Thanks for raising very legitimate questions about Cricket matches in the POD. I hail everyone have a look about the description I did for all the series and pool here. #756519
However I now feel it's not complete for everyone.
Let me clarify.
When there's no multination world tournament (like the one we had in June - ICC World Twenty20 in USA), various National teams in Cricket play each other generally in bilateral series. The series can range from 1 to 7 matches.
The games that are included in the Cricket Pool are all bilateral series till now. You see the same teams again and again because they're playing each other mote than 1 match for the series.
I provide links with the match in the pool post. The purpose of providing link is not limited to showing you the result or scorecard. Every detail related to the match or series or teams is given there.
Right now we're having 4 major bilateral series around the globe.
-
South Africa is hosting India for a four match T20 series.
-
Newzealand is in a tour to Sri Lanka for a two match T20 series (Completed today) and a 3 match One day International (50 over match) series.
-
West Indies is hosting England for 3 match series of ODIs (Already completed) and a five match series of T20s.
-
Pakistan is touring Australia for 3 ODIs and 3 T20s.
-
Afghanistan is hosting Bangladesh in UAE for 3 ODIs.
You can always check for schedule of all Cricket happening around the globe by clicking
https://www.espncricinfo.com/live-cricket-score
You just have know how to navigate on ESPNcricinfo. For schedule click on "matches". You'll find 'Live', 'Upcoming' and 'Recent' tab there.
With every match, you see a 'Tour' link. When you click there, you'll see the details about the tour or the series.
If there's still any confusion, you can always ask me. It's my bad that I thought it to be a very normal thing.
Thanks for your support.

These aren't called friendly matches for they are included in ICC's roaster for World rankings which decide for a prize money on April 1 every year for the top team in a format. The money that the top team gets is in millions.

Yes. All the best. I want to visit your place. That's on top of my list.
Yes, I listened they gave it a name Cataluña Cricket League for T10 format. It's quite famous. We also get live coverage of those games.

So obvious SA would win 😉
reply
You're overconfident and thinking yourself the expert on Cricket.
South Africa is the home team and home teams are losing. I must declare it now - India will win rest of the two matches to clinch the Ind-SA T20 series by 3-1. It was just a fluke today. Even in today's game SA have almost lost it when the spinners were bowling.
reply
Sounds like you are the one who is overconfident.
YOU HAVE DECLARED IT.

Can you talk to the Australian team about giving up a home soil series like that
reply
If you'll pass a message to Indian team giving away the home test series to Newzealand 3-0, I'll definitely pass yours to Australian team.
I think we're in a season where home teams are losing. India is coming to Australia very soon. Would be better if Australia keeps on doing the same.
reply
No no we will turn the tide against India we can’t let your team win here like you can’t let Aus win there
reply
Well we'll see. India might have lost against NZ at home but the last two times India visited Australia, India have defeated them in their backyard. This time will be no different.

I'm glad it's helpful.
I'm also thinking about making some general FAQ post related to Cricket to ensure everyone gets to know about Cricket's general rules and playing norms.
