Pre Match Report - : for England team, this tour hasn't been really good yet considering the test match series, T20, and the first ODI result.

All the English players were in half form and failed to help their team winning important matches wherein Indian players are playing good cricket except KL Rahul who gained his form back in the last one day match and the highlight of the series are the indian debutants, their high rank contributions are winning matches for the team.

Team News - Just before a day, Eoin Morgan has been ruled out from the ODI series due to injury and Jos Butler will lead the England side in 2nd and 3rd match, the updates on Sam Billings are still pending. Further, Dawid Malan has been added in the squad and most probably Liam Livingstone will also make his debut in place of Billings.

On the other hand, Shreyas Iyer is not part of the team anymore due to the shoulder injury and Suryakumar Yadav or Rishabh Pant might replace him in the squad. Moreover, Yuzvendra Chahal can replace Kuldeep Yadav in the next match.

POST MATCH ANALYSIS - : India went 1-0 in the 3-match ODI series with players giving a team performance with bat and ball. Especially, Shikhar Dhawan outclassed the opposition by gaining his form back in the very 1st ODI and played an excellent inning of 98 runs with 11 fours and 2 sixes in 106 balls. Most importantly he managed to produce an opening partnership of 64 runs with Rohit Sharma for the first wicket and then shared a 100+ run stand with Virat Kohli. He set a platform for middle order batsmen as Rahul smashed 62 runs in 43 balls and debutant Krunal Pandya made a contribution of 58 runs in just 31 balls. With these high-class performances, India managed to post a target of 317.

England opening pair of Bairstow and Roy came on to crease with an attacking mode, especially Bairstow was absolutely looking in sublime touch against all the Indian bowlers until another Indian debutant Prasidh Krishna removed Roy on 46, then Stokes who was promoted by skipper to play at first down, gave his wicket to Krishna. In the process, England top batsmen Jonny Bairstow also threw his wicket to Shardul Thakur at the score of 94, followed by Morgan and Butler. English team lost their 5 wickets in just a span of 42 runs and unfortunately from there on, they failed to make a comeback in the match. Krishna was star bowler for India with 4 wickets and Shardul once again showed his bowling skills and grabbed 3 big wickets.

"We don't want to lose the series" - Ben Stokes, England Allrounder.

And, when it comes to series decider Indian team has a brilliant record of 8 win from 9 matches they played in T20I. Now, this would be a tough one for the No. 1 T20 side, England to steal the series from the hands of Virat and his team as they proved that they can win the match even after losing the toss and bat first.

Team News :- Ishan Kishan might replace KL Rahul despite the trust of Virat on him and T Natarajan or Rahul Tewatia can earn the place in the side instead of Washington Sundar otherwise all will remain same.

England might bring one change in place of Sam Curran, the batting all rounder Moen Ali could join the force and most probably Morgan will stick to Dawid Malan as he's also not performing well and trying to find his form.

"I was not disappointed with my dismissal, few things not in my control"- Suryakumar Yadav

The Indian T20 debutant Suryakumar Yadav played a 57-run knock yesterday against England in 4th T20 match. He smashed 6 boundaries and 3 maximums in his inning including first-ball six against Jofra Archer. The crucial inning from Yadav on his dream debut helped India level the series 2-2. The debutant became the 5th Indian batsmen after Rahane, Kishan, Rohit and Uthappa, to score a half century on T20 debut. His 57-run knock followed by a brilliant performance from Indian bowlers helped India win the match by 8 runs. For India, It was Shardul Thakur who took 3 wickets in 4 overs for 42 runs and restricted England to 177.

Further, we at WSM Sports hope that India will fight back in the final, which will be played on 20th March and win the T20I series.

All the cricket fans are ready to watch the 4th T20I between India and England which is do or die match for the Indian team to save the series as England is already ahead by 2-1.

India really needs to understand that the bowlers are most important key to success as England is playing with the 6 bowling options from the starting of the series and on the other hand we are stick to the formula of 5 bowlers only (including Hardik Pandya) which really backfired.

Team News - : Indian team bench is really strong they must face difficulty to adjust and appoint the best playing 11 especially after the performance of Ishan Kishan, they are lacking from the good fast bowling like Bumrah and Shami. Hence, there might be a chance for Deepak Chahar today to play a match instead of Shardul Thakur to bring more pace and swing in the powerplay overs with Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Most probably, they will stick to KL Rahul.

England team is looking strong despite the struggle of Dawid Malan and we are not expecting any change in Morgan's playing 11.

POST MATCH ANALYSIS - : England team won by 8 wickets in the 3rd T20I against India, all that happened with the help of England fast bowlers and the one sided match winning performance of Jos The Boss, Butler smashed 4 sixes and 5 fours in his inning of 83 runs in 52 balls and had a partnership of 77 runs along with Johnny Bairstow who scored 40 runs in 28 balls.

Earlier, the powerplay overs went totally flop for india because of Wood and Jordan's fast bowling and india managed to board only 24 runs with the loss of 3 wickets (Rohit, Rahul, and Kishan) then Pant lost his wicket due to the bad call of run by Virat Kohli. At last, Kohli played another fantastic inning of 77 runs in 46 balls but that wasn't really enough to defend against England. The powerful inning from Jos Butler helped England lead in the 5 T20I series by 2-1.

PRE-MATCH ANALYSIS:- Its time for the 3rd T20I between India and England, there will be red soil pitch instead of black which means both the captains are now expecting more turn. India is back on their way to winning matches and with the inclusion of young bloods Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav, they are looking more dangerous and attacking.

Team News - all eyes are on KL Rahul (if he gets a chance again, because considering the current form he might get replaced by Rohit Sharma). Indian skipper is already in touch with ABD Villiers and taking tips on his batting which results successful.

England team need to get rid from the disease of slower deliveries which has had been produced by Shardul, Hardik and all other bowlers in previous match and they desperately loose their wickets in the greed of playing big shots. They need to be more careful now.

We at WSM believe that there might be two changes in England team in place of Tom Curran and Chris Jordan, Mark Wood and Moen Ali could enter in playing 11.

In the yesterday's match of West Indies and Sri Lanka, Darren Bravo emerged as a player of the match with 102 runs while chasing the target of 275 in 50 overs and outclassed all other batsmans with the shadow of Brian Lara. The centurion smashed 4 sixes and 5 fours in his inning, he had a partnership of 109 runs for 3rd wicket with Mr. consistent Shai Hope who scored 64 runs in 72 balls. WI skipper Kieron Pollard also contributed with a handy performance of 53 runs in just 42 balls and took the match away from Sri Lanka. WI whitewashed SL in the ODI Series by 3-0.

14/03/2021

POST MATCH ANALYSIS -: Jason Roy played another 40+ knock but the similarity was that he gave his wicket once again to Washington Sundar. Sundar took wicket of dangerous looking Bairstow as well, then Morgan, Malan, Stokes failed to accelerate the inning. Shardul Thakur was good with slower deliveries and he succeeded in taking wickets of Morgan and Stokes.

KL Rahul was still struggling in finding his form and departed for duck. Ishan Kishan showed a modicum of confidence in himself as he smashed 56 runs in just 32 balls on his dream debut. Then, the highlight of the day was the form of King Kohli. He became the first batsman in the world to score 3000 runs in T20 Internationals with his 73 runs in just 49 balls. Therefore, the chase master Kohli helped his team to equal the series by 1-1.

PRE-MATCH REPORT-: No. 1 side of T20 cricket is once again ready to dominate Indian Team in their second T20I as well. Although, Virat Kohli admitted that they were desperate to play the shots early without even understanding the pitch. Both teams had a different perspective to play the match which lights up the competition more ahead. Now the pitch wouldn't be the same as there will be second pitch to use today.

England team might not bring any change except Sam Curran who just delivered 2 overs and can be replaced by Moen Ali for the second spin option considering the black soil of the pitch. For the Indian Team, all the critics are in support to bring Rohit Sharma back in the playing 11 instead of Shikhar Dhawan but as per the statement given by Kohli during the toss of last T20, they might continue with the same opening pair, the changes can be made in the bowling department. We at WSM Sports believe, this is still a mystery like the current form of Virat Kohli in cricket.

The second ODI between Sri Lanka and West Indies was absolute entertainment for the cricket fans. After winning the toss, West Indies opted to field first and that decision was going well until the partnership of 100 runs between Gunathilaka and Chandimal as they scored 96 and 71 respectively. With the handful inning of 47 runs from Hasaranga helped Sri Lanka to set a target of 274 runs for WI.

The target of 274 didn't seem difficult to chase because of the Lewis and Hope as they had a first wicket partnership of 192 runs in 37.2 overs. Evin Lewis scored 103 runs and got his 4th ODI ton. He struck 8 boundaries and 4 sixes in his 103. Shai Hope followed up his century in the series opener with a score of 84.

The match turned interestingly when West Indies lost 5 wickets and entered into the final 3 overs. It was the last over and 9 runs were required from 6 balls. Nicholas Pooran was on the crease with Jason Holder who just set his foot in. Pooran cleverly kept strike to himself and smashed 2 fours in a row on the second and third delivery of Nuwan Pradeep and won the match on the very next ball by taking single. With this victory, West Indies recorded their highest successful ODI run chase against Sri Lanka and took 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
