TKR vs GAW (Match-19) – Highlights 

 

In the 19th match of Caribbean Premier League 2024, Trinbago Knight Riders won an exciting encounter by 5 wickets against Guyana Amazon Warriors at Port of Spain. The chase of 149 saw Trinbago reach 149/5 in 19.2 overs, courtesy of an unbeaten powerful 36 off 15 balls by Andre Russell, who was named Player of the Match. The Russell explosive knock came at the right time and saw his team cross the finish line with four balls to spare. Guyana Amazon Warriors had earlier posted 148/7, but Trinbago’s strong batting lineup ensured they won in the nail-biting finish.

 

The Guyana Amazon Warriors struggled to build momentum, posting a total of 148/7 in 20 overs. Opener Tim Robinson contributed a solid 34 off 28 balls, hitting four boundaries before being caught by Bravo off Waqar Salamkheil. Kevin Sinclair followed with a modest 9 off 10, while captain Shai Hope managed only 5 before being stumped by Pooran off Sunil Narine. Shimron Hetmyer added 7 from 8 balls, and Moeen Ali chipped in with 11, but neither could stabilize the innings. Lower down the order, Romario Shepherd played a standout knock, smashing an unbeaten 51 from just 24 balls, including three fours and four sixes. He was well-supported by Dwaine Pretorius, who remained not out on 21. Their partnership helped push Guyana to a competitive score after early struggles.

 

In the bowling attack for Trinbago Knight Riders, Waqar Salamkheil and Sunil Narine were the standout performers in restricting Guyana Amazon Warriors to 148/7. Salamkheil delivered an impressive spell, taking 2 wickets for just 19 runs in his 4 overs at a superb economy rate of 4.75. Narine was equally effective, also claiming 2 wickets for 24 runs in his full quota of 4 overs, keeping the pressure on the batters with an economy of 6.00. Akeal Hosein was economical, taking 1 wicket for 20 runs in his 4 overs, conceding just one boundary. Dwayne Bravo and Andre Russell, however, were more expensive, with Bravo conceding 41 runs and taking 1 wicket in his 4 overs, while Russell went wicketless, giving away 20 runs in his 2 overs at an economy of 10.00. Terrance Hinds also had a costly spell, leaking 24 runs in his 2 overs without taking a wicket.

 

In the chase for 149, Trinbago Knight Riders chased it down with 5 wickets in hand and 4 balls to spare, ending up at 149/5 in 19.2 overs. Opening batsman Shaqkere Parris was the one who gave the solid beginning – 29 off 29 balls, with two boundaries and two sixes. He was dismissed by Nathan Sowter. Sunil Narine then added a rapid 11 off 6. Keacy Carty never got going, adding 10 off 16 balls. Nicholas Pooran made 19 off 17 before he was LBW to Keemo Paul, and the skipper, Kieron Pollard, made just 8. But Tim David and Andre Russell saw them through: the former unbeaten with 31 off 24 balls, with one four and two sixes; the latter’s unbeaten 36* off mere 15 balls included four sixes, which sealed the game. Trinbago won by 5 wickets with a run rate of 7.70.

 

Against their total of 148, the Guyana Amazon Warriors bowling had a mixed performance in defending against Trinbago Knight Riders. Dwaine Pretorius’s spell was economical, as he bowled wicketless, giving away 26 runs in his quota of 4 overs at an economy of 6.50. Moeen Ali bowled wonderfully during his spell of 2 overs, giving away only 5 runs and taking the crucial wicket of Sunil Narine at an economy of 2.50. Shamar Joseph was steady, returning 1 wicket for 27 runs in his 4 overs, while Gudakesh Motie went for 16 runs in his 2 overs wicket-less. Nathan Sowter took two wickets for 37 runs in his 4 overs though expensive with an economy of 9.25. Keemo Paul too had one of the bad days at the office and ended up picking up 1 wicket while conceding 38 runs in 3.2 overs, including four sixes.

Cricket Match Prediction CPL 2024 Trinbago Knight Riders vs Antigua and Barbuda Falcons Match 20 Sept 20 – Can ABF defeat the second-placed TKR

TKR vs ABF Match Analysis

 

The Trinbago Knight Riders vs. Antigua and Barbuda Falcons will be the 20th encounter of the CPL 2024. The scheduled date and time for the match are 20th September 2024, 5:00 AM in Queen’s Park Oval, Port of Spain, Trinidad.

 

The Trinbago Knight Riders are a balanced squad with a mix of seasoned campaigners and young talent. They have been winning a lot lately and brought themselves into a position toward the top of the standings, so they are sure contenders. They can blow teams away with the power hitting, coupled with controlled bowling to keep things tight.

 

The Antigua and Barbuda Falcons have failed to live up to expectations for much of the tournament, as some big wins have been tempered by losses due to leaky bowling and a batting lineup that hasn’t always responded to the pressure.

Afghanistan vs South Africa (1st ODI) – Highlights

 

In this article, we will discuss the 1st ODI between Afghanistan and South Africa, held in Sharjah on September 18, 2024. Afghanistan secured a convincing 6-wicket victory over South Africa, successfully chasing a modest target of 107 runs. Afghanistan’s bowling attack, spearheaded by Fazalhaq Farooqi and Ghazanfar, tore through South Africa’s batting lineup. With key support from Gulbadin Naib and Azmatullah Omarzai, the Afghan bowlers orchestrated a commanding win, leaving the Proteas in disarray. 

 

In the 1st ODI in Sharjah on September 18, 2024, South Africa struggled, being bowled out for just 106 runs. Afghanistan’s bowlers dominated the game, restricting the opposition to a low total. Chasing 107, Afghanistan reached the target comfortably, scoring 107/4 in just 26 overs, winning by 6 wickets with 144 balls remaining. It was a commanding performance by Afghanistan, showcasing their growing strength in international cricket.

 

In the 1st ODI between South Africa and Afghanistan, South Africa struggled immensely with the bat, managing only 106 runs in 33.3 overs. Afghanistan’s bowling attack, led by Fazalhaq Farooqi, dismantled the South African batting lineup early, with wickets falling rapidly.

 

Reeza Hendricks (9) was the first to go, bowled by Farooqi, followed by captain Aiden Markram (2) and Tony de Zorzi (11), both also victims of Farooqi’s excellent spell. The middle order crumbled as Tristan Stubbs fell for a duck, and Kyle Verreynne (10) was trapped LBW by Ghazanfar. Jason Smith also departed without scoring, leaving South Africa reeling at 29-5.

 

Wiaan Mulder put out a strong effort, scoring the most with a resolute 52 off 84 balls, five boundaries, and one six. But from the lower echelon, he got little backing. Before being dismissed by Rashid Khan, who later trapped Lungi Ngidi LBW for a duck, Bjorn Fortuin scored sixteen. 

 

This put an end to South Africa’s innings. Ghazanfar claimed 3 wickets for just 20 runs, while Farooqi concluded with 4 wickets for 35 runs. After taking two wickets to end the innings, Rashid Khan bowled South Africa out for a pitiful 106.

 

In Afghanistan’s chase of 107 runs, they faced some early setbacks but ultimately secured a comfortable 6-wicket victory in 26 overs. South Africa struck early, with Lungi Ngidi removing opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz for a duck in the first over. Bjorn Fortuin then made further inroads, dismissing Rahmat Shah (8) and Riaz Hassan (16), leaving Afghanistan at 38-3.

 

Captain Hashmatullah Shahidi (16) looked to stabilize the innings but was trapped LBW by Aiden Markram, reducing Afghanistan to 60-4. However, Azmatullah Omarzai (25*) and Gulbadin Naib (34*) formed a crucial unbeaten partnership to guide Afghanistan to victory. Naib’s aggressive 34 off 27 balls, which included 3 fours and 2 sixes, ensured a quick finish with 144 balls remaining.

 

On the bowling front, Fortuin was the standout for South Africa, taking 2 wickets for 22 runs, while Ngidi and Markram claimed one wicket each. Despite their efforts, Afghanistan chased down the modest target with ease.

Afghanistan’s cricket journey has been a story of rapid growth and increasing prominence on the global stage. Led by Captain Hashmatullah Shahidi, the team has displayed exceptional resilience and skill.

His leadership has been key in molding Afghanistan into a more formidable and tactically sound side.

 

Rashid Khan’s magic spin, Nabi’s all-round mastery, and Rahmat Shah’s rock-solid middle-order game are the cornerstones of Afghanistan’s success, keeping the team ticking like a well-oiled cricket machine.

AFG vs SA Outfield Report

 

Cricket Prediction | Afghanistan vs South Africa | 2nd ODI | Sept 20 – Will AFG Maintain Their Winning Momentum? Sharjah Cricket Stadium

 

The pitch at Sharjah Cricket Stadium is well-known for its slow, low bounce, which tends to benefit spinners, especially in the latter stages of the game. Early on, batsmen can capitalize on a fresher wicket, allowing for easier stroke play.

 

Sharjah’s weather is typically dry and scorching, with daytime temperatures frequently exceeding 35°C (95°F), particularly during cricket season. These conditions can be physically demanding for players.

 

Historically, Sharjah has been a significant venue for ODI cricket since the 1980s. In the earlier years, totals between 220 and 240 were often enough to win. but totals above 300 remain challenging to pursue, particularly when the pitch slows down in the second innings.
