The 2024 season of Major League Cricket will start by 5th July, with the first match scheduled between MI New York and Seattle Orcas. The match will take place at the Church Street Park cricket ground in the city of Morrisville, North Carolina. Kieron Pollard is captaining MI New York, while Trent Boult, Dewald Brevis, Tim David, Rashid Khan, Anrich Nortje, Nicholas Pooran and Kagiso Rabada are some of the other star players in the team. In comparison, Seattle Orcas doesn't have the same star power, and they are captained by Wayne Parnell. Important overseas players are Quinton de Kock, Nandre Burger, Heinrich Klaasen and Obed McCoy.
So many big names. Seattle Orcas sounds great, but what the heck is MI New York? That is such a stupid name. They clearly retained several players from the original MI side, but the name is downright hilarious.

Also, Wayne Parnell? Thought he retired from all forms of cricket a long time ago. Their team is Mini-South Africa basically.

Yes hopefully we see very close match today same like previous fourth match and in this match, Jaffna Kings squad emerged victorious with very narrow margin of wickets and delivery. Today fight match of Lanka Premier League competition has already begun among sqauds Colombo Strikers against Galle Marvels. Today these sqauds already emerged victory in their previous matches and both have equal number of win points with minor difference in their runs rate. Galle Marvels squad successfully completed their first batting inning and in this inning, their batters played very amazingly like Niroshan Dickwella has managed to collect 50 scores after playing 18 deliveries  Shocked with power shots. Isuru Udana also completed mid century scores of total 52 with playing 34 deliveries these two batter showcased impressive performance that's why Galle Marvels squad has managed this 179 scores as Defeating target and now against squad batting inning has lived now and lets watch will Colombo sqaud achieved this victory or not?

At the first innings start, we thought that today Galle Marvels would win this match and will go up to 220 or maybe 230 but then after some time, we changed our thought because then we have seen suddenly back to back wickets by Colombo bowlers especially, Shadab Khan, and then we had a thought that Galle Marvels would not even touch to 100 but when they started to play slowly and calmly then after that they could be given an average target.

Lmao. What investigation are you talking about? This is all just silly talk basically. Sky clearly took the catch properly without touching the boundary rope and dumb haters are just trying to spread nonsense.
Anyone with a half-decent brain wouldn't even bother discussing this stuff since it wasn't controversial at all. Think!
People should raise questions about the mentality and performance of South African players instead of raising questions about the catch. South Africa wouldn't even won the match if it was a six. 30 runs were required from 30 balls, and they let it happen to 16 runs from last 6 balls. They have lost the match in the same way as the way they won against Bangladesh and Nepal.
Any team in the world 30 runs from 30 balls where they have five valuable wickets but need 16 runs in an over towards the end, it was again some kind of defense mode game. David Miller and Maharaj will come in the last over to take Risks. The turning point for the South African players is why Risks did not take the 18th and 19th overs. SOUTH AFRICA NEVER PLAYED THE FINAL Anyway South Africa played the final this year but could not lift the cup in the final which will be a regret of their life.
Yes ,you are right. That was golden opportunity to South African players to play good in three overs and lift the trophy but they missed the chance and Indian team attacked on South African team and South African team played defensive inning because they have fear that they could lose the wickets and then match will be bend towards Indian team .

But That was not good strategy and no player tried to hit the boundary in 3rd last and 2nd last overs. South African team needed one boundary in the over with two singles or six singles in the over but they could not handle pressure and Bumrah bowling was attacking.  At the end india won the final and they are champions. SA team will not qualify in next World Cup because that is difficult for the team to qualify for final back to back tournaments.

The match has started already and Galle Marvels have made a good start today and it could be very good thing as this type of start for them because at this time they must have to put Colombo Strikers under pressure then they can play freely.
Niroshan Dickwella and Alex Hales have made such a good start they must have to do this for longer time and try to not lose wickets under the powerplay.
If one of them will lose his wicket then they must have to try to don’t lose their batting and play again as they are playing right now. However, I think today we will see a close match between these teams.

It was a very big loss for Galle Marvels because they lost a perfect opener who is the team's captain too, one and only Niroshan Dickwella. But when he was not then he gave a lot to his team now there is a type of middle order to make good runs and try to give good targets. He lost his wicket when he made 50 in 18 which is such a good innings, now the other team must have to take over the match but this time, we are seeing poor performance from them, and we don’t want to see Niroshan Dickwella 50 to be gone wasted.  Sad

Thisara Perera is the captain of the Colombo Strikers and as they won their last match in such a good way then for sure, they are too much confident after that one victory  they must have to win it because if they will win then they will get a big lead and there chances will increase to qualify for the playoffs and also they have an important weapon Shadab Khan. He could do as well as possible. I think, Colombo Strikers must have to give overs to Shadab Khan in the powerplay but remember to save him for death overs too. He is the main player for them.

Perhaps they got impatient towards the end with no batsmen to handle the pressure when South Africa needed limited runs to win. As a result, they turn a very easy match into a very difficult match even end up losing. It is natural that the final match will be tense and breathless even in finals many times the players are under stress during the match. But those who can extricate themselves from that pressure end up grabbing the victory as the Indian bowlers did.

The final match of the 2024 Men's T20 World Cup between India and South Africa created a scenario where many fans and cricket analysts predicted that India would lose. But from there the Indian bowlers came back brilliantly even as they made a complete fool of the South African batsmen. Basically the turning point of that match was Heinrich Klaasen's dismissal. Had Heinrich stayed at the crease for a little longer, the South African team could have easily reached victory.

South Africa needed 30 runs in last 5 overs and Proteas were favourite at that moment. South Africa lost the track when they lost the wicket of Heinrich Klaasen, coming batsmen failed to face Indian bowlers. Credit goes to Indian team who kept looking for wickets despite powerful hitting by Heinrich Klaasen. South Africans have played a WC final for the very first and they went very close to victory. It was a good contest where both teams displayed good cricketing skills.

You are right I also think South Africa loses only the slow batting of David Miller. David Miller takes retirement from T20 cricket with a sad back of not winning the World Cup. David Miller is a good player but unfortunately, he could not finish the match sadly he is retiring from international cricket he had tears in his eyes when the presentation of the match was going on it is really sad that a team that won If he loses. David Miller played very slow cricket in the final match of the World Cup only scoring 21 runs from 17 balls with only 1 boundary hit. if he played aggressively then South Africa easily won the tournament final. in the last over they tried well but the catch was taken on the boundary and lost the final match by a narrow margin.

By the way that's not a right thing you are blaming only one person for the match losing. Which I think is not good. Because in my point of view he was holding the wickets because holding wickets was also an important matter of a match. They tried well but unfortunately they lost. Buy saying that Miller is responsible for this I don't agree on it. First of all I will blame the South African bowlers who did not able to stop the score and India made 176 runs. If they control the score to South Africa could win the Final match. So I will blame the whole team. Not only a one man.
A team with 11 players cannot be blamed for only one player. I will blame everyone who has come out to bat since when runs and balls were equal. It's not a normal match, it's a World Cup final and here the South African batsmen should have been patient and they should have finished. We may say that South Africa made a mistake and they must learn from that mistake but the opportunity they missed I don't know if they will get this opportunity in the next 20 years. Qualified for the final and went one stage to beat India from there they batted irresponsibly and here they were basically out of the match.  

We noticed the excitement of Indian fans and African fans on this day. We saw every moment the fans of both the countries celebrated and sat down and cheered the team but Indian cricket and Indian fans had the last laugh.

IPL is bringing many players which are surely having amazing talent and their development and skills are also having extraordinary things, but now it's time for the BCCI to work on technology as well which will make life easier and bring things at the level where we have Australia which is surely one of the best with their own system and having things which are giving them edge against all countries.

What do you mean by technology exactly?
Like CA uses Hot Spot, it's a cutting edge tech mainly developed for the military. However, for the same reason, they don't share this tech with ICC so one can forget about the BCCI.

In India, DRS is now commonly used domestically, but I guess not for every match. Heard in some podcasts that now BCCI also focuses on Data Analytics of players in the domestic, not sure if the data or process is in the public domain.


Checked the young T-20 squad for Zim tour. The batting department looks promising and packed with some quality hitters but bowling is meh atm

Odiwc, t20wc, wtc, champions trophy — Basically, ICC trophy to take each year, if they are any half-decent, they should manage to reach finals much sooner.

Colombo strikes really played well especially after few early opening batter dismissal thier middle order and lower middle order Took the inning away from opponent grip and put a big number on scored baord according to the condition and if we have a look at dismissal it's completely spinning friendly track and it's very difficult to scored such huge but some how they manage. While when thier opponent come to filled the required gap while chased they face huge trouble from spinner especially the Paksitani all rounder Shadab khan who were going with really bad form in this world cup and fans really critics him for costly overs in crucial situation got a handsome number of wickets with Hattrick and I think that they Turing point where they almost won the match.
Shadab Khan played a key role in Colombo Striker's win against Kandy with his impressive bowling figures of 4/22. However, he has not performed well for the national team and normally fans really critics him. From my understanding he should only be considered ready for international cricket if he performs consistently well in domestic leagues for several years. He needs to prove that he is more than just a league player.

the only thing that differentiates younger players and oldies is ability to handle pressure, this is something where I feel kohli excels at, it'll take a while to find his replacement.

Rinku is already good IMO, I was hoping he'd play this time around but unfortunately it didn't happen. Would have certainly done better than Dube.
I am not in favor of having comparison of talk about replacements because it's all part of the game and every player is replaceable with now we are having one of the strongest domestic league IPL in India which is bringing amazing talent and things are going at the new level as we have too many players with the confidence level is already at his best things are going India could be having one of the best T20i team and things will be favor them for existing of this all for the decades instead of years.

Colombo Strikers vs Kandy Falcons 3rd match today both teams have already entered the field. This match has started at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele. The performance of the batsmen between the two teams will depend on which team will win this match. Colombo Strikers  The team came out to bat and set a target of 198 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in 20 overs. Colombo Strikers team batsman Sadeera Samarawickrama was out for 28 runs in 26 balls. Muhammad Waseem was out for 32 runs in 18 balls. Kandy Falcons team batsmen overcame this run to win the match.It will be very difficult.

People should raise questions about the mentality and performance of South African players instead of raising questions about the catch. South Africa wouldn't even won the match if it was a six. 30 runs were required from 30 balls, and they let it happen to 16 runs from last 6 balls. They have lost the match in the same way as the way they won against Bangladesh and Nepal.
Agreed. Am used to seeing teams throw away games from a winning position in the T20 format. IPL is a great example where this sort of stuff happens on a regular basis. They simply choke under crazy pressure.

Klaasen should have taken the game deep instead of throwing his bat at everything while Miller should have retained strike instead of depending on bowlers. Foolish mistakes!

There are always replacements; it's better to replace than having veteran in team who is not performing. Anyway Washington Sundar and Axar Patel are couple Jadeja replacements that come to the mind.

There were already talks about giving young players chance even before this t20wc started, and replacing the guys like Rohit and Kohli.
Yeh Axar Patel really showed his talent in recent world cup and some how we can say he has huge role in that world cup winning because he took handsome wickets throughout the tournament in every critical match when team are in danger. So he can easily fit jaddu place while Washington hasn't showed any ordinary performance in international duty so we can't say anything about him while for Kohli and Rohit I think they already have several player who really took that responsibility like we have the young jasiwal, Gill and the emerging player of thier IPL season A.Sharma of Surpriser Hyderabad who can not only played aggressive as a oppner in power play but bowled critical overs too when needed while they have Rinku too to filled the Middle order too. But I believe they are youngster they will took time to perform better in higher level where pressure are at peak level.

Yeah, the only thing that differentiates younger players and oldies is ability to handle pressure, this is something where I feel kohli excels at, it'll take a while to find his replacement.

Rinku is already good IMO, I was hoping he'd play this time around but unfortunately it didn't happen. Would have certainly done better than Dube.

There are only 5 teams which are participating in this league. Four are mentioned above and 5th one is Kandy Falcon. And according to the current situation CLS, KAF and GAM has 2-2-2 points. So let's see with today match which team will climb in points table.
Yes, Lanka Premium Leagues 5th edition started on 1st July, and in three matches played so far Colombo Strikers, Galle Titans and B Love Candy won their first match in this session. The second match of LPL is thrilling to watch between Jaffna Kings and Galle Titans. Jaffna Kings batting first and scored a decent total 178 runs target in a loss of seven wickets. Galle Titans chase down the target in the last ball of the match 179 runs in a loss of 5 wickets. Alex Hales played a match-winning inning for Galle Titana the match by scoring 65 runs. today both matches are very interesting and I hope Colombo Strikers will win the second match they have a strong batting line in LPL this session.

I have created a thread for the Lanka premium league discussion. please everyone join the discussion
