Adelaide Strikers vs Hobart Hurricanes, BBLT20, Today Match Prediction

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :Β Adelaide Strikers vs Hobart Hurricanes 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 27 ,Friday​​ π“πˆπŒπ„ :​ 13:45 PM IST​​​​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Adelaide Oval, North Adelaide, Australia π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ :​​ Big Bash League, 2024-25 Adelaide Strikers have won four of their last five matches against Hobart Hurricanes. Adelaide Strikers vs Hobart Hurricanes 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. ADS vs HBH Match Prediction & Analysis Adelaide Strikers host  Hobart Hurricanes this Friday evening at the Adelaide Oval in the 13th BBL 2024-25 match. The Strikers currently sit fifth with two points from three games. The Hurricanes also have two points, though from just two games. That said, the Strikers have had the better of the Hurricanes in recent encounters, which could give them the edge heading into this showdown. TEAMS PREVIEW Adelaide Strikers Preview Adelaide Strikers have managed just one win from three matches so far in their campaign. They are coming off a 3-wicket loss to Brisbane Heat, where they failed to defend 175 at the Gabba.  Alex Ross and James Bazley have been the team’s top run-getters after the three matches, scoring over 70 runs each.  The Strikers will be expecting a big knock from Matthew Short, the leading run-scorer in BBL 13. Chris Lynn and D’Arcy Short hold greater responsibility in carrying the batting lineup. D’Arcy has already struck a fifty and is looking in great touch. Hobart Hurricanes Preview Hobart Hurricanes began their season on a disappointing note with a loss to the Melbourne Renegades. However, they bounced back in style, clinching an impressive 8-wicket win against the Perth Scorchers. Chasing a target of 156, they reached it with four balls to spare, thanks to opener Mitchell Owen’s outstanding unbeaten knock of 101 off 64 balls. The team will be counting on Ben McDermott to deliver a standout performance. McDermott, who amassed 261 runs last season, has the ability to anchor the innings when needed. Shai Hope has shown stability at the crease and will be tasked with holding things together, while Tim David remains a key player for explosive hitting in the lower order. On the bowling front, Riley Meredith has hit his stride early, claiming 4 wickets at an economy of 8.25. Alongside Nathan Ellis, Meredith will need to shoulder the main bowling responsibilities, given the inexperience of the rest of the attack. Weather Conditions Adelaide Oval is typically a good batting surface for T20s. The ball tends to come onto the bat nicely, allowing for free-flowing strokeplay. Fast bowlers might find some early assistance, but the pitch usually settles down. Spinners could become relevant later in the innings as the surface potentially slows down but it’s generally a venue where batsmen can feel confident. The weather in Adelaide will be cool and pleasant – perfect for a full game of T20 cricket. ADS vs HBH Pitch Report The average score batting first at the Adelaide Oval is 166. The highest total posted at the venue is Sydney Thunder’s 232-5 versus Sydney Sixers in 2021, a game they won by 46 runs. The team batting first in this match will look to set a score of around 170-180 runs. Toss: To Bat Adelaide Oval generally favors teams batting first. In 74 T20s played here, 42 have been won by the team setting the target, a trend that continued in the opening BBL 14 game of the season. Therefore, it’s likely both teams will aim to bat first in this upcoming match.

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :Β Australia vs India 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 26 ,Thursday​​ π“πˆπŒπ„ :​ 05:00 AM IST​​​​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Melbourne Cricket Ground, Richmond, Australia π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ :​​ 4th Test 2024 Sydney Sixers vs Melbourne Stars 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 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, 2024β€”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. Toss: To Bat In 117 Tests played here, the results have favored teams defending the target on 57 occasions while 42 have been won by the teams chasing it. The average first-innings score is 307 with the highest total of 624. The team winning the toss should bat first.

PRS vs BH Match Prediction & Analysis It will be an exciting Big Bash League 2024-25 clash. The Perth Scorchers will be up against the Brisbane Heat in the 12th game at home. The Scorchers have struggled in the last two games and went down against the Melbourne Renegades in their last game. Brisbane Heat will be confident heading into this clash after defeating the Adelaide Strikers in their last game.  The Brisbane Heat haven’t enjoyed a good record against the Perth Scorchers. They have defeated them only twice in the last 10 games and aim to improve this record. The Scorchers have an excellent record at home. They have the fast-bowling attack to take advantage of the conditions at Perth Stadium, and we expect it to be an interesting contest.  TEAMS PREVIEW Perth Scorchers Preview Ashton Turner and his men will be under pressure. After starting the season with a win, they have suffered back-to-back losses. It was a poor show with the bat in the last game against the Melbourne Renegades, which saw them lose by 2 wickets. They have a good record at their home ground, and Turner would like his players to draw inspiration from past wins.  Finn Allen and Keaton Jennings have struggled with consistency, and the team needs them to deliver a confident start. Cooper Connolly is in good form and will look to build partnerships in the middle order with Turner and Josh Inglis. Matthew Spoors, Nick Hobson, and Ashton Agar are good hitters, and they are strengthening their batting.  The bowlers have been in good form. Jason Behrendorff has troubled batsmen in all games, and he will look for early scalps, sharing the new ball with Matthew Kelly. Andrew Tye and Ashton Agar will look to use their experience and keep the scoring under check. Spoors, Turner, and Connolly make it a strong attack for the team. Brisbane Heat Preview Colin Munro is back in the side after sitting out in the first game due to an injury. He will be proud of his team’s efforts during the season. They have won both games and defeated the Adelaide Strikers by 3 wickets in a close contest. Munro will be aware of his team’s poor record against the Scorchers and look to improve it with a win.   Jimmy Peirson has looked in good touch and must deliver a strong start with Colin Munro at the top. Nathan McSweeney and Matt Renshaw set up a match-winning stand in the last game, and they will look to add runs in the middle order with Max Bryant. Paul Walter and Will Prestwidge will look to do well in the lower middle order and take the team to a big total.  The bowling attack is in good form, and the team expects a strong show from Matthew Kuhnemann and Xavier Bartlett with the new ball. Tom Whitney is an exciting new prospect for the team and shall look to do well in the middle overs with Mitchell Swepson. Paul Walter and Will Prestwidge add bowling options for the team. Weather Conditions It would be clear skies over Perth during the game on December 26. The ball would move around with a tinge of grass cover on the surface. Batsmen would have to be watchful against the new ball. The side that bats first in this game would be happy to score 170 runs on this track, with the average first-innings score being 144 runs. PRS vs BH Pitch Report The track at Perth Stadium is good for the fast bowlers, as there is pace and bounce on this surface. Batsmen who get their eyes in also do well on this track. The ball comes on to the bat nicely at this venue. Spinners find it tough on this track as they hardly have any assistance. Toss: To Bowl There would be assistance for the fast bowlers on this track, as the surface will make it tough for the batsmen in the game. Setting up a score here would be a challenge, and the side that wins the toss should have no hesitation in inviting the opposition to bat first.

South Africa 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. RSA vs PAK Match Prediction & Analysis South Africa will face Pakistan in the first Test at Centurion on Boxing Day. Sitting at the top of the ICC World Test Championship standings, the Proteas need just one win from their two home games against Pakistan to secure a spot in next year’s final at Lord’s. Pakistan, who triumphed 2-1 against England in their October home series on spin-friendly tracks, prepared for this Test series by whitewashing their hosts 3-0 in ODIs last week. However, the Proteas are exceptionally strong on home ground, and overcoming them will require a special effort. TEAMS PREVIEW South Africa Preview South Africa may have come up short in the ODI series at home against Pakistan, but their Test squad is a different story. The team recently whitewashed both Sri Lanka and Bangladesh and will be eager to continue their winning streak. Temba Bavuma will captain the side, bringing strong form to the table. His recent performances against Sri Lanka included three fifties and a century in just four innings. Tristan Stubbs has also made waves in his debut year, racking up two hundreds and a fifty in just seven matches. Pakistan Preview Pakistan head into this Test series with renewed confidence after their historic ODI whitewash of South Africa at home. That said, the challenges of Test cricket are different, and they will need to step up to compete on what promises to be a seaming wicket. The batting unit has its work cut out against South Africa’s formidable pace attack. Saud Shakeel and Salman Agha, who were the top two run-getters in Pakistan’s Test win over England, will be key to holding the innings together. Meanwhile, young Saim Ayub, fresh off two stunning ODI hundreds against South Africa, will look to make his mark in the longer format. Captain Shan Masood and Babar Azam, known for their composure, will play pivotal roles in anchoring the innings.  Weather Conditions SuperSport Park, Centurion, typically offers a pace-friendly surface with consistent bounce and carry, favoring fast bowlers, especially early on. The pitch tends to quicken as the game progresses. Overhead conditions often influence swing, adding another layer of challenge for batters. Historically, it rewards disciplined batting and aggressive bowling. The weather forecast shows that Centurion will see cloudy skies on five days of the Test with chances of rain interrupting proceedings regularly. RSA vs PAK Pitch Report The average first innings score at SuperSport Park is 327. The average runs per wicket at the venue is just 29.81. The team batting first will be looking to get a score between 300-350 runs to feel secure. Toss: To Bowl Both teams are likely to look to field first and restrict the opposition for a low score on the first day when the wicket is likely to be at its liveliest.

IND-W vs WIW Match Prediction & Analysis After the 2-1 win in the T20I leg of the West Indies Women’s Tour of India, the Indian women started the ODI leg with a big win in the first ODI. India Women will take on West Indies Women in the 2ns ODI at Kotambi Stadium, Vadodara on 24th December 2024 at 1.30 pm. It’s going to be a day-night game. TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview India Women came back strongly after a rare defeat against West Indies Women in the second T20I, to win the series 2-1 defeating the guests by a big margin of 60 runs in the 3rd T20I. India Women started the ODI leg with yet another big win by a margin of whopping 211 runs in the 1st ODI to lead 3-match series 1-0. India Women batted first after losing the toss against West Indies Women. The opening pair of Smriti Madhana (91 runs) and Pratika Rawal (40 runs) put on 110 in 23 overs, which set up a platform for a big total in the end. The contributions from middle and lower middle order at India reach 314 for 9 in 50 overs. Defending a big total, India started really well, claiming 5 wickets for just 26 runs in first 11 overs. However, West Indies batters had no response to Renuka Singh, who took a five-wicket call for just 29 runs in 10 overs, restricting West Indies for a meagre 103 runs, setting up a big win for India. West Indies Preview West Indies women have done very badly when it comes to ODIs this year. Out of 7 ODIs they played they managed to win just 3 matches. Even Ireland, Bangladesh, Netherlands, and Scotland Women’s teams have a better win ratio than West Indies women. This is the first ODI of the three matches against India, West Indies Women won the toss and elected to bowl first. The opening bowlers could not make a dent as India cruised to 100 without a loss of a wicket. It was Hayley Matthews who provided the first breakthrough in the 24th over. However, West Indies women failed to take regular wickets until 40 overs. Thanks to Zaida James 5 wicket haul for 45 runs, West Indies managed to reduce the damage in the last 10 overs, restricting India for 314. Weather Conditions The weather on the match day at Kotambi Stadium, Vadodara is expected to be clear, and sunny, with no chance of precipitation. The temperature would range from a high of 31Β°C to a low of about 18Β°C. Looks like a perfect day for a cricket match. IND-W vs WIW Pitch Report The venue of the match is Kotambi Stadium, Vadodara.

The first ODI in this series between India and West Indies women. The stadium has a seating capacity of around 35,000 spectators. Toss: To Bowl As the first ODI between India and West Indies women suggested, this looks like a bat first wicket. The teams should look to score as much as possible in the batting friendly conditions and then look to defend the target in helpful conditions for bowling. The team winning the toss should bat first here.

RAND vs DHAM Match Prediction & Analysis We are in the final of the National Cricket League T20, 2024. Rangpur Division will take on the Dhaka Metropolis as both teams look to bag the title. The Rangpur Division defeated the Dhaka Metropolis in the 1st Qualifier, and the team will look to draw inspiration from that victory. Dhaka Metropolis defeated Khulna Division in the 2nd Qualifier to book a berth in the final.  Dhaka Metropolis has enjoyed a good run in the tournament. Apart from their loss in the 1st Qualifier, the team has won all its games. It will make them confident heading into the contest. Rangpur Division’s batsmen haven’t had the best form in the last three games. It is a high-pressure contest, and we expect a strong show from both teams. TEAMS PREVIEW Rangpur Division Preview Akbar Ali’s team did brilliantly in the 1st Qualifier against the Dhaka Metropolis. They dominated the game with the ball against a strong batting lineup. As they meet the same team in the final, the side will look to draw inspiration from that win. Dhaka will come hard at them, and Ali would like a determined show from his players.  Chowdhury Md Rizwan and Abdullah Al Mamun must deliver a strong start, as Dhaka’s bowlers are in good form. Akbar Ali must steer the innings in the middle order and build partnerships with Naeem Islam and Tanbir Hayder. Ariful Haque and Alauddin Babu will look to score runs quickly in the lower middle order.  The bowling attack would like to repeat their performance in the last game. Mukidul Islam and Mohammad Enamul must do well with the new ball to put Dhaka’s batsmen under pressure. Arif Ahmed and Robiul Haque must use the conditions to their advantage in the middle overs. The side will expect a strong show from Alauddin Babu in the supporting role. Dhaka Metropolis Preview Mohammad Naim’s team performed excellently in the 2nd Qualifier with the ball against the Khulna Division. They defended a small total successfully with a strong bowling effort. Naim would like a better show from his batsmen, as they have failed in the last two games. They had lost to Rangpur Division in the 1st Qualifier, and Naim would look to settle scores with a strong show.  Mohammad Naim has made over 300 runs in the tournament and will look to deliver a good start with Md Imranuzzaman. The middle order has struggled in the last two games, and the team expects a good show from Shamsur Rahman, Marshall Ayub, and Shadman Islam. Mosaddek Hossain and Abu Hider must add quick runs in the lower middle order for the team to win.  Weather Conditions The skies over Sylhet would be clear. The wicket would be challenging for batters, and we see low-scoring contests. The average first innings in the last 10 games has been only 137. The side batting first would need 160 runs to feel confident. RAND vs DHAM Pitch Report Sylhet International Cricket Stadium is a good venue for bowlers. The wicket has a lot of juice for the fast bowlers and assists them. We have seen low-scoring games in the past. Batters must acclimatize with the pace and build their innings to do well. Spinners get good assistance from the track. Toss: To Bat The side batting first has won six times in the last seven games. The wickets have been used a lot in the tournament and have slowed down. It is causing problems for the batters. The side winning the toss shouldn’t hesitate to bat first in this game.

Melbourne Renegades vs Perth Scorchers 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. MLR vs PRS Match Prediction & Analysis Melbourne Renegades will be playing Perth Scorchers at the Docklands Stadium in Melbourne. The hosts will be confident after their recent win and will back themselves to put struggling Scorchers under pressure. Perth Scorchers will be livid after failing to finish the innings on a high in their last match. With skipper Ashton Turner and wicket-keeper bat Matthew Hurst on the crease, Scorchers scored just 23 runs in the last 25 balls of their innings and lost 2 wickets. TEAMS PREVIEW Melbourne Renegades Preview Melbourne Renegades bounced back strongly after a loss in their opening match of the season. Tim Seifert was much better with the bat in the second outing, with an improved strike rate at number 3. Another overseas player known for his big-hitting abilities, Laurie Evans, will be expected to find his rhythm in the lower middle order and step up as a finisher for the Renegades. The 21-year-old batting all-rounder Jacob Bethell is a solid number 4. Though he didn’t get going after replacing Mackenzie Harvey in the last match, he is a very promising player and we expect him to find his rhythm soon. Most of all, the opening batsman Jake Fraser-McGurk made headlines in the IPL 2024, scoring 330 in 9 outings at a strike rate of 234 for the Delhi franchise. He is a key batsman to watch out for at the top. There are many all-rounders in the lower order, including the skipper Will Sutherland, who’s been quite impressive with the ball, picking up 5 wickets in two games. Perth Scorchers Preview Perth Scorchers need to address their batting concerns before coming to Melbourne. Plenty of promising batters are on the side, including some reliable match-finishers in the lower middle order. However, Turner and Hurst’s failure to deliver a good finish in the last match while batting first has raised some questions. Nonetheless, it is still early in the Big Bash League, and we can expect a comeback from the skipper. Josh Inglis looked great at number 4 in the last match. He missed out on his fifty by a single run after being run out. In the top order, Finn Allen and Keaton Jennings bring experience to this batting lineup. Jennings has played many games in the English domestic circuit and is a well-rounded player. Number 3 batter Cooper Connolly made a mark for himself with a 64-run knock in the opening game. The Scorchers need consistent partnerships to help carry the momentum through their innings.

New Zealand Women vs Australia 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. NZW vs AUSW Match Prediction & Analysis It was a big disappointment for the locals, the administrators, coaches and players in Wellington with the weather not playing ball and not even a toss or a ball being bowled in the opening WODI. However, every cloud provides an opportunity, and that should certainly be the thinking and approach of Sophie Devine’s side who now need to win only one of the next two games to secure a drawn series against Australia Women. For the hosts, that would complete an excellent couple of months after their triumph in the Women’s T20 World Cup in October and would certainly announce their return to women’s cricket’s top table. TEAMS PREVIEW New Zealand Preview There is certainly plenty more confidence running through this New Zealand Women’s side at the moment and they will be determined to show they can compete with the all-conquering Australia Women in this WODI. We can expect the White Ferns to approach this game in a more traditional way to 50-over cricket. That is to say that they will look to bat conservatively at the top of the order, see off the new balls, before unleashing their power-hitters further down the order when hopefully the Australia Women’s bowlers will be much more tired. Australia Preview Even without their opening batter, keeper and skipper, Ellyse Perry, Australia Women were able to crush India Women 3-0 at home earlier this month and a bit of Wellington weather on Wednesday will have done little to dampen the self-belief in the camp ahead of this game. Australia Women are one of the most dominant international teams of any sport across the last decade and they showed in their victories against India Women that they have plenty to prove after their shock semi-final exit at the Women’s T20 World Cup in October. As ever, they have huge batting depth with former Ireland Women’s international Kim Garth a trusty batter even at number ten! With the ball, we expect Alana King, Garth, Schutt and Annabel Sutherland to be the most dangerous in this WODI. Weather Conditions It looks like being a dry affair across the first half of the game but there is a slight threat of more rain in the mid-late afternoon. Irrespective of how much, we should still be able to complete the fixture. NZW vs AUSW Pitch Report With all of the rain that has been around in Wellington over recent days, this pitch may well offer more assistance for the pace bowlers than usual. As a result, we expect a par score to be no higher than 220. Toss: To Bowl With four of the last six WODIs at the Basin Reserve won by the team chasing in the second innings, we predict that both New Zealand Women and Australia Women will want to bowl first in this game.

Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan, AFG vs ZIM 2024, Today Match Prediction

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :Β Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 21 ,​Saturday π“πˆπŒπ„ :​ 13:00 PM IST​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Harare Sports Club, Harare, Zimbabweπ“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ :​​ 3rd ODI 2024 After a crushing defeat in the second ODI, Zimbabwe will have to raise their game across the park if they are to not lose this series 2-0! Brisbane Heat vs Adelaide Strikers TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. ZIM vs AFG Match Prediction & Analysis Sometimes in sport, one finds a mis-match and that was certainly the case on Thursday as Afghanistan dominated Zimbabwe from ball one en route to a triumph by 232 runs. The winning margin has led to many cricket writers and supporters of Zimbabwe cricket declaring the series already over but the truth is that after the first game was washed out, there is still the possibility of it finishing all square! TEAMS PREVIEW Zimbabwe Preview First things first, if Zimbabwe are to win this game and get back into the series ahead of the third and final match, they simply must find a way to play the Afghanistan bowlers better on Saturday! The tone was set at the top of the order when Ben Curran, brother of Sam and Tom, was run out from the final ball of the opening over for a six-ball duck and the team never recovered. They were eventually bowled out for just 54 and there would still have been 13 balls remaining in their innings if it had been a T20I! Afghanistan Preview There are many facts, stats and interesting points that one can pick out of the second ODI to show Afghanistan’s dominance but the most pertinent one is that they bowled out Zimbabwe for 54 without the great Rashid Khan even bowling one ball! That shows just how well the rest of the bowling attack performed with each of Fazalhaq Farooqi, Azmatullah Omarzai, AM Ghazanfar and Naveed Zadran picking up wickets whilst conceding less than 4.33 runs per over. Of course the batting was also very strong and the Afghans have a natural flair for attacking cricket. The opening pair of Sediqullah Atal (104) and Abdul Malik (84) will both come into this game brimming with confidence after putting on 191 inside 35 overs. Weather Conditions Although there could be some cloudy spells during the day, it promises to be another warm, sunny and dry one in Harare for this game with the temperature up at 29 degrees at its peak. ZIM vs AFG Pitch Report There is something for the bowlers to work with in Harare but the hosts certainly batted under par by being rolled out for 54! Afghanistan’s total of 286/6 was not over par and we think that 300 is an average score on this wicket. Toss: To Bat Afghanistan will be happy to do whatever in this game first but we expect Zimbabwe to show some confidence in their batting if they win the toss. If they do not then the series could be over so we predict that both captains will want to bat first.
