India concludes series with a whitewash

Indian team ferociously came as a nightmare for the Australian line up in the shortest format.

They took an unassailable lead of 2-0 at Melbourne in the three-match T20I series but what happened at Sydney was simply spectacular.

Australians were playing to save their pride where India were looking to cap off the tour with a whitewash.

On a batting paradise the Australian skipper Shane Watson decided to have bat first after wiining the toss.

The toss was though the only thing that went in Australia's favor.

India creates history at MCG

A mind boggling performance from team India helped them clinch another T20I win and 3rd on the
trot. After a roller-coaster ODI series and eventually losing the limited overs matches, the Men in Blue made certain changes with the side in the T20I seris.

Shivnarine Chanderpaul bids adieu

The batsman with the unorthodox batting stance in World cricket Shivnarine Chanderpaul has called it a day from all forms of the game. The long handle holder has finished his cricketing innings as the second highest Test run-getter for West Indies. He is just behind  Brian Lara who has a lead of 86 runs when it comes to over all comparison. He scored 30 Test tons in his entire cricketing span and scored a massive 11,867 runs.

Hanif Mohammad's lazy save

Pakistan veteran willow holder played what was one of the most important and slow innings. He saved a match against West Indies in Barbados. Mohammad batted for 970 minutes (that's over 16 hours, or nearly 11 football matches). He scored a mammoth 337 to save the encounter. In Hanif's match, Pakistan had followed on, the small matter of 473 runs behind - they made 657 for 8 from a mere 319 overs.

Bhagwat Subramanya Chandrasekhar

Chandrasekhar was born in 1945 in Mysore, where he had his primary education. He developed an early interest in cricket watching the playing styles of Australian leg spinner Richie Benaud. An attack of polio at the age of six left his right arm withered. At the age of 10, his hand had recovered and Chandrasekhar started playing cricket.

Arthur Morris

An Invincible run-machine is born. At the age of 18 Arthur Morris was the first man to make a century in both innings of his first-class debut, and so it wasn't a great surprise that he made three hundreds in his first four Tests against England in 1946-47. He also hammered a glorious 182 when the Aussie Invincibles chased 404 for 3 to beat England at Headingley in 1948, adding 301 with Don Bradman. But he was vulnerable to Alec Bedser, who dismissed him 18 times, a Test record until Glenn McGrath went one better with Mike Atherton in 2001.
