Pakistani A team will win this match easily by high margin because Pakistani A team is good team and players are performing well. Bangladeshi A team could not give good target in this match because in test match one inning score should be at least 300 pulse if one team wants to win the match but that is very low score and Bangladeshi A team bowlers are not quality bowlers and they will give more runs in this match and result of this match will be in the favour of Pak A team but Pakistani team should keep patience because that kind of matches give confidence to the players. That match has no importance on International level because that is unofficial match and player are playing the practice match but result may be different in serious match.

The matches between Pakistan vs Bangladesh will start from 21st August, right now here are the matches between Pakistan A and Bangladesh A but the real team matches start after a week.

As we know some day before, there was a controversy on Shaheen's action that he did bad behaviors with the team management but now he has been selected for the test series and I think if he performs well in these matches then he will get a chance in the next matches to play as PCB reports and some actions but still not confirmed. However, he has confirmed he is going to play this test series against Bangladesh.

The Bangladesh mess these days will probably have a big effect on their cricket players too who have already been in a state of decline for the last couple of years. Am hoping for the mess to get sorted out soon just like how the Lankans managed to do so sometime back.

We are currently having serious downfall in the quality of test format which is surely going to hurt its marketing as well so its good time for the ICC and all boards to sit and think about because we need to have changes with just 6 teams for the test format 12 teams for the ODI and 18 teams for the T20i with full members status and others need to be stayed in 2nd tier for the improvement in quality because without improvement we can't expect better results and performance from them.

Teams like West Indies and Bangladesh are not having good future in test format because it's long time these teams are completely failed to have improvement and things are going the worst day by day West Indian in last four test matches are having 3 loses and 1 draw with Bangladesh is also suffering badly for long time and new teams like Ireland and Afghanistan are also having not enough test matches.

Yeah, both these teams already played few more series like test game and Odi games I think these games just played for fun and practice. Now 1 st unofficial test game is continuing in pitch. In start of game, Bangladesh A team won the toss and they have good chance to take advantage for this opportunity but I think they are wrong to take first bat lineup. Bangladesh A played their 1 st Inning, In 1 st day of this game, Bangladesh A were dismissed all wickets and made only 122 runs. Opening effort of Bangladesh A team was playing great and Joy made 65 runs in 116 balls and hitted nine 4s. But other Batsman was lost their wickets for only low runs like 0, 5, 11 and 14 runs. Their start of this game was very poor and Now Pakistan A team Batsman came for playing their 1 st Inning and Pakistan A have a good chance to win this game by big margin.

Pakistani A team will win this match easily by high margin because Pakistani A team is good team and players are performing well.

West Indies vs South Africa, 2nd Test match is going to start tomorrow at Providence Stadium, Guyana, West Indies. I hope this match will be so exciting cause the 1st test match was draw. Although many brilliant players are in RSA team, and they are batting and bowling side are strong enough in comparison of west indies but both team performed well in previous match. Excellent batting performance of Temba Bavuma, Tony de Zorzi, Tristan Stubbs helped RSA to score more runs. On the contrary, Keacy Carty, Alick Athanaze contributed a lot for west indies team to go ahead with good amount of runs. If RSA has Jomel Warrican, then west indies has Keshav Maharaj, both player impressed audience with their bowling skills. well I think RSA has possibility to won the match tomorrow, Although west indies already developed themselves a lot. Let's see

The West Indies cricket team is currently going through a bad time in the Test format. They recently lost the Test series against England and maybe they are trying to improve themselves by learning from that failure. Which may have been reflected in the first match against South Africa, they may try to perform better in the second match as well.

They are only a great team in the T20 format these days and are perceived as a weak team in other formats.

It is the same old story for Bangladesh A tour of Pakistan. Bangladesh got test status 25 years ago. Even now they perform well below some of the top associate nations. And worse still, their best players such as Shakib al Hasan and Mahmudullah are nearing retirement. Younger players such as Liton Das and Tanzid Hasan are not in the best form right now. The future doesn't look very bright for them. During the unofficial test match, none of the batsmen apart from Mahmudul Hasan Joy could manage a score of more than 15. And other than Naseem Shah there were no experienced bowlers on the other side.

Bangladesh A vs Pakistan A

There was a first unofficial test match between these two teams which are mentioned above. Bangladesh played the first turn and they made only 122 runs. And if we look at the batsmen of the team so there is only one player who made 65 runs and his name is Mahmudul Hasan Joy. Otherwise there is everyone is looking below 15 runs. Means there performance was nill. And Pakistan A just started their turn and they will continue their first inning today on the second day of the match. And this time they made only 2 runs in 2 overs without any loss. I hope Pakistan A team will give a good lead to Bangladesh A team.

After such a long time, we have a match in Islamabad. By the way, it is not the real stadium of Islamabad where the match is playing between Pakistan A and Bangladesh A but still for the A teams it is a well-structured stadium and suitable to play there only for A teams.

Anyways, the batting of the Bangladesh team was so poor as they were all out on just 122 scores in this test match. I am sure the Pakistan A team can chase it easily or maybe they also could chase it up without losing any wickets because Saim Ayub and Muhammad Hurraira opened the innings and they both are really good batsmen.

I just saw that Naseem Shah also playing this game and picked 3 wickets but I think he should not have to play it because he is a good player and also int his format (A teams) then it does not make sense he is playing A team as he is the permanent player of the International team.

Instead of him, they also could give chance to Muhammad Zeeshan who picked 6 in one match in Under 19s Asia cup that was played in UAE in 2023. Zeeshan also played PSL for Peshawar Zalmi and performed not bad but after he has not played any single match for A team, league or any international match. Don't know why Pakistan waste talents and not give chance to young blood ?

The match between West Indies and South Africa ended in a draw. But I would say South Africa team played well enough in the match, they had a great performance throughout this test match. As in the first match no team could win despite trying hard, but the match was a draw till the last minute but in the next match both teams will definitely play with their great performance. And I think the second test match will definitely be played by South Africa with responsibility, and they will win their game, performance is good. But West Indies must improve their game and regret their game more, as they are not in very good form at present.

In a Test match, the outcome of the match depends a lot on the performance of the first innings of the two teams. If either team between West Indies and South Africa scored more runs in the first innings, on the contrary, if the other team was all out with less runs, then the team with more runs in the first innings would win the match. If you look at South Africa's second innings performance you will see that South Africa lost only three wickets in the second innings but declared the innings only to win the match. The South African captain might have been confident that they could bowl out the West Indies with the number of runs remaining, but the West Indies batted at an average in 2 innings and managed to save the match. At the end of the match it felt like South Africa may have taken some wrong decisions and that decision went against them but hopefully they will turn around again in the next match.

If a team bats well in the first innings of a Test match, they have a better chance of winning that match, Why do you think that? We often see that many teams are able to win Test matches by batting well in the second innings as well. To do well or win a Test match, any team has to put up a good batting performance in both innings and even give the opposition a target that they cannot topple. In the first test match between South Africa and West Indies, we saw that South Africa batted even better in the first innings. West Indies did not have a promising batting performance in their first innings, but managed to draw the first test match against South Africa with an excellent batting performance in the second innings.

The West Indies cricket team is currently going through a bad time in the Test format. They recently lost the Test series against England and maybe they are trying to improve themselves by learning from that failure. Which may have been reflected in the first match against South Africa, they may try to perform better in the second match as well.

After a shaky start, the West Indies team are trying to built the innings with Alick Athanaze and Kavem Hodge. West Indies lost 3 wickets for 64 runs and till then these two batsmen have taken the score to 121 runs. More than the runs, it is the overs that the West Indies played and survived, matter a lot.

Still around 30+ overs left in the inning and it is very crucial that these two batsmen continue to play over after over. The more deeper the game goes without losing wickets, the better for the WI.

Today again, it was Maharaj and Rabada who are among the wicket takers for the South African team

South African approach and tactics were good for having win in short time, but we have good fightback from the West Indian lower order because as we have three quick wickets for the South Africa things were looking not good for them, and I was also expecting some drama at the end, but we have good batting from the Kavem Hodge and Jason Holder because both give good support to their main player who stand for the team to have something positive at the end Alick Athanaze.

We have good stand of 17 overs between Kavem Hodge and Alick Athanaze then as Maharaj remove Kavem Hodge we have Jason Holder at the crease who done good job and stand for 18 overs with Alick Athanaze these two stands of 35 overs give lifeline to West Indies for having end of this match as draw because things were looking not good and South Africa were in good control.

The match was already having this option draw strong after we lost first days play, and then we have slow batting from the South African in second days play but things gone interesting on last day as we have good approach for the win from the South Africa because their batting and then bowling done good job for them, but we have strong resistance from the Holder and Alick Athanaze who out on 92 runs this was match saving inning from this young batsman.

Keshav Maharaj done impressive job for the South Africa in this match as he bowled 66.2 overs and having 8 wickets this is surely the best performance from him for his team cause even we lost five sessions in this test match but still we have interesting end this is showing how things are going for the South Africa they are giving their best for test format to have good results and entertaining games for the cricket lovers.

Keshav Maharaj has done an amazing job for South Africa over the years. But unfortunately his performance was not enough to guarantee a win for South Africa. In the second innings, he bowled 26.2 overs, out of a total of 56.2. That is almost 47% of the total overs. If not for the rain, they could have won. But in the end only the outcome matters. Alick Athanaze was the savior for West Indies. When Kavem Hodge got out, they were at 127/4 with 20-25 overs remaining. Athanaze and Jason Holder made sure that the match ended as a draw.

South Africa tried desperately to get the result and batted at a healthy run rate of around 6 RPO in the 2nd innings. West Indies only needed to survive 63 overs which were considerably easy in a test match. After a shaky start, WI better did their best to stitch the partnership and stay at the crease as long as possible. Alick Athanaze played beautifully and saved WI from a defeat, but he missed his maiden test hundred by just 8 runs. Maharaj bowled exceptionally well in both innings and was nominated as player of the match for the first test.

Yes, I too expected this match would be finished with results and would be won by the South African team but the next match also could be tie due to the South African batting.

In this match in the first 2 days, their first innings was not even finished which is why it was drawn but in the next match South Africa team must have to bat well and try to finish the first innings in one day then it would be great (yes rain also played a part). In the second innings, the South Africans did perform well and they made quick 178 scores but there was not enough time left in the match for South Africa to take remaining 5 wickets of West Indies.

1 st game was ended and I did not expect that this game was drawn and I believe that South Africa team will win this game their effort was good in 1 st Inning and grab good runs. South Africa team definitely played brilliantly and they made 357 runs in 1 st Inning and West indies team only scored 233 runs. Both have big difference in their first innings effort and runs. Both teams tried hard to win game but last moment this game was drawn no tea won this game. Hope in 2 nd game South Africa team will successfully win game but they made more good effort and hard working with playing responsibility. In 1 st Inning, both Bavuma and Zorzi performed very well and Bavuma made 86 runs and Zorzi made 78 runs. In 2 nd Inning, Stubbs played outstanding effort by scoring 68 runs other Batsman played normally. Hope 2 nd test game will be more exciting and intense between teams and both of them one will win game.

Alick Athanaze was the only change in the West Indies team and he was at his best and fell short of a century by just a few runs. West Indies' victory depended on his tenacity, even though the first opening batsmen did not perform well in this innings, he performed the best of all the players. From what I've seen Test matches usually draw less, after a long time I saw a draw. However, the players of the South African team could not create any pressure in terms of bowling due to which the South African team drew this match despite having the best players in this match.

It seems like rain will once again interrupt the match. West Indies started their 2nd innings and lost one quick wicket of their captain Kraigg Brathwaite. This was an important dismissal and the West Indies could have collapsed but again the rain came for their rescue.

I do hope that the match will start again and even if South Africa bowled 25-30 overs, it won't be easy for the West Indies bowlers to survive this. Since the captain of West Indies is out on the duck, this will add to the pressure.

All hope of the West Indies win will be on Keshav Maharaj and Kagiso Rabada. In the first innings Kagiso Rabada took three wickets and Maharaj took four wickets and South Africa team will expect the same performance by them when the match resumes. There are still 68 overs left in the day, an interesting day ahead

West Indies Survived played 56 overs and lost only 5 wickets. West Indies batting amazingly scored 200 plus runs in a loss of five wickets then session three of the last day ended the test match draw. of one more session is remaining then match result will be different because West Indies just 97 runs more needed to win the match. from west indies Alick Athanaze played a magnificent inning of 92 runs, unfortunately missed his well-deserved centeury by 8 runs short. The Player of the Match is Keshav Maharaj for his outstanding bowling in both inning of test match in first in inning they pick 4 crucial wicket by giving 76 runs and in second inning they also picked 4 wickets.
