England women will win this match. England Women's team has some talented batsmen. A target of 142 runs is not a big target for England.
England women team has won three matches at this time and they have five matches series. England women team is good in this series and looking much stronger as compare to New Zealand women team. But the yesterday match was very interesting because England women team won that match very closely. New Zealand women team took the first turn and they set a target of 142 runs and they lost 8 wickets. But when England started playing they chased the target in 19.2 overs means there were only 4 balls left when they won. Means the match was very interesting. I hope England women team will win the remaining two matches too. As usual, England's bowlers bowled well in the third match as well.

Great England Women's Team It was really interesting to snatch victory from New Zealand Women's team by a huge margin of 6 wickets. New Zealand women's team is not that strong due to which they have played three T20 matches without winning even one. What we saw from the women's team in England was really interesting, they played brilliantly and led the team to victory. England Women's team played their best to win the series, and they managed to win all three matches, but are likely to win the next two matches. The T20 series is now in the hands of England Women, however, New Zealand Women's team is not strong enough to face England Women's team.
I am still not very sure about the very purpose of this series between India and Zimbabwe. Latter can't even qualify for the T20 World Cup (even after it's expansion to 20 countries). What makes Zimbabwe a preferred team, when compared to associates such as Nepal and Namibia? Despite being a neighboring nation, the BCCI has never organized a series against Nepal till now. On the other hand, Zimbabwe gets a series against India once every 2-3 years. Quite unfair, in my opinion.
Apart from their usual commitment of handing out bilateral to full members, BCCI also strengthening India's bench strength so it makes complete sense. As far as associate nations go. BCCI recently sent Punjab domestic team to Nambia where both teams played 5 ODI series (4-1 to Punjab). They can't send the national team everywhere and from the recent trend I've noticed, it looks like they are trying to create a system where the domestic teams regularly play against associates. They did more or less the same thing when Nepal played a tri-series in Gujrat against 2 domestic teams.

Today have a break and there is no game play today in Lanka premier league tournament but July 10 two more important and interesting matches was played and in Jaffna versus Strikers team. Colombo Strikers made a bad lose in game with a big record of 188 runs and it believe that it would be difficult to chase. But their bowlers did not struggle good and gave a victory to Jaffna's batters. Jaffna Kings chased all record runs with lost 7 wickets and 9 deliveries remaining special thanks to Rilee Rossouw's unbelievable century. Also remember the performance of Glenn Phillips and he showed strong performance for Colombo with making 58 runs but their bowlers failed to restrict Jaffna for chasing record. Azmatullah Omarzai picked two wickets could not prevent Jaffna batter from reaching 190 in 18 overs. Congratulations to Jaffna Kings once again great victory.

Well still 2 matches are yet to played and India already have advantage as they already won two matches out of three.
Zimbabwe International T20 cricket team will lose the series by 4 in 1. Indian International cricket team is most strong of the World even today. But that is bravery of Zimbabwe team to win against India in first match and I was surprised when I saw the performance of Zimbabwe team against India in first match. Indian team is champion and Zimbabwe team could not qualify for World cup but Zimbabwe team flighted well in first and third match and they should improve their skills and they should change their mindset and they should work like a winners . If they didn't play well in the last two matches,they will lose the series and Zimbabwe team will go down and down in ranking.We know the financial condition of Zimbabwe is not good and after that they played well. Clapping for Zimbabwe.

none of the T20 World Cup winning squad players are with India in this series.
Incorrect. Sanju Samson, Shivam Dube, Jaiswal, Rinku (although he was in reserved player list) were part of t20wc squad and also part of this series squad.
India bowled well in the beginning but could not bowl well towards the end otherwise they could have won the match by a huge margin.
Dube and Abhishek who are still work-in-progress bowlers went plenty so it played it's part in this small margin victory.

India gave the target of 183 runs to Zimbabwe Shubman gill played brilliant innings of 66 runs on just 49 balls while Ruturaj Gaikwad missed his fifty by just 1 run excellent batting by Indian batsman they made the bowlers a lot of trouble. Zimbabwe team failed to chased this target and lost by 23 runs Dion Myers played 65 runs not out innings but unluckily to won the match for his team he fought hard but could not finish the match credit goes to India bowlers who dominated on Zimbabwe batting line up. Washington Sundar takes three wickets and India won the match by 23 runs by winning this match India team won the series by 2-1Overall poor performance from Zimbabwe. First poor fielding, then while batting soft dismissals of early batters, after them being 39-5 was expecting them get to wrapped up soon but Myers and Madande's 6th wicket partnership saved them from humiliating defeat.
Apart from Dion Myers, the Zimbabwean top order batsmen were in and out of the pavilion. I thought Zimbabwe's second innings would end below 100 runs, but Madande & Dion Myers' 77 off 57 balls narrowed the gap. Masakadza & Dion Myers added 41 off 21 more balls for the seventh wicket to take their innings to 159. India bowled well in the beginning but could not bowl well towards the end otherwise they could have won the match by a huge margin. legendary

^ Such series are meant to groom young talent (including Gill captaining the team) and serve as testing ground for selectors to pick players for where it matters (i.e, WCs), this same team unlikely to be sent against big teams obviously.
There are a lot of young players on the Indian team, including captain Shubman. No doubt, this series aims to give them more international exposure and experience, helping them grow in maturity. But is it too early to give such responsibility to a player like Shubman? Regardless the current stage, the team needs to firmly believe they can beat any team in the world. Their mentality should be strong; otherwise, they might face more embarrassing moments.I feel this series is important for BCCI. Because in this series they are trying to find out which players are suitable for the Indian national team. And in this series the young Indian players will get a chance to become more experienced.
A few days ago India won the T20 series. However, none of the T20 World Cup winning squad players are with India in this series. BCCI has plenty of young and talented players. Playing against a big and experienced team, the young Indian players might not have played well. Because they are not experienced enough. So BCCI fielded a youth-reliant team against Zimbabwe. Since Zimbabwe is not very strong. So even if the performances of Indian young players are erratic, their chances of winning are high.

Why would making Subhman captain be wrong or sending young squad be wrong? It's useless bilateral series, that too against Zimbabwe.
In the very first match India lost the match but after that they make an excellent comeback. In the second match they were very good in batting and bowling too. And in the third match India manage to bat first and they set a target of 183 runs. In which the captain Shubman Gill batting was good and he made 66 runs. After him Ruturaj Gaikwad was good who made 49 runs.
Well after setting a target by Indian team Zimbabwe started their turn. First three batsmen made some pressure on team when they got out earlier. In between Dion Myers was playing well who made 65 runs. But there was no player who remained on the pitch with him. So Zimbabwe made only 159 runs in 20 overs and they lost the match. And now series is at 2-1.
At this time India has some new talents so they are giving some opportunities to the Zimbabwe team. If there will be the team which has played the World Cup so I am sure the Zimbabwe will never go above 120 runs. But there are some new players in the Indian team so BCCI is just checking that which players are more suitable for the future. So they are giving some chances to new players to prove themselves. I think that is the reason which lead the Indian team to lose the first match. But as you mentioned that India made a good comeback. And now they are playing well and I hope they will continue. They have 2 matches left I hope India will finish this series with 4-1.Well after setting a target by Indian team Zimbabwe started their turn.

India is already leading the T20 series between Zimbabwe and India. With only two matches remaining in the T20I series between them, a win in one of these two matches will ensure India win the series.
