NZ vs SL Match Prediction & Analysis It is the first game of the three-match T20i series, and both teams shall look for an early lead. New Zealand had drawn the last T20 series against Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka and is playing at home; the side will count on its chances. The Sri Lankans haven’t done well outside the subcontinent in recent years, and this will be a big test for the team in this game. Sri Lanka has a poor record playing in New Zealand. They have won only once in the eight T20 games against the hosts. The side doesn’t have a strong bowling attack for these conditions. New Zealand has a strong fast bowling unit and shall look to leverage it. The history is against the Sri Lankans, and it will be interesting to see if they can turn it around on this tour. TEAMS PREVIEW New Zealand Preview Mitchell Santner and his team will start confidently in this game. They have done well at home and have the bowling attack to trouble the Sri Lankans in these conditions. However, Santner will know his opponents’ abilities to deliver a strong counterpunch and expect a strong show from his players. Tim Robinson and Mark Chapman will look to deliver a good start and put the team in a commanding position. The middle order is strong for the team, and they expect a good show in this game from Rachin Ravindra, Glenn Phillips, and Daryl Mitchell. Mitchell Santner, Zakary Foulkes, and Mitchell Hay strengthen this batting lineup with their hitting abilities. The bowlers will enjoy bowling in these conditions, and the team expects Jacob Duffy and Matt Henry to rock the Sri Lankan top order. Mitchell Santner will look to use his experience and do well in the middle overs with Zakary Foulkes. Ravindra and Glenn Phillips add variety to this attack, making it strong. Sri Lanka Preview Charith Asalanka’s team will face a massive challenge in this game. They have struggled in these conditions, and their batting lineup has a history of struggling on fast and bouncy tracks. Asalanka would like his batsmen to take the challenge head-on and do well in this game to take an early lead. Pathum Nissanka has enjoyed good form in recent matches, and he must deliver a good start with Kusal Mendis and handle the Kiwi fast bowling attack. Kusal Perera, Kamindu Mendis, and Charitha Asalanka make a rock solid. Bhanuka Rajapaksa and Wanindu Hasaranga are good hitters, and the team expects runs from them in the lower middle order. The bowling attack must use the conditions well for the team to win. Matheesha Pathirana and Nuwan Thushara must get early breakthroughs, as New Zealand has a strong batting lineup. Asitha Fernando and Wanindu Hasaranga will look to keep an eye on the scoring rate in the middle overs. Maheesh Theekshana and Kamindu Mendis must do well in the supporting role. Weather Conditions The skies over Mount Maunganui will have some clouds on December 28. The wicket would be challenging to bat, where the ball will bounce and move. The side that bats first in the game should be happy to score 180 runs or more, with the average first-innings score being 152 runs. NZ vs SL Pitch Report Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui, is a happy hunting ground for fast bowlers. They get the ball to seam and swing on this surface. However, the smaller dimensions of the venue also allow batsmen to play their strokes easily. Grass on the track makes it a very challenging place for the spinners to bowl. Toss: To Bowl The conditions will be good for bowling when the ball moves around at the start of the game. We have seen batting getting easier as the game goes on. Hence, the side winning the toss in this game shouldn’t hesitate to bowl first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : India Women vs West Indies Women𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 27 ,Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 09:30 AM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Kotambi Cricket Stadium Vadodara, India, India𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 3rd ODI 2024 India Women looking for clean sweep against West Indies Women India Women vs West Indies 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 WIW Match Prediction & Analysis India Women won the second ODI by 115 runs to gain an unassailable lead of 2-0 against West Indies Women. India Women also won the first ODI of the three-match series by a huge margin of 211 runs. India Women will take on West Indies Women in the 3rd and final ODI at Kotambi Stadium, Vadodara on 27th December 2024. India Women’s showed batting prowess in the first two ODIs to setup big totals against West Indies Women. The bowling topped it off with some excellent spells to win the series for India with a match to go. India Women will be looking for clean sweep in this third and last match of the series. TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview After winning the T20 leg of the series 2-1, India Women have sealed the 3-match ODI series against West Indies Women by registering another comprehensive victory by 115 runs in the second ODI. They have already won the first ODI by 211 runs. With the series in pocket, the India Women would go for the kill in the third ODI. In the first match, India Women posted 314 for 9 with Smriti Mangana top-scoring with 91 runs for India. Later, Renuka Singh took a maiden five-wicket haul to both West Indies out for just 103 runs, winning the game by 211 runs. The second ODI proved to be a run-fest. India Women piled up 358 for 5, thanks to Harleen Deol’s maiden international century, 115 runs, and opener Pratika Rawal’s innings of 76 runs. Jemimah Rodrigues and Smriti Mandana also scored valuable 50s. West Indies Preview West Indies Women’s weakness in batting costed them yet again as they are down 0-2 in the three-match series against India Women. It was a much better performance in the second ODI by West Indies Women, but their over-dependence in batting on Hayley Matthews was on display yet again. The first ODI was a total disaster for West Indies Women as they could not withstand a superb bowling spell from Renuka Singh and bundled out for just 103 runs, losing the match by a big margin of 211 runs. The second ODI was not too far away from the first one, except that Hayley Matthews scored a century that saved face for West Indies Women. In the run fest, after conceding 358 to India Women, West Indies Women managed to score 243 all out on the back of a superb century by captain Hayley Matthews. The rest of the WI back and right showed little to no spark, which has been the case throughout the series. Captain Hayley Matthews has been the standout performer for Western League with the pass, but the team needs to support her for Western League to have any chance of winning the third ODI. Their bowling has been below par with no noteworthy performances so far in the ODI series. This is the last match of the tour for West Indies Women. Having lost 1-2 in the T20I leg of the series. West Indies would love to, at the least, replicate the same scoreline in the ODI series as well and end the series on a winning note. Weather Conditions The weather on the match day at Kotambi Stadium, Vadodara is expected to be sunny and clear the temperature would range between 31°C to a low of 21°C. There is some humidity expected with a bit of cloud cover but there is no chance of rain on the match day. Looks like a perfect day to play cricket. IND-W vs WIW Pitch Report The Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara is a newly built cricket venue located on the outskirts of the city. Owned by the Baroda Cricket Association, the stadium boasts a seating capacity of around 35,000 spectators. It has hosted 2 international matches so far between India Women and West Indies Women. It’s been a good batting wicket so far with help for bowlers early on in the innings. Toss: To Bat Both the ODIs at Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara have ended in wins for team batting first. India Women batted first in both the matches and scored above 300 runs. It looks like a bat first wicket with some help for bowlers in the later stages. The team winning the toss should bat first here.

Adelaide Strikers vs Hobart Hurricanes, BBLT20, Today Match Prediction

Vann Hiso5 months ago5 months ago06 mins

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Adelaide Strikers vs Hobart Hurricanes 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 27 ,Friday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:45 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Adelaide Oval, North Adelaide, Australia 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Big Bash League, 2024-25 Adelaide Strikers have won four of their last five matches against Hobart Hurricanes. Adelaide Strikers vs Hobart Hurricanes 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. ADS vs HBH Match Prediction & Analysis Adelaide Strikers host Hobart Hurricanes this Friday evening at the Adelaide Oval in the 13th BBL 2024-25 match. The Strikers currently sit fifth with two points from three games. The Hurricanes also have two points, though from just two games. That said, the Strikers have had the better of the Hurricanes in recent encounters, which could give them the edge heading into this showdown. TEAMS PREVIEW Adelaide Strikers Preview Adelaide Strikers have managed just one win from three matches so far in their campaign. They are coming off a 3-wicket loss to Brisbane Heat, where they failed to defend 175 at the Gabba. Alex Ross and James Bazley have been the team’s top run-getters after the three matches, scoring over 70 runs each. The Strikers will be expecting a big knock from Matthew Short, the leading run-scorer in BBL 13. Chris Lynn and D’Arcy Short hold greater responsibility in carrying the batting lineup. D’Arcy has already struck a fifty and is looking in great touch. Hobart Hurricanes Preview Hobart Hurricanes began their season on a disappointing note with a loss to the Melbourne Renegades. However, they bounced back in style, clinching an impressive 8-wicket win against the Perth Scorchers. Chasing a target of 156, they reached it with four balls to spare, thanks to opener Mitchell Owen’s outstanding unbeaten knock of 101 off 64 balls. The team will be counting on Ben McDermott to deliver a standout performance. McDermott, who amassed 261 runs last season, has the ability to anchor the innings when needed. Shai Hope has shown stability at the crease and will be tasked with holding things together, while Tim David remains a key player for explosive hitting in the lower order. On the bowling front, Riley Meredith has hit his stride early, claiming 4 wickets at an economy of 8.25. Alongside Nathan Ellis, Meredith will need to shoulder the main bowling responsibilities, given the inexperience of the rest of the attack. Weather Conditions Adelaide Oval is typically a good batting surface for T20s. The ball tends to come onto the bat nicely, allowing for free-flowing strokeplay. Fast bowlers might find some early assistance, but the pitch usually settles down. Spinners could become relevant later in the innings as the surface potentially slows down but it’s generally a venue where batsmen can feel confident. The weather in Adelaide will be cool and pleasant – perfect for a full game of T20 cricket. ADS vs HBH Pitch Report The average score batting first at the Adelaide Oval is 166. The highest total posted at the venue is Sydney Thunder’s 232-5 versus Sydney Sixers in 2021, a game they won by 46 runs. The team batting first in this match will look to set a score of around 170-180 runs. Toss: To Bat Adelaide Oval generally favors teams batting first. In 74 T20s played here, 42 have been won by the team setting the target, a trend that continued in the opening BBL 14 game of the season. Therefore, it’s likely both teams will aim to bat first in this upcoming match.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Australia vs India 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 26 ,Thursday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 05:00 AM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Melbourne Cricket Ground, Richmond, Australia 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 4th Test 2024 Sydney Sixers vs Melbourne Stars 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. AUS vs IND Match Prediction & Analysis With the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series locked at 1-1, cricket fans worldwide eagerly await the highly anticipated fourth Test between India and Australia, set to begin on December 26, 2024—a showdown coinciding with the legendary Boxing Day Test. The Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne, will host the test between December and 30th December. In the last test, India survived the Australian pace attack with the help of the rain. Steven Smith and Travis Head’s centuries guided Australia to 445 in the first innings. India Managed to avoid the follow-on due to the 47-run partnership between Bumrah and Aksh Deep for the last wicket. India then bowled with great determination to force Australia to declare on 89 for losing seven wickets. The rain interrupted the game for the nth time before they decided to call it an end. Bumrah took 9 wickets in the test with six of them taken in the first innings. TEAMS PREVIEW Australia Preview Australia have bolstered their top order by adding Sam Konstas. The hosts face a significant concern as none of their three top-order batters have scored over a hundred runs in the series so far. Marnus Labuschagne, with a series-high of just 82 runs, underscores the struggles at the top. Usman Khwaja will open the innings with Konstas. Khwaja has played 6 tests at MCG scoring 422 runs at an average of 57. But Labuschagne has some bad memories at this ground averaging just 30. Steve Smith and Travis Head will come in the middle for Australia. Both scored centuries in the last game. Smith is familiar with MCG ground. In 18 innings, he has scored 1093 runs at an average of 78.07. This includes four centuries and five half-centuries. Travis Head is currently the leading run-scorer of the tournament with 409 runs at an average of 81.80. He will be the batter to watch out for. India Preview With the ICC Test Championship Final spot under threat, India will take the field with enormous pressure. Yashaswi Jaiswal will open the innings with KL Rahul. KL Rahul has been a standout performer for India in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy, showcasing remarkable consistency at the top of the order. The leading run-scorer for India has 235 runs at an average of 47. Jaiswal, his partner, is the third leading run-scorer of the tournament with 193 runs. but he lacks consistency. Shubhman Gill will come at number three. The prince’s form has been poor this year. In two tests, he has scored 60 runs. Virat Kohli will come in the middle with Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja. Kohli scored a ton in the first Test. Besides that, he has just 23 runs in the remaining four innings. His inability to play the offside balls has been the talk of the cricket world in the last week. Sharma has been out of form since the start of 2023. Since Jan 2023, Sharma has scored 1152 runs in 37 tests at an average of 32. But the shocking part comes when he faces the good-length balls. He averages 12 while facing good length balls for the last two years. Ravindra Jadeja scored 77 runs in the only innings he played so far. His average in Australia is now better than Virat Kohli’s. Weather Conditions The weather at MCG is expected to be cloudy on match day, with temperatures ranging between 17 and 29 degrees Celsius. Winds will blow from the southeast at 6-11 km/h. It gives a good balance for both bowlers and batsmen. Bowlers can benefit from the pitch in the early stages, which offers a nice bounce. As the game goes on and the pitch gets older, batsmen can play their shots comfortably. AUS vs IND Pitch Report The game will be played at Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne on 26th December onwards. The stadium has a capacity of 100000 spectators. The stadium has hosted 117 Tests, 161 ODIs and 27 T20s. Cricket’s first ODI match was also held at the MCG. Toss: To Bat In 117 Tests played here, the results have favored teams defending the target on 57 occasions while 42 have been won by the teams chasing it. The average first-innings score is 307 with the highest total of 624. The team winning the toss should bat first.

PRS vs BH Match Prediction & Analysis It will be an exciting Big Bash League 2024-25 clash. The Perth Scorchers will be up against the Brisbane Heat in the 12th game at home. The Scorchers have struggled in the last two games and went down against the Melbourne Renegades in their last game. Brisbane Heat will be confident heading into this clash after defeating the Adelaide Strikers in their last game. The Brisbane Heat haven’t enjoyed a good record against the Perth Scorchers. They have defeated them only twice in the last 10 games and aim to improve this record. The Scorchers have an excellent record at home. They have the fast-bowling attack to take advantage of the conditions at Perth Stadium, and we expect it to be an interesting contest. TEAMS PREVIEW Perth Scorchers Preview Ashton Turner and his men will be under pressure. After starting the season with a win, they have suffered back-to-back losses. It was a poor show with the bat in the last game against the Melbourne Renegades, which saw them lose by 2 wickets. They have a good record at their home ground, and Turner would like his players to draw inspiration from past wins. Finn Allen and Keaton Jennings have struggled with consistency, and the team needs them to deliver a confident start. Cooper Connolly is in good form and will look to build partnerships in the middle order with Turner and Josh Inglis. Matthew Spoors, Nick Hobson, and Ashton Agar are good hitters, and they are strengthening their batting. The bowlers have been in good form. Jason Behrendorff has troubled batsmen in all games, and he will look for early scalps, sharing the new ball with Matthew Kelly. Andrew Tye and Ashton Agar will look to use their experience and keep the scoring under check. Spoors, Turner, and Connolly make it a strong attack for the team. Brisbane Heat Preview Colin Munro is back in the side after sitting out in the first game due to an injury. He will be proud of his team’s efforts during the season. They have won both games and defeated the Adelaide Strikers by 3 wickets in a close contest. Munro will be aware of his team’s poor record against the Scorchers and look to improve it with a win. Jimmy Peirson has looked in good touch and must deliver a strong start with Colin Munro at the top. Nathan McSweeney and Matt Renshaw set up a match-winning stand in the last game, and they will look to add runs in the middle order with Max Bryant. Paul Walter and Will Prestwidge will look to do well in the lower middle order and take the team to a big total. The bowling attack is in good form, and the team expects a strong show from Matthew Kuhnemann and Xavier Bartlett with the new ball. Tom Whitney is an exciting new prospect for the team and shall look to do well in the middle overs with Mitchell Swepson. Paul Walter and Will Prestwidge add bowling options for the team. Weather Conditions It would be clear skies over Perth during the game on December 26. The ball would move around with a tinge of grass cover on the surface. Batsmen would have to be watchful against the new ball. The side that bats first in this game would be happy to score 170 runs on this track, with the average first-innings score being 144 runs. PRS vs BH Pitch Report The track at Perth Stadium is good for the fast bowlers, as there is pace and bounce on this surface. Batsmen who get their eyes in also do well on this track. The ball comes on to the bat nicely at this venue. Spinners find it tough on this track as they hardly have any assistance. Toss: To Bowl There would be assistance for the fast bowlers on this track, as the surface will make it tough for the batsmen in the game. Setting up a score here would be a challenge, and the side that wins the toss should have no hesitation in inviting the opposition to bat first.

SYS vs MLS Match Prediction & Analysis It is the Boxing Day clash in the Big Bash League 2024-25. The Sydney Sixers will look to build on the momentum as they take on the Melbourne Stars in the 11th game. The Sixers have made a strong start in the season and defeated the Sydney Thunder in their last game. The Melbourne Stars have struggled, going down against the Adelaide Strikers in their previous game. The Melbourne Stars are searching for their first win in this game. They will be under pressure after three consecutive losses, and the players seem low on confidence. The Sydney Sixers have won both their games and have lost only once in the last five seasons against the Melbourne Stars. The Stars must take the challenge head-on to win this game, and it will be interesting to see if they are up for the task. TEAMS PREVIEW Sydney Sixers Preview Moises Henriques and his team have made a strong start in the tournament. They started as one of the favourites and have lived up to with strong performances in both games. They defeated the Sydney Thunder in the last game by 5 wickets. They have a good record against the Melbourne Stars, and Henriques would like to win this game and retain the top spot on the points table. Josh Phillippe and James Vince are a strong opening pair, and the team expects them to deliver an electrifying start. Henriques has a lot of experience and shall look to guide the middle order and add runs with Jack Edwards and Jordan Silk. Lachlan Shaw, Ben Dwarshuis, and Joel Davies add depth to the line-up and will look to add quick runs. The bowling attack has delivered strong performances. Ben Dwarshuis and Akeal Hosein have used the new ball well, and the team expects early breakthroughs from the pair. Sean Abbott will aim to use his experience and bowl tight spells in the middle overs with Joel Davies and Jack Edwards. Todd Murphy adds depth to the bowling attack. Melbourne Stars Preview It will be a massive test for Marcus Stoinis’ team in their 4th game. The team has looked rusty in the tournament and went down against the Adelaide Strikers in the last game by 15 runs. The batting lineup is inconsistent, and the bowling attack lacks teeth. It is a must-win game for the team, and it will be interesting to see if they are up for the challenge. Sam Harper has been the only consistent batsman on the team, and he must deliver a strong start with Ben Duckett. Marcus Stoinis and Glenn Maxwell are the most experienced players in this team, and they will look to add runs in the middle order with Thomas Rogers. Hilton Cartwright, Beau Webster, and Tom Curran are powerful strikers and must do well. The bowling attack hasn’t troubled the opponents so far in the tournament. Adam Milne and Peter Siddle must strike early, as the Sixers have their batters in good form. Middle overs will be important, and the team expects Maxwell and Tom Curran to do well. Doug Warren and Stoinis must do well in the supporting role. Weather Conditions The weather forecaster predicts clear skies over Sydney on December 26. The wicket has been a tough one to bat on this season, as the two-paced nature of the surface has created doubts in the batsmen’s minds. The average first innings score is 160 runs, and the team batting first would like to have 180 on the board. SYS vs MLS Pitch Report Sydney Cricket Ground is not the easiest surface to bat on, and the batsmen must get their eyes in before playing their strokes. Fast bowlers get bounce and carry from the surface. It is also the best wicket for the spinners in Australia, as the ball turns sharply on this track. Toss: To Bowl The wicket at the Sydney Cricket Ground has been on the slower side this season. It won’t be an easy surface to set up a total with the bowlers finding assistance from the surface in the early overs. We expect the side winning the toss to invite the opposition to bat first on this wicket.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : South Africa vs Pakistan𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 26 ,Thursday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : SuperSport Park Cricket Stadium, Centurion, South Africa𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st Test 2024 Pakistan have never won a Test series in South Africa and have remained winless here in their last six Tests. South Africa vs Pakistan 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. RSA vs PAK Match Prediction & Analysis South Africa will face Pakistan in the first Test at Centurion on Boxing Day. Sitting at the top of the ICC World Test Championship standings, the Proteas need just one win from their two home games against Pakistan to secure a spot in next year’s final at Lord’s. Pakistan, who triumphed 2-1 against England in their October home series on spin-friendly tracks, prepared for this Test series by whitewashing their hosts 3-0 in ODIs last week. However, the Proteas are exceptionally strong on home ground, and overcoming them will require a special effort. TEAMS PREVIEW South Africa Preview South Africa may have come up short in the ODI series at home against Pakistan, but their Test squad is a different story. The team recently whitewashed both Sri Lanka and Bangladesh and will be eager to continue their winning streak. Temba Bavuma will captain the side, bringing strong form to the table. His recent performances against Sri Lanka included three fifties and a century in just four innings. Tristan Stubbs has also made waves in his debut year, racking up two hundreds and a fifty in just seven matches. Pakistan Preview Pakistan head into this Test series with renewed confidence after their historic ODI whitewash of South Africa at home. That said, the challenges of Test cricket are different, and they will need to step up to compete on what promises to be a seaming wicket. The batting unit has its work cut out against South Africa’s formidable pace attack. Saud Shakeel and Salman Agha, who were the top two run-getters in Pakistan’s Test win over England, will be key to holding the innings together. Meanwhile, young Saim Ayub, fresh off two stunning ODI hundreds against South Africa, will look to make his mark in the longer format. Captain Shan Masood and Babar Azam, known for their composure, will play pivotal roles in anchoring the innings. Weather Conditions SuperSport Park, Centurion, typically offers a pace-friendly surface with consistent bounce and carry, favoring fast bowlers, especially early on. The pitch tends to quicken as the game progresses. Overhead conditions often influence swing, adding another layer of challenge for batters. Historically, it rewards disciplined batting and aggressive bowling. The weather forecast shows that Centurion will see cloudy skies on five days of the Test with chances of rain interrupting proceedings regularly. RSA vs PAK Pitch Report The average first innings score at SuperSport Park is 327. The average runs per wicket at the venue is just 29.81. The team batting first will be looking to get a score between 300-350 runs to feel secure. Toss: To Bowl Both teams are likely to look to field first and restrict the opposition for a low score on the first day when the wicket is likely to be at its liveliest.

The wicket has a lot of juice for the fast bowlers and assists them. We have seen low-scoring games in the past. Batters must acclimatize with the pace and build their innings to do well. Spinners get good assistance from the track. Toss: To Bat The side batting first has won six times in the last seven games. The wickets have been used a lot in the tournament and have slowed down.
