But honestly tell me do most of the times teams manage to double their score of 30 overs? If not why do commentators say this thing repeatedly?

The commentators calculations may not work in cricket

It is not possible to make a score of double that of 30 overs in a 50 over match. I think what the commentators are telling is that whatever score a team make in the first 30 overs, they can make double than that in the remaining 20 overs. However, this will entirely depend upon how many wickets have been lost by the team batting,. If they have lost only 2 or 3 wickets at the end of 30 overs, they can defenitely double the score in the remaining 20 overs.

This hypothesis works only if the batting team have not lost too many wickets in the first 30 overs.
They say, if you have lost less than three wickets in the first 30 overs, your 30 over score would be doubled at the end of the 50th over.
Of course there are many many exceptions since cricket is a game of glorious uncertainty. What if there is a hatrick and the batting side slides from 140-2 to 160-7 in the span of five overs?

Often it is. If a side has wickets in hand it can often double its score after 30 overs (50 over match)
During the last 10 overs, teams always go after the bowling and as a result a lot more runs

I agree with you. I have noticed the same thing.
Dean Jones was the first to say this on TV. Then many Indian commentators started copying him.
It actually doesn't happen most of the times.
It's all about wickets. If you have 7 wickets in hand at the end of 30 overs then there is a good chance to double the score but if you don't have much wickets then it's tough.
Cheers!!!

yes it is a truth that a team can make the double wat they made in 30 overs. The ratio of the same is 80:20.
Thats why the last overs of the ennings r called slog overs and because of bruttel explosive batting team can make the score double.

not always true and hardly do commentators say that.
the reason is clear b'coz run-rate keeps decreasing n increasing so its uncertain to predict any score. If a team is scoring at a slower rate within 30 overs, they might continue it for the next 20 overs or they might increase the run-rate.
The RPO (run-rate) keeps changing every over by atleast 0.25 r/over because the players keep varying the no. of runs scored in an over.

You are telling them to score less in the first half and chase the score in the second half. It works for emergency situations. For a regular player consistency should be there. The initial energy may not the there towards the end of he game. We have 4+ foot kids in the team. They will have the stamina and resistance proportional to their size only.

It would have been better to cite the source to look authentic rather than looking just a fanciful statement.
The sources can be added for the benefit of all interested.

They say this wickets are remaining. They say that to show the importance of preserving wickets. This applies only when many wickets are available.
