Xavier Marshall has broken the sixes record in one day international cricket
Xavier Marshall has slammed12 sixes in a single one day international cricket match for the West Indies against the hapless Canada cricket team. By launching 12 sixes in a single one day international cricket match, Xavier Marshall has beaten the long standing record of Sanath Jayasurya and Shahid Afridi who held the sixes record in one day internationals with eleven sixes in a single one day international cricket match
Xavier Marshall scored his 12 sixes record against a weak Canada cricket team
Xavier Marshall ’s 12 sixes record has come against the Canada cricket team which is definitely not even among the top 10 cricketing nations of the world. But hey, hitting 12 sixes is not easy against any opposition, and Xavier Marshall has showcased his talent
Xavier Marshall once again proves that Twenty20 cricket stars can also do well in one day international cricket
Xavier Marshall is of course one of the stars of the Stanford Cricket League. The typical reaction of cricket buffs is to dismiss Twenty20 cricket stars but Xavier Marshall could do well even in conventional one day international cricket and test cricket.
The Canada cricket team did not have a Mendis or a Muralitharan in their cricket team, but hey, full marks to Xavier Marshall for his incredible one day international cricket record
Vijaykumar Yo Mahesh is an exciting prospect for Indian cricket
Yo Mahesh is a classy bowler , ideally suited for Twenty20 and one day international cricket
Today, in the Delhi Daredevils Vs Mumbai Indians IPL Twenty20 cricket match,Yo Mahesh proved that he has nerves of steel. After being taken for 15 runs from his first over by a rampaging Sanath Jayasurya,Yo Mahesh then came back really well to take 4 wickets.
Yo Mahesh is another of those great finds of the Indian Premier League IPL Twenty20 cricket tournament
Yo Mahesh , along with Piyush Chawla, Mishra and definitely Gony, is one of the great finds of the Indian Premier League (IPL)
To restate the obvious,Yo Mahesh is going through a short learning curve.Bowling to the likes of Jayasurya,Graeme Smith and Dhoni is definitely done wonders for Vijaykumar Yo Mahesh
Yo Mahesh has done well in the IPL Twenty20 cricket competition, but given the competition , may find it difficult to break into the Indian cricket team soon
Yo Mahesh still has some time to get into the Indian cricket team , given the competition for medium fast bowlers , but is definitely an exciting prospect
Sanath Jayasurya is the most devastating opening batsman of world cricket
Sanath Jayasurya is currently decimating the Delhi Daredevils bowlers in the crucial Mumbai Indians Vs Delhi Daredevils IPL cricket match
Watching Sanath Jayasurya bat is like watching a machine gun assault.
Sanath Jayasurya obviously believes in the policy of “Take no prisoners, and show no mercy”. Sanath Jayasurya treats every bowler as if the bowler was a green novice making his debut in cricket
Amazingly,Sanath Jayasurya has been dropped so frequently by the Sri Lankan cricket team
Sanath Jayasurya of the Sri Lankan cricket team and Virendra Sehwag of the Indian cricket team are simply once in a lifetime talents. When Sanath Jayasurya and Sehwag fail, their national cricket selectors probably feel that they dont deserve to have a place in the cricket team, due to a lack of technique
But its simply stupid to ever drop Jayasurya or Sehwag since they are such talented blokes and technique really does not matter when you have people with such talent who can create such fear among the opposition team ’s bowlers by their mere presence
I hope to see more of the classy Sanath Jayasurya , at least in the Indian Premier League

Anil Kumble then seemed to be unplayable, as he spun out both openers, Fleming and Parthiv Patel, and then got rid of Badrinath, the best batsman in the Chennai SuperKings IPL cricket team
With Anil Kumble in form, the Bangalore Royal Challengers are capable of creating some more upsets in their last two games of the Indian Premier League

Shaun Pollock is the hero of the Mumbai Indians cricket team in the IPL
Shaun Pollock is an unassuming, almost shy,unpolitical guy who always lets his cricket do the talking- a personality similar to that of Sachin Tendulkar
Shaun Pollock is probably one of the best allrounders ever in international cricket
Shaun Pollock is almost never spoken about in the same hushed tones as the great allrounders such as Ian Botham, Imran Khan, Kapil Dev or even Jaques Kallis,, who is regarded as the best allrounder of the current generation
Shaun Pollock is very easily the better bowler compared to Kallis and probably deserved a better batting position than the number four he batted in test matches
Shaun Pollock : South African cricket team’s loss is Mumbai Indians’ gain
Shaun Pollock retired early, tired of the selection policies of the South African cricket selectors, and the Mumbai Indians stood to gain by his retirement, as Shaun Pollock is now available for the entire IPL cricket series for the Mumbai Indians
Shaun Pollock, the unsung hero of South African cricket, is now the hero of the teeming Mumbai metropolis
Sachin Tendulkar is set to make his Twenty20 debut for the Mumbai Indians today
Sachin Tendulkar is set to debut for the Mumbai Indians today against the Chennai SuperKings in a cracking encounter.
Could Sachin Tendulkar’s entry make the Mumbai Indians into a champion cricket team?
Already Sachin Tendulkar ’s Mumbai Indians are showing signs of coming to terms with the Twenty20 format and getting their combination right.
Sachin Tendulkar ’s debut for the Mumbai Indians could provide them the spark needed to take the team to the next level in the Indian Premier League ( IPL )
With Sachin Tendulkar in the team,Jayasurya and Bravo could now play more freely for the Mumbai Indians cricket team in the Indian Premier League
Jayasurya and Bravo seem to have been holding themselves back in the recent matches for the Mumbai Indians, for fear that the team would fold up badly
With Sachin Tendulkar in the side, Jayasurya and Bravo can now play more freely and possibly provide the Mumbai Indians the firepower needed to supplement the recent good form of Ashish Nehra
It remains to be seen if Sachin Tendulkar ’s entry into the Mumbai Indians cricket team will them a champion side but Modi ’s Indian Premier League (IPL) now has another reason to celebrate.
Balaji bowls a hattrick for Chennai Super Kings Vs Kings X1 Punjab cricket team in the Indian Premier League,dont miss this video
Lakshmipathy Balaji has proved once again that there is more to Balaji than his sparkling smile that lighted up the entire Pakistan nation during the India Vs Pakistan cricket tour
Balaji breaks out of the wilderness by his incredible hattrick against the Kings X1 Punjab cricket team in the IPL
Balaji ’s hattrick was the final chapter of his bowling spell in the Indian Premier League match for the Chennai Super Kings Vs Kings X1 Punjab, but even earlier, Balaji showed that he is wily as ever , by bowling a series of disguised slower balls that often had the batsmen as perplexed as a penguin in the Sahara desert (sounds like a Siddhuism, doesnt it? )
Balaji hattrick video - the first hattrick of the Indian Premier League Twenty20 cricket tournament
This cool cricket video includes the Balaji ’s last over in the Chennai Super Kings Vs Kings X1 Punjab IPL cricket match- Balaji’s hattrick was of course the highlight of the entire Twenty20 cricket match
After the first couple of matches in the IPL, Shane Warne ’s Rajasthan Royals seemed like a cricket team that has already thrown in the towel.
Munaf Patel , the leading bowler of the Rajasthan Royals, criticized his team ’s composition and seemed to suggest that he was prepared to go back on his traditional injury leave again and leave his captain Shane Warne in the lurch
But Shane Warne , the Rajasthan Royals captain, had other plans- and the Rajasthan Royals are now the leading team in the IPL (Indian Premier League)
Shane Warne, the best captain the Australian cricket team never had
Shane Warne would have probably extended his career if he had been appointed Australian cricket captain, instead of Ricky Ponting
Ricky Ponting ’s appointment as Australian cricket captain in place of Shane Warne was the biggest blunder the Australian Cricket Board has made yet
Not only is the Australian cricket team looking more and more vulnerable in the absence of Shane Warne and Mcgrath, but Ricky Ponting is also leading a “pack of wild dogs” instead of professional cricketers
Shane Warne is the IPL ’s best captain and the best advertisement of the Indian Premier League’s success
