𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Bangladesh vs South Africa𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Oct 21, Monday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 09:30 AM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Sher-E-Bangla National Cricket Stadium, Dhaka, Bangladesh 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st Test 2024 Bangladesh are yet to claim a victory against South Africa in Test cricket, having faced them 12 times without a win. 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 Bangladesh are gearing up to welcome South Africa for an exciting two-match Test series starting this Monday. The opening Test is set to be held in Dhaka, followed by the second match in Chattogram. Both teams view this series as crucial in their quest for a World Test Championship finals spot. Bangladesh sits seventh in the WTC standings, while South Africa currently holds the fifth position. A successful series for either team could significantly enhance their chances of reaching the finals. TEAMS PREVIEW Bangladesh Preview Bangladesh are coming into this Test series after a crushing 0-2 loss to India. While they beat Pakistan comfortably a couple of months back, India proved to be a much tougher challenge. However, now that they are playing at home, they will be a lot more confident in turning things around. South Africa Preview Temba Bavuma has unfortunately been sidelined for the first Test due to an injury. In his absence, Aiden Markram will take the helm as captain for South Africa in this opening match. Markram is a key player in this squad, as he is their best player of spin. The right-handed batter has 501 runs in his last 6 matches at an average of 46 and will be looking to lead from the front in this match. Weather Conditions The pitch at the Shere Bangla National Stadium is likely to heavily favor spin. The ball is expected to stay low and start turning from the first day itself. As the match goes on, the spin will become more pronounced, and batting will become even more difficult. Both teams will be looking to make a big score in their first innings to keep themselves in a comfortable position. Seamers won’t get much help here, apart from when the ball is new. The weather in Dhaka for the match will be mostly cloudy for most of the five days. There are chances of a few showers on the first day of the Test, which might delay the start. BAN vs RSA Pitch Report The average first innings score at the Shere Bangla National Stadium is 328. The team batting first in this Test will strive to reach that mark. The third and fourth innings will be the most difficult period to bat here. Toss: To Bowl The team winning the toss will certainly look to bat first. Getting a big score in the first innings will be crucial here because the wicket will deteriorate by the third day onwards. So both teams will look to bat first here.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : South Africa Women vs New Zealand Women𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Oct 20, Sunday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai, United Arab Emirates𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : ICC Womens T20 World Cup, 2024 South Africa Women’s march to a maiden World Cup title Sri Lanka vs West Indies 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. RSAW vs NZW Match Prediction & Analysis The league games are over, and we have had two exciting semifinals. We are in the big final of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, 2024. South Africa Women will take on New Zealand Women in this big game as the world awaits to crown a new champion. After defeating defending champions Australia Women in the 1st Semifinal, South Africa will be confident. New Zealand Women knocked out West Indies Women in the 2nd Semifinal. TEAMS PREVIEW South Africa Preview Laura Wolvaardt’s team did the impossible in the Semifinal. Few would have expected them to defeat the mighty Australians, but they did it in style. It was a one-sided contest as the South Africans dominated with the ball and the bat en route to an 8-wicket win. The players will be confident after this victory, and Wolvaardt would like to take her team to a maiden World Cup win after finishing runner-up in the last edition. New Zealand Preview Sophie Devine’s side overcame all the odds in the 2nd Semifinal against West Indies Women. In a nail-biting contest, the Kiwis won by 8 runs. The bowlers performed exceedingly well to defend a small total. They face a massive challenge in the final, and Sophie Devine will expect a good show from the batters as they haven’t looked as good as the bowling attack. Weather Conditions The weather conditions will be perfect in this game, with clear skies. We will see a flat surface where batters can play their strokes freely. The average first innings score in this tournament has been around 140 runs, and the team batting first will be happy to have 160 runs on the board. RSAW vs NZW Pitch Report Dubai International Cricket Stadium has an excellent batting surface and a fast outfield. Batters can play the strokes freely on this ground, but there is little for the fast bowlers on this track. Spinners have enjoyed a good run here as the ball grips and turns on this surface. Toss: To Bowl The team chasing the score in the last five games has won four times. Chasing scores is easy as the wicket stays true throughout the game. Both teams would like to play it safe in this high-stakes battle and prefer to bowl first in this game.

Sri Lanka vs West Indies, SL vs WI 2024, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sri Lanka vs West Indies𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Oct 20, Sunday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 14:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele, Sri Lanka𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st ODI 2024 Will West Indies manufacture a way to overcome a formidable Sri Lankan side in their fortress? Sri Lanka vs West Indies 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. SL vs WI Match Prediction & Analysis Having come back from behind to claim the T20I series, hosts Sri Lanka gear up for their next challenge — taking on a circumspect West Indies side in one of their strongest formats at home. West Indies, however, need to quickly regroup following their series loss. Preparing themselves for the gruelling ODIs ahead is going to take a big mental shift. Having bossed the opening T20, West Indies would be kicking themselves at not being able to carry their momentum from the first T20I into the second and third match. With a dominant win like that, they might have had their sights on rounding off a stellar year with yet another trophy to add to their cabinet. TEAMS PREVIEW Sri Lanka Preview A come-from-behind series victory is always special and Sri Lankan players will feel positive heading into the ODI leg of the tour with a massive confidence boost. Making the transition from T20 to ODI shouldn’t be a problem for the hosts, because the core of the team is still going to be intact. There’s the impressive Pathum Nissanka up top, offering solidity. And partnering him will be Avishka Fernando with Kusal Mendis slotting in at #3 to keep the runs flowing early on in the game. West Indies Preview Having failed the Lankan spin challenge in the last two T20s, West Indies batters are now faced with the difficult prospect of taking on an equally dangerous spin attack on testing pitches in a longer format— and it doesn’t bode well at all for them. Besides, ODI is not a format that West Indies really fancy their chances in. They wouldn’t usually back themselves to win in the ODIs against most sides in the world, like they would in the T20s. Worse yet, with just 3 wins in 17 ODI matches in this part of the world, West Indies have always found Sri Lanka a tough place to visit. Weather Conditions This track has been predominantly good for batting, with the average score in the past 4 years ranging between 260 to 310. Batsmen, if they set up a platform seeing off the early spell from swing bowlers, can keep the scoreboard ticking over nicely. The wicket generally remains true to its character for most part of the match, however, at instances, has slowed down bringing spinners into play. Weather-wise, it’s looking good and the forecast for the game doesn’t stoke any concerns. SL vs WI Pitch Report A change in format and a change in venue too. Pallekele International Cricket Stadium will be hosting all the three ODIs of this series. The hosts have a successful track record of taking on their opposition here, with 9 wins from 12 matches in the past four years. Toss: To Bat Although the outcome of the toss doesn’t influence the result here, teams chasing have done well in day night fixtures, winning 9 out of 14 games, in which a game was abandoned and didn’t produce a result. Although Sri Lanka, of late, has had a tendency to bat first and put runs on the board, it would be interesting to see what they decide to do in this case.

This match is important in terms of securing the top 2 spots, and the teams get the added advantage of getting an extra game after the loss to make the finals. TEAMS PREVIEW North West Preview North West have been the best team in the CSA T20 Challenge 2024 so far. They started the season with four consecutive wins, followed by a defeat against the Warriors and an abandoned game against the Titans. While they have already secured a spot in the top two, a win here will confirm their spot as the table-toppers going into the playoffs. Lions Preview The Lions have had an equally good season as the North West. With a game left in the league stage, they are currently at second spot with 4 wins and 2 losses. Unlike North West, the Lions started the season with a loss against the Titans, but they went on to get 4 consecutive wins against the Warriors, Dolphins, Knights, and Bolands. Weather Conditions The weather on the match day at Senwes Park in Potchefstroom will be mostly sunny, with temperatures reaching a high of 32°C. The day is expected to be warm and pleasant, with only a 12% chance of precipitation. Overall, it should be a great day for cricket.

Dolphins vs Rocks, CSAT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Dolphins vs Rocks𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Oct 19, Saturday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 21:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium Cricket Ground, Durban, South Africa𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : CSA T20 Challenge, 2024 Can Boland Secure a Play-Off Place in the Final Regular Match? Dolphins vs Rocks 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. DOL vs BOL Match Prediction & Analysis Boland are heading into the fixture against the Knights looking to finish in the top four places by the end of the regular season. The team are two points behind fourth-placed Warriors, whose final match of the regular campaign is against the Titans. Meanwhile, the Dolphins are bottom of the standings with eight points from the six matches so far. Furthermore, the team are extremely far away from getting into the top four owing to the poor run rate. TEAMS PREVIEW Dolphins Preview Dolphins have been stuck at the bottom of the table but the second victory of the season – against the Knights – came emphatically for the team. It has helped the team recover from a very poor run rate. Even now, they are at a disadvantage, but the six-wicket victory has opened up a sizeable advantage. Dolphins have now registered back-to-back victories following the recent success over the Knights. Rocks Preview Boland were able to finally pick up the second win of the season after a close victory over the Warriors in the recent match. After choosing to bat first against the Warriors, Boland were able to set a strong target thanks to players like Clyde Fortuin, who hit a half-century, and Aviwe Mgijima. The contribution from the latter was particularly crucial in bolstering the middle order. A victory for Boland in the upcoming game puts them as a great competitor for the Warriors in the fourth place and Western Province in the fifth place. Weather Conditions The pitch will be in favour of batsmen like it has done in the previous two matches of the 2024-25 season. The average score from these two games in the first innings stands at an impressive 189. The batting strength of the two teams remains in good shape to expect a similar outcome. The weather in Durban is expected to be rainy with scattered showers. DOL vs BOL Pitch Report The Kingsmead in Durban gets ready to host only its third game of the league campaign. So far, the venue has provided one victory and one defeat for the Dolphins. However, it has been a destination to witness high scores. Toss: To Bowl There have been two previous matches on this ground in the 2024-25 season. Dolphins have elected to field in both these matches. They have come out successful in just one of those games. In the last three matches for Boland, they have decided to field first in two of the games.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : West Indies Women vs New Zealand Women 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Oct 18, Friday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd Semi Final 2024 New Zealand Women enjoy a 17-5 head-to-head record against West Indies Women in T20Is. West Indies 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. WIW vs NZW Match Prediction & Analysis West Indies Women will take on New Zealand Women in the second semi-final of the Women’s T20 World Cup, 2024 this Saturday. The high-octane clash will take place at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. New Zealand have had the upper hand over West Indies in T20Is in recent times. However, West Indies will be flying high after their emphatic victory over England in their last league game and hence can’t be taken lightly. TEAMS PREVIEW West Indies Preview West Indies Women have stormed into the semis after a stunning performance against England Women in their final group match. 23-year-old left-hander Qiana Joseph smashed an impressive 52 runs off 38 balls, forging a 100-run alliance with her captain, Hayley Matthews, who scored 50 off 38. This partnership powered the 2016 champions to successfully chase down the 141-run target with 12 balls and six wickets remaining. New Zealand Preview New Zealand Women have had a terrific campaign in this World Cup after suffering a horrific year in the format. They lost only game in the group stage – against Australia – and have looked pretty solid otherwise. Weather Conditions The surface at Sharjah Cricket Stadium is known for its slow and tacky nature. Once the new ball loses its luster, batters will find it difficult to time the ball. Success will require both patience and clever tactics to accumulate runs. Expect both teams to rely heavily on their spin bowlers, so batters mustn’t get stuck in their innings. Making the most of the powerplay overs is essential, as it sets the stage for capitalizing on scoring opportunities as the match progresses. The weather in Sharjah will be hot, humid, and clear. There is no chance of rain, so we will get a full match. WIW vs NZW Pitch Report The average first innings score at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium over the last 10 matches is just 119. The highest total posted at the venue in this World Cup is Australia’s 151-8 versus India. They won that match by 9 runs. The team batting first in this game will be looking to set a score of around 150-160 runs to be ahead of the opposition. Toss: To Bowl Three of the last four matches played at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in this World Cup have been won by the chasing side. Both teams are hence likely to look to field first.

Can West Indies still find a way to make runs against quality spin? 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. SL vs WI Match Prediction & Analysis Sri Lanka and West Indies are all set to square off against each other in the series decider to see who walks away with the trophy. The third T20 of the series gets underway in Dambulla’s Rangiri stadium on the 17th of October, with the series hanging in the balance at 1-1. West Indies stunned Sri Lanka with a powerful batting display in helpful batting conditions to take a 1-0 lead in the series. TEAMS PREVIEW Sri Lanka Preview Sri Lankan players, their spinners in particular, showed strong character and bounced back in style with an emphatic win in the second T20 to keep the series alive, following a disappointing loss in the first. West Indies Preview The dichotomy of the West Indies batting attack never ceases to amaze. In the first T20, their openers put on an exhibition of brute-force batting to make short work of a 170 chase on a good batting strip where they knew Sri Lanka’s spinners would not be effective. But their batsmen didn’t bother fighting and surrendered meekly to the same spinners on a typical Sri Lankan wicket that spun more than expected. They were skittled out for 89, exposing that they’re still vulnerable to quality spin in trying conditions. With the series on the line, the third T20 is going to feature another spinning wicket so it’s hard to tell which West Indies line-up would turn up on the day. Weather Conditions The wicket took spin from ball one, making it difficult for run scoring. New batsmen can find it incredibly hard to walk in and start scoring straightaway, as spinners and pace-off bowlers can be tricky to negotiate in the middle overs. If a used surface with low and slow bounce gets served up, spinners will feel right at home. The weather forecast for the game is clear and we’re in for an exciting finish to this T20 series. SL vs WI Pitch Report The match is all set to happen at Rangiri Dambulla International Cricket Stadium. Toss: To Bowl Setting a total has a definite advantage in this venue, where teams batting first have won four out of five games. Sri Lanka batted first in both matches, but they applied themselves to a difficult pitch to get up to a more than par score. They wouldn’t mind batting first again on this strip because they know they’ve more than a few spinners to try and put the West Indies batters under the pump in the second innings. West Indies wouldn’t want to read too much into their dismal effort with the bat in the second T20. It’s a fresh day and they’d be looking to chase with better intent and planning.
