𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​​ Zimbabwe vs Ireland​​ ​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : February 22, Saturday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 17:00 PM IST​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Harare Sports Club, Harare, Zimbabwe 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st T20 2025 Ireland have dominated Zimbabwe in 20-over cricket in recent years, emerging victorious in three of their last five meetings.  Zimbabwe vs Ireland 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. ZIM vs IRE Match Prediction & Analysis Zimbabwe and Ireland switch gears from ODIs to T20Is this weekend, kicking off an exciting three-match series at Harare. Fresh off their 2-1 ODI triumph, the home team will look to keep their momentum going in the shorter format. But T20 cricket brings its own unpredictable nature, giving both sides a fresh chance at success. With Sikandar Raza leading the charge for Zimbabwe and Paul Stirling marshaling his Irish troops, we’re in for some explosive cricket as Ireland aims to bounce back from their recent setbacks. TEAMS PREVIEW Zimbabwe Preview Zimbabwe are set for the T20I series with a well-balanced squad that includes both experienced players and up-and-coming talents. Brian Bennett and Dion Myers are expected to lead the charge at the top, bringing stability while also keeping the scoreboard moving. In the middle order, Wessly Madhevere and Sikandar Raza add reliability. Raza, in particular, has been in excellent form, averaging 40 against Ireland in T20Is, making him a key figure in the middle overs. As for the bowling, Richard Ngarava and Blessing Muzarabani will take charge with the new ball. Both pacers are well-versed in these conditions and could make life difficult for Ireland’s top order. Ireland Preview Ireland will be eager to bounce back in the T20Is after falling short in the ODI series. Their form in 20-over matches has been inconsistent—they managed to hold South Africa to a 1-1 draw at home but also suffered unexpected setbacks, including a loss to Canada in last year’s T20 World Cup. To improve their chances, Ireland’s batting lineup needs to deliver. Paul Stirling, Harry Tector, and George Dockrell have the ability to put up big scores. Stirling, in particular, has an excellent record against Zimbabwe with a T20I average of 40.70. Curtis Campher and Lorcan Tucker will be crucial in the middle order, whether that means accelerating the run rate or steadying things if early wickets fall. On the bowling side, Mark Adair and Graham Hume are expected to play major roles in taking wickets, with Adair’s ability to extract movement off the pitch making him a threat. Josh Little and Matthew Humphreys could also make an impact as wicket-taking options for Ireland. Weather Conditions The Harare Sports Club pitch presents a balanced surface. We are likely to see a firm track with consistent bounce. Short boundaries square of the wicket will encourage aggressive batting, though spinners could find some grip in the middle overs. The outfield is quick and well-maintained. The weather will be cloudy with chances of a couple of showers and a thunderstorm in the afternoon and later. ZIM vs IRE Pitch Report The average score batting first at the Harare Sports Club is 157. The highest score posted here is India’s 234-2 against Zimbabwe in 2024.  Toss: To Bowl Due to the forecast of cloudy skies and the possibility of rain in the afternoon, it is likely that both teams will opt to field first in the hope of getting early wickets.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : West Indies Women vs Bangladesh Women𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : January 28, Tuesday​​𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 03:30 PM IST​​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Warner Park Sporting Complex, Basseterre, Saint Kitts and Nevis𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st T20 2025 West Indies’ quest for an early lead against struggling Bangladeshis West Indies Women vs Bangladesh 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. WIW vs BANW Match Prediction & Analysis The ODI series is over, and West Indies Women beat Bangladesh 2-1 in a one-sided contest other than the second game, where Bangladesh put up a strong fight. The action now moves to the T20i series and hosts West Indies Women will look to take an early lead. Bangladesh Women have struggled with its form and will look to perform better in this game.  West Indies Women have an excellent record against the Bangladeshis. They have won all four T20i games between the two sides. Their bowlers have troubled the batters in this series, and hosts will draw inspiration from that. It will be an uphill task for the visitors, and their poor batting form will lower their confidence. It would be interesting if the team could fight hard in this game.  TEAMS PREVIEW West Indies Preview Hayley Matthews and her players will be confident heading into this game. They won the ODI series 2-1 and dominated the Bangladeshis in both of their wins. They have a clean record against Bangladesh Women in this format, and Matthew would like a clinical show from her players as they aim for an early lead in the three-match series.   Hayley Matthews is in good form and will look to take on the Bangladeshi attack at the start, along with Qiana Joseph. Shemaine Campbelle, Deandra Dottin, and Chinelle Henry are powerful strikers and would aim to add quick runs in the middle order. The team has good finishers and expects runs from Nerissa Crafton and Aaliyah Alleyne in the final overs.   Bangladesh Preview Nigar Sultana and her team will be under pressure in this game. They have fared poorly with the bat in all three ODIs, even in the one where they defeated the hosts. The Bangladeshi skipper would expect a strong fightback from her players to win this game and regain their confidence.   Sobhana Mostary has batted well and looks forward to delivering a good start in this game with Murshida Khatun. Fargana Hoque must anchor the innings in the middle order and add runs with Nigar Sultana and Sharmin Akhter. Shorna Akter and Fariha Trisna must do well in the lower middle order.   The bowling attack has struggled in the series, and the team needs early strikes from Marufa Akter and Fariha Trisna, as the hosts have a strong batting lineup. Nahida Akter and Rabeya Khan must check the scoring rate in the middle overs. Sanjida Akter Meghla and Shorna need to do well in the supporting role. Weather Conditions It would be good weather conditions over St Kitts. The surface is flat, but the wicket is slow, and batters must adjust to the pace before playing their strokes. The average first-innings score is 128 runs for the last two years, and the side batting first will be happy to have 150 on the board. WIW vs BANW Pitch Report Warner Park, St Kitts, has a flat surface and a fast outfield, and batters have scored runs on this wicket. Bowlers can exploit a bit of slowness on this track with good lines and lengths. Spinners enjoyed a good record as the ball turned sharply on this wicket. Toss: To Bowl The wicket has been slow in the ODI series, and putting up a big total at this venue is challenging. The team chasing the score can pace its innings. The side winning the toss would look to bowl first.

India vs England, IND vs ENG 2025, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : India vs England​ 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 :  January 22,​​ Wednesday​​ 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 19:00 PM IST​​​​​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Eden Gardens, Kolkata, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st T20 2025 Bazball enters white ball international cricket as England tour India starting with this T20I on Wednesday evening at Eden Gardens. India vs England 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 vs ENG Match Prediction & Analysis Any series in any format between India and England is one which gets cricket fans across the globe excited and talking! This five match T20I series, which will be followed by a three game ODI series ahead of next month’s ICC Champions Trophy, will be sure to have neutrals as well as passionate India and England supporters glued to each fixture. There is more than the usual excitement ahead of this series as there is the big global tournament coming next month. Furthermore, England are under new management in this format with their Test head honcho, Brendan McCullum, who has changed the team’s entire approach to Test cricket, bringing the same approach to white ball cricket. But will England be able to take on the might of India in their own backyard and go toe to toe with them? That is the question ahead of this opener which sees both teams field full teams.  TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview Many international teams would not have been able to deal with the loss of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja at the same time whilst remaining competitive in T20I cricket but India are no ordinary side! Those three generational players called time on their T20I careers after the T20 World Cup last July but India have played so many games without them over the last few years that all the players in their side now have experience as well as all the key skills to thrive at this level. With the bat, captain Suryakumar Yadav, Abhishek Sharma and Rinku Singh are likely to bring the fireworks with the likes of Tilak Varma and Sanju Samson still playing positively but looking to also bat some time. England Preview England are another T20I side who have moved on from a group of players who had served them so well over the previous decade with the likes of Jonny Bairstow, Moeen Ali and Dawid Malan no longer in the thoughts of the selectors. Jos Buttler continues to lead the side and it will be interesting to see how he works with the new coach after he seemed a little put out and not at his best under the last regime. McCullum will no doubt be keen to empower the likes of Ben Duckett, Harry Brook and Jacob Bethell, all of who he has seen flourish in Test cricket. With the ball, England could well unleash the new ball pairing of Jofra Archer and Mark Wood to send down some rockets at the Indian batters. Buttler also has some strong spin options as well with Rehan Ahmed and the experienced Adil Rashid likely to start in this game. Weather Conditions It will be a warm and sunny day in Kolkata ahead of this game with the temperature likely to fall from the high twenties to the mid-low twenties across the match. Clear skies will be in order with humidity reaching 65% by the end of the contest. IND vs ENG Pitch Report Of the bowlers, pacers tend to have to work harder than spinners to pick up wickets at Eden Gardens, although the whole venue is also seen as batter friendly. Whoever bats first will be looking to post a score around 200 on Wednesday evening. Toss: To Bat Three of the last four T20Is at Eden Gardens have been won by the team batting first and with the conditions unlikely to change much across the evening, we predict that both captains will want to bat first ahead of this game.
