New Zealand need another 258 runs to win against Australia, with 7 wickets remaining. Spinners have dominated this match so far. Nathan Lyon took 4 wickets in the first innings, and so far 2 in the second. For New Zealand, Glenn Phillips took 5 wickets in the second innings. At this point, Lyon and Head are bowling in tandem, and Rachin Ravindra and Daryl Mitchell are just trying to survive. Mitchell has made just 12 runs from 63 balls, while Rachin has been a bit more aggressive. The three Aussie pacers (Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood and Pat Cummins) are being used intermittently.

What really has taken the game away from NZ is Green 174 runs in first innings, apart from that innings there is no considerable performance in batting from Aussie side. Aussie scored 383 runs in first innings and 164 in second innings. NZ have given a lead of 204 runs in first innings and that's why they have to chase a huge target of 368 runs despite Aussie low score of 164 runs in second innings. Tomorrow we will have result of the game and hopefully it will be Aussies once again.

Australia is all out after adding 164 runs to the existing lead. The target for New Zealand is now 369 runs out which they managed to get 35 runs after losing 1 wicket. They will need a big partnership if they want to get those runs, which looks like an impossible task considering the conditions. This test pitch is a bowler paradise and bowlers are ruling it. I think Australia will win the first test match.

There is still plenty of time for New Zealand to win this Test match as they are currently 101 runs for three wickets. Kane Williamson, one of the best batsmen of the New Zealand team, was unfortunately run out in the first innings, but he could not give his expected innings in the second innings today.Rachin Ravindra who was dismissed for zero runs in the previous innings is batting well today as he has completed his half century. New Zealand need 268 to go and if they are to win this match they will need a patient innings and a big partnership.

Apart from this Yesterday one of the umpire announced their retirement from Cricket who is the umpire who had said it's a no-ball but it was not and on a free hit a six was done by Virat Kohli.
Unfair no ball did by him at the Melbourne cricket stadium where the Pakistan vs India match was played and there Nawaz was on bowling when he made a no ball, it was not but because of Marais Erasmus it was, and then Virat Kohli hit a six on it from this Pakistan team lost the match in the mood of unfair. However, now he took retirement at the age of 60 after doing many unfair things.

In the second innings, New Zealand bowled brilliantly. Glenn Phillips took five wickets against Australia in the second innings. In this condition, it will be difficult for New Zealand to chase 369 runs by batting in the second innings. Tom Latham, Kane Williamson, Will Young quickly returned to the pavilion. New Zealand's team score is now 89/3, still needing 280 runs to win. Almost end of the third day's play, only 10 overs will be bowled today. The partnership of Daryl Mitchell and Rachin Ravindra is very important for New Zealand. If they can form a big partnership then the picture of the match can change.

The match is not done for the Kiwis yet but I'll repeat what I've said many times.

New Zealand are Australia's bunny and the latter treats the former as India always treats Sri Lanka in any bilateral series. For some reason, Kiwis always find themselves in trenches when playing against Australia and hardly win anything.

I was actually surprised to see Australia getting all out so cheap, to be honest. 6 batsmen from Australia got out with a single digit score. And nobody was even able to get a half century in the second innings of Australia. Australia already had a very good lead from the first innings. so I don't think they need to worry too much. Right now the drinks break is going on and the good thing for Australia is that New Zealand has already lost 3 wickets pretty quickly. Only for 65 to be exact. New Zealand will have to stabilize the innings right now and not lose any more wickets at this moment. they need 304 more now.

Afghanistan VS Ireland
Against a team like Ireland, I thought Afghanistan's batsmen would perform well, but Afghanistan's batsmen could not perform like that. Afghanistan were all out for just 155 runs in the first innings. Ireland's batsmen scored 263 runs in the first innings to give a lead of 108 runs.
Afghanistan batted badly in the second innings as well, so far Afghanistan scored 182 runs for 7 wickets. The way the Afghanistan batsmen are losing wickets, it looks like they might be all out today. Afghanistan batsmen have given a lead of 74 runs so far and it will be difficult for them to give a lead of more than 130 runs.

Afghanistan played very disappointing cricket even shocking his defeat by Ireland's weak team in test cricket. In this test match, Ireland outclassed performance against Afghanistan.Ireland won by 6 wickets they chased the small target of 111 runs in just a loss of 4 wickets at the end of day 3. The Player of the Match is Mark Adair for his outstanding bowling performance picked 5 important wickets in the first inning of the match and scored 15 runs. In the second inning, Mark Adair also batted well picked 3 important wickets and All out Afghanistan team with 218 runs.

Finally results has been come out and Afghanistan were brutally defeated by Ireland which is really shocking for me because they have several top class player who has abilities to even tackle top class bowlers and we have seen it in different franchise league and different international competition but from recent time especially after baddest ever performance In sirilanka they decline were about to begin and thus constantly they were moving down ward they lose test, T20, ODI series at sirilanka and now continue his journey with defeat against Ireland at test series. To be honest Afghanistan were currently playing like street cricketers against pro even against weaker team. Anyway it's quite disappointed moments for Afghanistan fans and I think it's time to sack off coaching staff try to give opportunity to Rashid as a captain hope things will be better for them in upcoming future

AFG gave very good performance in the SL series and here too they tried their best and we should not forget this is red ball completely different from white ball cricket. The world class players we are talking about didn't play for AFG in this match and they haven't been able to be that much deadly in test matches when they tried too because here there is no pressure to score runs so there is no need to take risk against Rashid khan like bowler so opponents were happy to play no risky shots at all.

AFG is in the evolution stage and they achieved better performances in WC arena than before so that's their accomplished and new talents are grooming as well.

Congrats to Ireland for having first test victory after playing 8 test matches. Afghanistan have played 9 test matches and they have 3 test victories including one against Bangladesh back in 2019. If we look at the stats of current test match then Afghanistan struggle badly in batting. Afghanistan have played quite a cricket now and must be batting well against team like Ireland. It seems like Afghanistan have not much interested in test and there focus is on T20 only.

The Ireland team really deserves credit for their good performance in the first Test match between Afghanistan and Ireland. But I would like to give the most credit to Mark Adair for Ireland's first Test win against Afghanistan. He showed his best bowling performance in this match and he took a total of eight wickets in two innings of this match which made him man of the match in this test match.

Afghanistan team had a shaky first innings batting but they batted slightly better in the second innings than the first innings but still they failed to win this match. What I can guess is that Afghanistan cricket team is as strong as they are in t20 format and ODI format but not as strong in test format. Afghanistan team has a very poor record of winning Test formats but they have improved a lot in other formats in a short span of time.

Ireland lost three wickets for just 13 runs. But now their collection is 36/3. Ireland need 75 more runs to win. Experienced players like Andy Balbirnie (c), Paul Stirling, Lorcan Tucker and Andy McBrine are still there. Scoring 75 runs is an easy task. If the batsmen can survive at the crease then Ireland can easily collect 75 runs. And they have quite a few experienced batsmen in their squad. Lorcan Tucker and Andy McBrine batted well in the first innings.

Ireland created history; this is their maiden test victory. Emotional scenes all around. Ireland won the only test match by 6 wickets. Andy Balbirnie played the captain's inning, stayed calm under pressure and took his team to the glory. Lorcan Tucker and Andy McBrine batted beautifully, and the partnership of 72 runs took the game away from Afghanistan. Afghanistan bowlers looked threatening, but the pair played them with ease.

After having test cap in 2018 in last six years they play only 8 test matches with this is their first win things are never been ideal for them because they are having not good quality and chances for having enough test matches due to top teams unavailability and still their performance is also not good enough to have good performance against top teams because in recent times we have lack of matches for them which is surely having not good for their experience and practice, so things are having not good time just because of this still mostly are thinking they needed to stay in white-ball formats only which will help them for having better things in short time.

But still they deserve praise after having this first win against Afghanistan which is also now down due to their internal issues and most chances their chances for the improvement are also not good in near future.

Ireland performed well. They deserve to win this match. Ireland's bowlers took full advantage of Afghanistan's poor batting. In particular I would like to mention Mark Adair. He bowled brilliantly. Adair took 5 wickets in the first innings and 3 wickets in the second innings. Jahrao Craig Young's bowling was also very good. He managed to take 5 wickets in two innings.

Ireland's batsmen have also been able to bat very responsibly. Andy Balbirnie did not play well in the first innings but in the second innings he was unbeaten with 52 runs. Lorcan Tucker batted very well in both innings.

Ireland's squad now has plenty of experienced players. If the players are hardworking and confident then this team can play better in future. And can challenge the big teams. Ireland should now host series against Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and West Indies. This will give the players an opportunity to become more experienced.

There is no room for complacency for Ireland and they need to make sure that they don't lose any further wickets.

Australia is absolutely decimating the Kiwis across all formats these days. This test is most likely going to the Aussies at this point thanks to that insane 10th wicket partnership.

On the other hand, it looks like Ireland will comfortably defeat Afghanistan since they might have to chase a target of around 100-150 which shouldn't be a problem for them.

The New Zealand team has performed so poorly that I am surprised to see the performance in the Test match. Because they performed better than this in the T20 matches, but when it came to the Test match, there was so much fall of wickets that they lost all wickets and scored only 179 runs in the first innings. The New Zealand team will have to perform better if they are to win against the Australian team. Only Glen Phillips of New Zealand team scored only 71 runs and other batsmen did not score more runs. If you perform so badly, it will not be possible to win with the Australian team.

The New Zealand team has performed poorly this season tied with the Australian team. Yes, the New Zealand team has not won the T20I match, the Australian team has won all three matches. Just came to the test match and performed worse, the test game is basically to protect the wicket and perform for a long time but New Zealand has done the opposite. Couldn't save the wickets in any way, the power play resulted in the fall of wickets which was unimaginable. The credible batsmen have been dismissed with few runs so the Australian team has given a lead of 217 runs so far. If the Australian team can perform well in the coming days, the New Zealand team will surely lose this test match as well.

Poor Afghanistan! They keep trying hard and get so close to winning, but fail due to some or another reason in literally every format. They have some great players, but they still keep losing somehow.

Rehman and Zadran did a good job, but Adair was way better in comparison which is why he truly deserved the MOM award.

We are going to have good entertaining end of this only test match between two minor teams with both have good bowling, but batting is concern for them no team able to score good runs with Ireland having 263 in first inning and Afghanistan having 218 in second are the features of this test match Afghanistan which was doing good job now suddenly down in quality due to lack of interest from the many star players for the red-ball format new youngsters are doing good job, but they needed more time for improvement.

Now most chances this could be last session of this test match with requirement is only 46 runs 6 wickets in hands good battle between bat and bowl which is going to in next two hours for the win with most chances Ireland will be able to secure their first ever test win.
