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

By
The first ODI was quite something. Pakistan won the first match and by 83 runs. They take the lead in the five match series so far. The team showed an all-round performance. There was never a shortage in talent and quality when it comes to the Pakistan team. It is just a question of nerves and being able to stand up to pressure. Well they can also work on being consistent and not wait for the last minute. This goes not just for the Pakistan Cricket Team, that much I assure you.

Sri Lanka has to work on their bowling department. They gave away way too many runs. Letting Pakistan get to a score of 292 is what they should not have done. One, the total is really high. Two, their nerves get affected when they see that number on the board. That could be an explanation as to why the wickets tumbled regularly. They gave Pakistan all the breakthroughs they needed to win the match by a whopping 83 runs. Shoaib Malik walked away with the MOM title.

Praveen Prav won the first fantasy cricket match on the app. Congrats. His lineup

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.…

Editors Pick ( PKL)

Not much cricket happening for the next two days. More time for Kabaddi now. We are in the month of October. Closer to the next round. The status of the teams on the Pro Kabaddi table matter big time now. It is time for the teams to keep an eye on their ranks all the time now. No pressure :)

Let’s take a look at the table. The top three teams in each zone make it to the next level. The points were very close at one point and then apart. Some teams have been super consistent doing well and others, consistently at the bottom of the table. Team A has four teams who are fighting for the next level big time - Gujarat Fortune Giants, Haryana Steelers, Puneri Paltan and U Mumba. Jaipur Pink Panthers and Dabang Delhi are closer to the bottom and will have to do really really well to make a difference. Zone B - the bottom two teams - Bengaluru Bulls and Tamil Thalaivas are not looking too hot. The top four teams are Patna Pirates, Bengal Warriors, U.P.Yoddha and Telugu Titans.

In a crux, any o…
