South Africa vs West Indies final T20

 



South Africa vs West Indies last T20 will be played tonight and this will be the series decider with the series level 2-2. West Indies will want to continue the momentum they have gained from the previous game and close the series out.

South Africa will want to address their batting problems in the middle and also find a way to fit in an all-rounder to balance the side better. Nortje fitness could be a question for this game after he got hit on the knee and this could be an opportunity for Lizard Williams. Williams could come in for Ngidi if Nortje is fit and Mulder or Phehlukwayo could also come in place of a batsman. 

South Africa will also want to win this one so they will need to get their combination right if they are to do so.


West Indies Probable XI: 1. Lendl Simmons, 2. Evin Lewis, 3. Chris Gayle, 4. Shimron Hetmyer, 5. Kieron Pollard, 6. Nicholas Pooran, 7. Andre Russel, 8. Dwayne Bravo, 9.Akeal Hosein, 10. Obed McCoy, 11. Fidel Edwards

South Africa Probable XI: 1. Janman Malan, 2. Quinton de Kock, 3. Temba Bavuma, Aiden Markram, 5. Kyle Verreynne, 6 Wiaan Mulder,7. Goerge Linde,8. Andile Phehlukwayo/Bjorn Fortuin, 9 Kagiso Rabada, 10. Anrich Nortje/ Lizaard Williams, 11. Tabriz Shamsi


This is what I think the starting XI will look like for today's game. Do share your thoughts in the comment section.

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
