T20 World Cup: India Pull Off Nervy Win Over Afghanistan; Australia Have It Easy Against Ireland

It was hardly vintage India, far from it. Mahendra Singh Dhoni's men flirted with disaster for much of their first World T20 game against Afghanistan, before pulling off an edgy 23-run win. India made heavy weather of their batting, labouring to 159 for five, with Virat Kohli hitting a half-century and Suresh Raina chipping in with a 38, before bowling out Afghanistan for 136, when it once looked like the minnows would pull off one of the biggest upsets in history at the Premadasa Stadium in ...

Kohli and Dhoni Guide India to 2-0 Series Victory over New Zealand

Match Nicely Poised as Ashwin Five-for Gives India Slight Advantage

R Ashwin came to the party yet again, his five-wicket haul wresting back control for India, if only marginally, after Tim Southee's seven-for had given New Zealand the first innings advantage. India failed to capitalise in the morning session of the third day of the second Test at the Chinnaswamy stadium in Bangalore, with the Kiwis bowling out the hosts for 353; Southee the pick of the bowlers with a first-innings haul of seven for 64. However, the Indian bowlers came roaring back, consignin... Sep 2, 2012

Kohli, Raina Sparkle as India Claw Their Way Back Against the Kiwis

A wonderful second day contest between bat and ball saw India claw themselves to a measure of comfort, thanks largely to an assured 93 from Virat Kohli, on the second day of the second Test against New Zealand. Barely putting a foot wrong, the Delhiite, along with Suresh Raina and skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, took India to 283 for five, when the hosts were at one stage hanging on precariously at 80 for four. Kohli was at the crease on 93, with Dhoni giving him company on 46 in an unbroken sixth... Sep 1, 2012

Pragyan Ojha Happy to Open the Bowling, Expects Pitch to Help Batsmen

Pragyan Ojha admitted the Bangalore pitch was a little different from the one at Hyderabad, with the left-arm spinner predicting some big runs to be scored by his team. On the first over of the day, it was neither Zaheer Khan nor Umesh Yadav, who opened the bowling, with Ojha given the responsibility, as India skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni looked to exploit the little bit of moisture that was on the pitch. Ojha finished the opening day with figures of four for 90, as the Kiwis ended their day on... Aug 31, 2012
