Islamabad United did not perform well batting in the beginning, they started well from the opening batsman but later batsmen got out under bowling pressure. Islamabad United will never win with such a bad performance. Because already. Quetta Gladiator bowling performance has been very good due to which Islamabad United have collected 118 runs from 17 balls so far. If Islamabad United can score 150 runs today, the game will surely be full of competition between the two teams.
The match between Lahore and Multan is in last stage and the match is very tough. 17 runs are required in 10 balls for Multan. Rizwan perform betting very good and attained 82 runs. Lahore bet first and target 166 runs. Now 5 players of Multan Sultan are out and 146 runs has been scored by them. Iftekhar Ahmad and David are betting now and both players are good so they can the match.
Don't know what happens with 2 times champions. Haris Rauf's performance after BBL was not good and according to sources, at this time, this is a chance where PCB can cancel his contract. Maybe he can't go outside of the country to play any league but it will not happen because this is a part of the game to go out of form but we can hope that he will back in his performance.
He is the player who tried to do some good for his team but always he can't do it. However, he is a speed gun. At previous matches, his speed and Shaheen's speed had some issues both couldn't be cross 150 but now both are back in order in speed. Shaheen is good while Haris Rauf takes some time to back in order hopes before the World Cup his issues will clear and come back in form.
A thrilling win for Afghanistan, a consolidatory too. Sri Lanka won the only test, clean swiped ODIs and was about to clean swipe the T20 too.
It was a high scoring innings from Afghanistan with Hazaratulla and Rahmanulla opening the batting with a good partnership. Sri Lanka nearly chased it but the retirement due to injury to Pathum Nissanka was a bad luck for them. He had scored 60 off 30 before voluntarily leaving the crease.
Anyway, Sri Lanka won't be disappointed as they had shown full dominance over the Afghan team and Afghan have reasons for their decreasing performance.
New Zealand vs Australia second T20 match will be played tomorrow New Zealand team batted very well in the first match but lost the first T20 match against Australia. In the second match, New Zealand must try to bat and bowl better. In the first match, the bowling was a little worse than the batting of the New Zealand team, due to which Australia won the first T20 match. Second T20 match If the New Zealand team can maintain their batting consistency and make bowling a little more positive, then maybe they can get against can win Australia in the second T20 match. However, the Australian team has been in great form since the start of the 2023 World Cup and has performed strongly in every game. So it is expected that in the second T20 match, the match against New Zealand will definitely be a tight fight.
Today, the Afghanistan team managed to win because of their good performance till the end keeping the wicket under control. I was hopeful for the Afghanistan team as they only lost in consecutive ODIs and T20Is but in the third T20I Afghanistan team gave a befitting reply. The opening two batsmen, Hazratullah and Gurbaz, who performed well in the power play, played a major role in today's victory. Did very well to control the wicket from the start till the last. And bowled well but Sri Lankan team lost today, tried hard to win but couldn't.
No never No third T20 match between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan was not held today This match was held yesterday i.e. February twenty one. Afghanistan not only lost the ODI series but also lost the Test series and T20I series but they managed to win the third T20I match against Sri Lanka. In the third T20 match every batsman of Afghanistan looked patient and batted intelligently as a result of which Afghanistan team managed to score 206 runs in this match. Still the batsmen of the Sri Lankan team tried their best to chase this run maybe with a little more heard hitting batting they would have been able to win the match. 
Team AFG is getting better and better in the white ball cricket, today another exciting last over win for them just by 3 runs. They are pretty equipped to face the big team in the T20 WC for sure. Even though SL won the series by 2-1, AFG came very close in the first match too and lost only by 4 runs so they will toom all the positive and will start preparing their WC journey.
Yes Afghanistan team is improving day by day.The Afghanistan team is known more for its bowling than its batting. Rashid Khan Mujibur Rahman of Afghanistan they are world class spin bowler maybe Rashid Khan is the number one leg spin bowler in the world. In this series between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan, Rashid Khan was not included in the Afghanistan team for which the Afghanistan team was quite weak. Afghanistan's batting and bowling performance in the third T20 against Sri Lanka boosted their confidence as they managed to win at least one match.
IPL 2024 schedule is partially out and it looks like it's CSK vs RCB weirdly instead of CSK vs GT on March 22 which is the opening match. Excited to watch Dhoni vs Kohli once again and the venue is somewhere in India.
But again these are blips when looking at the big picture because when the time comes, both bowling lineups will come on top with an excellent bowling performance and bamboozle the opposition team.
Yup. The other teams need to give it everything in order to put up a good fight against these beasts in the T20 WC. 
Sri Lanka collected 143 runs in 14 overs. The team is collecting more than 10 runs per over. And since Sri Lanka have lost just 3 wickets, Sri Lanka are more likely to win so far. Pathum Nissanka was dismissed for 60 off 30 balls. Almost every batsman in the Sri Lankan squad is in good form. So even if the target is big, they might be able to win.
Afghanistan captain Ibrahim Zadran has used 6 of his bowlers. But we don't see any bowler bowling better than him. If this continues, Sri Lanka will win the series 3-0.
Afghanistan team improved a lot in their batting today but I think Sri Lanka still have a chance to win this match. The Sri Lankan team currently needs 40 runs from 14 balls and they still have five wickets to spare. Kushal Mendis and Dasun Shanaka are batting at the crease at the moment. If the Sri Lankan team's opening batsman Pathum Nissanka had not retired hard, maybe this match could have taken another turn. Kushal Mendis has just completed his half century, he will look to open his arms from now on, maybe we will finally see a dramatic victory in this match.Afghanistan captain Ibrahim Zadran has used 6 of his bowlers. But we don't see any bowler bowling better than him. If this continues, Sri Lanka will win the series 3-0.
I would not say that the performance of the Afghanistan bowlers was poor. They tried their best to bowl controlled. Even then the bowlers gave away a lot of runs. And it is very difficult for the bowlers to bowl controlled on such a batting friendly pitch.
Sri Lankan bowlers gave 21 extra runs. And that's why I think the team has fallen behind. Afghanistan's bowlers gave only 8 extra runs. 6 wides and one no ball by the Afghanistan bowlers. On the other hand, the Sri Lankan bowlers bowled 11 wides. Mohammad Nabi took two wickets with 35 runs in 4 overs.
Sri Lanka collected 143 runs in 14 overs. The team is collecting more than 10 runs per over. And since Sri Lanka have lost just 3 wickets, Sri Lanka are more likely to win so far.

The third T20 match which was played at Dambulla was finally won by the Afghanistan team. Though it was a close 3 run victory but a victory is victory and Afghanistan team can celebrate this win.
In this match, Rahmanullah Gurbaz made 73 runs in 43 balls. He was the man of the match because of his good batting performance. From Sri lankan team we had Pathum Nissanka who was retired hurt on 60 while Kamindu Mendis remained not out at 65 runs. The strange thing is that Srilankan team were unable to chase this score even though I thought that they tried their best.
Mohammad Nabi took 2 wickets while Fareed Ahmad, Noor Ahmad and Qais Ahmad took one wicket each. This was the first and only victory by the Afghanistan team. They lost 3 one days matches and the first two T20 matches also. But luck favors them this time and they were able to beat Srilanka in the last match of theT20 series.

I'm hearing Shami has been ruled out of IPL 2024, if it's real news then it's mighty blow to Titans and this lowers their probability to win trophy significantly, or should I say to get into qualifiers.
Hardik gone, Inexperienced captain (i.e, Gill) and now Shami.

Hasaranga slams umpire over non-no-ball call
As a sportsman, Hasaranaga should always be polite and treat others well.
Umpires should definitely take decisions with caution. But Hasaranga should not have personally attacked the umpire if he made a mistake. We often see such extreme behavior from Sri Lankan players. ICC should be more strict.
Quote
Sri Lanka's T20I captain Wanindu Hasaranga has said outright that umpire Lyndon Hannibal should find another job, after Hannibal had deemed a high full toss as a legal delivery during a tense final over in the third T20I against Afghanistan in Dambulla.
Quote
Hasaranga's scathing comments came after Hannibal, the square-leg umpire, did not call a no-ball when a Wafadar Momand delivery passed batter Kamindu Mendis well above waist height without pitching. Kamindu had shuffled down the pitch, but the delivery nevertheless would have likely arrived higher than his waist had he been standing upright at the popping crease. This would constitute a no-ball as per the ICC's playing conditions.

I agree with you that ICC should be more strict with Sri Lankan players. Many times in the past we have seen Sri Lankan players misbehaving with the opposition players. But we considered it part of the game. But their bad behavior is increasing day by day. They are now misbehaving with the umpire as well. Now if the ICC and the Sri Lankan board are not strict then the Sri Lankan players will become more reckless. This is not good for cricket. We know cricket as gentleman's game. So Sri Lankan players should avoid such bad behavior.

What a crazy match! Australia and New Zealand ripped into each other and produced a sensational encounter with the Aussies ending up on the winning side and the Kiwis ending up on the losing side as usual.
Tim David is remarkably consistent these days which is amazing news for the MI since he most probably could be their key player in the upcoming season.
Just before the World Cup, the batting lineup from both teams looked so dangerous but the bowling was pedestrian. Tim David is remarkably consistent these days which is amazing news for the MI since he most probably could be their key player in the upcoming season.
But again these are blips when looking at the big picture because when the time comes, both bowling lineups will come on top with an excellent bowling performance and bamboozle the opposition team.

I felt while watching this game that a target of 200 wouldn't be defendable for the Kiwis as the pitch was just flat and good for batting. Conway started very late and if he had not wasted 10 odd balls and played the way Rachin did then they could have got 250 runs on the scoreboard. For Australia Mitchell Marsh was the key although I had a feeling that Maxwell would be the reason for Australia to win, he wasn't. Big scoring games are always worthy of watching in T20 and that is what happened between these two teams.

Against Sri Lanka, Afghanistan's batsmen did brilliantly to avoid the whitewash, giving Sri Lanka a target of 210 runs in the allotted 20 overs. Batting with a target of 210 runs, Sri Lankan opener Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis got off to a great start but Kusal Mendis was out after scoring only 16 runs. Kamindu Mendis batted brilliantly but in the end could not win the team lost by just three runs against Afghanistan. The last over was very exciting as 19 runs were required in an over Sri Lankan batsmen managed to score 15 runs. Due to which three runs were lost against Afghanistan, congratulations to the Afghanistan team.

7 th game of PSL series was already ended and this game was held between Lahore Qalandar team and Multan Sultan team. Lahore Qalandar team won toss and they decided wrong decision to take first bat. Lahore Qalandar team set 166 runs target by losing 5 wickets and F.Zaman preformed well and scores 41 runs in 36 balls with two 4s and two 6s. R.Dussen also made 54 runs in 37 balls with four 4s and two 6s. But Lahore Qalandar lost this game by 5 wickets and one over. Multan Sultan team chased down all target and won this game and in this game, M Rizwan got a player of game award due to this batting effort. Multan Sultan team won this match and promote into 1 st slot.
I also thought the 7th game of the PSL series between Lahore Qalandar and Multan Sultan was very exciting. Lahore Qalandar chose to bat first which might have looked like a bad idea at first. But they played well especially Fakhar Zaman and Dussen. However Multan Sultan did a great job chasing the score and Muhammad Rizwan excellent batting helped them to win and become the top team. That was really and interesting match. Jump to:
