SA score 284 !

Image
SA are 96/0, with Amla on 48 and Smith on 45. A flying start by SA and we can hope for a massive total. It seems Dhaka is a batting paradise. Now Amla is on 50 and SA are 98/0. Smith danced down the wicket to Mahmudullah, the spinner, missed the ball and was smartly stumped and SA are 98/1. Now Kallis has joined the in form Amla. Amla was out for 51, clean bowled by Abdul Razzak, the left arm spinner. BD is playing three spinners, Razzak, Shakib and Naeem Islam ! Now Kallis is on 49 and du Plessis has just hit a four, taking the score to 172/3. Kallis is gone for 69, Van Wyk for 5 and now SA are 260/6. Three fours, two by Peterson and one by Botha and now SA are 273/6. One more over to go ! Now Botha is run out and SA are 273/7. Peterson lofts Rubel for four and SA are now 277/7! NOw Parnell is bowled and SA are 280/8! Tsotsobe hits four and SA finish at 284/8 ! The SA innings was built around half centuries by Amla, Du Plessis and Kallis. Peterson played a cameo, a blistering 22 not o...

Murali and Mendis spin out NZ !

Image
Dilshan is out caught and Tharanga is run out and now SL are 60/. Sanga is playing well on 22 and Mahela, very cautious, is on 15 ! SL seem to be following the traditional method of keeping wickets in the first 35 overs and then launching a blitzkreig. You need wickets to launch blitzkreigs. Gone are the days of Kalu and Jaya, who used to put on 100 runs on the board in the first fifteen overs. Now SL are 60/2, off 13 overs ! A great hundred by Sanga and a solid 66 by Mahela powered SL to 265/9. When NZ batted, Murali struck, taking 4/25. He was ably supported by M, who took two wickets and NZ was all out for 153, a win for SL by 112 runs ! We have said earler in our columns that SL has the most potent spin attack in the world, with Murali, Mendis and Herath. The two Ms are the most deadly spin attack in contemporary cricket. Indian spin bowling has been extolled but somehow Bajji, Chawla and Ashwin have not clicket so far ( except in the warm up matches ). We dont know whether is a st...

Great Stirling start by Ireland !

Image
IRE are 86/0 at the moment. Stirling is playing a sterling knock and is now 50 not out ! Stirling got a century and is now 100 not out and the first wicket partnership fetched 177 runs for IRE. Porterfield was out, caught behind, off Cooper for 68. This is a glorious response by IRE indeed ! In 25 overs, they were 177/1 ! IRE won by six wickets, with Sterling scoring 101. Niall O Brien was 57 not out and IRE finished at 307/4 ! All credit to IRE for the great chase ! It was a grand match, with IRE rising to the occasion, not overawed by the massive 306 posted by the Dutch. An opening partnership of 177 by Porterfield and Stirling laid the base for that mammoth 307/4 ! Sterling went on to score a brilliant hundred and others like Niall O Brien ( 57) played well to show Irish supremacy !

Jove will save Earth !

Image
Should one worry about the Super Moon? NO! The Super Full Moon occurs when Sun is in Pisces and Moon comes diametrically opposite at ( 180 degree from the Sun's longitude ) Virgo. This is the Full Moon, the Pournami of Indian Astronomy. Now Jupiter in Pisces is the Redeeming Grace. Jupiter, the indicator of Divine Grace will save this planet from catastrophes. Some devastation has already taken place, as the Tsunami hit Japan on the 11th. Still Japan is in a mess. Burning nuclear rectors , earthquakes and tsunamis ravaged Japan and Japan looks like a devastated area. Jupiter is the divine planet, the wisdom planet and He will not allow this planet to be destroyed ! It will not be the end of the world, as some Doomsday theorists make out. Vedic Astrology does not support Doomsday theories. The sum total Energy in the Universe is a constant and cannot be destroyed ! So no end of the world ! One need not bother unnecessarily about this phenomenon. There were Doomsday theories that th...
