Editor’s Pick (ODI): Pakistan

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

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.

Key Players: India - England

When there is nothing left, you will play for pride. That is what India has to do tomorrow. Considering the fact that the match is taking place in Mumbai. Do it for them. Do it for us. England and Australia will meet each other at the finals on 31st March. India and England are more than likely to go in with the same playing eleven.
India Terribly low on morale, the team will now have to give it their all. They need to know that they are much better than this.
Key players Smriti Mandhana H Kaur Jhulan Goswami J Rodrigues Pooja Vastrakar
England The team has been doing really well since day one. They will now consider this as a practice match. But they will want to win and go to the finals with confidence. They were thumped by Australia earlier in what can be called as a one-sided game. They want to win this tomorrow.

Editor’s Pick (Nidahas T20): India - Sri Lanka

The table is currently in a very surprising situation. Most expected Sri Lanka to show Bangladesh the door. But here they are still standing up and shining. The tournament is wide open. Today’s match is between India and Sri Lanka. The stakes are much higher now that Bangladesh is more feared than before. The teams would not want to risk anything at this point. Earlier I had said that they might experiment with the lineup and give everyone a chance. Now it will be more than giving people a chance. They will strategize. The Indian team will be open to experimentation, but not at the cost of results.

The untested ones are Deepak Hooda, KL Rahul, and Axar Patel. India has lost to Sri Lanka in their first encounter of this tournament. They will want to be wary because another defeat could cost them the tournament itself. So, not all the new players will see the light today.
A lot depends on Rohit Sharma today. Shikhar Dhawan, Suresh Raina, Manish Pandey and Dinesh Karthik will chip in too.…

Game on...
