India Vs Zimbabwe

July-19-2013
India 187 for 3 (Kohli 68*) beat Zimbabwe 183 (Williams 45, Mishra 4-47) by seven wickets.

A quick end to the Zimbabwe innings seemed imminent but the bottom three weren't about to throw their wickets away. Chatara's hook for six off Vinay was the highlight as the tail extended Zimbabwe's innings by more than 11 overs before Mishra returned to polish them off.

India leading series by 3-0.

Tri-Series Champion

July 11, 2013
West Indies - India - Sri Lanka



A thrilling end to a thrilling series. India, after losing their opening two games, have emerged deserved winners. Hosts West Indies were poor during the latter stages while Sri Lanka faltered when it mattered most. MS Dhoni will bag the limelight but Virat Kohli deserves the plaudits for leading India on most of the tour. The 2013 Champions Trophy winners have cemented their status and the world's No.1 ODI team.

  • Dhoni has got his 19th Man of the Match award in ODIs – his sixth against Sri Lanka.
  • Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s tally of 10 wickets (ave.9.70) is his best performance in a series – also the highest in the just-concluded Tri series competition.
Match Summary:

Final Match: India v Sri Lanka at Port of Spain - Jul 11, 2013
Sri Lanka 201 (48.5/50 ov); India 203/9 (49.4/50 ov)
India won by 1 wicket (with 2 balls remaining)

Kings XI Punjab won


Pune Warriors Vs Kings XI Punjab
Pune Warriors 99/9 (20/20 ov)
Kings XI Punjab 100/2 (12.2/20 ov)
April, 7, 2013

Result:
Kings XI Punjab won by 8 wickets (with 46 balls remaining)

What a thrashing, losing a T20 with almost eight overs to go. Pune have their third captain in as many seasons, but it's not looking any better for them with successive losses to start off. Winning start for Kings XI, though, we are informed on air that this is the first time they've won their first game in a season. Thrilling IPL debut for Manan Vohra, Gilchrist showing he's still got some of the old touch, and Mandeep chipping in as he often does. They didn't have much to get after that attack of theirs ran through Pune for 99. Something's got to be really twisted down in the Pune camp, they are a really solid side on paper.

Chennai Super Kings v Mumbai Indians
Result:
Mumbai Indians won by 9 runs

Dhoni walked in, and the match started to turn. An upper cut appeared, a whiplash drive, a calm pull. Soon the long-on and deep midwicket boundary was being peppered with monster sixes, even as batsmen kept arriving and departing at the other end. Pollard took the most punishment, five of Dhoni's eight boundaries coming off him.

IPL 6 - Sun Raised In Night


Indian Premier League - 3rd match
Played at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Uppal, Hyderabad
5 April 2013 - day/night (20-over match)

Sunrisers Hyderabad v Pune Warriors

Result:
Sunrisers Hyderabad won by 22 runs.

Sunrisers used up their quota when they batted, but weren't able to find any momentum. The top four got only starts, and it was down to Perera to breathe some life into a suffocating innings. He began with consecutive fours off Rahul Sharma and slogged Marlon Samuels' darts for two more boundaries before mishitting an Ashok Dinda full toss in the 18th over. Perera's fall meant Sunrisers weren't able to finish well with the bat, but they were far more determined with the ball.

Result:

Royal Challengers' victory had been set up earlier in the match by a Chris Gayle IPL classic. His unbeaten 92 from 58 balls helped his side overcome a pedestrian start, and launched them to 156 for 5. After Gayle, the next highest Royal Challengers score was 24, from Virat Kohli.
