Pakistan will get a 'blank check' if they lose to India in the World Cup

Pakistan defeated India in the final of the 2016 ICC Champions Trophy to win the title. Pakistan has fond memories of losing to India only in the Champions Trophy among ICC tournaments. Besides, they have never beaten India in ODIs or T20 World Cups.

Pakistan's journey will start with the match against India in the upcoming T20 World Cup. The two eternal rivals will face each other in their first match of the World Cup on October 24. The Pakistan cricket team will get a blank check if they can beat India for the first time in this match in the World Cup.

The new chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), Ramiz Raja, has given the information himself. PCB investors have assured him about this. He also said that the Pakistan team could not rely on ICC funding alone.

"50 percent of the PCB is funded by the ICC," he said. And 90 percent of the ICC funding comes from India. My fear is that if India stops funding the ICC, the PCB may collapse. Because Pakistan does not give any funding to ICC.

"I am determined to make Pakistan cricket stronger," Ramiz said. "If the Pakistan cricket team can beat India in the upcoming World Cup, they have prepared a blank check for the PCB," said one of our strongest investors.

Understanding the importance of having a strong financial structure at this time, he added, "If our cricket economy is strong, no one will be able to use us as they wish. As England-New Zealand did. The best cricket team and the best cricket economy are now two big challenges. '

Mostafiz's embarrassing record against Sakibs

Rajasthan Royals ended their IPL mission with a 7-run defeat to Kolkata Knight Riders on Thursday night. Bangladesh's cutter master Mostafizur Rahman's team has set an embarrassing record with this defeat. Although Mostafiz was unbeaten with the bat.

In reply to Kolkata's 181 runs in the match, Rajasthan was all out for only 75 runs. In the previous match against Mumbai Indians, Mostafiz managed to score only 90 runs. In other words, their total collection is 175 runs in two matches. Which is the lowest run record in two matches between IPL teams.

For so long this record was in the name of Kochi Tuskers Kerala. They scored 109 and 64 in two consecutive matches in the 2011 edition. Besides, in 2016, Royal Challengers Bangalore were all out for 49 and 134 runs and set a record of 173 runs in two matches. It is now occupied by Rajasthan.

Rajasthan also set a record for the highest margin of loss in the IPL against Kolkata. Earlier in 2009, the champions of the first edition of the IPL lost by 75 runs after chasing 134 runs against Bangalore. On the other hand, it was Kolkata's second-highest run win.

Rajasthan lost 6 wickets for only 35 runs in this match. No other team in the history of IPL has lost 6 wickets for so few runs before. Earlier in 2016, Bangalore had lost 6 wickets for 42 runs against Kolkata. They were all out for 49 runs that day.

With this, for the sixth time, Kolkata bowled out the opponent before 100 runs. Mumbai Indians and Bangalore have also bowled out their opponents below 100 six times.

Champion Mumbai may be eliminated in the toss

Mumbai Indians are the champions of the last two editions of Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket. They started this year's event with the aim of becoming the IPL hat-trick champion for the first time. But Rohit Sharma's team was on the verge of being eliminated in the first round as they could not play as expected.

However, Mumbai has not been left out yet. Today (Friday) is the last day of the league season against Mumbai's Sunrisers Hyderabad. The five-time IPL champions will get a ticket to the playoffs only if they can match an almost impossible equation in this match. After the toss again, their departure can be confirmed.

Out of 56 matches of the league, 54 have ended. Meanwhile, play-offs have been confirmed for Chennai Super Kings, Royal Challengers Bangalore, and Delhi Capitals. Punjab Kings, Rajasthan Royals, and Sunrisers Hyderabad have been left out. Now waiting for one ticket

It belongs to Knight Riders and Mumbai Indians.
Shakib Al Hasan's Kolkata is at number four in the table with 14 points from seven wins after 14 matches. Their net run rate is +0.56. On the other hand, Mumbai is at number six with 12 points after playing 13 matches. They lag far behind in net run rate, -0.046. That's why you don't have to lose 14 points to Hyderabad, you have to match a difficult equation.

In Friday's match, Mumbai will have to beat Hyderabad by at least 161 runs to go ahead of Kolkata in terms of net run rate. If they win by less than this margin, the current champions will have to bid farewell due to the net run rate with 14 points equal to Kolkata.

Mumbai can draw inspiration from their own past to match this almost impossible equation. They have the biggest margin of victory in the history of IPL. In the 2016 edition, they scored 213 runs against Delhi Daredevils and won by a huge margin of 146 runs.

If they can beat Hyderabad by 161 runs this time, Mumbai will get a ticket to the play-offs. However, after the toss, their IPL journey may end again. If Mumbai has to bat later, they will not be able to surpass Kolkata no matter how many balls they have. So Mumbai will take the toss for themselves.

However, the start of the match was not so easy for Sri Lanka. After losing the toss, they came down to bat and fell in front of the cannon of Oman bowlers. They lost 3 wickets in the first 10 overs of their innings and managed to score only 39 runs. The Lankans lost 3 wickets in the power play.

Later, Vanuka Rajapaksa returned as the fourth batsman after scoring 51 runs. 15 runs came from his bat. None of the first three batsmen could go double digits. However, Sri Lanka turned the match around for the fifth wicket. Dasun Shanaka and Avishka Fernando added 111 runs off 56 balls.
