South Africa vs Ireland 1st ODI preview

South Africa vs Ireland in Dublin starts tomorrow with the first ODI. These ODIs will be important as they count for the world cup super league points and South Africans will want to get their campaign going as they look to kick start their path to qualify for the 2023 world cup.

South Africa will look also to get their combinations right as they continue to look to balance their white-ball teams. The biggest question will be can they fit in an all-rounder in the team to give themselves a sixth bowling option that will balance the side better.

Ireland will want to reboot their bid to qualify for the 2023 world cup as they have played 9 matches and only got 20 points so far. These matches will be very crucial for them as defeat will leave them highly likely to fail to qualify directly for the world cup.

Ireland Probable XI: 1. Paul Sterling, 2. Jeremy Lawlor, 3. Andy Balbirnie, 4. Harry Tector, 5. Curtis Campher, 6. Lorcan Tucker, 7.Simi Singh, 8. Andy Mcbrine, 9 Barry McCarthy, 10. Josh Little, 11. Craig Young.

South Africa Probable XI: 1 Quinton de Kock, 2. Aiden Markram, 3. Temba Bavuma, 4. Rassie van der Dussen, 5. David Miller, 6. Wiaan Mulder, 7. Andile Phehlukawayo, 8. Keshav Maharaj, 9. Kagiso Rabada, 10 Anrich Nortje, 11 Tabraiz Shamsi

this what I think the starting XI will look like for tomorrows game.

this is what the world cup super league table looks like so far

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.
