Compaq Cup 2009 Tri nation cricket, HP title sponsor and Ten Sports has broadcast right

Compaq Cup 2009 is perhaps the new steps in Asian Cricket. The upcoming tri-nation cricket series tournament that will be commenced on 8 September in Sri Lanka, sponsored by Indias leading PC brand, HP. This may be the first time that any brand computer producer is going to became the title sponsor in the Asian Cricket tournament. At the middle of August they singed an agreement with the governing committee of the tri-nation series among two most popular cricket teams of sub-continent and the third country is nothing but New Zealand which has been passing time playing Tests and Twenty20s earlier on August.

 

Vyoms

Shubhodip Pal, Head of Consumer Marketing, Personal Systems Group, Hewlett Packard India said, As cricket fever grips our nation, we at HP are extremely enthusiastic about our association with cricket as we progress to connect more strongly with our customers across different segments. I am sure the Compaq Cup is going to be a thrilling journey for viewers across the world and HP through the Compaq Cup will be able to set new heights in superior experience, enhanced value, viewership and excitement. I take this opportunity to wish all the teams and the players the very best of luck for the Compaq Cup ahead.

 

Beside the title sponsor I want to mention bout he broadcast right holder which will air the all matches live. Middle East based Satellite TV channel Ten Sports will air the tri-nation cricket series. Although Hewlett-Packard is playing the roll of the title sponsor, it was the sponsor of the IPL T20 cricket tournament. 

Rahul Dravid to return for Tri Nation series and Champions Trophy

After the twenty20 Indian team was totally out of cricket routine. At this moment they are visiting Sri Lanka to take parts in a Tri Nation Series that will be held among host Sri Lanka, the Black Caps (New Zealand) and India. All the teams are very serious to improve their position. Although the way of Sri Lanka looking well but other two nations is quite in extra pressure because of their previous performances in the last few matches.

At this moment the most deliberated incident in Indian cricket is the return of Rahul Dravid in the next One-Day squad for the next Tri Nation series and ICC Champions League. He was kept out from the limited over cricket match near about two years. He has been recalled for the bad performances of the Rohit Sharma. The previous batting performance disappointed all selector board. It also caused for earlier exile from the second season of the Twenty20 world championship.

It is sure that there is no way of brining change to over come this situation to over come. It hoped that it will be difficult to the protest Indian team to be the champions in the T20 WC before Indian Premier League second season. Anyway, I don’t blame that taking part in IPL cause bad performance. I hope India will overcome all weakness in the next tours including Champions Trophy.

India passed the first practices session before Tri-Nation series

After Twenty20 World Championship 2009, India comes to the practice camping from 10 August. Aim is to face the Tri-Nation odi series in Sri Lanka among the host SL, India and New Zealand. The first practice session all teammates did not attend was not full of team mates. The seven men along with Indian skipper MS Dhoni had to face all the in three tests; fitness, mental test and playing condition. But legend batsman Virender Sehwag may not attend in the pre Champions Trophy Practice session for shoulder injury.

It is true that India will get a very good opportunity before champions’ trophy. Indian players will take on two competitors who could be competitors in South Africa on September. Coach Gary Kristen is satisfied of the players’ physical fitness. India took part in the Kit Ply Tri-Nation series in Bangladesh when Indian lost to Pakistan. In 2000 India lost to New Zealand and 2002 India and Sri Lanka became the winner jointly.

Ind vs Pak Kitply Tri-series: who will win in final?

To Watch India vs Pakistan Kitply Tri-Nation Final

http://www.indianraj.com/2008/06/india_pakistan_tri_series_fina.html

India and Pakistan is going to play in the Kitply Tri-Series cricket tournament final match tomorrow. India is has secure the full points from the qualified round and Pakistan was on the second position just has won one match of the two to play the final match. With this, the arch-rival India vs Pakistan is going to meet in final of the Kitply Tri-nation Cricket Tournament again.

Dear fans, you all know that the people of the Indian Sub-continent always enjoy the matches between Ind vs Pak with a most excitement. In the pervious math of Kitply Cup Tri-nation Series between India and Pakistan, the gallery was full to the brim and I think it will be repeated in final cricket match of the Tri-Nation series tournament. It proves how favorite the matches between Indian and Pakistan are! although Bangladesh was another team here.

The first match between India and Pakistan review:

The first match between the two was full of enthusiasm. India won the toss and elected to bat first and own by 140 with a mind blowing performances of the players form the both side batting and fielding. So it is a dependable work style for the final match of the ongoing series of the Kitply Tri-Nation tournament series.

Indian top order batsmen G Gambhir, V Sehwag and Yuvraj Singh’s successive performances help India to score a big score of 330 runs that will inspire them to do well in the final match. G Gambhir scored 62 runs from 62 balls by hitting 6 fours, V Sehwag acquired 89 runs form 76 balls with 13 fours and just a single six and another hard hitter batsman Yuvraj Singh obtained 55 runs from 54 balls with 3 fours and 3 sixes. The middle order batsmen YK Pathan and RG Sharma failed to attain any good score to the India and the run rate was gone slowly. But the lower-middle batsmen did well that is why India could secure another big sore against Pakistan in the One Day International tournament.

During the match, the second match of Kitply Cup Tri-Series tournament, Indian bowlers threw a challenge to the Pakistani batsmen. The new bowler Praveen Kumar and Piyush Chawla secured 4 wickets each. With this aggressive bowling India did not built any strong base in the Pakistan side. Piyush Chawla acquired his top bowing figure in the ODI tournament in the Kitply Cup Tri-Series tournament 4 wickets for 40 runs. On the other hand the Praveen Kumar obtained his 3^rd 4 wickets in the One Day International tournament.

I wrote before that Pakistan batsmen did not built any strong partnership against the second match of the of the Kitply Cup Tri-Series tournament. The top and top-middle order batsmen’s early downfall turned the team in the dangerous position. As a result, Pakistan lost all wickets just secured 190 runs form 35.4 overs. Pakistan skipper Shoaib Malik scored 53 runs and the higher scorer. Kamran Akmal is the second highest scorer, Misbah-ul-Haq and Shahid Afridi just scored 24 and 23 runs each.

We can not say that Pakistan showed very good performances alongside the wicker team of the Kitply Tri-Nation Series tournament. In case of rain, the authority decided to decrease the overs and fixed it for 40 over. Pakistan secured 233 runs by remaining 39.3 balls losing all wickets.

During the match between Bangladesh and Pakistan, Pak bowlers showed good presentation but they seems helpless to the Indian batting. During the match alongside India of the Kitply Cup Tri-Nation Series, Omar Gul showed best staging and achieved 3 wickets by giving huge runs of 60. Most interesting thing is that the most successive bowler of the Pakistan side, Sohail Tanvir showed performances in the matches disappointed all the fans of Pakistan.

From the reviews, anyone can assume that Indian is standing in the strong situation from both the sites bowing and bating. Indian top order batting is so strong now that they could do anything any time. If Pakistan wants to win the Kitply Cup Tri-Nation series Tournament trophy they will have to show a good act in the final of the series.

Bangladesh Vs India: Tri-Series Tournament of Kitply Cup who will win?

With the match the qualification round of Kitply Cup Tri-Series tournament will come to end. In the first match, Bangladeshi batsmen did not able to show any capabilities. If they could do well it could be better for them. If there any chance come to beat India in the second match they would have a possibilities to play in the final of the Kitply Cup Tir-nation Series. Now the next match will tell what they could do. Bangladesh could play in final if they can beat India in a long distance.

India is a strong and most favorite team in the Kitply Tir-series Tournament Series. They beat Pakistan in long distance of 140 runs. India won the toss and the captain MS Dhoni elected bat first. Indian openers G Gambhir and V Sehwag stared well and added 155 runs. This partnership stranded India in a strong base.

Indian bowlers also showed best performances of P Kumar and PP Chawla’s 4 wickets each turned the road of victory easily.

Now, we have to wait what he result come. Bangladesh is a very weak team in the cricket world. It beat Indian just one time in Bangladesh ODI era. So could they repeat that time? On the other hand India started its tournament as a favorite team and they will try to hold the chain of victory.
