Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self

The second ODI between Papua New Guinea and the United States of America will take place shortly thereafter. There is no cricket match to enjoy today so I will enjoy this match. Papua New Guinea will perform on the group stage of the upcoming T20 World Cup. So I'm interested in watching them play this match.

Both teams are very weak. If we look at the ICC ODI rankings, we can see that the United States of America is ranked 19th in the rankings, and Papua New Guinea is ranked 20th. However, USA collected 44 runs in 14 overs and they lost 3 wickets. Since both teams are very weak, it is not possible to say that the match will be won. At any time, anything can happen.

@CryptoBuds I wasn’t even aware that USA had a team for cricket, and now I’m actually planning to see this match as I want to see how they’re playing. Lastly USA have scored 75 runs and have lost 4 wickets, hence if they score 250 runs then I feel that they’ll be able to defend it.

I learned last month that the USA has a cricket team. I was not aware of this team before. However, I still have to watch today's match. With the help of Jaskaran Malhtra's 173 runs, USA collected 271 runs. Jaskaran has scored 173 runs off just 124 balls. He hit 6 over-boundary in the last over. A new record for him. He has hit 16 sixes in the entire match. Extremely impressive batting.

Papua New Guinea scored only 62 runs in 19.2 overs. They have already lost 4 wickets. Although I did not think they could win by batting for 272 runs. Even then, if Papua New Guinea can score 200 runs, I think it will be a good collection for them. But now looking at their batting I think they will lose all their wickets in 130-140.
