rtmohanlal Posted July 2, 2019 Posted July 2, 2019 (edited) Going thru the entire tournament a general trend was sooo emphatically evident . Team batting first and setting a target of 250+ invariably winning the match. The chasing team at the most coming so close but invariably losing the match. On the other hand if team batting first gets bundled out for a very small score, the team batting 2nd reaches the target with in no time with bulk of the overs to spare. There was only one instance where a 250 target was chased successfully in this world cup, 321 set by Windies was chased brilliantly by BAN( a team which was only a minnow till a few years back). Other than that even the higher ranked teams couldn't chase a 250+ score. On the other hand there were a few instances where modest targets were successfully defended. This all makes it wonder w.r.t the purpose of even playing. 'Win the toss and bat first & win the match'. Then what is the purpose of even playing? Isn't it so better in every way to concede the match to the team winning toss? I think ICC needs to think seriously about this. Edited July 2, 2019 by rtmohanlal
