Bangladesh VS Pakistan Live Score , Asia Cup

Asia Cup Score


Probably this is how Asia cup committee wanted super 4 schedule to be. Now we are yet to have a finalist before the start of final match of Super 4. Afghanistan once again Involved in a thriller yesterday. Though they could not win the game, they did not end up losing  this time., they had bitter results when they were involved in close games twice before in the tournament.

Should they include Mohd Aamir?

Pakistan team management has a hurdle a head.  Their ace bowler Aamir has struggled to pick up wickets this tournament. If he is to be rested, Usman Ghani is likely to replace him. Shaheen Shah Afridi’s cards doesn’t record his performance.. Almost five catches of his bowling are dropped , 2 of them are dropped by himself. Though Pakistan batting has been disappointing, They have no choice but to pertain with them. Pakistana are being over cautious , which is not the way play . Batsmen performed only when they are in attacking mode in UAE. Mohd Shehzad scored a memorable century against India yesterday. Although we did not have a winner yesterday, the outcome was not expected. Afghanistan playing on par with Indian team is a good omen.

Bangladesh has myriad issues to solve. Batsmen playing in Tamim Iqbal shoes has utterly failed which is causing more damage than good. Its time for Bangladesh batsmen to look up to Sowmya Sarkar. Nazmul Hussain Shanto performed enough to retain his place.

Can Bangladesh  upset one of the favourite of the tournament Pakistan super force Afghanistan will play their first match against Pakistan . Afghanistan once again cast upset with feeding Bangladesh in yesterday’s match. White.
Where to watch match between Pakistan and Bangladesh?
You can watch the match between Pakistan and Bangladesh in Star Sports HD2 if you are watching from India.
Cricinfo predictions
Pakistan to win the match convincingly.
Sakhib to pick 3 or more wickets
Babar Azam to score century.

India VS Afghanistan Live score, Asia cup, Ball by ball updates

Ball by ball score card


India is the first team to qualify the match against Pakistan yesterday. Afghanistan are already out of the tournament by losing against Bangladesh in their previous game. Show both teams have no purpose to play compare final fixture of Super 4 Asia Cup.

Insights

  • Bhuvaneswar Kumar is four wickets from completing 100 wickets in ODI’s
  • MS Dhoni need 94 runs to complete 10,000 runs in ODI’s
  • Rohit Sharma has become fifth fastest batsmen to complete 7000 runs in ODI’s
  • Dhawan Scored his fifteenth ODI hundred, against Afghanistan.

India like they did in the match against Hong Kong, they want rest jasprit bumrah and other key players Just before the final. India will not take Afghanistan lightly.      India could not also like to change team composition. The team which play against Afghanistan will most likely to play in the final. India’s opponent is likely to be decided on tomorrow from the outcome of final match of super 4.Dubai will host the match between India and Afghanistan. Stands are not expected to be full as it is a weekday.

Can the pathans Shock India?
Afghanistan played beyond spectators expectations. Though they failed to make playoffs, they are the second best team to India. Their two loses in the tournament are the closest games happened in the tournament. Rest of the tournament games are very one-sided. They are very concisions about their strengths and weakness. They are aware that their main strength is is bowling. They are not looking to score very high and getting out cheaply. They are aiming 250 and achieving it consistently. Rashid Khan is definitely the fate changer of Afghanistan cricket, but he is not the only  to be attributed for success of Afghanistan cricket. e is getting enough support from his colleagues, especially from spinners. When your have world class bowling line-up, eventually your batsmen will be sharpened in the nets.

Asia Cup: India Vs Bangladesh Live score, Preview

First of the super 4 is between India and Bangladesh. Even before the completion of last two matches Bangladesh adjudged as second qualifier from group B, which made Bangladeshi skipper Mashrafe Mortaza very unhappy. Now they have to play a crucial with out a day rest no matter how they perform against Afghanistan, which isn’t fair enough.

Bangladesh Vs India Live score


India seemed to have learnt mistakes from the game against Hong Kong.They ticked each and every department in the match against Pakistan.

Can Bangladesh ascend without Tamim?

Bangladesh are heavily dependent on  Mushfiqur and Mahamadullah in batting as Tamin flew back to Bangladesh.  Mushfiqur and Mustafuzur we’re rested in the game against Afghanistan. It would be harsh to dropo youngstar like Abu Haider Rony  after giving decent performance in debut ,against Afghanistan. May be Mortazo should think about replacing Mustafuzur in chalo place of Rubel Hussain.
Pakistan has to bat responsibly .

Cricinfo Predictions

India to win the match.

Rohit Sharma to score a fifty.
Especially while playing against nation like India. They cannot be reckless assuming they are playing at home. Batsmen have to be attributed for the defeat completely for not providing enough runs to the bowlers.
India will play its first match super4 against Bangladesh. Bangladesh is not like the  Minnow as once they are. Now it is capable of defeating any side in the world. It would be interesting to see how India will handle Bangladesh in this situation. Picking final 11 piece the most crucial thing for India.

Due to back spasm Spasm Hardik Pandya is completely ruled out of the tournament. After including Bhubaneswar Kumar in the for the last 2 matches india might think about resting him against Bangladesh. In place of Bhubaneswar Kumar, left arm Pacer khaleel Ahmed might get a chance. Deepak Chahar might occupy hardik Pandya place. Kedar Jadhav bold beautifully with his off breaks against Pakistan. India should be happy with inform Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan.Dinesh Karthik and Ambati Rayudu were amongst the runs against Pakistan which should please Indian spectators. Manish Pandey will definitely amplify batting strength

Asia Cup: India VS Pakistan , Live score,preview

India VS Pakistan ,Asia cup, Preview

Archrivals India and Pakistan will face each other in group A fixture Asia cup. After ICC  fixture last, this is the first time both teams facing each other. India and Pakistan are not participating in any bilateral series. So an ardent cricket fan cannot miss this contest. Both teams already y ascended to super 4 after India winning against Hongkong. India narrowly escaped a defeat against Hongkong yesterday, which could have been biggest upset in cricketing history. Considering recent Performances, Pakistan are firm favourites for this contest. Now both teams are likely to play 3 matches in this tournament.

Can the weakness be burried?

Once again India middle order conundrum been exposed. Top order’s strength will certainly attenuate in the absence of Virat Kohli. Kl Rahul will straight away come in to the side . But the question is in whose place. One of the bowlers should compromise letting an all-rounder, batsmen to get in. Pakistan is always renowned for their bowling. No matter how many come in and go, their bowling will always be top notch. Opening stand between Rohit and Shikhar Dhawan will be crucial.  Dhawan scored a century against Hongkong  yesterday.

Real Challenge in facing Aamir

Since win against India last year, Pakistan is performing consistently  at international level.  Their batting was always a concern, but not anymore.  Youngsters Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam and Inam-ul Haq have solved the top order issue. They have experience play players like Sarfraz Khan and Shoiab Malik to aid them.  Mohd Amir will lead the pace attack. He is potent to challenge any batsmen in world cricket. Hasan Ali had good experience playing against India. Though the match is being played in Neutral Venue, it is home for Pakistan cricket for long time.  Pakistan cricketers know better about the pitch than anybody else.

Cricinfo Predictions

  • Hasan Ali to pick two or more wickets,.
  • Team batting first will win the match

India Vs Hongkong, Live Score, Asia cup

India will play against Hong kong in today’s fixture. It is not a rocket science to conclude India is favorites for today. But this game is helpful in getting Indian team enough practice for the match against arch rivals, Pakistan, tomorrow. India should look to bat first under any circumstances in order to give each and every player chance ahead of Pakistan games. As we predicted on our website yesterday, we witnessed upset of this year. Srilanka lost to Afghanistan and made exit to Asia cup. Afghanistan registered their first win against test playing nation in ODI’s.

India Vs Hongkong preview.

ROhit Sharma will lead the side in this edition of Asia cup. India had a disappointing tst series against England ,which concluded last week. Shikhar Dhawan will open usually with Rohit. KL Rahul will opportunity to bat at number 3 in  the absence of Virat Kohli. Two spinner Chahal and Kuldeep will definitely feature in side. Bowling is very strong with the like of Bhubaneswar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah. there will strong contention for the middle order. Ambati Rayudu , Manish pandey, Jadhav will have fight for middle order. Axar Patel is likely to play middle order role.

India Vs Hong Kong Previous encounters.

India has played against Hong kong only once in 2008, In that match India has won with a margin of 237.Both Dhoni and Raina scored centuries in that match. This match will be held on same turf,where fixyure between Pakistan and Hongkong played. Pitch will give assistance to spinners. If India wishes to give uncapped Khaleel ahmed a chance, they might rest Jasprit Bumrah.

Srilanka Vs Afghanistan review

Afghanistan made it to Super 4 with just one win against Srilanka.  Which indirectly qualifies Bangladesh for the super 4. India and Pakistan would be the more happiest teams. This would also enhance chances of final between India and Pakistan.

Cricinfo Predictions

Rohit Sharma to score a century.

Asia Cup: Afghanistan Vs Srilanka Live Score card

Afghanistan Vs Srilanka Live preview, score card

The match between Afghanistan and Srilanka is the most likely day  to give biggest upset of the year. With Afghans taking huge strides  in limited over cricket. Srilanka are turning in to minnows at international level. Srilanka need to win this match to stay in contention for super 4. While Afghans can straight away qualify for super 4 if they manage to defeat Srilanka at Abu Dabi today as Srilanks lost to Bangladesh in curtain raiser of tournament. Abu Dhabi will host the third game of Asia cup. Srilanka are still favourites  for this game.

Will Srilanka stay alive in competition?

srilanka has an embarrassing defeat against Bangladesh in their first game. Time for them to get inspiration from their bowling. Their batting has continuous failing in the last two years. they only won 9 in 27 ODis played post west Indian tour in 2016.  Their fielding os also below par in first game. The only positive for them to take is Lasith Malinga, who picked up 4 wickets against Bangladesh. The main agenda for Srilanks is to play Rashid khan with repect and not to provide him any wickets.  Srilanka domestic t20 competition prior to Asia cup seems to be hardly helped Srilankan perfromance. Tharanga who is sublime form couldnt manage to take Srilanka home in first game.

Pitch conditions.

Pitch looks like an absolute paradise for batsmen. But mind you, Abu Dhabi pitch can be deceiving at time. No showers are expected today. Which are team wins the toss will likely to opt to bat first.as history suggestd that defending to be fruitful at this venue.

While Srilanka target is to face Rashid khan witch respect, Afghanistan player should vow to play Lasith maling with respect. fortunately for them there is no promising bowler for Srilanka. Afghanisthan should not ain for very high score considering batting strength of opposition

Cricinfo Predictions

Rashid Khan to pick 2 or more wickets.

Asia Cup: Bangladesh VS Srilanka Live score card

Asia Cup is all set to commence today at UAE. Six teams will take part in the competition . This can be most intriguing Asia cup ever held with both Afghanistan and Bangladesh emerged as world class sides. Group A is more predictable of 2 with India, Pakistan and Hong kong. We can expect upset from Group B which has  Srilanka, Afghanistan and Bangladesh.

Bangladesh Vs Srilanka


It’s hard to distinguish between two sides. The distance between the two sides has nullified immensely over  the last few years. Both teams have to be attributed for this. Srilnaka Dominance went downhill post retirement of Sangakarra and Jayawardane. Unfortunately Chandimal is not available due to Injury. Malinga is taking part in a ODI after a long time.

Cricinfo Predictions

Tamim Iqbal to score fifty.

Bangladesh to start with victory.

  • First match is between Bangladesh And Srilanka.
  • India in pursuit of their seventh title.
  • Asia cup has history of 34 years.

India is playing without their skipper Virat Kohli. Rohit Sharma will lead the side in this tournament. Though Virat Kohli is unavailable, India is hot favorites for the tournament. As tournament is being played in UAE, Pakistan is considered as second favorite. Till now India has won the title for six times. Srilanka is the next best performer in Asia cup having won 5 titles. Pakistan has only managed to win twice.

Statistics

  • Mutthiah Muralidharan(30) is the leading wicket taker in Asia Cup.
  • Leading runscorer is also from Srilanka, Sanath Jayasuriya(1220).

Fromat details

Tournament has adopted new format for this edition. Six teams are divided in to two groups. Two from each groups will forward to super 4.In super 4 each team will play for one another. So ending in top 2 in group stage would be crucial. All the previous edition are played in ODI format except the last one held in 2016,which was held in T20 format.
