South Africa Vs New Zealand Twenty20 cricket match- South Africa cricket team beat New Zealand
Twenty20 cricket match summary : New Zealand 129/7 , South Africa 130/7 off 19.5 overs
The South African cricket team beat the New Zealand cricket team by the narrowest of margins at the Wanderers cricket ground.
The New Zealand cricket team made 129 runs for 7 wickets against the South African cricket team. Amazingly, the South African cricket team huffed and puffed and just about managed to pull off a win against the South African cricket team in the Twenty20 cricket match.
The South African cricket team tried their best to lose in the South Africa Vs New Zealand Twenty20 cricket match
The South African cricket team failed in their attempt to lose the Twenty20 international against New Zealand!
Chasing a meagre target of 130 runs set by the New Zealand cricket team in the Twenty20 cricket match, the South African cricket team were 89/3 but managed to struggle and just win off the second last ball of the Twenty20 cricket international
The exciting win for the South African cricket team made for great theatre and an endorsement for Twenty20 cricket, but was a poor exhibition of finishing cricket matches.
AB De Villiers was the hero for South Africa in this South Africa Vs New Zealand Twenty20 cricket match
AB De Villiers did not open the batting but played a match winning knock in this Twenty20 cricket international after being sent two-down by the Graeme Smith, the South African cricket captain. The apparently “cool” strategy of opening the batting with the in-form Kallis obviously failed miserably, but AB de Villiers once again demonstrated his talent with an unbeaten 52 to take South Africa to an unconvincing win in this South Africa Vs New Zealand Twenty20 cricket international
In summary, another close Twenty20 cricket international and the days of one day international cricket seem to be numbered

Is Mahendra Singh Dhoni really a great Twenty20 cricket captain
As Mahendra Singh Dhoni has found out, Twenty20 cricket is a real challenge to cricketing captains. However, given the limited exposure of international cricket teams to Twenty20 cricket,captaincy in Twenty20 cricket is currently limited to being on your toes as a captain and taking quick decisions
Mahendra Singh Dhoni ’s captaincy style is suited to current Twenty20 cricket
Mahendra Singh Dhoni has a captaincy style suited to current Twenty20 cricket. Mahendra Singh Dhoni smiles all the time, and never gets ruffled by either defeat or victory.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni may be an old school inspired captain of the Imran Khan variety, but when Twenty20 cricket is still in its infancy, the Australian way of analyzing and taking decisions based on computerized analysis is not yet effective
Mahendra Singh Dhoni ’s in-your-face blunt captaincy and his rapport with Yuvraj Singh, is the reason for the success of the Indian cricket team

Upcoming Twenty20 cricket international matches-South Africa Vs New Zealand Twenty20 cricket match at the New Wanderers Stadium,Johaneesburg,23 November,2007
The South Africa Vs New Zealand Twenty20 cricket match is set to happen at the already historic New Wanderers Stadium in Johaneesburg. The South African cricket authorities have always been really supportive of Twenty20 cricket. Having the South Africa Vs New Zealand Twenty20 cricket match so close to the Twenty20 cricket World cup again affirms the support of the South African cricket board towards Twenty20 cricket
The South Africa Vs New Zealand Twenty20 cricket contest will be an evenly matched contest
The New Zealand cricket team is a really good exponent of Twenty20 cricket and can be expected to really test South Africa in the Twenty20 cricket international at the New Wanderers stadium,Johaneesburg
The New Zealand cricket team looked good enough to win the Twenty20 cricket World cup, but a little lapse in their concentration at a crucial junction against the Pakistan cricket team cost them the opportunity to win the Twenty20 cricket World cup
The New Zealand cricket team seems ideally suited for Twenty20 cricket, a lot of bits and pieces players who can bat and bowl reasonably well
New Zealand’s Daniel Vettori was probably the best bowler in the Twenty20 World cup
Daniel Vettori will be a force to reckon with for the South African cricket team in the New Zealand Vs South Africa Twenty20 cricket match
Daniel Vettori is probably the best spinner in the world today, debatably in all forms of cricket,but definitely the best spinner in Twenty20 cricket. Daniel Vettori may be the difference between the New Zealand and South Africa cricket teams, as the South African cricket team has quality fast bowlers in Ntini and Nel, but no great spinner
An exciting Twenty20 cricket match between the New Zealand and South Africa cricket teams, two quality Twenty20 cricket teams that narrowly missed winning the Twenty20 cricket World cup

Kapil Dev
Will the Indian Cricket League Twenty20 cricket tournament be as boring as watching elephants race?

Kapil Dev ’s Zee TV promoted Indian cricket League Twenty20 cricket rebel tournament is starting on 30 November 2007
The rebel Indian Cricket League Twenty20 tournament schedule has been announced without much fanfare and media publicity. The Indian Cricket League Twenty20 matches are starting on November 30, though only scratchy details of the tournament schedule have been announced so far
Kapil Dev ’s Indian Cricket League Twenty20 cricket tournament has been dynamited by BCCI’s Indian Premier League
The marketing whizzes of the BCCI have effectively blunted the challenge posed by Kapil Dev ’s Indian Cricket League by firstly poaching all the top players of the Indian Cricket League such as Yousof Mohammed, Shane Warne and Steve McGrath
The prize money offered by the Indian Premier League is also incredibly high compared to Kapil Dev ’s Twenty20 Indian Cricket League and this has caused some more cricketers from Kapil Dev’s Indian Cricket League to jump ship and join BCCI’s Twenty20 cricket Indian Premier League
The Indian Cricket League ’s Twenty20 cricket tournament still boasts of talents such as Brian Lara and Chris Cairns
The Indian Cricket League Twenty20 cricket matches will still boast of incredible talents such as Brian Lara, Upul Chandana, Nathan Astle and Chris Cairns. Also, almost entire Indian Ranji trophy teams such as the Hyderabad Ranji cricket team have defected to the Indian Cricket League ’s Twenty20 cricket format
In summary, the Twenty20 tournament as part of the Indian Cricket League is a great opportunity for Kapil Dev to showcase great cricket talents such as Brian Lara and Chris Cairns probably for the last time
