The England team has won the match very easily and now I think in the next match, there are more chances for the England team as they are leading the series. New Zealand cannot got the lead of many runs in the second innings as they could only make 254 runs. Then the England team came to bat and chased up the target and won the match. The openers of the New Zealand team has not given a good lead to the team in both of the innings that was such a bad thing for them. Now let's see as still two matches of this series are left. Next match is after the break of 6 days at Wellington.

Both England and New Zealand are big names in Test cricket. England definitely did well in the last match and New Zealand's poor performance cost them. I will not talk about the last match.

The next match will be played in New Zealand's ground after 6 days on the 7th of this month. As a team, I cannot put any team ahead. But I think New Zealand will definitely come out to avenge their defeat at home. In Test cricket, we know New Zealand as a big name, and we will want to put New Zealand ahead in the second Test match at home. Maybe neither team will want to change the XI in the second match. Maybe New Zealand can go even if they see a change in the XI.

New Zealand have still chance to win if their bowlers do good in bowling and at the same time in batting they need some big partnerships. I am hoping good for the Daryl Mitchell who is playing at 31 runs. However with just four wickets in hand, how much target can they give to the England team ?

It is not about losing or gaining the points, Bangladesh team would want to win this test to square the series 1-1. On the other hand West Indies would like to win it in order to win the series. Such wins have a positive effect on cricket nations that aren't so strong. We know that both of them would be able to compete for ICC world Champion ship but still they have to win the matches for themselves.

We only had a 30 over game possible yesterday and i think Bangladesh did good surviving those initial overs and lost only 2 wickets. Shadman Islam made a 50 and he will start fresh today. If Bangladesh can reach 250-300 runs, it will be a big achievement. Kemar Roach was the most successful bowler who took 2 wickets but i was impressed with Jayden Seales as he bowled 5 maidens in this 7 overs.

The day started with the hard rain and there were less chances to see the match and just 30 overs game was possible yesterday but today is also a prediction about a little rain and tomorrow there will be heavy rain which is why I think the match might be drawn and might be we would not see the proper match.

By the way, yesterday the Bangladesh team won the toss and they decided to bat first that was not a good decision because already they lost two good batsmen and at the same time if their batsmen did nothing then it would damage their bowler's confidence.

However, Bangladesh team's victory in this match against West Indies team is a waste for Bangladesh team, so according to today's match, Bangladesh team will be forced to lose points if they cannot win.

The Test series between Bangladesh and West Indies is a no-points game. If a team loses here, they will not lose any points. Bangladesh was defeated by West Indies in the first Test match of the Test series between Bangladesh and West Indies. So if they lose the second test match like the first match then the test series will be lost to West Indies. Bangladesh team had many experienced players who have already retired from Bangladesh team. Bangladesh could have competed well in this test series against West Indies if they had those experienced players, Even Bangladesh's chances of winning would have been much higher.

Bangladesh cricket team does not have player who can hit ball strongly and confidently like teams from England Australia and India. Bangladeshi players seem to have trouble playing Test cricket because they get nervous and hesitant. They do not play as smoothly as players from other countries. Bangladesh recent wins against Pakistan in Test matches were unexpected but it is also true that Pakistan didn't have their best players. If Pakistan had played with their strongest team they might have won. If Bangladesh keeps playing carelessly they will probably lose match.

Bangladesh cricket team is lagging behind only because of the lack of experienced batsmen in the squad. And this problem is a long-standing problem of Bangladesh national team. Bangladesh squad does not have any batsmen who are capable of batting responsibly and playing big innings. The performance of every batsman in the squad is very erratic. This is why Bangladesh team is lagging behind.

I do not know why Mahmudul Hasan Joy is being given a place in Bangladesh squad in every match. I do not see this batsman batting well. Mahmudul Hasan Joy could probably collect 11 runs in the two innings of the first match against West Indies. Mahmudul Hasan Joy added only 3 runs to the scoreboard in the first innings of the second match.

At the end of the first day, Bangladesh scored 60 runs for the loss of 2 wickets. Shadman Islam is unbeaten with 50 runs from 100 balls.

There is no player in the Bangladesh team who can bat aggressively the way the players of England, Australia, India bat aggressively. Bangladeshi players do not have the temperament and courage to play Test cricket especially. How fluently the players of other countries play cricket while Bangladeshi players play cricket in nervous mode.

He really surprised by winning two Test matches against Pakistan. But if Pakistan's bowling was changed in that match, especially Sajid Ali and Noman Ali were included in the squad, then Bangladesh could not have won that match. Moreover, Pakistan had to lose these two matches due to some wrong decisions.

In today's match, of course, Bangladesh lost two wickets in the beginning but the only batsman Sadman Islam is trying to extend the innings especially since he is unbeaten on fifty runs. Mominul Islam, the reliable batsman of the Bangladesh team, did not perform well in the last Test match and this time too he was dismissed for 0 runs. If you play cricket like this recklessly, the possibility of losing Bangladesh in this match is certain.

The second Test match between Bangladesh and West Indies is going to be held. This match is very important for the Bangladesh team, if they do not win, the series will be lost. However, I highly criticize the Bangladesh players that they are playing very badly and their current playing situation is very disappointing. If the West Indies team can perform well in today's match like the first match, they will be able to lose to Bangladesh again. However, I will always blame the Bangladesh team that they are not able to improve their game in any way, and the Bangladesh team players are not even trying to improve their game. I do not believe that the Bangladesh team will be able to equalize the series result by playing against the West Indies in this match, it is impossible to expect a win looking at the performance of Bangladesh.

Well we start this test match with a rain delay, the game hasn't been able to start yet and we have lunch time at Kingston. Both teams are eagerly waiting for the rain to finish. Although it is quite sunny now but still i am not sure if the play can resume as there are a few patches in the outfield that are unsafe and wet. The next inspection is due at 1 PM local time which means that we have lost almost half of the day.

Also, this is a bowling wicket and with this rain, the toss will become even more crucial for both teams. I think the team batting first may lose quick wickets and may not be able to make a good score.

Game started successfully after delay of rain but game was stump at 69 runs and I think this game will abandoned because weather is not good and in coming day condition of weather will be same sometime game will start and sometime stop and most of time will waste due to rain high chance this game will abandoned. If this game will complete, I bet on West indies team who will win this game because Bangladesh already lost 1 st test game and their team effort not only poor in this series and they played fail series in past in all format. Bangladesh team won toss and got a chance to take first bat or bowl and they elected bat. Bangladesh team lost 2 wickets one opener and other was third Batsman both payed very worst. But effort of shadman is quite well and he complete half century and still not dismissal. Let's see what happens in next.

We have not seen good performances from Bangladesh in the last few years. And it is clear that the performance of this team is deteriorating day by day. Bangladesh was never a strong team in the Test format. The performance of this team in the Test format has always been weak. And now the Bangladesh team is not doing well in the ODI and T20 formats either.

A few days ago, the Bangladesh team won two Test matches against Pakistan in Pakistan. This was a completely unexpected event. In this series, the Bangladesh batsmen were able to perform excellently. But in every subsequent Test match, we saw Bangladesh losing by a big margin.

Bangladesh also lost the first Test match against the West Indies by a big margin of 201 runs. Bangladesh is likely to lose the second match as well. Because the performance of every batsman of Bangladesh is irregular. Especially the performance of the opener and the top order is very bad.

Bangladeshi International test cricket team performance is very bad in last few matches and after few months we will see Bangladeshi team more down because most senior players of that team will take retirement because they are old and they can't perform as young player plays. West Indies International cricket team is ahead because they won 1st match by high margin and we saw West Indies team as dominant team in last match. And now I am expecting same kind of performance because Bangladeshi players did not hard work and players are picked on reference basis and players are not picked due to their performance and that's why they could not play well in International matches.

You caught it right, but I would say that currently not only the Test format team of Bangladesh is performing poorly, rather than the Bangladesh team is very weak in all formats from T20 to ODI. And the main reason for this is that currently there are no good experienced players in the team and those who are there, they are not in their form.

Anyway, Bangladesh have already lost their first two wickets and today's match is stumped for just 69 runs. I am actually skeptical about the result of this month because the weather is not doing much favor in this match. Already some time of the match has been given due to rain. Now it is a matter of seeing what happens tomorrow and it may be that the match is finally declared abandoned. And if the match is not declared abandoned, then I will say again that the West Indies have a high chance of winning this match.

New Zealand got the lead back but at the same time, they have lost their many wickets that is not good and now they have to make 200 more runs to make them feel confident about the match otherwise I am looking England who seems more stronger than the New Zealand team but let's see how the things fold here.

New Zealand have still chance to win if their bowlers do good in bowling and at the same time in batting they need some big partnerships. I am hoping good for the Daryl Mitchell who is playing at 31 runs. However with just four wickets in hand, how much target can they give to the England team ?

Well just like I mentioned above in my previous post that English team Gona scored around 500 and they exactly done same. while now new Zealand were in huge trouble even after matching the required through handsome partnership of Williamson with his partner, but now after sixth wicket dismissal I believe if they even scored a 200 lead still it will not be a big deal for them. But the way england pacers are smashing new Zealand batter It look like they will hardly took a very minor lead so the best possible situation for new Zealand is to restrict england from victory to draw is to just hold his wicket as long as possible and rotate strike so that till last day they got a very decent target and provide a very small time to england so that match git draw or goes in favor of new Zealand

Looks like New Zealand will lose this match by a heavy margin. And this is good news for India. First of all, they defeated Australia in the first test and the momentum is with them. And secondly, New Zealand is struggling against England. This means that India's chances of qualifying for the ICC World Test Championship final has increased by leaps and bounds. But then, for India it is an uphill task. If they lose any of their remaining 4 matches against Australia, it will get complicated. South Africa are the favorites to top the points table as of now.

Yes, South Africa and Australia are favorites to qualify for the final of the world test championship. India has some chance, but they need to win the series against Australia. New Zealand gave a disappointing bowling and batting performance in his first test match. in the second inning, New Zealand lost 6 wickets at just 155 runs and only led by 4 runs in the second inning after losing more than half the team. England bowling performance is outstanding so far Chris Woakes picked 3 important wickets by giving 39 runs and Brydon Carse also pick crucial 3 wickets by just giving only 22 runs. I think England will win this match by 10 wickets because they need just four wickets, and hardly New Zealand will cross 200 runs in the second inning.

Unbelievable, England team made strong comeback in match and I think before that New Zealand squad displayed amazing performance in batting and they managed 348 scores in first inning and they will this match but I don't know that England squad has great potential and their members achieved all scores of New Zealand and further they trail with 158 scores. Now New Zealand batters are at crease to play their second batting Inning and their first two starter batters were cleared out and did not express good performance both Devon Conway and Tom Latham collected 1 and 8 scores respectively. Kane Williamson supported their squad in both innings and in current inning, he managed to collect 62 scores. But still their members have less possibility to emerge victory in this test match after seeing tremendous performance of England squad in first inning. This one will be interesting match in test format.

The England team is most likely to score 500 runs in this match, because the England team is performing quite well in this match. The two players who have formed a partnership now, Stokes and Gus Atkinson, these two players are quite skilled, but among them, Captain Stokes is quite experienced. If he can survive, then I think it is natural for 500 runs to be scored in this match.
Because in the end, the England team players have performed well, but the New Zealand team players are not performing well in terms of bowling. However, I think that if England can give a high target of runs in this first innings, it will be a huge advantage for the England team in the last match.

New Zealand got the lead back but at the same time, they have lost their many wickets that is not good and now they have to make 200 more runs to make them feel confident about the match otherwise I am looking England who seems more stronger than the New Zealand team but let's see how the things fold here.

Yep, The first Test match player, South Africa and Sri Lanka, was played in which I kept both teams on equal footing, which meant that their match was interesting, but Sri Lanka's performance was very poor, due to which they lost this first test match by 223 runs. The South Africa batsmen have played very well in this game as they were given a target of 192 in the first innings and 366 in the second innings which was a very good target. The Sri Lanka batsmen scored 42 runs in the first innings and 282 runs in the second innings which would have been a very poor perform. If the Sri Lanka batsmen had played well in the first innings and scored runs against South Africa they could have played well in the match and won the match. Their bowlers also could not stop the runs in the second innings, due to which they had to suffer a loss.

I also thought before the first match that Sri Lanka and South Africa had equal chances of winning. Because in the last few series we saw good performance from Sri Lankan players. But Sri Lanka completely failed to bat well against South Africa.

In the last few series Sri Lanka has performed well against New Zealand, England and West Indies. And probably Sri Lanka won every series. Sri Lanka won both the Test matches against New Zealand. However, each of these series was Sri Lanka's home match. In every match we saw Sri Lanka's domination clearly.

If the series against South Africa had been Sri Lanka's home series, then I think Sri Lanka would have been able to win the first match as well. But Sri Lankan batsmen failed to bat well on the South African pitch. That's why Sri Lanka lost the first match by a big margin of 233 runs.

It is not unreasonable to make your prediction based on the current situation of the Bangladesh team. Even so, in today's second Test match, how much the Bangladesh team's players can change the pace of the game will be clearly understood only when they face the West Indies team on the field. The start of this match is being delayed a bit due to the wet outfield. Hopefully, we will be able to enjoy the game of today's second Test match in a very short time. Although the Bangladesh team has performed very badly in the first Test match, I will still see the Bangladesh cricket team as the favorite team in today's second match.

Bangladesh's spinners were not helpful in the first match especially Mehdi Hasan Miraj and Taijul Islam did not get much advantage. In today's match, there is certainly moisture in the outfield, so maybe the spinners can get an extra advantage or the pacers can get a better turn. The second match is yet to be tossed so the toss can largely decide the fate of this match. For now I feel fielding is better than batting to toss. In today's match, Taskin Ahmed and Hasan Mahmud may get extra turning, so the result of the match may change. We expect Bangladesh to play better in the second match than in the first match as a support.

Bangladeshi International test cricket team performance is very bad in last few matches and after few months we will see Bangladeshi team more down because most senior players of that team will take retirement because they are old and they can't perform as young player plays.

In the first innings, 191 runs all out and 366 runs in the second innings declared, South Africa managed to set a big target. Sri Lanka need 413 more runs to win this Test match against South Africa where they have only 5 wickets in hand.

In the first innings, Sri Lanka were bowled out for just 42 runs against South Africa and in the second innings they have so far managed to accumulate 103 runs for 5 wickets. South Africa will try to put more pressure on Sri Lanka from the start of the fourth day and they will try to pick up wickets and with the current position Sri Lanka are in, Sri Lanka will be all out against South Africa before the end of the first session of the fourth day.

After Sri Lanka lost all their wickets for just 42 runs in the first innings, we were sure that Sri Lanka was going to lose this match. South Africa had a small total in the first innings. South Africa managed to score 191 runs. Even then, the South African team took a big lead of 149 runs.

This result was expected. When Sri Lanka made 42 runs in the first innings, we all knew that it was not possible for Sri Lanka to come back in this match. Still i think that in too much pressure situation they did a good job making 282 runs in the 2nd innings.

There were some good innings by Sri Lanka in this innings where Dinesh Chandimal made 83 runs and Kusal Mendis made 48 runs and missed his half century by 2 runs. Also the captain Dhananjaya de Silva made a good innings of 59 runs.
