Dhaka team's condition is very bad in this year's BPL. After the victory against Comilla in the first match, the Dhaka team could not win a single match. And in today's match also Dhaka is going to lose against Fortune Barisal.

An excellent partnership between Soumyo and Mahmudullah helped Barisal set a huge target of 190 runs. And as usual the performance of Dhaka players is poor today too. Dhaka managed to collect only 88 runs in 14 overs, losing 5 wickets. Dhaka need 102 runs from 36 balls. It is impossible for the Dhaka batsmen to collect it. Dhaka has to collect 17 runs in every over. None of the team's batsmen are in good form now.

In today Bangladesh Premier League competition, there was a match clash between two squads Fortune Barishal against Durdanto Dhaka squad. Fortune Barishal squad present at top 4 rank in standing table and Durdanto Dhaka squad present at last rank in standing table. Fortune Barishal batting Inning performance was superb and collected a significant defeating target at end of their batting inning. But against squad Durdanto Dhaka was unable to beat all defeating target completely and emerged victory in this match, Durdanto Dhaka just collected 149 scores after playing 19.4 overs and all batter wickets lost. Mohammad Saifuddin bowler picked three batter wickets of Durdanto Dhaka, remaining wickets were picked by other bowlers Obed McCoy, Akif Javed and Mehidy Hasan Mira.

This is 5th straight win for Rangpur Riders in this tournament, they are at number one position on the points table and almost through to next round. Chattogram Challengers are also not much affected because of today's defeat as they are at number 3rd position. There are 20 extras given by Chattogram Challengers in todays game including 14 wides and 1 no ball and that made a huge difference. If you give away too many runs in extras then you are deemed to lose the game.
 

MI Emirates is top team and favourite for this tournament. Dubai victory over top team of this tournament will boost the team confidence. Haider Ali who is picked from domestic cricket of Pakistan was player of the game because of his 3 wicket bowling spell. MI team was only able to make 128 runs in 20 overs, Andre Fletcher was there top scorer with 45 runs inning. Sikandar Raza failed with bat but done good with ball by picking 2 wickets.

SA20 Final: Sunrisers vs Super Giants

Sunrisers won the toss and came to bat first. Super Giants were able to get the Dawid Malan's wickets early, but partnerships of Hermann-Abell (90 runs from 52 balls) and Markram-Stubbs (98 runs from 55 balls) made it feel bike this wicket didn't matter at all.

Abell's dropped catch at 6(7) runs by Naveen-Ul-Haq costed Super Giants good as he went on to make fifty and this was one of two crucial partnerships that helped Sunrisers put up huge total of 204 runs.

Super Giants had real poor start, lost 3 quick wickets under 4 overs and guess the runs? a huge seven! When chasing total as huge as 204, this poor start puts immense pressure on upcoming batsmans. Mulder and Breetzke tried to stitch things up, but it didn't last long, they musher up 56 runs partnership and Mulder departs first; Breetzke shortly after. Now, all hopes on Klassen, but he goes out first ball with LBW and little hope there was for Super Giant to win die along with him.

Pretorius played some good shots, but you knew it wasn't going to be enough and eventually Super Giants succumb at mere 115 and Sunrisers retain the title.

I agree with what you said about the SA20 series and the final game between Sunrisers Eastern Cape and Durban's Super Giants. The match was really exciting and it was smart decision for Sunrisers Eastern Cape to choose to bat first. And you are right they scored 204 runs in just 20 overs which was really impressive and hard to chase. I appreciate the bowling of M.Jansen. He did really well by taking 5 wickets in just 4 overs.

Second T20I between Aussies and WIndies is in progress. WI won the toss and decided to bowl first. We saw a good contest in first T20I where Aussies scored 213 runs batting first while WI were able to make 202 runs in reply. WI have strong hitters in the lineup but it's responsibility of WI bowlers to not give so much runs that are difficult to chase.

The first T20 match between Australia and West Indies was very close with West Indies losing by a small runs. This shows that they can give a tough fight to Australia in the second T20 match too. Australia is leading the series and needs to win today to win the series. However I have doubts about their ability to win easily or even the chance of them losing. The new West Indies team has been performing really well against the strong Australian team which is impressive point.

I also hope so. I think today also Australia team will score above 210 runs like in the first T20 match. Because they have currently scored 100 runs after 10 overs and their current run rate is also currently 10 . I think these are the signals that Australia must score above 200 today. Moreover, they still have some strong batsmen, and we know how capable the Australian team's lower order batsmen can be.

Just as West Indies were whitewashed in the ODI series, I feel this T20 series is also going to be whitewashed by Australia. Although they made an effort in the first T20 match, but the way Australia is running in this match, I think today Australia is going to give a bigger target to the West Indies and it will be more difficult for the West Indies to overcome it. They can use their opportunity if they can get some of the Australian batsmen out in succession. But overall my prediction is that Australia will win today.

Glenn Maxwell is on strike and he needed just 20 runs more to complete his century, if he completes his century so it will be the 5th century of his entire ODI career. Now, he needs just 11 runs more. At this tie, he is batting on 89 while he used just 45 balls. Tim David also batting with him but I know that if he comes on strike so he will take a single and give a chance to bat to Gleen Maxwell. Australian team crossed 200 and on the previous they also made more than 200 and West Indies also made 200 but they lost by some runs and let's see will they again lose by some runs or Australia lost by some wickets.
