South African batsman Ryan Rickelton has scored 50 runs in 73 balls and this batsman is playing very well. But his score in 23 overs is very low which consists of only 72 runs and also lost 3 wickets which will be more wickets out in next few overs. Their batsmen will need to score more runs in their next over and become a tough target for Pakistan to win in the first innings. Now the match is stopped and the team is launching, due to which the innings is not being played and when it starts, I hope that South Africa will have to win in this match and give a big target in this match as well. It will be difficult for Pakistan.Pakistan bowling is going well in stopping runs, if they bowl with more effort, they can win this match, otherwise South Africa bat Ryan Rickelton will make the target stronger with his century.
Australia once again on top in final test as they have bowled out India for just 185 runs. Rohit Sharma gave himself rest for final test and I think same should be done for struggling virat kohli who wasn't able to produce good performance so far in this except a century in Perth. If Australian can take lead of 150 or 200 runs in first innings then it will be very difficult for India to make a comeback in this test.
The Indian team is very weak to the Australian players, because the Indian team is not able to perform well in these test matches. Especially the attacking batsmen of the Indian team have performed badly, due to which the Indian team was all out after collecting 185 runs. In terms of bowling, Bhumi is the only reliable bowler of the Indian team, if the unique bowlers cannot perform well, then the Indian team will have the highest chance of losing this game.
However, now the current position of the Indian team will make it very difficult to win this match, but let's see how much pressure the bowlers of the Indian team can put on the Australian players.

It's always difficult to play test in Australia specially for Asian countries, India has better test record in Australia compared to other Asian countries. India has a chance to draw this series but for that they have to bowl and bat exceptionally well in what's left in this test.

Kwena Maphaka became the youngest Test debutant in South Africa Test history. The player made his Test debut at just 18 years and 270 days and that debut certainly set the record for the youngest Test debut in South Africa's history. Earlier, however, Paul Adams was 18 years 340 days old against England in 1995 and that was the record for the youngest debutant.
I think this happened because the Afghanistan team players did not play the first innings of this match with patience and seriousness. It is truly unimaginable for an experienced team like Afghanistan to finish their innings with such a low score in a Test match. Afghanistan cricket faced extreme criticism after losing all its wickets for 157 runs in the first innings of this Test match. Although the Afghanistan cricket team performed shamefully in the first innings of this match, I still think the Afghanistan team can show something good in this match.
Even if Afghanistan bats badly, they still have a chance to win. But for this, the bowlers will definitely have to bowl in a controlled manner. All Zimbabwe wickets will have to be taken before 200. If the Zimbabwe team is able to take a lead of 100+, then it will be very difficult for Afghanistan to give a big target. So the Afghan bowlers will have to try their best to take Zimbabwe wickets quickly. The performance of Zimbabwean batsmen is quite erratic. So Zimbabwe has the possibility of losing all the wickets before 200 in the first innings.
Zimbabwe lost their first wicket for 19 runs and the second wicket for 20 runs. Now Sikandar Raza and Ben Curran are at the crease. Sikandar Raza, Sean Williams and Craig Ervine are the most experienced batsmen of Zimbabwe. If the Afghan bowlers can take these three wickets quickly, then Zimbabwe will not be able to collect big.
In the 5th Test match between Australia vs India, India team came out to bat for the 1st Innings and scored 185 runs for the loss of 10 wickets in 72.2 overs. In the 1st Innings, India team could not do well in batting, Australia team did well in bowling, due to which India team was under pressure in batting. India team batsman Virat Kohli was out for 17 runs in 69 balls. Australia team now came out to bat for the 1st Innings and scored 9 runs for the loss of 1 wicket in 3 overs.
5th Test match between Australia and India started very tough for India. India batting was not good in first round they only scored 185 runs before losing all their players in 72.2 overs. Australian bowling team did great job putting pressure on Indian players with bat making it hard for them to score. And that is right Virat Kohli got out for 17 runs after playing 69 balls which shows how hard it was for Indian batting team. When it was Australia turn to bat they played carefully and scored 9 runs, losing one player in 3 overs. This makes match very interesting and we have to wait and see what happens next. 
It's been a while since I saw Bumrah get so fired up. Konstas is seriously rattling the Indians with his words more than his batting. Kohli lost it first and Bumrah next. It was hilarious watching Bumrah go after him when he removed Khawaja for the umpteenth time.
Anyway, Australia have the upper hand at the moment, but this could turn out to be a thriller right until the end. Excited.

Pakistan Vs South Africa
In the next one hour or less, the match between Pakistan and South Africa will start. Pakistan have to win this match at any cost if they want to draw the series, instead of losing it. What do you think which team will win it?
If we analyze the previous game, then I am looking at South Africa as a much stronger team than Pakistan. They also won the previous game. I think at some small moments, the Pakistan team needs to be good and should perform well. If Pakistan gets a good start today, then I am sure they will have some opportunity to win this test match.

If India can win the last match of the series, then the series will be drawn. Because Australia is now leading the series 2-1. One match has been drawn. But it seems that we will see India's defeat in the last match as well. India could not start well
True, there's a good possiblity for India to lost the Match due to their poor batting performance from beginning but i found India vs Australia test matches complex and unpredictable. Cause most of the time i notice, if one team do worse in First innings then they do remarkable performance in another Inngins. For example, India did 150 runs in 1st Inngins of first test but they scored 487 runs in 2nd Inngins and won. Same thing happened in 4th test match too where they scored 155 runs & 369 runs in both innings the match. And Australia has such record also. That's why, can't tell clearly that India going to lost, they can be Still optimistic for their winning cause both team are stronger, players have abilities to change the situation anytime. Well currently 144-7 was scored. Their top players failed to make runs as expected and now they don't have any good batsman where india team can rely on. Lets see how many runs India team can score in first Inngins. Afterwards how india build their strategy to stopped Australia batsmen from scoring more runsYou are right. India has a record of batting very badly in the first innings but making a great comeback in the second innings. In this match too, India batted very badly in the first innings. Even then, India has a chance of winning the match. However, if India wants to win the match, Indian bowlers will definitely have to perform well and take all the wickets of Australia before 200 runs. If Australia can take a lead of 150-200 runs, there will be no chance of India winning this match.
India managed to score 185 runs in the first innings. This is a very small total. I have seen teams often score big at the Sydney Cricket Ground. In most of the matches, I have seen teams score 300+ in the first innings. So I call India's 185 runs a small total. In the first innings, we saw Starc, Cummins and Boland bowling brilliantly. I expect to see better bowling from Indian pace bowlers.
India is trying to play their game with patience at the moment after losing 4 wickets. If the pair of Ravindra Jadeja and Rishabh Pant survives, it will not be possible for India to score well and if they get out, then the team will be under more pressure. The Australian team will want to bowl India out with a few runs in today's match, Scott Boland's ball is a difficult thing to play, he has already taken two wickets. So at the moment, the Indian team will have to bat very patiently, only then it will be possible to collect good runs.
India didn't bat well in this test match too and disappointed everyone
The top order batsmen failed again with Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul failing as the opening pair. Rishabh Pant made 40 runs but he should have continued after doing all the struggle and getting out is not good. Viral Kohli 17 runs and Ravindra Jadeja 26 runs would help much when you know it's a test match and the goal should be to play a longer innings. India played around 72 overs and lost all thier wickets. Also they had a slow run rate of 2.55. Nothing has gone well in the 5th test match for the Indian squad.
Finally, Rohit was dropped from the last test of the series. But the team once again proved that it is not Rohit alone who has been failing through the entire series; most of the players were doing badly. Virat Kohli played 69 balls, which is more than 11 overs, but scored 17 runs only. This should be enough to prove that he was patient with the bat. But it is the Aussie bowlers that did extremely well in batting.
No Indian batsman has been able to play consistently well against the Australian bowlers in this series. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were the two most experienced batsmen in the Indian squad. And the performance of these two experienced batsmen was the worst. Rohit Sharma has been dropped from the squad. Even though Kohli is in the squad, he has not been able to bat well.
India could only collect 185 runs in the first innings. Rishabh Pant was the highest scorer with 40 runs. Jadeja and Bumrah could collect 20+ runs. Starc took 3 wickets and Boland took 4 wickets in the first innings.
The pitch is not batting friendly. So if the Indian bowlers can do well, the match will become competitive. Australia has already lost the wicket of Usman Khawaja. Australia lost their first wicket by 9 runs.

So, Instead of blaming some specific batter, either we should blame the entire batting lineup, or give credits to the Aussie bowlers who ere unplayable through the entire series.

Afghanistan were all out for just 157 runs in the first innings of the second Test match today. The batting performance of the Afghanistan team was very poor from the beginning, the Zimbabwe team was able to bowl well, which put them under pressure. After drawing the first Test match, the Zimbabwe team has changed their game a lot, as the Zimbabwe team is currently batting to meet the target of 157 runs. Of course, the Zimbabwe team is batting with the hope that the Zimbabwe team will meet this target and give Afghanistan a good target. However, if Afghanistan can make a good bowling line, then they will be able to stop Zimbabwe, otherwise the Zimbabwe team will definitely try to play well in today's match to move forward in the series result.
Where the batsmen of both teams could not be dismissed in the first test match, Afghanistan scored 157 runs against Zimbabwe in the first innings of the second test match. The behavior of the ball on the wicket suggests that the curator may have changed the wicket. This was necessary because in the first Test match, if the game had been allowed to run for 10 days, the game might not have been completed in those 10 days. In the first innings of the first Test match, Afghanistan scored 157 all out when Zimbabwe went into bat in their first innings where they managed to score 6 runs without a wicket and the umpire then declared the end of the first day's play. If Zimbabwe can score 200 plus runs against Afghanistan then Zimbabwe will be ahead of Afghanistan in the first innings which will give them a chance to win against Afghanistan.
Similar story getting repeated at the Sydney Cricket Ground. India struggling at 144/7, with Washington Sundar and Prasidh Krishna at the crease. And Nitish Kumar Reddy is not going to rescue them this time. He became the 4th scalp for Boland so far in this innings. The problem for India is that they have a very lengthy tail for this match also. After Prasidh, it is going to be Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj. Despite winning the toss, India may get bowled out for less than 200 in the first innings.
If India can win the last match of the series, then the series will be drawn. Because Australia is now leading the series 2-1. One match has been drawn. But it seems that we will see India's defeat in the last match as well. India could not start well

Like in the previous matches, India's top order failed in this match too. Rohit Sharma is not in the squad. Virat Kohli could not play a big innings in this match too. Kohli could only collect 17 runs. India lost their sixth wicket for 120 runs. Indian batsmen are not able to survive at the crease against Scott Boland. Scott Boland has already taken 4 wickets. Now Jadeja and Washington Sundar are at the crease. India will probably lose all their wickets before 200.

Indian selectors did the right thing by dropping Rohit Sharma. But what about the other two poor performers (Mohammed Siraj and Virat Kohli)? And by replacing Rohit with Shubman Gill, they again sent the message that they are incapable of looking beyond the mafia. Abhimanyu Easwaran will return home without making his test debut. This is how the Indian selectors are rewarding all the hard work from him for the past few years in domestic cricket. Anyway, WTC final spots looks decided as of now.
Play began in the second session where another Indian wicket fell before the lunch break ie Subman Gill was dismissed. Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant have wickets which means India's top order can take some more wickets before 100 runs. Now in front of India in this innings be on the defensive and any way we have to get through the day especially if today's innings ends on the first day then there will be no chance for India to get a draw.
Moreover, this Test is more likely for India to play badly because there is enough reason to change their mindset under the pressure of the management. As Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and several other senior players may need to be held accountable as they return home. Because of this, there may be a lot of changes and pressure in the squad.
