India Vs West Indies Live Streaming - Day 2 - 1st Test

Cricket Nirvana Live

Things look pretty balance right now as we enter the 2nd day of 1st test match. Indian batsmen couldn't survive the uneven bounce in the initial overs and surrendered to a position where they were 85 for 6. Then came a counter attack worth watch. Raina and Harbhajan batted as if they are batting in a one day match. With almost run a ball they both added more than 140 runs to the Indian score card. Ultimately India was bowled out for 246 which looked much better than 85 for 6.


If we analyse the Indian innings we can make out that a combination of solidity and aggression can earn batsmen lot of runs on this wicket. Otherwise it would be the bowlers who would dominate. Indian bowlers would love to make the best out of this pitch. If they can bowl out West Indies somewhere close to the Indian total, job is well done!


West Indies batting looked over cautious as they scored only 34 runs from 20 overs losing a wicket. This could be a plus point for India's perspective. Stay tuned as another day of cricket begins today to treat all the cricket fans.

India Vs West Indies 5th ODI Live - India can make it 4-1

India Vs West Indies Live - 5th ODI


Whitewash is not in sight now. But a 4-1 victory is possible for India. Overall performance of the team has been exceptionally well minus the last ODI where India suffered a humiliating 103 runs defeat. Suresh Raina and Badrinath along with Yusuf Pathan have to click in this match because overall they have not been impressive on this tour. If we talk about Kohli, Patel or Sharma; they have shown a brilliance in their batting which has helped India win matches. Not to forget the valuable contribution from Munaf Patel, Mishra, Harbhajan and Praveen Kumar.


The positives for West Indies in this match would be the pitch of Sabina Park which supports the pacers. At the same time Barath and Rampaul are recalled for this match. This is another good news for them. The bad news for the team is that Chris Gayle still stays unconsidered to play for the team.


A win here for either of the teams would add momentum for them into the test series which begins very soon. The first test will be played at the same venue.

India looks for another win today against West Indies - 4th ODI Live

India Vs West Indies 4th ODI Live

India's tour to West Indies started with speculations that will this second string team perform good enough to win the series. Until now this team full of youngsters have not let the Indian fans down. After the T20 match, they have won three ODI matches on the trot. Last match swinged either ways but ultimately India clinched that one to clinch the series as well.


Suresh Raina as a captain has done a good job. But he won't be still satisfied with his batting performance. Batting is his speciality and he has yet to make a mark with his batting in this tour. He would love to lead from the front with his speciality. Who knows may be today is his day! Strokeplay from Parthiv, Kohli and Sharma has been a delight to watch so far. 


West Indies cricket has been plagued with lot of problems. Solutions seem to be out of sight. Still there isn't a mutual conclusion over Chris Gayle's issue. Some weird selection has badly affected the team's performance. The playing eleven has to give their best and play for pride, as the series is already lost but every win would be a confidence booster.

India Vs West Indies 3rd ODI - An opportunity for India to win the series today

Ind Vs WI Cricket Live

A golden opportunity for the unbeatable Indian team on this tour to clinch the series here. Leading 2-0 in a 5 match series gives India an upper hand. Just one more win and the series is bagged by India. This scenario makes today's match a vital one for the West Indies. They have to bounce back to showcase some kind of resistance against a second string Indian team.


West Indies improved from their 214 in first ODI to 240 in the second ODI. But both the targets were successfully chased by India without any major issue. And above all Indian runs didn't come from one or two contributors. These runs came equally from all the top order batsmen. This is a positive sign for Indian team.


Chris Gayle still remains unconsidered for the series. Meanwhile the board has allowed Dwayne Bravo to take a break. Ravi Rampaul was impressive with his bowling but he will be rested to sneak in Kemar Roach. Indian bowling deparment has clicked on time with Munaf Patel, Harbhajan, Praveen Kumar and company.


Overall a nice match on hands where the visitors will play to seal the series and the home team will strive harder to stay live in the series.

India takes on West Indies in 1st ODI

India Vs West Indies Live - 1st ODI

Showtime! India begins their first ODI series as World Champions today. That is an added responsibility now to continue being the World Champs by winning every series they play on. Dominance in ODI cricket for next few years will prove the worth. Although the current team will miss the services of Sachin, Dhoni, Sehwag, Gambhir, Zaheer and Yuvraj; but the youngsters are good enough to clinch wins in West Indies.

1st T20 showcased the failure of top order but at the same time proved that India has a strong bench strength. Badrinath in particular was good with his bat. India has to better their performance today if they have to win. The reason being simple - Comeback of Pollard, Bravo and Sarwan in the host team.

Pollard and Bravo can contribute with both bat and ball. West Indies are always wary of slow bowling but Sarwan solves that problem to an extent. India may replace Ashwin with Ishant Sharma if the track for today is bouncy rather than low and slow.

With the likes of Raina, Badrinath, Kohli, Harbhajan, Sharma; India looks favourites but West Indies can't be written off on their home ground with equally matched and talented youngsters in their team.

India Vs West Indies Live T20 - Cricket Nirvana

Ind Vs WI T20 Live

India Vs West Indies series begins today with a T20 match. This would be face off of youngsters from both the teams. Suresh Raina will lead the Indian team and he is excited about his role which is full of responsibilities. 


In the absence of senior players like Sachin, Dhoni, Sehwag, Yuvraj, Gambhir, Zaheer, etc; the youngsters are all eager with cylinders full to get in and give their best. This would be an ideal situation to examine the bench strength of the Indian team.


This is the first time Indian team would be featuring in an international match after being coronated as World Champions in ICC World Cup 2011. T20 match will be followed by 5 ODI matches and 3 Test matches.
