CPL 2024 Prediction: ABF vs TKR

CPL: ABF vs TKR Prediction & Betting Tips

Antigua and Barbuda Falcons gear up to host Trinbago Knight Riders on 6th September at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua in their forthcoming Caribbean Premier League 2024 match. Both teams have had a contrasting start to the CPL 2024 season. Catch the CPL match prediction on the GUGOBET cricket betting app for Antigua and Barbuda Falcons vs Trinbago Knight Riders.

The Falcons have had a disappointing start to the season losing all the matches played while Trinbago has won the only match they have featured in thus far. Will the Falcons break the curse or Trinbago continue on their winning streak? Let’s decode this in our ABF vs TKR prediction.

ABF vs TKR Match Analysis

Antigua and Barbuda Falcons Team Preview

The hosts have had a disappointing start to the tournament. They are yet to get points on board after four matches. Both the batting and bowling unit have let them down on the given occasion. The Chris Green-led side needs to make quick amends to their strategy if they want to get back to the winning ways.

Jewel Andrew has been the top performer for the team who has been scoring with an average of over 40 runs. Eyes will be on him once again in the forthcoming CPL fixture. Jewel is one of the top run scorers in this tournament thus far.

Interestingly, ABF has batted first in the matches and has not been able to defend their scores. Their lead pacer Mohammad Amir did not pick up any wickets in this tournament which is a major sign of worry for ABF. Amir’s form can change the tide for Antigua going ahead in CPL 2024.

Probable XI – Chris Green ©, Mohammad Amir, Teddy Bishop, Fabian Allen, FK Zaman, SK Springer, Sam Billings (wk), RS Primus, IM Wasim, KHM James, Jewel Andrew.

Trinbago Knight Riders Team Preview

Trinbago Knight Riders will only be playing their second match of CPL 2024. They comfortably won their first match with a huge margin of 44 runs after putting 250 runs on the board. Nicholas Pooran led the scores for TKR with 97 runs in just 43 balls. Sunil Narine added 38 runs to the tally with an SR of 200.

Bowlers did well to defend the mammoth total. Sunil Narine was the pick of the bowlers picking 2 wickets while giving away just 24 runs in his quota of four overs.

Led by veteran Kieron Pollard, TKR’s squad looks dangerous and full of in-form superstars. Pooran, Narine, Pollard, DJ Bravo, and Jason Roy are names to fear. The Knight Riders surely start as the favourites to win this forthcoming fixture. 

Probable XI – Jason Roy, Sunil Narine, Nicholas Pooran, Shaqkere Parris, Keacy Carty, Kieron Pollard ©, Dwayne Bravo, Nathan Edwards, Joshua Little, Waqar Salamkheil, Terrance Hinds.

Venue and Pitch report

The pitch at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua typically offers a balanced contest between bat and ball. Early on, seamers might get some movement, while as the game progresses, it tends to favour spinners. Batsmen who apply themselves can score heavily, especially in the middle overs.

ABF vs TKR CPL 2024 Winner Prediction and Betting Tips

ABF vs TKR Winner Prediction

Trinbago Knight Riders have a stronger squad combination and more in-form players as compared to Antigua and Barbuda Falcons. We predict the Trinbago Knight Riders to win the forthcoming CPL fixture.

Top run scorer

Nicholas Pooran played a destructive knock in the first match. He is the man in form and you cannot bet against this guy. Nicholas Pooran is likely to be the top run-getter in this fixture.

Most wickets

We are backing Sunil Narine to bag the most wickets in this fixture.

Overall, TKR has an obvious upper hand going into this fixture and is likely to come out on top in this match. Sign Up now on our Cricket Betting App – GUGOBET and use our CPL bonus while betting on CPL 2024!

The 2nd and 3rd T20Is are scheduled on September 6th and September 7th respectively. The Australia Tour of Scotland is happening for the first time in cricket history, and fans are eager to witness the Scot vs Aus contest. 

We at GUGOBET cricket betting app analyse the Scotland vs Australia T20I series along with the winner prediction.

Australia Tour of Scotland 2024 Schedule

1st T20I – September 4th at 6:30 PM IST (2 PM Local Time), Grange Cricket Club Ground, Raeburn Place, Edinburgh

2nd T20I – September 6th at 6:30 PM IST (2 PM Local Time), Grange Cricket Club Ground, Raeburn Place, Edinburgh

3rd T20I – September 7th at 6:30 PM IST (2 PM Local Time), Grange Cricket Club Ground, Raeburn Place, Edinburgh

Scotland vs Australia T20I Series Preview

Scotland Preview:

Squad:

Richie Berrington (c), Charlie Cassell, Matthew Cross (wk), Brad Currie, Jasper Davidson, Chris Greaves, Ollie Hairs, Jack Jarvis, Michael Jones, Michael Leask, Brandon McMullen, George Munsey, Safyaan Sharif, Chris Sole, Charlie Tear (wk), Mark Watt, Brad Wheal.

Recent Form: Lost, Won, Won, NR, Lost

It’s a big collaboration between Scotland and Australia, marking history by playing their first-ever bilateral T20I series. Scotland missed out on Super 8 qualification by a whisker in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 held in the USA & West Indies a few months back. They were placed in the same group that involved former champions England and Australia. The contest against England washed out at the mid-way due to rain whereas they lost to Australia by 5 wickets that went down to the wire. 

Meanwhile, they bossed Namibia and Oman by 5 wickets and 7 wickets respectively to finish 3rd in the Group B standings with 5 points. Scotland with their bold performances made a clear statement that they can’t be taken lightly anymore. The big trio George Munsey, Brandon McMullen, and skipper Richie Berrington impressed with their batting show with all of them scoring more than 100 runs each. Top order batter Michael Jones who represents Durham took a break in between the T20 Blast and featured in the marquee event and managed 89 runs across 4 innings. 

Front-line pacer Brad Wheal bagged the honours with the ball, picking up 5 wickets, most for Scotland, while fellow pacer Safyaan Sharif and left-arm spinner Mark Watt picked up 4 wickets and 3 wickets respectively. 

The 15-member side that featured in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 held in June has been retained while rookie seamers Charlie Cassell and Jasper Davidson who made waves in the recent ICC CWC League 2 held in July have been added to the T20I squad. Charlie Cassell garnered attention with a 7-wicket haul in his ODI debut against Oman while Jasper Davidson too came into the limelight with a 4-fer on his debut outing against similar opponents. Interestingly both Cassell and Davidson are in the line to make their T20I debuts. 

The forthcoming series against Australia will be Scotland’s second bilateral T20I assignment this year following their 2-1 away victory over the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in March. They previously hosted New Zealand in 2022, losing it badly by 2-0. 

Current skipper Richie Berrington is their all-time leading run-scorer in T20Is, amassing 2194 runs in 94 matches at an average of 32.26 which comprises 10 half-centuries and a century. The 28-year-old left-arm spinner Mark Watt tops the leading wicket-takers chart with 80 scalps. 

Australia Preview:

Squad:

Mitchell Marsh (c), Sean Abbott, Xavier Bartlett, Cooper Connolly, Tim David, Nathan Ellis, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Cameron Green, Aaron Hardie, Travis Head, Josh Inglis (wk), Riley Meredith, Marcus Stoinis, Adam Zampa.

Recent form: Lost, Lost, Won, Won, Won

Australia haven’t featured in any International contest since their disappointing exit from the T20 World Cup 2024. They incurred a shocking 21-run loss against Afghanistan in one of the Super 8s fixtures and were knocked out of the competition by India in the follow-up by 24 runs. The ageing squad and not a lot of exposure to turning tracks of the Caribbean meant they packed the bags way too early. Not the send-off batting stalwart David Warner would have imagined as he bid adieu to the T20Is at the end of the tournament. 

With a big summer coming up, the selectors decided to give a break for their key players hence super stars Glenn Maxwell, Pat Cummins, and Mitchell Starc have been rested while ace pacer Josh Hazlewood who was initially in the squad was ruled out with calf strain and he will be replaced by Riley Meredith. The injury list goes on as left-arm seamer Spencer Johnson has been sidelined with a side strain which he picked up while playing in The Hundred for Oval Invincibles and Sean Abbott comes in as his replacement. 

Mitchell Marsh who failed to take the side to the knockouts in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 has been backed and handed the responsibilities to lead the side again in the forthcoming T20Is against hosts Scotland. Xavier Bartlett who made his ODI and T20I debut against West Indies earlier this year comes back into the squad while dashing young batter Jake Fraser McGurk who was in the reserves in ICC T20 World Cup 2024 cuts. Western Australian player Cooper Connolly has been handed his maiden Australia-call up following his impressive show in domestic cricket and the Big Bash League.

In and out of the side since making his ODI and T20I debut against South Africa last year, all-rounder Aaron Hardie finds his place. Travis Head, Tim David, Marcus Stoinis, Adam Zampa, Cameron Green, Josh Inglis, Nathan Ellis, and skipper Mitchell Marsh who were part of the T20 World Cup squad have been retained. 

It’s a completely new experience for the troops who have never been to Scotland before although they have the potential to adjust to the conditions quickly. 

Scot vs Aus T20I Series 2024 Winner Prediction

Both Scotland and Australia have played against each other only once before in the T20Is with the latter coming on top right at the end by 5 wickets. Considering the squad’s depth and overall experience, Australia has a huge chance of winning the series 2-1. 

Top Picks Scotland vs Australia T20Is

George Munsey:

George Munsey is a busy cricketer at the crease and a clean striker of the cricket ball. He made his Scotland debut against Ireland in 2015 and to date he featured in 71 T20Is, scoring 2006 runs at an average of 31.34 with the best score of 132. You can put your money on him in the Scotland vs Australia T20I series.

Jake Fraser McGurk:

Jake Fraser McGurk who featured in 2 ODIs for Australia earlier this year against West Indies is set to make his T20I debut in the upcoming series against Scotland. McGurk is termed as the perfect replacement for outgoing David Warner. The 22-year-old dashing opener caught the selector’s eye in the 2023/24 Big Bash League where he smacked 257 runs in 8 innings for Melbourne Renegades. 

His fearless approach was enough to make his ODI debut against the West Indies. His big-hitting prowess was further recognized in the cash-rich Indian Premier League where he accounted for 330 runs in 9 matches for Delhi Capitals at a whopping strike rate of 234.04 which comprises 4 half-centuries. It’s advisable to bet on him on our cricket betting app.

West Indies vs South Africa T20 2024 Prediction

South Africa Tour Of West Indies 2024 T20 Series Prediction

West Indies and South Africa are no newcomers to each other, especially in this format, having played a three-match T20I series in Jamaica in May, before the 2024 T20 World Cup, and meeting in the Super Eights stage! However, with the T20 World Cup over and the next one in February 2026, both teams hope to allow a few fresh players to shine on the international scene during this West Indies vs South Africa T20 series.

All three games in this three-match series will be contested in Tarouba’s Brian Lara Stadium, where we can expect large attendance due to a Women’s CPL fixture immediately following each game. The West Indies had a perfect record in the previous series, but South Africa won the last head-to-head, thus this could be an exciting contest to start the newest Wi vs SA series. 

In addition, the South Africans have recently won the 2-match test series (1-0) before this West Indies vs South Africa T20 series. However, the West Indies players will be looking to make amends in the shorter game format where their skills are more in use. The Windies have been a top-notch side in the shorter format of the game, despite having a poor ICC T20 2024 World Cup. 

Check the following detailed analysis from GUGOBET.

Where is West Indies vs South Africa T20 2024?

The West Indies vs South Africa 3-match T20 series is taking place in the West Indies at Tarouba’s Brian Lara Stadium.

Venue and pitch report for the WI vs SA T20 2024 3-Match series

The weather predicts plenty of cloud cover during Friday afternoon in Tarouba, with a continual threat of light showers. It will be steamy from start to finish, and the outside temperature isn’t going to drop below 30 degrees throughout the match, whether it is raining or sunny! Throughout the 2024 T20 World Cup, there were some low-scoring matches on this surface, but England did score 267/3 in one! We predict this pitch to be more like the December 2023 match than the one we witnessed a few months ago, with a par score of 200 or higher.

Squads for the WI vs SA T20 2024 3-match series

West Indies predicted Xl: 

Johnson Charles, Alick Athanaze, Shimron Hetmyer, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Rovman Powell (c), Roston Chase, Sherfane Rutherford, Romario Shepherd, Matthew Forde, Obed McCoy, Akeal Hosein

Team Preview: 

Despite the significant gap until the forthcoming T20 World Cup, the West Indies have chosen established and marginal players to make this squad rather than giving any young blood a chance. Only young batsman Alick Athanaze and bowler Matthew Forde, who have three T20I caps between them, can be called inexperienced in this format! 

The group lacks some seasoned heads in the form of Andre Russell, Jason Holder, and Alzarri Joseph, but with Obed McCoy and Romario Shepherd on the roster, there should be no shortage of excellent pace bowling. On the other hand, Nicholas Pooran is still in good form with the bat, and Johnson Charles has had a great recent record versus South Africa. We also anticipate Shimron Hetmyer, who has long had trouble establishing himself in the team, to be given another chance.

South Africa predicted Xl: 

Aiden Markram (c), Reeza Hendricks, Rassie van der Dussen, Ryan Rickelton (wk), Tristan Stubbs, Jason Smith, Wiaan Mulder, Ottneil Baartman, Lungi Ngidi, Bjorn Fortuin, Kwena Maphaka.

Team Preview: 

With several major names rested or occupied throughout this T20I series, some of South Africa’s secondary players will have numerous opportunities to make an impact. In reality, only skipper Aiden Markram, opener Reeza Hendricks, and intriguing new batter Tristan Stubbs have been named to the squad for this series, despite coming close to defeating India in the final in late June.

Many cricket fans from around the world will be checking over the team rosters at the toss, looking for the name Kwena Maphaka. The left-arm fast bowler rose to prominence after being named Player of the Tournament at the 2024 Under-19 World Cup, and he will almost certainly get his first international cap in this match. 

Rassie van der Dussen is a steady presence with the bat in whatever format of the game, and Jason Smith is expected to make his middle-order debut after impressing for the Dolphins in the CSA T20 Challenge earlier this year.

WI vs SA T20: Players to watch out for

West Indies:

Nicolas Pooran: The wicket-keeper batsman is one of the most exciting players to watch out for this upcoming 3-match T20i series against the South Africans. He enjoys the shorter format of the game and boasts of a high strike rate in the T20s. Not only that, Pooran usually takes no time in whacking the ball out of the grounds and is a safe bet for bettors trying to bet on a batsman for this particular series. The South African bowlers will have to watch out for the batting prowess of Pooran for this upcoming series.

Romario Shepherd: The all-rounder will be a crucial asset for the West Indies side as he possesses immense striking ability with the bat and has a knack for taking important wickets at crucial moments of the game. Shepherd has stolen the headlines lately with a brilliant performance in franchise cricket with the Mumbai Indians during the 2024 IPL. The South Africans will have to be careful dealing with Sheperd and his abilities throughout the series.

South Africa:

Aiden Markram: The South African captain is one to watch for this Wi vs SA T20 series as he is tough to stop once he gets going into the game. Markram is more of a steady-headed batsman and will play a crucial role in leading the batting attack for the South Africans. He has a great ability to read the situation of the game and play accordingly. The West Indies bowlers will have to take out Markram early in the shorter format as he will be too tough to handle once he is in form.

Kwena Maphaka: Kwena Tshegofatso Maphaka will be a thrilling spectacle for cricket fans all around the world. He is predominantly a left-arm medium-fast bowler. He represented South Africa in the Under-19 World Cup, taking three wickets for 32 runs in ten overs against India in the semi-finals. Not only that, He also debuted with the Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2024. Maphaka will seek to make an impact in the WI vs SA T20 2024 series to secure his spot as a starter. In addition, the West Indies batsman will have to handle Maphaka’s early assault in the power play carefully.

Has West Indies won a Test series in South Africa?

Yes, the West Indies have won a test series against South Africa. Also, South Africa and the West Indies have played 34 Test matches. South Africa has won 23 of these 34 games, with the West Indies winning three. 8 matches ended in a tie. Also, the West Indies have never won a test series in South Africa as of yet.

WI vs SA T20 2024: Winning Prediction

Although South Africa advanced further in the 2024 T20 World Cup than the West Indies, the latter has a strong recent record in the bilateral T20I series. Furthermore, South Africa is missing many of its leading batters and bowlers, hence we expect the host team to win this WI versus SA T20 2024 three-match series.

India vs Sri Lanka 2024 3rd ODI Prediction

India Tour of Sri Lanka 2024 3rd ODI Prediction

The stage is set for the final game of the India Tour of Sri Lanka here at R Premadasa Stadium, Colombo on August 7th. 

Hosts Sri Lanka who lost the T20I series 3-0 is now leading the ODI series 1-0 after completing the 2nd ODI. Knowing the conditions better than anyone else, they brought in an extra spinner and it worked wonders as they beat India by 32 runs. Earlier in the series, they made a stunning comeback to pull off a nerve-wracking tie. Batting, low order in particular did something extraordinary in both matches and to back it up, spinners nailed the show to pile more pressure on Indian batters. 

The pressure is on newly appointed coach Gautam Gambhir as India has yet to win an ODI under him. One of the best players of spin was exposed to the turning tracks, and as a result, they failed to chase 230 and 240. Needing one to win in the 1st ODI, they were the firm favourites to take a 1-0 lead with 2 wickets in hand, but the game swung away from them which resulted in a tie. When the rest of his fellow teammates are struggling to tackle spin, it’s skipper Rohit Sharma who stood strong in both matches and scored cracking half-centuries. They haven’t lost an ODI series in Sri Lanka in 27 years and are looking forward to maintaining the streak. 

SL vs IND 3rd ODI Predicted XI and Form Guide

Sri Lanka Predicted XI:

Pathum Nissanka, Avishka Fernando, Kusal Mendis (wk), Sadeera Samarawickrama, Charith Asalanka (c), Janith Liyanage, Dunith Wellalage, Kamindu Mendis, Akila Dananajaya, Jeffrey Vandersay, Asitha Fernando

Recent Form: Won, Tied, Lost, Won, Lost

Sri Lanka is on top of the moon at the moment having secured a 32-run win in the 2nd ODI to go 1-0 up in the series. The victory purely belongs to their low-order batters and spinners. From 136 for 6 they showcased determination and a high level of skill set to reach 240 for 9 at the end of 50 overs. Dunith Wellalage (39) and Kamindu Mendis (40) made the bulk of the scoring. 

They opted to go with a sole seamer and guess what it worked well as their spinners wreaked havoc to dismantle Men in Blue for 208. Jeffrey Vandersay, who replaced Mohamed Shiraz, recorded his career-best figures of 6 for 33 and was named the Player of the Match. The conditions forced them to field as many as five spinners and just to feel the variety, they included Asitha Fernando as a specialist fast bowler. 

They have dealt a huge blow as their premier all-rounder Wanindu Hasaranga ruled out of the series with a hamstring injury. When it comes to their batting, Dunith Wellalage powered them to excess scores of 200 in the 1st and 2nd ODIs and has collected 106 runs with the best score of 67*. Pathum Nissanka, the leading run-getter in ODIs this year scored a well-composed 56 runs in the 1st ODI and bagged a golden duck in the 2nd ODI. The rest including Kusal Mendis, Avishka Fernando, and skipper Charith Asalanka haven’t converted their starts into big ones. 

India Predicted XI:

India

Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Shivam Dube, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Arshdeep Singh

Recent Form: Lost, Tie, Won, Lost, Won

India’s middle-order batting was exposed against spin in the first two ODIs as they settled for a Tie and a loss. Now they can’t win the series and all they have is to avoid the series loss by leveling it 1-1. To seek balance they went with front-line all-rounders Shivam Dube, Axar Patel, and Washington Sundar but they lacked the firepower in the middle as the management decided to stick with KL Rahul to keep wickets instead of Rishabh Pant. 

The openers in particular Rohit Sharma have shown his supremacy, smashing back-to-back half-centuries and the only Indian to score 50 plus score in the series. Shubman Gill showed his intent but became the victim of a one-handed stunner from Kamindu Mendis for 35 in the 2nd ODI. Virat Kohli hasn’t arrived yet, only managing 38 runs but he is due for a big knock in the country he loves batting.

India’s middle-order batting mainstays Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul need to find their mojo back. The biggest positive factor is the performance of Axar Patel who scored 77 runs and picked up 3 wickets in the series. Fellow all-rounder Washington Sundar is their best bowler with 4 scalps but needs to prove his worth with the bat. 

With the series at stake, they might bring in additional batter in the middle order, with Rishabh Pant waiting in the wings, he could be the perfect pick but whom he replaces is a question. 

In the India vs Sri Lanka ODI bilateral series, India hasn’t lost since 1997 and it’s a perfect opportunity for Sri Lanka to regain the glory.

Venue and Weather Report for SL vs IND, 3rd ODI

The batters must master the art of playing spin on the surface which offers plenty of turn. It’s a cakewalk for the spinners who are in bright form and delivered well in the last 2 matches here at R Premadasa Stadium. The final game of India vs Sri Lanka ODI 2024 promises to be an exciting contest where scores in the range of 240-250 look competitive. 

India Tour of Sri Lanka 2024 3rd ODI Betting Tips

Dunith Wellalage:

Dunith Wellalage is a legend in the making for Sri Lanka, he is one of the main reasons behind Sri Lanka’s fightback in the ODI series. The 21-year-old southpaw scored pivotal runs coming down the order, collecting 106 runs from 2 matches with the best score of 67* while claiming 2 wickets with the ball at an economy of 5.33.

He is going to be the key player to watch out for Ind vs Sri Lanka 3rd ODI.

Rohit Sharma:

Rohit Sharma’s elegance is at his best in the ongoing India vs Sri Lanka ODI 2024 series, smashing 122 runs in 2 innings at an impressive strike rate of 134.06 with the best score of 64. When other Indian batters struggled to tackle spin, Rohit remained unaffected which shows the calibre of highest order. The Indian skipper is aiming for 3rd half-century in a row. 

Which is the best ODI match India vs Sri Lanka?

The best ODI game to date between India vs Sri Lanka is the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup Final at Wankhede where India secured a famous win in front of the packed stadium, ending their 28-year title drought. Mahela Jayawardene’s century was later overshadowed by epic innings from Gautam Gambhir (97) and MS Dhoni (91*).

Zimbabwe vs India 2024 T20 Series Winner Predictions

India tour of Zimbabwe 2024: Winner Predictions

The India tour of Zimbabwe 2024 5-match T20 series has turned out to be an exciting one, with 3 games being played and India leading the ongoing Zim vs Ind series 2-1. So, let us take an in-depth look at how the 3 matches went in the Zim vs Ind T20 series:

Zim vs Ind T20i Match 1:

India’s post-T20 World Cup celebrations were cut short when Zimbabwe defeated them in T20Is for the first time in 2024. After being reduced to 115 for 9, Zimbabwe’s bowlers came out strong, picking up wickets at regular intervals to dismiss India for 102 in 19.5 overs. 

This was, of course, India’s second-string T20I lineup; the first-choice squad is taking a week off following the World Cup final in Bridgetown. Tendai Chatara and Sikandar Raza excelled with the bowling, taking three wickets each as India folded in a fast, much to the joy of a sold-out Harare Sports Club.

India made debuts for Abhishek Sharma, Riyan Parag, and Dhruv Jurel. Gill did not hesitate to bowl first after winning the toss. Zimbabwe started brightly, but Ravi Bishnoi (4 for 13) and Washington Sundar (2 for 11) choreographed the collapse. At the midway point, it appeared to be an easy chase, but Zimbabwe’s bowlers had other plans. 

India lost four wickets in five overs, with Abhishek falling for a four-ball duck, Ruturaj Gaikwad for seven, Parag for three balls, and Rinku Singh for only two. And when Sikandar Raza cleaned up Shubman Gill for 31, everyone in Harare believed. India needed 16 runs from the penultimate over with one wicket in hand, but they expected to get over with Washington still intact. Chatara, on the other hand, bowled a nerveless 20th over, surrendering only two runs off four deliveries and taking Washington off the fifth, sparking frenzied celebrations in Harare. 

Zim vs Ind T20i Match 2:

India’s initial step into the next phase of T20 cricket started with a wobble last Saturday, but they recovered well enough to finish the weekend with a commanding victory led by their most modern player. Abhishek Sharma, who lit up IPL 2024 with his blazing, all-in heroics at the top of the order, gave international cricket its first glimpse of his potential on Sunday, blasting Zimbabwe with a 46-ball century, the joint third-fastest by an Indian batsman in Twenty20 Internationals.

That performance propelled India to 234 for 2 away from home, their second-highest T20I total, and left Zimbabwe required to pull off their most successful chase – having only ever taken down a target of more than 199. 

Zimbabwe’s innings continued to struggle after the powerplay, with Ravi Bishnoi appearing especially unhittable – Johnathan Campbell swept and reverse-sweeping in growing despair, failed to put bat to five consecutive balls from him and bottom-edged the sixth ball into his body.

Wessly Madhevere batted from the start of the pursuit until the 17th over, scoring 43 off 39 balls. Zimbabwe were eventually dismissed for 134 with eight balls remaining, with Mukesh and Avesh both taking three wickets and Bishnoi concluding with two for 11 from four overs. 

They didn’t come close, as India’s considerably better bowling attack took full advantage of a two-paced pitch while protecting a well-above-par score. The winning margin of exactly 100 runs properly summarized the contest.

Zim vs Ind T20i Match 3:

Despite Avesh Khan allowing 18 runs in the penultimate over, India achieved a critical win, taking the five-match series 2-1. Zimbabwe fell 23 runs short of the 183-run target, finishing on 159 for 6. 

India demonstrated excellent technique with both bat and ball. Shubman Gill and Ruturaj Gaikwad helped India reach 182, while Washington Sundar’s three wickets for 15 runs dominated the bowling attack. Avesh Khan provided two wickets. 

Zimbabwe battled early on, scoring 60 for 5 in the first 10 overs. However, a 77-run sixth-wicket stand between Dion Myers and Clive Madande helped them get back into the game. Myers achieved his first T20I fifty, going unbeaten on 65 from 49 balls. Zimbabwe’s misfields and missed catches boosted India’s impressive score.

Zimbabwe has to approach the remainder of the series carefully. They must concentrate on mastering the fundamentals; lost catches increased their losing margin in the second T20I. Furthermore, they must be realistic about their goals, realizing that younger players – picked over seasoned veterans like Sean Williams and Craig Ervine for this series – need time to develop.

Has Zimbabwe ever won against India?

India and Zimbabwe have played 11 T20 matches. Of these 11 games, India has won eight, while Zimbabwe has won three. Also, most recently, during the India tour of Zimbabwe 2024 5-match T20i series, Zim won their first game against India.

Zimbabwe vs India 4th T20i Match Prediction:

India will start as favourites in the fourth T20I against Zimbabwe on Saturday in Harare. India’s batsmen are world-class and a little too powerful for Zimbabwe. This is the primary difference between the two units. India’s bowlers are also getting plenty of support from the wicket. Look out for Yashasvi Jaiswal in the encounter. Based on the strengths and weaknesses of both sides, India has an 80% chance of winning the match and thus the series.

Venue and Pitch report:

The Harare Sports Club played host to 44 T20I matches, with the team that batted first winning 26 of them. However, in 24 matches, the captain who won the toss decided to chase. The chance of winning the game after winning the toss is 54.55%. The average first-inning score is 158, while the average second-inning score is 139. The highest overall score at the venue is India’s 234/2 versus Zimbabwe in the second T20I of the current series, while the lowest team total is Zimbabwe’s 90 against Afghanistan in 2022.

Zimbabwe vs India Key Players:

1 Rinku Singh: Rinku Singh is India’s latest finisher in T20 cricket. He has had an excellent start to his T20I career, scoring 405 runs in 14 innings at an impressive strike rate of 178.41. Rinku possesses a unique power to clear the ropes at command. Although Rinku has not got a lot to do in this series, he will be relishing the opportunity to showcase his talents in the upcoming match at the weekend.

2 Blessing Muzarabani: Blessing Muzarabani gave only 25 runs in his four overs in the third T20I, taking both the wickets of Gill and Gaikwad. He has been extremely restrictive throughout the series and will be looking to make a mark in the upcoming Zim vs Ind matchup.

Zimbabwe vs India series Winner Prediction:

We at GUGOBET predict India to win this ongoing 5-match series against Zimbabwe over the weekend, claiming wins in both, the 4th as well as the 5th T20i matches. Despite losing the first game, Ind has bounced back strongly and has better players compared to Zimbabwe. Also, despite this being India’s second-string lineup for the T20is, most of their players have immense experience in this particular format of the game. Hence, Team India is the clear favourite for this series.

A Look To T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8s Qualification Prediction

T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8s Qualifiied Team’s Captain

As the tournament entered the business end all eyes will be on the teams who will make it to the Super 8. Like other ICC events, this edition also brought a lot of surprise elements with big teams knocked out at the Group stages. Pakistan, New Zealand, and Sri Lanka are officially eliminated, and defending champions England who were on the verge of elimination got a great escape with a win over Namibia in their Group game.

The United States of America who got the rights to host the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 made an impression straight away that no one would have ever thought and secured a place in the Super 8s after upsetting Pakistan which went till the Super over. They finished 2nd in the Group A standings with 5 points. 

Afghanistan, which is called a giant killer, has already advanced to the T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8 with a game in hand. They started with a colossal 125-run win over Uganda and matched it up with an 84-run victory over New Zealand, the consistent team in the ICC tournaments. They extended their dream run and secured hat-tricks of wins, beating Papua New Guinea by 7 wickets. The underdogs’ tagline no longer holds them as they have already proved they can beat any side.

You can bet on the USA and Afghanistan to do well on our World Cup betting platform GUGOBET.

How many matches are in the Super 8 of the T20 World Cup 2024

ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8 matches will begin on Wednesday, June 19th, and will be played on Tuesday till June 25th. Eight teams will be divided into two groups each where the top two teams from each Group will make it to the Semi-Finals. A total of 12 matches will be played in the Super 8s. 

As of now(until June 15th) India, USA, Australia, Afghanistan, West Indies, and South Africa have qualified for the Super 8s. The remaining two spots are likely to be filled by Bangladesh and England.

India, Australia, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh will come in Group 1 whereas Group 2 will be formed by West Indies, South Africa, the USA, and England. North Sound, Gros Islet, Bridgetown, and Kingstown will host the entire leg of the Super 8.

Above mentioned information is helpful for World Cup betting on GUGOBET! 

How can India qualify for Super 8?

India became the first team from Group A to Qualify for the Super 8 of the T20 World Cup 2024 after winning their first 3 matches. Their fourth and final Group game against Canada was abandoned without a single ball bowled due to bad weather conditions as a result they topped the Group A standings with 7 points. 

India in their first Super 8 fixture will play against Afghanistan on June 20th at Bridgetown followed by the game against Bangladesh (almost confirmed) on June 22nd at North Sound and will conclude their Super 8 campaign against mighty Australians on June 24th at Gros Islet. 

Rohit Sharma and company who had played all their Group stage fixtures in the USA will find it difficult to acclimatise to the Caribbean conditions and will play against the sides who already know the conditions better. 

GUGOBET is the best destination to place your World Cup betting.

Can Pakistan qualify for Super 8 of the T20 World Cup 2024?

Pakistan who arrived in the USA with a lot of ambitions to take part in the T20 World Cup 2024 has to return empty-handed to their own country. They might finish 3rd in Group A only if they beat Ireland in their final game and a no result will also give them the same position. 

Who is likely to win the T20 World Cup 2024?

It’s always difficult to predict the winner of any ICC tournament, especially in this T20 World Cup 2024 with all the qualified teams for the Super 8 possessing an extraordinary level of skill set. On their day, they are always a threat to the opposition.

Going with team composition, experience, talent, current form, and ability to hold the pressure, we pick India to win the T20 World Cup 2024. Having played a lot under MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma has learned the art of handling the team well. His decision-making and field placements show how great a leader he is. Rohit Sharma was the main man behind in picking 3 spinners Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, and Yuzvendra Chahal for the T20 World Cup 2024 as Caribbean wickets are likely to be slow. 

Men in Blue played their first 3 matches in unfamiliar conditions at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, New York. They struggled to cope with the unevenness of the drop-in wickets and didn’t have the best of outings with the bat. World-class batter Virat Kohli’s rusty form tells us the story as he scored only 5 runs in 3 matches. Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav are the only batters to score half-centuries for the team in T20 World Cup 2024 however it is Rishabh Pant who tops the most run-scorers list with 96 runs. 

Arshdeep Singh and Hardik Pandya will share the honours with the ball, picking up 7 wickets each while Jasprit Bumrah is the kingpin with two Player of the Match awards. 

It’s worth a try to put your money on India to win the World Cup on our World Cup betting online platform. 

Who are the defending T20 World Cup Champions?

England are the defending T20 World Cup Champions who beat Pakistan in the summit clash by 5 wickets courtesy of Sam Curran’s 3-wicket haul and talismanic all-rounder Ben Stokes’ unbeaten 52* runs. Nobody would have expected them to come this well after they lost their Group fixture against Ireland. That’s what champions teams do as Jos Buttler and his men rose above all the odds to clinch the T20 World Cup title for the 2nd time. They previously won the competition back in 2010 under Paul Collingwood. 

Now things aren’t going smoothly for the Three Lions as they somehow managed to confirm their Super 8 qualification after beating Namibia but they need to thank Australia who beat Scotland.

T20 world cup Match Prediction: WI vs NZ 2024

T20 World Cup 2024 WI vs NZ Prediction

The West Indies will now play New Zealand in Group C after defeating Papua New Guinea and Uganda in their opening two matches. On June 13th, starting at 6 am, Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad will host the 26th match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. For West Indies to advance to the Super 8 stage, they must win.

Uganda was the target of a one-sided West Indies campaign. West Indies lost five wickets while scoring 173 runs in their opening batting innings. Andre Russell scored a rapid 30* off 17 balls, trailed by 44 runs scored by Johnson Charles. West Indies were defeated by 134 runs thanks to Akeal Hosein’s five wickets at 11 runs. West Indies moved to the top of Group C’s points standings with the back-to-back victories.

On the other hand, Afghanistan dealt New Zealand a thumping defeat in their opening ICC T20 World Cup 2024 match. After inviting Afghanistan to bat first, New Zealand restricted them to 159 for 6 wickets. Matt Henry and Trent Boult each claimed two wickets. In addition, after falling victim to traps set by Rashid Khan (four wickets) and Fazalhaq Farooqi (four wickets), New Zealand was all out for 75. Matt Henry and Glenn Phillips were the only two-digit scorers. New Zealand defeated the game by 84 runs.

With four points, West Indies presently leads Group C, while New Zealand is at the bottom of the standings with none. For New Zealand, which is about to be ousted from the ICC WT20 24 in the group stages, it will be a “do or die” situation. The Upcoming WI vs NZ match up will be crucial for the Kiwi side. This information will also be useful for World Cup betting on our cricket betting app.

WI vs NZ Predicted XI and Form Guide

West Indies Predicted XI:

Johnson Charles, Aaron Hosein, Alzarri Joseph, Gudakesh Motie, Andre Russell, Sherfane Rutherford, Romario Shepherd, Brandon King, Roston Chase, Nicholas Pooran (wk), and Rovman Powell (c).

Recent form: Won, Won

West Indies will be motivated by their previous two games victory. They will start the innings with Brandon King and Johnson Charles. With 612 runs at a strike rate of 145.36 in the last 20 games, King leads the West Indies in scoring. In the first two games, he has scored 78 runs. With just 13 runs in the first two games of the T20 World Cup 2024, Johnson Charles, who has 381 runs in the last 15 games, is not playing well. The West Indies batting lineup may suffer from King’s reduced strike rate and Charles’s bad play. 

Alzarri Joseph and Gudakesh Motie will accompany Akeal Hosein as the bowling attack leaders. Since 2023, Hosein has amassed 20 wickets at an economy of 8.20 in 20 games. With 23 wickets during the same era, Alzarri Joseph is the top wicket-taker for the West Indies. Gudakesh Motie, the best bowler in the West Indies with 15 wickets at an economy of 6.75 over the last nine games, will be the centre of attention.

About their batting, third place (in at 3) will go to Nicholas Pooran. In the first two games, Pooran has scored forty-nine runs. Since the beginning of the previous year, he has amassed 470 runs with a strike rate of 151.61 in 18 innings. Along with Andre Russell, Sherfane Rutherford and Skipper Rovman Powell will command the middle order. This year, Andre Russell has been outstanding. Thus far in this World Cup, the IPL champion has amassed 45 runs and taken three wickets. Since the previous year, he has had the greatest strike rate (191.85) among batters from the West Indies. On our online betting website, GUGOBET, you may use this information to help in your World Cup betting.

New Zealand Predicted XI:

Lockie Ferguson, Matt Henry, Trent Boult, Glenn Phillips, Mark Chapman, Mitchell Santner, Darryl Mitchell, Michael Bracewell, Finn Allen, Devon Conway (wk), Kane Williamson (c)

Recent Form: Lost.

The World Cup opener ended with an 84-run loss for New Zealand, leaving them wounded. It will be their sole opportunity to maintain their Super-8 aspirations. Devon Conway and Finn Allen will start the inning. After the beginning of 2023, Allen amassed 539 runs at the greatest strike rate of 163.33 among all New Zealand players, making him the country’s second-leading run scorer. During this time, he has struck the most sixes (43). 

However, he was out of luck in his most recent match against the West Indies. This is Conway’s lowest point of his life. With a strike percentage of 116.55, he has only scored 176 runs in the previous 12 games. However, he has an incredible record versus the West Indies. Conway’s strike rate versus New Zealand is 145.20 and he has amassed 212 runs in 5 innings. Considering that Rachin Ravindra has a higher strike rate than Conway, New Zealand ought to give it some thought. 

The bowling unit for New Zealand will be led by Trent Boult, Matt Henry, and Lockie Ferguson. In the opening match, the Kiwi Pacers claimed five of the six wickets. Ferguson’s average of 13.12 in 5 T20Is against the West Indies has yielded 8 wickets. The worst error made by New Zealand was not starting Ish Sodhi against Afghanistan. He ought to take precedence over Michael Bracewell. 

Since 2023, Sodhi has emerged as New Zealand’s second-highest wicket-taker. Santner will be the second spinner in action. With the lowest economy rate of all the Kiwi bowlers, the left-handed orthodox has claimed 22 wickets in the last 20 innings. With our online betting platform, GUGOBET, this information will help you with your World Cup betting.

WI vs NZ ICC T20 World Cup 2024 match betting tips

Andre Russell: 

In the upcoming WI vs NZ matchup, Rusell is the most coveted player in this game. As an All-Rounder he possesses the ability to bat as well as bowl. He will be a crucial factor in this game as the Kiwis will go all out on the West Indies. Russell’s monstrous power hitting will come into play at this stadium, as it is a batting haven. The Kiwi bowlers will have to watch out for Russell’s death-over hitting. This information will be useful for World Cup betting on our cricket betting app.

WI vs NZ ICC T20 World Cup 2024 match winner prediction

In their first two World Cup matches, West Indies won twice. However, these triumphs have been achieved against the tournament’s underdogs. On the opposite side, they will have to contend with giants this time. Despite the West Indies’ advantage in home conditions, New Zealand has an excellent record in Twenty20 Internationals versus the West Indies. But given their recent impressive home results, our experts believe the West Indies will prevail in this match.

Pakistan vs New Zealand – T20I Series Winner Prediction

The season of T20 cricket is running in full flow as we started the proceedings with the Women’s Premier League, then shifted our focus to the most-awaited Indian Premier League. Now it is time for some gruelling international cricket as Pakistan is all set to host New Zealand for a five-match Pak vs. NZ T20I series starting on Thursday, April 18, 2024.

The series is quite important for both teams, as even after being quality teams, they last laid their hands on an ICC trophy a long time ago now. And since the ICC T20I World Cup 2024 is less than 50 days away from us, this Pakistan vs. New Zealand series would work as an opportunity for both squads to be best prepared for another chance to win an ICC trophy.

Due to a few New Zealand players playing in the IPL currently, Pakistan start as favourites, having the home advantage as well, but from our cricket-viewing experience of the past 10–12 years, we have learned that you never rule anyone out on a cricket ground, and if it is a team like New Zealand that never stops fighting, you should not make the mistake of giving the opponent an upper hand.

For Pakistan, these five matches will work as a platform to find their perfect playing 11 and finalize their bowling attack, which is their strength. For New Zealand, it will be more of a series where they try out new young and talented players and see if they can find something X-factor to include in their World Cup plans.

Below, we have done a complete analysis of both squads for the forthcoming Pak vs. NZ T20I series and listed the complete schedule for the series. We have also made our Pak vs. NZ match prediction for the five matches.

Pak vs NZ T20I 2024 – Fixtures

The fixtures for the upcoming Pak vs. NZ T20I five-match series are listed below. The series will begin on Thursday, April 18, 2024, and will conclude on Saturday, April 27, 2024. The matches will be played in Rawalpindi and Lahore, where the pitch usually offers nothing for the bowlers and is as flat as a road. Have a look at the schedule below and brace yourselves to place winning bets on the GUGOBET online betting platform for the Pakistan vs. New Zealand series.

Match Date Time Venue
1st T20I April 18, 2024 7:30 p.m. IST Rawalpindi
2nd T20I April 20, 2024 7:30 p.m. IST Rawalpindi
3rd T20I April 21, 2024 7:30 p.m. IST Rawalpindi
4th T20I April 25, 2024 7:30 p.m. IST Lahore
5th T20I April 27, 2024 7:30 p.m. IST Lahore 

Pak vs NZ T20I 2024 – Squads and Playing 11s

After trying out different options, Babar Azam is back at the helm of this Pakistan team, leading the charge once again as the team’s captain. Mohammad Amir is another face who will be playing international cricket after a long time, and it will be interesting to see how he fares after his long break because if he gets going, he can be a real threat to batters.

Haris Rauf has not been included in the squad for this series, but we expect him to come back to the team for the World Cup. Saim Ayub is an interesting name on the Pakistan roster, and we think he will be Pakistan’s x-factor player in the series.

Pakistan’s squad for the upcoming five-match Pak vs. NZ series:

Babar Azam (c), Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Azam Khan, Iftikhar Ahmed, Irfan Khan, Saim Ayub, Usman Khan, Imad Wasim, Shadab Khan, Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Amir, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Zaman Khan, Abrar Ahmed, Naseem Shah, and Usama Mir

Pakistan’s playing 11 for the upcoming five-match Pakistan vs. New Zealand series:

Babar Azam (c), Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Saim Ayub, Fakhar Zaman, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, Shadab Khan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Naseem Shah, Abbas Afridi, and Mohammad Amir

As far as the Black Caps are concerned, their regular captain Tim Southee is unavailable, and hence, Michael Bracewell would be heading a completely new-faced New Zealand team in this Pak vs. NZ series. Finn Allen and Adam Milne were ruled out at the last minute due to injuries from the series.

Tim Seifert, James Neesham, Mark Chapman, and Ish Sodhi are the only experienced players on the roster apart from the captain, Bracewell. Jacob Duffy and Ben Sears are the pacers to look forward to, whereas Josh Clarkson and Tim Robinson are two young batters who can turn the tide in New Zealand’s favour in this series.

New Zealand’s squad for the upcoming five-match Pak vs. NZ series:

Tim Seifert (wk), Tom Blundell, Michael Bracewell, Mark Chapman, Josh Clarkson, Dean Foxcroft, Cole McConchie, James Neesham, Jacob Duffy, Ben Lister, William O’Rourke, Ben Sears, Ish Sodhi, Tim Robinson, and Zakary Foulkes

New Zealand’s playing 11 for the upcoming five-match Pakistan vs. New Zealand series:

Tim Robinson, Tim Seifert (wk), Josh Clarkson, Michael Bracewell (c), Mark Chapman, James Neesham, Dean Foxcroft, Ish Sodhi, Ben Sears, Jacob Duffy, and William O’Rourke

Pak vs NZ T20I 2024 – Players to watch out for

In the upcoming series, we expect Saim Ayub, the young gun, to be the batter to watch out for from the Pakistan team. Ayub has been in very good form lately, and we think he will score a bunch of runs for Pakistan in this series. He will be batting at number 3 in the series, and if he gets off to a good start, it will be a task for the NZ bowlers to send him back into the hut.

As far as bowling is concerned, Naseem Shah is one bowler we think will have a great series. Naseem is a beautiful new-ball bowler and an even better death bowler. He is coming back into the team after an injury, but we are sure he will be running in full steam to get the white leather talk with batters.

As for the New Zealand team, Tim Seifert is going to be the batter everyone looks forward to. Seifert is an exceptional batting talent who has been around the team for a while but will be given a long rope this time around for all five matches and could prove to be the game-changer for his team.

In the absence of all the senior bowlers, all the onus will be on New Zealand’s marquee leg-spinner, Ish Sodhi. Sodhi is a fantastic spin bowler who takes conditions out of the play with his incredible skills, and according to our Pak vs. NZ match predictions, he will be the bowler to watch out for from the visitors’ camp.

How many times have New Zealand beaten Pakistan?

As far as the head-to-head is concerned, it is surprisingly dominated by Pakistan. Out of the 39 Pakistan vs. New Zealand T20I matches between the two nations, Pakistan has won 21 times, whereas New Zealand has been able to beat them only 17 times. The record may be dominated by Pakistan because New Zealand has never been a good T20i side.

But times have changed, and with a changed squad as well, who knows? New Zealand put out a surprising performance and levelled this head-to-head record after the conclusion of this series. The most recent T20I series between Pakistan and New Zealand was won by New Zealand by a margin of 4-1, and the scoreline might just repeat itself this time around.

Pak vs NZ Match Prediction – Who will win the series?

It is quite clear even before the series begins that it is going to be a battle between the Pakistan bowlers and the New Zealand batters. Since the pitches are going to be batting-friendly, we will inevitably see a lot of sixes being hit in the series. But the real challenge would be how the New Zealand batters take on this Pakistan bowling lineup in their backyard.

According to our experts and their Pak vs. NZ match predictions, the scoreline is going to be in New Zealand’s favour with a margin of 3-2. There is no doubt regarding the fact that this is going to be a competitive series, with both teams giving more than their 100% to get the better of their opponents.
