Sri Lanka vs India 2009: Squad for India ODIs at home series

Sri Lanka has announced the squad for the home series against India. They selection committee has declared a 15 men squad for the ODIs and also 4 men for as the stand by players. They did not bring any change to the squad that played during the Pakistan tour. 

In the previous tour of Pakistan, Sri Lanka earned a 2-1 series victory whenever they got a most runs victory in the 3rd ODI. Winning toss, Sri Lanka cashed 309 runs in the scoreboard. Aiming to touch 209 runs, Pakistan lost all wickets just adding 75 runs in the scoreboard as a result Sri Lanka secured a most run victory. 

I am confused about the squad because during the Tri-Nation series in Bangladesh Sri Lanka did not able to do well although they secure the Trophy. During the fist match over Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka scored 210/6 from 50 over and the match against Bangladesh, Sri Lanka 147 (30.3/31 ov). In the reply reached the target 23.5/31 overs. In the final Bangladesh aches 152 runs from 49.4 overs to fill the target Sri Lanka had to loss 8 wickets by playing 48.1 overs. 

I think Sri Lankan has thought largely about the last series victory as a capital and the last Kit-Ply series in Bangladesh too. 

Sri Lanka: Mahela Jayawardene (captain), Kumar Sangakkara, Sanath Jayasuriya, Upul Tharanga, Chamara Kapugedera, Jehan Mubarak, Tillakaratne Dilshan, Thilina Kandamby, Muttiah Muralitharan, Ajantha Mendis, Farveez Maharoof, Dilhara Fernando, Nuwan Kulasekera, Thilan Thushara, Angelo Mathews 

Chamara Silva, Malinga Bandara, Mahela Udawatte and Chanake Welagedara were named as stand by player

Geeta Basra: A new face in bollywoood film industry

Geeta Basra used to live in England’s island city Portsmouth and comes from England to Mumbai to be a Bollywood star and she entered in Bollywood through the Directer Aaditya Datt’s film Dil Diya Hai. Before entering to the film industry she performed on stage. 

Now, Geeta Basra is a new actress in Bollywood and started her film carrier in 2006 by the Hindi film ‘Dil Diya Hai’ and her second movie was ‘The train’ in 2007. 

A quote from Santabanta.com "The sheer vision of the director and an emotional story that runs with it", Geeta is prompt in replying, "Apart from lead roles, there were offers for item songs and music videos but I didn't want to do anything where my heart was not set in. 

The film ‘Dil Diya Hai’ was released in 2006. Film star Emraan Hashmi acted along with Geeta Basra. Other actors were Mithun Chakraborty (Rony) Ashmit Patel (Kunaal Malik). Emraan Hashmi (saheel) and Geeta Basra (Neha Mehra) was in lead role. 

In 2007, her 2nd film was ‘The train’ was directed by Hasnain Hyderabadwala and Raksha Mistry. In this film, Geeta Basra acted a part of seductress role. Her name was Roma kapoor.  Emraan Hashmi played Vishal Dixit and Sayali Bhagat acted Vishal Dixit’s wife as Anjali Dixit. In the film, Vishal Dixit and Anjali Dixit had a 5 years odl daughter. Here Geeta Basra acted a seductress part but it was lead role. The train remakes Hollywood film Derailed. Although Geeta Basra’s two films did not get any successful in box-office but her act came on gossiping in Bollywood. Because Emraan Hashmi and Geeta Basra did a very a close scan.

The Buddhist asked all kinds of help from Nepal Government to stop this movie in Nepal. But in illegal CDs/DVDs are being handing over in Nepal across the Indian borders.

Nepal’s Foreign Minister Regmi asked to take steps to stop this movie in other countries. 80 percent Hindu and 11 percent Buddhist have been living in Nepal where Indian movie is so popular and Hindi language is available there. Nepalese are excited this type of wrong information about ‘Siddartha Gautama’ who was born 2,500 years ago and at Lumbini. Nepal is a deeply spiritual place and Nepalese are really socked so they want to stop this movie in Nepal and other country.

Nine years ago 3 people are killed and 180 injured for this that Bollywood actors Hrithik Roshan said that he did not like Nepal and Nepalese.

Even some of the biggest companies are combining there business and agreeing to work jointly. The effect is on the mobile phone markets too. Although the cell phone makers are trying to attract the consumers with various offers but general people are making conserve to spend money. 

Strategy Analytics reported:

Just 295 million cellphones were shipped worldwide in Q4 2008, down a significant 10% from 329 million units a year earlier. An economic downturn in developed and emerging markets caused the industry’s weakest growth rate since 2001. Retailers de-stocked due to credit tightness, while consumers delayed purchases because of fears of a recession. Three of the top 5 handset vendors grew at negative rates. Samsung performed best, grabbing an 18% global share. Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola continued to disappoint. Full-year shipments for the industry grew just 5% in 2008, to 1.18 billion units.

I also know that retaining the top spot will be even tougher and it will require lots of sacrifices, consistency, hard work and dedication," Shakib said.

 

The previous records of Bangladesh against Zimbabwe are very satisfactory. In the last two tours Bangladesh acquired victories in both series home and abroad. The tie breaking match will be more anticipated to the fans of both teams.

 

Bangladesh is thinking seriously to take on the series title. But the batting line-up is not too stable. If you look over the first match, you can measure it easily the early losing wickets through them not to make a challenging score. It was not easy to overcome Bangladeshi’s 124 runs. Similarly, Zimbabwe did not take easily to the Bangladeshi bowlers and lost 5 wickets just adding 37 runs and to win the match the guest Zimbabwe was in pressure and took the match by 2 wickets. 

In the second match Bangladeshi batsmen was looking change. The opening batsmen batted carefully and showed passion to overtake 160 run. Mupariwa hit in bangldesh batting line up first time and hunted opener Tamim Iqbal’s wicket. Other opener Mehrab Hossain jnr added 43 runs from 108 balls. Bangladeshi captain Mohammad Ashraful disappointed all the cricket fans in both innings. In both matches he just score 4 and 5 runs. 

The 3rd match will be taken place on 23 January 2009 at Shere Bangla National Stadium, Mirpur at 9:00AM local time. And Bangladesh Television BTV will telecast live the match and the South African TV channel Super Sports will also telecast the match live too.

Pakistan vs Sri Lanka ODI 2009: Shoaib Akhtar’s fitness question?

No doubt that Shoaib Akhtar is one of the fast bowlers in cricket world. He was kept out from the international cricket for 14 months. He was available for the Indian Primer League, when PCB. Now, he is regular for the international cricket and playing along side the Sri Lanka team in the three matches ODI in the home ground. But there is question about his fitness after the second match against Sri Lanka. Pakistan captain Shoaib Malik himself explains to the board about the condition of the last two matches and asked to find out the new face for the Pakistan team.

 Reuters reported:

Malik said: "We have to move forward. There are a number of good fast bowlers around on the domestic scene and they deserve a chance. I will take this up with the selectors and team management and these things will be kept in mind."

"If you look at his performances and record and matches he has won, there is no question over his effectiveness," Malik said. "But the question is over 100% fitness. Cricket has changed and if you aren't 100% fit then it is difficult." 

It is clear that the day of Shoaib Aktar has come to end. Even his IPL franchise is thinking to leave him. The notable think is that he was played in the side of Kolkata Knights Riders. What is his problem, his long run-up? As per as I remember that Pakistan most success blower Wasim Akram advice Shoaib should give concentration on technique than speed.

Englishman Samit Patel will join in the IPL T20 second season

This is the first time England cricketers are going to attend in the BCCI organized Indian Premier League. Last year, the DLF IPL T20 was inaugurated during the home cricket series of England that is why no players attend in the tournament. Though the English all-rounder Dimitri Mascarenhas who signed up to play on the favor of Rajsthan Royals but could not able to play. This year, in the second season of the IPL two players have confirmed to join in the tournament. Even the authority has shown green signal to join. 

The young Englishman Samit Patel, the spinner showed very good performances against South Africa. At present he is playing on Nottinghamshire club in the home cricket. The director of Nottinghamshire Mick Newell allows him to join IPL in spite of West Indies Test series.

 

Quoted from BBC:

"I'm looking forward to playing alongside and against the best players in the world," said Patel, who is on an ECB increment contract over the summer.

 

Last year, Chairman and Commissioner of Indian Premier League (IPL T20) Lalit Modi tried heart and soul and met to the ECB about to English players in IPL and that is why the second season of IPL T20 has been scheduled before the England home series and during the gap before the West Indies tour. 

Will Mohammad Asif be allowed to attend in IPL T20 tournament?

Mohammad Asif, Pakistan pace bowler who played in inaugural India Premier League but for having drugs and was under arrest at the Dubai airport during return to home last year. Now, it is a question that will he get permission to play in the second season of IPL T20. Although Dubai police did filed any case but informed the PCB about his unexpected matter. Still now, PCB has kept him in suspension. May be there is a rule in IPL that no ban players will allow to attend in the T20 tournament. 

But Mohammad Asif strongly showed positive document on behalf of him that has taken treatment from a local Hakim who told him to use but he did not know that it was opium. 

NDTV reported:

"Although no criminal charges was laid against him, but since he was deported Asif cannot enter Dubai unless he is given permission by the immigration and police authorities there," one PCB source said.

 

Although the amount of drug was just 0.24 grams but in the view of law is it totally illegal. Now he has to wait for the PCB’s positive signal. Here I want to mention about the massive terrorist attacks in Mumbai the relationship come negative between the two countries India and Pakistan. That is why the matches between India and Pakistan has been kept stop. So, this decision will felt effect to attend the Pakistan players to play in the fourth coming IPL T20 tournament?

If you want to get the live score and updates of the first twenty20 match between Australia and South Africa, then visit the following link:

Australia vs South Africa 1st Twenty20: Live Score, Updates


Following a rare test series defeat at home, Australia is going to take on visiting South Africa in the first of the two-match Twenty20 series in Melbourne on 11 January 2009 (Sunday). South Africa is full of confidence after clinching a historic test series victory on Australian soil recently, even though they lost the third and the final test of the series. Australian team regained some of their lost confidence by wining the third test match at Sydney. So, Australian team will now look to take revenge in the upcoming Twenty20 and ODI series and they would like to kick off their revenge program right from the first Twenty20 which will take place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Match: Australia vs South Africa, First Twenty20, Australia vs South Africa Twenty20 Series 2009

Date: 11 January 2009, Sunday

Venue: Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne, Australia

Kick off: 19:35 local time (08:35 GMT)

Australian selectors recently named 13-member Twenty20 squad with Mathew Hayden being the notable exclusion. This hard-hitting opener is going though a bad patch of time and Australian selectors indicated that they are looking for a young player who would be part of Australian team for World Twenty20 which will take place in England in June this year. New South Wales opener David Warner has been rewarded a call in Australian twenty20 team for the first time. Warner, who has been in an excellent form in Australia’s domestic cricket this season, is expected to open with hard-hitting batsman Shaun Marsh followed by Ricky Ponting, David Hussey, Michael Hussey, and Brad Haddin (wk) in the batting line up.

There are three all rounders in the squad: James Hopes, Ryan Harris and Cameron White. Pacer all-rounder Hopes and leg-spin all rounder White are expected to make it to the final eleven. Pacer Shaun Tait has been back into Australian squad after 12 months since he walked away from cricket because of exhaustion (both physical and mental). Left arm pacer Nathan Bracken and Tait are expected to lead Australia’s pace attack, while Hopes’ handy medium pace could be pretty effective for hosts. Now, there is another place left to make it eleven and the place could most probably go to off spinner Nathan Hauritz in what pacer Ben Hilfenhaus and uncapped all rounder Ryan Harris would be left out of the first eleven. So, Australian has a very balanced Twenty20 squad in the presence of a number of all rounders as well as hard hitting batsmen who have been in excellent form in recent time.

Australia’s Twenty20 Squad

Ricky Ponting (capt), Michael Hussey, David Hussey, Ben Hilfenhaus, James Hopes, Nathan Bracken, Brad Haddin (wk), Shaun Marsh, Shaun Tait, David Warner, Ryan Harris, Cameron White, Nathan Hauritz.

Well, South Africa also has very strong squad which would definitely take a stern test of the host side. Even though they would miss their inspirational Captain Graeme Smith who is currently injured out for the Twenty20 and ODI series against Australia. Some of the important players of South African are Johan Botha, Herschelle Gibbs, Morne Morkel, Albie Morkel, Dale Steyn, Makhaya Ntini, Jean-Paul Duminy, AB de Villiers and there are some promising uncapped players like left arm pacer Lonwabo Tsotsobe, hard-hitting batsman Vaughn van Jaarsveld and young all rounder Wayne Parnell who starred in 2006 U-19 World Cup.

South Africa’s Twenty20 and ODI Squad

Johan Botha (c), Hashim Amla, Mark Boucher (wk), AB de Villiers, Jean-Paul Duminy, Herschelle Gibbs, Jacques Kallis, Neil McKenzie, Albie Morkel, Morne Morkel, Makhaya Ntini, Wayne Parnell, Dale Steyn, Lonwabo Tsotsobe, Vaughn van Jaarsveld.

Australia and South Africa faced each other in Twenty20 internationals twice so far with both sides winning once each. Both the matches were held way back in 2006. No doubt, both the teams have gone though many changes in these three years. Australia’s dominance in world cricket is gradually being faded away, while South Africa’s dominance is rising day by day. Australian will definitely miss the service of injured all rounders Andrew Symonds and Shane Watson. On the other hand, South Africa will not get Captain Graeme Smith.

Twenty20 cricket is always full of entertainment. It is, in fact, a complete package of excitement and enjoyment for three hours. Twenty20 cricket is more uncertain than any other version of cricket as a Twenty20 match can take an abrupt turn at any situation. So, the upcoming match is also expected to be a highly competitive affair with both Australia and South Africa looking to start the twenty20 series with a win in Melboune.

Online Live Score and Updates

Here, I am giving some website links from where you can get to know the live score and updates of the match between Australia and South Africa:

Predicting for a cricket match is always very hard because cricket is a game of uncertainty, and when it comes to Twenty20 cricket, making prediction is as hard as facing the speediest bowler in the world with a bat made of plastic. Both Australia and South Africa have 50-50 chances to win the match as both sides include some match winners. I just hope that the first twenty20 match of the series will be as exciting as the test series.
