T20 World Cup: New Zealand outclass Australia by 89 runs
In the first match of the Super 12s of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, New Zealand beat the current champions and hosts Australia by 89 runs on Saturday in Sydney.
Devon Conway made an unbeaten 92 for the Kiwis and their bowlers also played exceptionally well to seal the match.
New Zealand were asked to bat first after they lost the toss. Conway and Fin Allen proved they had no problem batting first— they posted 56 runs in the opening stand in only four overs. They smashed the Australian bowlers all around the ground in Sydney.
New Zealand never looked back from this blistering start. Allen was the first batter to get dismissed by the Australian pacer Josh Hazlewood for 42 off just 16 balls.
But Conway was firm at the other end of the wicket and continued to demolish the Australian bowling line. He batted until the end of the innings and smashed wonderful shots.

Conway ended on 92 off just 58 deliveries with seven fours and two sixes. He guided New Zealand to a massive total of 203 for three wickets.
In reply, the hosts were expected to respond well but surprisingly they could not do that on a surface that they know better than any participating team. They were completely outclassed by the Blackcaps.
The Australian batting line was broken down like a pack of cards. Glenn Maxwell and Pat Cummins were the only batters for the hosts to have past the 20-run mark. Veteran pacer Tim Southee and spinner Mitchell Santner scalped three wickets each for New Zealand. Australia, eventually, tumbled to 111 in 17.1 overs and lost the match by a massive margin of 89 runs.
T20 World Cup 2022: Bangladesh’s past record with Super 12 opponents
All five of Bangladesh’s opponents have been confirmed as they will begin their Super 12 round campaign with a match against the Netherlands on October 24 in Hobart. Little is expected from the Tigers given their recent international performances. Let's take a look at Bangladesh's records against the teams they will face in the T20 World Cup 2022 group stage.
Bangladesh's head-to-head record and expected outcomes against its Super 12s opponents
The Bangladesh team will play their first game against the Dutch national side on Monday (October 24). After that, they will take on South Africa, Zimbabwe, India, and Pakistan, respectively. Bangladesh have a realistic chance of reaching the semi-finals if they can win at least three matches. But can the Tigers put up a fighting display given their recent performances in the T20 format? Let’s take a glance at Bangladesh's T20I records over their opponents in the Super 12s.

Bangladesh vs Netherlands
Match details: October 24 | Venue: Bellerive Oval | Time: 10 a.m. (BST)The Tigers will face a less-strong Dutch side in their Twenty20 World Cup opener, which could be a blessing in disguise to find momentum. This is the fixture that everyone expects Bangladesh to win. So, the team Tigers can consider themselves favourites for the contest but shouldn’t undermine their opposition. The Netherlands finished second in their group in the first round, winning two and losing to Sri Lanka.
H2H Record: Bangladesh have faced the Netherlands three times and hold a 2-1 head-to-head record. The Tigers won the last meeting between the two sides in the 2016 World T20.
Bangladesh vs South Africa
Match details: October 27 | Venue: Sydney Cricket Ground | Time: 9 a.m. (BST)Bangladesh's next fixture would be against a strong South Africa team at the famous Sydney Cricket Ground. This would be one of the toughest matches for the Tigers as the Proteas players are more equipped for the Australian conditions. Bangladesh's team management has to chalk out an effective strategy which could potentially put the opposition under strain. However, South Africa are the overwhelming favourite for the contest.
H2H Record: Bangladesh have played seven T20Is against South Africa and have lost all of them. South Africa won by 6 wickets in the most recent meeting between the two sides in the 2021 ICC Twenty20 World Cup.
Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe
Match details: October 30 | Venue: The Gabba | Time: 9 a.m. (BST)The Bangladesh team will target Zimbabwe in their third fixture of the tournament to stay in contention for a top two finish in the points table. Despite losing a bilateral series 2-1 against Zimbabwe last July, Bangladesh will remain the favourite in this fixture. Players on both sides know each other very well, and it will be a fascinating contest to watch.
H2H Record: Bangladesh have led the head-to-head battle against Zimbabwe with 12 wins in 19 meetings. Zimbabwe, on the other hand, has seven wins and won the last contest between the two sides in August by 10 runs.

Bangladesh vs India
Match details: November 2 | Venue: Adelaide Oval | Time: 2 p.m. (BST)Beating India will be a hard task for Bangladesh, especially in the ICC events. Though Bangladesh had a famous victory over the Indian side in the 2007 World Cup, that was in the ODI format. India will be well aware that Bangladesh can pose a real threat and will not take the contest lightly. The Tigers will need a bit of luck to overcome India in this fixture.
H2H Record: Bangladesh have only one win over India in the T20 format, which came in a bilateral series in 2019. Overall, India have 10 wins against Bangladesh in 11 meetings.
Bangladesh vs Pakistan
Match details: November 6 | Venue: Adelaide Oval | Time: 10 a.m. (BST)Bangladesh’s final Super 12 Round fixture would be against Pakistan in Adelaide. This fixture could potentially be a do-or-die contest for both the teams. Therefore, this could be a well-contested match to watch. Pakistan will start as favourites, but Bangladesh have a better chance of winning this match than the other two big opponents in the group.
H2H Record: Pakistan have 15 T20I victories in 17 matches against Bangladesh, including the most recent one in New Zealand. On the other hand, the Tigers have only had two triumphs over the Men in Green.

Bottom Line
Bangladesh have a realistic possibility of winning the matches against the Netherlands and Zimbabwe given the strength of their squads and their better records against them. The Tigers can defeat strong opponents like India, Pakistan, and South Africa, but luck has to be on their side in addition to their best efforts during these matches. The Bangladeshi team could advance to the semifinals of the T20 World Cup 2022 if they win at least three games, which is not impossible.
T20 World Cup 2022: Favourites to make it to the semifinals
Who will play with whom in the Super 12 Round has been revealed after the confirmation of four qualified teams from the first round on Friday. The Super 12s is set to start on October 22 with a match between Australia and New Zealand in Sydney. Let’s have a look at which teams have a strong possibility of reaching the semifinals of the T20 World Cup 2022.
Who will play with whom in the Super 12s?
There are two groups in the Super 12 Round, each containing six teams. The top teams in the points table of each group will secure a place in the semifinals. In Group 1, Australia, New Zealand, England, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, and Ireland will compete for the top two spots in the points table. On the other hand, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, South Africa, the Netherlands, and Zimbabwe will take on each other in Group 2 in the quest for a semi-final berth.

Which teams are the early favourites to reach the semifinals?
Seven teams are realistically in the race for a semi-final spot in the T20 World Cup 2022 and have the squads to fight for it. Here are the teams that can qualify for the semi-finals.
Group 1
Sri Lanka advanced to Group 1 after finishing first in Group A in the first round. The reigning Asia Cup 2022 champions will try to emulate their recent success in the Super 12 round. However, it won’t be easy for the Lankan side as Australia, England, and New Zealand are the top three teams in this group. Afghanistan and Ireland are the other two teams in Group 1 and are unlikely to make it to the semifinals as their main target would be to finish as high as possible in the points standings.
Australia
The reigning World Cup champions, Australia, are the hot favourites in the eighth edition of the competition. Australia are currently the sixth T20I ranked team, but they are way better than their current rankings. The Aaron Finch-led team has what it takes to win a big event. They have the right balance in the squad and have had decent momentum in recent series. The Australian side has 9 wins in 17 outings in 2022. The hosts will start their campaign against New Zealand on October 22.
New Zealand
The New Zealand team was the runner-up in the 2021 ICC Twenty20 World Cup, and they will have a better chance of winning the competition this year due to the familiar conditions. The Kiwi side is led by charismatic captain Kane Williamson, who is back in form. Besides, the team has some seriously talented all-rounders who are well capable of taking a game away from the opposition. The world’s fifth-ranked team has a strong chance of reaching the semi-finals and their 12 wins out of 15 this year have indicated that they are on the right momentum. The New Zealand team will play their opening game against arch-rivals Australia on October 22.
England
The Jos Buttler-led English T20I team will be one of the major teams to watch in this competition. England will try to win their second trophy of the competition after disappointingly failing to advance to the final last year. They have a strong batting unit from top to middle-order and also have a strong bowling unit to do the job for them. What England need is consistency, especially when it matters the most. The world’s no.2 team, England, have 10 wins in 21 outings this year and they should find a place in the semi-finals, given their overall squad strength. The English side will start their campaign against Afghanistan on October 22.
Sri Lanka
The Lankan team will be an outsider in the contest for a place in the semi-finals. The Sri Lankan side has some promising young talents to do the job in the crucial moments. Success in the 2022 Asia Cup would be their biggest inspiration. But can they repeat the same performances in the ICC T20 World Cup 2022? That would be a big question. Sri Lanka have 9 victories in 20 matches this year so far. The Lankan side will play their first Super 12 Round fixture against Ireland on October 23.

Group 2
The West Indies were big favourites to move into Group 2 of the Super 12s, but their journey to this year’s event ended with an early exit from the first round. Therefore, only three teams will understandably fight for a place in the knockout round from Group B and they are India, Pakistan, and South Africa. The other participating teams in this group are Bangladesh, the Netherlands, and Zimbabwe, who will try to overcome each other in this round.
India
The world's number one ranked team, India, are one of the favourites in the tournament. The Rohit Sharma-led Indian team has been on a good run in the T20 format this year, winning 23 of 32 games. Their only disappointment this year was failing to qualify for the Asia Cup 2022 final in September. India have multiple match-winners to stand out for the side. But they will surely miss one of their main weapons in bowling, Jasprit Bumrah, in the tournament. India should advance to the last four with this squad, but if they don't, that would be a huge blow. India will play their first match against arch-rivals Pakistan on October 23.
Pakistan
Pakistan have improved a lot under Babar Azam's captaincy and are currently the world's No.3 ranked team. But Pakistan's team relies heavily on their two openers in batting and have lacked depth in the middle-order. However, their bowling line-up is one of the best in the world and will have to shoulder major responsibility in winning games. With 10 wins in 19 games, Pakistan's team is not in their best of form at the moment but are a strong candidate to move to the semi-finals. Pakistan’s opening match will be on October 23 against India.
South Africa
The Proteas national side has improved over the last one year and they have promised to give a strong fight against India and Pakistan in their quest for a semi-final berth. The South African side’s ICC T20I ranking has improved thanks to their consistent performances over the big opposition. The team has some world-class all-rounders who have the ability to win games on their own. The Proteas team has 7 victories in 13 outings this year and will definitely take part in the 2022 Twenty20 World Cup with the intention of winning it. South Africa will play their first match against Zimbabwe on October 24.
Read: T20 World Cup 2022: Bangladesh to face Netherlands on Oct 24
Verdict
The teams who usually play on the fast and bouncy wickets are the strong favourites for the T20 World Cup 2022. In that sense, Australia, New Zealand, England, and South Africa have an advantage over the Asian teams, India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. However, momentum is key in any big event. The team that can ignite at the right time has the best chance of advancing to the semifinals.

T20 World Cup: Zimbabwe knock out Scotland to book place in Super 12s
Zimbabwe claimed the final spot in the Super 12s stage of the ongoing T20 World Cup, beating Scotland by five wickets in Hobart on Friday.
Scotland won the toss and their captain Richie Berrington opted to bat first. But the decision didn't turn out well as they failed to post a big total on the board against an opponent who have been doing well for a while now.
Scotland lost quick wickets that put pressure on this early in the match. George Munsey, the opener, hit a fifty but others in the top-order failed to deliver well, and thus they only managed to score 132 for six in 20 overs.
Zimbabwean pacer Tendai Chatara bowled superbly to take two wickets conceding only 14 runs in four overs. Sikandar Raza, who made it a habit to perform consistently, also bowled well to take one wicket conceding 20 runs in four overs.
In reply, Zimbabwe had a shaky start. They lost Regis Chakabva and Wesley Madhevere in the first two overs. Sean Williams also fell early scoring seven runs.
But there were Craig Ervine, the Zimbabwean captain, and Raza who helped Zimbabwe to come out of this early damage and guided the team to a victory in an all-crucial match.
Ervine posted 58 off 54 while Raza hit 40 off just 23 balls. Both of them were sent back with Zimbabwe needing only a few runs to seal the match.
Josh Davey bagged two wickets for the Scots, but that was not enough for them to turn the match their way.
With this one, Zimbabwe joined Bangladesh, Netherlands, South Africa India and Pakistan in Group 2 in the Super 12s of the World Cup. In their first match in the Super 12s, Zimbabwe will take on South Africa on October 24 in Hobart.
Ronaldo controversy overshadows United's victory over Spurs
Cristiano Ronaldo refused to come on as a substitute for Manchester United in its 2-0 win over Tottenham in the Premier League, United manager Erik ten Hag said Friday.
Ronaldo headed to the locker room before the final whistle of Wednesday’s game at Old Trafford in a show of dissent and has since been omitted from United’s squad for the trip to play Chelsea on Saturday.
Ten Hag held talks with Ronaldo on Friday and said the Portugal striker “remains an important part of the squad.”
However, Ten Hag said Ronaldo had to be disciplined for the sake of the culture within the team, having already been critical of the player and some of his teammates for leaving a preseason friendly against Rayo Vallecano early in July.
“I have to set standards and values, and control them,” Ten Hag said.
“I set a warning at the start of the season, and the next time there has to be consequences. Otherwise when you are living together, when you are playing together — and football is a team sport — you have to fulfill certain standards and I have to control it.”
The 37-year-old Ronaldo took to social media late Thursday to explain his behavior in the Tottenham game.
“I’ve always tried to set the example myself for the youngsters that grew in all the teams that I’ve represented,” Ronaldo wrote on Instagram. “Unfortunately that’s not always possible and sometimes the heat of the moment (gets) the best of us.”
Ronaldo trained away from the first team on Friday.
Ireland ousts 2-time champion West Indies at T20 World Cup
Ireland knocked the two-time champion West Indies out of the Twenty20 World Cup in the preliminary stage and earned a spot in the Super 12s with a 9-wicket upset victory on Friday.
Opener Paul Stirling scored 66 from 48 balls to guide Ireland to 150-1 in reply to West Indies’ total of 146-5, reaching the target with 15 balls to spare.
Stirling shared a 73-run opening stand with skipper Andy Balbirnie (37) to get the chase away to a positive start and then combined in an unbroken partnership of 77 with Lorcan Tucker, who capped an unbeaten 45 by hitting the winning boundary.
West Indies skipper Nicholas Pooran won the toss and elected to bat at Hobart but his lineup didn't make the most of the ideal conditions, with Brandon King's 62 from 48 balls the only standout innings. It was a disappointing tournament for the West Indies, which opened with an upset loss to Scotland.
Spinner Gareth Delany took career-best T20 international figures of 3-16 in a tight, economical spell that frustrated the big-hitting West Indies batters.
“It's a dream come true. As a group we're ecstatic," Delany said. “Incredible day for us. To get over the line today, in the fashion that we did, is amazing."
All four teams in Group B were still in contention to advance with one win and one loss apiece going into the last day of the first round. Zimbabwe was playing Scotland in the later game in another winner-takes-all contest.
Former champion Sri Lanka and Netherlands finished first and second in Group A to advance to the Super 12 round, where they'll join the top eight ranked teams.
