Pakistan on top at the moment, New Zealand have lost 6 wickets in 12th over and total score is just 64. Mark Chapman is the highest run scorer so far from New Zealand so far, he has scored 19 runs. It's very unlikely that New Zealand will be able to complete there 20 overs. Pakistani bowlers have done a decent job by not allowing New Zealander Batsmen to settle and score runs. New Zealand can give a target of 120 max from here and that will be quite easy to chase to batting surface of Rawalpindi.


This is another unexpected game of cricket by the New Zealand team. Yes, we know that there are some new players in the team but i never thought that they would not be able to bat even on this Rawalpindi pitch. They are 6 down for 75 runs and none of the player has scored even a 20 runs at the moment.

I thought that Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah would be among the wicket takers but here Mohammad Amir and Abrar Ahmed are more successful as they both took 2 wickets each. Shaheen Shah Afridi took one wicket and all of the bowlers have good bowling figures.

Unchanged Pakistan ask New Zealand to bat on clear Rawalpindi evening

Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and decided to field first in the second T20 match between New Zealand and Pakistan. Pakistan's bowlers are bowling aggressively from the beginning. Due to the aggressive bowling of Pakistan's bowlers, no New Zealand batsman could bat responsibly. New Zealand's performance is really disappointing. New Zealand team's opener batsmen should have batted more responsibly because they are very strong in T20, New Zealand bats very aggressively but today they batted very badly against Pakistan, it seems that it will be difficult to win the match against Pakistan today.

Pakistan vs New Zealand

The first match between New Zealand and Pakistan was abandoned. Today the two teams met in the second match of the series. Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and decided to field. And Pakistani bowlers are bowling well. New Zealand is under a lot of pressure at the moment.

New Zealand only scored 50 runs in 8.3 overs, but the team has already lost 5 wickets. No top order batsman can bat well. The New Zealand team could not collect an average of 6 runs per over. It will also be very difficult for New Zealand to give a target of more than 100 runs.
Mohammad Amir, Abrar Ahmed and Shaheen Shah Afridi bowled well. Due to the controlled bowling of these three bowlers, the batsmen of New Zealand are not able to bat well. Pakistan will probably have no problem winning today's match.

Pakistan on top at the moment, New Zealand have lost 6 wickets in 12th over and total score is just 64. Mark Chapman is the highest run scorer so far from New Zealand so far, he has scored 19 runs.

Nepal team won the toss and decided to bat first but the Nepali batsmen are not batting well and are under pressure from the start. The Hong Kong bowlers bowled aggressively from the start and the Nepali batsmen were under pressure from the start as they did not bat well. No batsman of Nepal could collect such good runs. Current score of Nepal team is 106 runs for 8 wickets in 18 overs game is going on. Looking at the current score of Nepal team it seems that if they play full over they can score maximum 130 runs. If Hong Kong's bowlers can restrict Nepal's batsmen to 130 runs, if they can bat responsibly, Hong Kong can win against Nepal.
3 rd play off is being played between Hong Kong and Nepal team of ACC Men's Premier Cup series. This game was started and Nepal team won toss and they had a right to choose bat or bowl and Nepal gave a bowling chance to Hong Kong team. Nepal team already batted all overs few minutes ago and Nepal team set 139 runs in 20 overs by losing 8 wickets. Hong Kong team bowling line effort was brilliant and target which was gave by Nepal team also not well and also easily chased if Hong Kong will play batting line without any pressure and hold wickets. D. Airee Batsman effort was greate and he scored 44 runs in 29 balls and he hitted four 4s and three 6s. Opening of Nepal team was not going good both Batsman A.Sheikh and K.Bhurtel was dismissed for few runs and performed very poor. Hong Kong A.Shukla bowler took down 3 wickets in 3 overs with 17 runs. In my experience, Hong Kong will easily chase this game by chasing all target let's see what happen in next.
In this series this was the third play-off game between Nepal and hong Kong. Nepal won the toss and elected batting. Hong Kong bowler out the Nepal batsman in the second ball of the 1 over. This is the first achievement for Hong Kong bowler. Nepal batsman makes 1 run in 1 over and 1 out. This is the bad started for Nepal batsman. Once time again hong Kong bowler out the Nepal batsman in the third ball of the 3 over. This is the second achievement for Hong Kong bowler. Nepal batsmen makes 62 run in 10 over and 4 outs. Nepal batsmen are not working hard and struggle and can not make run. Nepal batsmen makes 139 run in 20 over and 8 outs. This is the target for Hong Kong batsman. This is the easy target for Hong Kong batsman. Hong Kong batsman can complete this target and won the match.
Coming down to bat against the target of 140 runs given by Nepal, the Hong Kong batsman lost one wicket in the beginning but Anshuman Rath batted responsibly. Anshuman Rath batted brilliantly against Nepal. Anshuman Rath is unbeaten with 65 runs from 50 balls. If the Nepalese batsmen could have batted better, they could have given Hong Kong a target of 150 runs and maybe won the match. Nepal's Nepal bowled well enough after giving a target of 140 runs, a big target would have won the match.

Destructive batters gone and my hope for 300+ score almost gone as well. Nitish can play decent, Samad played super quick knock in one of previous matches so there is bit of hope from him, Shahbaz idk, it would be better if they keep swinging bats for public entertainment, they are bound to get good score anyhow.

^^ Just 4 overs of Powerplay and their shoulders are down already lol. Considering the kind of treatment they are getting from Head and Abhishek, I won't blame them much.

Humiliation is going on, still early but feeling bad for them haha. Another 250+ is loading tonight.

----------------------------
Edit
Maybe 300!

Yeah, nevermind that comment, no matter what squad DC would have mushers up, they were to lose just from the 250+ runs target they are going to get, though I would hope for 300+ but seems unlikely as Kuldeep took 2 wickets real quick just now.
Today Sunrisers Hyderabad team is moving towards another record. The team has already broken the highest score record twice. I won't be surprised if Hyderabad collect 300+ today. And with the way Hyderabad's batsmen are batting, it won't be difficult for the team to deliver a 300+ target.

Delhi won the toss and decided to field. I would say it was a big mistake for them. At the end of 9 overs, Hyderabad collected 154 runs. Travis Head has just been dismissed for 89 off 32 balls. Heinrich Klaasen scored an unbeaten 15 off 7 balls. And Abhishek Sharma managed to collect 46 runs off 12 balls. If Klaasen bats as well as in the previous matches, Hyderabad will easily collect 280 runs today.

Although the two openers got off to a great start, Klaasen and Marakram did not bat well today. Heinrich Klaasen was dismissed in the 10th over. He managed to collect 15 runs from 8 balls. Marakram's collection was just 1 run. At the end of 10 overs, Hyderabad collected 158 runs.

Kuldeep Yadav picked up three crucial wickets. Travis head gave 44 runs in 3 overs, Marakram and Abhishek took three wickets. Axar Patel also picked up a wicket with 9 runs in 2 overs. Lalit Yadav gave 41 runs in 2 overs. Mukesh Kumar gave 22 runs in 1 over. Now if the Delhi bowlers can bowl controlled, they might be able to stop the Hyderabad team within 220.

DelhiCapitals won the toss and elected to bowl first, with Sunrise Hyderabad's opener batting brilliantly. Sunrise Hyderabad opener Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head are batting brilliantly the way they are batting, it seems that Sunrise Hyderabad will break the record of highest runs in IPL today. Travis Head scored 78 runs off 25 balls and Abhishek Sharma is unbeaten on 40 runs off 10 balls. Sunrise Hyderabad's current score is 125 for 0 with seven overs to play. Sunrise Hyderabad's current state of play looks like they might score 300 plus runs if they can bat like this.

SRH are smoking some crazy drugs these days since they are the most entertaining side in this season hands down while setting new records along the way. Head and Abhishek already scored close to 100 within 5 freaking overs.

Instead of giving foreigner spot to Nortje, and making Ishant seat, they could give his spot to Ishant and let Shai Hope play, he's a good batter.
Ishant got injured(Not rested) which is why they replaced him with Nortje.

The game for deciding third position and the ticket to ACC emerging cup T20 of the ACC premier Cup was played today between Nepal and Hong Kong China.
Nepal winning the toss elected to bat which turned out to be a bad idea immediately. They lost their first wicket without scoring a single run and the wicket kept falling. Dipendra Singh Airee played a vital role at the end of the game with his 44 run inning to have a decent total of 139.
Hong Kong China chasing a medium target were mostly on the comfortable zone, the 3rd wicket partnership between Anshy Rath and Babar Hayat made it easier for them. Anshy Rath individually made 65 getting the man of the match title.

I feel like Delhi don't know how to choose a squad, Sumit Kumar and Lalit Yadav shouldn't be near playing XI. Instead of giving foreigner spot to Nortje, and making Ishant seat, they could give his spot to Ishant and let Shai Hope play, he's a good batter.

Edit: They have let Prithvi Shaw sit as well, and I would call it stupid decision too.

Heavy rain from the start of this Pakistan vs New Zealand match, until now it is raining heavily. So currently the match is suspended, we have to wait for this game till the rain ends and we have to wait for the decision taken by the cricket board.

The match haven't suspended yet but the chances are they we won't be able to see the play today. For the last two hours, i am seeing this status as the match is delayed by the rain or it is delayed by a wet outfield, not a good sign for the players as well as for the spectators.



Rain delays and then resulting in the wet outfields can be frustrating for both players and spectators during a cricket matches. They can cause disrupt in the flow of the game and also cause delays in play, and sometimes even lead to matches being abandoned. Also note that prolonged waiting times is tough for those who are present at the stadium and also those who are betting on the match and waiting for the action to take place.

The first match between Pakistan and new Zealand abounded with only two balls played. New Zealand won the toss and decided to bat first they lost one quick wicketin the the nd ball of the match then rthe ain came and the match abounded. Shaheen Shah Afridi bowling well picked up one important wicket in the second ball of his first over and bowled out Robinson. If rain doesn't come then this match will be very interesting to watch.
After sitting for a long time the match did not start. In this match I thought Pakistan will win the match. Because their squad was strong whereas the New Zealand squad seems new to me. There was a dearth of good players and familiar faces. But even if the first match was no result, we can expect a bit better in the second match. Although T20 games are difficult to predict, Pakistan will try to give their best to win. Before the match started we saw that there was a fall of a wicket. Shaheen Afridi gets 1 wicket after only 2 balls. I think  New Zealand team could not have gone very far. Pakistan's squad, on the other hand, has all the familiar faces from that team. I think Pakistan will easily win the series.
Today is second T20 Match will be played after an hour and i hope today we see a full interesting match between both team. in first match we only possible 5 balls than heavy rain started and match is abounded without any results. in today Shaheen shah afridi bowling spell is important for Pakistan team if they will this match. new Zealand is also a strong team and have ability to defeat Pakistan. I think if Pakistan bowl well today ans restricted New Zealand under 160 runs than Pakistan have good chances to win this match against New Zealand. if new Zealand win the toss than they will looking to score a huge target and put pressure on Pakistani batters.

2nd T20 Pakistan vs New Zealand

The New Zealand team has toured Pakistan to play a series of five T20 matches against Pakistan. Meanwhile, the first T20 match between New Zealand and Pakistan was played at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, but the match was played in only two balls due to rain.After two balls, the match was abandoned due to rain. Today also the second T20 match between Pakistan and New Zealand will start at the same stadium i.e. Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Pakistan.If the weather is good today, today's match may be possible as the previous match was abandoned due to rain due to bad weather. In the first T20 match, we were excited to see Pakistan's bowlers bowl as they had Mohammad Amir joining his side after a long time. Many Pakistani fans were eager to watch Md Amir's bowling but the match was eventually declared abandoned. Maybe in today's match we will see the best bowling figure of Pakistani bowlers against New Zealand team.

If the Chennai Super Kings team is forced to put up a good bowling performance then there is definitely a chance to win. Because those who performed well at the right time but yesterday in this match they performed very poorly. Only Moeen Ali has done good bowling performance and all other players have performed very poorly. Mostafizur Rahman, in particular, picked up a wicket as the Chennai Super Kings proved unable to put any pressure on the bowling side. Due to which Chennai Super Kings team had to lose to Lucknow Super Giants team.
I agree with you. In yesterday's match, the performance of the bowlers was very worse than the batsmen of Chennai Super Kings. If the bowlers of Chennai Super Kings could have bowled aggressively from the beginning, then the Super Giants batsmen would have been under a lot of pressure. Going into bat against a target of 177 runs given by Chennai Super Kings, the Super Giants opener batted brilliantly and their responsible batting did not have much trouble to win. Super Giants won by 8 wickets against Chennai Super Kings. If the Chennai Super Kings bowlers could have bowled aggressively from the start then the outcome of the match could have been different.
Although, Not only Chennai Super Kings is strong but also Lucknow Super Giants is too strong. 177 runs wasn't a big score to win for LSG. For that, they easily reached victory. Yes, the opening batsman played brilliantly, and their opening partnership gave the winning figure. Lucknow Super Giants players as like real Jinns. The names of Quinton de Kock, and KL Rahul are really Jinns. For their performance, the team won the match. Cricket is a game where no one shouldn't escape any single ball.

We cannot call a target of 177 runs on this pitch a big target. At least around 200 should have been collected. Because we see batting friendly pitch in almost every match of IPL. Scoring 200+ runs on these pitches is not a difficult task.
However, due to the poor performance of Chennai's top order batsmen, they could not provide a big target. Apart from Dhoni, no other batsman in the squad can bat at a good strike rate. Apart from the batsmen's bad batting, Chennai's bowlers can't do well either. If the bowlers could have bowled with some control, the match would have been competitive. LSG team could not have won the match so easily.

Does anyone else think that Dhoni should be in a little earlier?

I get that he is a finisher and he did his job well. But at the stage when CSK was 90/5, Dhoni could have come in and scored much more quickly. Because we saw that the track was not as bad as it looked earlier. And if he was in earlier I think the score could have been bigger.

What I am trying to say is that Dhoni has saved India from similar situations like that a lot of times in the past and also in his prime. But the thing is the score was not that bad. The bowlers of CSK did not do a good enough job as well. The performance from LSG was really good by the way. The way they attacked from the start and finished comfortably, definitely is going to give them a lot of confidence as well. Great win for LSG after two losses.
Here is another argument.

Dhoni is 42 yo wicketkeeper batsman. Let's say he comes as early as 4-5 down, so most of the time after 12 or 14 overs and in case of some collapse then maybe in between 8-12 overs. That's a period where spinners operate and the field is spread, you have to rotate the strike and even try for doubles (don't forget he's old and WK). Also, he used to be good against spinner but not anymore, as far as hitting 6s is concerned.
