Pakistan vs South Africa Twenty20: Who will win? Live score

By explaining some of the points I just will inform you the real condition of the match between Pakistan and South Africa. SA is still passed the group stage becoming unbeaten and group champions but Pakistan is about to kick out from the second stage of the Twenty20 World championships 2009. The Champions has been out from the first round but two others countries of Asia is still leading the season. With the first semi final Pak vs SA, it will be final that who are going the play the final that will be held on June 21, 2009 at Lords’ London.

South Africa has painful memories in limited over world tournament. It introduced with the limited over tournament in 1992 and reached to semifinals losing to England. In 1999, an agonizing defeat to Australia deprived to play in the final of WC Cricket. Similar, condition replied in 2007 in West Indies. During the inaugural world twenty20, in spite of host country and extra facilities they could not qualified for the Semifinals.

The opposition Pakistan has very positive sing, when their performances about to confuse and that time they played a good cricket all time. 1992 World Cup is the best example even this years qualification round too. In spite of top favorite, South Africa could get shock to Pakistan because it boosts the team with the come back of some crickets in from. Most important thing, the statistics of the previous matches turned positively. Especially, wicket-keeper-batsmen Kamran Akmal’s back to runs, Omar Gul, Shahid Afridi’s aggressive bowling could brought golden opportunity for the final this year too.

Nothing can neglect South Africa, who have played a eye-catching in the previous tours in Australia and the home series. All the players, attended in the Indian Premier League T20 tournament, could played positive cricket. The name strongly comes is Jacques Kallis and could brought out some bowlers who can remove all the faults in semifinal stage.

It hopes that the top favorite county could not do well in the special stages because of pressure and the opposition targets this point and able to get success. Now, time will say what the result comes?

The World Twenty20 semifinals become lifeless because India has been kicked out from this stage. A large number of cricket fans live in Indian and loves cricket more. I am not sure about the popularity over the Indian fans. Indian has a rivalry relation along with Pakistan all time. I think this effect will fell in the live telecast media. But I believe that they will not miss these kinds of world class tournaments. So, to watch the rest three matches, two semifinals and Final visit the websites and tune the tv channels.

India vs South Africa super-8 Twenty20 World Cup: Who will win?

South Africa v India of the super-8 (Super eight) series of Twenty (T20) is going to place on 20 September and according to this match the super- 8 will be end. Mentionable, the super-8 (Super eight) series started with the match between New Zealand v India. Anyway, what the result will come? Now, million of fans are waiting for the next match between India and South Africa.

By beating England in the super-8 (Super eight) series of Twenty (T20), India move up the expectation the million of Indian fans and turn over their concentrating to Twenty20 world Cup Championship because most of the cricket fans live in South Asia almost India. Absent of India form Twenty20 World Cup, is painful for all the fans. India beat England by 18 runs, in the same time; million of fans return their senses. In this match Indian won the toss and selected to bat first and scored 218. Most of the Indian batsmen came to the form, as a result India able to build the big scores of 218 runs. In this match G Gambhir, V Sehwag and Yuvraj Singh scored well and the success came easily. Here most important matter was Yuvraj Singh’s 58 runs. Now, he is the owner of the world record who took the quick fifty by 12 balls and took 36 runs in one over. Running behind these long scores, England did 200 runs. So it is clear that Indian bowlers did not do well in that match. If India want to go to semi-final then they must beat South Africa.

On the other hand, South Africa beat unbeaten New Zealand team by 6 wickets, running behind 153 runs. South Africa overcome qualified part with full of strength and unbeaten but they already has won two matches in the super- 8 part. We can thing that South Africa is qualified for the semi-final because their NRR is +0.766. Anyway, we all know about the South African strong bowling and batting line-up. So it is tough for any team to beat South Africa easily. In the first match South Africa beat England by 19 runs and in the second match they ruled New Zealand with a strong hand and won by 6 wickets. So it is clear that South Africa will try to reach semi-final unbeaten and try to hold the stability.

If India want to achieve the qualification for semi-final, there is no doubt that they have to beat South Africa. Here is a strong condition which is, if India could beat South Africa in a long distance they south Africa could out form the semi-final. So South Africa will try to beat India.

India could win along South Africa if they show a very good batting performance like today; Indian batsmen will have to show very good jobs. I think India’s performances along with England will help them to do well, especially mentally.

Super Eight (super-8, T20) Twenty20 World Cup: what are the key points of Australia Team for Semi-Final & Final?

Teams of Semi-Final and schedule

South Africa v India of the super-8 Twenty20

Australia will play semi-final & final of Twenty20 (T20)!! Is here any doubt? I think no doubt about it. In the first match Australian beat Bangladesh easily. On 18 September, Australia will take place along with New Zealand at Kingsmead in Durban.

During the first match of qualified Australian scored a very poor of 138 runs. On that day, the unexpected batting destruction of Australia did not help them to build a comfortable score. As a result they lost the match by 5 wickets remaining 1 ball.

On the second match along with England, England did not do more that 135 runs against disgusting bowling and Australia reached the target and lose two wickets.

Australia played the first Super-8 match along with Bangladesh and the Australian bowlers did not give any opportunity to make a big score and stopped a small score of 123 runs. To reach the target Australia had to lose only one wicket.

Here bowling was the key point of Australia. Australian pacer B Lee’s hat-tick was the main turning point for making a short score.

While wickets can fall quickly in this slog-fest form of the game with wild swings and catches on the boundary, all three of Lee’s victims were genuine bowler’s wickets.

The first was left-hander Shakib Al Hasan, who was caught behind attempting to cut a shortish ball too close to him. It was a length Lee bowled regularly to the Bangladeshis, who are not used to short-pitched fast bowling.

His second wicket was Mashrafe Mortaza bowled by a yorker and the third Alok Kapali leg before wicket to a full delivery.

Things became even more bizarre when Lee almost bowled Farhad Reza with another yorker from the next delivery but it was a no ball, which gives batsmen a free hit at the next ball in Twenty20 cricket.

Both of sides batting, bowling and fielding are well in the team so they could see the dream of winning the trophy.

Super Eight (super-8, T20) Twenty20 World Cup: what are the key points of Pakistan Team?

Will Pakistan play on T20 Semi-final & T20 final too of Tweny20? Pakistan is playing to play their first match of Super- 8 of Twenty20 (T20) along with Sri Lanka in Johannesburg. In the qualified round of Twenty20, Pakistan ruled Scotland with a strong hand as a result they won the match easily. Although India beat Pakistan by bowl out but their bowling and batting was amazing on the qualified round of Twenty20 (T20).

In the fast match along with Scotland, Pakistan scored an innings of 171 runs. Most of the batsman did well except Imran Nazir. On the second match that played with India and scored 141 runs as a result the math came tie. Pakistani batsmen tried to do well but against the devastating blowing of India, for this they had to stop at 141 runs.

Pakistan just has finished the match of Super- 8 of Twenty20 (T20) along with Sir Lanka and the result come that Pakistan has win by 33 runs. In this match Pakistan built a score of 189 runs. On the other hands Sri Lanka’s batsmen had to end their match rest of 33 runs. So it is clear that Pakistan’s bowling was also well.

After observing the last three matches you easily bring out the result that in this three matches Pakistan bowling side was too strong but the batting side did take any benefit during the match with India only.

Super Eight (super-8, T20) Twenty20 World Cup: what are the key points of Sri Lanka Team?

Super Eight (super-8, T20) Twenty20 World Cup: what are the key points of Sri Lanka Team?

Sri Lanka is the best team among the teams who are plying in Twenty (T20) World Cup 2007. After overcoming the qualified stage with full points, now Sri Lanka is going to play the super- 8 match with another strong team Pakistan. The match will take place at 17 Sep 2007 in New Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg.

In the first match, Sri Lanka did the highest score of 260 runs by 6 wickets. Sri Lanka’s key player Sanath Jayasuriya did 88 runs with 11 fours but no sixes. On the other had the captain M Jayawardene 65, K Sangakkara 30 (18, 4x5, 6x0) and the lower order batsman J Mubarak did very good score of 46 with 5 sixes and 3 fours. So these kinds of strong batting line could do any devastate in cricket history. Mentionable, that 260 runs was a record of Twenty20 (T20) history.

In the second match, Sri Lanka won the match by 7 wickets. On that day ST Jayasuriya did 61runs and M Jayawardene did 35 run (not out). Sri Lanka reached their target by 18.5 overs.

On the other hand New Zealand did not make a strong score for Sri Lanka’s strong bowling.

Other key point is the bowling line-up. Chaminda, Dilhara Fernando, Sanath Jayasuriya, L Malinga, andT Dilshan are in very good form and the fielding side of Sri Lanka is always better.

If you observe with as strong view it is clear that only Sri Lanka is a strong team of Twenty20 (T20) world cup. What do you think?

India vs Australia ODI Series: Match Schedule and Time Table from 29 September

In the first qualified round India vs Scotland match has stopped dew to rain. So they had to distribute the points equal. The next match was India versus Pakistan. In that match Pakistan won the toss and elected to field first despite of t the pitch reporters repots. As a result Pakistan had to pay for their off beam decision and beat by India.

In the beginning of the match it seemed that Pakistan took was right and they reduced four wickets at 37 runs, as a result Indian did not go over 142 runs despite of Indian’s strong batting line up.

In the second half when Pakistan came to batting then it proved. According to the pitch reporter the wicket came to the favor for the bowlers and Pakistan had to fall pressure to fill-up the target of 142 runs.

Some new agency published news that Pakistan want to remove their previous tradition. But luck did not favor them and they had to stop the match of 142 runs as a tie. As, the T20 is a new formatted word cup, they had to break the tie. As a Pakistan lost the match and India holds their tradition.

Both the teams have achieved their qualifications for the super eight. Although they will not face each other at the super eight but if they do well then they again would have to face the semi-final or final.

Twenty20 World Cup Championship 2007: India vs Pakistan, Sri Lanka vs Kenya and Australia vs England

On 14 September, three important matches of T20 Championship will hold on. Why I am saying important because the match India vs Pakistan always important, the match Sri Lanka vs Kenya important because they will have to play the next match with New Zealand and other is England vs Australia. There is no doubt that it is not important. ICC Champion Australia has lost the first match against Zimbabwe.

Teams of Semi-Final and schedule

I am not going to describe the match between India and Pakistan because you all know why it is important?

Secondly, the match between Sri Lanka and Kenya is important because Kenya lost the first match with New Zealand. If they loose the match along with Sri Lanka, they have to out from the tournament. On the other hand if Sri Lanka beat by Kenya the next match they have to play with New Zealand. As New Zealand is a strong team it should be strong to beat them. Then Sri Lanka will be out form the T20 Championship.

I think, there is no more examples I will have to be given that that match along with England is important for Australia. ICC champion Australia has been beat by Zimbabwe in the first match. If they loose the second match along with England then they have to go back.

We have to wait for that day and observe what the result come?

After a long time discussion between Prasar Bharati and ESPN Star Sports has come to a commitment that DD may share all the matches India plays, the semi-finals and the final, irrespective of whether India reaches the final stages. For this they have to pay a huge number of money.

The Economic Times has reported two different articles that Sharing feed of the Twenty20 format is not mandatory for the private broadcaster, unlike one-day matches and Tests telecasts. However, officials in the I&B ministry and Prasar Bharati had insisted that since the event was of national importance, the feed of the Twenty20 series too should be shared with Doordarshan.

Meanwhile, ESPN-Star Sports has sold the series at rates about 100% higher than even the 2007 World Cup, with rates averaging Rs 2.75-Rs 3 lakh per 10 seconds. “The format is new, and India’s performance has been encouraging, so advertisers are keen on the series,” a media source said.

For this commitment, millions of cricket lovers in non-cable households will be able to watch ICC’s Twenty20 World Cup kick off in South Africa on September 11.
