South Africa vs Pakistan, SA vs PAK 2024, Today Match Prediction

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ : South Africa vs Pakistan𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 26 ,Thursdayβ€‹β€‹π“πˆπŒπ„ :​ 13:30 PM IST​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : SuperSport Park Cricket Stadium, Centurion, South Africaπ“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ :​​ 1st Test 2024 Pakistan have never won a Test series in South Africa and have remained winless here in their last six Tests. 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. It is a newly constructed cricket venue located on the outskirts of Vadodara in Kotambi. The stadium is owned by the Baroda Cricket Association. It has held only one international ODI. 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, NZ-W vs AUS-W 2024, Today Match Prediction

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :Β New Zealand Women vs Australia Women𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 21,​Saturdayπ“πˆπŒπ„ :​ 17:30 AM IST​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Basin Reserve, Wellington, New Zealandπ“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ :​​ 2nd ODI 2024 After a WODI Wellington washout on Wednesday, New Zealand Women and Australia Women go again on Saturday morning! 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.

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.

RSA vs PAK Match Prediction & Analysis Host South Africa will be looking to play for pride when they take on Pakistan in the third and final game of the ODI series to be played at The Wanderers in Johannesburg on Sunday. In the 2nd ODI, Host South Africa were completely outclassed by Pakistan in all three departments. Captain Temba Bavuma will be hoping that the side can learn from their mistakes and earn a consolation victory in the series finale. TEAMS PREVIEW South Africa Preview In the batting department, the side will be relying on the likes of Aiden Markram, Rassie van der Dussen, captain Temba Bavuma, rookie opener Tony de Zorzi, wicket-keeper Heinrich Klaasen and explosive hitter David Miller to deliver the bulk of the runs. In the previous match, wicket-keeper Heinrich Klaasen produced a valiant innings for South Africa. He smashed 97 runs off 74 balls with the help of eight fours and four sixes. Besides Klaasen, Tony de Zorzi, David Miller, Rassie van der Dussen and Aiden Markram failed to capitalize on their decent starts. Pakistan Preview In the batting department, the side will be depending on the in-form opener Saim Ayub, captain Mohammad Rizwan, Kamran Ghulam, Salman Agha and Kamran Ghulam to do the bulk of the scoring. In the previous match, Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan and Kamran Ghulam smashed half-centuries to help Pakistan post a mammoth 330 runs in their allotted 50 overs.

India Women vs West Indies 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. IND-W vs WIW Match Prediction & Analysis Fresh off their impressive T20I series win, the Indian Women’s team is gearing up for the ODI segment against West Indies Women. After clinching the T20Is 2-1, India Women head into the ODIs as the team to beat on home soil. Their recent track record against West Indies Women in ODIs looks solid, having won four out of their last five encounters, and they’ll be looking to maintain their winning momentum in the upcoming matches. TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview India Women’s team enters the ODI series with a blend of new talent and seasoned campaigners, led by Harmanpreet Kaur. After a disappointing 0-3 series loss to Australia, the captain will aim to inspire her side to a much-needed victory. All eyes will be on Smriti Mandhana, who has been in exceptional form, cracking three consecutive fifties in the T20I series against West Indies. Moreover, the opener has smashed four centuries this year and averages close to 60 in ODIs. Mandhana’s track record against West Indies is exceptional and makes her a key player to watch. Jemimah Rodrigues has been in solid form and could add valuable runs, while Richa Ghosh and Harleen Deol will aim to stabilize the middle order. Deepti Sharma, with her all-round abilities, will be key to finishing innings on a high note. West Indies Preview West Indies Women’s haven’t been in great form in the 50-over format, losing three out of their last five games. Earlier this year, they were defeated 0-3 by Sri Lanka in similar conditions, suggesting India could pose a comparable challenge. Hayley Matthews will be key for the team. The all-rounder has been delivering outstanding performances with both bat and ball and is expected to take charge in this series. Shemaine Campbelle, who has shown good form in the middle order, will also be crucial. Batters like Qiana Joseph and all-rounder Deandra Dottin add further depth to the lineup. In the bowling department, Chinelle Henry and Afy Fletcher have been consistent wicket-takers, while Karishma Ramharack, Deandra Dottin, and Matthews strengthen the unit further. Together, they’ll need to step up to challenge India in what promises to be a competitive series. Weather Conditions The pitch at Reliance Stadium, Vadodara typically plays true with consistent bounce, making it good for batting. Early moisture might help seamers early on, but it tends to ease out as the day progresses. The outfield is quick, and batters can trust the bounce to play their shots. Spinners could find some grip in the middle overs. The weather in Vadodara will be hazy but cool.  IND-W vs WIW Pitch Report The average first innings total at the Reliance Stadium is 211 runs. The highest total posted here is Australia Women’s 332-7 versus India Women. They won that game by 95 runs. The team batting first in this game will look to set a score of around 240-250 runs. Toss: To Bowl Past records show that no team has a distinct advantage by batting or bowling first at this venue. But given the recent trends in ODIs nowadays, the team winning the toss will look to field first.

HBH vs PRS Match Prediction & Analysis It is the seventh game in the ongoing Big Bash League 2024-25, and the Hobart Hurricanes will take on the Perth Scorchers in their first home game this season. The Hurricanes started the season with a loss, losing to the Melbourne Renegades in their opening game. The Perth Scorchers will look to build on their form after defeating the Melbourne Stars in their first game.  The Perth Scorchers will look to extend their good record against the Hobart Hurricanes. They have won the last four out of five games against the Hurricanes, and the players will look to draw inspiration from those wins. The Hurricanes struggled with the bat in the last game, and the team will need to pull up its socks to defeat the Scorchers and put their campaign back on track.  TEAMS PREVIEW Hobart Hurricanes Preview Nathan Ellis and his men must put the disastrous loss in the last game behind them. They were bowled out for 74 runs against the Melbourne Renegades, losing the game by 6 wickets. Ellis would like to see a better show from his top and middle order in this contest and do well.  Matthew Wade and Mitchell Owen didn’t score much in the last game, and the team needs an electrifying start from the pair. Shai Hope and Ben McDermott are experienced players and will look to add runs in the middle order with Nikhil Chaudhary. Tim David, Chris Jordan, and Nathan Ellis must do a good job in the lower middle order for the team to win.  Perth Scorchers Preview Ashton Turner and his men will be confident heading into their second game. They have started the tournament on a strong note, defeating the Melbourne Stars by 6 wickets. The bowling attack looks excellent, and Turner would like his team to continue with their good record against the Hurricanes with another win.  The team will expect a better start from Finn Allen and Keaton Jennings, as both players went out cheaply against the Stars. Cooper Connolly will be confident after his match-winning knock in the last game and shall look to add runs in the middle order with Matthew Hurst and Turner. Nick Hobson and Ashton Agar add depth to the batting.  Weather Conditions Hobart will have clear skies on December 21. Batsmen would find the conditions challenging early in the game, where the ball does a bit. The ball will come onto the bat nicely, allowing strokeplay. The average first-innings score is 158 runs, and a score of 170 or more would be a fighting total at this venue. HBH vs PRS Pitch Report Bellerive Oval, Hobart, is a small venue, and the short square boundaries offer many scoring opportunities to the batsmen. The wicket offers early assistance to the fast bowlers, who have done well here. There is little on this surface for the spinners, who have gone for runs. Toss: To Bowl The team chasing the score has won seven out of the last eight games. The wicket is good to bat on in the second half, but bowlers have a good time on this track in the first half of the game. Hence, the side that wins the toss in this game will likely opt for bowling first.
