𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​​ Bangladesh vs India𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : February 20, Thursday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 14:30 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai, United Arab Emirates 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd ODI 2025 India to start their Champions Trophy campaign against the Noisy Neighbours. 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.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : India vs England​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : February 12, Wednesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:30 PM IST​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, India​𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 3rd ODI 2025 India target a 3-0 ODI series clean sweep to backup their 4-1 thrashing of England in the T20Is! 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 India made it another four wicket win to lead this ODI series 2-0 with just this remaining game in Ahmedabad to go. For the hosts, the series has already been an excellent exercise as they ramp up their preparations for the ICC Champions Trophy later this month, whereas for England, this tour has been something of a disaster, losing six of the seven matches across T20Is and ODIs. Ahmedabad is a city where India have an excellent record across all formats and England have also struggled at the venue so it could well be another triumph for the hosts on Wednesday! Both teams do have form players with India’s captain Rohit Sharma along with Shubman Gill and Ravindra Jadeja impressing. For England, only really Ben Duckett and Joe Root can be said to be playing anywhere near their top level. TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview After winning the series opener by four wickets and with 68 balls remaining in Nagpur, India opted to make two changes for the second ODI with Virat Kohli returning alongside spinner Varun Chakravarthy who made his ODI debut. Jashasvi Jaiswal, who himself had debuted in the opener, missed out along with left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav. Those changes show just how much depth India have in this format and it was no surprise to see them beat England again, with the result not looking in doubt throughout the entirety of the chase! Expect the likes of Kohli, Harduk Padya and KL Rahul to be pushed up the order a little in this game to give them as much opportunity as possible to maximise time in the middle ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy. Harshit Rana and Mohammed Shami are both likely to play again as they look to build up their fitness ahead of the tournament. England Preview England’s torrid tour of India will conclude after this game and coach Brendan McCullum will be hoping that he can inspire his charges to the second win of the trip! He should have a strengthened side for this game with pace bowler Jofra Archer coming back after being rested in Cuttack and keeper-batter Jamie Smith now fully fit after a calf issue had sidelined him over the previous ten days. There are some positives for England with all of the top six making scores between 26 and 69 on Sunday, including Ben Duckett and Joe Root making half-centuries. They really need someone to kick on in this ODI though and help their bowlers who have struggled to keep the lid on India’s run-scoring when chasing. Adil Rashid has been consistent, as has Jamie Overton but England will be hoping that the duo of Mark Wood and Jofra Archer can really cause problems with pace in Ahmedabad. Weather Conditions According to the forecast, this game will start with the temperature at 28 degrees, and in spite of being a day-nighter, also finish with the same temperature. In the meantime it will get as high as 32 degrees on a day which will be cloudless. IND vs ENG Pitch Report The Narendra Modi Stadium has been a spinners paradise in some Test matches previously but in ODIs and T20s it tends to be an excellent surface for batting on. As a result, we expect to see a strong batting surface with a par score of 350+. Toss: To Bowl England have lost both games in the series after winning the toss and choosing to bat first. Therefore, we predict that whoever wins the toss ahead of this ODI will elect to bowl first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : India vs England 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : February 09, Sunday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:30 PM IST​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Barabati Stadium, Cuttack, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 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.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : India vs England 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : January 31, Friday​​𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 19:00 PM IST​​​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 4th T20 2025 Can India seal the series in Pune? 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 England have been successful in troubling the hosts with the ball. The visitors picked up 8 wickets in the 2nd T20I while defending 166 runs in Chennai. They finally managed to gain the upper hand as they defended 171 runs in Rajkot beating India by 26 runs. Adil Rashid weaved magic in the middle-over with his right-arm leg break. Suryakumar Yadav and co. have some thinking to do. They were staring at loss in Chennai too. If it wasn’t for Tilak Verma’s unbeaten 72 off 55 balls, England would have achieved parity much sooner. TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview India have a great depth in the batting lineup. And that allows the top-order batsmen to play a fearless brand of cricket. Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson, and Suryakumar Yadav are all known for their attacking approach to the game. Samson’s lack of runs is a big concern for India going ahead. Abhishek Sharma, on the other hand, is struggling to convert his starts into a longer knock. He can make a huge impact on the game even if he stays at the crease for the first 4-5 Overs of the game. Suryakumar Yadav coming in at number 3 may not be a great idea. Tilak Verma fits the bill for number 3. He can adjust his strokeplay and pace the innings according to the situation of the game. England Preview Jos Buttler will be delighted with his team’s comeback in the 3rd T20I. He will back his players to carry the momentum into this game to achieve series parity. Mark Wood, Brydon Carse, and Jofra Archer looked promising with the ball. Despite what their economy rates suggest, they were quite successful in delivering breakthroughs that changed the course of the game. Jamie Overton and Adil Rashid were the stars of the match. Rashid’s 1 for 15 from his 4 Overs helped squeeze the flow of runs during the middle over of India’s run-chase. The right-arm leggie had delivered figures of 1 for 14 in the previous game in Chennai. The best way forward for England will be to back their strengths. They’ve got a strong pace attack. The visitors should be aiming at beating Indian batters with pace while Rashid continues doing his job in the middle overs. In the batting lineup, Ben Duckett seems to have found his form at the top. Weather Conditions It will be partly cloudy in Pune with a high of 32 degrees Celsius. Though a few days are expected to be cloudy this week in the city, there are no signs of rain and we can expect an uninterrupted game of cricket between these two sides. IND vs ENG Pitch Report It is a balanced wicket where both batters and bowlers can find some help. The highest score successfully chased at this venue was 158 runs by India against England back in 2012. In 2023, Sri Lanka recorded the highest total by any team at this venue when they scored 206 runs batting first against India. The average 1st innings score in the 4 T20Is played here is 166 runs. We reckon anything over 180-185 will be a competitive total at this venue. Toss: To Bowl Teams bowling first have won 6 of the last 10 T20 matches played at this venue in Pune. Though the recent matches have been qutie low-scoring, the venue has witnessed high-scoring encounters in the past. Both teams have a deep batting lineup that features some of the big stars in T20 cricket. They will back themselves to chase down a target.

IND vs ENG Match Prediction & Analysis India will take on England in the 3rd T20I of the 5-match T20I series against England at home at Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot on 28th January 2025 at 7 pm IST. England are on a tour to India to play 5T20Is and 3ODIs. This will be the third game of the 5T20Is series, which India currently leads 2-0, after winning the first two T20 Internationals against England. While the first victory was an easy one for India, but they had to fight for the second win. England were so close to winning the second game, but Tilak Verma’s brilliance made sure India goes into the third game without losing a match. Can India seal the series in this third T20I or will England be able to keep it alive? An interesting game is coming up between these two T20I giants. TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview India are on a roll when it comes to T20I cricket. The T20 world champions played 25 matches in the last year, winning 23 of them. No other major cricketing nation comes close to this win-loss ratio of 11. India are currently ranked first in the ICC Men’s T20I team rankings with 268 rating points. India started the series against England with a comprehensive win by 7 wickets, with over 7 overs remaining in the 1st straight to India at Eden Gardens. Varun Chakravarthy’s spin and Abhishek Sharma’s hard hitting batting helped India take the lead in the series. Bowling first, India restricted England to a below-par score of 132 all-out in 20 overs. Barring Jos Butler, India did not allow any batter to settle in. Varun Chakravarthy was the peak of the bowler with 3 wickets for 23 runs in 4 overs. Arshdeep Singh, Hardik Pandya, and Akshar Patel took 2 wickets each. Hardik Pandya was a bit costly though. The chase proved to be extremely one-sided as Abhishek Sharma took the attack to the opposition by scoring 79 runs in just 34 balls with 5 fours and 8 sixes to help India get the win in the series opener. England Preview England rank third in ICC Men’s T20I team rankings. However, their performances in the recent past have not been up to the mark. In the last five games, they have managed to win just one game with one no result. In the current 5-match series against India, they have already lost the first two games and are on the brink of losing the series if they lose this third T20I match at Rajkot. The first T20I was a complete no-show by the England batters, except for Jos Butler. England batted first and scored 132 runs, out of which Jos Butler, the captain, scored 68 runs. As many as seven England batters were out for a single-digit score against the formidable Indian bowling attack. It was a no-show by the bowlers as well, except for Joffre Archer who took 2 wickets for 21 runs in 4 overs, as England lost the game in the 13th over itself. Weather Conditions The weather on the match day at Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot is expected to be hot, with a lot of sunshine and a few clouds. The temperature will range between a high of 33°C and a low of 16°C. These are excellent conditions for a cricket match. IND vs ENG Pitch Report The venue of the match is Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot. Inaugurated in 2013, this serves as the home ground for Saurashtra Cricket Team. It is owned and operated by the Saurashtra Cricket Association and has state-of-the-art facilities. The venue has hosted several tests, ODIs, and T20 International. It has one of the most batting-friendly conditions in India. The venue has a seating capacity of around 28,000 spectators. Toss: To Bat The conditions at Rajkot are one of the most batting-friendly conditions in India. Out of the 5 T20Is played at this venue, 3 have been won by the teams batting first. The team winning the toss should bat first here.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : India vs England 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : January 25, Saturday​​𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 19:00 PM IST​​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, India𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd T20 2025 After a very convincing win on Wednesday, India look to go 2-0 up in the five-match series in Chennai on Saturday evening. 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 The series opener at Eden Gardens was supposed to be a tight affair which would setup the rest of the series to be a close contest but it could not have been any further from what we saw on Wednesday evening with India crushing England with both bat and ball. In fact, India getting over the line with 43 balls remaining created an unwanted record for England in this format! As ever, the BazBall England approach is to shrug off any setback by repeating their commitment to their attacking approach in any format of cricket and that could certainly lead to an exciting second match of the series. Will England be able to inflict a heavy defeat of their own or will India find England just as easy to knock over in Chennai? TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview Too good with the ball followed by too strong with the bat was the story of India’s victory over England at Eden Gardens on Wednesday evening and Suryakumar Yadav will be looking to follow a similar script down in Chennai on Saturday night! Spinner Ravi Bishnoi was the only member of the bowling attack to go wicketless in the opening game but even he returned excellent T20 figures of 0/22 from his four overs. He will be a threat once again in Tamil Nadu but so will his spin colleagues Axar Patel and Varun Chakravarthy. Then there is also Arshdeep Singh, who dismissed Phil Salt with the third ball of the game and returned to get Ben Duckett out in his next over and he remains one of the best new ball bowlers in T20I cricket. England Preview Only captain Jos Buttler (68 runs from 44 balls), Harry Brook (17 runs from 14 balls) and Jofra Archer (12 runs from ten balls) managed to contribute a score in double figures for England on Wednesday and that will be a huge area of concern for the team management. The batters looked pretty clueless when it came to facing Varun Chakravarthy and they will have to devise a plan pretty quickly if they are not going to find themselves spun into trouble once more here in Chennai. Weather Conditions According to the forecast, it will get progressively more humid across Saturday evening but it will be already over 65% at the start of the game. Clear skies with the temperature over 25 degrees throughout. IND vs ENG Pitch Report There is always something for the spin bowlers at the M.A Chidambaram Stadium and we expect this to be no different on Saturday evening. Both teams will look to play positively but in the knowledge that a score of 175 in the first innings is likely to be competitive. Toss: To Bowl This will be only the third T20I to take place in Chennai and the first since India beat West Indies by six wickets in 2018! After seeing how easily India chased down the target at Eden Gardens and with the conditions unlikely to change much across the evening we predict that both captains will want to bowl first.

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.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Australia vs India 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 :  January 03 ,Friday​​𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 05:00 AM IST​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Sydney Cricket Ground, Moore Park, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​​ 5th Test 2024 Australia looking to cement the WTC final spot in the 5th Test at the SCG Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan 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 India are on a tour to Australia to play five test matches. The grueling test series is coming to an end with the fifth test being played at SCG. The current scoreline reads 2-1 in favor of Australia after a superb win at the MCG in boxing test. Australia will take on India in the 5th Test at Sydney Cricket Ground on 3rd January 2024 at 5:00 am IST. After being 1-0 up in the series after the first Test at Perth, India managed to lose two of the next three Tests against Australia. They are currently 1-2 behind in the series. This Test will decide whether India manages to level the series and keep the hopes of the WTC Final alive. Australia, on the other hand, are looking confident and they would like to seal the WTC Final spot in this Test itself. A mega contest coming up in the new year at the SCG. TEAMS PREVIEW Australia Preview You can never write off the Australians, can you? After the big defeat in Perth at the start of the series, Austria looked down and out. Their batting unit has been struggling in 2024 to score any runs, and that cost them the Test in Perth. However, they turned around the series in the next three Tests to be 2-1 up in the series before the series decided 5th Test at the SCG. In the second Test at Adelaide, Australia won the day-night Test by 10 wickets after restricting India to under 200 runs in both innings. Travis had found form with a scintillating 140-run innings and was as adjudged the player of the match. Mitchell Starc took 6 wickets for 40 runs in the first inning in this Test. The third Test at Brisbane could have gone either way, if not for the rain. The match ended in a draw immediately after India started a chase of 275 in the 4th innings. Smith and Head were among the runs with a century each in the first innings at Adelaide. India Preview What a great chance India had to dominate the Australians for the third successive time after winning the first Test at Perth. India came into this series after a 0-3 loss against New Zealand in the home conditions. They needed to win the series against Australia to cement a place in the WTC final. At the moment, with 2-1 down already, all India can do is hope for a win at Sydney and expect Sri Lanka to defeat Australia later at their home. Jasprit Brumrah has been exceptional not just in this series but throughout the year 2024. He has 30 wickets in the first 4 Tests of this series at a ridiculous average of just 12.83. No one in cricket history has more wickets than Jaswit Dumra in a calendar year at a better average. He has become the only player in the Test history to cross 200 wickets under the average of 20. Now that is something absolutely phenomenal. India must be wondering how could they lose 2 Tests when they have someone like Jasprit Brumrah bowling for them. It’s India’s batting that is to be blamed here, especially Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli who have done very poorly in this series and in year 2024. Kohli did get a century in Perth but his other innings have been without success. Rohit Sharma on the other hand is searching for runs and looks very close to his retirement as per some experts and critics. Weather Conditions The weather on the match day at Sydney Cricket Ground is expected to be cloudy with a slight chance of showers and a possibility of thunderstorms. There could be a delay in the start of the game due to these conditions and there could be interruptions later in the day. The temperature of the day would range between 25°C and 19°C. AUS vs IND Pitch Report The venue of the match is Sydney Cricket Ground. It is one of the most historic and iconic sports venues in Australia.

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.

Australia Women vs India Women, AUS-W vs IND-W 2024, Today Match Prediction

Australia Women vs India Women, AUS-W vs IND-W 2024, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Australia Women vs India Women𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 10 ,​Tuesday​​𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 :​ 09:50 AM IST​​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Western Australian Cricket Association, East Perth, Australia 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​​ 3rd ODI 2024 Can India avoid a cleansweep? Australia Women vs India 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 IND-W Match Prediction & Analysis The series has been decided in favor of Australia by 2-0 with the third WODI match slated to be played at the WACA on December 11 in Perth. It’s been a one-sided affair for the two teams ever since the onset of the three-match ODI series. Australia Women have clamped down hard on the Indian Women leaving the tourists with no respite.  With many high-profile players underwhelmingly out of form against a star-studded Australian side, it has been a series to forget for India Women. It has now come down to a matter of national pride as India Women brace themselves to avoid a humiliating whitewash at the hands of a dominating Australian side.  Head-to-head record: When comparing the overall head-to-head record, Australia Women have by far looked the most competent side as opposed to India Women. The home side has an overall near-invincible record of 45-10 in 55 WODI games. At home, Australia have also dominated India Women winning 14 out of 19 WODI fixtures against them.  TEAMS PREVIEW Australia Preview It has been all too easy for Australia Women in this series. Their domination has hardly been challenged by India Women who have looked all at sea against them. Both their wins in this series have come in a thumping fashion. Megan’s five-fer obliterated India in the first WODI for only 100. Despite losing 5 wickets, the run chase turned out to be a cakewalk as Voll’s unbeaten 46 steered Australia Women to a comfortable 5-wicket win inside 20 overs.  Then in the second WODI, records tumbled as Australia Women registered their highest WODI total of 371 against India Women. Batting was at its belligerent best as Voll and Perry smashed twin centuries at a blistering rate to help Australia achieve a monumental total. It was never going to be easy for India Women to chase down such a daunting total and their batting capitulated well inside 45 overs with Sutherland being the pick of the bowlers with figures of 4-39. India Preview India has been blown away left, right, and center and for them, it is merely a matter of survival. Amidst a poor track record in Australia, India Women are tasked with salvaging their pride. Australia have proven to be their nemesis in this format time and again.  The Blues suffered a shocking 3-0 whitewash at home earlier this year and as experts believe, a similar fair awaits them at WACA in Perth. Besides, India Women have not had a huge degree of success in the  WODI format this year and had to contend with a 1-2 series defeat against New Zealand Women at home as well. India’s stalwarts featuring Harmanpreet and Mandhana have been dangerously short of runs and have endured a lean patch for quite some time. While their batting department continues to suffer, their bowling too hasn’t been that penetrative which has further aggravated their woes in this already-lost WODI series. Weather Conditions The temperature on Wednesday will be slightly on the higher side with daytime temperatures expected to touch near 38C. However, the lowest drop is expected to be around 28C. Moreover, the forecast suggests a 15% chance of rainfall between 11 AM to 3 PM but is expected to remain clear throughout the course of the day. In addition, there is expected to be a moderate breeze presence of roughly 18 km/hr.  AUSW vs IND-W Pitch Report The pitch at the WACA is regarded as one of the quickest and bounciest in the world, with the outfield being exceptionally fast as well. It is an ideal hunting ground for the pacers and hit-the-deck bowlers who are looking to extract steep bounce and carry. Moreover, with some weather and breeze around, there could also be some lateral movement on offer with the new ball. But the lightning nature of the wicket and the outfield also presents lucrative run-scoring opportunities for the batting side. Batters cash in and utilize the pace of the ball and score more runs.  Toss: To Bat As of now, only 6 WODI games have been played at this venue and both the batting as well as the bowling teams have had mixed fortunes so far. Three apiece have been won by the batting as well as the bowling side with the average first innings score amounting to a modest 197 runs.  Hence, by looking at the past records, the toss may not play a pivotal role in deciding the outcome of the match and both teams should back themselves to play quality cricket. Either team batting first should aim to set a target 20-30 runs higher than the par score of 197.
