Ronaldinho is for Brazil and Brazil is in Olympics 2008. Olympics 2008 is in China now. The most popular football/Soccer teams in the world, Brazil, which has secured two victories against Belgium and New Zealand. They have to face with the host China on Wed Aug 13 at the local time 19:45. Brazil beat New Zealand by 5-0 and Belgium 1-0. He is leading the Brazil Team for Olympics 2008 as a Captain. Although he was some inactive during the match against Belgium but was totally confidence against New Zealand and secured 2 goal himself.

His fitness levels should also be improving after being on the field for the full 90 minutes against Belgium and the Kiwis. His fitness -- or lack of it -- had concerned FC Barcelona last season. Although he was sidelined for long spells with injuries, there was speculation that he was out late at night clubs too often and that was affecting his condition.

Ronaldinho was in rest for his injury but now he has come round and giving full efforts for his team in the ongoing Olympics 2008. Not only his team but also his club is happy for his returns.

There is not doubt that China is not a strong football/soccer team in the world. It could be easy for Brazil to beat.

India vs Sri Lanka 2nd Test: Batting and V Sehwag’s century

India started very well in the first innings of second Test in Galle. At the end of the day they scored total 214 runs by losing four wickets. With the opening batsmen G Gambhir and V Sehwag’s skillful batting sent India to 151 runs without losing wicket. Due to rain and wet gourd the match stared again after long time gap and India lost their valuable four wickets in as short time at the end of the day. This is very crucial stars for Sri Lanka. They all leave the field with full of confidence.
I have quote these lines form southasiafair.com where the writer praise V Sehwag so much for his century and leading the Indian team in the rainy day of Test Cricket history. In the opening partnership with Gautam Gambhir, Virender Sehwag added 167 runs which made the ground of Indian innings. Though the later batsmen could not carry on winning momentum thanks to a short collapse in the middle order which saw four Indian batsmen going back to the pavilion within 11 runs, Virender Sehwag still remains at the crease as a constant threat for the Sri Lankan bowlers. He is the only hope for Indian team now.
It seems that India is following the last day of the first Test match when India was beat seriously at the SSC Play Ground. But the only century holders of Indian team and most dependable batsman V Sehwag is still unbeaten VVS Luxman is assist and also will come to the field tomorrow. So enjoy the match between India vs Sri Lanka match form Galle Stadium, Sri Lanka.
