3rd ODI: India beat SA in a cliffhanger

Cape Town: A burst of powerful hitting by Yusuf Pathan spurred India to a thrilling two-wicket win in the third one-day international against South Africa at Newlands on Tuesday.

Chasing a target of 221, India were struggling at 93 for five before Pathan launched a savage assault against South African off-spinners Johan Botha and JP Duminy.

On a pitch where most batsmen found it difficult to play positive strokes, Pathan, making his first appearance in the series, struck 59 off 50 balls as India took a 2-1 lead in the five-match series.

Pathan and Suresh Raina (37) put on 75 for the sixth wicket but both were out in quick succession to set up a tense finish.

Fast bowler Morne Morkel took three for 26 and fellow paceman Dale Steyn claimed two for 31 but could not stop India from getting home with ten balls to spare. Harbhajan Singh made a crucial 23 not out, including two sixes.

The match changed dramatically in the 28th over of the Indian innings when Pathan, on six, edged Botha for a four between wicketkeeper AB de Villiers and captain Graeme Smith at slip.

Pathan swept the next delivery and Lonwabo Tsotsobe, running in from the boundary to try to take a catch, misjudged the ball and it went for another four.

In the next over from Duminy, Pathan again swept in the air and Morkel also misjudged the ball in contemplating a catch and another boundary was the result.

Then Pathan struck three sixes off four balls from Botha, all sailing over a fielder at deep mid-wicket.

On an untypical Newlands pitch, South Africa struggled to 220 all out with newcomer Francois 'Faf' du Plessis and JP Duminy putting on 110 as they rescued a floundering innings.

Du Plessis made 60 and Duminy 52 on a pitch of inconsistent pace and bounce.

The pair came together with their side in trouble at 90 for four in the 24th over.

They put on 110 off 129 balls before Du Plessis slipped as he went down the wicket to attack Munaf Patel and sliced a catch to cover.

Du Plessis, 26, a former schoolboy teammate of De Villiers, who has been signed to play for Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League, made his runs off 78 balls.

He showed composure at the crease and the only sign of nerves came when he needed treatment for cramps in his forearm.

Du Plessis was out in the first over of the batting powerplay, which was taken in the 45th over, and as in the second international in Johannesburg, the lifting of fielding restrictions heralded a flurry of wickets.

Duminy was bowled in the next over and the innings folded rapidly, with the last six wickets falling for 20 runs.

Zaheer Khan, with three for 43, and Singh led a superb Indian bowling performance, which was backed up by good fielding.

Khan repeatedly beat South African captain Graeme Smith with swing and movement off the pitch, although Smith survived to make a laboured 43 off 79 balls before falling to Harbhajan's off-spin.

Khan also took a spectacular diving catch in the outfield to dismiss De Villiers.

Harbhajan mesmerised the batsmen, taking two for 23 in nine overs, helped by two diving slip catches by Virat Kohli.

Dhoni sees finisher's role for Yusuf Pathan

Cape Town: Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni lauded Yusuf Pathan for his blistering innings and said with more experience the dashing all-rounder can become a good match-finishing batsman for the country.

Pathan produced a terrific 50-ball 59 run innings in the third ODI to help India chase South Africa's total of 220 with 10 balls to spare after being precariously placed at 93 for five at one stage.

"He (Pathan) played his natural game. I want him to continue playing the kind of cricket he plays. As he gets more experience he will turn into a match-finishing batsman," Dhoni said.

"It was good effort from the batsmen. The lower middle-order also played well. But Pathan was superb," Dhoni said.

Dhoni also praised his pace bowlers for their superb show during the death overs of the South African innings.

"The best thing today was our powerplay and death bowling," the Indian skipper said.

Man-of-the-match Pathan said he was just playing his natural game and it put pressure on the South African bowlers.

"It's a good win for us. I was just looking to hit the balls which were in my areas. If you let the bowler know you can play the shots, you will play the shots and he will stay under pressure," Yusuf said.

"I went in thinking that I will play my shots but won't be in any hurry to play those shots. I will wait for the balls in my area and I was successful in doing that."

Pathan, who hit six fours and three sixes, said it was a bouncy pitch but he played his shots to put the opponent on to the back foot.

"There was bounce in the pitch. But I knew if I played a few shots, things would get easier. If you hit the bowlers, the opposition gets on to the back foot. A lot of things run through the captain's mind, and you benefit from that," he added.

The Baroda batsman said with this win, South Africa will be under pressure to bounce back into the five-match One-day series.

"Our team is full of confidence right now," Pathan said.

"South Africa will obviously be under pressure because they have lost two matches, and we have done better in pressure situation. We made a comeback in the previous game and here too. So the pressure will be on them."

Proteas thump India by 135 runs in Durban ODI

Durban: A clinical performance from South Africa saw the home team decimate Team India by a whooping margin of 135 runs under lights to take 1-0 lead in the five-match series here at the Kingsmead stadium.

Except for Virat Kohli, who played a promising knock of 54, and Suresh Raina (32), who fought till end with some exciting strokes, all the Indian batsmen fell like a pack of cards against lethal swing and bounce from South African speed-merchants and folded up for 154 runs in 35.4 overs to embrace one of the worst ODI defeats in recent times.

Apart from one freaky run-out, the pace quartet of Steyn, Tsotsobe, Morkel and Parnell accounted for all the damage with Lonwabo Tsotsobe leading the match honours and winning well deserved ‘Man of the Match award’ with superb bowling figures of 4 wickets for 31 runs.

Set up a stiff target of 289 runs to chase, India made a horrific start to their innings as South African bowlers rattled Indian top-order early to sense an early upset in the Indian camp.

India lost both openers- Murali Vijay and Sachin Tendulkar- in quick succession as the duo was not able to negate South African pace attack and fell down cheaply against quality swing and bounce from South African speedsters.

Vijay was first to depart during Indian chase as the batsman was trapped plumb in front of wickets in the first over off a fiery Dale Steyn delivery which kept low and looked like crashing into middle stump.

Tsotsobe then hurled short-pitch stuffs to Tendulkar, bowling an awkward angle and was finally rewarded for his hard-work as Tendulkar top-edged a climbing delivery towards fine-leg where Steyn took a well-judged catch to end Tendulkar’s innings.

With two wickets down for just 13 runs, youngsters Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli tried to rebuild Indian innings but with umpire Simon Taufel making a judgment error and ruling Rohit out off an away moving delivery from Morne Morkel, India slid more deep with 41/3 on board. Delighted with wicket ‘gift’, Morne then removed Yuvraj Singh in the same over as the left-hander edged the ball to second slip after facing just four balls.

After Yuvraj’s dismissal, Kohli and skipper MS Dhoni added valuable 52 runs for the fifth wicket and tried hard to steer India from difficulty but just when the duo started to play big shots, hard luck robbed India as a straight drive from Kohli hit bowlers’ palm and disturbed non-striker stumps where Dhoni was caught short of his crease.

Dhoni’s departure brought Suresh Raina on the crease and with only last recognized batting pair in the middle and mountain like target to chase, curtains were drawn on Indian victory much before than anticipated.

Kohli and Raina added 33 runs for the sixth wicket but with players taking the batting powerplay in 29th over, Kohli perished in a desperate attempt to shoot up the scoring rate.

With no resistance from lower-order, India was all-out for 154 runs in just under 160 minutes of play.

Earlier, riding on the half-centuries from AB De Villiers, JP Duminy and Hashim Amla, South Africa made 289/9 and set India a stiff target of 290 runs to chase under bowling-friendly conditions.

At a time when India looked like gaining upper-hand by taking top three South African wickets for 82 runs in the 14th over, Duminy and De Villiers came together in dodgy circumstances and showed a lot of enterprise as they put on a critical 131-run stand for the fourth wicket which set the foundation of a competitive first inning score by home team.

Indian speedster Ashish Nehra though accounted for the first South African dismissal but could not repeat his heroics of 2003 at this ground and proved to be the most expensive bowler, leaking 61 runs in six overs.

Winning the toss and choosing to bat, South Africa made a quick start with openers Graeme Smith and Amla stroking boundaries and looting 14 runs in second over of the match but Nehra came back strong as he dismissed Smith to put an instant break on initial aggression shown by Proteas.

Smith (11) scored two boundaries but looked bit uncomfortable during his stay and was finally done in by short of length ball, as he came down the track and attempted an ugly shot to give an easy catch to Rohit Sharma at slip who didn’t made any mistake in pouching the top-edge.

Unperturbed by Graeme Smith’s dismissal early, Amla played in slambang style and looked like making amends for his failure in only T20, as he stroked eight powerful boundaries in just 36 balls to provide early impetus to South African innings.

Amla (50) looked in superb touch and played strokes in all parts of the ground but in a bid to dictate terms, he lost his cool and fell immediately after scoring his 11th ODI fifty.

Munaf Patel, who came in as first change after Nehra went for plenty of runs, made immediate impact as he first ended Colin Ingram’s miserable stay on the crease and then trapped big fish Amla to put India in commanding position early in the match.

Ingram, who came in to bat after Smith’s dismissal, wasted 23 balls for his individual score of 5 runs and got out after he tried to break the shackles and paid the price for a mistimed hit.

Munaf then dismissed dangerous Amla as he forced the batsman to play a swat-loft over mid-on where Harbhajan ran back and took a difficult catch over his shoulder to bring Amla’s sparkling knock to an end.

With three top-order wickets down, India looked like gaining an upper-hand but a counter-attacking knock from both De Villiers (76) and then Duminy (73) foiled Indian plans to create pressure.

Seeing both batsmen in good form, South Africa took their batting powerplay early in 27th over and made full use of the field restrictions as the duo added 45 runs in five overs without loss of a wicket as the fourth-wicket partnership allowed South Africa`s thin lower middle order to play it safe and just carry on the momentum to run up a strong score.

With all main bowlers going for plenty of runs, Dhoni turned-up to his part-time options and the bold move paid off as Rohit Sharma foxed De Villiers with a slower delivery, as the batsman set himself up for the pull but played straight to Harbhajan at deep midwicket.

Gaining confidence with Rohit’s success, Dhoni asked Suresh Raina to roll over his arm and Raina too didn’t disappointed his captain as he clean bowled David Miller to restrict South African progress.

Rohit then picked up crucial wicket of Duminy as India did well to contain South Africa under 300 runs in late part of their innings.

Zaheer Khan delivered a near perfect 50th over, as he took two wickets for five runs, as South African innings finished for 289/9 in the allotted 50 overs.

Ind-SA: SA finish with 289/9 in 1st ODI

Durban: Part-timers Rohit Sharma and Suresh Raina helped India claw their way back in the first ODI against South Africa as the hosts once threatened to go well past 300 but eventually finished with 289 at the Kingsmead Durban.

Earlier, South African captain Smith won the toss and elected to bat.

The Proteas left out Faf du Plessis, Imran Tahir and Robin Peterson while Piyush Chawla, Ravichandran Ashwin and S Sreesanth are the ones to miss out for the Indians.

India will to want to rectify their poor record against the Proteas when it comes to playing in South Africa, having won 3 and lost 16.

India were thumped 4-0 in the one day series on their last tour of South Africa in 2006-07.

Teams:

India: S Tendulkar, M Vijay, V Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, R Sharma, S Raina, MS Dhoni (capt), M Patel, Harbhajan Singh, A Nehra, Z Khan

South Africa: G Smith (capt), H Amla, C Ingram, AB de Villiers, JP Duminy, D Miller, J Botha, W Parnell, L Tsotsobe, M Morkel, D Steyn

Clinical India thrash South Africa by 21 runs

Durban: Indian came up with an all-round performance against South Africa in the one-off Twenty20 match to register a comprehensive 21-run victory over the hosts despite a valiant effort by Proteas wicketkeeper-batsman Morne van Wyk, who scored a dazzling 67.

Defending a tricky total of 168/6, Indian pacers went for too many runs in the initial overs despite picking up a couple of wickets. Van Wyk gave South African innings the much needed impetus as he plundered runs at will. His 39-ball stay at the crease entertained the Durban crowd as he slammed 5 fours and an equal number of sixes.

But once he got out, South Africa kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Their downfall started as soon as the Indian spinners took over the bowling duty from the pacers.

Yusuf Pathan (3/22), Yuvraj Singh (1/20), Ravichandran Ashwin (1/33) bowled cheaply as well as picked up vital wickets in the middle overs which derailed the Proteas innings. Though Munaf Patel gave away to many runs, Ashish Nehra (2/22) bowled really well to guide India to a clinical win.

Rohit Sharma slammed a brilliant quick-fire half-century before Suresh Raina blasted 41 to guide India to a challenging 168/6 in the on-off Twenty20 International against South Africa here on Sunday.

Sharma, who was bought by Indian Premier League team Mumbai Indians by a whopping amount yesterday, justified his worth by playing a brutal knock of 53 off just 34 balls. He took all the Proteas bowlers to the cleaners, hammering 5 fours and 2 sixes during his entertaining knock.

After his departure, India lost three quick wickets which temporarily derailed their innings but it was ever-dependable Suresh Raina who kept the Indian innings on track and helped the tourists post a competitive total in the end. Raina’s 23-ball 41 consisted of two fours and three huge sixes.

Earlier, winning the toss, India were off to a flyer as they crossed the 50-run mark in the 6th over of the innings.

But they lost both the openers in quick succession. Despite losing them, India raced past the 100-run mark in the 11th over of the innings.

Rohit Sharma departed for 53 when he tried to hit J P Duminy out of the park, holing out to Ntini at long-on.

Immediately after his wicket, Yuvraj Singh was ran-out due to a terrible mix-up with Yusuf Pathan for 12. Yusuf Pathan also did not last long as he was bowled by Juan Theron for only 6.

India started the match without star players Sachin Tendulkar, Zaheer Khan, Harbhajan Singh and S Sreesanth.

India continue to be Number 1 in ICC Test rankings

Dubai: India continued to dominate the ICC Test Championship table, holding on to the top spot in the latest rankings issued on Friday despite losing a rating point after the drawn three-match series against South Africa.

India lead South Africa by 11 ratings with 128 ratings points, the ICC said in a statement here.

Third-placed England have narrowed the gap with South Africa after winning the Ashes 3-1. England, which entered the Ashes series on 112 ratings points, have jumped to 115 ratings

points and Andrew Strauss’s side now trails Graeme Smith’s men by just two ratings points.

The Proteas, which started against India on 116 ratings points, have gained one ratings point and moved to 117 ratings points following the one-all draw against India.

For Australia, the news is not so good and their first Ashes defeat in 24 years on home soil has resulted in a drop to fifth on the table.

The defeat has cost Australia three ratings points, putting them two points behind Sri Lanka on 107.

England crush Australia to take Ashes series

Sydney: Dominant England claimed their first Ashes series in Australia for 24 years with their third innings victory over the home team in the final Sydney Test.

England on Friday wrapped up an innings and 83-run victory early on the last day after victory was assured when they had Australia seven wickets down on Thursday's close.

It was England's first series victory Down Under since Mike Gatting's team beat Australia 2-1 in 1986-87.

The tourists posted their highest-ever score in Australia on 644 and dismissed the hapless hosts for 280 and 281.

It was probably England's most comprehensive performance of the series with Alastair Cook (189), Matt Prior (118) and Ian Bell (115) all claiming centuries in an overpowering first innings lasting 177.5 overs and 758 minutes.

Their bowlers, led by leading series wicket-taker James Anderson, exposed the gulf between the two attacks by dismissing Australia cheaply again.

Steven Smith and Peter Siddle showed some fight with an 86-run eighth-wicket partnership before Siddle holed out to Anderson on the square leg boundary off Graeme Swann for 43 off 65 balls.

Ben Hilfenhaus fell to Anderson caught behind for seven and debutant Michael Beer was the last Australian wicket to fall, bowled by Chris Tremlett for two.

Smith remained unbeaten on 54 in 132 minutes.

England were a potent force during the series, overpowering Australia in huge wins in Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney, with the Australians winning the third Perth Test. The opening Brisbane Test was drawn.

Alastair Cook was the series topscorer with 766 at 127.66, second only to Wally Hammond's 905 in 1928-29 for most runs for England in a series in Australia.

Anderson finished the series with 24 wickets, the most by any England bowler since Frank Tyson took 28 in 1954-5 and wicketkeeper Matt Prior took 23 catches in the series.

England were the last team to beat Australia at the SCG in 2003 when Andy Caddick claimed 7-94 after Michael Vaughan had amassed 183 in the second innings to pull off a massive 225-run triumph.

England have now won 22 times in Sydney in 54 Tests.

The Ashes humiliation was Australia's sixth defeat in their last eight Tests and comes at a time of major upheaval in all facets of the Australian game.

Michael Clarke stood in for injured skipper Ricky Ponting for the Sydney Test and came away with a similar result.

Only Mike Hussey with 570 runs and two centuries at 63.33 emerged with his reputation intact as Ponting (113 runs at 16) and Clarke (193 at 21.44) failed miserably with the bat.

Australia's leading contemporary wicket-taker Mitchell Johnson also had an under-performing series -- taking 15 wickets at an expensive 36.93.

Australia's diabolical performance is expected to lead to an inquest with the administrators, selectors, coaches and players under scrutiny amid widespread public disenchantment.

Clarke retires from T20 internationals

Sydney: Michael Clarke announced his retirement from international Twenty20 cricket in the fallout from Australia's Ashes humiliation against England on Friday.

Clarke, standing in for injured skipper Ricky Ponting, presided over an Australian team thrashed by an innings and 83 runs in the final Sydney Test and made the announcement during his post-match press conference.

Cameron White was later named captain of Australia's side for their two T20 games against England next week, with wicketkeeper Tim Paine his deputy.

It was a personal series failure by one of Australia's senior Test batsmen, scoring just 193 runs at 21.44 in nine innings against the dominant English bowling attack.

"I'm retiring from international Twenty20 cricket," Clarke said.

"I guess, looking back on this series, my Test cricket isn't where I want it at the moment.

"This gives me the opportunity to focus wholly and solely on Test cricket and one-day internationals and to use that time to play more domestic or first-class cricket for NSW (New South Wales) and become a better Test player.

"For me, I've always said Test cricket is the ultimate for me. This gives me that opportunity."

Clarke admitted that even as skipper he has struggled in the T20 format of the game, scoring just 419 runs in 23 innings at 22.05.

"Obviously, my T20 performances haven't been that great, which made the decision that much easier," he said.

"As vice captain, my focus is to do whatever I can to help this Test team turn it around."

Clarke refused to blame the explosive scoring demands of T20 cricket on his Test form slump.

"I'm not going to blame anyone or anything," he said. "I think T20 cricket in general is great for this game.

"It's very individual. I'm certain players can play all three forms of the game. I'm probably not one of them.

"I've worked out that for me to be the best Test cricketer I can be, and the best one-day cricketer I can be, I need to focus wholly and solely on those two forms."
