Zimbabwe vs Sri Lanka 2nd T20 match will be held at Sri Lanka's home ground. Although currently Sri Lanka team has performed very well against Zimbabwe in the first T20 match. Accordingly we think Sri Lanka will perform well to win the second T20I, but Zimbabwe can improve their game to win. Although Zimbabwe had a good batting performance in the first T20 match but unfortunately they could not put pressure on Sri Lanka at the last minute due to which they bowed out. If Zimbabwe team can put Sri Lanka under pressure in the second T20 match then it is definitely possible to win the match, and winning the second T20 match is very important for Zimbabwe. If Zimbabwe does not win the second T20 match then the T20 series will be lost, so the players of the Zimbabwean team must have a good batting and bowling performance against Sri Lanka if the series is to go. Both Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe will try to play well to win the match and if Sri Lanka wins the match then they will definitely be able to win the series.
Hobart Hurricanes Vs Melbourne Stars
Today Hobart Hurricanes and Melbourne Stars faced each other in the 38th match of the Big Bash League. Despite winning the toss and deciding to bowl, Melbourne Stars could not put up much resistance against Hobart Hurricanes. Hobart Hurricanes managed to score 86 runs in the opening pair, extending their score to 187/8. Melbourne Stars' opening came under pressure when both batsmen were dismissed for 31 runs. Middle-order batsmen Maxwell, Webster, stoinis tried for the match but they could not win the match and suffered a seven run defeat. Both teams' wins and losses have no effect on the points table because four teams are already confirmed for the next round.
Many may regret a match when a team can't secure a win despite playing well against a big score. Today Hobart Hurricanes was very close to chasing 187 runs Melbourne Stars they dominated the entire match even they had enough wickets but they could not convert the match to win for just 7 runs. I think it is nothing but failure of the batsman. The batsmen's scores in the 18th and 19th overs were very small. Melbourne Stars' total of just 5 in the 18th over and 8 in the 19th over almost assured defeat for the team but the last over they scored 16. The number of points and matches between the two teams is almost equal. Both teams won 4 matches each.

I don't understand how these things are actually something that Pakistan is going to be very happy about. Because they have lost 2 matches in the series so far. And now they will have to win all the 3 matches that are left in the series if they want to win the series. And I think Pakistan really needs to work on their batting. It was a very good pitch in my opinion. They could not have wickets in hand to actually accelerate. And they could not play out the whole 20 overs as well. That is another problem for them. They will have to give importance to making big partnerships consistently. I honestly don't think they will be able to win three matches in a row.
Babar Azam and Fakhar are the greatest partnership ever, in the World Cup Fakhar and Babar Azam didn't give any chance to New Zealand and this time, they also did this but after some time, when Fakhar Zaman completed his 50 so he was out on the out swing, the ball was touched to the bat lower part and it went to the wickets, Babar Azam always needs a good partner even the partner don't play but at least he was set to play for more time because Azam Khan also can't play good, and the other players are also not playing well.
Pakistan no doubt have to play well in the next matches in order to come back in this series. One more loss and it will be all over for them. They can't afford any more loses now. Also, if Pakistan lost the next match, it will making the rest of the matches, uninteresting ones.
In yesterday's match, when Babar Azam completed his 32nd half-century which was never made by any player in cricket but Babar Azam completed his 32 half-centuries but when he completed it, he didn't celebrate it because he knew that the match was in a tough situation.
In this inning, the Pakistan team breaks their own records, but cannot win the matches of this series. Thats the only good outcome of this series otherwise the Pakistan batting was a big disappointment.
In the first match, Saim Ayub broke the record of a player from Pakistan who played in the past and now he was retired it was the record for the most catches in an inning and now it goes to Saim Ayub, he took 4 catches in an inning, and in yesterday's match, Rizwan broke a record of Muhammad Hafeez to hitting most sixes in T20I on his career, Rizwan hit 76 sixes in his career and M.Hafeez hit 76 sixes in past when he was playing cricket.

In yesterday's match, when Pakistan was near to losing against New Zealand so on that time, Pakistan needed 48 runs in 18 balls, and this same situation went to Virat Kohli against Pakistan in the 2022 T20 World Cup, where Haris Rauf on bowling and he hit straight two sixes which lead to win that match, and on that balls Haris Rauf is not useful for blame because that ball was length and swing so how can he hit a six in front. Only Virat Kohli can hit this shot, but on yesterday's match Pakistan team cannot do this.
Yesterday India won the match by 6 wickets. Afghanistan team came out to bat and set a target of 172 runs in 20 overs. Afghanistan team beat this target easily and India won the match. I never thought that Rohit Sharma will play so badly in this match. .Rohit Sharma was dismissed for 0 runs off 1 ball.Virat Kohli was dismissed for 29 runs off 16 balls.Shivam Dube scored 63 runs off 32 balls.
You are right, Rohit Sharma's poor performance in yesterday's match was not at all expected by India fans. Rohit Sharma is one of the most skilled players in the Indian cricket team. It is a great shame for such a skilled player to get out for 0 runs in 1 ball. If only Rohit Sharma could have done something better in this match. Then the Indian team could have won the match in fewer overs. However, we hope that Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli will be able to give the best performance to the cricket fans in the upcoming matches. However, in yesterday's match, the players of the Indian team showed a great surprise on the batting side rather than the bowling.

Yes, in 2 nd match of T20 India vs Afghanistan team match won India team by 6 wickets and 26 balls left for bat. Afghanistan team in this game failed to break India team to chase down their 172 runs target and target of Afghanistan team was not small but their bowling lineup effort was poor than batting lineup and this game was also lost due to bowling lineup. In 2 nd game, India team won toss and first they decided to bowl. This game was held on Holkar Stadium and this stadium was lucky for India team. Y. Jaiswal batsman scored 68 runs in 34 balls with five 4s and six 6s. V.Kohli scored 29 in 15 balls with five 4s. S.Dube alos played well and made 63 runs in 32 balls with five 4s and four 6s. R.Sharma mad J.Sharma player effort was too poor both batsman not scored well and bowled out at 0 runs.In the first match of this series, Rohit Sharma was run out on zero and he was out by Gill but in this, Shubman Gill also didn't have a fault on it because he was watching a ball and didn't see that the Rohit was running, and from this, he was out but on that time, the commentator said "Rohit Sharma abused to Gill, and the Gill will never forget these abuse by Rohit is his life.
Rohit can't repeat his words again." So, this line proved that Rohit was not happy with him, but in the next match, Rohit Sharma was captain and he dropped him while he played well in the first match, and Rohit was also out on zero in the second match and he was bowled.
In yesterday's match, when Babar Azam completed his 32nd half-century which was never made by any player in cricket but Babar Azam completed his 32 half-centuries but when he completed it, he didn't celebrate it because he knew that the match was in a tough situation.

This is the great achievement for India team. He achieved the big target of 172 to win the match and win. They achieved the target of 172 in 16 overs and with so much effort and struggle they achieved their given target in 16 overs and won.If Afghanistan batsmen give a target of 230, then India batsmen have the power to achieve that too.India batsmen fought hard and won the match and achieved Afghanistan target in very few overs.The entire Afghanistan team did not work hard and struggle if they did they could have matched India and the success they got would have gone to the Afghanistan team. The pitch was batting friendly. So it is only natural that batsmen will get extra advantage and give high targets on this pitch. And I would say that a target of 195 is possible to win on this pitch if the batsmen can bat with some responsibility.
Pakistan batsmen's performance was very poor today. Both openers cannot bat well. While Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman batted well, none of the latter batsmen could bat responsibly. Apart from Babar, Fakhar Zaman and Shaheen Shah Afridi, no other batsman could score double digit runs. Pakistan will not be able to win even a single match of the series against New Zealand if they perform such a bad and erratic performance.

Actually, before this fifty, Fakhar Zaman also lost his wickets and from this, we didn't see a celebrating by Babar Azam on his fifty. By the way, in this series, Babar Azam played very well and if he played like this so Babar Azam could also had a chance to make a century and if he made so it was his 4 century in T20Is, and he needed just 2 more centuries to make a player who had most centuries in T20I cricket.

R.Sharma mad J.Sharma player effort was too poor both batsman not scored well and bowled out at 0 runs. India team is very strong now. They have a lot of talented players in their squad. We also saw India's great dominance in the World Cup. They played very well. But unfortunately they were defeated in the final match. But still Indian players played great in T20 series against Australia. India is also playing very well in the series against Afghanistan. And in these two matches they proved that their pipeline is very strong. Even if the senior players of the team retire, India will not face such a problem. The Indian management has every senior player capable replacement. So India can continue their great performance in the future as well.
The problem with the Indian team is that they have so many talents that they are now confused about who to select. The other problem is that the management of the Indian team feels that wining a bilateral series is sufficient enough as a country. Proving themselves as the best team needs an understanding of winning an ICC tournament sadly the coach of this team has not won a single ICC tournament when he used to play. How can you expect him to deliver the cup without being part of the winning team of the cup?

Funny seeing so many people think that India are in a great position to win the upcoming T20 World Cup just because they are performing well in recent T20 matches against somewhat weaker teams.
India need to focus on getting rid of the chokers tag in order to actually win big ICC cups which probably won't change anytime soon.
India is a good team and always performs in bilateral series as well as in ICC tournaments, but luck was not on their side in the past ICC events. They might have a chance at the ICC T20I World Cup by looking at their performance in recent T20Is. I think the T20 is a different format, and each team has a chance of winning because a single player can turn the game in their team's favour. Other teams are also looking good and preparing well, so it is difficult to predict the outcome of the T20I World Cup.

Looked like an easy winning match for India team. Afghanistan team did well, and they weren't able to control the India team. Three batsmen contributed to the winning and they made strong runs in a much comfortable manner. In between India lost wickets and among that two players walked to the pavilion without scoring single run. Maybe if the scoring of Jaiswal was stopped earlier, Afghanistan might've got better chance of winning the match.
Easy? India thrashed Afghanistan. Chased decent total of 173 in mere 15.4 overs. Except Gulabadin and couple tail-enders I don't think they did well, I don't like it when players play at close to 100 SR or worse go below it in T20, looks at this — Zadran 8(10), Omarzai 2(5), Nabi 14(18), Zardran 23(21).
They could have crossed 190 or even 200 had they continued what Gulabadin started, they got all-out anyway with their safe batting, often players try to keep their wicket safe and expect to go guns blazing in last few overs, but more often than not this strategy fails.
I think that the target that Afghanistan actually had given to was very decent. The problem is India was the team to chase the target. And we all know how good India is with chasing. I really think if Afghanistan actually had Rashid Khan the result could have been different. I don't think Afghanistan was going to win even after that but I think the result could have been very different. But anyway, India versus without any problems and they have already won the series.
Afghanistan though set a target of 172 runs which was the big target for them. But the Indian team is strong and easily the Indian team completes the target, but I saw that the Afghanistan team could not create any pressure from the bowling side which would be a danger for the Indian team. So if Afghanistan team wants to win along with Indian team, then it must be experienced in terms of batting and bowling which is most important nowadays.

Rohit Sharma didn't make contribution with the bat, but as the captain, he was impressed by his team's performance. In the second T20I against Afghanistan India got an easy win for India. The Afghans played a commendable game, displaying bravery that is rarely seen against India in India. India has maintained an unbeaten record in their last 15 T20I series at home. As of the current combination, it looks like there is no place for KL Rahul and Gill in playing XI.
Though, I sense Jaiswal and Rinku have guaranteed spot in squad. There is fierce competition between Jaiswal and Gill for the opening slot. I am confident about these two making it into the team, but I am unsure whether they will be part of the playing squad. Rinku should be part of the team down the order and I am now unsure whether Hardik Pandya would be part of the team if Shivam Dubey continues to play in the same manner. The best way to evaluate these two would be IPL and considering the long period in which the IPL would be played the selectors would be able to evaluate correctly and find the right guy suited at that position. I somehow feel that Rohit Sharma would be the captain of the team playing in the T20 World Cup.

If we are talking about t20wc squad here, these two still have high chances to make it cause selectors are likely to go for experienced players over new players. No matter how good new players may be, most fumble in big tourneys.
Though, I sense Jaiswal and Rinku have guaranteed spot in squad.
