I watched only the last 6 overs. Ideally, Kiwis should win this game easily, but everything could change in a couple of overs. In the shorter format, every team can ruin their chances in short time.
Not following the match but seems like our World cup runner up team lost 2 wickets already. I have no interest in this T20. So, I do not bother much about it.

Okay so its official they can't touch 200 runs mark. they are satisfy with singles in the 17th over and Southee has one more over left.  Lips sealed
174 for 4 is the final score.
I almost forgot about this series and the T20. I was too much into Test cricket especially in the Ashes :-P

Anyway, for the team like NZ, this should not be hard job to chase. I have not seen the Sri Lankan innings. They left 6 wickets but still they are short in scoring run. This is unusual.

This is a mid range score and any team can win this match. A good partnership between Guptill and any of the top order batsmen can easily make the game in favor of NZ.  Srilanka will be relying on Maligna to take early wickets specially Guptill. I think first five overs of NZ will tell us where this match is heading.

Edit: Malinga strikes.

Srilanka has got the good and reasonable start in first T20. It now depend upon them to make a big total for the NZ to chase.

Just for the records, the last T20 which are played here in Pallekele, Aussie score 263/3 which is the 2nd highest score in T20. This means Srilanka have to make a very big score on this batting wicket.

Don't know if SL could make big score on this pitch. 23 ball left and they still need 69 runs to reach 200. Kusal Mendis is out as well, so 200 looking tough.

SL opted to bat first. Both the team is playing under two bowlers Malinga and Southee. I think both teams will perform good, the pitch is in favor of batsman. The match is getting delayed for raining.

It has started now. Lockie Ferguson is not playing due to a thumb injury. I just hope that it is not serious. The match is taking place in the city of Kandy, which is a bit far away from Colombo. Nice to see provincial cities being given their due. Anyway, so far so good for Sri Lanka. Kusal Mendis and Kusal Perera have given them a slow, but solid start. There is no Boult/Ferguson, so they should be looking for a target in excess of 180.

Sri Lanka had a good start. 50 for 1 in 6th over. It's good to see Sri Lankan batsmen delivering. Whatever the results be, This is going to be an important series for personal record of Malinga. And this record would be a good trophy for one of the greatest pace bowler of our times.

This was a nasty loss since the odds were mere 1.06 and you went on to wage a huge bet for that, even i made those silly mistakes in the past thinking that it was a safe bet but when it comes to gambling nothing is safe as you can expect an upset anytime and that is the beauty of sporting events and so is the reason people usually love to wage a bet on underdogs.
I agree, but live betting is better in comparison. If you watched that match live, I doubt you would have placed a bet on England so early after watching their wickets fall quickly thanks to some excellent bowling spells by the Sri Lankans.

Is there anyone who have placed a bet on the T20 match between Finland and Spain. Already one match has got over, in the first match Finland has registered its win and leads the series. Now in the second T20 low target than the first match is being set by Finland. This time the target is just 135 which can be easily reached if a strong partnership is developed by the middle order players.
Very few people risk betting on these newbie teams due to obvious reasons and the match that you are referring to went to Spain and the series is a draw. The 3rd match is underway and I think Finland might post something close to 160 in this one.
As mentioned it was a 158 at the end of twenty overs. Seems a target that is hard for Spain to chase, and this match looks to be a winning for Finland. Already in the previous matches Spain struggled while chasing, and important thing in this tournament is the winning of the toss. On the three matches it is Finland to win the toss, and everytime they've chosed to bat first.

Spain played well in this match and manage to chase the score easily with 4 wickets remaining and 2 balls to spare . Though the start was not good as expected but middle order helped the spain to make a comeback in this match and helped them to win the match. Panchal 71 not out helped them to register their win.

Okay seems like in the India vs New Zealand match I lost 0.018BTC this is when I decided to stop gambling. Have a look at the betting history. The list is more long by the way. Notice there are no win.
If i have a few consecutive loss then i usually take a long break before i find a good match to wage a bet, majority of the odds were more than 2 and you still kept on taking risk and i will never take such risk like you as i do not have that much coins to spare all the time Cheesy.

But this one is the perfect example of when you think a team is going to have a sure win but end up losing. Notice the odd for England was only 1.06 which means England were almost winning and from there, they lost the match.

If I am not wrong, cricket became the no.1 sport in Afghanistan just 10 years ago. It is really surprising, because the Afghanistan national cricket team was formed only in 1995. Until the 1980s, cricket was virtually unknown there and football was the most popular sport. It gained popularity during the 90s and the first decade of 21st century. Also, earlier cricket was confined only to the Pashtun ethnic group (40% of the population). But now every group is playing it, including Tajiks, Hazaras, Uzbeks and Aimaks.
Good to hear. Afghanistan have a ton of problems to tackle which is why them excelling in such major sports is a big plus point for them. I am a fan of SRH personally and was impressed by Rashid Khan and Nabi initially.

After watching them almost defeat several big teams like India and Pakistan in the World Cup, I understood that these guys want to make it big in the world of Cricket. The biggest change that they needed to make was replacing the captain(Now its Rashid) which is a positive one.

I don't know whether they'll get any television viewership in Zimbabwe. But Bangladesh and Afghanistan are cricket crazy nations, and most of the people there will be glued to the TV set whenever their national teams play. IMO, they should replace Zimbabwe with Nepal for the tri-series. Nepal is another cricket crazy nation in South Asia.
I have always known that Bangladesh was a cricket crazy nation, but never knew that it was the same in Afghanistan too which is quite surprising to me. It makes sense why some amazing players like Rashid and Nabi came from this country.

Bangladesh have gradually improved over the years, but Afghanistan is not far behind. If they continue producing players like the ones I mentioned above, they could overtake Bangladesh in the future.

ICC has suspended the membership of Zimbabwe, and therefore the matches involving them will not be having the status as T20Is. They will be treated like ordinary T20 matches without international status. BTW, I am very doubtful whether the series will go forward as planned. Without the ICC funding, Zimbabwe Board may not be able to afford the player salaries and other expenses.
Who watches their matches anyway? Teams like Zimbabwe have been irrelevant for a long period of time now and I completely understand why ICC revoked their status recently. They had some great players in the past, but that was a long time ago.

The current Zimbabwe players who still wish to earn from Cricket will probably relocate to some other country where there are plenty of opportunities in this area.

As far as I recall, I think the time I placed the bet for India when they were in better position in the match. The odd was not much too for them. I will look for the betting history and will try to find the exact amount and the odd. It was after then, New Zealand started to play good and won the match.

In the start of the game India did play well and NZ were losing wickets and not being able to make runs but the second day everything changed when wickets started falling from the start of the game. I feel that weather also was a factor which ruined the game else if they had to finish the game the same day, they may have performed better.

WC is over and we have forgotten already what exactly happen in World cup matches.  Wink
Just to recall again, It was India who lost to England to allow NZ reaches the  Semi's  Smiley

Even if this series happen, there wont be any audience and therefore ICC will not get any big sponsorship.  ICC only promotes the tournaments which can make them big money.
