2 big tests incoming. Pakistan will look to take revenge in the second test against Australia on their home turf though their chances don't really look good. On the other hand, South Africa and India will kick off their test series.

Truly sucks that all of these teams need to play during the Christmas - New Year week which is the biggest festive week of the year.

What sucks more is that both teams need to play T20 matches more. They are playing ODI and test cricket which doesn't fit as the  2024 T20 World Cup starts from June. There respective boards should have thought more bilateral or trilateral series of T20 format than others. Ishan Kishan is not playing in the test series, he has been replaced by Bharat. The reason he gave was that he is suffering from mental fatigue which I felt is a weird excuse by the youngster.

I don't keep track of test cricket, but I'm hearing India has not won test series in SA ever. If it's really so, I'm looking forward to a good competition and hopefully India will end this drought.

Regarding, Pak vs Aussies, I don't have much hope from Pak, there are performing poorly whether it be batting, bowling, fielding or it be a captainship.

In the Test match between Pakistan and Australia I will favor Pakistan team. As I am a true supporter of Pakistan team I will always support Pakistan no matter which team they are playing against.
But recently they have been having a bad time as they have not played well in various major events especially in the Asia Cup and the recently concluded ODI World Cup.
Hope all Pakistan players come back in form and give their best performance to win matches against different teams.

Australia won with a great margin win by 360 runs. Again I don't think so that Pakistan has ability to win. By the way let's see.  Wink
Australia's chances are definitely better, but unexpected stuff happens all the time in this beautiful sport which is why Pakistan could surprise us.
Exactly they can give surprise but like @Themepen brief Pakistan is not looking much stronger as compare to Australian team. If we go through the first match so we can make a conclusion that Australia can win this match. But there is possibility that Pakistan can give surprise but not everyone sure about that we can just assume that Pakistan will perform good in tomorrow match.
There is possibility of Australia will take first in tomorrow match and Pakistan will out the Australian team under 300 runs. And Pakistan give 150+ runs lead. And After that Australia give only 80 runs target and then Pakistan will easily chase the target.

Yeah. It's crazy that a team like India couldn't win a test series in South Africa so far, but I feel that won't change this time around either. South Africa will probably win or draw the series in my opinion.

Do you really think this will happen? I don't think so the Pakistan has ability to take revenge from Australian team. Didn't you see what Australia done with Pakistan in first test match. In the first inning Australia made 487 runs. But  Pakistan made only 271 runs. After that Australia Played the second inning and were making good runs but they stopped at 233 runs. And the target was 450 runs. And Pakistan made only 89 runs which was really disappointed. Australia won with a great margin win by 360 runs. Again I don't think so that Pakistan has ability to win. By the way let's see.  Wink
Yes, Pakistan gives very poor performance in 1st test match against Australia. Pakistan lost this match very badly 360 runs a huge defeat in test match. I think Pakistan will make a good comeback by defeating Australia and level the series by winning second test match but problem is that Pakistan fast bowlers didn't perform well. Shaheen Shah Afridi only picked 1 wicket in 1st test match and now team management think they will take rest in next match. This is huge setbacks for Pakistan if Shaheen is not plying yesterday against Australia. Pakistan will look to add Hassan Ali or Mir Hamaza to playing eleven  in second test match.

The first test between India and South Africa will start by tomorrow. And the good news for India is that Temba Bavuma has been included in the squad (and that too as the skipper) yet again. So effectively they are playing with 10 players against India. The match will take place at the SuperSport Park in Centurion and the pitch is likely to offer equal amount of support for both the seamers as well as spinners. India is likely to go with 3 pacers (Mohammed Siraj, Jasprit Bumrah and Shardul Thakur) and one spinner (Ravichandran Ashwin).

India women's team won against Australia in the first and last test match. In this tour they will play a Test and 3-match ODI series and a 3-match T20I series. In the test match Australia lost all wickets for 219 runs in the first innings in contrast to India Women's innings of 406 runs. Which is a much bigger score than Australia. Even in the 2nd innings, Australia could not improve, so India women's team got a great win against Australia. Smriti Mandhana played consistently in both the innings for India Women's team. Jemimah Rodrigues scored 73 and Richa Ghosh also got a 52 runs in the first innings. ‍


It was the important question about the winning of the Australian woman team,Because the bowling of the Indian team made the Australia to keep the 219 runs.The second innings of the Australia was end with the 261 runs.But the first innings of the India itself made the 406 runs,So just 75 runs was the essentials on for the winning of the test series.It was easy made by the loss of only two wickets in the score of the second innings of 75 runs to complete the target.This was another shock for the Australian woman team against Indian Women team.

I don't think that the Pakistan team will win the coming match because of the low performance of the Pakistan team against Australia in the first match. The Pak bowlers are getting down one by one and they are replaced by other players. The test match needs good and fit players because the match goes for two or three days so how does an unfit player show a good performance? After the first match, the Pakistan team failed in all aspects like in fielding bowling, and as well as in bating. I don't know how they played like an emotional guy who did not care about the team but only focused on his performance. The fielders are also not good they are missing catches, in the test matches the only way to end the inning is to bowl all the players so when they miss the catches they will win the match.

Boxing day test match will kick off on 26 Dec and Pakistan bowlers are continuously getting injured. Latest is Noman Ali, who is ruled out of entire test series because of appendicitis and is replaced by Nawaz. There is not much chance of Pakistan winning second test because not there bowlers nor batsmen are in form. The best Pakistan can do in this test series is to avoid a whitewash. This is what happen to you if you dont pay respect to test cricket.    

I don't see any chance of the Pakistan team winning or drawing this match. The Australian team is going to dominate this match like they did in the first match. Before the first match, I thought they only lacked in the bowling side, but they are lacking in every side now it seems. Their batting isn’t good, their fielding isn’t good either. I have lost counts of how many catches they have missed and how many runs they gave for free.

As for the India vs South Africa match, I think it will be a 50-50. The match is in South Africa and South Africa are quite good there. India’s bowling side is quite good, they need to focus on their batting more. South Africa got the advantage in their home soil which puts them in the advantage. This match will be more interesting than the Australia vs Pakistan one.

As I said in the last post that the Indian women's team is more likely to go into this test match than the Australian women's team but the result has happened. In the second innings, the Indian women's team secured victory against the Australian women's team by keeping 8 wickets in hand. Australia Women showed some hope in the second innings but were bowled out for just 261 runs, setting an easy target for Indian Women. India Women's team may now be gearing up for the ODI series against Australia Women's after pulling off a resounding win against Australia in the only Test match. 
Congratulations to India Women's team for beating Australia Women's team by a huge margin in the only Test match.

Yes, I also said that this match was heading for the victory of Indian team. But I did not expect it to end today. I expected Australia would push it for a draw by batting for longer but they couldn't and got all out at 261 just setting the target of 75. It took the Indian team 18.4 overs to chase this. They finished it in session 2 of Day 4.

What the Indian team has done is amazing. No one could say they expected India to win against Australia but they did it in a dominating fashion. Australia is a very good test playing nation. Sneh Rana was the Man of the match for this match deservingly. She took 7 wickets in total. They got 3 match ODI series coming up starting from 28th December and I think this would be going the way of India as well.

India women's performance was excellent which led to a huge win with Australia women's team by 8 wickets today. Australia women's team had a poor performance from day one due to which they could not collect good runs and lost to India women's team till the last minute. India Women's team had a good run in the first innings due to which Australia Women's team could not meet that target and eventually they lost the Test match. However, the performance of the India women's team was very good and their batting and bowling performance won the Test match. India were not under too much pressure on the fourth day and they easily met the target set by Australia Women and won the Test match.
In last few years we are having good improvement in Indian performance in all formats with men and women both are on good improvement and giving their best which is impressive in last few days we have two backs to back test win for them at home which is surely starting of a new era in Indian women cricket and WIPL is already doing good job for the improvement of finances and other which are also important for them hopefully now things will be on positive for them in long run, and we will be able to watch these Indian women to challenge in all formats for the big Australian and English women.

Even still this is just a start but with solid strategy and consistency things can go good and Indians monopoly can increase their hold on these gentlemen's game for many years in the future.

Wow, that's great news! Congratulations to the Indian Women's cricket team on their impressive victory against Australia. It must have been an exciting match at Wankhede. What were the standout performances or moments from the game that you enjoyed the most?"

An excellent morning for Indian W. They took the last 5 wickets way too quickly and gave only 28 runs.

Now they have a chance to create history if they successfully chase down the target of 74 runs, it would be their first test win against Australia. Chase shouldn't be tough even if there is some sort of mini collapse because the target is not big.
Indian Women International test cricket team played very well and they won the match by 8 wickets. Mandhana remained not out at the end of match and  she played very well and made 38 runs in 61 balls.Indian Women team  also  played very well in the first inning of match.Deepti Sharma played good inning and she made 78 runs and played a good role for winning match of Indian team. Mandhana played very well in first inning and she made 74 runs in just 106 balls.Indian Women bowlers also played a good role for winning match. Especially Sneh Rana  took 4 wickets in 22 overs. She made an excellent bowling in test match. Harmanpreet Kaur also performed good bowling and took 2 wickets.

Australia Women's Team vs India Women's Team India Women's Team batting today in the fourth day's match. We saw that Australia women's team took the field against India yesterday and fulfilled the target set by India and gave India a lead of 75 runs. Today India team is going to meet that target and come out on a huge field and already they have lost an important wicket, India Women's batsman Shafali Verma got out early so today's match may be under a bit of pressure. However, they can easily fill the lead provided by Australia women's team because Australia could not give much target. And if Australia women team can perform well against India then India can put pressure on women team, but I think India women team will definitely succeed in meeting their target in today's match.
It was a great team effort by the India Women's team as they secured their maiden Test win against Australia and it was a historic moment for the team. The Indian women's team has won two consecutive Test matches at home, first against England, today against Australia. At the beginning of the day, the Australian women's team managed to score only 28 runs. Vastrakar and Rana put in a really good effort to restrict Australia's batting line-up on crucial wickets and the rest of the bowlers followed suit to finish the innings strongly. Despite falling two wickets short of an easy target of 75 runs, it did not take long for the Indian women's team to secure victory.
This game was concluded now and India women team easily won this test game form Australia women team. In first inning of India women team was going well and India scored 406 runs in this inning and Australia-W team scored total 480 runs in both inning and India-W team scored 75 runs in second inning with lost of two wickets Richa Ghosh and Shafali Verma. Smriti Mandhana batsman scored 38 runs in 61 balls and he hitted six 4s and not dismissed. Jemimah Rodrigues  also scored 12 runs in 15 balls and he hitted two 4s. In this game, India-W team effort was very well and this was one off test game.

As expected the match didn't last very long, and I predicted that AUSW tail will fall too easy in the morning session that is what happened exactly and back to back record by INDW now they will face them in ODI followed by T20 each consists of 3 matches.
