Enjoyed a very beautiful game in today's 51st Match of Big Bash League. Today's game was played at The Gabba, Brisbane. And Brisbane Heat vs Melbourne Stars participated in this game. Brisbane Heat batted first and gave a target of 188 runs. Later on the field to bat. Named Melbourne Stars. They managed to score 184 runs in 20 overs. Melbourne Stars lost this match by 4 runs. I think it's really sad.
LOL.. finally Steve Smith has found a way to play T20 cricket. He tried his luck with franchise T20 cricket leagues (including IPL) earlier, but then found out that his playing style doesn't suit T20). His IPL batting average is not that bad (2485 from 103 matches, at an average of 34.51). But the strike rate (128.09) was a big issue. And that was the reason why he was dropped after the 2021 season by the Delhi Capitals (for comparison, David Warner has an IPL average of 42.01 and strike rate of 140.69).
Now at the BBL he has scored consecutive centuries. Yesterday he scored an unbelievable 125 from just 66 balls against the Sydney Thunder (including 9 siexs), and four days before that he scored a 101 from 56 balls against Adelaide Strikers. In both the matches, Sydney Sixers won by a huge margin. His next match is against Hobart Hurricanes tomorrow.
In this match, Steve Smith has shown that he is very much capable of playing T20 cricket. Now the only thing he needs to do is keeping his average above 25 and the strike rate of 130 or above. And if he can get a few half-centuries it is going to be great for him. Honestly, I want to see another century from him, to be honest. Because his century in this match was really entertaining.

I want him to get a half-century at least in the next match against Hobart Hurricanes. These types of innings are going to establish him as a T20 Batman again.
Missed this match and have to watch the highlights of the innings from Steve Smith.
Do watch the highlights. It was really entertaining even in the actual match. So, I do believe that you are going to find the highlights more entertaining. And if you can watch both the centuries that Steve Smith made in this tournament. Both of them are really good.
U-19 Zimbabwe Women's team have managed to score 86 runs which is quite low to defend and win the match. Zimbabwe team is popular than the Indonesian team. Indonesian team too didn't win easily, they've lost 7 wickets to reach the target with 12 balls left. As mentioned the match winning for Indonesia Women's U-19 team is a big thing, because it was Indonesia Women's team into an international tournament. Through the match atleast they'll have more experience, learn and prepare themselves for the upcoming matches.
There is no men or women team of Indonesia and its good to see Indonesia women U-19 team playing world cup. This tournament will give boost to cricket in Indonesia and may be some day we can see Indonesia women team in ICC world cup. Its too early to say but still we can hope that more countries join in.
It was fun watching the Indonesia vs Zimbabwe match at the ICC Women's Under-19 T20 World Cup. Indonesia were playing for the first time in a major ICC tournament (similar to Rwanda), and they got their first win today. There was a bit of wobble in the end, but Ni Suarniasih and Ni Indriyani added 20 runs for the 8th wicket to take them home. Indonesia ends their campaign with a win, although perhaps it was less sensational compared with the win by Rwanda over Zimbabwe a few days back. Hopefully the ICC will take note of this and increase the number of participants from next edition onwards.
I was actually a little surprised to see the result of this match. When I saw that the target is only 87, I thought this was going to be easy for the Indonesian women to chase down. But in the end they lost seven wickets and made it harder for themselves. But in the last partnership they added the necessary runs and got the win buy three wickets and two overs to spare. I honestly expected Zimbabwe to win in this match. But very good performance by the Indonesian under 19 women.
Jio is taking a huge gamble here. All the other OTT platforms derive a majority of their income from subscription rather than advertisements. During the 2014-22 period, Indian economy grew at a rapid pace and that benefitted the television and OTT broadcasters. But there is no guarantee that the same will continue for the next 5 years (global economists have been warning about a recession since 2020). In India, a general election is due in around 12 months from now and there is a big risk for Jio if some kichdi government comes to power after the elections.
Apple doesn't fall from the tree (Anil was a bit failiure) but Mukesh Ambani proved that when he revolutionized internet Data and upped the game in the telecom industry (don't forget how Airtel, idea, Vodaphone used to exploit), again consumers were the biggest winner, and again I am expecting the same. Success and failure are part of the process but Ambani is no mug either.
He is now targeting Hotstar, Amazon prime & Sony LIV with his offer of free streaming of IPL. Like he destroyed Airtel, Vodafone and Idea with cheap data and calls. After this year free streaming of IPL matches these online streaming giants will have to offer the same or better offers if in cricket streaming to indian audience.

Speaking of ICC media rights deal for rest of the world. They canceled the Dec 2022 deadline, we might hear some news on this soon.

The match between Sydney Sixers and Sydney Thunders was really interesting to watch. We got to see a great century from Smith. And they got a huge total. I was actually a little surprised to see the chase from Sydney Thunders. They did not play well at all. They were all out for only 62 runs. That was not a good performance from them at all. None of them could actually play well in this match. But nevertheless, I am still very happy to see the century from Steve Smith. It was a very interesting century. The first innings were absolutely full of fireworks. The Batsman of Sydney sixers came out guns blazing.

Watched the Under 19 World Cup between India and Australia, India had a really disappointing day with the bat but the Aussies struggled a bit with the bat even though they won the match in the end chasing a small total of 87, Indian captain was really disappointing with the field positions allowing them to rotate the strike which eased the pressure.
So you are taking about under 19 women's world cup here. India really missed the chance to be on the top of the group A if they had beaten Australia. But now both the Australia and India women team have four points after playing 3 matches. Rather Bangladesh and South Africa also have the same 4 points each, making this group wide open.

Sydney Sixers are performing well against Sydney Thunder in the 50th match of Big Bash 2022-23. They have held the 2nd position in the points table in this session. The match was reduced from 20 overs to 19 overs due to rain. Sydney Sixers scored 187 runs for the loss of 2 wickets. In reply, Sydney Thunder were all out for 62 runs from 14 overs. Sydney Sixers won by 125 runs. In this event of Big Bass, the game is almost over. And after just few matches we will see Eliminator, Qualifier, Knockout and Final match.
Sydney Thunders is the not performing team in this season even right now they are at the fourth spot but most chances they will be eliminated from the play-offs due to their worst batting in this season after bowled out for 15 against Adelaide Strikers they have done good job but today again they were bowled out for the 62 runs and lost their seventh match of the season which could be the most troubling thing for them in presence of David Warner and few other star player's performance like this is matter of shame.Today after winning toss Sixers elected to bat first and done amazing stuff star was former Australian captain Steven Smith who hit around the ground and score 125 runs on just 66 balls with the help of 9 sixes after giving target of 188 their bowlers were also on target and bowled out thunders for just 62 runs Steve O'Keefe with the figure of 4/10 and Sean Abbott with 3/11 were star for the Sixers.

Dhaka Gladiators won the BPL 2012, 2013 and 2016 sessions. But in 2023, Dhaka Gladiators were replaced by Dhaka Dominators and with this minor change, a big change is being noticed in the team.
Most teams changed their names, and it's happening every year. Mashrafee Bin Mortaza is the successful Captain so far. Mashrafee was the Captain of Dhaka Gladiators in the 2012 and 2013 Sessions. Shakib was the Captain in 2016, and he also won the BPL. Since the team players and Captain also changed, their performance won't be the same!
Dhaka Dominators are batting against Fortune Barisal in the 20th match of Bangladesh Premier League BPL. Fortune Barisal batted first and managed to accumulate 173 runs on the scoreboard for five wickets in the scheduled 20 overs. Fortune Barisal's top four batsmen did poorly but the next three batsmen did well. Iftekhar Ahmed scored the highest runs for the team 56(34). And Shakib Al Hasan played a cameo innings of thirty runs off just 17 balls. Going into bat with a target of 174 runs, Dhaka-Dominators have already managed to accumulate 48 runs for one wicket in 5.4 Overs . Dhaka Dominators now need 126 runs from 86 balls to win. Nine precious wickets in hand. But we know Fortune Barisal's bowling lineup is very strong. Let's see who the result of this match goes towards in the end.
Dominators are having good batting line up, but they still fail to achieve this target and now have to settle at the bottom of the league table and most chances early exit from the league in this season a well Mohammad Mithan and Nasir Hossain done good batting, but this was not enough for them to have win for their team.

India Women's team is making themselves strong with their performance. In Women's cricket something close to 150 runs is good and India defended it at 120 runs. India Women cricket is getting better over time. More cricketing action happening all around and this time Women's team too getting importance. Women's teams need to have continued series will make them better over time.
indian team won by 27 run - did great bowling attack Women team too needs an attention and appreciation - and financial support
I once watched a movie on Indian women player - shahbas mitu and it showed how women team suffered financially
