Another key batsman, Shivam Dube was also absent in today's match. Hetmyer wasn't available in the RR squad in the last few matches. Has he got a serious injury? He is the only hope for Rajasthan now to fix their batting line-up.

You are probably confounding Shubham Dubey with Shivam Dube as the Shivam Dube is in CSK and not in RR, and I wouldn't call Shubham Dubey key batsman either.

Hetmyer is injured, not sure what exact injury.

Rajasthan Royals now have a 5 loss streak, if they maintain it, they'll be out of the tournament. The result doesn't matter much for Punjab as they are already out of competition, it matters to RR who are going to lose their 2nd position to Sunrisers Hyderabad today if they won and in worst case scenario, get out of tournament without reaching the playoffs if they lost another match and CSK wins. There's even a chance for RCB to come into top 4 if any of these loses their last matches. Except for KKR, no one is safe.

Yesterday's loss was 4th consecutive loss for RR, not 5th. RR has already qualified for play-offs when DC won against LSG.

Exactly. They will be out from tournament. But they still have the second place in the point table. They were playing well in the first games and now they are not doing well. I hope they will continue that performance which they were playing in the first matches. In yesterday match their performance was very bad. They only managed to score only 144 runs and this is not a good target or enough runs to put a pressure on competitive team. They still need to look out on the mistakes and they should resolve them if they want to remain in IPL.

Rajasthan Royals have already participated in the qualifiers, but have not been able to perform well in terms of bowling and batting performance. Since the bottom of the points table Punjab Kings team will win this match I never imagined. And in this match Rajasthan Royals Riyan Parag performed well but could not achieve half century for just few runs. So, if such a performance is done in the next matches, then Rajasthan will not be able to enter the final.
Yesterday's match Punjab Kings performed very well from the beginning they bowled aggressively due to which the batsmen of Rajasthan Royals did not bat that well and were under a lot of pressure losing wickets in the beginning. Responsible batting for Rajasthan Royal, Riyan Parag was dismissed for 48 off 34 balls. Rajasthan Royals set Punjab Kings a target of 148 runs. Set to bat a target of 148 runs, Punjab Kings lost early wickets, but Sam Curran, who batted responsibly for Punjab Kings, did not have much trouble winning with excellent batting. Punjab Kings won by 5 wickets against Rajasthan Royals.

Rajasthan Royals team is on the second position in points table but they lost the Match yesterday from Punjab Kings.
First of all they took first rurn and didn't made a good score to survive in the match they made only 144 runs in total. Which I think not a good target according to the IPL previous matches. They lost 9 wickets.
After them Punjab Kings played their turn and they chased in 18.5 overs. They lost 5 wickets. But overall the match was really interesting and I congratulate the Punjab Kings for their win.

RR have seriously lose the plot here. Never heard of the dude who replaced Buttler and most of their batsmen are playing like crap these days. Ashwin was one of their highest run-scorers which says everything.

Ellis, Curran and Harshal were brilliant with the ball surprisingly. KKR's chances of lifting the cup once again just went up in my opinion.
Rajasthan Royals have lost 4 matches in a row including today's match. Since they have already qualified for the playoffs, their win or loss does not matter. But they will qualify as the second position and since the first and second teams have an extra chance, even if Rajasthan Royals lose a match in the playoffs, there will be no problem as they qualify as the second chance.There may be possibilities. However, their last match will be against Kolkata Knight Riders, although they beat Kolkata Knight Riders by 2 wickets last time, but Rajasthan Royals' current consistent performance makes them more likely to lose against Kolkata Knight Riders.

In the 3rd T20I match between Ireland vs Pakistan, the team Pakistan won by 6 wickets and thus they won this t20 series against Ireland by leading (2-1). Actually it was common that Pakistan is going to team as they are skillful team and stronger than Ireland but when Ireland won the first match, they made people wonder by their performance. Although Pakistan team performance was always good, which was also seen in second and third. Match.. bazar azam out with zero in one match but he made good amount of runs with two half century. In this match, he made 75 and Mohammad Rizwan(56) performance was also impressive enough. Besides saheen afridi impressed everyone with his bowling skill and he got 3 wickets in this 3rd match. But i must say, Ireland improved themselves a lot. Andrew Balbirnie catched attention in 1st match but Lorcan Tucker performed well in the whole match. I think Lorcan Tucker could be man of the match from his team if they could won the match but congratulations Pakistan team for once again prove your legacy

In this match, Babar Azam has made the very good effort as he hit three sixes back to back in the over, it was such a fun tactic and an incredible moment. He had done very good score in the last balls, He made the 50 on 30 balls but after that, he started to hit three sixes back to back and in the over, he hit 4 sixes.  Smiley
On that time, everybody hoped that he would hit 6 sixes on 6 balls but on the fourth ball he could not touch the ball with his bat otherwise that could have gone as a six too.
He scored 75 in only 42 balls with an excellent strike rate. It was due to his batting, the Pakistan team chased the target in the 17th over.
Anyways i thought that he should be the man of the match according to his performance but it was Shaheen Shah Afridi who took 3 wickets and was the player of the match.
Yeh absolutely he has done incredible and I think there is sports journalist who challenge baber Azam to hit three consecutive sixes in single over so if he does he will quite his YouTube channel so I think baber accept his challenge and delivers it properly hahah. Anyway I am really impressed from both baber and Rizwan performance and I think Pakistan should give them his position again so that they will show once again Thier strength it's true that same has some extra aggressive batting style but he unable to delivered some decent innings and that things now may be demolished his opening slot as babar and Rizwan has already history of signficant innings at critical matches. Hope paksitan will continue his form and winning streak against England in order to make Thier team more settle and prepared for world cup trophy lifting

Rajasthan was flying in the sky with their team performance in the first 9 matches. But now they have 4 consecutive losses. RR might suffer in the playoff match for the absence of Jos Buttler. Another key batsman, Shivam Dube was also absent in today's match. Hetmyer wasn't available in the RR squad in the last few matches. Has he got a serious injury? He is the only hope for Rajasthan now to fix their batting line-up.

So Pakistan won this series , Pakistan won this series thanks to Babar Azam and Rizwan. Babar Azam faltered in his second match and could not bat due to which he was dismissed for zero runs . And in this match he performed well and proved that he is a good batsman as well as the captain of the Pakistan team .
But the reward of this Match goes to Shaheen Afridi because he got three wickets deep for Ireland with his great bowling which was the big batsman of Ireland.And A Afridi aslo bowled well and took two wickets.
yeah, both Babar Azam and Rizwan put on a great show. Congrats to Team Pakistan on winning the series! This is their first T20I series win since the T20 World Cup 2022. Pakistan fans are probably thrilled to see the team's strong performance in both batting and bowling, especially after losing the first T20I. Now, fans are hoping to see some top-class play in the World Cup. However, beating Ireland might not be the best test of their abilities.
It is true that in the last match of the T20I series between Ireland and Pakistan, the brilliant performances of Babar Azam and Rezwan, Pakistan's responsible players, won the hearts of the fans. Babar Azam and Rizwan, who are very important players for Pakistan team, scored two fifties by two of the most talked about players of Pakistan team, which made the victory of the last match of this series very easy. However, although the Ireland team lost this series against the Pakistan team, the players of the Ireland team managed to play a competitive game. Every match of this T20 series between Ireland and Pakistan was full of excitement.

Or they could be playing psychological tricks for opponents to underrestimate them in qualifiers, don't quote me on this though  Tongue
Ghanta psychological tricks!

Frustrated cricket from the Royals, I had so much expectation from them in mid tournament and the hype was also there for the right reasons but they are messing up big time and now lost 4 games on a trot. Their last match is against table topper.  Undecided

Are we forgetting Imad Wasim's performance in this match?  It seems that Imad Wasim also has the mood to hit boundaries and give the ending touch on the last but he also wanted Azam Khan would finish the match and for that and for this very purpose he took a single and gave a strike to Azam Khan.

Also, Azam Khan finished the match by hitting a six that was defended by a player from Ireland like a superman. In the last second, he jumped and threw the ball inside the boundary but sadly, his hard work was wasted because he touched ground under the boundary when he had the ball in his hands, and like this, he finished the match.  Smiley

I completely agree that Pakistan victory in this series was largely due to exceptional performances of Babar Azam and Rizwan. Babar Azam comeback in final match was impressive and he proved himself to be skilled batsman and a capable captain. However I also think real hero of match was Shaheen Afridi who took three crucial wickets and dismantled Ireland top order with his outstanding bowling. Afridi performance was instrumental in Pakistan win and he deserves highest praise. Overall it was team effort but Shaheen Shah Afridi bowling was deciding factor in this match.

Also, there is a must for Babar Azam to perform well in the last match of the series. In the New Zealand series, he didn’t play extremely well in all matches but played average, however, when the last match came Babar Azam made the most runs which were around 70,+.
He didn't played upto the mark in the whole series but in the last match of the series, he played very good by making 75 on 42 balls, in which he hit 6 fours and 5 sixes. He was out due to the mission of hitting more boundaries.  Smiley

Most of the time, in yesterday's match Azam Khan was not hitting on the easy balls, but it was good because he had an idea that if he hit then he could be out that is why he waited for the ball to come to him except on the middle and in gap then he hit a shot otherwise he took single or double or drop the ball which was very good but not for all time because sometimes, the game is fixed in a situation where the batsmen must have to hit the sixes or fours and as finisher he must have to hit boundaries in every ball but according to today’s situation, it was very good.

Remember that it was Azam Khan who played just 6 balls and scored 18 runs. Pakistan must be hoping if he can continue this form in the England tour and then in the upcoming T20 World Cup of course.

I am sure that this series was the best series for Azam Khan and he would not forget to buy him easily or hardly because in this, he made the highest score of his career in T20 and now it is 30 but before it was 10.

Also I am talking about the International T20I otherwise in the leagues, he made very good runs and also played very well. Thirty is also less but he's the finisher and he made it in just 10 balls then after that as he gave today's performance which was also very good. This series was very good for Azam Khan because in this he got a chance to show himself as he is an asset for the team.

It is proof that Pakistan team players have performed aggressive batting, Ireland team performed very well. Pakistan team player Babar Azam did not perform well in the second match but he performed the best in the third match.
Before the end of 20 overs, Pakistan team won the match, Babar Azam and Rizwan are the most and their role is the most to win this match. Meanwhile on the bowling side both Shaheen Afridi and Abbas Afridi have performed very well and are exceptional bowlers. 
So Pakistan team has proved that they are strong by winning the last two matches by a wide margin.
Yesterday in 3 rd game of Pakistan vs Ireland team, Ireland team was performed very well in first bat lineup and their target was also very good. Pakistan team won toss and they had good opportunity to take good decision and also they did it. Ireland won team made 178 big runs target in 20 overs by losing 7 wickets. L. Tucker batsman again showed very brilliant effort as he performed in 2 nd game. He scored 73 runs in 41 balls and he hitted thirteen 4s and one 6s. But in bowl lineup, Ireland team did not break the batsman of Pakistan team and Pakistan Batsman easily chased down the target and won game. B.Azam was proved best Batsman in third game and he scored 75 runs in 42 balls ane he hitted six 4s and five 6s. He brilliantly hitted four 6s in one by one and I really liked his effort. S.Afridi got a player of game award due to her good effort and he took down again 3 wickets in 4 overs and 14 runs.

Congratulations Pakistan team


Most of the time, in yesterday's match Azam Khan was not hitting on the easy balls, but it was good because he had an idea that if he hit then he could be out that is why he waited for the ball to come to him except on the middle and in gap then he hit a shot otherwise he took single or double or drop the ball which was very good but not for all time because sometimes, the game is fixed in a situation where the batsmen must have to hit the sixes or fours and as finisher he must have to hit boundaries in every ball but according to today’s situation, it was very good.

RR trying to do reverse RCB, like how tamed down they are in last few matches, if you play with 6-7 RR how do you expect to give good total? Jaiswal is also complete opposite of his form in last season.

Dead rubber this match is but if this continues to be their performance they are out of the competition in play-offs.
These guys need to win at least 1 one of their remaining matches, otherwise, they'll slip into 3rd or maybe 4th position because their NRR is inferior when compared to Chennai and SRH.

Oh! I was just looking at play-offs scenario, completely forgot that being in first two ranks gives second chance at qualifying.

Inning ends at 144-8, tuk-tuk does no good, might as well play aggressive?

Or they could be playing psychological tricks for opponents to underrestimate them in qualifiers, don't quote me on this though  Tongue
