Editor’s Pick (ODI): Pakistan - Sri Lanka

By
The first ODI was quite something. Pakistan won the first match and by 83 runs. They take the lead in the five match series so far. The team showed an all-round performance. There was never a shortage in talent and quality when it comes to the Pakistan team. It is just a question of nerves and being able to stand up to pressure. Well they can also work on being consistent and not wait for the last minute. This goes not just for the Pakistan Cricket Team, that much I assure you.

Sri Lanka has to work on their bowling department. They gave away way too many runs. Letting Pakistan get to a score of 292 is what they should not have done. One, the total is really high. Two, their nerves get affected when they see that number on the board. That could be an explanation as to why the wickets tumbled regularly. They gave Pakistan all the breakthroughs they needed to win the match by a whopping 83 runs. Shoaib Malik walked away with the MOM title.

Chennai beats Mumbai and clinch thriller

By
It is not just about coming back. It is about the impact you make in the process. And Chennai team knows how to with a bang.  The Chennai team beat the home team by one wicket in what was an absolute sit-at-the-end-of-the-chair thriller. It was one of the best chases the tournament has seen and it most definitely won't be the last. The player who made the difference in the end - Jadhav - literally came back from the dead after retiring hurt to take his team to the finish line by hitting the ball in style with a six and a four.  Batting on one leg and playing an absolutely unbelievable shot, this player leveled the scores first with a six and finished the match with a four. 
Key Points  MI has never won their opener since 2013.This was Chennai's first win against MI in an opener of this T20 League DRS used in the league for the first time Bravo: It was a great team effort. I want to dedicate this win to the CSK fan, they have waited long for it. I came very early. I …

Editor's Pick (t20): India - South Africa

By
Whoever said ‘don’t make a habit out of it’ was not referring to winning. I do love writing ‘India won’ blogs and it is a pleasure to make a habit out of it as well. The Indian cricket team is most definitely making sure that the habit sticks. We are more than just on a roll in South Africa. We have found what clicks for us and we are making use of it. The best part is that almost all the players are performing. So we are actually open to experimenting and bringing in fresh faces. This way, not only do all the boys get the taste of playing, team South Africa is unable to get used to any one player long enough to figure out the style and a way to defeat it. Way to go Ravi Shastri and Virat Kohli. Talking about team selection. How is your selection going? Are you also listening to our audio podcast and getting that added advantage?
Let's get back to the matches. We lost the test matches. But we have won the ODI series in a landslide way. And are one up in the T20 series. We are repla…
