It was a Thursday afternoon and the crowd was packed at Sardar Patel Stadium, backing their team in the numbers. Australian Captain Ricky Ponting won the match and elected to bat, probably due to the dry pitch and India’s history of chasing targets. India had brought Raina into the side to strengthen their middle order in place of Yusuf Pathan.

Australian batsmen Haddin and Watson began the proceedings. It was a watchful start. Each team seemed to have done their homework. Ashwin, who had played well in the previous game, was brought in early into the attack. The faith of the captain on him paid off when he took the first wicket, of Watson. Watson attempted to play an offensive stroke, misjudged the ball, which went on to hit his off stump.

Ponting, who had scored only 100 runs in his past 5 innings, walked in next. Haddin, Ponting having spent time on the pitch, was looking quite comfortable and provided Ponting time to settle in. They built a moderate partnership and were starting to look dangerous at 100/1 by the end of the 20th over, when Yuvraj Singh got back in action once again, this time with the ball. He took Haddin’s wicket and the runs dried up post that.

Indian spinners then made the Australian batsmen toil for their runs. Also, the fall of wicket at regular intervals kept breaking any momentum being built.

The highlight of the match was Ricky Ponting, who looked like a man on a mission. He silenced his critics with his gameplay, finely crafting 104 of 113 balls. This helped Australia get to a reasonable total of 260. Among the Indian bowlers Singh, Ashwin and Khan took two wickets each. Zaheer Khan became second leading wicket taker in the tournament with this game.

It was a fifty-fifty situation when the next innings began, with Tendulkar and Sehwag walking in to the crease. The atmosphere was electrifying, with the crowds roaring to the shots played by the batsmen. Australia was up to its old tricks again, using the short ball against the Indian batsmen. And the tricks paid dividends too, with Sehwag getting caught while trying to pull a bouncer. The little master took responsibility on his shoulders to ride his team through built a partnership with Gambhir. Gambhir looked shaky initially but soon gained confidence.

The match seemed to be tilting in India’s favour, when Tait bowled a smooth delivery tricking Tendulkar, who nicked it on its way to the keeper. Tendulkar, however, had done some damage till thenand also reached 18,000 runs and 94th ODI half-century in the process. Post Tendulkar’s dismissal, Kohli and Gambhir continued the momentum, with Kohli playing a cameo innings of 24 runs.

A number of partnerships in the middle order helped India take control of the game And it was not until the freak run-out of Gambhir that the match turned back in favour of the Aussies. Ricky Ponting used all the tricks in his bag to build pressure on the Indians and Lee dismissed MS Dhoni next, bringing the Indians down to 5. Was this the beginning of another collapse?

With still 70 runs left to get and 12 overs in hand for India, it could have been anyone’s game at that point of time And it was uptoYuvraj Singh and Raina to set things straight for their team. Yuvraj was back for his side as he had been in earlier matches in the tournament. He went on to score his 3rd half-century of the tournament. Raina too showed that the selectors had made the right choice by selecting him. Both the batsmen played a number of splendid shots without taking many risks. No Australian bowler was able to pose a serious challenge to the the two beyond a period of time. Australia seemed gravely in need of another Shane Warne.

Yuvraj finally wrapped things up for India, booking a place for his team in the semi-finals against Pakistan on Wednesday, March 30 2011. The Men in blue were jubilant about defeating Australia- a kind of retribution against the defeats they have suffered at the hands of Australia prior.

Match Summary:

India 261(Y.Singh 57, Tendulkar 53, D Hussey 1-19) by 5wickets beat Australia 260 (Ponting 104, Haddin 53, Y.Singh 2-44) .

Man of the Match: Yuvraj Singh

India took on West Indies at the MA Chidambaram stadium before a packed capacity crowd. The colour of Holi was in the air, a perfect occasion for the Blues to take on the Reds, as it went along with the festive spirit. It was also a big day for Ashwin who was playing his first World Cup game at his home stadium.

Dhoni won the toss and elected to bat. Dhoni and co. had been working hard in the nets to pull this one through. India had not won against a major team in the tournament so far. And it was a good opportunity for the country too, as it was playing a team with some of its key players such as Chris Gaye and Kemar Roach out with injuries.

Ravi Rampaul gave the Indians something to think about, by taking the openers out cheaply. It seemed the beginning of another collapse, when the in-form batsman Yuvraj Singh walked in. He, along with Virat Kohli, brought some stability to the situation. The two added more than 100 runs together.

The stage was being set for India to post a massive total to the Windies. Rampaul provided the breakthrough once again. This time he took the wicket of Virat Kohli who had been looking impressive at the pitch so far. India still was at a comfortable position till then, with almost 20 overs to play and well set in batsmen on the crease.

The ‘collapsing batting order’ syndrome which India had caught over the tournament continued, with no one being able to form a partnership with Yuvraj for a long period of time. Rampaul terrorised the batsmen throughout the evening. He had scalped half the side by the end of it, also his career best.

India’s tumble continued till the end. The last batting powerplay was  proving to be a curse for Dhoni and his men. The last 4 overs of the innings added just 30 runs at the total at the loss of 4 wickets. Finally, thanks to a yet another match winning innings from the Indian Vice Captain Yuvraj Singh (113), West Indies was set a target of 268 to chase — a fairly achievable target, compared to the games so far in the tournament.

West Indies started off well, with a quick partnership between Devon Smith and Kirk Edwards, and Devon Smith and Darren Bravo. The Indian pace attack seemed to lack the extra punch that would bring wickets. Ravichandran Ashwin who had to dig his way into team did show that he was cut out for the main stage. Not only did he take up the challenge given by the captain to bowl the new ball but he also picked the wicket of Edwards, conceding only 18 runs.

West Indies, though losing wickets at regular intervals, was going along at a moderate pace, causing much anxiety in the Indian dressing room. Devon Smith had scored a half century with Sarwan on the other side, also looking good. The wicket of Devon Smith proved to be the turning point of the game. Zaheer Khan was brought in for his 2nd spell. He produced a slow full-length delivery, making the ball swing reverse, which beat Smith and knocked his stumps over.

Devon had been looking dangerous at that point of time having already scored 81 runs. Post this wicket, the dynamics of the game changed completely. Wickets kept on falling. The other set batsman Ramnaresh Sarwan also fell shortly, putting more pressure on the tourists.

Yuvraj’s great form continued, with him picking 2 wickets as well. Zaheer was the pick of the bowlers for the Indians. He picked 3 wickets at the cost of only 23 runs. West Indies was not able to get back in the game post that. They was all bowled out for 188 runs in the 43rd over.

With the quarterfinals next, both the teams have one last break to get things right. India has been experimenting with its team combinations. Hope it gets things right next time. India is slated to play Australia in their quarterfinal encounter while West Indies would be taking on neighbours Pakistan.

Match Summary:

India 268 (Singh 111,Kohli 59, Rampaul 5-53) beat West Indies 188 (Smith 81, Sarwan 39, Zaheer 3-23) by 80 runs

Man of Match: Yuvraj Singh

Nagpur: The stage was set in Nagpur for one of the most competitive ties in the world cup so far. Host India (ICC ODI ranking 2) took on South Africa (ICC ODI ranking 3) as part of the group B fixture. Till now the two teams have played against each other in the world cup twice and both the times the result had been in favour of the Proteas.

Up until the match, India had been sitting pretty at the top of the table, though all its wins had come against associate member teams. South Africa, on the other hand, were fourth on the table and were under intense competition from Bangladesh who were behind only because of the net run rate.India won the toss and elected to bat. The Indian spectators walked in to a packed crowd anticipating an entertainment-filled thriller for the weekend. And that is exactly what Sehwag and Tendulkar gave them. They dismantled and almost ridiculed each bowler of the Proteas bowling attack, leaving the South African captain Graeme Smith bemused and confused.

Smith tried every bowler he had to stop this Indian tornado. India had already notched 142 runs when F du Plessis finally gave the Proteas some relief by dismissing Sehwag (73, 66b, 4×12, 6×0). After Sehwag, who had played a supremely classy and attacking innings, Sachin Tendulkar kept the momentum going, and soon Gambhir joined the party. The master blaster reached yet another ton, his second of the world cup.

India looked at posting a mammoth total, and virtually finishing the game by the innings play. They were 260 runs at the loss of one wicket, with 10 overs in hand. A team couldn’t have asked a better start from its openers. But what followed was chaos! Dale Steyn, who had been bruised in his first spell, went like a battering ram and took out half of the Indian batting side in a matter of few overs. The Indian team crashed faster than any company on a Dalal street trading day. Captain MS Dhoni tried to bring order into things but his efforts could not stop his team from getting bowled at 296, just 28 runs ahead of what had presented a completely different picture. The initially discouraged Proteas went into the dressing room with a match on their hands.

At the end of the innings, Pat Sympcox was asked what the chances of his team winning this one were. He merely grinned and said the average score on the ground was 319 and 296 still was a competitive total,  and that it would require sincere batting from the Proteas to bag the two points.

South African batsmen gave exactly what the doctor ordered. Hashim Amla seemed in a fine nick, and his record against the Indians so far compliments this one. He was looking dangerous even before Dhoni latched on to a top edge off of Amla’s bat. The middle order of South Africa delivered; this is probably what differentiated the two sides at the end of the day. Kallis had built a partnership with Amla and post his wicket continued playing well. Though the Proteas were losing wickets at regular intervals, they did not lose their cool and had the run-rate in control throughout the game.

Turbanator Harbajan Singh revived Indian hopes in the 40th over, taking out two of the set-in batsmen, AB de Villiers and Duminy, with the help of Captain Dhoni, giving the visitors a target of 58 more to get from 42 deliveries. The match got incredibly close as overs of dot balls and run scoring passed by. The last over went on to decide the fate of the match. South Africa were required to score 13 runs of the last over. There was much debate over who should bowl the last over. Nonetheless, it was Ashish Nehra. A four! and a six! off Nehra’s first few balls by Peterson sealed the game for South Africa.

South Africa strengthened its group position with this game. With minnows to play in the rest of its games, it might even go on to top the table by the end of the group matches. India has lost another close one. Though still on top of the table, much improvement is required from the team. India will need to fire as one cohesive unit if it wants to make it to the final 4.

Match Summary:

South Africa 300 (Kallis 69, Amla 61, Singh 3-53) beat India 296 (Tendulkar 111, Sehwag 73, Steyn 5-50) by 3 wickets.

Man of the Match: Dale Steyn

Delhi: It was a cool afternoon at the Ferozeshah Kotla stadium with temperatures at around 21 degrees Celsius. Netherlands took on hosts India in the fourth game of their ICC World Cup journey. The men in orange seemed energetic before taking on India, who were yet unbeaten in the tournament. Though the Dutch had lost all of their previous games, a lot of positives too had been seen, reflecting an improvement in the quality of cricket being played in Netherlands. For the Indians, it was their last chance to get the lineup right, as the matches post this would be much more competitive. India brought in Ashish Nehra into the team to shuffle the bowling attack, replacing Munaf Patel.

Netherlands captain won the toss and elected to bat first, as the pitch conditions showed that the surface would dry up during the course of the match and would make it difficult for the side batting second. They got to the start they were looking for, with openers being able to survive the new ball well. In fact, it was the best opening partnership Netherlands had had in the world cup so far.

The first to fall was Szwarczynski, the Australian under-19 player who now plays for the Dutch. He was bowled by a delivery that keeps straight by youngster Piyush Chawla. This was good for the Chawla, who had not been having such a great tournament until then, being scored for a lot of runs. The other opener, Barresit, too, fell shortly. Netherlands were then doing fine with a score of 80/2 at the end of 20 overs. The momentum built by the openers, however, was not continued by the middle order. Some runouts and good bowling got the Dutch struggling at 127/7 by the end of the 35th over. Wicket takers among the bowlers were Zaheer Khan, Ashish Nehra and Yuvraj Singh.

Dutch captain PW Borren took the responsibility of steering his side to a respectable total and tried to build a partnership with pacer Mudassar Bukhari. They hit 4 sixes and 4 fours, creating quite a hiccup in what seemed to be a perfect day for the Indian bowlers. The spinners, especially, got a hammering in the end. This didn’t last long, however, with Zaheer scalping the two. The Dutch were bowled out in the 46th over, posting a target of 190.

In the second innings, the Indian openers gave the crowd a run fiesta in the start. One of the Dutch bowlers, Doeschate went for as many as 23 runs in his first two overs. It looked like a one-sided game, with India reaching 50 runs by the 6th over itself. That wasn’t to stay the case though, with wickets falling in quick succession thereafter. Yusuf Pathan was sent in early after his performance against Ireland the other day but failed, getting out to the same bowler who took out the openers – Seelaar. India was 100/4, with Dutch having a real chance to bring about another upset in this tournament.

The middle order saved the day yet again for India. Yuvraj Singh who had scored two 50s in the world cup so far looked far more watchful in his approach. This was unlike the attacking Yuvraj we are used to. Captain MS Dhoni partnered him and they steered the side to victory by the 36th over.

With this match, India strengthened its position at the top of the table. It will be interesting to see if they are able to maintain this position in the future. Yuvraj Singh was awarded the Man of the Match award for his 50 runs and 2-43 bowing spell. Borren, the Dutch captain, commented post the match that he was happy with how the boys played today. This would give them confidence to play better in the remaining matches.

Match Summary:

India 191/5 (Yuvraj Singh 51, Virender Sehwag 39, Pieter Seelaar 3-53) beat (Netherlands 189/10 ( Peter Borren 38, Tom Cooper 29, Zaheer Khan 3-20, Yuraj Singh 2-43 ) by 5 wickets

Man of the Match: Yuvraj Singh

With the abandonment of Sunday’s ODI, the second in the three-match series, Australia returned home without winning a single game in their tour of India. They had lost the two-match Test series 0-2 before the ODI series. The last time they experienced something similar in India was on their tour in 2008-09 where they drew the tour game and lost the Tests 0-2.

The first ODI in Kochi was also washed out in similar circumstances. It was an unfortunate result for the locals who had turned up at the stadium. The series was effectively reduced to a solitary game in Visakhapatnam on October 20, where India beat Australia by five wickets.

Umpires Billy Bowden and Amish Saheba made two inspections of the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium ground at 11 am and 12:15 pm before deciding to abandon the match because of the wet conditions in the outfield that persisted despite the sun shining brightly. In between these two inspections rival skippers Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Michael Clarke also came out to go around the outfield and were seen having a long discussion with the umpires.

The wicket looked in perfect condition but the seepage of rain water through the covers left the outfield damp and slippery.

The match was later called off without a ball being bowled, thus making it the second time it has happened at this venue.

Chasing a steep target of 290, India got off to a disastrous start by losing debutant Shikhar Dhawan in the very first over for a second ball duck when he was clean bowled by Australian pace bowler Clint McKay.

Fellow opener Murali Vijay soon followed him back to the pavilion when he edged a McKay delivery to wicket-keeper Tim Paine. Vijay was looking solid, but poor shot selection led to his downfall for 15 from 18 balls.

However, Virat Kohli (118 runs off 121 balls) altered the entire complexion of the match with a flawless century as he shared two crucial partnerships with Yuvraj Singh (58 runs off 87 balls) and Suresh Raina (71 runs off 47 balls) to put India on course for a magnificent win.

After missing the Test series against Australia, Yuvraj answered his critics in style by hitting a classy 58 off 87 balls which included five boundaries.

Young Suresh Raina again proved his mettle by finishing things off with a brilliant knock of 71 for just 47 balls. He thrashed the bowlers all over the ground and hit nine boundaries and one huge six in his innings.

Loss of Kohli and skipper MS Dhoni in quick succession created some panic for a while, however Raina steadied the nerves. Raina, along with Saurabh Tiwary, helped India win the match by five wickets and take an unassailable 1-0 lead in three match series.

Earlier, Australia too had started slowly before they consolidated, courtesy a fine 144-run partnership between Michael Clarke and Michael Hussey, to 205 for 3 from 45 overs, before exploding in the death overs. Stand-in skipper Michael Clarke returned to form with his fifth century to help Australia post a challenging 289 for three.

The opening duo of Shaun Marsh (0) and Tim Paine (9) was evicted by Ashish Nehra, but Clarke (111 not out from 138 balls with 7 fours and 1 six) and Hussey (69) steadied the ship, putting on 144 runs together.

Some impressive batting by vice-captain Cameron White (89 from 49 balls with 6 fours and six overboundaries) spurred the Aussie scoring as they scored 49 runs in the five overs of batting powerplay between 43rd and 47th overs.

Both White and Clarke were in a rampaging mood. Nehra, who had an impressive first spell of 4-1-3-2 had his figures destroyed towards the end as he returned with 57 runs from his 10 overs.

The Australians scored 114 in the last 10 overs, something that speaks highly of Clarke’s innings that had the shades of recovery and then dominance. Put into bat, Australia were clearly under pressure as the opening duo of Marsh and Paine was dismissed early by Nehra in an impressive first spell.

The experienced duo of the new-look Australia side, Skipper Clarke and Hussey did the repair work, building their innings brick by brick. In the end, Cameron White’s big hitting helped Australia in reaching a fighting total of 289.

Match report
India 292 for 5 (Kohli 118, Raina 71*, Yuvraj 58) beat Australia 289 for 3 (Clarke 111*, White 89*, Hussey 69) by five wickets

The Baroda fast bowler was also a member of the squad for the preceding three-Test series against Sri Lanka bur did not get to play any of the match.

“Munaf Patel is joining the Indian team in Sri Lanka as an additional member of the squad. He will reach Dambulla tomorrow,” said BCCI secretary N Srinivasan in a media release today.

The 27-year-old bowler played the last of his 43 ODIs against Australia at Guwahati in November, 2009. He has been given a chance to resume his stop-start career in which he has taken 47 wickets at just under 33.

The Indian team, led by Mahendra Singh Dhoni, started its campaign on a poor note two days ago by crashing to a massive 200-run defeat against New Zealand at Dambulla.

The event runs up to August 28 with all the matches to be played at the same venue.

India squad: 1. Mahendra Singh Dhoni (captain), 2. Virender Sehwag, 3. Suresh Raina, 4. Virat Kohli, 5. Dinesh Karthik, 6. Yuvraj Singh, 7. Rohit Sharma, 8. Saurabh Tiwary, 9. Ravindra Jadeja, 10. Ashish Nehra, 11. Praveen Kumar, 12. Pragyan Ojha, 13. R Ashwin, 14. Abhimanyu Mithun, 15. Ishant Sharma, 16. Munaf Patel.

Sangakkara last month questioned the system and said it was not fair as the ICC had not devised a proper home-and-away format in its Future Tour Programme, hinting that Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s men had not won series abroad against Sri Lanka, Australia and South Africa.

Muralitharan, who retired last month as Test cricket’s highest wicket taker, had a completely different view on the system and said it was not necessary for a team to beat all other sides on tours before becoming number one.

“India deserve to be the number one Test side because they have won a lot of matches. They won against Australia in Australia, they won against England in England and they drew the recent series in Sri Lanka 1-1,” he told reporters on the eve of the launch of Champions League Twenty20 here.

“You can’t criticise by saying that the point system is not good. That means you are trying to find fault with everyone. When some team deserves credit it should be given, you have to be honest,” Muralitharan said. “I think you can’t justify by saying that you have to win home and away and then only you can be the number one. When Australia was the number one Test side, they had lost a series against us in Sri Lanka. Only in 2004, Australia won a series against us in Sri Lanka. I think the ICC have got a system in place and they have done it to the best of their ability. It is fair enough and whoever is number one under this, they deserve it. No system can be perfect. There are nine Test playing countries and if you try to play home and away matches by each country, it will take five-six years to rotate and it is impractical.”

Muralitharan refused to dwell much on his recent attack on former Indian captain and his untiring critic Bishen Singh Bedi and said, “I don’t care what the reaction is from other people” after his outburst.

“Whatever I have said, I have said. That’s it,” he replied when asked if he had planned the verbal attack on Bedi.

Asked if he was surprised by the criticism from former Indian cricketers like Erapalli Prasanna and Maninder Singh for his criticism of Bedi, he said, “I don’t care what anybody says. Whatever I have said is said. Whether they take it or not I don’t care.”

Muralitharan retired from Test cricket at 37 and he feels age should not be a criteria in judging an athlete.

“I don’t think age should not be the criteria as long as you are fit. Performance is the criteria. Sachin Tendulkar is 37 and he is getting a century, double hundred and everything. I also took lots of wickets before retiring. Experience is the advantage in Test cricket, though there should be balance. A mixture of youth and experience is ideal,” he said.

Muralitharan said Harbhajan Singh should not be put under undue pressure for failing to perform in the recent Sri Lanka Test series and young tweakers like Pragyan Ojha and Amit Mishra should be given some time to settle down.

“You cannot take the performance of only one tournament to judge Harbhajan. He is going through a rough patch. Before the last two Tests, he took wickets against us in Mumbai. He is a great bowler and he will come back and take wickets. The other spinners, Ojha, Mishra and even R Ashwin, are good bowlers. It is very hard to criticise them from one or two matches. You can’t compare them with Anil Kumble who is a legend. Give some time to them and with experience they will do well,” he said.

He also advised Dhoni not to use Virender Sehwag’s part-time spin excessively in Test cricket as it may affect the dashing opener’s batting. “If Sehwag is used more, his batting may come down, as it is hard to bowl and score. If Sehwag is used more in Test cricket as a slow bowler, it may affect his batting. It is very hard to be a bowler in Test cricket.”

Muralitharan also revealed that he has been told by Sri Lankan Cricket Chairman of selectors Aravinda de Silva to prepare for the one-day tour of Australia in November.

The spin wizard would also play another three years in the Indian Premier League.

“I have been told by Aravinda to be prepared for the ODI tour of Australia. I have not stopped training and going to the gym. I will not change my earlier routine and will train my hardest. Everyday I bowl and bat with whatever facilities I am getting in Sri Lanka. I want to play the next three years of IPL before retiring totally from cricket. So I have to practice, and definitely I would like to play in England or some other place,” he said.

He said he gave up Test cricket to play a little longer in the two formats of the game and vacate a seat for the youngsters.

“I have had enough and I have nothing to achieve anymore. So I took up the challenge of taking eight wickets in my last Test (against India in Galle last month). Everything went my way and I retired happily. If I were to play all three formats, I think I will have just one or one-and-half year left. But if I play only shorter versions of the game, I can play two to three more years,” he added.

Talking about the Champions League, Muralitharan agreed with former India captain Sourav Ganguly who had said that it would be tough for the three IPL Teams to win the September 10-26 event to be played at four venues in South Africa.

“Last time, an Australian team won the tournament and it is not going to be easy for IPL teams because the other teams have good players. It is hard to pick the favourite, as in Twenty20 anything can happen. The team which plays best in the two weeks will win. I hope Chennai Super Kings play well and take the trophy like we did in the IPL. It is not going to be easy but we have players who can win the tournament,” he said.

New Zealand toppled India to grab the second position in the ICC ODI rankings. New Zealand are just one point ahead of India that stand at third position with 116 points after fourth biggest margin defeat at Dambulla on Tuesday.

Australia remains on top with 132 points. South Africa (115) and England (113) are at fifth and sixth position, according to the latest ICC ODI Ranking released on Tuesday.
