Aussies are the first finalist.
Indians have their one leg in the door and need to win BGT by 2-1 or 2-0
Sri Lanka's chances are still there if they clean sweep Kiwis in away tour.
South Africans were humiliated by Kangaroos and now they need to whitewash the Windies at home and hope India and SL lose their respective series.
South Africa or India have the best chances to take the second spot in my opinion. Am expecting South Africa to whitewash the Windies, India to draw or barely win against the Australians and NZ to win against the Lankans.

India need to give it their best since Australia are decimating everything in their way these days. Exciting stuff.

When politics takes a reliable place on the cricket board, it affects the players as well. You can be a good player, it doesn't matter how well you play, is not included in the national team if there is even the slightest doubt you have relationship with the opposing political parity. Even though you will not given a chance to play. Such images have also been seen on various cricket boards. There will definitely be changes in Pakistan cricket. As there is a new shift in responsibilities, there will definitely be a change in the game. The previous Test match between New Zealand and Pakistan was finished by draws. How much their game has changed will be seen in the coming days.
Political intervention into the sports activities can be seen much on the Asian countries. I'm not aware about the involvement of political pressure into Western boards. It looks like they've got separate authority that takes the responsibility and takes decision. For this reason we can see the best from them playing without pressure.

There is no doubt that it is apparent that the Pakistan Cricket board does not have enough confidence in their own players. Otherwise, I think a lot of test matches could have an end result. In order to achieve a draw, the Pakistan Cricket Board is simply going to prepare a batting pitch. If the shorter format is implemented, I hope that they will give their players a pitch on which they will be able to show their skills to their coaches.


The other test match between Pakistan and NZ will be starting in Karachi today.
I have not been able to  watch the match lately and I am more interested in knowing how did Pakistani people react - after NZ team came back to Pakistan after so many years.

Today pakistan vs Nz three one day matches will start in Karachi . After NZ team ran away from the field a few years ago - this is the second time NZ team came to Pakistan
England team - gets so much appreciation from Pakistani fan everytime they visit Pakistan - I am not sure if Pakistani fan will show the same admiration to them

The real competition is between India and Srilanka. South Africa are out. I also doubt that Srilanka would be able to clean sweep Kiwis in a tour match. So the chance of India to reach the finals is pretty good compared to other teams. Still this table can change in the future.

Naseem Shah proves himself in times of need . He can be a good batsman in emergency situations like this so he needs to be worked on.
Pakistan could have won the match but risk was higher as they didn't have wickets in hand.
Team Pakistan has many shining star which shine time by time. Wink
By the way if they practice and focus more so they can easily get more weak points. Which they can improve later by practice. A popular quotation we have read many times that is " Practice makes man perfect". So Pakistan team will improve itself soon I think so.
Yes, Practice makes man perfect. This quote suits everyone and in every activity. It is like Pakistan team is away from cricket for a long and now once again getting back after the break. No team were touring Pakistan which truly destroy its performance. Now slowly getting back on track and can expect good development in the coming tournaments.
Team Pakistan progressed during the time of Ramiz Raja. But now with the arrival of new Chairman Sethi - who is the most controversial person.
But the decision of bring Sarfraz back in the team after 4 years seem to be a fine decision. Shahid Afridi was to be given due credit. But Shahid Afridi is also becoming controversial these days.

The third test between Australia and South Africa ended in a draw. It's South Africa first draw since 2017. The last time south draw a test match was against New Zealand in March 2017. This must be a relief for South Africa as they avoided a whitewash. After this win Aus are in test championship final.
And I think Australia can hold this position easily. Because if you look at their other competitors, they are far behind Australia. But in this case, India is in a good position but even then they are only two matches less than Australia where Australia has won ten matches But they lost four match and for that they got low rating .
And I think after Australia went ahead in the Test series with South Africa it became more difficult for others to get past them.

First of all, Pakistan will need to learn how to be consistent. And the cricket board will also need to show more confidence in the players. If you do not give the players a chance to prove themselves, how can they prove themselves?
To be consistent there is no magic solution, the only thing that will help is to take an appointment to a sports psychologist so that he can improve his confidence and majority of the top sports personalities does that. In my view Pakistan does give plenty of opportunities for players to prove themselves and any player who shows potential in the domestic matches will be fast tracked to their national squad and hence they had some legendary players.

The third test between Australia and South Africa ended in a draw. It's South Africa first draw since 2017. The last time south draw a test match was against New Zealand in March 2017. This must be a relief for South Africa as they avoided a whitewash. After this win Aus are in test championship final.
If not for the rain, South Africa would have lost the match. Either way the bookmakers gave great odds for a draw for an obvious conclusion  Cheesy.

Did you forget that Naseem shah Hited Consecutive sixes in the T20 World cup and won the Match against Afghanistan?
This guy needs to spend more time on batting sessions for such emergencies.
Although Naseem Shah had hitted two consecutive sixes in the Asia cup against Afghanistan, but the atmosphere is different here. There is a big difference between the test and T20. He had done it in the Asia cup as there was no other option left. He was playing a bit safely to not get out in the test match

By saying that, I wanted to remind you that, if this guy spend more time on Batting session. He may help the team for such emergencies.

Don't waste your time by making these calculations. I strongly believe that India is going to be the second finalist of WTC championship.

Pakistan will have to fix the problems that are going on inside. If they do not fix the problems that they are facing in the cricket board, they are not going to be able to be successful in the long-term period. Pakistan does have some really good players on the team. But they will need to be carefully monitored and nurtured. Otherwise, they are also going to be lost in time.

That's true Pakistan has so many competent players that performs good , they just need proper guidance and training to be successful and win for Pakistan. 
Pakistani boards has too much politics inside and that is effecting players performance and growth . They need to work on these things to excel.

Australia vs South Africa test match have reached the final day. South Africa trail by 174 runs at the end of session 2. As a day's game isn't played due to rain, this match have turned to be a draw. If not this could've been a winning match for Australia. Already Australia leads the test series 2-0 and now it is a draw. So there is no more changes. The win keeps Australia strong for the upcoming tour of India.
The series is won by Australia 2-0. There is a great balance within the Australian team, coupled with one of the most cohesive units I have ever witnessed. This match is hard to judge due to West Indies' outclassing and South Africa's terrible performance. The real test will be in India. The chances of Australia winning this time around are better. The only balanced team in tests at the moment is Australia.
Agreed, rather than balanced performance I see consistency in the performance. India on the other hand have got good cricketing team, but it fails to perform as the team is moving to be player centric. Australia is different, if one isn't fitting the position the next one does it. Lets wait, in all means after Australia vs England it is India vs Australia which is very interesting to watch.
Australia and India are very strong teams in cricket and today's Australia vs South Africa match was a draw as Australia did not lose much points. England are not very weak in cricket and they are also very strong so if Australia vs India or Australia vs England the game will be very tight and such tight game is really fun to watch and the audience is also very happy to enjoy match with equal strong team
Australia overall dominated in this series and today's just due to rain the match ended in a draw otherwise Australia would have won this one too easily.  South Africa played good in T20 world cup but after that they didn't show any performances.
Australia on other hand is winning all the tournament and series and Is strongest among teams with India and Pakistan.
Maybe Australia could have won because their performance was so good. But unfortunately the match was a draw which was due to rain which might have been an opportunity for South Africa to draw the match otherwise they could have lost the match as well. However, after a long period of play, the match ended in a draw with both teams regretting that neither team could win.
