Read in News that BCCI is resuming cricketing ties with Pakistan since the government has given its nod. I don't think that it's a good idea to send our team to Pakistan to play matches. The situation is still very volatile there and it the country is very much unstable now and for the foreseeable future. It's dangerous to send our team there. Pak can come and play in India.
I remember india having an immediate tour to bangladesh after the 2007 wc just like the aussies currently....so the scenario is very similar to that of the indian team in 2007. Who knows this might indicate an aus turnaround just like india with ponting doing a sachin in the near future....
I believe the earliest BCCI has a vacancy is next June. adhu varaikkum namma pasanga continousA tourA? :shock:
idhu pOga, PakistanlAm anuppAdhIngappA...angE neraiya boochANdis :(
I seriously dont think international cricket will come back to pakistan in the near future....with regards to the indo-pak series i think it will either be played in india or in abu dhabi

Inzamam is especially strong when playing shots off his legs and has been considered to be amongst the best employers of the pull-shot in world cricket
The IPL runs till the end of May and India have three overseas tours in the eight months that follow, including high-profile series in England and Australia. India also have a full series home-and-away against West Indies, the Champions League Twenty20 and a home one-day series against England.

Notable batsmen/bowler rivalries in Test cricket. Eye openers are Sunil Gavaskar with Michael Holding and with another england bowler though he averages high, Atherton is a poor guy being out to Ambrose and walsh 17 and 15 times. Lara out to Mcgrath 15 times in 24 matches but he averages in the 40's per wicket :thumbsup:.
Some other rivalries
Murali/M boucher 12 times
CEL Ambrose/S waugh :bow: (My fav bowl/bat) from my fav era.
Imran Khan/Sunny G (11 times)but sunny averages 50.
Mark waugh averages 35 against Ambrose but 11 against Walsh :shock:
And oh yeah Bhajji - Ponting 10 times with his avg being 22.30 :P. Dei bhajji i dare u to make it 15.
Holding-Vengsarkar is famous too and Holding spews contempt for Vengy even today.
Dilscoop to lead SL
Tillakaratne Dilshan has been appointed Sri Lanka's captain for all three formats during the upcoming tour of England in May following Kumar Sangakkara's resignation from the post after the World Cup. Sri Lanka Cricket have not yet named a vice-captain to fill the role vacated by Mahela Jayawardene because "the prospective candidates are nursing injuries, and their availability for the forthcoming tour is still in question."
Dilshan's appointment ends the speculation over whether he, or 23-year-old allrounder Angelo Mathews, would be named as Sangakkara's immediate successor. In a recent interview with ESPNcricinfo, Sangakkara had backed either player to take over the captaincy.
Dilshan, 34, has previously led Sri Lanka in two Twenty20 internationals in 2008 and 2009, and also during a five-match ODI assignment in Zimbabwe in 2010

India tour will offer £20m lifeline for struggling clubs
The county season starts on Friday against the backdrop of increasing financial turmoil for the domestic game but relief will be partly provided by an Indian summer worth more than £20 million to English cricket.
The Telegraph understands that this summer’s tour by India, the global power of world cricket, will earn the England and Wales Cricket Board significant returns from their overseas broadcast deal with ESPN.
In 2007, the ECB signed a rights deal with the broadcaster in the region of £40 million. A large slice, 45 per cent, is linked directly to the tour by India, a cheque which will arrive at a time when the county game needs a financial boost.
When sponsorship and ticketing sales from the four Tests, five one-day internationals and a Twenty20 match are added, the visit by India will make 2011 the most lucrative in the history of English cricket.
The money underlines the power of Indian cricket and the reason why boards are keen to play as many matches as possible against the recently crowned world champions and the No1-ranked Test side.
To maximise income, over the next 18 months England will cram in 27 matches against India in all forms of cricket, touring the country twice
Lord’s is already sold out for four days of the first Test and Surrey have reported 80 per cent capacity already for the first three days of the fourth Test. The one-day international against India at the Kia Oval on Sept 9 sold out before Christmas. However, most of the ticket revenue and match sponsorship would be kept by the individual grounds.
“Perhaps we are now seeing the Ashes is not the only iconic series and Test series against India are taking their place at that table,” said Richard Gould, the Surrey chief executive. “Every Test series is important but perhaps now we are going to have a major event every two years rather than every four.”
Hosting political party conferences, weddings, event management and sharing developments with other community organisations will have as much bearing on the future of county cricket as visits by Sachin Tendulkar
The Indian tour will provide some relief with ESPN paying a large fee for overseas broadcast rights this summer as part of its four-year deal with the ECB. It will help to prop up county finances as the game prepares for a difficult 2012, when officials are warning that the London Olympics will hit cricket’s corporate income.

Law is associated with IPL. Maybe he is untouchable for IPL that's why he is complaining.

Will Law complain if he is given a IPL coaching stint with a few hundred thousand dollars? Fat chance.

Former Sri Lanka captain Hashan Tillakaratne has said he is ready to share information with the ICC to back his allegations regarding match-fixing in Sri Lanka since 1992.
"I made the statements [about match-fixing] neither to get political mileage nor to put anyone in an awkward position," said Tillakaratne, now a politician affiliated to the opposition party in Sri Lanka."I made the comments in good faith and I will share the information with the ICC. The exercise was meant to protect the game and the players we all love so much."
On Monday, Sri Lanka Cricket had termed Tillakaratne's decision to make the revelations after so many years as "strange". Tillakaratne's response was that he had kept quiet for so long since he feared for his life. "I stand by my comments about match fixing but can't reveal names for my safety," he said. "I made the statement in good faith and I will reveal the names to the ICC."
Meanwhile, Muttiah Muralitharan, who was Tillakaratne's team-mate for the most part of his career, joined Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara in asking Tillakaratne to prove his claims.
"I don't know why he has said this," Muralitharan told PTI. "If somebody is making such claims, he should first give enough proof to support them, otherwise someone can sue him. He has made allegations and only he is answerable for that. These are mere allegations which have not been proved yet."
Muralitharan said he had never been approached by match-fixers during his career. "In any case, I will tell this to ICC's anti-corruption unit only," he added. "There is a code and all the players follow that."
