Ishant Sharma provided the first breakthrough of the day as [...]

However, I have decided to have a look at the wildcards from both the squads.

Ricky Ponting’s previous record in India is a disaster for the Aussie. Ponting has scored a meagre 172 runs from 8 matches at a pathetic average of 12.28 with his best score being 60. His career average is at a terrific 58.37 from 119 matches. Yes, it is safe to say that he is the [...]

What a superb match and a sensational win to Team India. MS Dhoni’s boys did what previous Indian legends could never accomplish. This win in the best of three finals will rank as high as the Twenty20 World Cup. Massive celebrations at the end of the match clearly indicated the emotions that the Indians were [...]

It has been a busy few days and I haven’t had the time to write much on my blog especially with my trip to India coming up in a couple of weeks time. What a match this was. India thoroughly deserved a win here after they were denied one at the SCG. Two changes [...]
