IND vs SL Dream11 Prediction & Fan2Play Possible 11 Pitch Report: Asia Cup 2022 Match 9 | IND vs SL Dream11 Prediction Today | Dubai Pitch Report

India and Sri Lanka play each other so often that it’s almost a tradition to see these two sides line up against one another. But, none of the contests in recent years beared the kind of importance that this clash does, with a spot in the Asia Cup 2022 Final on the horizon.

India’s close defeat to Pakistan two nights ago has increased the pressure levels significantly on Rohit Sharma’s team. Should they lose, they will need to beat Afghanistan and hope Pakistan lose their final two matches against Afghanistan and Sri Lanka respectively. It’s a big ask.

So, will we see a positive Indian approach or one that is struck down by worry? If the Pakistan game is evidence, we should expect more positivity in the powerplay. However, any mini collapse in the middle overs is crucial to avoid, so the spotlight on Rishabh Pant and the in-form Hardik Pandya will be shining brighter on them. Similar applies to Arshdeep Singh and Bhuvneshwar Kumar after moments in the death overs they’d rather forget.

Sri Lanka’s excellent run chase against Afghanistan – their second big chase in as many matches in this Asia Cup – has the Lions very close to an appearance in Sunday’s Final. This is some effort after an embarrassing defeat in their first match of the tournament, so confidence should be sky high as they attempt to put India on the brink of elimination. Expect Sri Lanka to go hard, especially in the middle overs with Bhanuka Rajapaksa and co. coming into this match in fine touch.

IND vs SL Possible Playing XI

India could look at another bowling option in R Ashwin to counter Sri Lanka’s left-handers in the middle order.

India: 1. Rohit Sharma (c), 2. KL Rahul, 3. Virat Kohli, 4. Rishabh Pant (wk), 5. Suryakumar Yadav, 6. Hardik Pandya, 7. Deepak Hooda, 8. Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 9. Ravi Bishnoi, 10. Yuzvendra Chahal/R Ashwin, 11. Arshdeep Singh

Sri Lanka will likely stick to the same team that beat Afghanistan.

Sri Lanka: 1. Pathum Nissanka, 2. Kusal Mendis (wk), 3. Charith Asalanka, 4. Danushka Gunathilaka, 5. Dasun Shanaka (c), 6. Bhanuka Rajapaksa, 7. Wanindu Hasaranga, 8. Chamika Karunaratne, 9. Maheesh Theekshana, 10. Asitha Fernando, 11. Dilshan Madushanka

IND vs SL T20I Head-to-Head Stats & Key Players

India:

  • KL Rahul’s 20-ball 28 against Pakistan doesn’t look amazing on paper, but his approach was refreshing with some incredible shots. He has an excellent record against Sri Lanka: 7 inns, 295 runs, avg. 42.15, SR 141.15.
  • Virat Kohli is having a good Asia Cup so far (154 runs), with two half-centuries in three matches. Also, he has a superb record against Sri Lanka: 6 inns, 339 runs, avg 84.75, SR 140.66.
  • Suryakumar Yadav smashed 50 at a strike rate of 147.06 in his only T20I vs Sri Lanka, played last year. In T20Is this year, he has scored 527 runs at an average of 40.53 and incredible strike rate of 188.21.
  • Suryakumar is brilliant when chasing. In nine innings batting second in T20Is, he has scored 339 runs at an average of 56.50 and strike rate of 170.35. In 15 innings batting first, he has struck 432 runs at an average of 30.85 and strike rate of 181.51.
  • Hardik Pandya had a day to forget vs Pakistan (0 and 1/44). Interestingly, he has a poor batting record vs Sri Lanka (6 inns, 55 runs, avg. 9.17), but he has the ability to turn this around.
  • Sri Lanka have lost five wickets in the powerplay in this Asia Cup. So, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who has taken 13 wickets at an economy rate of 5.63 in the powerplay this year, will be key.
  • India may be tempted to play R Ashwin to counter Sri Lanka’s left-handers, as well as the fact that the off-spinner has taken 13 wickets in just six T20Is vs Sri Lanka at an average of 8.62 and economy of 4.91.

Sri Lanka:

  • Kusal Mendis has struck scores of 60 and 36 in his last two matches. He enjoys opening in T20Is, with 545 runs in 17 matches at an average of 34.06 and strike rate of 142.30.
  • Bhanuka Rajapaksa is the gamechanger in the middle. He has scored 71 runs in this Asia Cup at a strike rate of 151.06, including a crucial 14-ball 31 against Afghanistan.
  • Dasun Shanaka had a terrific series against India earlier this year. The captain scored 124 runs in three matches at a strike rate of 196.82.
  • Wanindu Hasaranga has taken 10 wickets in five T20Is vs India, although a few of those matches were played against a COVID-ravaged India last year. In this tournament, the legspinner has taken three wickets in as many matches at an economy of 7.54.
  • Left-armer Dilshan Madushanka will be key upfront. Rohit Sharma has been dismissed 44 times by left-arm seam in 789 balls in all T20s (average of 17.93 balls per dismissal).

Other Stats and Facts

  • Head-to-head: Matches 25, India 17, Sri Lanka 7, N/R 1.
  • Hardik Pandya has taken nine wickets in eight T20Is against SL at an average of 17.33 and economy of 6.69.
  • Rohit Sharma will be glad Dushmantha Chameera is unavailable (six dismissals). The India captain will be looking to improve on a sub-par record vs Sri Lanka: 16 inns, 339 runs, avg. 21.19, SR 138.93.
  • Yuzvendra Chahal has taken the most wickets in IND-SL T20Is (17) at an average of 16.41 and economy of 8.21. But, he has taken just one wicket in three matches in this Asia Cup.
  • Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis, Danushka Gunathilaka and Bhanuka Rajapaksa all struck 30+ scores against Afghanistan.
  • Kusal Mendis has a strike rate of 163.33 in this Asia Cup, the best of any Sri Lanka player.

Dubai Pitch Report and Weather

There have been five scores above 180 in the last three matches at Dubai. Chasing teams are still reigning supreme, with all matches not involving Hong Kong won by the team batting second. You feel that 185+ might be crucial for the team batting first to stand a better chance.

Temperatures will be hot once again. So, dew may not play a factor.

Cricket News: What does Kane Williamson think about the future of cricket? | Williamson discusses Boult and de Grandhomme decisions

New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson opened up on cricket’s changing landscape as key Kiwi stars continue to turn down their national contracts. 36-year-old all-rounder Colin de Grandhomme walked away from international commitments to participate in T20 franchise leagues across the world, soon after Trent Boult was released from his NZC central contract.

Both Boult and de Grandhomme have secured contracts in the Big Bash League (BBL), whose dates clash with several of New Zealand’s scheduled matches. In fact, other Kiwi players are expected to follow suit as well given that 17 out of the 19 nationally contracted cricketers are aged above 30 years.

So much seems to have happened so quickly in cricket – Kane Williamson

“It’s a tricky one because it is changing. So much seems to have happened so quickly. It does seem to be a movement in the landscape of the game. Every case is unique and every case has got their individual needs at different stages of their lives,” Williamson reflected on the issue, as he geared up to lead the side in a three-match ODI series vs Australia.

He added, “There are a lot of different franchise events happening and seeing players make decisions on their playing careers…suggests that there is a balance to strike and some things to work through.”

The 32-year-old Williamson has dealt with his fair share of injury issues in recent times. The tennis-elbow complication shifted him to the sidelines for an arguably prolonged period. The elbow issue has placated now but he missed a couple of ODIs against West Indies due to a quad injury last month. Williamson termed that move as a precautionary measure.

He reiterated that he is enjoying his time with the Kiwis upon being asked whether he would consider taking up the franchise cricket route in the future.

“At the moment I’m very much here and looking to do my very best for the team. I love being involved in this environment,” the skipper said, as reported by ESPNcricinfo. “It’s nice to have those 10 days at home and the body is feeling good. It’s nice to be training fully and batting for long periods in the nets,” Williamson further quipped.

Cricket News: List of Virat Kohli’s best knocks against Pakistan in T20Is | Best innings by Virat Kohli against Pakistan in T20Is

India suffered a crushing loss against Pakistan in their Super 4 encounter on Sunday. However, the Rohit Sharma-led side can draw some solace from Virat Kohli’s 60-run knock that powered the team to 181 runs in the first innings.

Kohli came into the Asia Cup on the back of an indifferent run of form. He had taken a month-long break from cricket and missed the team’s tours to the Caribbean and Zimbabwe. The slight time off seems to have served the former skipper well as he appears to be getting into his true element with every passing game, and will be looking to continue the recent resurgence in upcoming matches.

Virat Kohli’s best knocks in T20Is vs Pakistan

Kohli has historically performed well against Pakistan in T20Is and Sunday was no exception to the same. Here is a look at some of Virat’s best innings against India’s rivals.

82* in 2022 T20 World Cup

This is not only Virat Kohli’s best innings against Pakistan, but one of his best knocks ever. India were in all sorts of trouble in their 2022 T20 World Cup opener against arch-rivals Pakistan, before Kohli held the fort and then exploded in the final overs. This performance was particularly sweet for Virat, given his struggles in the previous two years or so.

His shot off Haris Rauf with 28 needed off eight balls is etched in history. Check out the reactions here.

78* in 2012 T20 World Cup

In what was a young Kohli’s first encounter with Pakistan in the T20 World Cup, Kohli steered an incredible innings to lead India to a successful chase of 129 runs. Though the total was very modest, Kohli notched 78 runs in 61 deliveries.

The entire chase revolved around Kohli’s efforts as the contributions by the rest of the batsmen were mainly miniscule. There was an early scare as Gautam Gambhir departed for a duck in the inaugural over itself. It was a complete Kohli show from thereon and India managed to secure the victory in the 17th over.

55* in 2016 T20 World Cup

The Pakistani bowlers manage to make a game out of even slightly under-par totals mainly due to the proficiency of their new-ball bowlers. In the 2016 T20 World Cup, Mohammed Amir’s opening spell dismantled the Indian top-order. The conditions appeared conducive to the seam bowlers and India suddenly found themselves to be in a spot of bother.

However, much like his natural gameplay, Kohli held one end to perfection. India was only set a target of 118 runs and the total ensured that the batsman didn’t have to up the ante as the game progressed. The 34-year-old capped off the match with a trademark salute to Sachin Tendulkar who proudly congratulated the Indian batsman from the stands.

49 in 2016 Asia Cup

Continuing with the trend of Pakistan optimizing their bowling resources, the neighborhood rivals ensured that MS Dhoni’s men got a tough contest even whilst chasing 84 runs in the 2016 Asia Cup. Ajinkya Rahane and Rohit Sharma were sent back for a duck whereas Suresh Raina could add only a solitary run to the team’s tally. Kohli weathered Amir and Mohammed Sami’s storm to perfection as he bided his time to make a cautious 49 on an extremely testing surface. He did the bulk of the work in a crucial 68-run partnership with Yuvraj Singh that helped India seal its fate in this contest.

60 in 2022 Asia Cup

Never before has Kohli encountered a poor run of form as stark as the one he was battling prior to the ongoing Asia Cup. There were calls to displace him from the T20I squad but he has reiterated his importance in the setup with three consecutive knocks of terrific value and significance.

His 60-run innings on Sunday might not have been the most of fluent of his efforts so far but it certainly helped India recover very well from a jolt in the middle-overs. He anchored the innings to perfection and brought up his half-century with a sublime six over mid-wicket that raised hopes of him slowly getting back to his natural groove.

India might have lost the game but they will take a lot of heart from the performance that Kohli put up against the arch-rivals. After all, his form is of utmost importance for India’s chances to lay their hands in the T20 World Cup next month.

AUS vs NZ 1st ODI Dream11 Prediction & Fan2Play Possible 11 Pitch Report | AUS vs NZ 1st ODI Dream11 Prediction Today | Cairns Pitch Report

When it comes to wake up calls, there is none bigger than the one Australia received on Saturday after a shock defeat against Zimbabwe. The batting was so diabolical it reeked of complacency, and despite the bowlers’ best efforts, 141 is not a score often defended in ODi cricket.

That’s the bad news. The good news is that the home side has the chance to rectify that horror show just a few days later, this time against New Zealand in the first international at Cairns since 2004. Much of the focus is on the struggling Aaron Finch, who was dismissed thrice in as many matches by left-armer Richard Ngarava. Trent Boult would certainly be looking back at those wickets with great enthusiasm.

With no bilateral ODI series scheduled between these teams in the 2023-27 Future Tours Programme, this is New Zealand’s biggest and possibly final chance for a while to win a Chappell-Hadlee Trophy in Australia. They have not won an ODI in Australia since 2009, embarking on a seven-match losing streak including a 71-run defeat just before the world shut down in March 2020. As seen against Zimbabwe, as well as in series losses to Pakistan (2-1) and Sri Lanka (3-2) earlier this year, Australia’s ODI form is up and down.

AUS vs NZ 1st ODI Possible Playing XI

Australia will likely guard against panic after the disappointing loss to Zimbabwe. There will be a decision to make around whether they will play Ashton Agar or another pacer.

Australia: 1. David Warner, 2. Aaron Finch (c), 3. Steve Smith, 4. Alex Carey (wk), 5. Marcus Stoinis, 6. Cameron Green, 7. Glenn Maxwell, 8. Ashton Agar/Sean Abbott, 9. Mitchell Starc, 10. Adam Zampa, 11. Josh Hazlewood

New Zealand will go in with a similar team to the one that beat West Indies 2-1 last month. One question they may have is whether they play an extra spin option.

New Zealand: 1. Martin Guptill, 2. Finn Allen, 3. Kane Williamson (c), 4. Devon Conway, 5. Tom Latham (wk), 6. Daryl Mitchell, 7. James Neesham/Michael Bracewell, 8. Mitchell Santner, 9. Tim Southee, 10. Lockie Ferguson, 11. Trent Boult

AUS vs NZ Head-to-Head Stats in ODIs & Key Players

Australia:

  • If Aaron Finch is to bounce back, he’s going to have to do it against a team he has a poor record against. He has scored just 172 runs in ten ODIs against New Zealand at an average of 17.20.
  • David Warner fares better against the Black Caps. The left-hander has scored 614 runs in 13 ODIs at an average of 47.23 and strike rate of 99.03.
  • Warner has scored 135 runs off 146 balls (avg. 67.50) against Trent Boult in ODIs. He also has good numbers against Southee in this format: 86 balls, 90 runs, one dismissal.
  • Steve Smith looked in good touch in the Zimbabwe ODIs, with two unbeaten 40+ scores. In 11 innings against New Zealand, Smith has scored 364 runs at an average of 40.44 and strike rate of 87.29. This includes a score of 164.
  • Mitchell Starc became the quickest to reach 200 wickets in ODIs. He has produced some memorable performances against the Black Caps, and has an impressive 23 wickets in 10 matches against them at an average of 17.52.
  • Adam Zampa was named player of the series against Zimbabwe for his six wickets. Watch out for his battle against Kane Williamson, particularly with the use of the wrong-un. He dismissed Williamson with this delivery in the 2020 ODI between the teams.
  • Josh Hazlewood has taken 24 wickets in 10 ODIs against New Zealand at an average of 20.75.

New Zealand:

  • Martin Guptill has the most runs in AUS-NZ ODIs out of any current player (825) with an average of 34.37. The opener has good numbers against Hazlewood (130 balls, 118 runs, one dismissal) and Starc (110 balls, 81 runs, one dismissal).
  • Kane Williamson has also been dismissed just once by Starc (69 balls, 53 runs), but he has found the going tougher against Hazlewood: 79 balls faced, 42 runs scored, two dismissals.
  • Overall, Williamson has scored 475 runs in 14 ODIs against Australia at an average of 39.58.
  • Finn Allen has made a 25+ score in five of his seven knocks in ODIs. This includes 96 in the recent tour of West Indies on a tricky surface.
  • Finch was all at sea against Richard Ngarava in the Zimbabwe series. So, expect Trent Boult to have a say. In fact, Boult has dismissed Finch four times in 62 balls in ODIs, conceding just 36 runs in the process.
  • Also, Boult has a magnificent record against Australia: 12 ODIs, 29 wickets, avg. 19.24, SR 22.6, 2 5-wicket hauls.
  • Mitchell Santner was named player of the series in West Indies last month for his four wickets at an average of 21.00 and economy of just 3.42. Against Australia, Santner has taken an impressive 15 wickets in nine innings at an average of 21.86 and economy of 4.59. The left-arm spinner may enjoy some help on the Cairns track.

Other Stats and Facts

  • Head-to-head: Matches 138, Australia 92, New Zealand 39, 7 N/R.
  • David Warner scored an incredible 66.67% of Australia’s runs in the third ODI against Zimbabwe. This is the second-highest contribution ever by a single player in a completed men’s ODI innings.
  • Cameron Green took eight wickets in three ODIs against Zimbabwe last week at an average of 7.12 and economy of 3.16.
  • Tim Southee has a horror record against Australia in ODIs, with just 15 wickets in 19 matches at an average of 62.40. In Australia, he has taken five wickets in eight games at 85.20.
  • Lockie Ferguson will also be aiming to improve against Australia: 6 inns, 7 wickets, avg. 48.28, econ. 6.14.
  • Glenn Maxwell has struggled big time against New Zealand in ODIs: 8 inns, 57 runs, avg. 8.14, SR 79.16.

Cazalys Stadium Cairns Pitch Report and Weather

There has been rain in Cairns recently, which may result in a slower surface. Conditions for this match look good, with partly cloudy weather forecast and just a 20% chance of rain according to bom.gov.au.

This will be the first ODI at this ground since way back in 2003 when Australia hosted Bangladesh. The Tigers were bowled out for just 105 and 147 in those games, owing more to the difference in quality between the teams rather than any pitch demons. The last top-level match was in WBBL 2019, where Brisbane Heat chased down Sydney Thunder’s 171 with three balls to spare. Beth Mooney scored 102 off 55 balls on a good batting deck.

SKN vs GUY Dream11 Prediction & Fan2Play Possible 11 Pitch Report: CPL 2022 Match 7 | SKN vs GUY Dream11 Prediction Today | St Kitts Pitch Report

The final match of the St Kitts leg brings quite a level of importance for both St Kitts and Nevis Patriots and Guyana Amazon Warriors. Both are winless so far this season, with defending champions St Kitts losing twice to Jamaica and Barbados, and Guyana losing their match to Jamaica.

The two CPL 2022 title hopefuls have had their moments early in the season. Guyana were very slow to get going against the Tallawahs, but Romario Shepherd sent a reminder of his finishing abilities. With Odean Smith, Heinrich Klaasen and Keemo Paul also capable of clearing the ropes, the onus is on the top four to produce much better strike rates than they did in their opening match.

St Kitts have started both their matches in promising fashion. They limited Jamaica to a slow start before making a good start with the bat against Barbados. But, apart from Andre Fletcher’s 55-ball 81 last game, their batting has not got going and they didn’t get the chance to rectify that yesterday due to rain. So, this is a battle between two teams looking to find their groove with the bat.

SKN vs GUY Possible Playing XI

Evin Lewis didn’t play the last completed game, reportedly due to injury. It remains to be seen if he plays in this one.

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots: 1. Andre Fletcher, 2. Joshua Da Silva/Evis Lewis, 3. Darren Bravo, 4. Dewald Brevis, 5. Sherfane Rutherford, 6. Dwaine Pretorius, 7. Dwayne Bravo (c), 8. Duan Jansen, 9. Sheldon Cottrell, 10. Jaden Carmichael, 11. Akila Dananjaya

Guyana Amazon Warriors: 1. Paul Stirling, 2. Chandrapaul Hemraj, 3. Shai Hope (wk), 4. Shimron Hetmyer (c), 5. Heinrich Klaasen, 6. Romario Shepherd, 7. Odean Smith, 8. Keemo Paul, 9. Gudakesh Motie, 10. Tabraiz Shamsi, 11. Imran Tahir

SKN vs GUY Head-to-Head Stats and Key Players

St Kitts and Nevis Patriots:

  • Andre Fletcher has struck 112 runs in two games so far in CPL 2022. Can he improve on a poor career record against Guyana (18 inns, 299 runs, avg. 18.69, SR 95.53)?
  • Evin Lewis struck 62 (39), 77* (39) and 30 (28) against Guyana last season.
  • Sherfane Rutherford hit 58 off 34 balls in his last match against Guyana. He will be key against his former team.
  • Could St Kitts use Dwaine Pretorius as a batting floater? He is capable of hitting boundaries quickly. Also, Pretorius will be aiming to get back among the wickets after just one wicket in 36 deliveries (57 runs) so far in CPL 2022.
  • Dwayne Bravo has taken 26 wickets in 22 matches against Guyana at an economy rate of 8.36. The captain took 2/33 in his last match.
  • Sheldon Cottrell has the most wickets in GUY-SKN matches (13) at an average of 25.08 and economy of 9.06.

Guyana Amazon Warriors:

  • Shimron Hetmyer comes into this game after a big struggle in the first match (39 off 45 balls). The captain has scored the most runs in SKN-GUY matches (338) at an average of 56.33 and strike rate of 148.25.
  • Romario Shepherd belted a 17-ball 36 to give Guyana’s innings some life in their last match. St Kitts is not his favourite opponent, however, with just five runs and two wickets in five matches since 2019.
  • Paul Stirling is striking at 148 in 45 short-form matches this year. The Irish opener will be key in providing a quick start at the top.
  • Odean Smith can go for runs especially at the death, but he is a wicket-taker. He took three wickets in as many matches vs St Kitts last season. Also, he could be key as a finisher with the bat.
  • Impressive spinner Gudakesh Motie was one of the most impactful players last game. He took 2/10 to restrict Jamaica.
  • Imran Tahir has 12 wickets in eight matches vs St Kitts and 14 wickets in nine matches on this ground.

Other Stats and Facts

  • Head-to-head: Matches 15, Guyana 10, St Kitts 5.
  • St Kitts won all three matches against Guyana in CPL 2021.
  • Chandrapaul Hemraj scored 39 (30), 27 (24) and 14 (13) against St Kitts last season.
  • Romario Shepherd vs Dwayne Bravo in T20s: 12 balls faced, 25 runs scored, 0 dismissals.
  • Expect Guyana to use Tahir early. He has dominated Andre Fletcher in T20 cricket to date, dismissing him three times for 11 runs in 26 balls.
  • Shimron Hetmyer vs Sheldon Cottrell: 28 balls faced, 46 runs scored, 0 dismissals

Warner Park Basseterre St Kitts Pitch Report and Weather

The weather has played spoilsport at times in CPL 2022, but conditions should be mostly clear for this match.

The average first innings score so far in CPL 2022 is 154.25 (run rate 8.01), with the chasing team winning three of the four completed matches to date.

Pacers have taken 33 wickets this season at an average of 23.21 and economy rate of 8.66. Spinners have taken just 14 wickets at an average of 28.92, but are much more economical (6.53).

Cricket News: Which bowler is the fastest to 200 ODI wickets? | Bowlers who were the fastest to 200 ODI wickets

Mitchell Starc has written another chapter in the wonderful story that is his One Day International (ODI) career, breaking the quickest to reach 200 wickets in terms of matches played.

Starc blew Zimbabwe away in the second ODI in Townsville to reach 199 wickets in his 101st match. He achieved the feat in his 102nd, surpassing the previous record of 104 games held by Pakistan’s Saqlain Mushtaq.

Fastest to 200 ODI wickets

Below is the list of bowlers who were quickest to reach 200 ODI wickets, headed by Australia’s left-arm spearhead.

Mitchell Starc: 101 matches

Starc made his debut in 2010 against India, and he has been a prolific wicket-taker right throughout his ODI career. He has been particularly brilliant in World Cups, taking a combined 49 wickets in the 2015 and 2019 editions respectively. This includes some all-time classic moments against New Zealand in the group stage and Final of the 2015 tournament.

Saqlain Mushtaq: 104 matches

Starc went past legendary Pakistan spinner Saqlain Mushtaq. Saqlain pioneered mystery spin, mastering the art of the doosra to bamboozle many a batsman on his way to 288 ODI wickets in 169 matches at an average of just 21.78 and economy of 4.78.

Brett Lee: 112 matches

Starc’s fellow countryman, Brett Lee, achieved the feat in 112 matches. Lee is widely considered one of the greatest bowlers in the history of ODIs thanks to the combination of his remarkable speed and consistency.

Lee went on to take a superb 380 wickets in 221 matches at an average of 23.36 and economy rate of 4.76. He was particularly outstanding in the 2003 World Cup, playing a key role in helping Australia lift the trophy in South Africa.

Allan Donald: 117 matches

South Africa tearaway Allan Donald reached 200 wickets against Zimbabwe in the 1999 World Cup. The pace bowling legend achieved the feat in 117 matches, all part of his status as one of the Proteas’ best ever fast bowlers.

Donald finished his career with 272 wickets in 164 matches at a superb average of 21.78 and economy rate of just 4.15.

Waqar Younis: 118 matches

The great Waqar Younis was a master in ODI bowling. Not many could get the ball hooping around like he did, which made Pakistan a very competitive unit due to their ability to limit teams at the death.

Waqar finished his illustrious ODI career with 416 wickets in 262 matches at an average of 23.84 and superb economy rate of 4.68 considering the stages he often bowled in.

JAM vs GUY Dream11 Prediction & Fan2Play Possible 11 Pitch Report: CPL 2022 Match 4 | JAM vs GUY Dream11 Prediction | St Kitts Pitch Report

Will this be the year Guyana Amazon Warriors finally go all the way? They have been the league’s nearly men over nine years, qualifying for the playoffs every season and finishing runners up an incredible five times.

CPL 2022 represents a new era of sorts. Shimron Hetmyer is the captain, and if leadership can bring out the best in him, Guyana could be in for a solid campaign. If the top order can set a platform, there are some wonderful hitters down the order that can capitalise at the death.

However, Guyana’s pace bowling stocks will certainly be tested by a confident Jamaica Tallawahs outfit. Life after Andre Russell started perfectly with victory over defending champions St Kitts, with Brandon King making a strong statement early in CPL 2022. Also, the bowling was efficient, limiting a strong St Kitts team to just 136.

JAM vs GUY Possible Playing XI

Jamaica could stick with the same XI that got the job done in their opening match.

Jamaica Tallawahs: 1. Brandon King, 2. Kennar Lewis, 3. Shamarh Brooks, 4. Amir Jangoo (wk), 5. Rovman Powell (c), 6. Fabian Allen, 7. Imad Wasim, 8. Chris Green, 9. Mohammad Amir, 10. Migael Pretorius, 11. Nicholson Gordon

Shimron Hetmyer will lead Guyana. Paul Stirling and Tabraiz Shamsi are currently at The Hundred.

Guyana Amazon Warriors: 1. Chandrapaul Hemraj, 2. Shai Hope (wk), 3. Colin Ingram, 4. Shimron Hetmyer (c), 5. Heinrich Klaasen, 6. Odean Smith, 7. Romario Shepherd, 8. Keemo Paul, 9. Gudakesh Motie, 10. Veerasammy Permaul/Ronsford Beaton, 11. Imran Tahir

JAM vs GUY Head-to-Head Stats and Key Players

Jamaica Tallawahs:

  • Brandon King started the new season with a player of the match 89 off 57 balls vs St Kitts. He will now come up against his former team.
  • Rovman Powell finished the innings well a few nights ago (30 off 15 balls). But, can the Jamaica captain improve on a poor record against Guyana? He has scored just 190 runs in 12 innings at an average of 17.27 and strike rate of 100.
  • Kennar Lewis also has poor numbers against Guyana (51 runs, avg. 10.20, SR 127.50). He comes into this game off a 46-ball 48 against St Kitts after a slow start.
  • Mohammad Amir took 11 wickets in seven matches last season at an average of 13.54 and economy of 6.12. He started CPL 2022 with a brilliant spell of 1/23 vs St Kitts.
  • Nicholson Gordon (3/32) and Migael Pretorius (2/35) combined for five wickets in the last match. Imad Wasim took 3/15 in his last match vs Guyana.

Guyana Amazon Warriors:

  • Will Shimron Hetmyer lead the way with the bat? He has a century against Jamaica, but just 120 runs in the other seven innings against them. Overall, he averages 27.50 with a great strike rate of 153.85.
  • However, Hetmyer has a poor record at St Kitts. He has scored 282 runs in 17 innings at an average of 18.80 and strike rate of 112.80.
  • Can Chandrapaul Hemraj (60 runs, avg. 12.00, SR 113.21) overcome a poor record against Jamaica? He does have a century in 12 T20s at St Kitts, but just 171 runs in the other 11 innings.
  • Henrich Klaasen will be key in the middle overs. He prefers to chase in T20s (avg. 34.38 in 48 innings) compared to batting first (avg. 24.24 in 60 innings).
  • The Odean Smith and Romario Shepherd combination with bat and ball is something to watch out for. Smith took figures of 3/21 and 3/20 against Jamaica last season, while Shepherd also took four wickets in the two games.
  • Also, Shepherd smashed a memorable 31-ball 72* in the last meeting between the teams.
  • Keemo Paul has taken eight wickets in six matches against Jamaica at an average of 17.00 and economy of 8.50.
  • Imran Tahir has taken 13 wickets in eight innings vs Jamaica since 2018 at an average of 12.38 and economy of 5.37. Tahir also loves bowling at St Kitts: 13 inns, 19 wickets, avg. 16.21, SR 15.79.

Other Stats and Facts

  • Head-to-head: Matches 23, Guyana 14, Jamaica 8, N/R 1.
  • Guyana won both matches between the teams last year, as well as eight of the last ten.
  • Promising spinner Gudakesh Motie has taken eight wickets in six T20s on this ground at an average of 15.50 and economy of 6.53.
  • Shai Hope in T20s at St Kitts: 14 inns, 179 runs, avg. 12.79, SR 112.58.

Warner Park Basseterre St Kitts Pitch Report and Weather

The average first innings score so far this season 158.33 at a run rate of 8.33. Jamaica struck 183/2 on this ground and are the only team to win batting first so far.

The forecast is for overcast conditions with the occasional shower. There should hopefully be enough game time for a result.

Looking to implement CSK culture at Johannesburg – Fleming

Cricket News: Looking to implement CSK culture at Johannesburg – Fleming | Stephen Fleming talks about the new CSA T20 league

Stephen Fleming wishes to take forward the values of continuity and deepening relationships whilst coaching the Johannesburg Super Kings (JSK) in the SA20. JSK is owned by the Chennai Super Kings Cricket Limited (CSKCL), which is the holding company of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

CSKCL roped in Fleming and Faf du Plessis as the head coach and captain of JSK respectively. Fleming has donned the coach’s role for CSK since 2009 onwards. Faf is a franchise veteran, having played 100 games and won three IPL titles for them.

“When you get people that you feel really comfortable with, the environment and who you’re with, the culture develops a lot quicker. And once you start to get that cohesion and those connections, the longer you can stay together or the more often you can get together, we think there’s an advantage in that,” Fleming was quoted in a report by ESPNcricinfo.

He added, “Our relationships runs deep and it hurts when we lose players and it’s exciting when we gain new players but relationships are really important and the support staff have been together…the thread of CSK runs pretty deep.”

Take learnings from CSK into Johannesburg – Fleming

Fleming appreciated the ownership for creating a comfortable environment in which all the players perform optimally during their time with the franchise.

In fact, CSKCL have even retained the same support staff for their SA20 venture. Eric Simmons and Albie Morkel will be the assistant coaches whereas Tommy Simsek will be the physio. Russell Radhakrishnan and Gregory King will wear the manager and trainer’s hats respectively. Morkel is an outlier here as he hasn’t coached CSK in any capacity previously. However, the 41-year-old represented the franchise from 2008-13 and won two IPL titles with them.

The fast-paced Wanderers track will be the home ground of the JSK. It marks a stark shift from the spin-friendly pitches in Chepauk that the CSK is used to operating in. However, Fleming and company are viewing it as an opportunity to discard any notions of them being a one-trick pony. He explained that CSK hasn’t been playing out of Chennai in the past few seasons either and that modern players are versatile enough to adapt to different playing conditions.

“We’ve done that just to make it a little bit harder for ourselves to show that we’re not a one-trick pony, which is not a strategic play that Faf was very keen on. But there is some change and one of the skillsets of the modern-day cricketers is that they play on so many different conditions and they’re very versatile. There’s no doubt we created an advantage in Chennai but we haven’t had that for the last three-four years either,” Fleming opened up on the issue.

He added, “So there’s been some real learning about how to adapt to situations and environments as well as looking after home environment as well. So, the first year and the first few weeks are going to be really important. It’s a long-term plan, which is what we’d like to learn as much as we can from the day we touch down and get together.”

The auctions for SA20 will be held on 19th September. JSK named Faf, Moeen Ali, Maheesh Theekshana, Romario Shepherd and Gerald Coetzee as their first five signings in the league.

However, Moeen is most likely to opt out considering that he has also committed to the Sharjah Warriors in the ILT20. The SA20 is set to be held during January-February 2022 and its dates will clash with the newly-launched ILT20. JSK will get the option of signing an additional player in the auctions due to Moeen’s withdrawal, Cricbuzz reports.

PAK vs HK Dream11 Prediction & Fan2Play Possible 11 Pitch Report: Asia Cup 2022 Match 6 | PAK vs HK Dream11 Prediction Today | Sharjah Pitch Report

As was the case in another Bangladesh-Sri Lanka thriller yesterday, the winner will go through to the Super 4 while the loser will leave the Asia Cup. If we get anything like the drama we saw in Dubai last night, we could be in for quite the ride with so much on the line.

That being said, Pakistan have enough depth and talent to get the job done. However, Hong Kong showed against India that they are here to offer a challenge, and they competed for much of the contest as Suryakumar Yadav proved to be the big difference. So, Babar Azam’s team can ill-afford to be complacent.

With a lack of T20I cricket this year, this is an important game for Pakistan. Their batting didn’t fire against India, but the bowlers fought well to come close to defending a sub-150 score. If they can combine both, they will join India, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka in the Super 4 stage with some form under their belt.

PAK vs HK Possible Playing XI

There is some doubt over whether Naseem Shah will play. The seamer struggled with cramps during his brilliant spell against India.

Pakistan: 1. Babar Azam (c), 2. Mohammad Rizwan (wk), 3. Fakhar Zaman, 4. Iftikhar Ahmed, 5. Khushdil Shah, 6. Shadab Khan, 7. Asif Ali, 8. Mohammad Nawaz, 9. Haris Rauf, 10. Naseem Shah/Mohammad Hasnain, 11. Shahnawaz Dahani

Hong Kong should stick with the same team that produced an encouraging performance against India.

Hong Kong: 1. Nizakat Khan (c), 2. Yasim Murtaza, 3. Babar Hayat, 4. Kinchit Shah, 5. Aizaz Khan, 6. Zeeshan Ali, 7. Scott McKechnie (wk), 8. Haroon Arshad, 9. Ehsan Khan, 10. Ayush Shuka, 11. Mohammad Ghazanfar

Key Players to Watch/Key Stats

Pakistan:

  • Babar Azam will be after a big innings. In 12 T20 innings at Sharjah, the Pakistan captain has scored 380 runs at an average of 38.00 and strike rate of 121.79.
  • Mohammad Rizwan struggled at times against India (43 off 42 balls). He returns to a ground he has a good record at: 11 inns, 281 runs, avg. 40.14, SR 123.25.
  • Asif Ali has a strike rate of 164.14 in 14 innings at Sharjah (238 runs, avg. 29.75).
  • Naseem Shah was outstanding on T20I debut against India. If fit, he is sure to test the Hong Kong batsmen after dismissing KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav last match.
  • Mohammad Nawaz (3/33) also performed well vs India. The left-arm spinner will be looking to improve on his numbers at Sharjah: 15 inns, 11 wickets, avg. 39.00, SR 29.27.
  • Haris Rauf has taken eight wickets in just four matches at Sharjah (avg. 13.63, econ. 6.81).

Hong Kong:

  • Babar Hayat played nicely against India (41 off 35 balls). He has the second-most runs for Hong Kong in T20Is (799), with the best average of any player (29.59).
  • Yasim Murtaza scored the most runs in the Asia Cup Qualifier tournament (130) at an average of 43.33 and strike rate of 125.00. He also bowled economically against India (0/27). Key player.
  • Watch out for Zeeshan Ali and Haroon Arshad as key finishers with the bat for Hong Kong. Zeeshan struck 26* off 17 vs India and Haroon has the best strike rate of any Hong Kong player who has faced at least six balls in T20Is (137.82).
  • Ehsan Khan took the most wickets in the recent Qualifier tournament (9) at an average of 9.00 and economy of 6.75. Hong Kong’s second-highest wicket-taker in T20Is (39) was then economical against India (0/26).
  • Aizaz Khan has the most wickets for Hong Kong in T20Is: 48 inns, 58 wickets, avg. 19.56, SR 16.6.

Other Stats and Facts

  • This will be the first T20 International between Pakistan and Hong Kong.
  • The two teams have met in three ODIs in the 2004, 2008 and 2018 ODI Asia Cups. In 2018, Pakistan won easily by eight wickets after rolling Hong Kong for 116 in Dubai.
  • Babar Azam in T20s in 2022: 12 matches, 419 runs, avg. 38.09, SR 121.80.
  • Fakhar Zaman has a strike rate of 147.27 in 11 T20s at Sharjah. The left-hander has struck three fifties in these matches (total of 324 runs, avg. 29.45).
  • Shadab Khan has similar bowling numbers to Mohammad Nawaz in T20s at Sharjah: 15 inns, 12 wickets, avg. 28.58, SR 27.08.

Sharjah Pitch Report and Weather

The average first innings score in 21 T20s at Sharjah in 2021 was 143.85. The chasing team won 11, while the team batting first won 10. Last game, Bangladesh fought to get to 127 against Afghanistan’s spinners who found turn.

Another hot evening is forecast.

SLK vs TKR Dream11 Prediction & Fan2Play Possible 11 Pitch Report: CPL 2022 Match 2 | SLK vs TKR Dream11 Prediction Today | St Kitts Pitch Report

Day two of CPL 2022 is set to be a cracker. St Lucia Kings, who have reached the final in each of the past two seasons, will be hoping that third-time lucky applies this year.

To start off, they have arguably the toughest test in Trinbago Knight Riders. Four-time champions TKR, who have finished first in four of the past five seasons, look even stronger now with the addition of Andre Russell and Nicholas Pooran. It is a wonderful side on first glance, but as was the case with St Kitts, last night, you need to produce on the field.

SLK vs TKR Possible Playing XIs

David Wiese and Tim David played in The Hundred yesterday.

St Lucia Kings: 1. Johnson Charles (wk), 2. Faf du Plessis (c), 3. Mark Deyal, 4. Roston Chase, 5. Ackeem Auguste/Rivaldo Clarke, 6. Matthew Forde, 7. Roshon Primus, 8. Jeavor Royal, 9. Scott Kuggeleijn, 10. Alzarri Joseph, 11. Kesrick Williams

Trinbago are star-studded on paper with the addition of Nicholas Pooran and Andre Russell. Colin Munro is at The Hundred.

Trinbago Knight Riders: 1. Tion Webster, 2. Tim Seifert (wk), 3. Nicholas Pooran, 4. Kieron Pollard (c), 5. Andre Russell, 6. Sunil Narine, 7. Seekkuge Prasanna, 8. Ali Khan 9. Akeal Hosein, 10. Anderson Phillip, 11. Ravi Rampaul

SLK vs TKR head-to-head player stats and key players

St Lucia Kings:

  • Roston Chase had a season to remember in CPL 2021. The all-rounder scored the most runs (446) at an average of 49.55 and strike rate of 144.33. He scored 30* (24), 0 (5) and 36 (21) vs TKR.
  • Chase in T20s at Warner Park: 13 inns, 484 runs, avg. 53.78, SR 143.62.
  • Faf du Plessis has scored just 26 runs in four matches vs TKR. However, the SLK captain has the class to turn this around.
  • du Plessis averages 29.25 in 13 T20s at Warner Park (SR 129.04) and is averaging 29.67 in white-ball cricket in 2022 (SR 130.69).
  • Mark Deyal scored a memorable 78 (44) batting at number three in last year’s Semi Final against TKR.
  • Jeavor Royal is one to watch. The left-arm spinner has taken 14 wickets in 13 innings at an economy rate of just 7.67 (avg. 19.92, SR 15.5).
  • Kestick Williams has the most wickets of any bowler on this ground. The seamer has taken 34 wickets in just 18 T20s at an average of 13.88 and strike rate of 10.12.
  • Against TKR, Williams has 16 wickets in 11 innings.

Trinbago Knight Riders:

  • Tim Seifert vs SLK since the start of 2020: 6 inns, 139 runs, avg. 34.75, SR 143.30.
  • The Kieron Pollard–Andre Russell duo is expected to provide many fireworks. Pollard has smashed 550 runs in 19 innings at Warner Park at an average of 39.29 and strike rate of 156.26. Russell’s strike rate is an incredible 180.80 on this ground (499 runs, avg. 33.27).
  • Since 2019, Pollard has scored 148 runs vs SLK at an average of 29.60 and strike rate of 152.58. He also has taken nine wickets at an average of 16.78 and economy of 7.95.
  • Interestingly, though, Russell has scored just 158 runs in 12 innings vs SLK (avg. 19.75, SR 139.82).
  • Sunil Narine makes up a key part of an extremely strong TKR lineup. In 11 matches vs St Lucia since 2016, Narine has taken just the seven wickets at 34.71 (econ. 5.79). At Warner Park, Narine has the third-most wickets (25) at an average of 20.00 and ER of 5.32.
  • Ravi Rampaul took the most wickets in CPL 2021 (19) at an average of 16.21 and strike rate of 12.2. Seven of these 19 wickets came against St Lucia.

  • Head-to-head: Matches 18, SLK 4, TKR 14.
  • Johnson Charles vs TKR: 18 inns, 553 runs, avg. 29.61, SR 126.00.
  • Roston Chase took 10 scalps at an average of 26.30 and economy rate of 6.92 in CPL 2021. Given the wickets are on the slower side usually, the all-rounder will be key with the ball.
  • It’s a big season for Nicholas Pooran. He averages 27.67 in 16 innings vs SLK (332 runs) at a strike rate of 147.56.
  • Akeal Hosein at Warner Park: 15 inns, 16 wickets, avg. 18.19, econ. 5.39.
  • Alzarri Joseph has taken seven wickets in nine innings vs TKR.

Warner Park Basseterre St Kitts Pitch Report and Weather

Last night, Jamaica struck 183/2 but took a while to get going. In reply, St Kitts never got going, falling 46 runs short on a wicket that was a touch slow.

In CPL 2021, the average first innings score was 162.48. There was a mix of both lower and higher scores. Also, the team batting first won 17 times compared to 16 by the chasing team, so there wasn’t a clear trend.

A warm and clear day is forecast.
