In the match of South Africa vs Sri Lanka. I was excited about the toss because I know every team who won the toss would get the huge advantage as the pitch is grassy which meant the fast bowlers gets the advantage and both teams having good bowlers that is why I was excited for this match. Sri Lanka won the toss, they decided to bowl first that was such a good thing for them and I was hoping they would take advantage of this.

South Africa didn't have a good start. The score is 80 and they have lost 4 wickets. The rain came and the match couldn't start again. South Africa would be having a sign of relief seeing the game stopped at the time when they were not in a good position.
Yeh you are absolutely right pitch has huge greenery and that provide huge advantage to bowlers but to be honest it's look like horrible dream for teams to face SiriLankan team especially in test format because we have seen thier recent results against new Zealand, where they brutally punished them throughout the series which was completely unexpected for me. but now I believe they have huge potential to perform everywhere just the only required things is support from track for their bowlers and they will get the game for you. Anyway now they lose his first four important wickets which can really have negative impact on rest of their upcoming player so things can be terrible for them but if bavuma does some ordinary performance then things can be change for them

The target was not much for Bangladesh but Bangladesh could not hold on to the wicket and at regular intervals the West Indies bowlers managed to pick up the wickets of Bangladesh and here but despite a relatively low target Bangladesh lost the match. India or South Africa are definitely stronger teams than Bangladesh in Tests, but I did not consider West Indies to be a much stronger team than Bangladesh, so naturally I thought Bangladesh would do well in the West Indies tour. But they could not show good performance on the field. 

Since the Bangladesh team has gone to West Indies to play a full series, we have to look at the ODI series or the T20 series even if there is no good success in the Tests. But for now, Bangladesh should have the main plan for the second Test match.

Anyway, Bangladesh has one more opportunity. The second match will take place on Saturday at Sabina Park. But given their heavy margin of defeat in the first match, the morale will be down in the Bangladeshi camp. The only positive for them in the first match was excellent performance from Taskin Ahmed (picked up a total of 8 wickets in the match). Apart from him, there were no good performances from any of the other players. The main issue for them is that the spinners were completely defanged during the first match.

South Africa did not perform well on the first day of the first Test match between South Africa and Sri Lanka. The batting performance of the South African team was poor from the beginning, due to which they lost 4 wickets. With such a disappointing batting performance against Sri Lanka, the South African team will not be able to fight and survive against Sri Lanka. To win against Sri Lanka, South Africa must perform excellently in their bowling and batting. Since today is the first match, it is not possible to say how any team will play, but comparatively, the Sri Lankan team is currently playing very well in every match. Therefore, there is a possibility that the Sri Lankan team will win this series against South Africa. Because the game that the South African team saw today was not good at all, they scored only 84 runs for the loss of 4 wickets.
Yes, The first Test was played between Sri Lanka and South Africa and first day played only 20 overs due to rain, resulting in a dominant Sri Lankan performance because they sending four South African players to the pavilion in just 20 overs. Sri Lanka bowling performance is amazing today especially Lahiru Kumara who picked 2 important wickets including the wicket of Tristan Stubbs. South Africa captain temba bavuma is playing at 28 runs alongside with wicket keeper bastmen Kyle Verreynne at 9 runs. This 5th wicket partnership between Kyle Verreynne and temba bavuma is very important for South Africa if they want to scored a total of 250 plus something.

Sri Lanka is a great team at the moment. They are not only big opponent against South Africa but also against any of the big teams. That is why I think this situation of the South African team is not unusual. If the Sri Lankan team wins against South Africa, they deserve it. Today, Sri Lanka used four bowlers and all three of them took wickets. Among the bowlers, Lahiru Kumara took two wickets. The fall of 4 wickets for just 80 runs is definitely a big hurdle for the South African team at the beginning. If the middle order players cannot do well, then there is no chance of this score going up too much. The South African team will definitely be far behind in the first innings. The two current batsmen of South Africa who are on the pitch, especially Temba Bavuma, the Test captain, must take responsibility and lead the batting otherwise the journey of South Africa's first innings will not be long.

West Indies won by 201 runs against bangladesh in their 1st test match. I don't Wonder as Bangladesh lost the match, rather as far my analysis, since last few years Bangladesh performance has been dropped horribly. they lost most of the recent Matches against their opponent which supposed to be, Bangladesh is now turn into a weaker team. West Indies did 450/9 runs in 1st inngins which was a huge run where Mikyle Louis(97) and Justin Greaves(*115) showed their legendary performance. Bangladesh did 269-9 runs where maminul and zakir ali did a half century. Bangladesh able to stopped West Indies batsmen at 152-10 runs in 2nd innings which can be considered their good bowling achievement specially Taskin Ahmed got 6 wickets alone in that second innings but due to bangladesh poor batting performance they once again did poor score like 132-10 runs. Due to a big amount of runs was scored by West Indies in 1st inngins, they won with a big run margin. Although west indies team doing good nowadays and their recent matches records were also good. So they have possibility to defeat Bangladesh in upcoming Matches.

The three-day test match among the Indian players has been scheduled to take place on 29th November and end on 1st December. The general public isn't allowed to watch the match, and BCCI has requested the Western Australian Cricket Association to keep the stadium locked. Indian players have already reached Perth and started the practice session. Western Australian Cricket Association staff weren't allowed to take their mobile phones to the ground to restrict them from filming the match.

It is not a 3-day match. The match will start on 30th November and end on the next day (1st December). So it is going to be a 2-day match. My guess is that both the teams will play one innings each (maybe 90 overs or so). But it is rather strange that the BCCI has requested for a closed match with no spectators allowed. BTW, will the match be telecast live on TV? My opinion is that the BCCI could have rather gone for a proper warmup match involving one of the Australian first class sides (such as Queensland, Victoria or Tasmania).

Before the second test between India and Australia, there is going to be one warmup match to be played by the Indians. They will be playing a 2-day match versus the Prime Minister's XI. I never understand the logic of 2-day matches. IMO, the most you can compress the test format is to make it a 3-day game. Anyway, it should pose as an opportunity for the Indian selectors to test some of the bench players. PM XI is full of inexperienced players, with the exception of Scott Boland, Matt Renshaw and Sam Konstas.

You cannot compare Bangladesh with Pakistan in any way, very strong in Pakistan cricket, especially in Test cricket. Pakistan's top-order batsmen are balancing enough while Bangladesh's top-order batsmen's failure is leading Bangladesh to decline in Tests, especially in cricket. As long as Bangladesh is not able to qualify batsmen in the top order, it is not possible to expect anything good from Bangladesh in cricket. So I consider the comparison between Pakistan and Bangladesh as unreasonable for now.

One thing is common between the two teams, that is neither the Pakistan nor Bangladesh team are in good form. Pakistan cricket team is also unpredictable in nature too. Bangladesh recently lost a test match against West Indies, however in the last series between the two teams, it was Bangladesh who won the two test matches against Pakistan, therefore based on the head to head matches, we can say that Bangladesh have an upper hand over Pakistan recently.

Bangladesh team is not only playing badly in test format but they are playing badly in all formats of cricket. Bangladesh have been given the opportunity to play in Tests for a long time but they have not improved, while Afghanistan, who got the opportunity in Tests far behind them, have improved themselves a lot.  The only reason why Bangladesh is not improving in all formats is because none of their players are playing well. Few of the batsmen currently opening for the Bangladesh team have not scored more than 50 runs in any of the series. So how will they lead the team properly and lead them towards big collections is the question for many cricket pundits now.

Bangladesh is playing poorly ever since they received the test status, but then Afghanistan is not doing that great either. Afghanistan is not even a part of the top tier test division, so at the most they play 1-2 matches per year. Now coming back to Bangladesh, I don't have much scope for them. Many of their senior players are close to retirement, including Shakib al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah. Once they retire from international cricket, Bangladesh will be in even more trouble. The younger players are still not performing up to the expectations.
Yes ,you are right. Like Pakistan, Bangladeshi cricket team is facing hard time because no player is of quality in the team of Bangladesh but we don't know what Pak team did when Bangladeshi team lost Pak team in test matches series.  But we are watching the same team against other teams after we concluded that Bangladeshi cricket board have to talk hard decisions because to there are many referenced players and they will not perform well in the team and Bangladeshi team ranking will go down on International level.West Indies International test cricket team won the match against Bangladeshi International cricket team and WI team won the match by 201 runs which is one sided win
Presently Pakistan and Bangladesh are facing difficult times but there are differences between them. Pakistan is not consistently performing poorly but Bangladesh is consistently performing poorly year after year. I think Bangladesh cricket will not improve as long as there are irregularities in the selection panel of Bangladesh Cricket Board. There are some players in the Bangladesh team who despite regular poor performances are given opportunities again and again while there are some talented players who are not given opportunities. If you look at the list of players of the Bangladesh team in the first test against the West Indies, you will clearly understand how weak this team is.

Bangladesh lost again, Bangladesh lost against West Indies by a huge margin of 201 runs. In this test too we saw that the batsmen of Bangladesh failed. West Indies declared the innings by 450 runs in the first innings. On the other hand, Bangladesh lost 9 wickets in the first innings and scored 269 runs and declared the innings. Bangladesh trailed by 181 runs in the first innings. However, West Indies were bowled out for just 152 runs in the 2nd innings. Bangladesh bowlers bowled brilliantly in the 2nd innings especially Taskin Ahmed bowled brilliantly, he took 6 wickets alone. Bangladesh went down to bat in the 2nd innings and were all out for 132 runs. Bangladesh bowling line is somewhat good but batting line is very bad. Bangladesh's opening batsman is not able to perform well in any match. Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Zakir Hasan they are playing badly regularly. In my opinion such bad players should not be allowed in the team. The Test series will be a two-match series, with West Indies leading 1-0 after winning the first match.
Bangladesh is not a strong and well performing team which is why they lose matches.  When they did not score runs, such a big margin must have been made, which is the great success of West Indies.  I think there was pressure from the West Indies and the lack of interest from the Bangladesh batsmen because of which they were not able to score runs.  Had they not given up their innings, the target would have been 600, which would have gone up even further in Bangladesh's defeat.  West Indies did not score so many runs in the second innings because they had a huge target in the first innings, which Bangladesh could not achieve, how could they achieve the total target.  But at the same time West Indies bowling also worked harder and allowed Bangladesh to score only 132 runs which was even more embarrassing for Bangladesh.

The first Test match between South Africa and Sri Lanka is being played today and South Africa has lost two openers in the beginning. We know that the Sri Lankan team is currently playing their game with more importance due to which they are performing well in every match and are able to achieve their victory. Accordingly, in today's match, we think that Sri Lanka will definitely perform well against South Africa and they are still the favorites to win. Since Sri Lanka has been able to start with a great bowling in the beginning, Sri Lankan bowlers may be able to put more pressure on South Africa. However, if South Africa can hold their wickets and bat patiently at the moment, then it is expected that they will be able to give a good lead.
Talking about the series between Sri Lanka and South Africa, today was their first match in which they were playing.  But the rain has delayed the match.But before that the South African batsmen were batting who have played 20 overs in which their batsmen have had a bad game their batsmen have lost 4 wickets and scored only 80 runs.  This rain must have been an advantage for South Africa as they will not be able to give Sri Lanka a tough target.If the match resumes sometime later it could be a loss for South Africa as their batsmen will not be able to score as many runs as they have scored in 20 overs.  Apart from this, they have also lost their opening 4 wickets which could have made them score more runs.Let's see if the rain stops in South Africa luck or not, if it stops, they will not be able to give such a special target in the first innings in this test match, which should be taken advantage of by Sri Lanka.
South Africa has lost its opening wickets. Team Sri Lanka seems to be in the better position as the match is delayed by rain. Previously South Africa had played a test series against the Bangladesh team and won it. On the other side, Sri Lanka has played against the New Zealand team and won the test series. So, both teams can be considered to be good in their form, and the pitch conditions will surely play an important role. For now the rain continues in Durban, and the forecast shows the rain to stop soon. Hope we can expect the match to resume within an hour.

South Africa will take on Sri Lanka in the first test today at Durban. This test match is utmost important when you think in terms of  World Test Championship. Sri Lanka are on the third position and South Africa aren’t behind too. Although they are on the fifth position but since the point difference is less, a win can take them up the table. Both teams will want to win this match and their position strong for the WTC.  By the way, New Zealand are also in the race , at number 4th at this time.



Every single match is important now a days in test matches because the World Test Championship is near and after 6 to 7 months, it will be played in the month of June 2025. Many of the matches and series are still to happen and I think everyone is in the race but India and Australia are on the top 2 and I think they both will play the final game as they did the in the last season of World Test Champion Ship and India was runner up. Tomorrow is the match of New Zealand against England and they can beat to Australia in the point table.

As long as Bangladesh's top order batsmen change, Bangladesh will not be able to win a Test match against any country. While the West Indies were bowled out for 152 runs in the second innings, Bangladesh's top order batsmen should have put in their best performance and tried to draw the match for now. Without doing that, Bangladesh were all out in the second innings for just 132 runs. In other words, Bangladesh proved that they faced a more terrible disaster than the West Indies. Bangladesh bowlers have done well but West Indies bowlers have done better than that as they have been able to give Bangladesh a hard time in every innings.
