πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :​​​​ New Zealand vs Pakistan𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 02, Wednesday π“πˆπŒπ„ : 03:30 AM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Seddon Park, Hamilton, New Zealandβ€‹π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ : 2nd ODI 2025 Return of Rizwan and Babar Still Sees New Zealand on Top! New Zealand 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. NZ vs PAK Match Prediction & Analysis After a very one-sided T20I series, there was plenty of hope from not just fans of Pakistan cricket but also cricket watchers across the globe that the ODIs would be a more competitive affair. This seemed a likely proposition as Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan were joining up with the Pakistan squad but they were unable to turn the results around and the pair will need to go up another level in this game to bring the series level. Without Shaheen Shah Afridi, Pakistan’s bowlers impressed in the opening game in Napier but ultimately the ten overs from Salman Aghan and Irfan Khan cost 118 runs and the tourists must find a way of filling that fifth bowler gap with a more competitive option. TEAMS PREVIEW New Zealand Preview New Zealand have been a strong side at home across all formats for many years and they got themselves out of a potentially sticky situation in the last game when they found themselves 50/3 but then kicked on to post 344/9. Mark Chapman, Daryl Mitchell and Muhammad Abbas were key to turning the innings around and they could well do the same from four, five and six in the order if the top three of Will Young, Nick Kelly and Henry Nicholls fall early once more. Champan comes into this game after hitting 132 on Saturday, his highest ever ODI score and he will be looking forward to taking on the Pakistan bowlers once again after making 94 in the third T20I. Pakistan Preview Pakistan may have been beaten once again on this tour of New Zealand in the opening ODI on Saturday, but there were at least positives to take from the top five in their batting order who did give the team some hope. Equally, it shows just how much pressure there is on the top five as Pakistan were 249/3 during the 39th over in pursuit of 345 before one of the great collapses occurred and they were bowled out for 271! Babar Azam was the first wicket to fall during this flurry of wickets and he will be key after he top scored with 78 runs from 83 balls. Along with Abdullah Shafique, Rizwan and Salman Agha, those four hold the key with the bat. With the ball, Haris Rauf was the most impressive with 2/38 but it is Irfan Khan who will be the leading wicket taker for Pakistan in the series ahead of this ODI. Weather Conditions The forecast suggests that there will be some cloudy spells but also some sunshine poking through across the day. The temperature will be in the mid-low twenties throughout although there could be a rise in humidity levels across the final 5-10 overs. NZ vs PAK Pitch Report Seddon Park is a great venue for ODI cricket and the last game in this format back in January saw scores of 255/9 take on 142 all out. We expect something similar in terms of the bowlers being in the contest and a par score of no more than 300. Toss: To Bat Three of the last four ODIs here at Seddon Park, Hamilton have been won by the team batting first. Therefore, our prediction is that both teams will want to bat first ahead of the game.

NZW vs SLW Match Prediction & Analysis It is the second game in the three-match ODI series. Hosts New Zealand Women will look to take an unassailable lead against Sri Lanka Women. The first game between the two teams had to be stopped midway due to rain. New Zealand was in a winning position, and the side will take confidence from the last game. The Sri Lankans will look to overcome their weaknesses from the last game.    Sri Lanka Women have struggled away from home. The side has won only three times in the last 20 games when they have toured. Their record against New Zealand is poor, and it doesn’t inspire confidence in the team. New Zealand Women have a good record at home and know the conditions well. It will be interesting to see if the Sri Lankans can turn it around. TEAMS PREVIEW New Zealand Preview Suzie Bates, and her team would feel upset with having had to share points with the Sri Lankans in the last game. The side was in a strong position when the skies opened and stopped play. The bowling attack did well in the last game, and they will have confidence. The team will look to use the home advantage and take an unassailable lead in the next game.   Polly Inglis is known for her aggressive strike play and looks forward to delivering a good start with Suzie Bates. The team will expect a good show from Brooke Halliday, Maddy Green, and Georgia Plimmer in the middle order. The team will expect quick runs in the lower middle order from Emma McLeod and Bree Illing.   The bowling attack will be confident after their good show in the last game. Hannah Rowe and Bree Illing will look to repeat their good spells from the last game. Jess Kerr troubled the batters, and she must do well in the middle overs with Eden Carson. Suzie Bates, Emma McLeod, and Plimmer add variety to this attack. Sri Lanka Preview It was a lucky escape for Chamari Athapaththu’s team in the last game. They struggled with the scoring rate in the last game, but rain came to their rescue. They saw what the Kiwis would do in the upcoming game. Athapaththu would like to see a more determined show from her players.   Chamari Athapaththu missed out in the last game and must lead from the front and deliver a good start with Vishmi Gunaratne. Harshitha Samarawickrama batted well in the last game, but she must improve her strike rate and build partnerships with Kavisha Dilhari and Manudi Nanayakkara in the middle order. Nilakshi de Silva and Anushka Sanjeewani are good hitters, making this batting lineup strong.   Sugandika Kumari and Achini Kulasuriya must strike early in the game to put the team in a strong position. Inoshi Priyadharshani and Chethana Vimukthi will look to bowl tight spells in the middle overs as the Kiwis will come hard at them. Kavisha Dilhari and Athapaththu complete a strong attack for the side. Weather Conditions There is a forecast for clear skies in Nelson. The wicket is good to bat on as the ball comes nicely onto the bat. Fast bowlers also have their chances on this wicket. The side batting first in this game shall eye 150 runs, with the average first-winning score being 123 runs. NZW vs SLW Pitch Report Saxton Oval, Nelson, has been known to be a good ground for the batters. With comparatively shorter boundaries compared to other venues in the country, batters have liked playing here. The ball also tends to do a bit in the initial overs, which will encourage the fast bowlers. Toss: To Bat It is a small ground and a good surface to bat on if the batters can see through their initial overs. Chasing scores is tough as the wicket gets slower in the second innings. The side winning the toss shall like to bat first in this game.

Pakistan 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. BAN vs IND Match Prediction & Analysis The wait is finally over for the Indian fans. Their team led by Rohit Sharma is set to kick off their ICC Champions Trophy 2025 campaign against Bangladesh at Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai on 20th February from 2:30 pm onwards. India had their hands on the trophy back in 2013 under the captaincy of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. They lost to their arch-rivals Pakistan in the last edition which was held in 2017. India is set to miss Jaspreet Bumrah due to a back injury. Harshit Rana has been called into the squad as his replacement. India whitewashed England in the three-match ODI series at home recently. Rohit Sharma’s century in the second ODI followed by Virat Kohli’s half-century in the last ODI were the key takeaways for India from the series. Ravindra Jadeja picked six wickets in the series at an average of just 10.  TEAMS PREVIEW Bangladesh Preview With the exits of Tamim Iqbal and Shakib al Hasan, the Bangladesh team is now centered on Najmal Hossain Shanto, Mehidy Hasan Miraj, and Taskin Ahmed. Tanzid Hasan will open the innings with Soumya Sarkar. The duo has a combined average of 33 in last year’s games. Sarkar scored a half-century (73) in the last ODI against West Indies. Najmul Hossain Shanto will come at number three. Shanto has 337 runs at an average of 84 in the last six ODIs with a century and two half-centuries. He will be the batter to watch out for. All eyes will be on the Bangladeshi middle-order who have scored most of the runs in the last year. Mehidy Hasan Miraj will lead the middle order with Towhid Hridoy, Mushfiqur Rahim, and Mahmadullah. Miraz scored 305 runs in the 8 innings of the last year with three half-centuries. He averages 47 against India. Rahim played just 4 games in 2024, scoring 136 runs at an average of 68. He is the most prolific player when it comes to India with 750 runs in 25 innings. Mahmadullah scored 337 runs in 9 games of the last year with four half-centuries. He was their leading run-scorer. India Preview India will be high on confidence after winning the series against England at home. Rohit Sharma will open the innings with Shubhman Gill. Sharma scored a century in the second ODI of the series. Since 2023, Sharma has 1206 runs at an average above 50 with two centuries and 9 half-centuries. His average at Dubai is over 100. On the other hand, Gill has 1333 runs at an average of 51 in the last 29 games. He will be the batter to watch out for. Virat Kohli came back in the form with a half-century against England. Since 2023, Kohli has 1154 runs in 23 innings at an average above 60 with four centuries and 9 half centuries. Shreyas Iyer will come in the middle with KL Rahul, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, and Washington Sundar. Iyer has 973 runs in the last two years at an average of 51 with three centuries and 6 half-centuries. KL Rahul will be a threat for Bangladeshi bowlers in the middle. Rahul has 1033 runs in the last 26 ODIs at an average of 53. India has bolstered their army with all-rounders in the middle. Hardik Pandya has 287 runs in 12 innings with the bat and 23 wickets with the ball. Jadeja has been better than Pandya in this format since 2023 with 300-plus runs with the bat and 37 wickets with the ball. Weather Conditions The weather at  Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai is expected to be cloudy on match day, with temperatures ranging between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius. Winds will blow from the southeast at 8-19 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. BAN vs IND Pitch Report The game will be played at Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai on 20th February from 2:30 pm onwards. The stadium has a capacity of 25000 spectators. The stadium has hosted 13 Tests, 58 ODIs and 110 T20. Toss: To Bowl In 58 ODIs played here, the results have favored teams chasing the target on 34 occasions while 21 have been won by the teams chasing it.

ZIM vs IRE Match Prediction & Analysis Zimbabwe made a brilliant start to the ODIs after their setback to their loss in tests. They will look to continue their momentum with another victory in this match and win this series. Ireland have been beaten comprehensively in the first ODI but will look to make a comeback in the next match. They will take confidence from their victory in their recent encounters.  TEAMS PREVIEW Zimbabwe Preview Zimbabwe made a competitive total of 299/5 in their 50 overs. Brian Bennett was their star performer with 169 runs in 163 balls. Their top order batters Craig Ervine (66 runs) and Ben Curran (28 runs) made good starts and continued the momentum to make a big score. Their middle order kept losing wickets as no player crossed 20-run mark outside top-3.  Their bowlers bundled out the opposition for just 250 runs. Blessing Muzurbani (4/51) and Richard Ngarva (3/56) took 7 wickets between them and should stop the opposition line up from scoring runs effectively. Wesley Madhevere and Sikandar Raza chipped in with a wicket each in the match.  Ireland Preview Ireland batters were bundled out for just 250 runs in the match. Curtis Campher top scored with 44 runs while Stirling, Harry Tector, L Tucker, and G Dockrell got starts but failed to carry on the momentum and kept losing wickets at regular intervals.  Their bowlers gave 299 runs in their 50 overs. Mark Adair, Andy McBrine and Hume took a wicket each in the match. Joshua little was very expensive last game while Mathew Humphrey bowled a decent spell.  Weather Conditions Harare is expected to have slightly overcast conditions on the match day with some rain possibility. But we expect only small intermittent delays in the match.  ZIM vs IRE Pitch Report Toss: To Bowl Both teams will look to chase down the total here as the pitch will remain the same throughout the match.

New Zealand 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. NZ vs RSA Match Prediction & Analysis This looks set to be an exciting second game in the Pakistan Tri-Nation Series with South Africa playing their opening game of the competition and taking on the winners of match one – New Zealand. The opening game of the series showed that there are plenty of runs to be had on this pitch in Lahore and it was Kane Williamson (58), Daryl Mitchell (81), Glenn Phillips (106*) and Fakhar Zaman (84) who were the leading players with the bat. TEAMS PREVIEW New Zealand Preview Although this tri-nation series has been scheduled to help all three teams arrive at the ICC Champions Trophy at their peak later in the month, we do not expect New Zealand to make any changes to the side who beat Pakistan by 78 runs on Saturday. It was Glenn Phillips who stood out, hitting an unbeaten century and showing just how powerful a player he is, and we predict that he will play in a similarly aggressive manner in this clash. South Africa Preview With the SA20 only just coming to a conclusion, and due to injuries to Anrich Nortje and Gerald Coetzee, South Africa will not be able to put out their strongest XI for this game. They look the most weak in their pace bowling attack but there will also be an opportunity there for the likes of Junior Dala or Gideon Peters to make a claim for a place in their XI when the likes of Kagiso Rabada are back in the mix. With the bat, Matthew Breetzke is a fine white ball top order player and he is likely to adopt an aggressive approach from the first ball onwards. Expect keeper-batter Heinrich Klaasen to be used in a floating position with the team management likely to want to see him arriving at the crease from around the 30th over onwards. Weather Conditions With this match being played from 09:30 through to 17:30, the temperatures will be slightly different from Saturday’s game. That means that it could be as low as 15 degrees at the toss but will be at least ten degrees hotter about two hours later! NZ vs RSA Pitch Report The Gaddafi Stadium is a good wicket for batting on. Batters like the pace of the ball and can trust the bounce of the pitch so we expect a par score to be in the region of 320-340. Toss: To Bowl New Zealand showed the value in posting a score then successfully defending it on Saturday and so, here at the same venue, we predict that both captains will go out for the toss looking to bat first.

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :Β India vs England 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : February 09, Sunday π“πˆπŒπ„ : 13:30 PM IST​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Barabati Stadium, Cuttack, India π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ : 2nd ODI 2025 England’s miserable tour of India continues as the hosts continue to sharpen their skills ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy. 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 This is turning into a very disappointing tour of India for England and was certainly not what Test head coach Brendan McCullum had in mind when he added the white ball side to his brief at the start of this year! Since arriving in India, England have won one and lost five games across five T20Is and one ODI and apart from getting on top towards the end of the powerplay in the first innings, seemed to be forever playing catch-up in the first game of this series on Thursday. India on the other hand were able to canter home with 68 balls remaining in spite of being without star batter Virat Kohli who was not risked due to a slight injury to his right knee. TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview It was a fine team performance from India in Nagpur to get this three match series underway with only Hardik Pandya going wicketless from the six-man bowling unit. He made up for that by being in the middle for the winning runs and although there will be disappointment from captain Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul who were both dismissed for only two runs, India look like a team who will take some stopping in this year’s ICC Champions Trophy. Shubman Gill top scored with 87 runs from 96 balls and was well supported by Shreyas Iyer (59 runs from 36 balls) and Axar Patel (52 runs from 47 balls) in a slightly re-shuffled batting order which saw Ravindra Jadeja come in at number eight, such is the batting depth in the side. England Preview Ahead of the start of the series, it was announced that Jofra Archer would play in only two of the three games but that could now change as England will certainly want him available for this match and if the series is still alive after the fixture then they may well risk him for the decider! The right-arm pacer dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal and returned good figures of 1/39 from seven overs but it was his fellow opening bowler Saqib Mahmood and Adil Rashid who were the leading wicket takers with two dismissals each. Brydon Carse may find his place under threat if he doesn’t perform in this game though as he was far and away the most expensive with his five overs costing 52 runs. Weather Conditions According to the forecast, the temperature will be at 27 degrees at the start of this ODI before jumping up to 30 degrees in the mid-afternoon. When the floodlights kick in, the temperature will still be in the mid twenties! IND vs ENG Pitch Report This has always been a good batting wicket in Cuttack and we predict that both teams should be able to post strong totals. A par score batting first in this game will be in the region of 320. Toss: To Bowl Four of the last six ODIs in Cuttack have been won by the team chasing and England have also had most of their recent success in this format when bowling first. Therefore, we predict that both sides will choose to chase if they win the toss.

WIW vs BANW Match Prediction & Analysis It is the second game of the three-match ODI series. West Indies Women would look to go for the kill as they take on Bangladesh Women. West Indies put up a dominating performance in the first game, winning it by 9 wickets, and the hosts will look to build on the momentum. Bangladeshis must fight hard in this game as they failed to challenge the hosts in the previous match.  West Indies Women haven’t lost an ODI against Bangladesh Women. They play at home, and the players know the conditions well. The batting lineup is strong, and the side will look to leverage that advantage. Bangladeshis will be low on confidence after their disastrous show in the last game. It will be interesting to see if they can win this game and keep their hopes alive.  TEAMS PREVIEW West Indies Preview Hayley Matthews will be confident heading into this game. The West Indies skipper led from the front with a brilliant hundred to power her team to a big win in the last game. Matthews would like to build on this momentum and bag the series in this game. Her opponents are low on confidence, and the team expects a strong show from her players.  Hayley Matthews will be confident after her hundred in the last game and will look to build a partnership at the top with Qiana Joseph. Shemaine Campbelle, Deandra Dottin, and Jannillea Glasgow are aggressive players and shall look to score runs quickly. The team also expects a good show in the lower middle order from Aaliyah Alleyne and Mandy Mangru.  The bowlers trouble the Bangladeshi batters in the last game. The team expects early strikes in this game from Cherry Ann Fraser and Deandra Dottin. Aaliyah Alleyne and Jannillea Glasgow bowled good lines in the last game and shall look to repeat the same magic. Karishma Ramharack, Matthews, and Afy Fletcher complete a strong attack for the team. Bangladesh Preview Nigar Sultana and her team have a mountain to climb in this game. In the last game, they suffered a hammering loss, where the side was sloppy with the bat and the ball. They have struggled in this format against the top teams, and Sultana expects a strong comeback from her players in this game.  Murshida Khatun batted well in the last game, and the team expects her to deliver a good start with Fargana Hoque. Sharmin Akhter is the key player for the team, and she must anchor the innings in the middle order and add runs with Nigar Sultana and Sobhana Mostary. The lower middle order looked in poor shape, and the team will need runs from Shorna Akter and Rabeya Khan.  Weather Conditions It would be perfect weather conditions over St Kitts. The surface is flat, and batters can easily play their strokes. Fast bowlers haven’t found much support from the track so far. The average first innings score is 197 runs, and the side batting first will be happy to have 250 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. There isn’t much on this surface for the fast bowlers, and they must vary their pace to do well in this venue. The spinners enjoyed a good record as the ball turned sharply on this wicket. Toss: To Bowl The wicket is tough to bat first as the fresh wicket has something for the bowlers at the start. The wicket gets better as the game progresses. The side winning the toss would look to bowl first.

Australia Women vs England 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. AUSW vs ENGW Match Prediction & Analysis Although Australia won the opening game of the multi-format series with 67 balls remaining, it was far from a smooth journey over the finish line from the hosts who kept on losing wickets to give England a bit of hope before eventually sealing the win! The hosts also had the advantage of winning the toss in the series opener and that will give England plenty of hope that just calling correctly or generating a little bit extra with bat or ball could be the difference between 4-0 or 2-2 (points). TEAMS PREVIEW Australia Preview Across their dominance of women’s cricket covering the last two decades, it has been in WODIs that they have been their strongest and Australia Women will travel to Melbourne confident of adding another two points to their tally in the multi-format series. With the ball, it was Ashleigh Gardner who stood out on Sunday, taking 3/19 but there were also fine performances from Kim Garth (2/46), Annabel Sutherland (2/42) and Alana King (2/35). Darcie Brown also chipped in with a wicket but don’t be surprised if the experienced Megan Schutt strikes with the new ball this time around after taking 0/38 from seven overs in Sydney. England Preview There was plenty of bullish talk from the England Women squad ahead of the opening game of this multi-format series and although they were beaten there were plenty of positives, particularly with the ball, to take away from Sydney. Unsurprisingly, left-arm spinner Sophie Ecclestone returned the best figures of the side and she is likely to be their most accurate and dangerous bowler once again in Melbourne. The question is, can the likes of Lauren Bell, Lauren Filer and Nat Sciver-Brunt back her up and tie the Australia Women batters down. With the bat, captain Heather Knight hit her 4000th WODI run in England’s total of 204 all out but she will be looking at herself in the mirror, along with the likes of Danni Wyatt-Hodge and keeper-batter Amy Jones who all reached 30 but could not kick on in Sydney. Weather Conditions According to the forecast, the players may not even see a cloud in the sky in Melbourne on Tuesday. The temperature is expected to reach 28 degrees and will be above 22 from midday onwards. AUSW vs ENGW Pitch Report The Junction Oval always offers a little more for the spinners than many other Australian venues and we expect this to be the case on Tuesday. That said, whoever bats first will be looking to post a score of 260+ to be competitive. Toss: To Bowl The conditions are unlikely to change much across Tuesday’s game in Melbourne and it will be warm and sunny throughout. The pitch will remain true from start to finish so we predict that both sides will want to bowl first.

IND-W vs IREW Match Prediction & Analysis We are in the second game of the three-match series, and India Women would be eying a series win after winning the first game by 6 wickets. It was a clinical performance by the hosts where they troubled Ireland Women with the ball and followed it up with a good batting performance. It will be a big test against all odds for Ireland Women, and they must do their best to win this contest.  Ireland Women have never won against India Women in ODIs, and they must overcome a mental obstacle to win and keep the series alive. Their recent form in the ODIs doesn’t inspire much confidence. The Indians have done well at home and have their top order in good form. It will be interesting to see if Ireland Women can register their maiden win against India in this format.  TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview Smriti Mandhana, who has recently taken over the captaincy, will be proud of how her side played in the last game. It was a perfect show with the bat and the ball, and they used the conditions to their advantage. Mandhana would like the players to build on this form and win the series in the second game.  Pratika Rawal batted brilliantly in the last game and will look to deliver a good start with skipper Smriti Mandhana. Harleen Deol will look to anchor the innings in the middle order and add runs with Jemimah Rodrigues and Tejal Hasabnis. Richa Ghosh and Deepti Sharma add strength to the batting lineup in the lower middle order.  Ireland Preview Gaby Lewis and her team will be under pressure in this game. It was a sub-par batting performance from the team in the last game, where the top and middle order failed to deliver the goods. The side will look to make a strong comeback and level the series as the Indians will come hard at them.  Gaby Lewis led from the front in the last game and was unlucky to have missed out on a hundred. She looks forward to delivering a good start with Sarah Forbes. The middle order had a poor outing in the last game, and the team needs partnerships between Una Raymond-Hoey, Orla Prendergast, and Laura Delany. Leah Paul and Coulter Reilly must add runs in the lower middle order.  Weather Conditions Rajkot will see a warm morning. We expect a flat wicket where batsmen can play their strokes easily. Spinners will enjoy bowling on this track, and the side batting first will aim to have 270 runs on the board. IND-W vs IREW Pitch Report Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot, is a large ground. The wicket is flat, allowing the batters to free their arms with even bounce and pace on the track. There is assistance for the fast bowlers early in the game. Spinners do well when at this venue as the surface assists them. Toss: To Bat The wicket will become tricky to bat on as the game progresses. Most teams have won games at this venue, chasing scores. The side winning the toss would look to bowl first in this game.
