England vs India Live Streaming Highlights ICC Cricket World Cup 2011

ICC World Cup Cricket Live Stream: India vs England Live Streaming ICC World Cup on 27 February, 2011




WATCH India Vs England Live Streaming ICC WORLD CUP 2011 AT FEB 27, 2011 here. England will go into their second game of the World Cup as they take on India at Bangalore on February 27. This game will be played on Sunday and one can expect capacity crowds to be everywhere – and empty streets in the country.

India will look to beat England, who were so bad in the field and with the ball against Netherlands that even a club side would have got a lot of runs off them. India’s batting is one of the strongest in the world and will take the English bowling on easily, unless the Bangalore track has the pace and the bounce to worry the Indians.


England will need their pace bowling to fire against a side which does not face pace too well. This will mean that they will look to bounce the Indian batsmen out, with the likes of Stuart Broad and Tim Bresnan been the key.


It will also be interesting to see whether England get in their second spinner.Watch Free Live Stream India vs England ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 Online Broadcast below.

Dhoni:"Except Ashish (Nehra), all other players are fully fit and will play to their potential."

Bangalore: England will have to contend with some explosive batting and a vociferous home crowd when it takes on World Cup favorite and co-host India in a much-awaited Group B match on Sunday.

India, which began the tournament with a comprehensive 87-run victory over Bangladesh in Dhaka, plays their first match on home soil at the Chinnaswamy Stadium with all eyes on its famed batting lineup.
The victory over fellow co-host Bangladesh, seen as revenge for a costly defeat in the last World Cup, came after emphatic wins over defending champion Australia and New Zealand in practice games.

England also won their two practice games against Canada and Pakistan before starting with an unconvincing six-wicket victory over the Netherlands.

England beat the mainly-amateur Dutch side with only eight balls to spare, after conceding 292 runs to the unfancied side.

Pace bowler Stuart Broad said on Friday the Twenty20 world champion would have to bowl and field better in future matches if it hoped perform well.

"We bowled too many short balls, especially with the new ball," said Broad. "Our fielding was also bad, but I won't say that is a worry because we are a good fielding side."

England, which lost 6-1 to Australia in their recent one-day series, is up against the likes of big-hitting batsmen Virender Sehwag, Sachin Tendulkar, Yuvraj Singh, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Yusuf Pathan.

Asked what plans England had for a batsman like Sehwag, whose 175 against Bangladesh overshadowed a creditable 100 not out by Virat Kohli, Broad said the aim was to bowl spot on.

"Sehwag is an amazing batsman who has started the World Cup in spectacular fashion. We will try to bowl in areas where he is not too strong and have certain plans for other batsmen," he said.

Broad felt the Indian batsmen needed to be surprised.

"On unhelpful pitches, you have to be unpredictable. But we are not going to bowl too many bouncers, probably only as many as we would to Australia or South Africa," said Broad, who was looking forward to playing in front of a full house.

"We have played here before. It will be an electric atmosphere. We are going to get pumped up by the crowd, but will have to keep emotions in check," said Broad.

England captain Andrew Strauss top scored with 88 against the Netherlands, but it eventually took a 20-ball cameo of 30 runs by Ravi Bopara that ensured a win after some wayward bowling.

India, which rattled up 370-4 against Bangladesh, will also have to tighten its bowling.

Pace bowler Shantakumaran Sreesanth was unimpressive against Bangladesh and India is not sure whether Ashish Nehra will be able to replace him as he is still recovering from a sore back.

India also had a minor worry as Sehwag was hit on the ribs during a practice session on Friday.

He is expected to be fit, as is Yuvraj Singh, who was hit by a Sreesanth beamer during nets on Thursday.

India skipper Dhoni has not been too concerned about injuries coming into the tournament because he has several options in both batting and bowling.

"It is good for the team that so many players are fighting for places in the team," said Dhoni, who has had to keep out the dependable Suresh Raina from the playing XI.

Probables:

India: Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, MS Dhoni (Capt), Yusuf Pathan, Harbhajan Singh, Piyush Chawla/Ashish Nehra, Zaheer Khan, Munaf Patel

Engalnd: Andrew Strauss (Capt), Kevin Pietersen, Jonathan Trott, Ian Bell, Paul Collingwood, Ravi Bopara, Matt Prior, Graeme Swann, Michael Yardy, Stuart Broad, James Anderson

India Vs South Africa 4th ODI Live Cricket Streaming and Highlights

Team India coach Gary Kirsten had said earlier that the South African tour of India will be like a major mission and will matter a much for practice for World Cup. The Indian team didn’t disappoint the coach. They drawn the series, won the only T20 match. And now are looking in much better condition to win the ODI series.
 
India is ready to win their first ever ODI series in South Africa in the 4th ODI only. The guests are already having a lead of 2-1 in the 5-matches series. The platform for the 4th ODI is ready and will be played today on Jan 21 at St. George’s Park in Port Elizabeth.

India’s record is not good at St. George’s, as the team has lost all the 4 matches played here. On the other hand, South Africa has played 25 matches here, of which it won in 16 and lost 8 matches.

Team India would keep M Vijay out of today’s squad, as he has not shown any promise in the matches played before. Parthiv Patel can get a chance over him. Bowlers are doing their job well with the bat as well, but India has to overcome from the failure of top-order batsmen.

South Africa would be under a huge pressure. Captain Graeme Smith too has said this that they are under pressure and have to win this do or die match. South Africa doing doing changes in the team has called all-rounder Albie Morkel and wicketkeeper batsman Morne Van Wyk, who knocked an excellent half-century in his debut T20 match against India recently.

The match will be aired on Ten Cricket Live at 6 pm.

ICC World Cup 2011 tickets go on sale amidst clashes

A large number of cricket fans clashed with the police in Bangladesh as they swarmed the banks to buy tickets for the ICC World Cup 2011.The crowd clashed with the police when the bank authorities said that each branch would only sell 500 tickets due to strict scrutiny of buyers’ identification papers.

The Bangladesh Cricket Board has made 15,000 tickets available per match for the cricket crazy fans all over the country. The tickets went on sale at 80 branches of the private City Bank and the state-owned Agrani Bank on Sunday.

Only a handful of cricket fans could get hold of the tickets for the event despite many on them lining up in queues since Saturday noon in the cold weather. There were chaotic situations all over the country as the police tried to beat up the crowd in order to disperse them.

The heartbroken fans clashed with the police at Mirpur, Bangabandhu Avenue, Uttara, Dhanmondi, and capital of the country, Dhaka.

The fans included many aggrieved students who retorted to raise slogans against the BCB and International Cricket Council. They vandalised at least eight to ten vehicles in front of the Mirpur branch of the City Bank after which the police intervened.

There were no threatening injuries but a few fans and a photographer had reportedly suffered minor injuries during the protests.

Shah Alam, a police inspector, while talking to a local TV channel said, “They raised slogans and held demonstrations.” However, the inspector maintained that the police calmly dispersed the protesters.

Bangladesh is the co-host of the event along with India and Sri Lanka. The opening match will be held between India and Bangladesh on 19 February at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium, Bangladesh.

The fans were angered when officials announced that 15,167 tickets would be sold to the public even though the stadium has a seating capacity of over 25,000. The remaining tickets will be reserved for foreign officials and stakeholders.

There are fifty outlets of the City Bank and thirty branches of the Agrani Bank that will be selling around 100,000 tickets for 6 games to be held in Bangladesh.

However, cricket fans were wary of the fact that they might not be able to support their home team in the World Cup due to the limited number of tickets.

The BCB is yet to comment on the availability and mismanagement of the ticket sales.

Hand injury renders Indian opener Gautam Gambhir doubtful for Durban

Indian opener Gautam Gambhir was on Saturday rendered a doubtful starter for the second Test against South Africa after injuring his left hand and the team management will take a decision on his participation before the toss on Sunday.

While captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni said that Zaheer Khan, who missed the first Test in Centurion due to hamstring injury is fit to play, he did admit that Gambhir's injury in the knuckles of his left hand is a concern ahead of the second Test.
"As of now, Zak (Zaheer Khan's nickname) is fit. He has opted out of today's session but he is fit. Gautam has a bit of a niggle in his left hand. He got hit during the last Test. We can only take a call once we receive the formal report from the physio. He batted today also, but he has a bit of swelling," Dhoni told the reporters on the eve of the second Test.
The southpaw looked in utter discomfort during the first innings when South African pacers sorted him out with short-pitched stuff. However Gambhir showed a lot of grit scoring 80 in the second innings.
In case, Gambhir doesn't get fit in time, reserve opener Murali Vijay will be inducted into the playing XI. However it will be a test of character for Vijay who is not known to be too comfortable while playing short pitched stuff.
