AUS vs WI

After a steady start, West Indies have lost two wickets in quick succession in their 276-run chase against Australia. Devon Smith edged a Peter Siddle delivery to Tim Paine behind the stumps to become the first WI wicket to fall. Andre Fletcher was the second one to head back as he could not make it back to the crease in time. James Hopes got the better of Chadwick Walton's stumps to claim the third Windies wicket.

Travis Dowlin edged Brett Lee's delivery to Paine to become the fourth wicket to fall. It took a breathtaking maiden ODI fifty by Mitchell Johnson to lead Australia to a respectable total of 275/8 against the West Indies, who triggered a dramatic collapse in the Aussie ranks. West Indies won the toss and decided to field first against Australia in the fifth match of the Champions Trophy Kemar Roach produced a splendid yorker to blow away Shane Watson's off-stump off the first delivery of the innings. West Indies draw first blood. Ricky Ponting and Paine mounted a solid fightback to steady the Aussie ship after losing Shane Watson early.

David Bernard's double pegged Australia further back. First Tim Paine and then Mike Hussey, Bernard has a lot to boast about today. Nikita Miller netted the big one when he had the Punter is in his bag before doing in Cameron White with a beauty. Roach then came back to send Fergusson on his way to the hut as Australia found themselves in a deep rot.

The India vs Pakistan cricket match today is estimated to attract several million viewers, and defeat is usually unacceptable for both teams. India should be inspired by the fact that they have never lost to Pakistan in an International Cricket Council (ICC) in the battle for the trophy, even with the team’s fair share of injuries. India and Pakistani cricket teams have played each other in non-test-playing nations such as Canada (Toronto) or the United Arab Emirates (Sharjah), but didn’t have the same number of viewers. Here are a few live streaming sites where you can watch the match, but they are slow…and frustrating. Sopcast requires the download of software before you can watch it. It may be easier to wait until it is over and watch the video of it online.

The match is scheduled to get underway within the next half hour, with the strength of both the Indian and Pakistan teams making for an exciting prospect. The match will take place at the Centurion, with Pakistan already having won their first ICC match against the West Indies. It will be India’s first game of the tournament, with a win giving them a great chance of making the semi-finals. We have found a working stream for the match, which you can watch live here.

India vs Pakistan live streaming Ind vs Pak live on Willow tv. Indian and Pakistani cricket teams are again slugging it out on the cricket pitch in Champions Trophy in South Africa. For them cricket is simply not a game to win and lose, here they come as enemies and cricket pitches are warfields for both the teams.

The two teams take it as war and do every bit to ensure that they are not to face the ignominy of losing a war. The pressure from around one and half billion people from both the countries is always very high on both teams to handle. They have to win the match at any cost to keep the honor of their nations. And whenever they lose they may be sure that their effigies will be burnt on Indian or Pakistani towns and villages by their own people who praised them and made them demigods. Over-zealous supporters even burn effigies of a losing team's players or even of individual players that had simply performed less than well.

A successful team and successful players could expect to be given hero status for months after the victory. Thus both the teams are under tremendous pressure to perform well and win which can make for a very exciting game. After the 1999 Kargil Conflict, much of the hatred transformed into a peaceful rivalry between the teams. They played each other in Australia in the 1999–2000 Triangular Series. The two teams met in the Super Sixes of the 1999 Cricket World Cup, where India won against Pakistan but lost against Australia and New Zealand. Pakistan went on to face Australia in the finals. In the 2003 Cricket World Cup, they again met each other in the Group league match where India achieved a memorable victory and later went on to appear in the finals, but lost to Australia.
