India vs Sri Lanka: ICC Champions Trophy - Second Semi final | Watch Live Free Streaming - 20 June

2013-06-19T16:53:00.001-07:00

The second semi final of the ICC Champions Trophy is being played between India and Sri Lanka at Sophia Gardens, Cardiff Thursday morning today. In fact today's show off is the clash of two Superpowers of Cricket in subcontinent.

In the first semi final, England beat South Africa by seven wickets and now await the winner of today's semi final in the final to be played on coming Sunday.

For today's match analysts are of the view that more than the pitch, which is contrasting in nature, the weather will be key - light to heavy rain is expected through the day, which will lead to a curtailed match or, at worst, a washout.

So in case if today's semi hit by the rains and results into a washout, India, by virtue of its strong standing in the Group B would go through forward. So it is the luck which will be dominant more today rather than the game.

But if weather stays clear and in favour of Sri Lanka, even then India have an upper hand in batting and fielding. But at the same time should be careful with Sanga and Mahela, only the 2 players are in good touch. Sri Lanka has a slight upper hand in their fast bowling than India, but we never seem to be struggling against them in the recent past years. So, if weather stays clear, we have good chance to go and beat the Lankans since almost all the 11 Indian players are in good shape to give enough chance to overcome the Islanders.

The likely opposing squads are as under:
India squad
MS Dhoni*†, R Ashwin, S Dhawan, RA Jadeja, KD Karthik†, V Kohli, B Kumar, A Mishra, IK Pathan, SK Raina, I Sharma, RG Sharma, M Vijay, R Vinay Kumar, UT Yadav

Sri Lanka squad
AD Mathews*, LD Chandimal, LHD Dilhara, TM Dilshan, RMS Eranga, HMRKB Herath, DPMD Jayawardene, KMDN Kulasekara, SL Malinga, BMAJ Mendis, MDKJ Perera, NLTC Perera, KC Sangakkara†, SMSM Senanayake, HDRL Thirimanne

Umpires Aleem Dar and RA Kettleborough

World 200m champion Brown provisionally suspended after a positive test for banned substance

2013-06-18T23:48:00.000-07:00

World 200m champion Veronica Campbell-Brown of Jamaica has been provisionally suspended after a positive test for a banned substance, reports BBC.

Campbell-Brown, 31, tested positive on 4 May for a banned diuretic. She is suspended pending her "B sample" result, the Jamaican Athletics Administrative Association said, and faces a two-year ban from athletics.

The banned diuretic for which she tested positive at the Jamaica Invitational meet is considered by the World Anti-Doping Agency to be a masking agent.

Campbell-Brown won 200m and 4x100m relay golds at the 2004 Olympics in Athens and retained her 200m title in Beijing four years later. She has won 16 medals for her country in world and Olympic meets and at London 2012 took bronze in the 100m and was a member of Jamaica's silver medal-winning sprint relay team.

England beat New Zealand to qualify for ICC CHampions Trophy Semis

2013-06-16T20:39:00.001-07:00

England beat New Zealand by a tense 10-run win at Cardiff to qualify for the ICC Champions Trophy semis.

A target of 170 in a game delayed by five hours and reduced to 24 overs per side appeared well within the Kiwis' reach after England lost their last seven wickets for 28 runs.

But the hosts bowled splendidly, especially with the new ball, to restrict New Zealand to 159-8 despite Kane Williamson's valiant 67 off 54 balls.

A large portion of the credit for England's safe passage must go to Anderson, who claimed two key early wickets and finished with 3-32, while Ravi Bopara - their fifth bowler - numbered the dangerous Brendon McCullum in his haul of 2-26.

Should Sri Lanka beat Australia on Monday, England will qualify as runners-up and meet India in the last four at Cardiff on Thursday.

Andy Murray won his third Aegon Championships title and completed the perfect preparation for Wimbledon with victory over Marin Cilic at Queen's Club.

The Briton's serve was especially impressive as he won the rain-delayed final 5-7 7-5 6-3.

Elsewhere in Halle, Germany, the 2013 'any' title starved Roger Federer finally won over Halle with victory over Russia's Mikhail Youzhny in the final of the Gerry Weber Open in Halle, Germany.

It is the first time since 2007 that Federer has come back from a set down in the semis and final to triumph at an ATP World Tour event.

The 31-year-old Swiss won 6-7 (5-7) 6-3 6-4 to collect the 77th title of his career and a sixth at this tournament.

It may be added that Four of Federer's seven Wimbledon wins have come after triumphs in Halle - so it remains to be seen whether Federer can defend his title at Wimbledon this year or else.

Brazil strips Japan 3-0 in Confederations Cup Opener

2013-06-15T22:42:00.002-07:00

The opening match of the Confederations Cup Saturday night turned out to be a one sided show as the host Brazil did not allow their Japanese opponent to come near their goal post.

It was 21 years old Neymar who scored the first goal right in the third minute that took the Japanese by surprise - from which they could never recover throughout the remaining game. Neymar scored with a firm shot from outside the penalty area, connecting with the ball after Fred controlled a long cross from Marcelo with his chest. The ball bounced only once before Neymar fired it into the top corner.

It was Paulinho who scored another goal after the half time in the 48th minute to scare away their opponents. However, it was Jo who sealed the Brazilian victory in the 90th minutes third goal.

The win puts Brazil at the top of Group A with three points. Italy and Mexico will play in the other group match on Sunday.

The game was the first international match to use goal-line technology, but it was not needed for any decisions.

India vs Pakistan: ICC Champions Trophy - 10th Match | Watch Live Free Streaming - 15 June

2013-06-14T16:35:00.003-07:00

The 10th match of the ICC Champions Trophy is being played between India and Pakistan of Group B at Edgbaston, Birmingham Saturday morning today.

Although Pakistan has lost all its chances to be in the ICC Champions Trophy by losing all its group matches, this last group match is otherwise is meaningless as far the tournament is concerned. But meeting of India and Pakistan always draw large crowds and that too in Birmingham which is house to majority Pakistan and Indian families.

Therefore we see today a match between two countries with their long standing rivalry in cricket amid a volatile and emotionally charged crowd. For face saving, Pakistan would try its best to win the match, which though now seems very unlikely, as India which has already qualified for the semis by winning all its matches will like to maintain the winning momentum before playing semis.

From being the underdogs before the Champions Trophy began, India have become the team to beat. The last time both teams played, in India earlier this year, Pakistan had won the ODI series. One of the biggest factors behind India's struggle back then was the lack of momentum created by the openers.

So let us this match - a match being played for the crowd of both countries and to win over against the other - in fact today's match is more like a WWE's wrestling with lot of beating, action, suspense and drama. One can imagine the crowd interest from the fact that the tickets for the game were sold out within 30 minutes of being made available online.

The likely opposing squads are as under:
India squad
MS Dhoni*†, R Ashwin, S Dhawan, RA Jadeja, KD Karthik†, V Kohli, B Kumar, A Mishra, IK Pathan, SK Raina, I Sharma, RG Sharma, M Vijay, R Vinay Kumar, UT Yadav

Pakistan squad

This year, Roger Federer of Switzerland will be defending his title, which he won against Andy Murray of Britain last year 4–6, 7–5, 6–3, 6–4. If Roger Federer wins the tile this year too, he will outscore Pete Sampras seven title wins and that of William Renshaw of seven titles before the 1968 era.

In the women single's event, Serena Williams of USA will defend her title which she won against Polish Agnieszka Radwańska 6–1, 5–7, 6–2 and robbed a chance for Radwanska to win a Grand Slam for her country since it was last won in 1939. Serena won her fifth Wimbledon title last year and has a long way to equal Helen Wills eight titles before 1968 era and nine by Martina Navratilova thereafter. Serena has been in finals for seven times.

Britain which once dominated the Wimbledon, has not won since Fred Perry's last win in 136. In fact Fred won consecutive three times from 1934-36. It was Andy Murray who tried his luck in the final of 2012, the first British player in finals since Fred's last 1936, but lost to Federer 4–6, 7–5, 6–3, 6–4.

Although Andy Murray won the Olympics gold medal against Federer in London Olympics 2012, the British drought at Wimbledon continues since 1936.

Of the present top seeded players, Roger Federer has won the title seven times, including last year's, followed by twice by Nadal and once by Djokovic.

Let us watch the Wimbledon that commences in about ten days time and see whether Andy Murray gets to clinch the title from Federer to be the first British since 1937 or Federer claims it for the record eighth time, before he is too old for it.
