Yesterday we saw the second day of test match between Pakistan and Bangladesh team, it is the matches of  A teams from both teams.
From the Paistan team Sahibzada Farhan is leading this series and in this first match, he made 66 in 88, good performance by him as the capain of the Pakistan A team.

Sahibzada Farhan ios a very good player, he also performed amazing at the Pakistan Super League but after that he was not selected for any series but this time he is leading and hopefully, he will make his place in the national team. Sahibzada Farhan the best player ever produce by
Pakistan team.

By the way, this test match was ended in a draw. Pakistan A team made 467 runs for 3 wickets down and then they declared the innings. After that Bangladesh made 203 for four wickets down and the match was ended with no results.
The game is not drawn yet day three is stumped and Bangladesh made only 20 runs. Pakistan A made 467 runs loss three wickets and declared the first innings and Bangladesh A team all out in 266 runs. Pakistan A Setting big total of 428 runs for Bangladesh A team to win first unofficial test game. day 3 stumps off excellent batting by Omair Yousuf Scored a brilliant hundred and out after scoring 100 runs while Mubasir Khan made 95 runs and contributed a few runs to miss his hundred. 

Bangladesh A team played seven over today they made 20 scores without lose of any wicket. Bangladesh A openers are on the crease and they will start the morning session of the 4th day if they save their wickets in first session then they will put pressure on Pakistan A side. Bangladesh A team that failed to deliver in the first inning of the game now needs 408 runs to win this game.

As we are all known to the fact that Muhammad Amir has came back into the International team. Also you may know the A team series is running between Bangladesh A and Pakistan A but on 21 August, they will be a series between Pakistan and Bangladesh original teams.

In that series, Muhammad Amir said that he took retirement decision back from the International cricket so he can play this test series too against Bangladesh. Also you may know that he took his retirement from the test since 2017 or 2018 but now we may see him back through the test matches and with his magical swing in this test against Bangladesh in Rawalpindi and Karachi.

A completely irrelevant test match is taking place at the Civil Service Cricket Club in Stormont, between Ireland and Zimbabwe. I don't understand the point in having just three teams in second division test cricket. Ideally there should be at least 8 teams. Apart from the existing ones (Zimbabwe, Ireland and Afghanistan), they can add Scotland, Netherlands, Nepal, Namibia and USA. Anyway, at this point, Zimbabwe has got a good start. They are at 65/0, without the loss of any wickets. Prince Masvaure and Joylord Gumbie are at the crease.
After a long time we are seeing Zimbabwe playing Test cricket. Zimbabwe finished their first innings game against Ireland yesterday where Zimbabwe scored 210 runs at the end of the first day and at the end of the first innings. Ireland will be batting in their first innings on day two and will definitely be looking to finish day two ahead of Zimbabwe. The outcome of the match depends a lot on the first innings of the opposing team. If Ireland can be ahead of Zimbabwe in the first innings then Ireland will win this match but if Zimbabwe is ahead at the end of the first innings then Zimbabwe will bat again and they will try to give Ireland a big target. All the best to Zimbabwe as they don the jersey of Test cricket after a long time.

I think the Zimbabwe team had to play slow that time, I am pretty sure if they would not play fast and -play slow that time, then might their team would have been alive in the test and would bat tomorrow and give a good target but they have all out just because of one mistake.



As we know, the Joylord Gumbie  and Prince Masvaure gave them a very great start but they have to maintain it, the openers has done their responsibility but when the middle order was started then back to back wickets were falling. To manage that Prince Masvaure started to play fast but he lost his wicket too so we cannot blame to Prince Masvaure  because he made the highest score in the team.

Zimbabwe scored 210 runs which I think not a good score. Ireland is looking better in this game. Means we can see how they perform in bowling. Andy McBrine and Barry McCarthy collected 3,3 wickets. I hope they will do well in the batting line too. If Ireland will make a lead of 200 runs so this will a good score. And this will be tough to cross. If Zimbabwe will make a lead of 100 runs in the second innings so this will not be good and Ireland will win easily. By the way we can't say anything at this time let's see what will the Ireland do today. Smiley

England vs West Indies

So today England and West Indies will played their third match.
As we know they have played two matches already. And England has won both. And I think they will win the third one too. In the first inning of the second match West Indies performance was very admirable and they were showing that they can win this match but unfortunately in the second inning they didn't play well but they show that they can give a tough time to England.  So let's wait for the match start. May be West Indies will give a tough time to England.


West Indies and England have met twice in Test matches, and England in the first and second matches. And England team won by a huge margin, so England team is definitely more likely to win this test match between these two teams today. 

Because the England team has enough experienced batsmen, especially in today's match, both the teams will perform seriously.  In two of those matches, the West Indies team performed well in terms of batting but could not perform well in terms of bowling. So if they want to win today's game, they have to seriously bowl and batting performance.

Yes the last test match of the test series between West Indies and England is going to be played today and only few hours left for the start of this match. The England team's performance against the West Indies in the first two Tests looks like they will continue that performance in the third match as well. The performance of the first two Test matches will make it clear to everyone how strong the England team is and how well they have performed. To say that in this test series, England team is playing completely dominant against West Indies, England is not giving any concession to West Indies.

If West Indies can't improve their performance then it goes without saying that they might be beaten by England in the third Test and lose the series 3-0.

I like to treat everyone as a friend 🔹
The Zimbabwean team scored 210 runs on the first day by batting all out. Although the team did not score too many runs, Ireland bowled well due to which they easily bowled out Zimbabwe. If the batsmen are not able to bat well in the test match then it is definitely harmful for the team as the runs will be very less. However, on the second day, the island team will go on the field to meet the target of 210 and they will meet the target and give Zimbabwe a big lead again. And I think in this test match maybe Ireland team will be much ahead compared to Zimbabwe because Ireland team can perform much better than Zimbabwe.

Really pathetic performance from the Zimbabwe batsmen. They were 193/4 and then collapsed to 210 all out. And this time they had a number of very experienced batsmen in their playing XI, such as Craig Ervine and Sean Williams. Sikandar Raza was absent, but he can't rescue the Zimbabweans every time in need. Andy McBrine triggered the collapse when he nabbed Sean Williams and Clive Madande in consecutive balls. And then Mark Adair and Barry McCarthy cleaned up the tail.

The opening pair of the Zimbabwean team was the most reliable in this Test match, but the batsmen did not perform well later on and were eventually bowled out for just 210. It will not be possible to stop the Zimbabwe team with a target of only 210 runs, in this case the Ireland team has performed very well. 
Every player in the Ireland team put in a good bowling performance, with Andy McBrine and Barry McCarthy dismissing the formidable Zimbabwean batsmen. Ireland will surely win this opportunity with Zimbabwe team, if the batting performance is right.

The match between Zimbabwe and Ireland was in progress but not right now, the first day of the test has finished. In this match, we saw too poor performance by the Zimbabwe team. They were able to make only 210 runs.



Their full team is all out today, the bowlers of Ireland is very good and doing bowling with amazing strength which totally caused the loss of Zimbabwe’s team wickets so far but if the Zimbabwe team bowls as well then it would be great for them.
I have a feeling that Zimbabwe team in the bowling department is also no so capable. They would do the same pathetic bowling as they have done today in batting so tomorrow they might do it same with the bowling because their current condition is like this. No Surprises.

Zimbabwe did not played well in the bat in their first innings and here you are right that we can expect in the next innings of this match their performance might be poor too.

By the way, also this time their squad is not too good, no Sikandar Raza and this time we are seeing some new players in the squad. It is the tour match and after this, no match is there for them, I mean no Interational match we will see in this series, that may a reason why Zimbabwe send a new team to play at Belfast. The openers of the Zimbabwe team is good with Joylord Gumbie and Prince Masvaure (who gave 91 runs opening partnership) but the middle order is poor and failed to capitalize on the start.

I see no chance of West Indies winning. West Indies suffered a humiliating defeat by an innings and 114 runs in the first Test match at Lords. The performance of the batsmen was terrible in this match. In the second Test match, we saw an improvement in the performance of the West Indies batsmen in the first innings. West Indies batsmen scored 457 runs. But in the second innings West Indies batsmen collected only 143 runs. As a result, the West Indies team was defeated by a huge margin of 241 runs.

West Indies' main weakness is the erratic performance of their batsmen. England's batsmen are in very good rhythm. So if West Indies want to win or draw then West Indies batsmen must bat well. There is no alternative.

Zimbabwe seems to be in a very strong position now. They are 153/3 at the time of tea. Prince Masvaure is still there with 70 not out, with Sean Williams at the other end. For Ireland, Barry McCarthy has picked up 2 wickets, and Craig Young has picked one. My question is why Josh Little is not in the playing XI. Is franchise cricket more important than test cricket? Especially for Ireland, who play 1-2 test matches per year? Brian Bennett and Clive Madande are yet to come for Zimbabwe, and a total of above 400 looks very much on the cards here.
Zimbabwe was performing quite well at the start.  Seeing his performance in the start, it seemed that now he has brought a lot of improvement in himself and it seemed that now he can hit the big teams, but after the first partnership, none of the players could bat well.  As soon as his first partnership was out, the other players began to feel pressure due to which they could not bat well.  Three of their batsmen who were out for zero runs  getting out for zero runs is the result  lose of the team and the same is being seen here.  But now let's see what they do in bowling, Ireland who are a good and strong team. If the Zimbabwe team somebow beats them, it could bode well for the future Zimbabwe.

I don't think this test match (the Zimbabwe Ireland one) would be that interesting but we have another interesting match lining up in just a few hours time.
Yes, Today after the some time, we will see the match between Bangladesh A and Pakistan A, they both played against each other before some days in which we have seen an easy win for the Pakistan A team. Also, the Pakistan batting is too good as their three batsmen made full centuries while one batsman even hit 200 in a single innings, what a performance.

This match will most probably be won by the Pakistan A team once again because as we know that this is the Pakistan's best A team so far and I am sure after this series, many players from this team may get selected for the main squad of Pakistan team.

Zimbabwean team were looking better side especially in early stages of the match but as soon as they lost Thier main wicket of P. Masvaure things got really messy for them and it's really difficult for them to control and hold on situation, to be honest compared to Zimbabwean team Ireland has much more stable and experienced Line up so I taught Zimbabwe will make things a bit difficult for Ireland after scoring 300+ in this first innings before they lose most of those wickets but they lose thier entire wickets at 210 which isn't a tough target to be chased for Ireland and also Zimbabwean didn't have any experienced quality pacer rather then blessing muzarabani so I don't believe Zimbabwe will restrict them below 400 as they will took lead too. Let's see how they can manage things

Ireland won the toss and sent Zimbabwe into bat, they had so far reached 85 for no wickets by the lunch break. Joylord Gumbie took a personal 49 just one run away from his half-century and is doing well on his debut. From the point of view of experience, Zimbabwe has played Tests much earlier than Ireland, so I will definitely put Zimbabwe ahead in the only Test match. Ireland have some good bowlers in ODI cricket and they playing today, but their experience is not useful now, they must use the experienced to take control of the match. The match has just started today and it is not clear which way it will go, but for now Zimbabwe are in a good position.
1 st day and 3 rd session is continuing in pitch and start of game, Ireland team won the toss and got a chance to choose bat or field first and choosing right decision. Ireland took field first and this game was held on Civil Service Cricket Club ground. Zimbabwe team scored 187 runs in 60.3 overs by losing 4 wickets. Player of Zimbabwe team playing great and also showed brilliant effort. Gumbie scores 49 runs in 99 balls and hitting seven 4s. Prince also batted outstanding and he made 74 runs in 152 balls and hitted eight 4s. Ervin team leader performed very poor and scored 5 runs and same d.myers scored only 10 runs. These are all dismissed from pitch and right now, Williams and Bennett both is playing their inning in pitch hope zimbabwe team grab good runs in 1 st dat and 1 st Inning.

Well, Zimbabwe is currently facing a big tragedy in the field. Zimbabwe was in a very good position. But between scoring 193 to 198, Zimbabwe had lost four wickets. So Zimbabwe lost their eighth wicket at 198. This does sound pretty unbelievable, to be honest. I was thinking that Zimbabwe is going to play out the whole day and maybe even play for over at the start of the next day. But now it seems like Zimbabwe is not going to play out the first day. There is a very big chance that they will be all out before that. Zimbabwe has been able to get to 200 when i seeing them to play then I go outside. I was thinking they are going to get close to 300 before ending their inning. But now 250 looks like a mile away & when I came back to monitor again i just shocked to see 210 they got all out lol. Great job by the Ireland bowling unit by the way. It was a great comeback from them from a pretty difficult situation. Now they will look to finish the job as quickly as possible.

Very strong comeback by Ireland after a disappointing first session. Zimbabwe was cruising at 193/4, but then Barry McCarthy, Andy McBrine and Mark Adair ripped through the lower middle order to bowl out the Africans for just 210. Zimbabwe lost 6 wickets while adding 17 runs. The momentum has reversed now, and Ireland will be the strong favorites from now on.


The two Zimbabwean openers started their innings very responsibly. So I thought Zimbabwe would collect big in this match. Zimbabwe's collection from the opening pair was 97 runs. Joylord Gumbie returned to the dressing room after collecting 49 runs. And Prince Masvaure's collection was 74 runs. After starting the innings so well, Zimbabwe's innings stopped at just 210 runs. After losing the wicket of Sean Williams, Zimbabwe lost wickets very quickly. I didn't think Zimbabwe's middle order batsmen would bat so stupidly against Ireland.

Ireland's two bowlers Barry McCarthy and Andy McBrine bowled very well in this innings. Both took three wickets each. The match was delayed due to rain. Ireland couldn't get their batting going on the first day. I don't think the pitch is completely batting friendly. So if Ireland's batsmen can bat responsibly, they can take a lead of 100+ runs.

The Zimbabwe team lost 9 wickets in the first day's play despite the relatively low number of runs in the match. Ireland's bowling performance in today's match was excellent especially Barry McCarthy bowled brilliantly due to which Zimbabwe team is still under pressure. Prince Masvaure batted brilliantly for the Zimbabwe team in today's match, he scored 74 runs but unfortunately could not reach the century.  Moreover Joylord Gumbie he batted amazingly 49 runs scored in 99 balls, these two batsmen batted well all other batsmen did not do very well for the team, however at the moment Zimbabwe team team runs 208, wickets 9.
Zimbabwean start of the test was impressive as their openers having good first session as I watch 120 for 1 I was having feeling they are going to have 350+ runs which could be good for them but after second wicket we have collapse which bring them down on earth Ireland is having strong command in this match now 210 for 10 after 71.3 overs mean things are out of Zimbabwean way.

McCarthy and McBrine done good job which is going to give them win in this test as well now we have 15 overs left in first day of play which is important for both teams because Ireland will try to have some good foundation of their batting which will help them for having good control in rest of the game as well.
