Editor’s Pick(Women’s Cricket): New Zealand - Pakistan

By
All the teams have played four matches as of today. Australia is on top now with four wins from four matches. With an excellent run rate of +1.3530, they have shown why are on top with their performance so far. Second on the table is India with four out of four wins too, but a lower run rate of +0.9140.

England is third with three wins from four matches. New Zealand and South Africa have two wins. Sri Lanka, Pakistan and West Indies are yet to open their score account.

New Zealand meet Pakistan. A NZ win could put them third on the table.

That’s enough preamble for now. Here’s my lineup.

Batsmen
Ayesha Zafar
Nahida Khan
Katie Perkins
Javeria Khan
Amy Satterthwaite

Bowlers
Holly Huddleston
Leigh Kasperek
Lea Tahuhu
Nashra Sandhu

WK
Rachel Priest
Sidra Nawaz

I would love to have Sana Mir and Suzie Bates on my list. My alternate lineup is based on the players’ recent performance

WK
-Rachel Priest

AR
-Suzie Bates
-Sana Mir

Bowlers
-Leigh Kasperek
-Holly Huddleston
-Lea Tahuhu
-Sadia Yousuf

Batsmen
-Nahida Khan
-Javeria Khan
-Katie Perkins
-Ayesha Zafar

Both Sana Mir and Suzie Bates cost 11. It is a tough choice. I removed Amy and added Katie and Ayesha, cos I was running out of points.

What do you think?

Editor's Pick (t20): India - South Africa

By
Whoever said ‘don’t make a habit out of it’ was not referring to winning. I do love writing ‘India won’ blogs and it is a pleasure to make a habit out of it as well. The Indian cricket team is most definitely making sure that the habit sticks. We are more than just on a roll in South Africa. We have found what clicks for us and we are making use of it. The best part is that almost all the players are performing. So we are actually open to experimenting and bringing in fresh faces. This way, not only do all the boys get the taste of playing, team South Africa is unable to get used to any one player long enough to figure out the style and a way to defeat it. Way to go Ravi Shastri and Virat Kohli. Talking about team selection. How is your selection going? Are you also listening to our audio podcast and getting that added advantage?
Let's get back to the matches. We lost the test matches. But we have won the ODI series in a landslide way. And are one up in the T20 series. We are repla…

By
The previous match, Trinbago Knight Riders vs Guyana Amazon Warriors, saw the Knight Riders win by seven wickets. Played at Queen's Park Oval, Port of Spain, Trinidad, Chasing a target of 158, TKR scored 162 in 19 overs. Colin Munro, their highest scorer, hit 70 runs. It was a fairly one-sided match with TKR staying on top for most parts.
The Knight Riders are right on top of the table, with three wins and one loss from four matches played. Their run rate of +1.680 will matter, for sure. DLS has been applied in this tournament and can be applied again. Barbados Tridents come second on the table with two wins from three matches. They earlier beat St Lucas Stars by 21 runs (DLS Method). This will be a close match, considering that both teams are in good form.
Barbados Tridents (From): Dwayne Smith, Kane Williamson, Shoaib Malik, Kieron Pollard(c), Nicholas Pooran(w), Christopher Barnwell, Akeal Hosein, Wayne Parnell, Imran Khan, Ravi Rampaul, Wahab Riaz, Raymon Reifer, Damion Jacobs…

TNPL - A Brief Rundown

By
Based on the stupendously successful Indian Premier League is the Tamil Nadu Premier League. This Indian T20 cricket league has been established by the Tamil Nadu State Cricket Association to bring out more and more Natarajans and Washingtons who otherwise do not get a chance to showcase their skill and talent in the world of Cricket. The inaugural edition of the TNPL took place in 2016 and received unexpected and unprecedented success and love. There was a brilliant batch of young men who came forward and made an event out of the first season of TNPL.

Venues 

India Cements Ground, Thirunelveli
NPR College Ground, Dindigul 
MA Chitambaram Stadium, Chennai 


Changes
The purpose of every organization is to make it bigger and better. TNPL is no exception. At the inaugural TNPL 2016, there were the traditional two semifinals and one final. This year will see a format similar to IPL. The finalists are decided by two qualifiers along with one eliminator. This format has proven to be more exciting.…
