Euro 2021



The Euro 2021 has got off to a good start and after today each team would have played a match. It's going to be interesting to see which teams make it to the round of 16 as the tournament progresses the fight for places are going to be tight. 

The teams that come out third will want to be in the best possible position in terms of points and goal difference as this will give them a chance to secure one of the last 4 places available in the round of 16. The top 2 of each group will qualify thus 12 teams of 16 and the last 4 places will be the best four of the teams in the third spot in the group stages.

 The main goal of each team will be to claim a top 2 spot thus games in the coming weeks could get very interesting as a third spot finish does not guarantee a place in the round of 16 in actually leaves teams to depend on other teams to help them out and no team wants to be in that position.

the round of 16 brack looks like this in the image below 


I'm going to predict my top 12 teams who I think will finish in the top 2 spots of each group 

Group A:  Italy and Wales

Group B: Belgium and Denmark

Group C: Netherlands and Ukraine

Group D: Croatia and England 

Group E: Spain and Poland 

Group F: France and Germany 


These were my thought do share yours in the comment section below

Proteas vs India 2nd test Day 1 review

  The second test match between Proteas and India kicked off on a high note with the hosts putting up a horrendous batting performance on day 1.

Pakistan vs Australia 2nd test Day 1 review

 Australia and Pakistan faced off in the second Test match at MSG. Pakistan won the toss and elected to bowl first. The visitors started well with opening bowlers Shaheen Afridi and Mir Hamza getting the ball to move off the seam. However, the Australian batter struck back with a good opening partnership of 90 runs. Australia finished the day at 187/3 off 66 overs as rain played spoilsport, with Hasan Ali, Agha Salman and Aamer Jamal the pick of the bowlers. It was a tough day for the Pakistani bowlers as they struggled to cause Australian bowlers for long enough periods at a time, but they will look to bounce back on Day 2. The Australian batsman will be aiming to put up a big total for their bowlers to bowl too. Overall, it was an exciting day of Test cricket and fans can look forward to more action in the coming days.  Writer: Ebrahim Yusuf Omar
