𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sydney Thunder Women vs Melbourne Stars Women 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : November 20, Wednesday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 12:40 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Drummoyne Oval, Drummoyne, Australia 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Womens Big Bash League, 2024 Sydney Thunder Women have been one of the most consistent teams this season, losing just two matches from eight. United Arab Emirates vs Bhutan 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. STW vs MLSW Match Prediction & Analysis Sydney Thunder Women will go head-to-head with Melbourne Stars Women in the 33rd match of the 2024 Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) this Wednesday at Sydney’s Drummoyne Oval.

Meanwhile, the Stars, stuck at the bottom end of the table with only 4 points from seven matches and a net run rate of -0.094, are in desperate need of a victory. In their current firm, though, the Thunder will have the edge in this clash. TEAMS PREVIEW Sydney Thunder Preview Sydney Thunder Women will be looking to remain at the top of the table as they enter the business end of the tournament. They have just two matches remaining in the group stage and even one win in one of them should help them stay in the top two. Melbourne Stars Preview Melbourne Stars Women have managed just 4 points from seven games, and with just three matches left in the group stage, they need a spectacular turnaround from here to make it to the playoffs. The batters haven’t been consistent this season for the Stars. Yastika Bhatia tops the batting charts with 154 runs in 6 innings at an average of 25 and a strike rate of 105. Meg Lanning, Annabel Sutherland, and Rhys McKenna have done well in patches, but their inconsistency has hurt the team. Weather Conditions The pitch at Sydney’s Drummoyne Oval is a good one for batting that stays consistent throughout. Like most Australian surfaces, there will be help for fast bowlers with good bounce and carry. The weather in Sydney during the game will be pleasant and breezy. There is no forecast of rain, so we should get a full match. STW vs MLSW Pitch Report The average first innings score at Drummoyne Oval is just 121. The highest total posted at the venue is Perth Scorchers Women’s 171-7 this season against Sydney Thunder Women. Perth won that match by 74 runs.

United Arab Emirates vs Bhutan, ICC Mens T20 WC qual B, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : United Arab Emirates vs Bhutan𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : November 19, Tuesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 11:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : University of Doha for Science and Technology in Doha, Qatar𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : ICC Mens T20 World Cup Qualifer B 2024 Can the underdogs Bhutan do the unthinkable and upset the mighty UAE? United Arab Emirates vs Bhutan 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. UAE vs BHU Match Prediction & Analysis United Arab Emirates go head to head against Bhutan for the first time ever in their T20 cricket history, to kick things off in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier B tournament. Malaysia and Kuwait, through their superior performances in the Qualifier A tournament held in September, reached the regional final. TEAMS PREVIEW United Arab Emirates Preview After missing out on a berth in the 2024 T20 World Cup by the barest of margins, United Arab Emirates will be hoping to do better and go one step further this team. And their primary objective heading into the tournament is to finish at the top of the table. They’re on a bit of a roll, with four victories from five games including their 55-run win over Oman in the final of the ACC Premier Cup in April. Muhammad Waseem who made a valuable 100 that day will be key for UAE’s chances with the bat at the top of the order. Bhutan Preview Bhutan will be buoyed by their decent performance at the Quadrangular tournament at home in which they collected three wins out of five matches, defeating Indonesia twice and Maldives once. Thailand, which thrashed Bhutan in that tournament by a huge 77-run margin, and Saudi Arabia, which brought up a 166 run win in the Thailand quadrangular tournament much earlier, are also a part of this Qualifier. But Bhutan will be worried about dealing with United Arab Emirates first, a much superior team that they’ve never faced before. Weather Conditions This pitch hasn’t seen much cricket, but going by the only match that took place here earlier this year, pacers would love to operate here. Bowlers with an extra yard of pace would enjoy the extra pace and bounce on offer here. That is not to say slow bowlers won’t be useful here at all. The pitch tends to slow down a touch making run scoring slightly difficult as the match progresses. UAE vs BHU Pitch Report This match will be played at the University of Doha for Science and Technology in Doha, Qatar. A fairly new venue, this ground has hosted only one match so far between Hong Kong and Qatar in February this year. Toss: To Bat Not much data is available on this venue, although the chasing team lost in the only T20 international held here. It’s a start of a fresh tournament so both captains would be looking at batting first after winning toss- just to get acclimatized to the conditions and give their batsmen a good hit out.

Sri Lanka vs New Zealand, SL vs NZ 2024, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sri Lanka vs New Zealand𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : November 19, Tuesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 14:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele, Sri Lanka 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 3rd ODI 2024 New Zealand’s challenge to avoid a whitewash Sri Lanka 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 NZ Match Prediction & Analysis We are in the third and final game of the ODI series and hosts Sri Lank have already won convincingly. In the rain-affected 2nd ODI, the Sri Lankans held their nerves to win the game by 3 wickets. They will aim for a clean sweep and ride on the momentum. The young New Zealand team has struggled on this tour, and they would like to avoid a series of whitewashes and end their Asian tour on a high note. Sri Lanka has dominated teams at home in the last few series. They have lost only once in the last seven games, boosting the team’s confidence. In contrast, New Zealand has always struggled in Sri Lanka. The batting lineup lacks experience in these conditions. It remains to be seen if the side can put up a strong show in this game and avoid a series whitewash. TEAMS PREVIEW Sri Lanka Preview Charith Asalanka will be pleased with how his team has gone about this series. They were favorites to win in home conditions and take full advantage of the dusty tracks. The bowling attack has done well for the side, but Asalanka expects a better show from his batsmen as they have struggled against New Zealand’s bowlers. New Zealand Preview Mitchell Santner’s team came to Sri Lanka with high confidence after the historic series win in India. However, it has been a massive wake-up call for the team that fielded several young players in this series. The Kiwis will fight for their pride with the series already in Sri Lanka’s bag. Their batsmen have struggled, and Santner would like to see a better performance from his batters. The top order hasn’t done well, and the side will need a good show from Will Young and Tim Robinson at the top. Mark Chapman batted well in the last game and must build partnerships with Glenn Phillips and Henry Nicholls in the middle order. Mitchell Santner, Mitch Hay, and Michael Bracewell are good finishers, and their role in this game will be crucial. Weather Conditions We would see overcast skies over Pallekele, and rain may cause disruptions. The wicket here has produced lots of runs in the past, as batsmen can play their strokes freely. The average first innings score here is 248 runs. The side batting first would be eying a total of 300 to feel safe. SL vs NZ Pitch Report Pallekele International Cricket Stadium is a big venue. We have seen batsmen score runs as the outfield is fast, and the ball comes to the bat nicely. Fast bowlers do well under cloudy skies and get the ball to move. The wicket here offers lots of assistance to the spinners as the ball grips the surface and turns sharply. Toss: To Bat It is a good wicket to bat on at the start, but it gets slower in the second half. The spinners will be difficult to bat against in the second innings. The side winning the toss would look to take advantage of the conditions by batting first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : West Indies vs England𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : November 18, Monday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 01:30 AM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Daren Sammy Cricket Ground, Gros Islet, Saint Lucia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 5th T20I 2024 England’s aim to grab the series 4-1 West Indies 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. WI vs ENG Match Prediction & Analysis Hosts West Indies finally had something to cheer about after losing the five-match series in the first three games. They did exceptionally well with the bat in the 4th T20i, winning the high-scoring game by 5 wickets. The side will look to end the series on a high by winning the last game. The English side has dominated this series and would look to bounce back and win this game. West Indies hasn’t been consistent in this format in the last few months. They have won only once in the last six games, a testimony to their lack of form. The side will look to get its acts together with the ball to win this game. England has won the last six out of eight games against West Indies, and the side will look to extend this record. It remains to be seen if the West Indies can have the last laugh. TEAMS PREVIEW West Indies Preview Rovman Powell’s team finally had something to cheer about in the last game. The side that has been struggling with its form in this format got its acts right. Powell would like to build on this form and end the series with a 2-3 loss. The West Indies skipper expects a better show from his bowlers as they have struggled against the hard-hitting English batters. England Preview Jos Buttler will be upset with his team’s bowling performance in the last game. They had 218 runs on the board but failed to defend it with poor bowling. After winning the first three games, they already have the series in the bag. Buttler will expect his players to approach this game clinically and end the series 4-1. Philip Salt and Will Jacks delivered a good start in the last game, and the team expects a similar show. Jos Buttler will look to play aggressively in the middle order and add runs with Jacob Bethell and Liam Livingstone. Curran, Jamie Overton, and Dan Mousley are good hitters, and the team expects them to do well. Weather Conditions We expect cloudy skies over St Lucia and rain interruptions during the game. It will be a good surface to bat on, and we have seen batsmen play their strokes easily. However, overcast conditions assist the fast bowlers. The average first-innings score in the last two years has been 170 runs. The team batting first shall look to have 190 runs on the board. WI vs ENG Pitch Report Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia, is a batsmen-friendly ground in ideal conditions. The shorter boundaries allow batters to free their arms. Fast bowlers don’t get much movement unless it is in overcast conditions, and spinners must bowl in the right areas to do well here. Toss: To Bat The team batting first has won the game four times in the last six games. The wicket slows down in the second half when batting conditions become difficult. The team winning the toss would like to use the wicket to their advantage by batting first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sri Lanka vs New Zealand𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : November 17, Sunday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 14:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele, Sri Lanka𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd ODI 2024 Sri Lanka will be aiming to secure their ODI series against New Zealand at the earliest opportunity on Sunday in Pallekele. Sri Lanka 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 NZ Match Prediction & Analysis After rain knocked out over 23 overs of action in Dambulla on Wednesday, both sets of players, officials and supporters will be hoping for a full game of ODI cricket in Pallekele on Sunday. And after a drawn T20I series, it would be great to see 50 overs per side in this second ODI which, if won by the tourists, will setup a decider in the third and final ODI. Sri Lanka showed their experience of local conditions in the first match of the series with two batters making centuries and New Zealand will have to learn fast ahead of this game – easier said than done considering three of their XI on Wednesday were making their ODI debuts! TEAMS PREVIEW Sri Lanka Preview Sri Lanka have built a strong group of batters and that was shown in the first match of the series when even with Pathum Nissanka contributing only 12 runs at the top of the order and Kamindu Mendis not even coming to the wicket at number seven, they were still able to post 324.5 from 49.2 overs. Avishka Fernando made a century alongside keeper-batter Kusal Mendis who top scored with 143 and currently holds the honour of the leading run scorer in international cricket in 2024! New Zealand Preview Considering there were three ODI debutants in the New Zealand team in the opening game of the series in Dambulla, the Black Caps will turn up in Pallekele knowing that they have plenty of players who can perform to a higher level in this match. Opening batters, Will Young and debutant Tim Robinson, impressed with a stand of 88 but there was precious little else from the experienced upper-middle order of Henry Nicholls, Mark Chapman and Glenn Phillips who will all be desperate to contribute more in this game. Weather Conditions According to the forecast, there could be some thunderstorms in and around the venue in the hours before the toss but currently it looks set to be dry throughout this ODI. The temperature is unlikely to drop below 23 degrees by the end of the match and will be as high as 31 degrees for the opening ten overs. SL vs NZ Pitch Report Pallekele is a wonderful venue to play international cricket but is one where the bowlers, particularly the pacers, have to work very hard for their wickets. It is usually a little easier for the spinners but overall it is a batter-friendly venue and we could well see team totals of 350+ in this game. Toss: To Bowl With each of the last four ODIs at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium won by the team batting second, we predict that both captains will go out for the toss wanting to bowl first in this game.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : West Indies vs England𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : November 17, Sunday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 01:30 AM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Daren Sammy Cricket Ground, Gros Islet, Saint Lucia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 4th T20I 2024 England have already won the series and will be looking to make it 4-0. West Indies 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. WI vs ENG Match Prediction & Analysis West Indies and England will lock horns in the fourth T20I at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium this Saturday. England have taken an unassailable lead of 3-0 in the 5-match T20I series, and will be looking to make it 4-0 after the next match. West Indies, meanwhile, have been poor throughout the series and will be looking forward to putting up a better show in the remaining two matches. TEAMS PREVIEW West Indies Preview West Indies have been below par all through this T20I series. In the third match, West Indies were reduced to 37/5 within the powerplay. However, thanks to captain Rovman Powell’s 54 off 41 and Romario Shepherd (30 off 28), they managed to put up a respectable total of 145-8 on the board. However, that wasn’t enough as England reached home with four balls to spare and three wickets remaining. England Preview In their small chase of 146 in the third T20I, England were reduced to 37/3. Then, Sam Curran (41 off 26) and Liam Livingstone (39 off 28) played important knocks that helped their team get over the line. Different batters have stepped up at important times for England this series. Philip Salt scored that hundred in the first game. Jos Buttler smashed an unbeaten 83 off 45 in the second T20I. Liam Livingstone has had two good knocks, and even newbie Jacob Bethell has scored a fifty. Weather Conditions The pitch at Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium tends to offer good support for both batters and bowlers in white-ball games. However, with recent heavy rains in St. Lucia, there’s some moisture on the surface, as seen in the last match here. This added dampness means spinners and pacers can expect a bit more grip, and they’ll probably use slower balls and cutters to disrupt the batters’ timing. The weather will be humid and cloudy. There is very little chance of rain, so we should get a full match. WI vs ENG Pitch Report The average first innings score at Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium is 168. However, the surface will be slower this time, and the team batting first will be looking to set a score of around 160 runs. Toss: To Bowl Jos Buttler’s decision to field first has paid off in every game of this T20I series, with England winning each match. Chances are high that both captains will be looking to bowl first once again in this upcoming game.
