Both of these teams play always some thrilling matches that we could always enjoy and also the way the Sri Lankan bowler dragged them to the last over was amazing as if we see the whole scenario in the t20 now the target they have given today was not too much, 190 in t20 now a days are a normal target and an average team have now the ability to chase down that target but if we talking about some good teams like South Africa, India etc so they can easily chase that.
What a win for Zimbabwe
~snip~ Sikandar Raza fall for just 8 runs but good hittng in the end from Jongwe and Madande. I don't remember when Zimbabwe last time won a match against a strong team. Now series is levelled 1-1 and the last match will be crucial for both teams.
It was indeed a great win for Zimbabwe. Luke Jongwe got man of the match award as he has contributed with his bowling and perfect finishing. Craig Ervine has the main contribution to the victory. Anyway, I have decided to place a bet on Zimbabwe for the last T20 match. The odds is a bit high (3.85×) for them, but they are playing well against Sri Lanka. ~snip~ Sikandar Raza fall for just 8 runs but good hittng in the end from Jongwe and Madande. I don't remember when Zimbabwe last time won a match against a strong team. Now series is levelled 1-1 and the last match will be crucial for both teams.
Sri Lanka are playing like crap at the moment. They are self-destructing since they already lost 3 wickets for 20 runs which is embarassing considering the fact that their opponent is Zimbabwe.
Looks like the underdog could end up winning the second T-20 as long as they continue putting pressure on the Lankans in this manner.
Although Sri Lanka were under a lot of pressure early on but Angela Mathews and Asalanka are trying to increase the score for Sri Lanka. However, Sri Lanka is trying to play a bit more aggressively after 10 overs. So far 78 runs for the loss of 4 wickets in 13 overs without the fall of any more wickets. But with Angela Mathews facing the number of balls in a defensive mood, it's time for her to play an aggressive innings. Angela Mathews remains unbeaten on 20 off 32 balls while Asalanka remains unbeaten on 35 off 27 balls.Looks like the underdog could end up winning the second T-20 as long as they continue putting pressure on the Lankans in this manner.
What a win for Zimbabwe
20 runs were required in last over. Two 6s and One 4 from Jongwe and a six from Madande steal the victory from Sri Lanka side. Zimbabwe won the match by 4 wickets.
I taught they will have full dominance over a series against Zimbabwe but Zimbabwean side proved me wrong because they finally won the match and level the series. If we have a look at score board then first sirilankan side top order were failed before adding any significant contribution later some middle order batter quality innings help them to score such Target but to be honest it's not enough Target to defend. Anyway later while defending target thier bowling strength were not up to the mark which allow Zimbabwean former captain Ervin to settle down build partnership and release as much as possible pressure. No doubt after his dismissal sirilankan got them but unable to hold it long and lose his second match of the series 20 runs were required in last over. Two 6s and One 4 from Jongwe and a six from Madande steal the victory from Sri Lanka side. Zimbabwe won the match by 4 wickets.
Today in the second T20 match against Sri Lanka, the players of Zimbabwe have given a great batting performance. In the first innings, Sri Lanka scored 173 runs for the loss of 6 wickets and set a target of 174 runs to the Zimbabwean team. Although 173 runs in a T20 match is a very big score, but today Zimbabwe won the match brilliantly by breaking this big score by 178 runs. In today's match Zimbabwe team batsman Craig Ervine showed great batting and impressed the crowd, he scored 70 runs off 54 balls only to win the team. Craig Ervine, the batsman of Zimbabwe team, has to make a name for himself, he won today's match and brought Zimbabwe to level the third T20 series game, now the result is 1-1. However, Zimbabwe managed to win the match with one ball to spare against Sri Lanka and walked away with a remarkable 4-wicket win.

Perth Scorchers scored 197 runs for four wickets in the stipulated over. Laurie Evans played a great innings of 72 runs off 34 balls for Perth Scorchers. In the second innings, the score of the Sydney Sixers team is 98/1 in 11 overs chasing the target of 198 runs. Daniel Hughes is already on the pitch with a 27-ball half-century, the Sixers still need 100 off 54 balls. Today's match is very important for both teams as the winner of the second qualifier today will face Brisbane Heat and the loser will face Adelaide Strikers in the knockout match.
The match of Central Districts vs Auckland, was won by Central Districts with 15 runs, this team played very well, and this type of play gave them a chance to then to qualify for the Semi-Final, I think whenever they win the toss so they should need to take a bat first because their batting is very wonderful and the bowling is also good but not like batting.
Dane Cleaver the vice-captain had almost just completed his century but he missed it by 13 runs, he could have made it if the innings had not finished, he was not out but the innings gave a problem of missing it.
This match was won by Central Districts by 15 runs and as expected, the Dane Cleaver was the player of this match. Scoring at 177 strike rate was enough for the Central Districts to make such a big score and then won the match at the end.
In this match of Auckland and Central Districts, Doug Bracewell took three wickets of one of the best batsmen and he should have taken three wickets because he did the first over and the player who did the first over is always the best player who deserves to do the first over and he should pick a wicket in the first over, and he also picked it on the very first over, very last second ball, and on the last ball. He went to the hat trick ball but cannot do it. He gave 27 runs to other team who was playing against them.
Doug Bracewell and Bevan Small are the players who led the match to the win due to their bowling. These two are the bowlers who picked three wickets but the taking wickets starting with Doug Bracewell, and from watching this Bevan Small also picked three wickets. Bevan Small gave 25 runs while Doug Bracewell gave two more runs with him. The first three wickets were picked by Doug Bracewell and the other fourth, fifth, and seventh wickets were picked by the second baller. These two are the bowlers who played wonderfully in this match.
The Sri Lankan team has performed very well, but the number of runs is a huge target for the Zimbabwean team. Today, the Zimbabwean team has a chance to win, as the power play has performed well so far. So far the Zimbabwean team has scored 121 runs for 4 wickets in 16 overs. Sikandar Raja of Zimbabwe team did not perform well today, if he could have performed well then the chances of winning could have been very quick.
The game is still in progress and Zimbabwe need 20 runs to win in last over with 4 wickets still left. Looks a difficult task at the moment but anything can happen in cricket specially in T20 format. Craig Ervine scored 70 runs and now its upto Luke Jongwe and Clive Madande to win the game for there side. It will be a huge win if Zimbabwe manage to win this contest.
In the second match of the T20 series between Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka, the Sri Lanka team batted first and set a target of 174 runs to the Zimbabwe team. Meeting the target of 174 runs is very difficult for the Zimbabwean team. The Zimbabwean team has been in crisis lately in terms of good performances. However, in today's match, the bowlers of the Zimbabwe team managed to perform a bit better at the beginning of the bowling but failed to sustain their performance later. If the bowlers of the Zimbabwean team could have maintained their performance throughout the innings, then the bowlers of the Zimbabwean team could have stopped the innings of the Sri Lankan team by a small score.
Now the Zimbabwe team is batting in the second innings game. The Zimbabwean team has so far collected 130 runs with the loss of 4 wickets in 16.3 overs. Now if the batsmen of the Zimbabwe team can bat a little better then the Zimbabwe team will have a chance to turn around. Now let's see how much role the batsmen of the Zimbabwe team can play in today's match with the aim of finally winning.

I don't think Zimbabwe will win by batting at such a big target. Had the target been below 160, the match would have been competitive. But 173 runs is a big enough target. And since the performance of Zimbabwean batsmen is very erratic, it is very difficult for Zimbabwe to score 174 runs in this match. Also now Zimbabwe's batting is very slow. At the end of 6 overs, Zimbabwe collected only 31 runs and lost one wicket. If Craig Ervine and SIkandar Raza play well, perhaps Zimbabwe will be able to collect big. Ervine is now unbeaten with 14 runs from 19 balls.
Yes, the target is very high for a team like Zimbabwe which is very weak against the Sri Lankan team. The team started with a very slow rate and it will be hard to cover 173 runs in 20 overs but I think they first stood on the wicket and in the last 10 overs they will start hitting be this is their strategy. Whatever the strategy the aim is to win the match and there is no such sign of their winning. Half of the overs were done and they did not cross the century and now the runs are 91 in 12 overs. Now they have 38 balls left and 78 which is very tough for the team but maybe things will change and they may be chasing the target in these overs. legendary

Asalanka and Mathews showcased their skills in the match. Asalanka scored 69 runs off 39 balls, while Mathews unbeaten with 66 runs off 51 balls. Angelo Mathews played a crucial innings, lifting Sri Lanka to a solid total. Mathews has been a key player in the last matches and continued to carry the team's burden today. Without the impressive performances from Asalanka and Mathews, Sri Lanka might have struggled to reach even 100 runs.
Their comeback innings has set up Sri Lanka well with a total of 173/6, which should be sufficient to confirm the series tonight.
Sri Lanka team has given a big target of 174 runs today. Despite the poor performance of the top order players, they managed to collect 173 runs. Asalanka played an excellent innings of 69 runs off 39 balls. Mathews also collected 66 runs off 51 balls. Due to the responsible batting of these two batsmen, Sri Lanka has been able to provide a big target. Sri Lanka lost 4 of their batsmen to collect only 27 runs. Sri Lanka collected 118 runs from Mathews-Asalanka pair. It is very unlikely that Zimbabwe will win this big target. But the pitch is batting friendly. If the batsmen bat responsibly and stay at the crease, the match will be competitive.

Sri Lanka are playing very well and have scored 145 runs for the loss of 4 wickets in 17 overs. This time P nissanka and K perera did not perform well with the bat and were dismissed for zero runs. Now C Asalanka and Mathews are playing batting. Asalanka are playing well he made 69 run in just 38 balls they complete hafl century If Asalanka continues to perform like this, I hope he can give a target of 170 run plus which will be a very tough target for Zimbabwe.Zimbabwe have few good talented players, but sadly they are not grooming as match winner which is the problem for them, and mostly they started well but have bad result near the end which is hurting them in last few months they need to improve their structure which helps them for having better and sensible cricket in last overs.
Edit: Zimbabwe started their inning on positive note, and we have 10 runs from 15 balls, let's watch what happen in coming overs.

ZIM vs SL, 2nd T20 will start shortly. I think ZIM played very well in their 1st T20 after worst performance in recent matches. Due to Sikandar Raza contribution in batting and bowling both sector, ZIM did impressive comeback in last T20 and made SL team in trouble who are so stronger in field. But anyhow SL won. With having Sikandar Raza, craig Ervine, Sean Williams, this time ZIM has a possibility to win cause they were very close to win in the last match. So lets see what will be the result
So far the Zimbabwean team has good prospects. If they manage to restrict Sri Lanka to 160 runs then a chance can be created for the Zimbabwean team. Currently on the pitch, Charith Asalanka and Angelo Mathews both have already keep on a partnership of 97 runs. Moreover, there are still 4 overs left. The situation of the game will change in these four overs. In this moment 50-70 chance even though Sri Lanka ahead in this position. If they win today's match, Zimbabwe can turn around again.
