India win the first ODI of season but lost the second

India lost the 2nd ODI of series against the SRI Lankans by 9 wickets after winning the first one day 2 days ago. In the first ODI india innings began well to score a good score of 314 for 6 in 50 overs. In today match the indians did not start well and lost wickets at regular interval. The team was bowled for 138 all out in 33.3 overs and the Sri Lankan team chased with ease losing only 1 wicket. But in 1st ODI Kohli, Sehwag, Dhoni, Raina scored pretty well and the fielding of the Sri Lankan team was not up to the mark. The Sri Lankan innings never got a start. Sangakara played a fine knock of 133 but was not enough to register a win for the home team and lost the match by 21 runs. I think the Indians should change their combination for the next 3 matches by bringing Ashok Dinda in place of Umesh Yadav, Manoj Tiwary of Rohit Sharma.

Australia no longer a strong team in ODI's

Australia are no longer a strong team as they have been beaten by a good english team. The English team are leading the 5 match series 3-0 with 1 match to go with 1 match did not happen because of rain. The margin of each defeat is was very bad as they lost the first match by 15 runs, 2nd match by 6 wickets and the last match at durham by 8 wickets. The batting of Australian team has been let down in seaming condtions. They were facing the likes of Anderson, Finn, Broad, Bresanan and the best spinner in the form of Swann. The pitch at Durham was very good for the bowlers as the English side capatalized the condtions very well. The Aussies scored only 200 runs and the england team chased it with ease. The bowling also looked below par with Lee, Mckay, Johoson and Doherty, watson were not able to pick wickets at regular interval. This made the life of Clarke very bad. The next ashes to be played in 2013 would be a very diffcult task for the Aussie if they do not find good batsman ...

In 2012 cricket is going to be main attention as there are 3 major events to take place. From August 11 a under world cup will be held in Australia where 12 teams will fight for the biggest honour. In 2010 Australia were the champions and this India has a chance to win the trophy. Soon after that The women's T-20 world cup will commence from the 26th sept and finish on the 7th of October and at the same time the men's team will also compete in the fourth edition of shortest form of the game that is T-20. This tournamnet will began from 18th of september and end on the same date as the women's. I think that India has a good chance to win the U-19 cup and also the T-20 cup. India can do it because of the talent and also the ablity to score runs quickly. India team has players like Dhoni, Rania, Sehwag and also good spinner in Ashwin, Jadeja and Zaheer khan.

unsung heroes of the IPL and bad heroes

The IPL 5 season that began from the 4th april and went till the 27th may has seen some great performances from Indian players from the bat and the ball who are knocking the door in the Indian national team. The batting deapartment include Shikhar Dhawan who plays from the Deccan Chargers with 569 runs with an average of 40.64, then Ajikya Rahane who has been playing well for the Mumbai state team in Ranji trophy has done very well to score 560 runs from the Rajasthan Royals and finally Mandeep Singh playing from Kings XI punjab scoring 432 runs. These players can play for the Indian team in shorter form of cricket that is twenty-twenty. In the bowling front some of Indian bowlers who has been never given the chance to play any cricket was given an oppournity to show their talent. Ajit Chandela an off spinner shook the world with hattrick against the Deccan Chargers. Parvinder Awana also made an impact by bowling well taking 17 wicket in 12 mathces with economy of 7.91. Also oth...

Indians are relying on some great perfomaces from players like Sania Nehwal from Badmination, tennis has unseeded player like Vishnuvardhan and leander paes, Sania Mirza in the ladies singles and also in the mixed doubles which leaander Paes and saina mirza. I think also there is good for the archery players like Deepika Kumari, Dola Banajree and the men's which have qualifed for the olympics. The Indian national hockey team that the men's team who had qualifed for the olympics after winning the qualifer in new delhi in feburary this year. The Indian hockey team has to careful of some strong teams like South Africa, New Zeland, Holland, South Koreans, Belguim and if they reach the semi finals they have to aware of the Aussies and other strong opponent. The indian team is hoping to do well and are preapring their level best ...
