Pakistan is back with a lot of cricket action. Post the PSL, which was a phenomenal game not just for the locals who saw international players in the field, but also for Pakistan cricket itself; West Indies is now visiting the country. International cricket returns after 9 years.
Pitch: Hard. Weather alright. Sun is out. A pleasure for batsmen.

Teams:
Windies: Chadwick Walton, Andre Fletcher, Marlon Samuels, Rovman Powell, Jason Mohammed(c), Denesh Ramdin(w), Rayad Emrit, Kesrick Williams, Samuel Badree, Keemo Paul, Odean Smith, Andre McCarthy, Veerasammy Permaul
Pakistan: Ahmed Shehzad, Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam, Shoaib Malik, Asif Ali, Sarfraz Ahmed(w/c), Faheem Ashraf, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Amir, Hasan Ali, Hussain Talat, Mohammad Nawaz, Rahat Ali, Usman Khan, Shaheen Afridi

The players are in form. They are the favourites against what seems to be an inexperienced West Indies side. Pakistan as a cricket loving country is looking to have games as part of its normal routine now and not only to revive it.

West Indies.
Due to security issues, key players of the West Indies team have opted out of this tour. But that has not dampened the spirit of the game in the country that has been cricket-starved for a long time.
Players who have pulled out - Chris Gayle, Jason Holder and Evin Lewis along with the T20 captain Carlos Brathwaite pulled out. Jason Mohammad is going to lead the team in the three back-to-back games. They have to depend on a few keyplayers to keep the tournament alive and exciting. Marlon Samuels.

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 …

Champions Trophy - India is the team to beat

By
They say tough times brings teams together.  They say adversity brings out the best in us.  Looks like that is what is happening to Team India in the ongoing Champions Trophy in the UK.   AlI the talk about match fixing and spot fixing and conflict of interest seems to be bringing out the best in team India.  I am writing this blog just ahead of the semi finals where India will play Sri Lanka.  But got to say this - looks like team India is firing on all cylinders.  I have never seen the Indian team perform so commandingly well in a tournament before - especially one played outside the sub-continent.  All aspects of the Indian team seems to be clicking well and India is clearly the best team in the tournament so far.
Our bowling is superb, with the exception of Ishanth Sharma.   Bhuvaneshwar Kumar continues to impress one and all - the amazing thing is the carry he gets even when he is bowling around 130 kmph.  I don't think it is because of the wickets alone - I feel the carry he …
