India Vs Australia Second T20 Match

Australian team after long marked the debut of a player as a captain. And what a fantastic debut match as a captain you have by defeating a team that won the first T20 world cup and also who hosts the T20 extravaganza tournament called IPL every year.

Australia won the first T20 world cup easily given some very explosive batting display by the top order and then bowlers did a great job defending the score of 171 runs. Man of the match for the first T20 match played yesterday MS Wade scored quick 72 runs out of 43 balls that include 5 boundaries and 3 sixes. Captain GJ Bailey for Aussie has a great day as captain and he utilized his resources very well.

For Indian it seems nothing is going to be fine overseas, they criticized experienced players and poor fielding in tests but the young legs of the team Indian in twenty twenty matches also failed to change the fortunes of team India. And I bet in case the team coach, captain and other people responsible for the selection on the playing eleven ; if plan to switch to wait and watch strategy as in test matches then Indian is going to loose the T20 series 2-0 as well.

Personally I feel India need to include experienced player like Irfan Pathan in place of Vinay or Parveen Kumar. Bowling of both these is looking ordinary. A losing team can’t afford to play with the same combination but team India has different opinions and I am not sure when we will see new faces in the Tests, ODIS and the T20’s. For me it’d be a nice approach if you can restrict the amount of same players playing in the entire formats to 30%. This way you can have more on bench talent in the team and in case of replacements because of injuries; out of form or players opt to be rested. A player performing well in T20s can easily be asked to get into the ODI matches and someone doing well in OIDS can be selected for test matches.

Let us see what is on the cards for team Indian on the occasion of second T20 match.

Champions League Twenty 20 - Champions league 2010

Well it was a great match every tournament would like to have as beginning match. Close encounter that in the end Lions managed to win. They defeated Mumbai Indians by 9 runs. I think Kevin Pollards wicket was the turning point of the match had he playeh one over more result of the match would have been different.

I still favor him being pushed little ahead in the batting order, a pinch solid hitter like him should be given chance to play more ball, I even don't mind him opening handful of matches as an experiment. Perhaps Mumbai Indian had moved him to bat earlier in the IPL final against they would not be the runners up they could have been the champions.

Tomorrow is a double masti day, you can watch Wayamba from Sri Lanka playing the hosts Warriors, and in the second match you have IPL champions Chennai Super Kings compete the Central Districts from New Zealand.

2 matches will be played to decide fate of three teams India, West Indies and Sri Lanka. Both India and West Indies will be playing in one match of the two. For West Indies victory will mean they will move to the next round, however even if India win they match first point os to win with a good margin and second one is that West Indies loose to Australia. Given the form of Australia it looks very rare they will loose to West Indies.

I forget to mention Sri Lanka for them Victory will make it to the semi finals of the T20 world cup however even if they loose but manage to score 144 runs they will knock India out of the tournament.

India have set a target of 164 but for Sri Lanka 144 will be enough to move to the next round. So what will team India play for a win of restrict Sri Lanks for a score less than 144.

Nothing I think because even doing so much hard work will get in vain if West Indies win the next match so Indian just pack up.

2. New Zealand 133 for 7 (Vettori 38, B McCullum 33) beat Pakistan 132 for 7 (Butt 67*, Butler 3-19) by one run

The New Zealand and Pakistan match was a close thriller and it reminded me of ICC T20 world cup final where India beat Pakistan in tha last ball of the tournament. Till the 4th ball of the last over Pakistan was looking strong and it seem they will win the match but last 2 balls changes the face of the match.
