To be honest, the Indian team is very good but Australia is no less than them. They are a beast and we have seen this in their previous matches performance against Afghanistan. I wanted to see these two teams play in the final of the Champions Trophy, but now we are going to see the big match in the semi-final. I am not sure who will win this match, but I am sure the one who will win this semi-final will also win the final because I don't think New Zealand and South Africa can beat India or Australia, whoever reaches the final match.

Tomorrow the first semi-final game will be played between two beast teams India and Australia. Both the teams are going to give tough competition for victory. If we talk about the overall performance of both the teams, in my opinion India has more strength than Australia because India has a strong batting and bowling line-up. In their previous games, India has beaten strong teams like New Zealand, Pakistan, and Bangladesh by a great margin. India has secured 6 points in this series. On the other hand, Australia is also a strong team but unfortunately their games were abandoned because of the rain. In the 3rd match, Australia defeated England by 5 wickets and secured 4 points. In my opinion, India is going to win tomorrow's semi-final and will win the final as well. But let's see what happens because we can expect anything from both the teams.

No doubt, Australia is in danger now. As they lost their main weapon, one and the only Travis Head but still they have many different players to make come back but right now India is dominating the Australian team. Australia lost their both of the openers Travis Head and Cooper Connolly. Steven Smith the captain is batting right now and all hopes are with him.

I think Australia should not need to lose their confidence and hopes as they still have Josh Inglis and Maxwell to recover the game. They have the ability to change the game. And Aussie’s bowling attack is also very good.

Australia's batting line-up is quite strong and even if two or three batsmen get out, they have enough players to pull them out of their batting woes. Travis Head is out. It's a sad situation for Australia but Steven Smith is taking Australia out of that bad situation and has scored 186 runs in 35 overs so far. Australia are in line to score something like 300 runs and if they can bat for 50 overs then the runs can definitely reach 300.

I am supporting that Australia's Travis Head was the biggest obstacle to India, but see this player could not play well today. When Indian fast bowler Mohammad Shami dismissed the Australian opening batsman today, the team was completely pushed then, meaning their batting backbone was almost broken. Then we thought that the Australian team had some batsmen who would be able to recover the game at any time.

Australia's batting hasn't been good, and it doesn't seem very reasonable for us to put confidence in their bowling line-up either, because if Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins were there, then maybe we would have blindly accepted that Australia would win today.

Today in first semifinal of the Champions Trophy2025 things are going into Indian favor as first their bowlers done good job and restricted Australians on 264 which is good target to chase on this pitch and in these batting friendly conditions.

Mohammad Shami was pick of the bowlers from Indian side while Steven Smith 73 and Alex Carey 61 done good job for Australia now while India is on chase sloppy Australia done few mistakes which give good advantage to India which is now having strong position for win in this game and having spot into final.


King Kohli on crease with another fabulous inning while Axar Patel giving good support now India required 103 runs in 18 overs with 7 wickets in hand It's going to be interesting end of this game.

Sorry Australia team to lose semi final game and India is really a strong team and wining the match. India team won game by 4 wickets and 11 balls. Australia set a record total runs for 264 and lost the match. India chased a record total runs for 267 and won the match. The 1st semi final match between India and Australia was played at Dubai International Cricket Stadium . Australia won the toss and elected to batting first. Virat Kohli is a very talented and great player of India team member. The best batting performance in the India team was by Virat Kohli scored 84 runs and 98 balls hitting 5 fours and 0 sixs. Congratulations to India for their upcoming lpppomatches.

There was quite a bit of excitement in the first semi-final match of the ICC Champions Trophy. I think Hardik Pandya did the most important job in this match. At one point in this match, when India needed 24 runs off 21 balls adam Zampa was bowling then but he was unable to bowl correctly in that over. I mean that Hardik Pandya was constantly hitting two sixes, which India had been able to win this match very easily.

As you mentioned Alex Carey was run out with three overs to go, maybe if he hadn't been out Australia could have added a few more runs. Anyway today is the second semifinal match, the New Zealand cricket team will definitely be at the top of everyone's favorite list in this match.

In the ODI World Cup we saw that India was unbeaten in any match before the final match, so crores of Indian fans were hoping that India would give them the World Cup at home, but in the final, the opponent Australia and Australia completely shattered this dream of India. Despite India being hot favourites, they defeated India on home soil and came home to Australia with the World Cup trophy. 

India faced Australia again in this Champions Trophy and there too Australia had a chance to defeat India but India did not give Australia that chance in the semi-final match. Rather, team India was able to keep Australia under 300 runs by bowling brilliantly in the first innings and they also batted responsibly to win the team. I think beating Australia was definitely sweet revenge for Team India. Australia was the biggest obstacle for India in this tournament but India has overcome that obstacle so I think now it is a little bit easier for India to win the Champions Trophy.

The game has been changed a lot in the level at the moment. At the end of 32 overs, the New Zealand team was batting at the loss of a single wicket and they made more than 200, but now the six overs are left. Meanwhile, on the 44th over, New Zealand had collapsed, as they were on 270 something. By the way, today once again Rachin Ravindra did not disappoint us with his performance, he also scored a century, but now they just want to win and nothing else.



Can New Zealand go ahead of 320? This is a Lahore pitch, so South Africa can also make 300 easily. Let's see. I see that the game is dependent upon the bowlers of New Zealand.
