India vs Australia 20 20 match

After lossing 7 matches series to Australia by 4 - 2 (One match was draw) the Twenty twenty world champion India must be looking forward to defeat the Champs on one day international cricket Australia. On the other hand Aussies havs already shown there keenness to play world 20 20 champions India also Australia would like to take revenge on defeat in twenty twenty world cup by beating India today.

Indiand must be on a positive frmae of mind after beatin Australia in last one day match though previous one was also closer one. India lost the series coz of there battign line batsmen really put India on a back track every time only Robin Uthaapa and little master Sachin Tendulkar batted well in te series with good performance was Saurav Ganguly in few mathces also.

So all the best team India for twenty twenty match. Hope 20 20 world champion will play as world champions.

India vs Australia third one day of Future cup

Its 3:36 AM IST and few hours are left for another cricker match between India and Australia. So for first match ws drawn due to rain Australia posted a huge total in that match and second match India lost by 84 runs very poor performance by 20 - 20 world cup champions was shown in that match. Now am keeping my fingures corssed fo rtodays match, hopefully India wil wini this match as far as lastest upadtes are concerned Aussie captain Ricky pointing will be back in this match ant I think there wil be hardly any change in Indian team. All I wish is India wins the toss elect ot bat first post a good total as the batting line of India boost of and bowlers defend tha total.

All the very best to the Indian team.

Intresting centuries in test cricket : ICCcricket,.blogspot.com

Imagine the days play is about to end and you are approaching your century, double century, triple century or even 400 as Brian Lara scores against England. What if you are at the score of 99 or 199 or 299 and you are facing the last ball of the day, but wud be in your mind reach your century by hitting tha last ball of the day or keep your calm and face the century feat next mo
rning and end the days play at threshold of the century.

Below is the list of batsmen who ended the the day on such a threshold:

Glenn Turner v Australia, Christchurch, 1974
New Zealand backed up disciplined bowling with outstanding fielding and dismissed Australia for 223 in the first innings. How they fared with the bat largely depended on Turner, who wasn't at his most fluent just then. He played and missed regularly against Max Walker and Geoff Dymock but hung around to end the second day on 99. He struggled to reach his fourth Test hundred the next morning and played out 34 deliveries in all on 99, which contributed to his overall strike-rate of 38. Turner was out soon after his century but his 101 had given New Zealand a 32-run lead. Australia set a target of 228 and it was due to another gritty Turner hundred in the second innings - 110 not out off 355 balls - that New Zealand notched up their first Test win against Australia, by five wickets.

Greg Chappell v England, Melbourne, 1980
Graham Gooch was approaching a hundred with the tea interval looming. In the final over before the break he was run out, attempting a single that would have taken him into tea on a hundred. England proceeded to collapse from 170 for 1 to 306 all out, their highest total of the series. Australia made a strong reply and were 399 for 5 at stumps on the third day. Greg Chappell ended the day on 99 not out, which made him the first, and only, person in Tests to wait through the whole of a rest day for his century. He reached his hundred off the third ball of the fourth day and finished with 114 in 288 minutes during which he struggled with a stomach upset and a leg injury. Ian Botham's rearguard century in the second innings helped set a target of 103 but it was never going to challenge Australia. The Chappell brothers were in the middle when the winning runs were scored, with Greg making 40 off 43 balls.

Gerry Gomez v India, Delhi, 1948

West Indies were in early trouble after deciding to bat. They had lost three wickets for 27 runs before Clyde Walcott and Gomez began the recovery. Walcott powered to his hundred and ended the day on 152, while Gomez remained unbeaten on 99. He reached his hundred the next day but didn't convert it into a big one: he was stumped minutes after Walcott was run out. The pair, however, had added 267, a West Indies record for any wicket. Gomez's century was his maiden Test hundred, and since then only Turner (in a different Test to the one above) and Graeme Hick have been not out overnight on 99 during their first Test centuries. The pitch had become easier to bat on and Everton Weekes and Robert Christiani scored tons as well. West Indies piled up 631 in the first innings but two days was not enough time for them to bowl India out twice. The match was drawn with India 220 for 6 in the follow on.

Javed Miandad v England, Edgbaston, 1992
Miandad was in the nineties at the end of the day on a record six occasions and he went on to score a century five times, including two double-hundreds. Only once did he end the day on 99 - at Edgbaston in 1992. The first day had been washed out and England managed to bowl only two balls after choosing to field in damp conditions on the second before the light was offered to the batsmen. Pakistan made a solid start on the third day but the run glut began when Miandad and Salim Malik got together. They added 322 for the fourth wicket and Miandad extended his overnight 99 to 153 on the fourth day before declaring on 446 for 4. England's batsmen also cashed in, and once the follow-on was avoided a draw was the only possible conclusion.

Rahul Dravid v Australia, Adelaide, 2003
The game seemed up for India after Australia had scored 556 by the second afternoon and even more so after India were reduced to 85 for 4 in reply. Then Dravid and VVS Laxman began to consolidate, and once they had settled in, raked in the runs. They became only the third pair in Test cricket - after Don Bradman and Bill Ponsford, and Graeme Smith and Herschelle Gibbs - to share two triple-century stands. In Kolkata in 2001, Laxman had scored the double and it was Dravid's turn in Adelaide. He ended the third day on 199 - only the second batsman to do so after Marvan Atapattu - and hit a boundary off the first ball of the fourth to reach his double-hundred. Dravid's 233 helped keep Australia's lead down to 33, and a remarkable bowling performance by Ajit Agarkar set up a four-wicket win for India.
