World test championship final

Image
By

 

India vs New Zealand is where the focus of most cricket lovers is right now as both teams get ready to clash in the final of the world test championship. With the final set to happen in England at the Southampton cricket ground both teams are planning r they will make their way to England considering the testing times we in. Both teams will have to go into a quarantine of 10 to 14 days after reaching England before they can start practicing.

New Zealand will be going to England before the end of this month as they have a test series against the English starting on the second of June. India, on the other hand, will only reach England on the 2nd of June in order this giving them enough time to carry out their quarantine and also gives them about 6 days of practice ahead of the WTC final. 

Everyone is saying New Zealand will have an advantage going into the WTC final cause their players will have had some game time where Indian players would only have net practice and inter-squad games.  Although New Zealand will play a warm-up game and 2 tests against England, I still don't think that it will give them an advantage cause during the series against England the pitches will be prepared by the home side. 

The pitch for the WTC will be prepared according to ICC as this will be done on a Neutral basis thus no one will have the advantage going into the game cause conditions will be unknown to both teams until a day or 2 before the game. 

New Zealand is scheduled to play in Birmingham and London and their warm-up game is at Taunton. so both teams will be reaching the venue for the final at the same time. Yes, New Zealand would have had more time to acclimatize to conditions in England but India would also have had 2 weeks to acclimatize by the time the final would start. 

Thus I think that the world test championship final is going to be a tough affair with it being difficult to tell who would come out on top. I'm going with India as they are playing some good cricket at the moment and they have a very balanced squad. New Zealand on the other hand have a good team but they lack in the spin department which could be a big factor in the final.  

Who do you guys think is going to win ....  Do leave your choices in the comments.

      they have a better bowling attack, with four amazing pacers and also they normally play in similar conditions at home

      yes it is a quality Indian team and there pacers are just as good and Southampton is a ground where the pitch tends to assist spin so the longer the game to goes the more it will be in favor of India cause their spinners are much better then NZ. Then again it also might depend on who is batting last. That will be the team who has to face the tougher batting conditions

SA20 review

By
 The SA20 season 2 has ended with Sunrisers Eastern Cape successfully defending their title to win back-to-back titles. The Sunrisers were the team to beat as they played an excellent brand of cricket and dominated throughout the tournament winning 7 matches and losing 2 with 1 no result to top the table in the league stage.  The final of SA20 season 2 was played by the 2 best teams of the tournament the Sunrisers Eastern Cape and Durban Super Giants. Sunrisers proved too good for Super Giants beating them by 89 runs to not only successfully defend their SA20 title but also win the head-to-head between the 2 teams 3-1.  SA20 season 2 saw some unbelievable performances with quite a few young South African players taking the opportunity and shining.

Australia vs Pakistan 3rd test Day 1 review

By
  The third test match between Australia and Pakistan kicked off today at the SCG Sydney. Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first. However, their decision did not go well as the Australian bowlers dominated the Pakistani batsmen from the very beginning. Pakistan lost their openers, Abdulla Shafiq and Saim Ayub early in the innings and were struggling to recover from there. Babar Azam and Shan Masood tried to stabilize the innings, but the Australian bowlers kept on taking wickets at regular intervals. Mohammed Rizwan, Agha Salaman and Aamer Jamal played some excellent innings in the lower middle order to rescue Pakistan  At the end of the day, Pakistan were bowled out for 313 runs. Pat Cummins was the pick of the bowlers for Australia, taking 5 wickets for 61 runs.  Josh Hazlewood took 2 wickets, while Nathan Lyon, Mitchell Starc and Mitchell Marsh took 1 wicket each. Australia are 6-0 at stumps trailing by 307 runs  Australia will be happy with th...
