The players of the Ireland team gave an amazing performance in the first match of today's T20 series between Afghanistan and Ireland. The players of the Ireland team have performed brilliantly especially on the bowling side. In today's match, while meeting the target of 150 runs given by the Ireland team, the Afghanistan team was forced to finish the innings losing all the wickets for 111 runs. The Afghanistan team was completely destroyed by the strong bowling of the bowlers in the Ireland team. The balls of the bowlers of the Ireland team became a terror to the batsmen of the Afghanistan team. Now I think Afghanistan team has to prepare hard for the upcoming matches of this series. Ireland's 38-run win over Afghanistan in today's match was truly remarkable.
Ireland batsman played very well and worked hard and struggle and make run and gave hard target and won the match. this is the great achievement for Ireland batsman.Their batsmen set a target of 150 in 20 overs.  Which was not that difficult.  But their bowler made it difficult.  Their bowler took the wickets with hard work and struggle and won the match and the victory.My congratulations to the Ireland team for their win and may they continue to play like this and keep winning matches.Afghanistan's batsmen did not show any effort and struggle and could not perform well and will lose the match.  His luck also did not support him and he would lose the match.They should perform well and play the match with interest.

Finally, wait is over and second last match of Pakistan Super league competition has begun and which is being ongoing among Peshawar Zalmi squad against Islamabad United squad and also this match is being playing on crease. At the beginning of this match, Peshawar Zalmi batter came in crease for Frist batting inning by calling of Islamabad United squad. At this moment, Peshawar Zalmi squad is not lost nay batter wickets and played 6.4 overs and collected 65 scores which seem their performance is going very impressive and fantastic. Starter batter of Peshawar Zalmi squad is so powerful and most favourite batters in PSL which is Babar Azam and Saim Ayub. If both these batter will not wipe out in next few overs then they put a lot of pressure on Islamabad United squad.
After having bat first things are under well control for the Peshawar Zalmi as right now after 12 overs they are having 114 runs with the lost of 1 wicket Saim Ayub is giving his best in this high profile game and 68 from the 36 is one of the best from him in this second eliminator after losing Babar Azam things were looking going to be slow but Mohammad Haris is having also good handle, and he is giving good support to Saim Ayub as they are playing we can expect 200 runs from the Peshawar Zalmi which could be surely good target for the Islamabad United which is now playing their play off game after beating Quetta Gladiator in first eliminator.

Imad Wasim is doing good bowling, but sadly all other bowlers are having good punishment from the Peshawar Zalmi batsmen now in remaining overs can we have 200 and century from the Saim Ayub looking good entertaining.

Things are getting very exciting and things might go both ways right now. Imad Wasim and Haider Ali are still on the crease, they need to score 57 runs from 30 balls, which is very much possible especially when Imad Wasim is on the crease. But lack of wickets is also a concern for Islamabad United. 2 overs from Luke Wood and Khurram Shazad are remaining which may play a big role in deciding the match. 1 over from Aamir Jamal is also remaining. I think these would be the last 5 overs.

I would say if Islamabad United could keep their wickets and play calmly, they would win. But it will not be easy against the bowlers like Luke Wood and Khurram Shazad who have a very good economy in this match.

In yesterday game, Ireland team performed very brilliant effort in 1 st game of Afghanistan vs Ireland. Afghanistan team won toss and they got a opportunity to take first bat or bowl and Afghanistan team chose field first. Ireland team set 149 runs target in 20 overs by losing six wickets, this target was good and to difficult but Ireland bowler effort was outstanding and they stopped Afghanistan batsman for chasing their target. H.Tector scored 56 runs in 34 balls with seven 4s and two 6s. Paul Stirling leader of Ireland was not showed great effort but just a normal runs made. B.White took down 4 wickets in 4 overs with 20 runs and also this player got a player of game award at last of game.

Congratulations Ireland team for this 1 st win.

Amazing performance from Ireland in the first T20I against Afghanistan. They could get to only 149/6, which can be considered as a sub-par total at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. But then, the Irish bowlers had other ideas. Afghanistan top order was wrecked by Josh Little, Barry McCarthy and Mark Adair. And then the lower order and tail was cleaned up by Ben White. We are talking about a bowler who has an average of 109.00 in test matches and 118.00 in ODIs. But in T20Is, his bowling average is 20.50.

I really did not think that Ireland would be able to win so easily with such a small target. I thought Afghanistan would be able to chase down the target successfully. Let's be honest, this is not a big target at all. And for a team like Afghanistan, I do not think this is something unreachable. But Afghanistan could not perform well at all. The top four batsmen for Afghanistan could only get 12 runs and they also used up 23 balls for it. And when the whole innings is about 120 balls, it is hard to recover from something like that. But still, Afghanistan did try to recover. It was just nearly impossible in the end. This was the first match of the three-match series. Afghanistan will have to perform far better in the second match if they want to stay alive in the series.

In today's match Peshawar Zalmi is going to face Islamabad United. Islamabad United team got a great win against Quetta Gladiators in yesterday's match. Islamabad's batsmen and bowlers both performed very well in this match.

The last two matches between Peshawar Zalmi and Islamabad United were very competitive. We saw high scores in both the matches. Peshawar Zalmi set a big target of 202 runs in the first match and Peshawar Zalmi won the match by just 8 runs. And in the second match, Islamabad United set a target of 197 runs, which Islamabad United won by 29 runs.

And so I think there is a high chance of seeing a high score in today's match as well. Peshawar Zalmi team played very well in the group stage. However, if the batsmen do not perform well in today's match, victory against Islamabad United is not possible.
It is very difficult to predict these two teams today, as two matches were played against these two teams twice in the past.  Each team was roughly equal in terms of experience, and the two matches were tied 1-1. So today between these two teams, the team that can perform better will win. So I don't find much difference between these two groups.  Peshawar Zalmi team player Babar Azam performed well in a match due to which Babar Azam's team won easily.  
But the team lost due to Babar Azam not performing well in the next match, so the unique players are less experienced except Babar Azam. So today if Babar Azam's team with Babar Azam performs well from the beginning of the game then surely Peshwar Zalmi team has a chance to win.
The previous two matches between these two teams were very competitive. However, the team that batted first was able to win. Islamabad United won the toss and decided to field in today's match. Batting first, perhaps Islamabad United could have provided a bigger target.

However, Peshawar Zalmi batted very poorly in their last match against Multan Sultans. From the beginning of the innings, the batsmen of Peshawar Zalmi were batting slowly. And in the end they failed to deliver the big target and lost the match as well. If Peshawar Zalmi's batsmen keep batting so slowly in today's match, they will not be able to win.



Peshawar Zalmi players will not make the same mistakes as in the previous match. Two openers of Peshawar Zalmi are batting quite well today. Peshawar Zalmi managed to collect 41 runs in every 4 overs of the power play. Babar Azam remained unbeaten with 15 runs off 12 balls and Saim Ayub on 26 off 12 balls.

If you want to win against Islamabad United, you have to provide a big target. I would say atleast 190+ must be collected by Peshawar Zalmi players if they want to win. The pitch is batting friendly. Peshawar Zalmi will not be in the safe zone even after giving a big target on this pitch. However, if the target is less than 180 I would say Peshawar Zalmi will lose this match.
zalmi Peshawar team played very well and give the target of 185 run .  Islamabad united has just started to play and they have lose  one wicket for six runs in the beginning, which seems to be putting a lot of pressure on their team and if you look at it, the Islamabad united team is looking completely shock out.  And now Agha and Guptill are batting for Islamabad united now they need a good innings. zalmi Peshawar batting side Ayub Played very well and complete his half century and made 73 run only 44 balls excellent inning and M. Haris played also well he made 40 run in 25 balls . Now let's see if Islamabad will be able to fulfill this target.

Peshawar Zalmi vs Islamabad United today match is equally important for both the teams because the team who wins today will go directly to the final and the team who loses will be eliminated so both teams will want to ensure the final game with their best performance. However, it remains to be seen how well the Islamabad United captain can use his decision to win the toss and field first. If Islamabad United bowlers can bowl aggressively from the start and Peshawar Zalmi can get the batsmen out very quickly, the match may be within reach of Islamabad United. Today's match is going to be a high voltage match. Now it is to be seen which team can perform well on the field and which team wins.

We all had high expectations from Babar Azam in today's match but he failed to do that. In such a high voltage match the captain should always bat with a cool head but Babar Azam failed to do that today as a result of which he was dismissed for just 25 runs off 22 balls today. But his other teammate Peshawar Zalmi opening batsman Saim Ayub has been on fire and has already completed his half century. Saim Ayub scored 64 runs off 32 balls in his innings with 4 sixes and 6 fours even his batting strike rate was impressive. Islamabad United have already scored 98 runs for one wicket in 10 overs the way they are scoring runs per over at the moment I think is enough for them.

With nine wickets still in hand and ten overs to go, the Peshawar Zalmi team's batsmen will now try to play with their hands fully open.Siam Ayub in particular will now have to play a critical role to help his team get a big score. Since this is an eliminator match if Peshawar Zalmi can score 210 or 220 runs in the first innings then Islamabad United will be under a lot of pressure when they come to bat.

RCB vs DC coming up! The big finale. Am excited for this one since this particular season has been very entertaining thanks to some great performances from almost all teams in my opinion.

Am expecting DC to win the final though I am supporting RCB. Let's see what happens.
Some appreciation words on Harmanpreet Kaur.

Good batter and a fine tactician as a skipper but one of the shitty leader. Always dodge responsibility when a team fails and throw youngsters under the bus.

Afghanistan's batsmen are under a lot of pressure after losing 3 wickets in the beginning to bat against the target of 150 runs given by Ireland. If Mohammad Ishaq and Ibrahim Zadran can bat responsibly, Afghanistan can win the match against Ireland. Ireland's bowlers have done very well against Afghanistan putting pressure on Afghanistan's batsmen from the start, if they can bowl like this then Ireland can win against Afghanistan.
Ireland outstanding performance in the 1st T20 match against Afghanistan winning by 38 runs a huge margin and lead the series by 1-0. While chasing down a target of 150 runs Afghanistan all out in just 111 runs in the 19th over of the match. Ireland's amazing batting and bowling performance Player of the Match is Benjamin White for his amazing bowling performance picked up 4 important wickets by giving just 20 runs.
Benjamin Whit and Joshua Little both had big impacts in the last match. They took the wickets of Mohammad Nabi and Rashid Khan. Moreover, these two bowlers played an important role in bringing back the top-order batsmen quickly, as a result of which they were able to beat them in the match by a large margin. So far 26 head to head matches have been played between them where Afghanistan won 16 and Ireland 8. Sharjah Cricket Stadium is usually dominated by spinners so Afghanistan had a good chance there but they did not capitalize on that opportunity. Ireland won the match by 38 runs. Afghanistan will certainly not give any new chances in the 2nd match of the series. They still have a lot of chances to win the three-match T20 series.

Before the start of Ireland vs Afghanistan 1st T20 match I predicted that Afghanistan will win the match against Ireland but I was proved wrong as Ireland put up a great performance which led to defeating Afghanistan by 38 runs. However, the Afghanistan team performed very well in the T20 format, but their top batsmen could not bat well against Ireland, due to which the Afghanistan batsmen had to struggle to bat only on a target of 150 runs. If Afghanistan's batsmen could have batted responsibly, they would have easily won the match against Ireland. However, Ireland's bowlers bowled very well by bowling Afghanistan out for just 111 runs. Ireland started the T20 series with a win.
We mostly see in cricket people often try to guess who will win based on how well teams are playing and how good players are. But best thing about cricket is that you can never be sure what will happen. For example in Ireland vs Afghanistan 1st T20 match everyone thought Afghanistan would win because they usually do well in T20 games. However Ireland played really well that day and surprised everyone by winning. We should give credit to Ireland bowlers for stopping Afghanistan batters. By the way match was really exciting.
You are right most people are not right in cricket because before the first t20 match of ireland vs afghanistan i thought that surely afghanistan team is doing well in t20 format they will easily win the t20 match against ireland but i  i was wrong  Afghanistan team batted very badly against Ireland as Afghanistan's top batsmen were bowled out for just 111 runs. Ireland Won by 38 runs in the first T20 match. Congratulations to the Ireland team for a fantastic performance.

It's true that in T20 format it's very much impossible to predict who will win the game. Afghanistan is much better side then Ireland in T20 format and in UAE side winning the toss also wins the match because of dew factor. In yesterday game, Afghanistan won the toss and rightly decided to bowl first and they were given a chaseable target of 149. Afghanistan start was poor as they lost 3 batsmen in first 11 balls of the innings and were never allowed by Irish bowlers to make a come back in the game.  
I was really surprised that Afghanistan was beaten so badly with Ireland. I assumed before the start of the match that Afghanistan will win this match not only this match I thought Afghanistan will win this T20 series. Now the performance of Afghanistan's first T20 match has made me worry a lot. You are right that 149 target was not a big target in T20 format. The main point is that in this match, Afghanistan's bowlers performed fairly well, but Afghanistan's batting line showed completely irresponsible performance. Both their openers failed to perform and not a single top order batsman could play well. And that's why Afghanistan had to lose this match.
