BHW vs HHW Match Prediction & Analysis The Women’s Big Bash League 2024 has seen good games, and we expect a close contest as the Brisbane Heat Women take on the Hobart Hurricanes Women in the 10th game. The Brisbane Heat Women have done well and come here with a win over the Melbourne Renegades Women. The Hurricanes Women lost their last game against Sydney Thunder Women. TEAMS PREVIEW Brisbane Heat Preview Jess Jonassen’s team has looked good in both hames. They have won them comfortably, and the players look confident. It was a strong show from the players in the last game against the Melbourne Renegades Women, where they won by 28 runs. The team will look to build on this momentum and claim the top spot on the points table. Hobart Hurricanes Preview Elyse Villani’s team lost the last game against Sydney Thunder Women by 33 runs. The team’s poor batting effort resulted in their loss. The team has a poor record against Brisbane Heat Women, and Villani would like a better show from her batters as they have struggled in both games. Weather Conditions Melbourne will have clear skies. We should see a good batting surface. The ball would come onto the bat nicely, allowing batters to play their strokes freely. The side batting first in this game would be eying a total above 160 runs to feel confident, which is above the average first-innings score of 137 runs. BHW vs HHW Pitch Report The Junction Oval, Melbourne, is a good venue for the batters as they can hit through the line. The smaller size of the outfield makes it easy to score runs at this venue. Fast bowlers have also done so, as there is a lot for them on this surface with the new ball. Spinners have struggled here due to the short dimensions of the ground. Toss: To Bowl It is a fast track, and fast bowlers will enjoy bowling early in the game. The batting conditions shall become better as the game progresses. Both sides would look to make early use of the conditions and will likely put the opposition into bat after winning the toss.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sydney Sixers Women vs Melbourne Stars Women𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Nov 01, Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:45 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : North Sydney Oval, North Sydney, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Womens Big Bash League, 2024 Stars look for a comeback in Sydney Sydney Sixers Women vs Melbourne Stars Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SYSW vs MLSW Match Prediction & Analysis Melbourne Stars Women have begun their campaign on a losing note. A disappointing run chase followed a brilliant bowling performance. MLS Women were bowled out for 109 runs while chasing a 123-run target. TEAMS PREVIEW Sydney Sixers Preview Sydney Sixers Women were close to a second victory while chasing 172 runs in the last match against Adelaide Strikers. In the opening game, Sarah Bryce helped see the Sixers home even after the collapse. In this game, she scored even bigger but her 62 off 44 balls knock couldn’t help secure a win for the Sixers. They needed 31 off 22 balls with 6 wickets in hand when Bryce was dismissed in the 17th Over. Melbourne Stars Preview Melbourne Stars Women will be taking on a struggling bowling attack of the Sydney Sixers. They will back themselves to bounce back with the bat as they come to Sydney. Stars’ bowling attack has great variety and their key players are in great touch. Marizanne Kapp, Kim Garth, and skipper Annabel Sutherland are the key bowlers in this squad to watch out for. Weather Conditions The weather will be partly cloudy on the match day in Sydney with chances of showers during the match. We should expect a complete T20 game, nonetheless. In the worst-case scenario, we could lose a few overs from both innings. SYSW vs MLSW Pitch Report It is a great pitch for an exciting T20 match. Both bowlers and batters have found help from this surface and have made the most of it. The average 1st innings score at this venue is 154 runs in the last 10 outings. However, a match-winning total will be something over 175 runs. Toss: To Bat Though it is a balanced pitch where both batters and bowlers find help, teams should back themselves to defend a total here. Teams batting first have won 7 of the last 10 matches at this venue. Sixers cannot rely on their lower middle order to deliver a big finish and neither can the Stars.

OMA vs UAE Match Prediction & Analysis We are in the 41st Match in the ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup League Two 2023-27. Oman will be up against the United Arab Emirates in a crucial game for both teams. They have struggled with consistency and must win here to keep hopes alive. Oman has won only twice in the tournament. It has been even worse for UAE as it has been only one win for the Emirates. TEAMS PREVIEW Oman Preview Aqib Ilyas’s team has struggled with consistency. They have won only twice in their eight games in this tournament and dropped to 6th place on the points table. They will look to make a strong comeback in this game, as their opponents have also struggled. Ilyas would like a strong show from his batsmen, who haven’t had a great run this year. United Arab Emirates Preview Muhammad Waseem will feel upset with his side’s form this year. They have hardly won anything and have struggled against lower-ranked teams. The side has managed to win only once in the tournament and is struggling at the bottom of the points table. Waseem will look to lead from the front and take his side to victory. Weather Conditions We shall see clear skies in Al Amerat, and the conditions shall be hot at the start of the game. The wicket is flat, and batsmen can easily score runs on this surface. However, they must be careful about balls that stop on them. The average first innings score here is 273 runs, and the team batting first will look to have 300 on the board. OMA vs UAE Pitch Report Al Amerat Cricket Ground has a flat surface and a fast outfield. Big scores are made here, and batsmen can easily score runs in boundaries. Fast bowlers don’t have much on this wicket, as the bounce is low. Spinners have done well, as the ball can turn sharply. Toss: To Bat Batting conditions are best at the start of the game here. The wicket can wear in the second half, and spinners dominate the game. Most teams have so far preferred to bat here and have won games. Both captains shall have this in their minds, and the one winning the toss shall look to bat first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : India vs New Zealand𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Nov 01, Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 09:30 AM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai City, India𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 3rd Test 2024 For India to confirm a spot in the World Test Championship (WTC) final, they need to win at least four of their remaining six Tests, including the next one in Mumbai against New Zealand. India vs New Zealand TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview Team India have a lot to ponder as they get ready for the final Test of the series in Mumbai. They have been thoroughly dominated in the first two Tests by a clinical New Zealand and need to get their act together fast. New Zealand Preview New Zealand have punched above their weight and have scripted a historic Test series win against India. They have been thorough in both the Tests and are looking good for making it 3-0. This has been a thorough team performance, with many heroes putting their hands up at crucial moments. In the previous Test, it was Mitchell Santner who took 13 wickets to destroy India’s batting unit on a spin-friendly surface. Ajaz Patel and Glenn Phillips have provided him solid support, while Tim Southee and William O’Rourke have been on point. Weather Conditions The pitch at the Wankhede Stadium is a balanced track with support for batters and bowlers alike. It will likely be great for batting on the first two days with some assistance for fast bowlers, particularly in the morning session. There will be help for spinners, but it remains to be seen whether they prepare a rank turner. We reckon it should start turning more as the game progresses, but batters too will have a good time here. The pitch usually facilitates good bounce for the spinners and the fast bowlers. The weather in Mumbai for the five days of the Test is expected to be sunny, warm, and clear, with periods of light winds. It should be pleasant in the morning session. IND vs NZ Pitch Report The average score batting first at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai is 339. The highest total posted at the venue is India’s 631 versus England in 2016. This is unlikely to be a high-scoring Test, and the team batting first will look to set a score of around 350-400 runs. Batting in the first innings has been good here over the last six Tests, with 400-plus scores achieved five times in these matches. Toss: To Bat Both teams will be looking to bat first to put on a big score in the first innings and get ahead in the Test.

STW vs HHW Match Prediction & Analysis We have had a good start to the Women’s Big Bash League 2024, and there have been exciting games. In the 7th game, the Sydney Thunder Women will be up against the Hobart Hurricanes Women, aiming for their first win this year. The Hurricanes Women will feel confident having defeated the Sydney Thunder Women in their opening game and look to build on this momentum. TEAMS PREVIEW Sydney Thunder Preview Phoebe Litchfield will be upset with her team’s performance in their season opener. They batted poorly in the last game, going down by 31 runs. The top and the middle orders let the team down. Litchfield would like a strong comeback from her players as they take on the same opposition and have struggled against in recent seasons. Hobart Hurricanes Preview Elyse Villani will be proud of her team’s performance in the last game. They started as the underdogs in the last game but delivered a strong punch with the ball. Their record against Sydney Thunder Women adds to their confidence, and Villani would like a better show from her batters as they looked a bit rusty. Weather Conditions There would be odd clouds over Sydney, but the pitch would be good to bat on. The new ball would move around a bit in the early overs, and the bowlers must make an impact in the early overs. The side batting first will have to target a score of 160 runs, with the average first-innings score being 143 runs. STW vs HHW Pitch Report North Sydney Oval is a small ground, and batters have enjoyed scoring runs here. The shorter boundaries around the square allow batters to free their arms quickly. Fast bowlers get early assistance, but spinners have struggled to make an impact in the games. Toss: To Bowl Setting up a score on this track would be challenging as the ball would do a bit in the early overs. Bowling first is considered a safer option in T20 cricket, so we believe the side that wins the toss will opt for bowling first here.

On a good batting strip at the Adelaide Oval, the Renegades put up 178-8 on the board. That didn’t prove to be enough as the Sixers romped home with one over to spare.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : India Women vs New Zealand Women𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Oct 29, Tuesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:30 AM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 3rd ODI 2024 The big fight after two competitive games India Women vs New Zealand Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. IND-W vs NZW Match Prediction & Analysis We are all set for a thrilling end to the three-match series, with the two teams level at 1-1 after the first two games. India Women suffered a 76-run loss in the last game to concede the lead to New Zealand Women. Poor bowling and batting from the Indians led to their loss, and the hosts will look to recover from that. The Kiwis will be happy with their form and aim to build on the momentum. TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview Harmanpreet Kaur will feel let down by her players in the last game. The batters and bowlers had a poor day at the office in the last game, and the team lost by a big margin. The side has struggled with its consistency in recent months. Their pride is at stake, and Kaur would like her players to mount a strong comeback and win this series. New Zealand Preview Sophie Devine’s team will be confident after their strong comeback in the last game. The team struggled in the first game and performed clinically in the last contest with the bat and the ball. They have put the hosts under pressure, and Devine would like to take advantage of that with a strong show. Weather Conditions The skies over Ahmedabad will be clear, and we expect a good batting surface. There will be a bit of slowness, creating doubt in batters’ minds. These are ideal bowling conditions for the spinners. The average first-inning score at this venue is 220 runs. The side batting first will be happy to have 260 on the board. IND-W vs NZW Pitch Report Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, offers something for the batters and bowlers. The wicket can surprise batters as the slowness makes the ball stop on them. Fast bowlers don’t have much going for them on this track. The ball turns sharply, making it a good track for the spinners. Toss: To Bat In the last two games, we have seen big wins for the teams that have batted first. The wicket was good to bat on in the first innings, and the character was changed in the second half. The team winning the toss won’t hesitate to bat first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Bangladesh vs South Africa𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Oct 29, Tuesday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 09:30 AM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chittagong, Bangladesh𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd Test 2024 Bangladesh are yet to beat South Africa in a Test match. Bangladesh vs South Africa TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. BAN vs RSA Match Prediction & Analysis After securing a commanding win in the first Test versus Bangladesh, the touring South African side will be eager to win the second Test too. A 2-0 win here will boost their chances of qualifying for the World Test Championship final. On the other hand, Bangladesh have plenty to address, especially within their top order, which must step up their game if they aspire to stage a comeback. TEAMS PREVIEW Bangladesh Preview Bangladesh will be sorely disappointed with their performance in the first Test of the series. They were bundled out for 106 in the first innings and were reeling at 112-6 in the second, before Mehidy Hasan Miraz (97) and Jaker Ali (58) helped take them to 307. That still wasn’t enough as South Africa cantered to a 7-wciket win. South Africa Preview South Africa couldn’t have asked for a better start to their white ball tour of Bangladesh. Despite missing regular captain Temba Bavuma and despite having a relatively inexperienced batting unit, they put up a spirited performance to register an emphatic 7-wicket win. Weather Conditions The pitch at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium will favor spinners. However, it won’t be as difficult for batting as the pitch in Dhaka. The first two days of the Tests will be the best time to bat. As the match progresses, the ball will grip the surface and turn more. Seamers too will find movement off the pitch in the morning session. The weather in Chattogram throughout the Test will be hot and humid with sunshine and a few clouds. The sun will beat on hard during the day and players might tire out quickly. There is no forecast of rain so we should get an uninterrupted game. BAN vs RSA Pitch Report The average first innings score at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium is 380. This is more or less what both teams will target in their first innings. It won’t be easy, though, once the pitch breaks and starts to turn. Toss: To Bat 10 of the 24 Tests played at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram have been won by the team batting first; 7 have been won by the fielding side and 7 have been drawn. We reckon, both teams will look to bat first and put on a decent total to get ahead in the game.
