Ind vs SA Live Score, Sachin Tendulkar Century, Live Streaming
Saturday, March 12, 2011
Nagpur: Modern day cricketers have brought in plenty of innovations of their own that has enthralled stars of yore. Besides, the names of these shots are colorful as well.

So the former stars are Vivian Richards, Imran Khan and Allan Border and the shots they were full of praise were ‘palti’ of Pietersen, Harbhajan's ‘doosra’, Mahendra Singh Dhoni's ‘helicopter shot’, Dilshan's 'dilscoop' and Sehwag's 'upar cut'.
Richards gushed about Dhoni‘s 'helicopter shot'. He said, “You really have to give him credit as it is a great shot. Not many folks can play that shot and be successful.”
Man of the match Dale Steyn (5-50) played a key role in his team's fightback to bag his maiden five-wicket haul in one-day internationals as India botched up their batting powerplay to lose four wickets for just 30 runs, including the ones of their set batsmen Tendulkar and Gambhir.

There was complete lack of thought as batsmen after batsmen attempted the big stroke as India lost their last nine wickets for just 29 runs to be bowled out for 296 in 48.4 overs.
While chasing, South Africa's heroes were Jacques Kallis (69), Hashim Amla (61) and AB de Villiers (52). Faf du Plessis (25 not out), Robin Peterson (18 not out) and JP Duminy (23) also played vital cameos to contribute to the victory.
The final stages of the match were frenetic and exciting. Peterson kept his cool in the company of Du Plessis as South Africa required 13 off the last over to be bowled by Ashish Nehra. Peterson needed just four deliveries out of those six.
He inside-edged a slog for four and followed it with a six to long-on to seize the moment. He hit two off the next ball before finishing with another four to cover to silence a packed house.
For South Africa, it was the third win in four matches and they now have six points and are third on the table. Hosts and tournament favourites India still remain on top of the group with seven points from five matches. They play the West Indies next Sunday in Chennai.

Mexico’s Coach Feeds a Nation’s Obsession
Thursday, June 10, 2010
Of all the opponents that South Africa could have faced Friday in the first World Cup match on African soil, none will probably be better prepared for the noise and emotion and altitude than Mexico.
The vast Soccer City stadium will throb like a giant beehive with tens of thousands of vuvuzelas bleating in unison. But Mexico is not likely to be intimidated. El Tricolores are regularly serenaded by buzzing trumpets in their own hornets’ nest — 105,000-seat Estadio Azteca in Mexico City — where at 7,200 feet the air is even thinner than it is in South Africa.

World Cup hosts voyage of discovery
Wednesday, June 9, 2010
Travel to find in South Africa begins on Friday, when the difference in the 2010 World Cup match with Mexico City faces.
France and Uruguay at the end of the group, and does not host external competition a year until the 12-run win and feel threatened, many opponents were international featherweight.
Bafana Bafana poor in Thailand and Guatemala, Mexico, England, over a hot confrontation was much stiffer addressed, the Netherlands and Italy World Cup defending champions.
Brazil coach Carlos Alberto Parreira after the defeat to avoid recover in the next round in November last year evidently was a great morale and spirits of the course is a real feeling that the team is gone.
Critics weak opposition, when Bafana, "said the plate five times champion Brazil and Zimbabwe took a modest African opponents in the final tuning is Parreira counters point to Tanzania.
Parreria history flattering on Friday the first man to have coached six World Cup tournaments and self-confidence, so that Mexico's fourth win and two losses before the crowd exudes.
He is a smart hotel in the northern parts of the city to require each meeting with the news business, and less impressive in Johannesburg is ready to prepare the ground on the outskirts of Bafana after many sessions.
The coach also people who, only in South Korea over a narrow victory in Slovenia has been published in the last two tournaments goes to the expectations the fun is obvious.
Itumeleng Khun fully recovered from injury in Colombia continues to win the brusing, Siboniso Gaxa, captain Aaron Mokoena, Bongani Khumalo and Tsepo Masilela behind the back four is mentoring.
Parreira and five midfield you MODIS, Reneilwe Letsholonyane, Siphiwe Tshabalala and Steven Pienaar to stay for sure that at the beginning of Thanduyise Khuboni Kagisho Dikgacoi and drive other errors.
Katlego Mphela a lone striker, a South African-based footballer is not used, but made five World Cup warm-up six goals in adapting to the courts.
The biggest question concerns the central defense, where the exiled English Premier League outfit Portsmouth Mokoena free to produce the speed and positional kicking and Colombia is likely to expose deficiencies in intelligence.
And two goals against Colombia - the two penalties - one on each deomonstrates Bulgaria and other qualifiers against Bulgaria, which has not been logging plenty of scoring opportunities.
Mexican coach Javier Aguirre is the last four World Cup tournaments and reaching the last 14 -16 local stars from all over Europe and his team for nine years the minimum in the second round spot.
Guillermo Ochoa Efrain Juarez, Ricardo Osorio, Rafael Marquez, Carlos Salcido and the captain and goalkeeper seemed likely potential L 'back three and four. "
Aguirre, the former England manager Sven Goran Eriksson was born in Sweden, in the chair on the verge of derailment 4-5-1 record kept in the business organization.
Mexican Soccer City midfield player, and what the field is an area studded Giovani dos Santos is perhaps Israel Castro, Guillermo Franco, Gerardo Torrado and Andres Guardado.
Manchester United - talented individuals bound by Javier Hernandez, who always sings the same song are not alone in the flock squad - striker appears to play a strong candidate.
Football Vs Soccer
Thursday, June 25, 2009
This isn't a bad dream. Its true. Spain went down in a 2-0 defeat by the American team in the semi final of the Confederation Cup being played in South Africa. Not an easy pill to swallow, Spain was on a winning streak of 15 matches and an unbeaten run at 35 games. Its disappointing, especially because Americans don't care much for soccer. They're all about American Football, baseball and basketball. In fact, they're rarely on international soil to play a game, they seem to keep their "world" events inside their own borders. Naturally.
So, you can imagine the surprise at their victory. Newspapers all over the United States have been reporting the victory and I think its safe to say that the American media was pretty surprised. The Americans made history with their defeat, it will be the first time that the American soccer team will play in a final of a major event like this one. The Times even described it as "probably the greatest victory ever by the men's soccer team."
What does it all mean for Spanish football? Not much, yes, its a big game but they're a strong side, had a bad game, who knows what was going on in the players heads, or on the field? The way I see it, the game, the result and the two teams made some history last night. Well done to the Americanos, que usted está tomando en la próxima vez. Entonces vamos a hablar de historia.
