BEFORE departing for India, I had friends and family passing on travel tips, advice and personal experiences. Some of it good, and some of it worrying. As this was my first trip overseas, I needed to take it all in. But with any challenge in life, I like to have an open heart, clear head and positive attitude. This was not just a holiday abroad, this was a job and nobody could prepare me to become a cricket-loving, cheerleading, IPL girl but me!Pakistan won by 205 runsPakistan : 317/ 7

We all expected tat India would write a histroy in South Africa by winnning this ODI series, but our batsmen lost the track in the last match exept our Freaking hillarious awsome Yousuf patel. If you check SA tour indians perfomed great piece cricket & giving a huge confidence atleast for the fans for the coming WC since its goig to conduct in our land.

V V S Laxman battled severe back pain to single-handedly take India to a memorable victory over Australia with a gritty unbeaten 73 in a nail-biting first cricket Test on Tuesday in Mohali.
Laxman, who reserved his best for the Australians, played almost a lone hand in India's run chase of 216 as his experienced colleagues fell to poor shot selection and umpiring error as he guided India to one of its most memorable Test victories.
Sachin Tendulkar was the second highest Indian scorer with 38 while young Ishant Sharma contributed an invaluable 31 in the Test which went down the wire.
With the victory, India took an unassailable 1-0 lead in the series and retained the Border Gavaskar Trophy with their seventh highest run chase in history.
England began their Champions Trophy campaign with a six-wicket triumph over Group B rivals Sri Lanka on Friday. Chasing Sri Lanka's 212 all out in 47.3 overs, England eased to 213 for four off 45 thanks to an unbeaten 62 in 83 balls from Eoin Morgan.
England slipped to 19 for two before Paul Collingwood launched a counter-attack, dominating a 63-run partnership with Owais Shah.Collingwood breezed to 46 off 51 balls with five fours and three sixes before chopping a delivery from fast bowler Lasith Malinga on to his stumps.
His dismissal brought Morgan to the crease and he and Shah combined for a 76-run stand off 94 balls.Shah was then caught by keeper Kumar Sangakkara off spinner Muttiah Muralitharan for a patient 44.
COMPETITIVE TOTAL
The left-handed Morgan went on to reach his half-century with his fifth boundary.
"We did not pick up wickets quickly enough and the Collingwood-Shah partnership was important to England," said Sri Lanka skipper Sangakkara.
"I thought Morgan understood his job very well and did the job required for his side. He played the anchor role that saw them through."
Earlier, half-centuries from Thilina Kandamby and Angelo Mathews helped Sri Lanka post a competitive total after slumping to 17 for four after being put in to bat.
Kandamby top-scored with 53 before being run out while Mathews chipped in with 52 as the pair combined for a sixth-wicket stand of 82.
Mathews was lucky on 51 when he appeared to have been run out after colliding with England seamer Graham Onions.
Although he was initially given out, Strauss called the batsman back.
Fast bowler James Anderson swung the new ball prodigiously, taking two for 11 in his opening seven overs before finishing with three for 20. All-rounder Stuart Broad also took three for 49.
The result leaves the group evenly poised with Sri Lanka, South Africa and England having won one game each.
On Sunday, England play hosts South Africa in Centurion while Sri Lanka meet New Zealand in Johannesburg.
