Editor’s Pick (ODI): India

Editor’s Pick (ODI): India - Sri Lanka

India has been totally dominating this tournament. Three out of three tests, two ODIs played and both won. The second match saw India win by D/L method. There was a lot of tension in the match despite it not being a high scoring one. Sri Lanka scored 231. India made it. With a lot of drama of course. Fernando was brought in at the 45th over. He managed two legal deliveries and then a wide that handed India her three-wicket victory. Out of the nine Indian batsmen, five of them didn’t even cross ten. Will that be a point of concern? Akila Dananjaya took six wickets. He looks like a good man on your team. I picked him.

This is the third ODI coming up. India is on top of their game and might possibly be open to experimenting and bringing in fresh talent. If you were the captain, who would you pick?

TNPL - A Brief Rundown

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.…

Editor’s Pick (Nidahas T20): India - Bangladesh

The tournament has reached a point that we all love. An exciting point where we still do not know who the finalists are. With just two matches to go and berth still wide open; the rest of the Nidahas tournament looks to be just as thrilling.
If India wins, India books a seat in the finals. If Bangladesh wins, the team takes the second place on the points table (or the first depending on the NRR) So while India should aim to win, an eye should be kept on the run rate at all times. Weather looks dicey as well. It might rain. D&L are prepared as well. Let’s also be. Picking a lineup at a rainy time is crucial. I would pick five batsmen to support a good score and a high run rate. With the batsmen of both teams playing rather well, you will have to pick carefully. Pick the more consistent ones. Bangladesh The team is on a high after the wins. The top five batsmen have clicked taking the team to a whole new level. The bowlers need to keep up with a more consistent line and length. India W…
