Live Cricket Online - Day 3 Indian bowlers need to restrict England to a lower total

Live Cricket Online - Day 3


India Vs England live cricket online action continues as the 2nd test enters an interesting stage. Things look pretty balanced after two days. India had an upper hand till the last session, thanks to an excellent century from Dravid. But Stuart Broad's astonishing spell landed India in deep trouble and India could just manage a lead of 67 (once which looked might reach 125).


Stuart Broad registered his best bowling figures of 6/46 which also included a hat-trick. English crowd was delighted in the end, solely due to Broad's bowling. Dravid's tally of centuries now reaches 34 and he stands on the fourth position for highest number of test centuries.


Day 3 promises an enthralling cricket action when England would look ahead to score big and lead more. India would battle it out to bundle the England wickets quickly and then chase an achievable target.

Live Cricket Online - Day 2 India looking to register a good lead

Live Cricket Online Day 2

Will Trent Bridge test match write another story of a great comeback by this India team. Looks possible. All depends on how well the Indian batsmen score today. Indian team is already under scanner due to a loss in 1st test and injury hit squad. In absence of Gambhir and Zaheer; Indians are expected to struggle more in this test.

1st Day could be proportianly divided as 65 percent to India and 35 percent to England. Stuart Broad saved England innings by his half century or it was most likely that they were bundled out under 175. England reached 221 before being bowled out.

Indians should not feel complacent because this pitch has a tough record for the batsmen. It is almost similar to Sabina Park in West Indies where bowlers purely dominate the proceedings of cricket. The only formula that India has to adapt will be staying for a longer time on the pitch and keep the score card rolling. This would not only help them to accumalate runs but it would help them to frustrate the England bowlers.

India Vs England Live Streaming Cricket 2011

India Vs England Live Streaming


India Vs England Live Streaming continues as the second test has already begun at Trent Bridge. Indian bowlers have impressed to a better level in this test. India had clinched 8 wickets below a score of 150 by England. Broad scored a lightning half century to take England 221 final score. 


India had a shaky started as they lost Mukund earlier. Dravid and Laxman are playing in and we hope they dont' get complacent after that. India needs a couple of big partnership which can take them to a lead of atleast 150 runs.


After this India has to play two more test matches, 1 T20 and 5 ODIs. So the excitement would continue with another versions of this game followed by test series. Enjoy India Vs England live streaming online.

Live Cricket Online - India Vs England 2nd Test

Live Cricket Online 

India Vs England 2nd test has already begun at Trent Bridge. Again India won the toss and put England to bat in. The start has been very similar to the 1st test. England has begun the proceedings slowly with a cautious start. Similar to the 1st test, they have lost the wicket of Cook early.

Gambhir and Zaheer Khan won't be playing the 2nd test. This is a big blow for India. As a replacement, they have included Yuvraj Singh and Sreesanth. For England, Bresnan is included in place of Tremlett who suffered a hamstring injury. 

Dravid will open for India instead of Gambhir. Laxman can bat on no.3 and Yuvraj will be a part of middle order with Raina and Dhoni. Sachin will bat at no.4

This match would be interesting as England would play for a win as they serve a dream of becoming the top team in Test Cricket. Currently they are lagging behind few points from India who currently holds the top spot in ICC Test Rankings.

Live Cricket Online - Day 5 India aims to save the match

Live Cricket Online - Day 5



With a 162 runs stand between Prior and Broad, India was set a daunting target of 458. With the likes of Dravid and Laxman, India managed 80 for 1 at stumps on day 4. Now the stage is set. In a maximum quota of 98 overs, England needs 9 wickets to win. India needs another 378 runs to win. But it is more likely that India will play for a draw. 


The onus depends on two great batsmen who have saved India many a times in the past. They are none other than Dravid and Laxman. A pure test of how patiently Indian batsmen head from here and to what extent they can't fight the battle of survival.


Ishant Sharma and Matt Prior were two stars for day 4. Sharma was brilliant with his line and length and he trouble England batsmen to the max. Similarly when Prior walked in, England were 60 odd for 5 wickets. He scored a ton and anchored England innings to a big lead. Let us see who would be the stars for day 5 where England would strive for a win and India would strive for a draw!

Live Cricket Online - Day 4 England aims to pile up runs

Live Cricket Online - Day 4

As we enter Day 4 of 1st test between India and England, speculations are coming to an end. At this juncture, England certainly looks favourite to win this match. The only other possible result here could be a draw. Things can't be simpler than this for England. With a big lead already in pocket and two more days to go, England can afford to play another 2 sessions and quickly grab as many runs as possible.


England should look at a total of 350 to put India bat in. A bowling of 15 odd overs today in the last session would be good enough to put tons of pressure on Indian batting line up. Before that things also depend on how good Indians would bowl to stop the runs flow.


Day 3 should be completely dedicated to the heroics of Rahul Dravid. Quick bowlers? Overcast conditions? Pressure of 474 runs? Movement in the air? Nothing hampers his concentrations. He stood tall unbreached like a Wall! He was unbeaten on a century where other Indian batsmen couldn't survive. His efforts assisted India to avoid the follow on.

Live Cricket Online - Day 3 India looks for big partnerships

Live Cricket Online - Day 3

In the last post we mentioned India should not allow England to capitalise. Yes Praveen Kumar tried his best and also grabbed 5 important wickets. But Kevin Pietersen didn't allow Indian bowlers to settle down. He smashed a brilliant double century to take England to 474! It is now the turn of Indian batsmen to showcase similar feat.


Cricket fans are anticipating a ton from Sachin which would also be his 100th International century. We all know that he has rewritten record books with his never ending feats in cricket. Everything looks scripted for him as he would probably bat today for another milestone. 


Apart from Sachin, other stars like Dravid, Gambhir, Laxman, Raina, etc would love to settle down and score big. India badly need good partnerships to anchor innings towards a matching total of 474. Certainly the trio of England viz. Tremlett, Anderson and Broad won't allow this cause but Indian batsmen need to resist.


Live cricket online udpates continue as Day 3 at Lord's brings another enthralling day of cricket.

Live Cricket Online - Day 2 - India needs to restrict England before they capitalise

Live Cricket Online - India Vs England Day 2

Mend the broken before its too late! Indians already lost couple of chances yesterday and to add to it Zaheer may not bowl today. Things aren't going the easier way for India. Apart from that, slowly but steadily England is piling up runs on the board.


Day 2, MS Dhoni has been impressive with his field settings. But he needs good amount of support from his bowlers. A sort of killer instinct is obligatory to put extra pressure of Pietersen, Bell and company. First session -  India clinched the wicket of Trott. And things should keep moving the same way.


England would be looking for a big score without any hurry. The plan would be to put pressure on Indian strong batting line up with a big score through a strict bowling performance by Anderson, Broad, Swann and others. Speculations can be many! Only live cricket online action can reveal the answers to our speculations. Stay tuned and enjoy some great cricket action from Lord's.

Live Cricket Online

After the conclusion of West Indies tour, now India heads towards England. The tour begins with a 3 day match against Somerset. This will be followed by 4 test matches, 1 T20 and 5 ODIs. The first test will be played at the home of cricket; the Lord's which is also the 2000th test match. Eyes would be set on Sachin Tendulkar who has an opportunity to score his 100th ton here.

The big names were missing in the West Indies tour which included Sehwag, Sachin, Gambhir, Yuvraj, Zaheer, etc. They all make a roaring comeback in the tour to England. Although Sehwag isn't completely fit but he will play from the second or the third test. It all depends on his fitness. Meanwhile all the other big names are fit now and all set to play.

This is how the Indian test squad looks:-

Watch Live Cricket Online - India looks for a win on final day of final test

Live Cricket Online - Ind Vs WI

After India posted a lead of 140 plus, West Indies wickets again tumbled against the disciplined bowling attack of India. Then came Chanderpaul and the debutant Kirk Edwards to the rescue. Edwards hit a ton on his debut as he scored 110 before falling to Harbhajan Singh.

Chanderpaul stays unbeaten with 73 at the start of day 5. West Indies would begin day 5 with 224 runs on scorecard. They lead by 81 runs but they have already lost 6 wickets. If India could manage to clean up the remaining batsmen in 50 odd runs, then they certainly eye a win here.

After losing more than 100 overs due to rain, day 3 and 4 have observed full day's play. So hopefully if we get a full day's play today, a result looks certain. By the way something to cheer about for Harbhajan as he took 3 wickets at the end of day 4. On day 5 he would expect a couple more.

Live Cricket Online - India Vs West Indies 3rd Test


Third test begins between India and West Indies. This test gives an opportunity for both the teams to play for pride. In the long history of test cricket, India has won only two test series in India with a margin of 1-0. This tour gives them an opportunity to seal the series 2-0. Also this could be India's first tour of West Indies which will end in a ODI as well as Test series win.

West Indies has a glorious past of cricket. They are competing against the current test champions. They will play for pride to display the best they have in terms of cricket and level the series. To do this they have to overcome their batting woes. Bowling has been up to the mark.

Concerns for India are the opening batsmen. But they have solutions as well. Murali and Mukund can be replaced by Parthiv Patel and Badrinath. Similarly Mithun as a bowler can be replaced by Munaf looking at the bouncy track of Dominica.
