Next week the South Africa tour of West Indies will start with a two match test series. I am actually relieved that they restricted the number of matches to two. As we saw during the recent test series between West Indies and England, the former are no longer capable of competing in longer format of the game against quality opposition. That said, South Africa need to deal with race-based quotas and player flight. Temba Bavuma returns as the captain, despite having a test batting average of just 35.25.

I thought maybe Zimbabwe will be able to win this match. But even though the top order of Zimbabwe can bat well, the batsmen behind the squad are not able to bat well. In the first innings, Zimbabwe's two openers and no other batsmen except Williams could bat well.In the second innings we again saw poor batting from the Zimbabwean batsmen. However, due to responsible batting by Lorcan Tucker and Andy McBrine, Ireland won.
after watching the 1st inngins between Zimbabwe and Ireland, i laugh for their batting performance. cause only their opener batsmen were played well and rest of players weren't able to contribute for their team by making decent score, Just keep out with lower runs.  
In the 1st inngins, 210-10 runs were scored by Zimbabwe where Prince Masvaure as well as Joylord Gumbie contributed directly and 250-10 runs were Scored by Ireland where Peter Moor had great contribution. And i was waiting to see, what will happened in 2nd inngins if their best batsmen get out with lower score lol. So was happened in 2nd inngins. But Sean Williams(40) and Dion Myers(57) managed decent amount of runs for Zimbabwe team but final Score was only 197-10 runs. Besides Ireland top batsman Peter Moor out with zero runs and rest if top batsman did lower score. Lost 3 wickets at 6-3 runs and 5 wickets gone at 21-5 runs. I thought Ireland was going to lose this match but i really wondered how Lorcan Tucker(56) and Andy McBrine(55) hold their team tightly and made half century each and had great contribution. Finally Ireland won and i like finished Which was kind of unexpected

I like to treat everyone as a friend 🔹

After watching West Indies' performance in the first match of this series, I had no expectations from this team. I was sure West Indies would lose all three Test matches. However, the West Indies batsmen made a great comeback in the first innings of the second match. But as usual West Indies lost the match due to poor second innings performance.

Snip
Exactly West Indies proved that they are not a stronger team against England especially in test match format. I was happy in the second test match when West Indies played well in the first inning of the match and I was thinking that they will make a good comeback but they didn't. They need much practice and experience too if they really want to beat England team.
In the third match their performance was really bad. In the first inning the whole team got out at 282 runs and in the second inning they only made 175 runs. They gave only 82 runs target to England at end. Congratulations to England team.
They have 3 matches series and England won that series with 3-0. Smiley

However, the performance of the West Indies team in the Test match against England was really bad. They did not win a single match but lost all three matches against England and lost the series and were whitewashed in the Test matches. West Indies' performance from the start was very poor, and they did not do well against England, due to which they lost every match and did not get a match. But England team played with their responsibility and experience against West Indies due to which they showed strong performance in every match and won. The result in the Test series was 3/0 but if the West Indies team played with their experience and fought hard, they might have won. But West Indies have not played very well in the Test matches of the A team and their game has not improved, in that case they must improve their game and enter the field with their experience in the next match.

The Bangladesh A team was able to win the match against the Pakistan A team. But Radis was able to do it barely. Bangladesh definitely performed to actually be able to win this match. But there was every chance for the Pakistan A team to actually win this match. I agree that the Bangladeshi bowling unit made a good comeback. in this match bangladeshi bowlers were actually able to restrict the pakistani players. As we know, you need to bowl out your opponent cheaply once in a test match that is going to be enough. And that is what happened. Bangladesh was able to bowl out pakistan cheaply in pakistans first innings. That made things possible for the bangladesh a team.

That was a close win by Bangladesh A team. There was only two unofficial test matches which has been played already and first one won by Pakistan A team and second one won by Bangladesh A team.
Second match was very exciting because Bangladesh won this match by only 5 runs. Means match was very tough and exciting.
The target was 296 runs in the second inning but Pakistan made only 290 runs. Well both teams played well.
One more thing is that they have 2 unofficial ODIs ahead and I think that will be very exciting matches. Because both teams are looking at same level at this time so they will give a tough time eachother.

Another normal loss of the West Indies team, I think they are not judgeable as we can see they just almost win this match and could be a valuable team but once again, they started to play tension free and when one or two wickets fell they had no tension because they were imaging their win.
Finally, the West Indies team whitewashed by the England team as well. By the way, now it is not a new or unique thing (whatever you say) for them because as all know their team is going to backward instead of forward. The most worst team West Indies. ever.

If someone has been following cricket for very long time then your comment will really hurt them, WI are the one toom cricket as a game in most entertaining way and they still are, but their best players are not really prefer to play for their national team, just over the leagues all over the world purely because of money.

WI is not super rich like BCCI, ECB or Australia so they are doing whatever they can with the funds allotted for them, I am sensing they are doing better than their recent past but still a long way to go if they want to be champion team like good old days.

I would say the West Indies squad is still very strong. And there is no doubt about it. But the main problem of this team is that the players of the team are not interested in playing in the national team jersey. They perform in various franchise leagues throughout the year, and earn huge amounts of money. But playing with national team they can't earn much money.

Also the second problem of West Indies is that the players of this squad are interested in playing in T20 format. But not interested to play in ODI and Test format. Perhaps the players have very little patience. So despite performing well in T20 format, this team's performance in Test and ODI format is very erratic and weak.

West Indies' plight is unlikely to go away. But if the West Indies Cricket Board is strict then they can change their situation. Players should not be given clearance in all franchise leagues by the West Indies Board. Also the players have to be more diligent. Especially players need to be more patient. Otherwise it is impossible to bowl in ODI and Test matches.

The West Indies team lost the match and whitewashed against England even though England played exceptionally well in their three Test matches and showed their strong performance. But the West Indies team could not improve their game even though they had the fear of winning the match but they could not play seriously. If the West Indies team had played with excitement against England they might have reached the winning stage but they played without excitement due to which they lost.
Of course, the West Indies team is going through one of its worst performances in Test series and there is no improvement in their game. However, if West Indies can't improve their game then they will never progress so they must change their game and make exciting preparations.

I think just for a time Shamar Joseph has played amazingly and after that, we always see him in bad form but with this West Indies team has no advantage. He is in the team just because of Australia's innings. At that time, he gave a win to his country but after that, he did not perform well but I think there could be another reason for this, not a bad performance, he came here after a foot injury because of that injury he also refused to play PSL for Peshawar Zalmi and also refused to play some other small series as well, hopefully, he will recover.




He suffered a massive leg injury after playing against the Pakistanis, whose pain still lingers. But he will perform well again, it is the belief of the team, which is why he has been holding the game till now due to injury. Of course, the captain of the team has a lot of faith in him, which is why he has contributed the most in past matches. If he is performing poorly in a few matches these days, it is not because of him but due to injury. But once his injury is over, he will surely roar back as before and help his team single-handedly win as it should have done.
You notice the movement of his face says otherwise, where the injury is the biggest blow.

The second test match was won by the Bangladesh A team as well, this time not for the Pakistan A team.
It was seen in the last match the Pakistan A team gave too high target and their players also hit there centuries but this time, the Bangladesh bowlers performed too well and in the Bangladesh batting, there was not too much improvement.

This time the Pakistan team was not performing in the first innings otherwise there were the chances for the Pakistan A to win it. However, there are still two matches left but those are the ODIs and the test series has been drawn.

Yeh it's really bad news for west indies team because Thier cricket journey is going with one of worts time and that curse hold them tightly from long time after their brilliant golden era, If we have a look at their squad currently most of thier player focusing on playing short term league cricket and try to get as much as possible money and that's why most of them join every league to get the deal rather than focusing on playing some quality cricket for his national team and I think that the main reason of thier cricket decline, Anyway they not only lost the last match of the series but entire series with white wash and to be honest after their bowling performance in early overs of England first innings I was sure it gona be west indies day but they way they got exposed in second innings really divert things from their favor and thus thier mistakes and bad performance cost them a brutal defeat

According to me this game is also in hand of England team and their team already won past two test games and 2 nd win was totally mind blowing and no one believes that their team got a win. Anyways in current game, England team performed better than West indies team in first innings. West indies team only made 282 runs and entire wickets was fell down other hand, England team chased down all runs of West indies which was made in first inning and trail 94 runs. Now west indies 2 nd has started now and in 33 runs two batsman of West indies was dropped Kraigg again fail to show good effort and was dismissed for 0 run and other batsman Kirk, he scored 8 runs. Louis and Alick both these batsman are batting in pitch, Louis scores 18 runs and Alick make 5. Let's see at end of their innings, how much runs their team grab and set for England team. If I predict almost 200 more runs will set for England team.




England finish this match today and won it just because their master mind plan. As we know in the first innings of this match the full team of England was losing their wickets but when Ben Stokes arrived then the situation was good for England so this time, the captain Ben Stokes decided to open the match which was such a good decision.
At the first innings, Ben Stokes played at the 7th number but this time, he opened the innings with the great opener Ben Duckett. Ben Stokes hit 50 while Ben Duckett made less score but he played fast and most of the time, we have seen Ben Stokes while batting.

The first innings of England, there we have seen such an wonderful bowling by the West Indies team but until just Ben Stokes and Joe Root didn’t started to make partnership for England.
They both making good partnership and also played safe without taking risks. At the end, they are the players that gave lead to the England team once again and allow their team to do come back as well.  But the time has come and they both were out after the so many effort of west Indies. West Indies bowlers picked their wicket, after them both Chris Woakes  and Smith was the next fear for the West Indies but they also out to them but until that time, the score was too high which was made from Engalnd.

Zimbabwe vs Island Ireland won this match by four wickets Ireland played this test match brilliantly. Zimbabwe scored only 210 runs in the first innings, and Ireland scored 250 runs in the next innings. However, the Zimbabwean team could not give much lead to Ireland in the 2nd innings, due to which Ireland was not under so much pressure, collecting only 197 runs. The Island team came out to meet this target of 197 runs and they scored 158 runs in the second innings to meet their target and win by four wickets. Although the opening batsmen of the Ireland team did not bat very well rather they played poorly but later on they held the game due to which Ireland won this test match.
After end of the third day play things were looking well-balanced for the two teams, but today we have impressive performance from the Andy McBrine who took 7 wickets and score crucial half centuries for win his team because in second inning as we have start of Ireland inning things were looking not good but Andy McBrine and Lorcan Tucker play important role for their maiden test win after having test cap few years back.
Yeah, In second innings Zimbabwe made only 197 runs and set a target of 158 runs to Ireland. Excellent bowling by Zimbabwe bowlers in the second innings. Ireland lost their first five wickets on just 21 runs, which created huge pressure on Ireland's team. All credit goes to Richard Ngarava who took 4 wickets while Blessing Muzarabani sent two players to the pavilion Brilliant bowling by Zimbabwe team who destroyed Ireland batting line up after that Lorcan Tucker and Andy McBrine came on crease and take positions they played 6th wicket partnership of 96 runs which gave a new hope to Ireland team to won this game and pressure shifted on Zimbabwe team Andy McBrine with 55 runs played game winning inning and Ireland team won the one off test by 4 wickets.

Mark Wood has amazing performance in the last test match between England and West Indies. He took 5 wickets for England with his great bowling. His performance was best and helped for the team victory. Because of his wonderful and amazing play, he was the man of the match. Mark Wood is the key player for the England team in this test match as well. 

In the first innings, he took the wickets of two batsmen with his great bowling, his performance was average there but in the second innings, he performed too great and because of that one performance he is the man of the match.

Ireland needs another 125 runs to win the only test match against Zimbabwe. But the problem is that they have already lost 5 wickets. The original target was 158 runs, and Ireland are at 33/5 now. Richard Ngarava has so far taken 4 wickets and he is taking advantage of the helpful conditions at the Civil Service Cricket Club in Stormont. They have Andy McBrine and Lorcan Tucker at the crease now and after them it is the lower order batsmen. If the Zimbabwean bowlers can take a couple of quick wickets early on today, then the match will be firmly in their grasp.
Its a fantastic test match more enjoyable then England vs west indies test match. Ireland show outstanding batting and bowling performance in this match and winning by four wickets against Zimbabwe. in second innings of test match Ireland chase down an easy target of 158 runs just loss of six wickets. The Player of the Match is Andy McBrine from Ireland for his amazing all round performance in first inning they scored 27 runs gut bowling well picked three important wickets for his team and in second inning of test match McBrine picked four crucial wickets and scored a well deserved half century and remained unbeaten on 55 runs.


Thee series between West Indies and England has finished with the victories of England in the all matches. This series will remain in memories because it is the last series for the James Anderson. He played just the first match of the series in which he performed average, not too good. He retired on 10th July and play his last test match at Lord’s Cricket Ground.

After James Anderson, Shoaib Bashir had a chance to play the two matches in this series, his performance was also average, at the last match he picked one wicket and overall he did good bowling and he could play  more series or matches for the England team.

Ultimately , England International test cricket team will win the final match of series. England team is much stronger than West Indies team and West Indies team us not that of team that will play good in second inning. They are short period playing players and they always play less balls and they try to make more runs but that attitude is not good in test match because test match is a game of patience and England team has proper attitude for test match because they are champions of test tournament and they are also Inventory of cricket and they played match against Australia very  long time ago.West Indies team will lose the final match and series will be 3 in 0 and we will see England best bowling and batting and we will enjoy it because they are legends.

Most of us were expecting that England would whitewash this series, and that is going to happen. And so far in the first two test matches, West Indies went down by quite large margins. The third match is also going in the same way. West Indies had England down at 54/5. But then the partnership between Ben Stokes and Joe Root rescued them. By the time Ben Stokes got out they had reached 169. And then Jamie Smith played a very valuable innings to take the total to 376, with the help from lower order batsmen such as Chris Woakes and Gus Atkinson.
Agree, In second innings west indies could made only 175 runs and set a target of only 82 runs to England such a bad performance by west indies team in this test thry did not play long innings in this series. Excellent bowling by England team especially mark wood he took five wickets in second innings and west indies chase down the target in 8th overs without lose of any wickets what a strategy for west indies team to chase this target Ben stokes played fastest fifty for England team in test history He made fifty on just 24 balls which was outstanding performance It is a great honor for Ben stokes to h old the record. All credit goes to the England team who showed great performance overall the series and won three out of three matches west indies failed to win a single match England whitewashed West Indies
In the first Test, West Indies were defeated by England by a series margin, the third Test match but in no way less than a series margin defeat. We saw West Indies bowled out for very few runs in the second innings for England's target of just 82 runs which they managed for 10 wickets. If no wicket falls to complete a complete innings and the match is won by either team then we can call that win by innings margin. 

The three Test matches played between England and West Indies had this Test series been played in the West Indies, the Caribbean might have had a chance to do well against England, but on English soil, England are definitely favorites against the West Indies and it is a foregone conclusion that they will win most of the Test matches.  .
