Brazil vs Italy 2009: Confederations Cup Previews

Knockout stage fixture is filled with the two teams Spain and South Africa from Group A. But the others box is still blank that will be filled after the match between Brazil vs World Champion Italy and United State vs Egypt. The standing table of group is very unstable which could be changes any time. It is possible for Italy to kick out from this tournament. Italy’s 3-1 victory over USA pushed them up the point table. There are two options to be qualified for the two teams. No way for Italy and Egypt to beat the oppositions. Though it is tough for Italy to beat Brazil, it would be easy for Egypt to beat USA because of previous performance.

Brazil is leading the top position by securing two consequent wins in the ongoing FIFA Confederation Cup 2009 tournament. Brazil’s quality players and strong confidence will inspire them to take the win over the World Champions. We all have to remind that they are one of the top favorite listed nations in the world football ever. Though they have been appeared without some top listed players this season, it will not be easy to beat them.

They took on Egypt and U.S. in the previous two matches and won in the both matches. The match against Egypt they have to felt huge competition but the penalty goal brought them victory and got an easy wins over USA of 3-0 goals

Setanta Sports fails to get rights 46 games of Premier League

English Premier League has terminated the deal along with Irish broadcaster Setanta Sports because it has failed to pay a £30million payment deal for 46 matches. Although it has a tie for with the Premier League to show 23 matches live from 2010 to 2013. In the bid it has won the right to show another 46 matches. Now, those matches broadcast will go to Sky and ESPN by dividing in to two sections. Access Industries, New York, is trying to take the whole contort of Setanta Sports.

Teamtalk

As for Setanta, the disaster which has been looming for several weeks finally struck after efforts to woo US tycoon Len Blavatnik's Access Industries ended in failure - due mainly to concerns over a £50million tax bill due to be paid by the broadcaster.

Setanta Sports is now passing financial problem that is why they has to terminate the tie with Premier League. It has round 1.2m subscribers who will be deprived to watch the premier league games. Setanta still has TV rights for the FA Cup, World Cup qualifiers, Premier League, Scottish Premier League, and the Blue Square Conference.

Bollywood hottest pairs should get married!

I am confused about the survey and the results because it is tough to answer about this thing. I want to give an example that did anyone think that Abhishek-Aishwarya will be successful without taking hands from their families. After shooting ‘Guru’ Abhishek proposed Aishwarya. It is possible to find out many couple got success by married and you can get thousand of couple did not get success (love and romance only).

Shahid Kapoor had as relationship along with Kareena Kapoor but broke up. Later, a relationship progressed with Priyanka. After a survey Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapoor won as hottest bollywood pair. They got 31% vote from audience. Priyanka chopra and shahid Kapoor acted first film is ‘Kaminey’. In the film Shahid Kapoor acted in double role. The film will be release on August in 2009.

All know the present relationship of Salman-Katrina but it got the second highest points. I am doubtful about their success. Salman Khan Katrina Kaif is holding the second position as a hottest pair of Bollywood. This couple has got 24% vote. Few days ago, their relation has been broken. As a pair Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif acted in 3 films. Their first film was ‘Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya?’ 2^nd film was Partner and 3^rd ‘Yuvvraaj’. Partner was their most successful film.

I found news that John-Bipasha’s engagement has been finished with the consent of their families. It is very positive for them to be successful because there is no rumor on the bollywood film industry about them. Bipasha Basu and John Abraham have third position. They got 21% vote. In 2008 John Abraham became 1st Indian and 7th sexiest man of the world. Bipasha Basu won the title "Sexiest Woman in Asia" in 2005 and 2007.

Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan have gotten 16% vote and they have 4th position in hottest couple in bollywood. In 2004 Kareena Kapoor made relation with shahid Kapoor after 3 years she has broken relation and build up realation with Saif Ali Khan. By perusing 8% vote has kept them (Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor) in 5th Position.

Sri Lanka vs Pakistan final 2009: World Twenty20 at Lord’s

Tillakaratne Dilshan’s responsible batting and Mathews’ three wickets in the first over and other bowlers, such as M Muralitharan and BAW Mendis aggressive bowling in the middle time of the innings supported strongly. In spite of danger man CH Gayle’s not out Sri Lanka bid the opposite side’s batsmen 14 balls left and achieved the qualification to take on runner-up Pakistan in the final match at Lord's in London.

By beating, top favorite South Africa, Pakistan qualified for the final of second season. Gathering two very simple win, it qualified for the semi-finals and proved their capabilities beating South Africa.

Pakistan has a very strong bowling line-up this could change the result any time. I want to explain strongly that only for bowling them able to beat the Smith’s men. Now, Pak men are very stable in their mental side. Despite of security reason, no cricket nation visits them in the year 2009. Even they had to keep away from the T20 formatted Indian Premier League. In spite of such barrier, Pakistan could able to show their best performances.

T Dilshan, Twenty20: Most runs and highest Individual run

The second season of World Twenty20 is passing very hard. The teams that was in the top favorite, has been kicked out from this season. Pakistan, who did not play any single tournament this year except the match along with Australia in Dubai, will play the final second time. No doubt that is tough to calculate that which teams are favorite in this super-limited over match. But, Lankan batsman T Dilshan’s performances explained that he could present something different in this season.

Yes, he is the most runs achiever and highest individuals till semi-finals. Just before the semi-final along with West Indies, he overtakes G Gambhir and achieves the title of most run taker. From 11 matches an able to score 382 run. To reach here he had to store 3 half-centuries and hits 48 boundaries and 7 sixes.

In the same match he touches another record of highest individual runs of the year 2009 world tournament. T Dilshan scored 96 runs (not out) from 57 balls during the semi-final against West Indies in 2009. CH Gayle holds the highest individuals record holders and only century from his bat in 2007 world Twenty20 and this year he scored 88 runs from 50 balls.

In the last World Twenty20 Matthew Hayden scored 265 runs in 2007. Tillakaratne Dilshan overtakes the record and scores 317 runs. It is sure that he will be the most run record holder this year, if they could not be qualified for the final.
