Watch Pakistan vs Australia 2nd ODI Live Streaming
But with the added layers of what has happened to Pakistan cricket over the last two months, the broader fate that has befallen them over the last two years, and to a nation seeking cheer as desperately as Susan, it is as welcome as might be a water cooler in the Thar desert. The details don't matter as much as the bigger picture but they are worth noting, if only to sketch an outline over the rest of the series.

Indian actresses Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif were signed as the brand ambassadors of the franchise.
Vijay Mallya wanted to associate one of his top-selling liquor brands, either ‘No. 1 McDowell’s’ or ‘Royal Challenge’ with the team. Ultimately, ‘Royal Challenge’ was chosen, and hence the team was given the name ‘Bangalore Royal Challengers’. The jersey colours of the team are red and golden yellow, and the logo consists of the RC emblem with ‘Bangalore Royal Challengers’ in standard format.

He calls Sourav - Lordie, Ishant Sharma - Long John, Dildo - Shah Rukh Khan, Coachie - John Buchanan, phoren babas - coach and his team, Prince of Patiala - Yuvaraj, Babli - Preity, Big Sister - Shilpa Shetty, Bevdaas - Bangalore Royal Challengers, Meera Bhai - Harbhajan Singh, Appam - Sreesanth and so on.
Now, the question is who is the “fake IPL Player”? He sure is creating havoc in IPL season 2.

Soon afterwards, Pakistan senate’s standing committee on sports moved a resolution for an “immediate change” in the PCB management.
If Butt is found guilty of a breach of privilege, he would be asked to apologise.
Meanwhile, Imran said only drastic measures can put Pakistan cricket back on track.

Imran, now a politician, told reporters that senators have no business telling the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) what to do as they “don’t know anything about the sport”.
“The senators should do the job they are supposed to do and leave cricket alone,” said Imran.
A war of words has been going on between the PCB chairman Ijaz Butt and the Senate’s committee on sports in recent weeks.

Can Yuvraj and teammates give Kings XI Punjab owner Preity Zinta the IPL trophy she so desperately craves for?
A vividly disappointed Preity Zinta, one of the most involved team owners in the IPL, remains one of the most enduring photographs of the tournament's first edition.
Giving her players warm and affectionate hugs after every good performance, Zinta has done everything expected of her as a team owner. It is now on Yuvraj Singh and his teammates to give her the big prize-the IPL trophy.
Kings XI Punjab, given the talent pool available with them, start as the dark horses of the tournament. In Yuvraj Singh, they have the tournament's cleanest hitter and the only player to have hit six sixes in an over in T20 cricket.
His current form, perhaps the best he has played in his life, coupled with the fact that he will be leading the side may well make IPL season two Yuvraj Singh's tournament.

Will the champions have their day again, despite injuries and suffering the loss of Pakistani players?
The "Underdogs" certainly had its day in the first edition of the IPL. Led by one of the most charismatic men ever to have graced the cricket field, and having in its line up some of the best exponents of the T-20 game, Rajasthan Royals were certainly the surprise package of the IPL in its inaugural year.
While they have added much by way of star value to their line up this year, Shilpa Shetty as co-owner was indeed a pleasant surprise, and has already done her part in the much talked about music video she has shot for the Royals, on the field they have lost a bit of zip with key players suffering from injury. Pakistani players' not being permitted to play in the IPL has affected the Royals more than any other team. Sohail Tanvir, best bowler in IPL one, isn't available and his replacement, Shaun Tait, is also out injured. Shane Watson, one of the key players for the Royals in season one, is undergoing rehab and it is a million dollar guess if he will be fit to bowl at the start of the season. Greame Smith though, is back from injury and in home conditions will surely give the Royals the start they need. But as in season one, at the start of season two the Royals look heavily reliant on the brilliance of Yousuf Pathan and skipper Shane Warne.

Raina is fast developing into an extremely valuable player.The way he matched Hayden shot for shot was absoultely brilliant.Dhoni too did not disappoint in the end.
But what I was disappointed about was the poor show by Parthiv Patel.I feel that the cap on no. of foreign players has reduced the quality of the cricket.Surely Fleming could do better than Parthiv.
I did not see our bowling for two reasons -
1. I was sure that we would win with 208 on the board and Mumbai without Sachin
2. I don't like to see bowling
Contrary to my expectation, Mumbai Indians gave us quite a close call.Sanath Jayasuriya was expected to cause some trouble, but Uthappa and Bhajji added to it.All said and done, we managed to win, and that's the only thing that counts.
The Hindu reports that Goni was responsible for restricting the run-scoring of the Mumbai Indians.All I can say is well done, we need more like you m'boy.

Of course, a win in the next match will make me eat my words about the momentum and all.Who knows, these two losses may be the only ones for CSK this season.Twenty20 seems to be the bane of any cricket analyst,and for an amateur like me,predicting results is a nightmare.

watch Delhi Daredevils v Kings XI Punjab live streaming
Squad: Virender Sehwg (captain & ICON), Gautam Gambhir, Dinesh Karthik (wicket-keeper), Ashish Nehra, Amit Mishra, Aavishkar Salvi, Manoj Tiwary, Mithun Manhas, Pradeep Sangwan, Rajat Bhatia, Tejashwi Yadav, Umesh Yadav, Vijaykumar Yo Mahesh, Yogesh Nagar, Paul Collingwood, Farveez Maharoof, Andrew McDonald, Glenn McGrath, Owais Shah, Dirk Nannes, Tilakratne Dilshan, David Warner, AB de Villiers, Daniel Vettori.
Analysis: One look, last year, at the squad of the DareDevils from Delhi showed that they did not really have a well balanced team. Instead, they had some really good players who are well known exponents in their respective arts. In Sehwag and Gambhir, they boast of two very fine batsmen at the top of the order and some equally gifted bowlers in McGrath and Maharoof who could strangle any batting line-up at any given time. What they lacked was a backbone in the team, a sure shot match winner at number five or six, who would help the chase down targets, and even build the innings depending on a good or bad start to the innings. That was to prove their major failing when they were eventually knocked off their perch in the semis last time around.

And the Chennai Super Kings versus Mumbai Indians match will be the first one to kick off the season of IPL 2009. I love to see Laxmipathy Balaji coming to bowl after a long back. With Jacob Oram and Muttiah Muralidaran the bowling looks strong and there are many big wigs to give same strength to their batting.
In the MI team we have Zaheer Khan, Dilhara Fernando, Kyle Mills and Harbhajan Singh to scare the opposition and there are a few batsmen to scare with their willows; Sanath will be my favorite. The Twenty20 format of the IPL tournament instantly became popular with cricket fans across the world with loads of excitement.

Dinesh Salunkhe, Paras Dogra, Anup Revandkar, Srideep Mangela,Ashraf Makda and Azhar Malik are the other Rajasthan Royals players wo will return to India.
"It has always been a target to pick a final squad of 17-18 players, and this year we have an even stronger squad than last year. It is disappointing to have to let go of any players, as they are all stars in our view," Badale said.
Claiming the franchisee is a close-knit family where a player's participation is not about one season alone, Badale said axed players will have a role to play in future matches and tournaments.
"Much of the attention will focus on Mohammed Kaif, who has been a key part of our success to date -- not just as a batsman, but as a role model for our younger Indian players. He has been extremely supportive of the decision, which says a lot about him as a person.

The Chennai Super Kings, under the leadership of wicketkeeper/batsman MS Dhoni, are entering this year's IPL as one of the bookmaker’s favourite.
Big hitting all-rounders Andrew Flintoff and Albie Morkel will be at the forefront of the Super Kings attack this coming Saturday.
They will try to be tamed by the Mumbai Indian's bowlers, consisting of Zaheer Khan, Lasith ‘Slinga’ Malinga and Harbhajan Singh, who have the knowledge of Shaun Pollock (the Mumbai Indians' mentor) on their side, when taking on the often tricky Newlands pitch.

India vs New Zealand 3rd Test Day 3 live streaming
The right-handed middle order batsman said the home team was "shattered" with the visitors' performance today but said they have not lost hope of turning the tables against India with a strong response in the remaining days.
"It is going to be very difficult. But we have to take a positive frame of mind into tomorrow. A lot of things have to go our way to hopefully give ourselves a chance of getting back into the game. If we could knock three or four wickets early on, we could give ourselves a big sniff," said Taylor, who had made 151 in Napier in the second Test. He even went back to the history books to buttress the point that they can come back into the game, losing or drawing which would mean India clinching a Test series on New Zealand soil in 41 years.

Real Madrid defender Fabio Cannavaro has been quoted as pointing out that it 'would not be a huge drama' if he left the Bernabeu in the summer: maybe Arnesen - in charge of global scouting - could send a few of his number to watch the little-known Italian in action, with Manchester City also understood to be interested.

Not so long ago, Amr Zaki was one of the hottest properties in the Premier League.
On loan from Zamalek to Wigan, he scored eight goals in 10 games, prompting the Egyptian club to double their original £6 million asking price as clubs of the calibre of Liverpool began an apparent bidding war.
Fast forward six months, and Zaki has not scored from open play for 19 matches, has been involved in a bizarre row with his compatriot Mido and been described by Steve Bruce as the most unprofessional player he has ever worked with.

There has been undeniable progress at Bolton since their successful fight with relegation last season, yet the fear of sliding into the Championship still haunts Megson.
The Trotters are five points above third-bottom Newcastle, but Megson said: "The relegation issue is between nine clubs at the moment, from West Brom up to ourselves, and we want to try and get out of that relegation area as soon as we can.

The two-week recess since the last-gasp loss at Wigan has also taken the sting out of the Tigers' 13th defeat of the season.
