Missed yesterdays match, I had no clues that Pakistan won the first T20 against England. This why this team is truly unpredictable. You do not know what will happen next when these guys play. I will be waiting for the next match and hope to see them repeat the same performance.
Nope. Pakistan lost the first match and the second one was washed away. They won the third and last match. T20 is such an unpredictable format, and even teams such as Netherlands have defeated England in this version. It is like 50% skill and 50% luck. If luck is not favoring you, then you can go down even against minnows such as Scotland and Netherlands.

The first T20 was washed out due to rain where England was on 131 for the loss of 6 wicket in the 16th over when rain stopped play and with the way Pakistan played in the next two matches there was a high possibility that they could have won the first match as they have the batting dept when Mohammad Hafeez shifted to be a stroke maker at 39 years of age. I do not remember him playing like this in the past and his performance was a big surprise as he was clearing the long boundaries with ease.

Honestly, I did not expect this result. This is basically a consolation win for Pakistan at this point. England must be gutted since it went down to the last over. Hafeez is in prime form currently while Ali performed well too.
The English spinners performed horribly. Unpredictability is the beauty of the T-20 format. Looking forward to IPL 2020.
No one expected Pakistan defeating England, in the second T20 they scored more runs than they did this time and lost the match and here England chocked with a crucial run of Eoin Morgan changed the match upside down but then i was surprised to see Moeen Ali returning back to form and played a blistering knock but it was not enough in the end, either way it was a close match and Pakistan leveled the series.The English spinners performed horribly.

Didn't expected Pakistan to win a T20 match against England, but they managed to do it somehow. Even after they made a total of 190, I was skeptical, because I knew the weakness of the Pakistan bowling attack. But the England batsmen (apart from Banton and Ali) failed to perform and they wasted a good opportunity to stay ahead with a series win.
Edit: What a match Wahab's 19th over change things for Pakistan otherwise Moeen was really on target but still good match by both teams.

In a bombshell report, Channel 7 is threatening to terminate its $450 million contract with Cricket Australia. On Friday, The Daily Telegraph’s Ben Horne revealed Channel 7 chief executive James Warburton had delivered a scathing assessment of Cricket Australia’s management, calling it a “trainwreck” and the “most incompetent” administration he has ever worked with.
If Australia, which happens to be one of the Big 3 nations is faring so badly, then you can imagine how the other boards are going to survive this crisis.

Eng vs Pak
61/2 - 7.2 overs
Surprisingly Babar got out early...

Look like good partnership between Haider and Hafeez but today they need surely 210 to 220 if they want to level this series and have some better end of this tour otherwise its going to be worst for them.

I agree IPL doesn't comes close when comparing with the WC event in terms of popularity but we can't deny the fact that IPL is worth way more than all ICC tournament put together. You don't have to believe me just check the auction of media rights.
IPL is currently a cash cow for everyone involved not only for the BCCI but for the international players too due to the auction of players.
Then we had one more factor Ind-Aus series. For CA securing the India's tour was more important. You might ask, why? Simply because of revenue.... (You scratch my back, will scratch yours) as simple as that.
My 2 sats ......
Other countries also deserve to get the tournaments / series / tours played to get the revenue. Don't they ?

Windies finished one tour already.Pakistan about to finish their England's tour
Australian team about to or may be already reached England for limited over series
England playing continuously...
Ab Chand par jakar tournament khelna hai kya?
England seems to be in a better shape when compared to the other countries. Apart from the BCCI and ECB, almost all the other cricket boards are facing financial issues now. Check this:

Ganguly provides his viewpoint regarding IPL 2020.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/29784093/ipl-2020-bcci-president-sourav-ganguly-expecting-record-tv-ratings-30-crowds-later-tourname%3fplatform=amp
I partially agree with him. TV ratings will obviously be very high since that is the only way to watch the matches currently though I don't think 30% audience will be able to fill up the stadiums later on primarily because the vaccine won't be ready by then. What do you guys think?

What is the point in allowing the crowd, even if it is 30%? This is a T20 tournament, and very often the ball will land among the viewers. The ground-staff may clean it every time, but even then it is not going to be 100% secure. If they allow the crowd, then it is going to be a historic blunder.
BTW, anyone watching the 3rd match between England and Pakistan? England will be fielding first, and the news from Pakistan is that 19-year old Haider Ali will make his debut today. Apart from Haider, Sarfaraz Ahmed and Wahab Riaz are also included in the playing XI this time.

currently still its very risky with 30% because no vaccine and peoples are facing some serious troubles due to this if they are just giving on tv its much better and as Gaguly saying this is going to be good for them as more rating more good result for them right now we have US Open which is going without crowed so they also can go like this. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/29784093/ipl-2020-bcci-president-sourav-ganguly-expecting-record-tv-ratings-30-crowds-later-tourname%3fplatform=amp

Can understand the moral point you bringing up but IMO it would be unfair not to look at the complete picture.
IPL is not just another Cricket Tournament for BCCI. For them its multi billion business model and literally lifeline of the Indian cricket. Think about thousands of domestic cricketers who don't get to play in the International arena or IPL, What would happen if BCCI goes bankrupt and can't able to pay them salary for even short term? Situation is tough but shutting down the business is not the right path, the best everyone can do is cut their losses and make best out of it and that's what BCCI is trying to do in this IPL season.

BCCI won't go bankrupt if one season of IPL is missed or will it ?
I am not in favor of shutting down the business either but my question is which tournament is more important for the cricket , the T20 world cup or the IPL and if one is to be chosen between the two because of pandemic, which one should be played ?
As far as T-20 WC is concern.. IMO one of the major reason was CA chickened out and they put their foot down. In their point of view hosting WC was not very economical sustainable in the pandemic as we already knows the ICC gets the lion share in ICC tournament revenue, host country benefits indirectly but in current situation we can't expect that to happen.
I agree IPL doesn't comes close when comparing with the WC event in terms of popularity but we can't deny the fact that IPL is worth way more than all ICC tournament put together. You don't have to believe me just check the auction of media rights.
