The ICC World T20 moves into its third phase from Tuesday (21st March). This takes a look at the fixtures and offers those playing the game a new article for cricket discussions.

Fixtures

22nd March, Tuesday  –  New Zealand Vs Pakistan, Mohali

23rd March, Wednesday –  England Vs Afghanistan, Delhi & India Vs Bangladesh, Bengaluru

25th March, Friday – Pakistan Vs Australia, Mohali & South Africa Vs West Indies, Nagpur

26th March, Saturday – Bangladesh Vs New Zealand, Kolkatta &  Sri Lanka Vs England, Delhi

27th March, Sunday – Afghanistan Vs West Indies, Nagpur & India Vs Australia, Mohali

28th March, Monday- South Africa Vs Sri Lanka, Delhi

Discussion Points

  • From this we can see that New Zealand, Pakistan, Bangladesh play early on and their fixtures end early. So it would be good to load their players and save on some transfers.
  • Feroz shah kotla (New Delhi), Eden Gardens  (Kolkata), Chinna swamy (Bangalore) are slow pitches. But Mohali,Chandigarh is a little bit fast, skiddy, bouncy and grassy.

    A) Watson & Zampa
    B) Maxwell & Khawaja

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Need Watto. So go for A. But Khawaja is in a great form.

        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yeah, would be ideal to have both but it's a non-negotiable budget of 180K as I'm holding Afridi for the game and Shakib but Bangla's next.

        1. Grand Thibauto
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          No I get it. Go for A yet. Watson will be a popular captain pick. Zampa isn't that poor either.

            I think so. Appreciate your thoughts 🙂

    2. juggos
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'd most likely be shifting Shakib to Watto as I think it'd be too risky to go without and besides Afridi, he's my only real captaincy option. I'd just have to spend another transfer to get Shakib back for NZ

    Anyone for a super over? 🙂

    1. powderjunkie

      I was just thinking that

    2. Grand Thibauto
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Hoping Shakib to bowl and bat

      1. pompeyfan
        • 16 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Haha

    3. Murder on Zidane's Flo…

      Errrrrrrm...yes please!

  3. Grand Thibauto
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    WIN Bonus yesss!

  4. pompeyfan
    • 16 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Shouldve given Raina another over earlier on, then they wouldnt need Pandya for the last over

    1. Grand Thibauto
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Dhoni has him on Fantasy maybe. Pandya is probably India's most unnecessary bowler.

    2. powderjunkie
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I agree, it is a good wicket for spin, so bowl spin!

  5. powderjunkie
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Tense!

      Yes please!

    OMFG. Stomach in knots!

  11. powderjunkie

    • 11 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Why didn't Dhoni throw it?!!!

    1. Siva Mohan
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      coz Bangaldesh's non-striker was lazy.. and Dhoni knew he would reach first

  12. 1569Tippins

    INDIAAAAA!!!

  13. powderjunkie

    India win, damn it!

  14. pompeyfan

    Oh no

  15. 1569Tippins
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Bangladesh commit suicide there... but it's a great result for the tournament

  16. Flying Assassins
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    What a bottlejob!!!

  17. Parm
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    For the tournament favorites, India aren't that great are they?

    1. Siva Mohan
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      no.. both other teams are not great too.. it's NZ's cup to lose on form basis..

    2. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      They really aren't. I'm pretty disappointed with what they've served up so far (as a neutral).

    3. pompeyfan
      • 16 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Yuvi out for Rahane would be a good start

      1. KING KOUNDER
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Yuvi is there for the explosiveness, exactly what Rahane cant do, Rahane should be in for Dhawan.

      Good teams win when not at their best...

    5. MemphisDepay7
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Way too overhyped, won't get to the semis. It'll be Australia and England/WI in the final after NZ and SA have their customary choke

      1. Demí
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        lol Australia are terrible. No chance they even qualify

  18. pundit of punts

    Indiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    What a win!

    This will give us the momentum to lift the cup. 😀

    1. KING KOUNDER
      • 14 Years

      Whu whooo !

      Should have gone to the game !
      Best game in recent times ever.

  19. juggos
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    What a finish. Bang undid themselves though.

    Such a poor fantasy day for me. 280 from 4 in this one including winning bonus. Going for Bumrah over Pandya was awful

    1. juggos
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      How'd everyone else do?

      1. 1569Tippins
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        343 from 5... I'm happy enough with that, as I've got Shakib, Iqbal and M. Rahman in place for their next fixture and Bumrah can stay in my side at 70k.

        On the downside... I'd kept 20k in the bank to sell Raina for Watson... without realising that I'd be left with only 3 batsmen! It's a schoolboy error that will cost me a valuable transfer or risk going without Watson, which I don't think I can afford to do.

        1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          That sucks...

          I am contemplating sacrificing a transfer on taking Shakib out knowing I'll spend one getting him back in. It would allow me to field Watson and Khawaja tomorrow.

          1. 1569Tippins
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            Might have to do that myself, inorder to get Watson.

            Only other possible plan, is to try and identify a top order batsmen I would want for 80k or under... Johnson Charles or Andre Fletcher possibly, but I think there's question marks over who will open/play if Gayle is fit

          2. 1569Tippins
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 14 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            How many Pak and Aus you got?

            I've only got Afridi and Amir at the moment, which is why I'm so desperate to get Watson(C) in to balance my small but select side

            1. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
              • 14 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              What about Khawaja? Opening the batting for the Aussies and he is the most reliable batsman they have right now. Plus he's just had the summer of his life.

              I've got Afridi, Amir, and Shehzad. No Aussies but 17 transfers left and I intend to add Watson and Zampa OR Khawaja. Much like India their fixtures are too far apart for me to be massively interested in large numbers. Plus they've hardly set the tournament on fire so far.

              1. 1569Tippins
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 14 Years
                9 years, 8 months ago

                Khawaja is perfect!! Expected him to be 100k, completely forgot he's only 80k... I've only got 12 transfers left, so I need to make sure I'm getting the players in who can score the most and also budget friendly, so I can still get the big guns when they play.

      2. Murder on Zidane's Flo…
        • 14 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        263 from 3.

        Decided to just go with Raina from India, and will keep Shakib and Tamin for Bangla's next fixture. India's points are a little bit unpredictable and there's a lack of form to in the top order really. That, together with the gap between fixtures, put me off.

        All in all, happy with my choice.

        I'm going massive on WI all rounder options!

        1. juggos
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          That's a good score. I didn't have the balls to go with just Raina. Kohli's high ownership scared me.
          It was actually very poor planning on my part since I brought in Bumrah when I could have gone for a bang option and gotten two games out of them or just gone with zampa for tomorrow. Hopefully my other transfers play out better

    2. Chucky
      • 11 Years

      245 from 3

    3. Parm
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      200 from 3 with no captain 😎

    4. Grand Thibauto
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      285 from 3

  20. Rake
    • 10 Years

    Indiaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!

    This is the stuff dreams are made of. Great win!

  21. GS456
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Who would you rather keep on Wildcard?
    A) Mahrez
    B) Vardy

    Keeping Vardy suits me better, as can then have 4DGW midfielders + Lukaku + Kun

    Looking at this for 34
    Cech (or Hart if fit)
    Bellerin, Rojo, Sakho, Reid, Simpson
    Yaya, Firminho, Ozil, Payet, King
    Aguero, Lukaku, Vardy.

    Indiaaaaaaaaa!!

    Raina, Rohit(C), Ashwin and Dhoni from this game. Not too bad apart from captain choice

    1. Chucky
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Good.How many points for Ashwin

  23. Hazard267
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Some how stayed at 22nd overall despite captaining Rohit think Al Amin and Moeen Ali must of really helped me

    1. juggos
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Well done. I've dropped from 11th after yesterday to 21st after today. Very few pts separate us. Hoping FSN gets back in to that #1 spot though

      1. Hazard267
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Nice little battle between use 🙂 but yeh noticed we fell to second I would assume it's because a majority of them are Indian probably had Ashwin

        1. juggos
          • 13 Years
          9 years, 8 months ago

          That's not a bad assumption. Let's hope it's true!

          1. juggos
            • 13 Years
            9 years, 8 months ago

            By that I mean I hope on average they've already used more transfers than us by trying to fit in Indian players

            1. Hazard267
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              9 years, 8 months ago

              Let's hope 🙂

    2. 1569Tippins

      I've moved up from 81st to 29th

      1. Hazard267
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years

        Nice 😉

      2. juggos

        Nicely done

  24. Hazard267

    Just a reminder there is no games tommorow

  25. ianp1970
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    322 for me, 19th overall.

    Not sure if this is good or bad :0

    1. juggos
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      19th overall is very good. You have a shot at winning a few prizes I'd think. You're not in either of the ffscout leagues are you?

    2. Hazard267
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Brilliant mate

    3. 1569Tippins

      Very good sir

  26. Hazard267
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    Gayle Vs AB for captain will be an interesting one

    1. 1569Tippins
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'll be going Russell or Bravo... splitting them solely on % ownership

    2. juggos
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      I'd be going Bravo most likely. Still waiting on a big performance from him

  27. Parm

    No games tomorrow 🙁

      Oh bugger!

      That's a pain. Oh well, I get a night' sleep I suppose. I'll just need to see if the body remembers how...

  28. sayanno

    9 years, 8 months ago

    Yesterday's last minute lose of Bangladesh costed me 40 winning points and so far a 30 points of MOTM. However, need to cover this 70 today in PAK vs AUS. Please suggest your transfer plans. I do have Afridi, Shehzad and Amir.

  29. Grand Thibauto
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 8 months ago

    From 40th to 35th overall with only 285 from 3. Is this game for real?
